Not only did people come, but they also brought gifts, not much, only a big box.

Phil gasped as he opened the gift box, which contained an oval orb.

This is a standard ball, brownish-red in color, somewhat similar in appearance to rugby balls on Earth, but with a larger volume.

Phil took a closer look, and there was a row of crooked white fonts on top of the sphere, which was the continental lingua franca of handwriting, "Ali Senko".

It turned out to be this thing, Phil was a little surprised, this was the baby at the bottom of the box in front of him.

Except as a birthday present, Phil hasn't seen it since he took it out to show off when he first got it.

The Ram ball game is 90% similar to the rules and gameplay of rugby on Earth in the previous life, and it was introduced with the crew of the Extrastellar Alliance, but it was more savage and bloody.

Perhaps it was this brutal and exciting way of playing, especially in line with the Wards' interest in flesh-to-body fighting, that soon became popular in the military and schools.

And with the demobilization and graduation of groups of people, the movement was also brought into the civilian population.

In just a few decades, it has replaced several traditional ball games and become the number one sport on this huge planet, which has been wildly loved by the general public.

As for being called Ram Ball, it is because the human physique of the Extrastellar Alliance is too weak compared to Gaia Star, and the sphere is too fragile and small.

It's hard to imagine how the game would go on on the pitch when players from both sides collide at random, and the ball happily bursts into a few pieces of torn skin.

Therefore, after the introduction of the sport, a suitable natural alternative was soon found locally, that is, the lam fruit, a fruit called the ram tree, and the otherworldly continental version of the sport was renamed the ram ball.

As for "Yali Senko", who signed on the ball, he is the champion player who has led his team to win the "Renkel Cup" continental Ramball Cup in the past five consecutive years, and serves as the main quarterback.

Although this ball may not have been a match ball at the time, and it may have been sold in bulk in the club's souvenir shop, it is still precious.

Phil touched the golden lines on the orb, glanced at little Duke, and thought it was very interesting.

It's good to have received it, but even if this gift is over, he won't snatch the child's favorite toy.

He swept the ball up and down twice, which was a bit heavy for his age, and threw it back to the little boy sitting on the couch.

When Philmore was holding the sphere, little Duke's eyes locked on his movements like radar, and he was secretly relieved to see where he avoided the signature.

But before he could react, he was smashed into his arms by the ball, and looked at Phil with a puzzled look.

"It's a gift for you. "I can finally say a few more words than before.

"If you get it, you don't need it, it's too valuable, this is a birthday gift that your father bought for you from the imperial capital. ”

Duke Jr. touched the ball in his hand a few times with his thumb, and it could be seen that he was hesitant.

But as if he had made up his mind, he put the ball in the box and pushed it in Phil's direction. "For you, I have other gifts. ”

Hehe, Phil laughed, thinking it was even more interesting, the little boy obviously didn't dare to look at the box when he pushed it this way, as if he was afraid that he would change his mind if he looked at it any longer.

"Okay, I'll take the gift, just like I lent it to you again, you keep it for me, and when we can play, you can return it to me. Phil picked up the box again and placed it firmly in Little Duke's hand.

Seeing that little Duke was still a little entangled, Phil didn't wait for him to speak, and said categorically: "That's it, listen to me." ”

As if these words were orders, this time little Duke immediately obediently put away the box, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. "Tell me if you want. ”

Phil smiled and nodded, thinking that it was a good day, and ordered the kitchen to prepare a big meal, and took little Duke around his house.

He also showed him some treasures that he hadn't shown before, such as a figure of a cartoon character, and gave him a pink cute version of a pillow in the shape of a beast and a dragon when he left.

Little Duke was still dizzy when he went out, looking at the obviously girl-style pillow in his hand, crying and laughing.

He still hasn't figured it out, he originally came to give gifts, but not only did he not give it out, but when he came back, he took a gift from someone else.

The cold-faced boy scratched his hair in annoyance, looked back in the direction of Phil's house, and then turned around and walked home.

But this time, he didn't have a cold face, and there was a vague smile in the corner of his eye.

Sending Duke off Jr., Phil's attention turned to his second new interest.

When she passed by Blair, who was cleaning up the house, she also probed and asked, "Do you see my Alice?"

"I didn't see it, you look for it again, and you'll lose it all day long. Could it be that it was taken away by Boa, who has been particularly interested in pink things these days. Phil didn't even look back, and threw the pot directly to the innocent Bao'er, who made it unable to speak.

Not to mention Bao'er, who might be unlucky because of this, Phil came to an empty field in the backyard of his home.

It is a practice place that can be found in the homes of every active and retired military person, and it is also understood as a school ground in the past life in order to maintain physical condition even when they are on vacation.

Phil's school yard is small, less than 50 meters long and wide, built in the open air, and there are some wooden stakes and stone hammers near the door.

When Matthew wasn't at home, all the ordnance was registered one by one by Campbell's butler and carefully locked in the storeroom.

Phil's second new interest is physical exercise.

Since that day, he has found that his strength has inexplicably increased somewhat, although not much.

Every man has a dream hidden in his heart, wanting to have a strong body and become the king of life and death on the battlefield.

Especially for Phil in this life, even more so.

It was the third day of his secret practice, and just as Phil was expectantly holding a rough stone hammer and sweating it, a despicable informer appeared, betraying him in front of Catherine the Great Demon and shamelessly slandering him.

"Mr. Philip O. Snape, can you explain to me what it is to enter your maid's bedroom and steal your personal belongings?

Also, when did you celebrate your eighth birthday and get access to the school?"

As soon as I entered the main hall, I saw Catherine the Great Demon King sitting on the sofa with a serious expression.

And his little maid, Blair, stood behind Catherine, looking at him with a pretended deep look.

Ephile has been with her for the past two years, not to mention her room, even his bath is served by Blair, what is there to be embarrassed about.

Not to mention personality, he knows this little woman's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys very clearly.

Phil was convinced that if Gaia, the mother goddess of the Earth, had given Blair a long tail, she would definitely be wagging her tail in excitement right now.

In the past two days, his secret training has been carried out by Blair and kept secret.

According to the customs of this world, it is generally forbidden to exercise before the age of eight to ensure the needs of the body's vital energy for brain development.

After the age of eight, you can exercise to a limited extent, but there are strict rules.

For example, the total weight must not exceed one-tenth of the child's body weight, including all armor and equipment.

There is also a daily training time, for different training contents, not allowed to exceed a certain time limit, etc., quite strict and cumbersome, and continue until the child reaches the age of 12.

Phil didn't think the custom was scientific, but now he was actually caught.

Obviously, the first two days were fine, but today Alice had just run away from home and was discovered, and the possibility of a coincidence was infinitely close to zero.

In the face of Catherine's Great Demon King, Phil knows that it is useless to deceive with clever tongues, and his wife is a genius who has awakened in terms of perception, especially to himself.

So he had no choice but to admit his mistake and strive for leniency.

"I deeply regret the loss of Ms. Blair. I think maybe next week, a new Alice will appear at her bedside.

As a sign of my repentance and sincerity, I am willing to use my private money to fill in a beautiful crystal hairpin for the new Alice. "God knows why a beastly dragon with strong armor turns into a pillow with hair," Phil thought angrily.
