Chapter 30: Half a Year
In the linguistics classroom, a middle-aged man with a high forehead is holding a textbook and talking on the podium.
"Today I am going to talk about the war that is going on with our country - the lingua franca of the Ottoman Empire, the verangua franca. and some of the more frequently spoken local languages. Due to the large number of orcs in the Ottoman Empire, their pronunciation is mostly curly tongue....."
Kevin sat alone in the front row, his quill in his hand constantly making a "salsa" sound, and he distilled the main points of his mentor's lecture and recorded them all in his notebook.
For him, every class is conducive to making up for his shortcomings in knowledge, so he is very serious in class.
"Whew. ”
A loud horn sounded, the linguistics instructor announced the end of the class, and the students rushed out.
Kevin put his notes away and walked outside the school building to find a familiar figure.
"Hey! Kevin. ”
Fast wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and stands out in the crowd.
"It's a coincidence that I just came out of my bow class when I ran into you. After saying hello, Fast took the initiative to come over, "Your next class is also swordsmanship, right?"
After Kevin leaves Greta's dormitory, he asks Trina and the equestrian instructor to complete his course early, but before he can go to Barney, linguistics begins.
The quality of the teachers at the University of Wellington is high, and most of them are externally hired and are not subject to Brandon's supervision, and they can only graduate if the supervisor agrees to complete the course.
Kevin naturally didn't mind graduating, and just wanted to spend the year in school in peace, waiting for the enrollment of the wizarding academy to begin.
Brandon doesn't think so, and he doesn't want a person who can completely ignore the school rules he has made, even if that person is his student.
So even if it's just a formality, Kevin has to talk to the instructor about it, instead of being absent from class all the time.
"Yes. Kevin nodded.
"I've signed up for a sword class, why don't we go get some food together, or go straight to the classroom?" said Fast, asking Kevin's opinion.
Kevin took a step back and said lightly, "No need, I went to Mentor Barney to apply for early graduation, you can go eat by yourself." ”
There was a sense of detachment in his tone, and he refused to accompany Fast in disguise.
"Finish early?" Fast's voice rose a little, and he said with a little envy, "No wonder you didn't go to the swordsmanship class, it turned out to be a swordsmanship master." I'm not going to eat either, so I'll go with you to Mentor Barney. ”
As he spoke, Fast came up again, as if he didn't understand what Kevin was saying.
Kevin frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "There won't be a problem with this Fast's sexual orientation, right? Nicole told her what she had seen, and it reached Fast's ears, and he mistakenly thought that I was too..."
"I didn't expect the two roommates to be so special, it seems that I have to advance my plan to move out. ”
Kevin's footsteps shifted slightly, dodging Fast as he approached, and without paying much attention, he strode towards the street.
After more than ten minutes, Kevin found the swordsmanship teaching building located in the center of the academy. He pulled a student out of the building and asked about Barney's characteristics.
When I walked into the teaching building, I found that the first and second floors were empty, and there were few students, so it was estimated that they had all returned to the dormitory after school.
Kevin walked up to the third floor and saw Barney with two broad-bladed swords at his waist and a mustache.
With a serious expression, Barney explained the essentials of the movements as he demonstrated swordsmanship to several students.
Kevin watched quietly, not bothered.
Despite the many questions asked by the students, Barney was patient enough to answer them one by one and seemed to be a conscientious teacher.
It wasn't until a few of the students had left that Kevin said what he meant.
"You want to apply for early completion?" Barney squinted his eyes and continued, "It's because you have the blood of the Fire Lin Behemoth in your body, so you don't think swordsmanship matters?"
Kevin was stunned, and to his surprise, Barney didn't bother him for truancy.
"It turns out that Barney thinks I'm arrogant and despises swordsmanship, which leads to dissatisfaction. Kevin was stunned.
In Barney's mind, swordsmanship is his noblest belief and a source of self-esteem, which cannot be taken lightly.
After learning about Barney's mental activity, Kevin knows how to cope.
Kevin shook his head violently and excitedly denied: "Mentor Barney, I have always believed that the power of swordsmanship is no less than that of bloodline! The reason why I applied for early completion is because I have mastered the basic swordsmanship and want to free up time to practice my family's swordsmanship. ”
Hearing this, Barney's expression softened a lot, and he let Kevin practice basic swordsmanship on the spot.
"The foundation is very solid, and I agree that you will finish early. Barney nodded with satisfaction, and said enthusiastically, "If you have any questions in your cultivation, you can come and ask me at any time." ”
After the two finished talking, Kevin walked out of the school building.
"Hmm... The next classes were history and Brandon's botany, and it was so busy that I couldn't spare a moment. Kevin pulled the handwritten itinerary out of his pocket and sighed.
He thought as he walked, "Coupled with the need to investigate Gretta's daily behavior, one person simply can't do everything... By the way, Randall and they are still in Nigal City, and they can be used. ”
........
The white horse passed through the gap, half a year later.
Near the University of Wellington, there is a three-storey detached house.
The house is located in the middle of a mountain forest, surrounded by a wooden fence, with only a path leading to the outside.
In the open space between the wooden fence and the house, there are many stone piers of various sizes, as well as some rudimentary fitness equipment.
Kevin stood in the clearing, he had grown to about 1.65 meters tall, with red hair and a shawl, shirtless. The muscles of the whole body are knotted, and the skin of the body reflects the bronze brilliance in the sun, giving a faint sense of oppression.
"Hah!"
Kevin was half-squatting, the green tendons on his arms were bulging, and his back exerted force, and he let out a loud shout. A stone weighing more than four hundred pounds was held steadily above his head.
After his breathing was steady, Kevin closed his eyes and used his mental power to look inside his organs.
"After half a year of persistent exercise, coupled with the help of two bloodline source stones, my body has obviously reached the level of a knight, but why hasn't the inner membrane formed?"
Kevin opened his eyes, and there was a disappointment between his eyebrows that could not be concealed.
The lining not only protects the lungs, heart, spleen and other parts, but also strengthens the body's resilience and endurance. Only when an inner membrane is formed in the body does it officially represent entering the knight level.
"Isn't there no bottleneck period for bloodliners before their potential is exhausted?" said Kevin, with a deep confusion on his face.
