043: Self-confidence from human nature

"Miss Britney, long time no see" Bilt took the initiative to greet him, and after a brief greeting, his eyes shifted to Alice next to him, and asked politely, "Who is this beautiful young lady next to you?"

"Hee-hee, what's the matter?, love at first sight?" Britney smiled teasingly, and Alice, who was already shy, immediately had a trace of embarrassment on her face, and she was stunned when she saw Bilt pause, and Britney then introduced: "Her name is Alice, remember, but my friend, you are not allowed to bully her"

"How come" Bildt put on a very gentlemanly smile, took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and said generously: "Hello, beautiful Miss Alice, it's a pleasure to meet you"

"Hello... Master Bildt" Alice stretched out her arm with a slight tremor and shook Bildt, and hurriedly withdrew her hand, but at the same time began to blame herself for her faux pas, she didn't know that the more she was like this, the more she could arouse Bildt's curiosity.

"Welcome to the two beautiful ladies to join" subconsciously in order to highlight his different identities, he introduced as a host and guest: "These are my friends, Charlie, Cassman Britney, you know both, this is Roshi Trow, I think you should have heard his name, yes, it's that Roshi"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Britney, and Miss Aliceβ€”" Rosie greeted Britney as if they were meeting her for the first time, and then looked at Alice

"So you're here too, Roshi" met someone she knew in an unfamiliar environment, even if this person was not very familiar, but it still brought Alice a sense of belonging.

"Why? you know?" asked Bildt, surprised

"Yes, Alice and I are both apprentices at the Horadit Academy of Magic, and she is an excellent water magician," Roshi emphasized.

"Ah, Alice, you're still a magician?" said Britney, surprised, and the two words had completely different meanings in different ears

In the heart of Alice, who was born in a peasant family and yearns for nobility but has not been able to achieve her long-cherished wish through magic, whether it is Roshi's introduction or Britney's surprise, it is just a polite expression, and she doesn't care about her status as a magician at all.

And in the bottom of Bildt's heart, in addition to being pure, cute, and shy, this rare girl was labeled as a magician equal to his identity, and for a while, his heart's favorability towards her doubled.

With the addition of the two ladies, the topic naturally cannot revolve around the previous ****, and the nobles have always been promoted to the full level in the skill of disguise.

Bilt completely changed into a gentleman's appearance, elegantly and wittily provoked some ordinary topics, and made some normal jokes from time to time.

And Roshi and Britney also specially found some Bildt dazzling directions to guide the topic in accordance with the prior arrangement, and the atmosphere developed better and better.

β€œ... The horse had been trafficked from the Northlands, and its original owner belonged to a 'Knight of Glory', and no one had conquered it, including my father, but there was always a voice in my heart calling, and that voice told me..."

Whenever he recounted an event that was out of the limelight in his memory with a hint of boasting, Bildt saw the look of admiration on Alice's face, which was completely silent.

Different from the pretense of those aristocratic ladies who were sycophants, Bilt could see that it was from the bottom of his heart, he really liked to hear these stories, and he cared about that kind of scene, an inexplicable feeling made Bilt more and more interested, as if that was the sense of accomplishment that Roch said!

With all this in his eyes, the smile on Roshi's face became brighter and brighter, things are going in a good direction at the moment, and it is going so smoothly, it just takes a little more time...

With brisk steps, Alice made her way back to the academy with a bright smile on her face and a hint of unfinished business.

It wasn't until today that Alice realized that she had wasted more than a decade of her life, boring meditation and studying spells, racking her brains every day against those elemental structures, which was not the life she wanted at all.

Shuttling through the flow of people, using elegance and cultivation to strengthen these excellent people, making yourself as good as them, and obtaining higher resources, this is the wonderful life that Alice yearns for.

It would have been nice to have known Britney earlier... Alice thought with regret in her heart, but it's not too late, my life is about to start again!

Both Britney and several other nobles expressed their hope that they would be present at the next banquet when they were leaving, and it seemed that they were indeed doing very well...

"Huh, pretty girl, it's so late, where are you going alone, do you want our brothers to take you home?" At this moment, a playful and extremely impolite voice came from the front.

Alice subconsciously looked over there, and saw three or five disheveled men walking towards her with empty wine bottles in their hands, hooked on their shoulders and backs, with a wicked smile on their faces.

Alice didn't have a regular meeting, but quickened her pace, intending to get around the side, but the drunks didn't give up, blocking her wherever she went.

"What are you doing?" Alice, helplessly, raised her head and asked, but her voice was naturally gentle, and she was a little timid at this time, her question was really not convincing.

"It's just that the night is dark, little sister, you are lonely and lonely, how about a few of us accompany you?" said one of the drunken men, grinning, and reached forward to Alice as he spoke.

Stunned, her cheeks were touched by a drunk, and Alice lost her face, and she still remembered her identity as a magician, and she only knew that she would step back.

"What are you running, none of us are bad people, we're just playing with you" The drunk grabbed her by the arm and dragged her into the alley with the others

"Help... Help, help!" Alice's head exploded with a bang, and she subconsciously hurriedly shouted for help, but in this street where there was no one, where could she get any response.

"Stop!"

Just when Alice was almost desperate, there was a loud shout in the distance of the street, and then Alice saw a familiar figure hurrying towards her.

At this time, Bildt had already taken off his previous dress, black leggings, and a white flower-collared shirt on his upper body.

"Little ghost, there's nothing to do with you here, if you know each other, hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu" The leading villain, seeing that he was just a hairy boy, stepped forward and glared at him viciously, and said viciously

"Boom!"

Bilt listened to what the wicked man had to say, and with a bang, he drew out the slender saber that he had used as a decoration at his waist, straightened his chest and stabbed it with his back.

"Puff"

β€œ... Ahh

"Damn, let's go up together and abolish this kid"

"Oh my god, it's bleeding, hurry... Let's go, let's go."

These hooligans who have an evil appearance are not big in themselves, and they don't have any weapons on them, although Bildt doesn't have much ability, but he has received orthodox swordsman training, and he also has such a little fighting spirit.

"Miss Alice, it's really you, are you okay?" he hurriedly walked over to Alice, straightened up her clothes that had been torn by the hooligans, and asked with concern

"Than... Compare... Master Ert: "Alice was frightened

"Woo wow! Master Bildt, woo woo!" she relieved herself, and she hugged Bildt and cried loudly as she had just recovered from her fright

While stroking Alice's back and verbally reassuring her, Bildt was simply happy in his heart, and secretly congratulated himself on making the right decision.

I was sitting in the carriage before and heard Alice's cry for help, and when I looked at it, I didn't expect it to be the girl who left a deep impression on him at the banquet.

Subconsciously, she was about to order the guards to go and relieve the siege, but when she noticed that it was only a few skinny hooligans who surrounded her, Bildt thought about it, and under the influence of alcohol, she mustered up her courage and rushed forward.

Now it seems that this decision is really the right one, and for the first time, Bildt also found that he was so capable of fighting, and what he didn't expect was that this kind of storybook hero saving beauty happened to him!

It's no wonder that bards keep singing stories like these, and only when they are the protagonists of the stories can they be experienced.

Fultit, who was greatly satisfied with his sense of accomplishment, comforted Alice, who was crying in his arms, and decided to write a legend of his own.

"You're so confident in your plan?" After watching the carriage carrying Alice disappear at the end of the street, Baron Cailliaud stepped out of the darkness, and behind him were the same hooligans who had just attacked Alice bandaging their wounds.

"It doesn't come from my own wisdom that gives me confidence, but... Born of human nature," Roshi replied with a smile on his face as he walked out of the darkness

"Humanity?" Baron Cailliaud clearly didn't quite understand

"Yes" nodded, and the corners of Roshi's mouth curled:

"The Lord said, 'Vanity is sin!'"
