In the arena, Carter was enjoying the cheers of the audience, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and Carter had a self-deprecating smile on his face for some reason, and beckoned to the referee.

Seeing this, the referee hurriedly ran to Carter's side, bowed slightly and asked, "Your Excellency Carter, what are you looking for me?"

Carter smiled and said, "Referee, I'm very sorry, I abstained from the rest of the game." ”

The referee exclaimed: "Your Excellency, you are very athletic, I think you have a chance to compete for the winner of the competition, but the final winner will be received by the Empress, and you will have the opportunity to become the chief of the royal guard?"

Carter tweeted: "I prefer to travel freely, so I won't continue to participate in the duel, thank you for your kindness." ”

The referee regretted: "Well, I think it's a shame about that. He then went to the organizers and told Carter that he had abstained.

In the royal viewing hall, Empress Gladys looked at Carter and exclaimed: "This warrior's swordsmanship is very good, I haven't seen such a fast swordsmanship for a long time, what is his name, you should immediately ask him, ask him if he has any intention of serving the royal family." ”

Shani, the head maid on the side, said: "Your Majesty, his name is Carter, and the organizer has just informed me that he has abstained from voting, and has said that he prefers freedom. ”

Gladys picked up a gorgeous fan decorated with colorful feathers and fanned slightly, and muttered with interest: "I turned down the opportunity to serve the royal family, and said that I like freedom, it seems that he is a man with a story." ”

Shani continued to report: "Your Majesty, Dean David and Duke Nicholas seem to have left the table in a hurry just now, do you want us to track it down?"

Gladys smiled: "Let him go, the situation in our empire is unstable now, thanks to the help leader of the academy led by David, it is a little stable, can't he have some personal affairs? Don't get involved so much!"

Carter's abstention was just a minor episode, and people only slightly regretted the loss of a strong player, but the intense competition quickly pulled back their minds and continued to cheer and cheer for the next match.

Russell and the others, who left the academy in a carriage and got out of danger, did not return to the arena at this time, but went all the way to Carlos's home. This battle was really dangerous, and a lot of secrets were dug out, and the two decided to come back and discuss it in the car.

The groom galloped the horses all the way back, and when they got home, the horses were tired and snorted and neighed loudly.

When the butler saw the disheveled and embarrassed men, he hurriedly welcomed the two of them into the house, asked the servants to help them into comfortable chairs, and sent for tea to quench their thirst, and then took the servants away and closed the door of the living room.

Russell was so thirsty that he took a sip of his teacup and let out a satisfied sigh after drinking. When he came to his senses, Russell said jokingly: "You are a good housekeeper, you are very good at observing words and feelings!"

Carlos buried himself in his chair and smiled: "Haha, the two of us are like this, as long as we are not fools who don't know that we have something to talk about!"

After both of them eased up, Carlos sighed: "The battle just now is too dangerous, I really saw the ghost that Baez said, no, no, it's called the book spirit, I think I'm well-informed, but I've never seen such a mysterious thing!"

Russell took the tea and asked silently: "Carlos, I don't know if you noticed, it talked about the abyss, which is not like what we can have here, and it claims to have been summoned from another world, what kind of world is this?"

Carlos said with a wry smile: "I only know the ghost of a book, the reality that we two healthy young people can't fight back, and if there is a stronger existence in our world, I don't know what kind of terrible things will happen." ”

"Tell me something interesting, what is your sword all about, why does it shine brightly, and it has such magical power, I wonder if you would like to tell me the truth?" Carlos asked with interest, staring at Russell's morning light.

Russell laughed and said: "We have experienced life and death, and you are also a righteous person, so this can be regarded as a friend of life and death, I will not hide these things from you." He pulled Dawn from his waist and held it in his hands in front of Carlos's eyes, telling him where Dawn had come from.

"There is such a magical person who exists!" Carlos's eyes widened in disbelief after listening to Russell's story, "It's incredible, can this existence called a mage really change the world?"

"Exactly. ”

Carlos looked at the morning light, even if the morning light sword body was not glowing, it could show golden ornaments in the reflection of the sun, and it was not like it was cast by mortal iron, which was very bright and translucent, but with Carlos's countless memories of reading the sword, he still keenly felt the unnaturalness of the morning light, and it seemed that something key was missing that made this sword unable to be integrated.

Thinking of this, Carlos spoke his mind to Russell. Russell sighed, "The mage told me about this when he first gave me this sword, and he said that it was up to me to perfect it. ”

Carlos spread out his chair and said in frustration: "With so many unknown things gradually haunting, how is our world good?"
