When the first rays of the morning sun shine on the top of Tekken Castle. Ryan slowly opened his eyes, he first looked at Vivian curled up in his arms, his heart was full of sweetness, the woman in front of him finally belonged to him completely, and that feeling was enough to make Ryan intoxicated.

Looking at Vivien, who was still sleeping, Ryan gently kissed her on the forehead, then slowly pulled his arm from under Vivien's body, and then stepped off the wooden bed and slowly put on his clothes. Even though he fought hard last night, Ryan's habit of waking up early for many years still allowed him to wake up as soon as the sun rose.

Slowly pushed open the bathroom door, let the morning sun naughtily slipped into the room, Ryan turned his head and smiled at Vivian, who continued to sleep soundly, and left briskly, and as soon as Ryan left, several of Vivian's personal maids walked into the bathroom with their heads down and red faces, seeing that they all looked haggard, and most of them stood outside the bathroom for a whole night, but fortunately it was summer, otherwise these maids would have been offended.

Ryan already felt that he had gotten up early enough, but he didn't expect that when he stepped into the practice field, there would be someone who arrived earlier than him, and Ryan seemed to have guessed this, so he said loudly: "Teacher Galib, you are still the same as before!"

Galib didn't stop his activities, he stretched his limbs slowly, and said in a mocking tone: "Yes, Ryan, I thought you wouldn't come today, but I didn't expect you to fight hard all night, and you still have the energy, well, it's really surprising to **!"

Ryan blushed, stood in place and squirmed and said, "I hate it, teacher, you actually eavesdrop on other people's ......"

Galib laughed and diverted the topic, and after he laughed, he said to Ryan, "I said Ryan, it's been many years since you left Fog Town, I don't know how your strength is now? ”

Ryan proudly said to Galib: "Teacher, even if you are a legendary powerhouse, I can probably fight hard!"

Galib smiled faintly and said to Ryan, "Great, come and show me your 'fight'!"

When Galib said "fight hard", his tone was deliberately much heavier, obviously not believing Ryan's words, which made Ryan competitive. After all, Ryan has always been striving to defeat Galib when he was a child, and now he has experienced countless adventures, and has greatly improved his strength in this journey, which has also given Ryan a certain amount of confidence.

"Teacher Galib, be careful!" Ryan was very arrogant, he took a deep breath, and his whole body became hazy, and then Ryan took a step forward, but as soon as his foot stretched out, the whole figure immediately split into seven or eight, and when Ryan's foot landed, a full nine Ryan had already surrounded Galiab.

Fireballs, Lightning, Ice Arrows, Missiles...... Ryan and his mirrors unhesitantly tilted the magic denser than the storm onto Galib's head, and at the same time, Ryan also divided his mind and let several mirror images work together to release a magic circle, ready to attack Galib with more powerful magic.

Almost all of Ryan's all of this was done in just one breath, and looking at his full blow, Ryan could be said to be full of ambition in his heart, because even if Victor or Catherine were here, I am afraid that he would have to avoid it first, and then wait for an opportunity to fight back. Unexpectedly, the smile on the corner of Ryan's mouth had frozen before it could be revealed, and his body suddenly stiffened in place, and those mirror images also dissipated into the air.

It was a hand that caused all this, to be precise, a big hand that was gently placed on Ryan's throat, and the owner of the big hand was naturally Ryan's martial arts teacher Galib. Ryan looked at his teacher incredulously, he really couldn't imagine how Galib could break through the layers of magic attacks he had planted and directly grasp the body, obviously if Ryan's previous enemies could have this ability, then Ryan would not be alive now.

"It's terrible!" said Elendo's voice, who had just stepped into the place when he saw a shocking scene.

"Actually, the reason is very simple. After Galib said this lightly, his big hand on Ryan's throat immediately moved to Ryan's shoulder, and gently brushed Ryan's collar a few times, as if his action just now was just to help Ryan dust off, Ryan froze in place, thinking hard about how Ghaleb did it just now.

After a long time, Ryan still couldn't figure out how his teacher Galib did it, so he raised his head and said to Galib, who was standing aside, "Teacher, how did you do it?

Galib stretched out a finger and shook it gently in the air, then explained, "Actually, you don't. ”

"Ah, what's going on?" Ryan seemed to go back to his youthful days, standing respectfully in front of Galib, listening carefully as Galib cleared his doubts.

"Ryan, remember the time I took you to kill the Earth Bear?"

"Of course, I'm sure I'll never forget it for the rest of my life. Ryan hurriedly replied: "Strong enough, with flexible and skillful use, hit the enemy's vital point!"

"Very well, it seems that you have a good memory. Galib smiled and said to Ryan, "What is strong enough power, and how can it be used flexibly and skillfully?"

"This ......" Ryan hesitated for a moment, not answering immediately, because there were so many aspects to the question.

"One example, Ryan. Galib explained to Ryan and Allendo, "Under normal circumstances, a magic apprentice is definitely not as strong as a high-level magician, and a high-level magician is certainly not as strong as a high-level mage. Why can we be so sure, because the latter has more power than the former. ”

"For example, one Void Protection is enough to make the vast majority of low-level mages helpless. Ryan was deeply aware of the example given by Galib, and he nodded vigorously and continued to listen to Galib: "This is the difference in strength, and it can't be made up with skill. You thought you had blocked all my attack routes with magic, but this was not the case, as if you were climbing a mountain, and it seemed that there was no way around, but when you finally climbed to the top, you found that the road was actually in all directions, but it was in your original position, and you couldn't see it at all. ”

"So, Teacher, you're really already there?" Ryan asked Galib with a little anticipation.

Galibha laughed, but did not answer Ryan's question, he patted Ryan on the shoulder again, and said to Ryan: "There are many things that cannot be described in words, but when you get to that point, you will naturally understand." It's like the 'Time Stop' magic, you can't reach it, you can't imagine what it will be like when time is stopped from flowing by powerful mana, and you won't understand how the 'Time and Space Gate' can teleport a person directly to another place far away. ”

After Galib finished explaining, he looked at Ryan's expectant eyes, and said seriously: "Ryan, you want to improve your strength, that's right, but you must remember that you can't force everything, and becoming strong in order to become stronger will only make you lose yourself in the journey." ”

"I understand, thank you for the teachings. Ryan solemnly bowed to Galib, and Alendor also saluted to Galib, in order to thank Galib for his point, Galib's words just now can almost be regarded as a kind of awakening of the person standing on the top of the mountain to the person who is still climbing, as for how much can be understood, it is all up to the climber himself.

"Oh, by the way, Ryan, you've probably provoked a lot of enemies since you came out, right?" said Galib suddenly.

Ryan thought for a moment and said, "There are quite a few, like Sennat, the killer organization behind the orcs, the Clay clan, and Sophie...... There are a lot of things that I don't know myself. Teacher, why are you asking this question?"

"Haha, it's actually nothing, when I was in your hometown, there were a lot of people who came to the door. At first, these people had no ill intentions and seemed to be investigating your experience, but after a while, more people came to Misty Town to inquire about you, and I used to eavesdrop on their conversations in private, as if intending to kidnap your parents. ”

"Ahh

"Do you think I can stand idly by?" said Galib proudly, "except for the guys from the imperial capital who came to protect your parents, everyone else has been taken care of by me, and as for your parents, they will probably never know about these things." ”

"Thank you, teacher. Ryan was relieved and said to Galib with a sigh of relief.

Galib smiled slightly, and said: "It's nothing, let's not talk about the relationship between you and me, just because I have been taken care of by everyone in Dense Mist Town for so many years, I should also do more things." Well, since Ryan has a lot of things to do now, and I don't have a place to go anyway, it's better to eat here and wait for death!"

Ryan listened to Galib's words, and his heart was full of gratitude, of course he knew that Galib's so-called "eating and waiting to die" was just a lame excuse, maybe Galib had stayed in Fog Town for so many years after he left his hometown, just to protect his parents. Thinking that he was just an ordinary Orion descendant at the beginning, and he could be so valued by a strong man like Galib, he really didn't know what to say.

Galib seemed to guess the surging in Ryan's heart, and he patted Ryan on the shoulder again and said loudly, "Actually, I'm really bored to find something to pass the time." As for teaching you martial arts at the beginning, it was because I saw the perseverance in your eyes. I thought it would be good to teach you some self-defense martial arts, but I never expected that Draeney guy would actually remember his own young experience because of your tenacity, and you knew everything about the rest of the story. So you have to be grateful, or thank you a lot to Drane. ”
