Chapter 22: The Battle in the Rain

"Whew~~"

Stopping the sword in his hand, Geo wiped the sweat from his face, the heavy rain in the sky had turned into a drizzle, and it looked like it was about to stop. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Fran, do you think thieves will come and attack the caravan?"

"I don't know, although I said that I found traces of the other party's activities, but I didn't know how to be sure. ”

Fran walked over and picked up Geo and rubbed his face, apparently thieves and nothing were as important to her as Geo.

“......”

Geo had no choice but to let her go, although he liked it too.

"It's getting dark, and I hope I can spend this evening safely. ”

Geo didn't want to be attacked or anything, he wasn't a keen fighter, but when he thought of the people in the village, he had to hold on.

"I can't go back. ”

Geo thought to himself, he rarely missed the world he once had, there was no magic, but it was calm and stable, he was not an ambitious person like in the novel, and he was almost 30 years old in the original world, and his former passion had long been wiped out by the reality of society.

"Although I don't plan to be a great person, the revenge of the villagers must be avenged!"

Geo thought as he got out of Fran's arms and continued practicing.

"Looks like the thieves are going to come in the evening. ”

In the carriage, everyone sat in a circle.

"Oh, really, why do you always choose the evening. ”

Linari pouted and grumbled.

The crowd was speechless when they heard her words.

"Are you that interested in combat?"

Ghosn said helplessly.

"Of course, watching those magicians fight, they will stand in the distance and cast their magic in turns, so boring. ”

"It's the nature of the profession, and you can't expect a weak mage to fight with someone else. ”

"So, it's better for you to fight. ”

"I said, how can you be so passionate about hand-to-hand combat, a girl. ”

Ghosn looked at Linari, there was nothing she could do except helplessness, she had outstanding magical talents, and she was selected by Westman's best magic academy, but this little girl didn't have much interest in magic, if it weren't for the elders in the family forcing her, she wouldn't go.

"It's all set up, right?"

Ignoring Linari's complaints, Ghosn asked.

"Well, the traps are all arranged, because I am afraid of accidental injury, so I use relatively small traps. ”

"Well, so be it, after all, you can't tell anyone else about all the arrangements. ”

Hearing his answer, Ghosn nodded.

"But will the thieves really come?"

"It's hard to say, but it's certain that the other party is often active in the area, so it's always right to be careful. ”

Ghosn said.

"In that case, we have to set up more people in the second half of the night. ”

"Well, you go and arrange it. ”

"Good. ”

After assigning the corresponding tasks, everyone got up and left.

"Tsk, I'm looking forward to that guy. ”

"Which guy?"

"It's that very young boy. ”

"You said him. ”

Ghosn frowned.

"If a thief comes tonight, you can better determine the strength of the other party. ”

"I'll keep an eye on him. ”

Ghosn replied.

Although the girl in front of her is only 14 years old, Ghosn does not dare to underestimate her, she has participated in the management of the family's property when she was at home, and she is well organized, it can be seen that her IQ is definitely not low, if there is no decent magician in the family, she will not choose to send her to the academy to study.

It was getting dark, and the rain, which had already been lighter, began to fall again, and although it was not as heavy as it was in the morning, it still had a big impact.

"The rain is getting heavier again. ”

Geo looked at the already dark sky and said.

"Well, go and rest for a while, maybe there will be trouble in the second half of the night. ”

Fran frowned and said.

She seemed to smell something unusual in the air.

As a good hunter, years of intuition told her that something was going to happen.

Looking at Fran's serious appearance, Geo nodded and returned to the carriage to rest.

In the middle of the night, dark clouds blocked the moon, and it was pitch black except where there were torches, and the rain showed no sign of stopping.

"Geo, wake up. “

Fran called Geo to his feet, and the quiet atmosphere around her made her feel depressed.

Gio sat up, didn't speak, took the dagger in his hand, and washed his face with the rain.

Anxiety filled the caravan, and everyone realized that something was about to happen.

"Boom. “

Outside the carriage came the sound of bows and arrows shooting into the planks.

As various bows and arrows with ignition materials were fired onto the carriage, the uneasiness became a reality.

"Deal with them!"

The sound of shouting and killing came from the jungle, followed by a sky of rockets, igniting the previous bow and arrow, lighting up the entire battlefield.

"Be careful. “

Fran told Geo that there was no way for Fran to completely protect him in the chaotic battlefield.

Without speaking, Geo nodded, and as the bow and arrow stopped, the two quickly dismounted from the carriage.

"Cut, there are a lot more people than us. ”

As the two sides came into contact, the sound of swords clashing was heard incessantly.

Since the number of opponents is twice as large as the caravan, each person has to face at least 2 thieves, which makes everyone feel quite difficult.

"Hey, look what I saw? a little ghost, hahaha!"

The thieves laughed at the sight of Geo.

Geo turned and drew his knife.

"You little ghost, what kind of eyes, looking for death!"

Seeing Geo's eyes, the thief felt a little uneasy and rushed towards him.

Fran, who had already faced the thieves, looked at Geo with some uneasiness, although she was very worried, but Fran knew that she had no way to stand in front of Geo all the time, he needed to grow, but for Geo's safety, Fran was always ready to force the enemies who fought with her away in order to rescue Geo.

"It's time to put the results of your learning to the test. ”

Geo thought, controlling the magic and getting it moving.

"Die!"

The thief laughed and swung his knife at Geo.

"Left!"

Geo used the Stealth Technique, and as the magic flowed, the thief's movements slowed down in his eyes, and he flashed to the left, easily dodging the opponent's attack.

Seeing that Geo dodged the thieves, he was furious and charged towards Geo.

"Whew~ Is that so? “

Geo, who gradually mastered the rhythm, and the thieves continued to wrestle, and became more and more proficient in the mastery of the occult technique, because he had learned meditation before, and his mastery of magic was getting stronger and stronger, and what Geo lacked was only the opportunity to fight.

"Ha~Ha~ I'm going to kill you!"

The thief gasped as he felt that Geo was playing tricks on him, and swung his knife at Geo.

"It's an amazing feeling. “

Using the Stealth Technique, Geo can clearly feel the changes around him, he can feel the speed of the rain dripping slowly, and the thieves chasing him, Geo can also clearly see the landing point of each swing of the knife.

"Solve it quickly, if you don't have enough physical strength, you will be in trouble if you lose your strength. “

Geo thought that after all, he was still too young, and no matter how hard he exercised, his physical strength could not be better than that of an adult, and the opponent's number was superior, so it was not a good idea to drag it down.

Gio, who had made the decision, did not hesitate.

At the moment when the thief swung his knife, he bent down, dodged the thief's horizontal slash, rushed to the other party's body, stabbed him fiercely in the heart, and quickly pulled away.

"Hmm, I would ....."

The thief clutched his chest and fell to the ground weakly, gradually losing his life.

Seeing that Geo was safe and sound, Fran breathed a sigh of relief.

After finishing the opponent, Geo quickly ran towards Fran.
