Chapter Twenty-Four: The New Captain of the Lace Squad
Red saw Ryan's thoughts, and he smiled and said, "Ryan, you don't have to think so much, it will be our greatest honor to be able to walk with you." β
Faras also said, "Yes. Why don't you like this, Ryan, what do you think we'll give this team a new name?"
Ryan asked strangely, "That's a good name, why change it?"
Faras said: "Your strength has been recognized by all of us, and the whole team is naturally dominated by you. As is customary, you can give your squad a new name. β
Ryan shook his head and said, "This is not good, I am just participating in the Lace team, not here to grab the captain's position." β
Red said: "It's not a robbery, it's your performance that conquers us." We're willing to listen to you. Besides, I found that a lot of our previous ideas weren't practical, and we didn't want to lose badly at AtlΓ©tico Royale. Faras begs you to train her in magic tomorrow, and I'd like to take part too. And I guess Oz and Alina don't want to say it, but they also want some guidance from you, after all, not everyone has the courage and strength to plunge a dagger into a lich's body. β
Alina hurriedly said, "That's, that's." Ryan, just give us more pointers. β
Oz said, "Ryan, I ......"
Ryan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Everyone be quiet." As soon as the words fell, the members of Ress Team immediately closed their mouths and looked at Ryan quietly.
Ryan was still a little unaccustomed to his position in the Race Squad, and he said, "Since I have joined our Race Squad, it is my obligation to help my companions improve their strength, and it will also be good for us to participate in the AtlΓ©tico Royale tournament." But I don't know what to command, let me be the captain, I can't do it. β
Elendo's words rang in Ryan's ears: "Ryan, did you learn magic from birth?"
"Of course not," Ryan said. β
Alendor asked again, "Your martial arts have also been acquired through hard practice, right?"
Ryan said, "Yes. β
Alendor said, "Then you won't be the captain of an adventurer's squad, why don't you study as seriously as you study magic and martial arts?"
Ryan hesitated and said, "This ......"
"Now that Lace Squad, your performance is being recognized, and many of your styles are very useful," said Allendo. Whether it's for your personal purpose or to improve the strength of the whole team, this captain must be you. Because only in this way will the Race team not get confused. β
Ryan said, "Confused? What do you mean?"
Alendor explained: "Everyone has just expressed their hopes, and I hope to get your advice. Since your train of thought is used in ordinary practice, only you can bring out the best effect of this way of thinking when fighting. But if you don't be the captain, do you want the captain to ask you what to do next? Or do you all do what you understand? Isn't that a separate battle? If you play to the team's strengths?"
Ryan listened to Allendo's words and felt that it made sense. He suddenly had some understanding of the purpose of the two teachers to let him participate in the Royal Athletic Competition, but the personal coming-of-age trial had to go to the competitive competition that required five people to participate, perhaps, the two teachers were consciously exercising their abilities in these aspects, right?
Thinking of this, Ryan said decisively: "Okay, I promise you!"
Coming out of the cave, Ryan and his party returned to the inn. At this time, it was already dawn, and Ryan saw that everyone was a little tired, so he announced that they would go back to their rooms to rest.
When he was in the cave, he didn't feel it, but when Ryan lay on the bed, the fatigue of his body immediately came to him. Today, Ryan fought with all his might, facing death several times, both mentally and physically consumed, and he quickly fell asleep.
When he woke up, Ryan looked out the window and found that it was still dawn, and it seemed that he had slept for a short time.
Ryan got dressed, stood on the ground, and moved his body, feeling that he was almost fine except for a few places where he still had some pain. Ryan felt that his spirit was very good, and even his magic ability was almost completely recovered, and even improved somewhat, but it was just a feeling, and Ryan couldn't tell what was going on.
Obviously, now was not the time to think about this, and Ryan decided to get everyone together first, and he woke up Allendo first.
Alendor opened his eyes and saw Ryan get up, he stretched and said, "It's so comfortable to sleep." β
Ryan said, "It's still daylight outside, so it doesn't look like we slept long." β
Alendor looked out the window carefully, smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's the next day." β
Ryan listened to Allendo's words, looked out the window again, he looked carefully, and said, "You really said it, the day we came back, although it was morning, there were very thick dark clouds in the sky. And now the sky outside is clearer, and if it's the same day, the weather is changing really fast. β
The two chatted a few more words, and when Alendor was dressed, they walked out of the room together.
Ryan and Alendor made their way to the inn lobby, which was still empty. When the innkeeper saw Ryan and them coming out, he hurriedly walked up and said, "You have finally come out, you went out the night before yesterday and came back yesterday morning." Then I stayed in the room until noon today. It scared me so much that I thought you were ......."
Ryan smiled and sat down at a table with Alendor. He said to the innkeeper, "Bring something to eat, for we are all hungry." β
"Okay, you don't call me when you eat. Aliana's words came.
Ryan followed the sound and saw Alina and Faras approaching one after the other. When Faras saw Ryan, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "It's been a long night's sleep, and I thought I had only slept for half a day." β
Red's voice rang out, too: "I'm hungry, boss, get something quickly." β
When Ryan saw that everyone had arrived, he said, "Let's eat first, and when we're done, let's find a place to talk about something." β
After listening to Ryan's words, everyone sat around. The innkeeper handed Faraz the menu, and the first few times, Faraz was ordering. Faras, however, handed the menu to Ryan.
Ryan didn't pick it up, he smiled and said, "It's better for you to come." β
Farath said, "What do you want to eat?"
Ryan said, "I don't care, as long as there's meat." β
Faras opened the menu, named more than a dozen dishes in a row, and soon a variety of meat items were on the table.
Everyone enjoyed a good lunch. After facing death a few times, it is a supreme happiness to enjoy a beautiful and hearty lunch.
