Sibez wields a hammer and wanders around the recruit's egg. Since becoming the captain of the Bear Knight, training recruits has become his daily routine. Every day, in addition to selecting warriors from the ranks of believers who can go to war, it is to study in the Temple of Ersun, according to Yeskovich, becoming a bear knight does not mean that you have been blessed by Ersun forever, the bear god is testing everyone, and if you slack off, you will take back everything he gave you before. Therefore, prayer is still necessary.

Of course, Sibes never thought that he would be blessed by the bear god without praying. In fact, he knew that he had received very few blessings from Ursun, that is, when he was in the dark forest for trials, and that he had not received special care from the bear god at other times. Unlike Rhodes, the lord of Blackhammer Castle, he is valued by Urson almost all the time.

However, Sibes did not complain, and it was not up to mortals to decide who the gods would give their power to. As an ordinary person, he could only do everything to study, train, fight.

Recruit Volt stabbed with a long sword, the most common combat move, stabbing the enemy with the advantage of the length of the weapon. And Sibes has long been familiar with this. He shifted his feet slightly before the opponent stabbed him with his sword, sideways to dodge the attack, and at the same time flipped his wrist, and the heavy hammer roared and smashed into Volt from below.

The recruit was startled by the sudden attack, and he barely managed to dodge, but his body staggered and almost fell. Sibes took advantage of the gap to take a quick step forward, a dash, and pushed his shoulder against Volt's face. Recruit Volt was knocked straight to the ground, letting out a groan of pain.

"Next. ”

And Sibes, who had just warmed up, yelled for the next challenger to come up, which meant that the recruit was not yet qualified in physical combat. You also need to practice to become a candidate for Bear Rider.

He had to beat down a dozen opponents like this in a morning. And only one or two were able to walk through three rounds from him. These people will be candidates for the Bear Rider, ready to plunge into the Great Forest in the fall to take on the trials of the Bear God.

Sibeth knew that he was not too strict, and if it was Lord Rhodes himself to assess, there was a good chance that these recruits would be beaten by him.

"Sibes! Something's wrong, there's something big!"

Sibes wiped the hammer and was about to take on the next challenger when his subordinate Bear Knight ran over out of breath.

"What's the matter?"

Sibes put down the hammer and looked questioning.

"Your daughter...... Your daughter was found to be a frost witch while washing clothes by the river......"

Knight Bear said breathlessly.

"How is this possible?"

Sibes looked stunned, he didn't believe it was true.

"Don't doubt it, Lord Rhodes and Lord Caroline have already arrived at the scene to deal with it, there are too many witnesses to hide it. ”

Bear Knight Bean said anxiously, and everyone present looked stunned. The Frost Witch is not scary, the point is that Kislev has a rule that all Frost Witches must be sent to the capital to "study" once they are discovered. However, the so-called learning is nothing more than a façade, and the real purpose is to train a puppet to become a queen. This has long been a well-known fact.

Sibeth hung the hammer behind him and hurried out of the training ground with Bean.

He went straight to the castle hall because, according to Bean, Lord Rhodes had brought his daughter to the castle in the first place. Ms. Caroline was the escort throughout the process. Fat cat bar

......

After hurrying into the castle, Sibez's last hope was dashed. Her daughter was crying and lying in Caroline's arms. Her hands were still stained with ice slag, and the frost and cold air continued to emanate from the palms of her hands, so that the entire hall cooled down slightly.

"Mourn, Sibes, I can't hide it. Hundreds of people have seen it, and we can't hide it anymore. ”

Rhodes walked over and patted him on the shoulder with his hand.

"The Frost Witch would awaken without warning, it wasn't her intention, but she couldn't control it, like an energy in her body that would naturally burst out at a certain time. We should be glad that she was just doing the laundry and didn't hurt anyone. Otherwise, some witches will freeze to death with frostbite when they awaken. ”

Caroline explained calmly, holding the little girl and comforting her.

"Come on, look at your daughter, but be careful, don't get frostbitten from her, she can't control her magic right now. ”

Caroline continued.

Sibez's mood was painful and complicated, and he held his daughter's hand and instantly felt a chill to his bones. And her daughter Bella looked terrified, "Dad, am I really a monster?"

"No, you're not a monster, you're just a wizard. ”

Sibes said, her face gloomy. This scene reminded Rhodes of the scene when Dennis was brought to the Kislev School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The awakening of ordinary people to witches is equivalent to being a champion from a poor family, which is originally a thing to be celebrated and happy about, but this is not the case in Kislev. Everyone knows that once the Frost Witch is brought to the Academy of Magic, it is no longer as simple as the Frost Witch. Sometimes, even memories are erased. What Caterina wants is not a flesh-and-blood warrior, but a mechanical puppet.

"Brother, mourn, news will reach Caterina soon. Until the queen pursues it, we can only send Bella to the Academy of Magic. ”

Despite how similar the situation was, Rhodes had to send the little girl out. If the daughter of the nobleman successfully graduates, she can return to the noble. And the daughters of commoners, once they graduate, rarely return to their parents. Caterina would arrange for them to be mistresses with various nobles and lords, so as to grasp their information and movements. That is, the Queen's tool. Although Sibez is the leader of the Bear Knights, he is a commoner, and even if Rhodes gives him knighthood, in Caterina's opinion, he is still just a commoner. Therefore, what awaits Bella will be a dark life......

Unless she's a genius who can master certain special skills after graduation that will give her a chance to move up the ranks. But the odds of that are slim. Because it seems that Bella's ability is not very strong. It can be said that it is very ordinary. It's a blessing that such a witch can graduate. Moreover, she is thirteen years old. The fastest growth stage for witches is between the ages of eight and fifteen, and even if Bella is sent to the magic academy, there are only two years left to improve quickly. To what extent the little girl can learn in two years, Rod really doesn't dare to compliment. She's not Dennis, who is a genius who froze to death to death when she awakened at the age of eight...... It is even more favored by the teachers of the entire magic academy. And Bella is not.

"When will the Queen's people come?"

Sibes hugged his daughter, his face painful.

"A week at most. Until then, we have to be ready. ”

Rod sighed and reassured, and he turned his head to look at the young witch apprentice.

"Bella, remember, wherever you go in the future, don't forget your father, Sibes. You have his blood in your veins. He was a warrior, a brave and upright warrior. Never, never, never forget where you came from. Here, Black Hammer Fort, is your home. When you get to the Academy of Magic, don't trust anyone. Whatever they say, just listen to it silently. Know how to analyze yourself, listen more, talk less. Don't believe what others say. The world is full of intrigue and darkness, and you are a person with an independent personality who must have your own mental judgment. Also, when you get there, if you get stuck, you can go to Dennis. She, like you, traveled from Blackhammer to Kislev City. She is my daughter, you can be good friends and help each other. Got it?"

Rod touched the little girl's head, hoping that she could understand the meaning of these words. Bella nodded earnestly, however, Rod didn't know if she really understood the meaning of these words with the IQ and social experience of a thirteen-year-old girl...... After all, not everyone is Dennis......
