Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Chance Encounter

For Aaron, Crayford's guidance tonight is something he doesn't want to miss anyway. Let a great swordsman personally guide this kind of treatment, which can no longer be done with just spending money.

So although Clifford had set the time at eight o'clock, just after seven o'clock, Aaron had already arrived at Clifford's residence.

When Aaron came to the yard, Crayford was teaching a young man how to practice swords. Aaron hadn't seen these moves, so he took a serious look.

The sword wind is like a knife. Although Aaron was still more than ten meters away from this young man, he had already felt the power of the sword qi.

Crayford found that Aaron had arrived at the training ground and motioned for the young man to rest.

"Teacher, I seem to have disturbed you. Otherwise, I'll just come over and have a look. Aaron said with a laugh.

"you, now you must be scolding me in your heart, this old immortal, at this time he is still adding a small stove to others, those guys during the day must regret dying. Clifford laughed.

"Teacher, you have wronged me, there is only one sentence I really want to say in your words. Aaron said with a bitter face.

"Which one?" Clifford wondered. I didn't expect that there were Aaron's psychological words in the few casual words.

"This old immortal ......"

Aaron's voice was very quiet, but it was still heard by Clifford, and with a "whoosh", the long sword in Clifford's hand was thrown out, grazing Aaron's cheek and flying. Aaron was so frightened that he immediately raised his hands.

"I'm sorry, I don't care about what you said. Clifford said through gritted teeth.

The moment the sword flew over, Aaron felt a blackness in front of him, as if the Grim Reaper had raised the death scythe against him. After the sword flew by, Aaron relented and touched his neck, but fortunately, it was not separated from his head.

What does this old man want to do, to kill people and kill him? I don't seem to have offended him? Hmm...... Strictly speaking, it should be offended.

However, fortunately, Clifford didn't use his sword skills just now, otherwise even if the long sword didn't make contact with Aaron, he would still be able to cut Aaron's head open.

"How does it feel? Is there a feeling of enlightenment?" Clifford suddenly laughed again.

Aaron nodded: "I understand that you can't be too honest in life, and be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth." ”

"You kid, you still haven't learned to behave, do you want to do it again?" said Clifford, looking left and right, trying to find another sword.

"Just kidding. I understand what the teacher means, and I also hope that I can learn the skills of the teacher, but I just don't know if there is enough time. Comparatively, the time I have been studying here is only about thirty days. Aaron could already tell from Clifford's movements and tone of voice that Clifford actually wanted to really be his own apprentice, not to deal with people who just wanted to come here to gild.

However, as Aaron said, he will go to the elves in thirty days. Judging from the current situation, the trip to the east has been full of difficulties, and it may not be possible to return if you go. In these thirty days, I can only learn as much swordsmanship as possible, of course, if I can learn swordsmanship, it is best to have at least a means to save my life.

"Won't you be able to study after thirty days? Forget it, I won't get involved in your own family's affairs, you can do it yourself. Clifford clapped his hands, "Don't forget to tell your father that he should quickly take out the money, as well as his own, twenty years, and the interest should be two hundred gold coins." ”

"Teacher, I'll be here today first, and I'll be here tomorrow. The young man looked at the sky, the sun had set, and was about to say goodbye to Clifford.

After receiving an affirmative answer from Clifford, the young man came to Aaron's side again and bent down slightly: "You are the future Duke Razor, it's a pleasure to see you today." ”

"Are you ......" Aaron was a little confused by the sudden greeting, and looked at the young man, who should be about seventeen years old, and his long flowing silver hair was stuck to his forehead because of sweat. His skin was white and tender, and his appearance was exquisite, and if he hadn't seen him on his chest, Aaron would have thought that this young man was a woman.

"It's normal that you don't know me, I just recently came to Hankyo to learn swordsmanship from Mr. Clifford. Well, Hankyo is a nice place, the ladies are very welcoming, and the men are very polite. I think it's because Duke Mitulin is a very great duke that makes Tanya so good. The young man spoke to Aaron.

"Thank you for your compliment, that, I want to ask, who are you?" Aaron scratched his head, this young man is too familiar, right?

"I'm sorry, but when I saw Your Excellency, I only remember to say what I felt in my heart, and I forgot my name. My name is Grant Rice, my father is Wild Rice, and I'm from Ancient Menlia. The young man finally said his name.

"Wilder Rice?" Aaron whispered the two names, very familiar, but unable to remember them for a moment.

Where is this place in Tanya, and why is the name so familiar?

Watching Grant gradually leave his field of vision, Aaron still didn't remember.

"When everyone is gone, don't look any further. I only knew that you liked women, but now I know that you still like men. Alas, these young people now. Crayford sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Bah, teacher, what are you thinking? Don't insult me, okay? I just think the name Wildrice is so familiar. Aaron, in order to preserve his dignity, immediately explained.

"Familiar? Hehe, can you not be familiar? Wilder Rice is the father-in-law of the current emperor, and you still have to call that man uncle?" Credford smirked.

This is good, not only has there been an extra cheap father, but also a cheap uncle. It's a hard life.

The current emperor of Ravel's empire, Delon Escuri, is sixty-nine years old, and six years ago, the woman with whom he had spent half his life died, and Delon the Great was devastated by the death of the woman with whom he had spent half his life. But only two years later, Emperor Delon married the eighteen-year-old girl Quintina Lyce, and her father, Wild Rice, became a marquis. This should be called the counterattack of **silk.

At this time, Aaron remembered that Ancient Menlia was the most developed city in Tanya before Miturin arrived in Tanya. To this day, ancient Menlia still has a name called "Companion Capital", which is the default of the residents of Tanya, the capital outside of Hankyo.
