Roddy has always been a very responsible person. He didn't have much ambition and preferred a peaceful, free, lazy life - swearing to the Almighty God that Roddy's greatest wish was simply to be able to pass the academy's swordsmanship test next month and become the lowest swordsman...... This is already the biggest wish that the dead ghost dad had for Roddy when he was alive......

Of course, it would be great if God could give him a good-looking and lovely boy before his eighteen-year-old birthday, and let him end that embarrassing virgin career......

Sadly, Roddy knew that his wish would be difficult to fulfill...... The truth is obvious, although he is still very confident in his swordsmanship at the moment, he knows that his biggest problem is not to pass the exam...... Rather, the tuition fee required to continue to the next stage of the course after passing the exam is not covered at all...... However, if he could get the top three in the sword skills test, he could get a generous bonus according to the Imperial Education Regulations, which would be enough for all of his future tuition fees at the Academy.

But Roddy was in his right mind, and he knew that the people who won the top three every year were either the sons of a certain earl's family or the sons of a general's family...... Damn, those people are not short of money at all, so why do they come to compete with us poor children for such a pitiful little prize? For those people, the title of the top three is just a title for the nobles to show off to each other in the game......

As for the issue of women, Roddy is even more daring to hope. In good conscience, he looks pretty good. He had a tall and straight figure that ordinary nobles did not have, and from the outside, he was still a standard man, but it was a pity that God seemed to deliberately rectify him, leaving a mark of life on his face - a black, palm-sized birthmark covered the left half of his cheek, making his face, which should have fascinated thousands of girls, into a veritable yin and yang face......

Roddy was completely frustrated by this, and he already knew very well that if he wanted a woman to look at him, unless that woman was blind, or that woman had a problem with her brain...... Roddy is not interested in women who are blind or have brain problems......

Roddy sat down on the only bed in the room, and plucked from the wall the only thing of value in the room—the Imperial standard samurai sword—which Roddy had bought for three silver coins. In fact, he was not qualified to use the longsword at the moment, as his swordsman exam would not be held until next month, and he was not eligible to wear a weapon until he passed the exam and received the title of swordsman. You must know that in the Empire, except for nobles, professional soldiers, and people with various samurai titles, ordinary civilians are not qualified to carry any weapons!

Luckily, he also has an Imperial Academy student ID, which allows him to wear weapons within the Imperial Academy school.

Roddy picked up his only silk scarf that was still clean and gently wiped the blade of the long sword. I thought back to the sword moves and techniques taught by Mr. Shalu in this morning's sword fighting class.

In fact, Mr. Sharu knew that these young students under his command would participate in the Imperial Academy's annual sword skills test next month, so he had a special training session in the past few days. Luo Di is a student that Sha Lu admires very much, and Sha Lu once said to Luo Di in private that according to Luo Di's strength, passing the assessment is almost certain, and his strength has long exceeded the standard of a first-level swordsman - in fact, according to Sha Lu's teacher, Luo Di is the best student he has taught over the years, and he is a genius - Of course, although everyone knows that Luo Di's skills are indeed good, but no one takes Mr. Shalu's words about genius seriously, after all, the old man himself has never taught a student above the third level of swordsman for many years, what kind of genius can such a crappy teacher teach? The only trouble for Luo Di to pass the assessment is not to meet the rock instructor who always likes to go against Shalu teacher - the people in the academy know that the rock instructor has always been not very harmonious with Sharu teacher - It seems that it was due to the love I had for a certain female teacher a few years ago. The two always find an opportunity to try to make trouble for each other - this time, it was Mr. Shalu's students who participated in the assessment, and Instructor Rock was likely to be one of the judges of the assessment.

If you talk about Roddy's mood at the moment, it is: depressed, depressed, or depressed!

Hanging up the long sword, Luo Di rummaged through the wardrobe for a long time, and finally turned out a fairly clean and beautiful samurai cadet uniform to put on. Decided to go outside. He hesitated, not taking his longsword with him...... Maybe he'll have to go out outside the school, maybe buy some cheap bread for tomorrow's food - he doesn't want to go out into the street with a weapon and be taken back to the police station by the patrolling soldiers!

Roddy walked out of his room, and the hallway was filled with the smell of damp and moldy. Even though he had been tormented by the smell for almost two years, Roddy still couldn't get used to it.

This is the cheapest student dormitory in the Imperial Academy, and the price of living for a year is only five silver coins, but the environment is also terrifying.

This is still thanks to the great sage of the empire two hundred years ago, the great sage Danton, who set off a series of reforms within the empire, greatly increasing the national power of the empire, and in his later years, he persuaded His Majesty the emperor of the empire to allow commoners to enter the Imperial Academy to study. and personally served as the president of the Imperial College. Although he was strongly protested by the nobles, he still carved out a piece of land in the Imperial Academy to accommodate the civilian cadets, and the building where Luo Di lived at the moment was the civilian cadet residential area built by Dandong when he was the principal of the year.

In good conscience, the building was good, for it could accommodate two hundred civilian cadets, and each of them could live in a single room, though it was too small, not much bigger than a pigeon cage. It's just that after Danton's death, the principals of the empire were all nobles, and it was already a special favor for those old men to not completely drive the civilian students out of the Imperial Academy - of course, it was also out of respect for the will of His Majesty the Fifth Emperor of the Empire. However, these nobles did not spend another copper plate on the renovation of the building - as it has been for two hundred years!

Roddy cautiously walked slowly down the stairs, careful with every step he took. God knows if those wooden floors will be able to bear their weight after two hundred years of corrosion. He didn't want to be the first swordsman in the Empire's centuries-old history to fall down the stairs and fall to his death.

Although there was a frightening creaking sound from time to time, the stairs finally came to an end. Roddy pushed open the door hopefully and walked out of the building.

The weather looks good tonight, and there is still a moon in the sky! He walked over the path, walked to another building where civilian cadets lived, and shouted to the second floor: "Star!!!!

Before he could shout a second time, a window on the second floor slammed open, revealing a head with long colored hair.

"Roddy, stupid, be quiet!" Starr's face was a little flustered, and she looked left and right for a moment, then opened the window completely, and her whole body stretched out and jumped down from the window on the second floor.

His body was very dexterous, and when he landed, he cleverly rolled on the ground to slow down the impact, and then easily stood up, patted the dust on his body casually, and smiled at Luo Di: "Okay, my swordsman, let's go." ”

Roddy frowned and looked at him: "You climbed the window again? Aren't you afraid of being seen? You know, although it's night, you still have to be careful!"

If Roddy is a civilian cadet with a difficult life, then Star is a veritable poor ghost.

He couldn't even afford to pay the rent of five silver coins a year, and since last month, Star has been kicked out of the school from the residential area, and if he hadn't paid a year's worth of tuition, he probably wouldn't have been able to keep his status as a student.

But people like Star won't honestly keep to themselves. The school's security team had just watched him move out, and he had secretly moved back to that room on his own.

Anyway, in the past few years, there have been very few civilian cadets in the Imperial Academy. Even if he moved out of Star's house, no one would live in it. And the terrible environment, and the smell of dilapidated buildings that have corroded for hundreds of years, make it impossible for the school's security team to come here to check on anything. That's why Starr is blatantly white!

Star patted Roddy on the shoulder, he was short, a head shorter than Roddy. But he has a face that Roddy envies, and that handsome face is enough to make Star comfortable in front of girls, and according to Star's own private statement, he said goodbye to his embarrassing virginity three years ago.

If Star's status as a warlock has never been envied by Roddy, but this one has made Roddy's eyes red!

Facing his best friend, Roddy sighed: "Okay, where are we going?"

Star rolled his eyes and whispered in a very mysterious tone, "Roddy, do you want to make a fortune?

Make hay?

Roddy's eyes lit up immediately! What he needed most now was money! Without money, even if he passed the swordsmanship exam next month and became a real swordsman, he would not have enough money to pay for the next year's tuition.

"What can you do about it?" Roddy glared at his best friend.

Star chuckled, "It's a bit risky, but I've tried it, and I'll be honest with you, I'll be sure to pay for next year's tuition." Originally, I was still worried, because I didn't think this method was suitable for you, but seeing that you have been crazy about money recently, I might as well pull you along. ”

Roddy immediately showed a vigilant look on his face, he knew too well the lawless surname of his good friend, and listening to his tone, this way of making money was obviously not a fair and honest way.

"Don't look at me like that! Roddy!" Star nudged Roddy, pulled him into a remote path in the academy, and looked at the left and right that there was really no one on the left and right, so he whispered, "I have met a few people recently, they are all doing some special business, and now they just need a few people...... Temporary, get the money when you're done, and then go your own way! Of course, you need to take a little risk. I've tried it though, I've only done it once, and it's enough for me to earn a year's worth of tuition!"

"Yes...... Is it an illegal business?" Roddy struggled to spit out the word "illegal".

Star rolled her eyes with a "nonsense" expression.

"Okay!" Roddy sighed, "You can take me to see it first!"

As Luo Di nodded slowly, he didn't know that this nod was the beginning of an endless colorful legend in his body!

And what Roddy didn't expect was that at the moment, his two biggest wishes, whether it was about money or about women, had changed a lot after tonight......
