Chapter 19: Peeking
Sheena's arrival did not disrupt Levi's daily rhythm.
Every morning, he would go to the city to relax as usual, go to the city lord's mansion to eat and drink, and occasionally go to a tavern or something like the other to have a dashing time, which fully demonstrated the qualities that a gentleman should have.
In the afternoon, behind closed doors, he fought with Yard between men.
Since discovering that combat training can speed up the digestion of pollution, Levi's enthusiasm for training has suddenly increased a lot.
In this regard, Yade is also very happy, after all, the stronger Levi becomes, the more likely he is to protect himself at critical moments.
Whether it is himself or the witch beside Levi, in the final analysis, it is an external force.
Bodyguards, no matter how professional they are, there will always be times when they accidentally miss.
At that time, Levi's own strength may become the decisive hand.
With a wooden sword in both hands, Levi kept attacking from all angles, trying to break through Yard's defenses.
However, no matter what method he used, under Yard's monster-like dynamic vision, they were all resolved one by one.
As Yard swung his sword and shouted that training was over, Levi took two steps back and plunged the wooden sword into the ground.
"Yard, how do I feel, I've been practicing for so long, and I haven't made much progress."
"If this continues, how can I become the number one in the empire?"
Hearing Levi's words, the corners of Yard's eyes twitched.
"My lord, we've been practicing for less than ten days, and it has nothing to do with the word 'long'."
"Also, there's one more thing you said that you're not right."
"No progress? The speed of your progress, if you say it, can make countless knights go crazy with jealousy......"
He smacked his lips: "In just the past few days, your physical strength has crossed the threshold of the second star with one foot. ”
"Normally, if a one-star knight wants to take this step, he must train in the knight order for at least two or three years!"
Levi was slightly stunned: "This is two stars?" But why can't I feel it? ”
Yard smiled: "Because I am a four-star knight, there is a fundamental difference between me and a one-star and two-star, not to mention that you haven't reached a two-star yet, even if you break through a two-star, or even a three-star, it is impossible to break my defense." ”
"Knights below three stars, and knights above three stars, are completely two worlds."
"More than eighty percent of the knights of the empire will be stuck at the peak of the three stars for the rest of their lives...... The Royal Knights invited me because I had crossed the threshold of four stars. ”
Levi nodded: "I understand, from today onwards, my goal is to rush to the five-star as soon as possible and beat Yade!" ”
Yard: "......"
He originally subconsciously wanted to be happy, but after thinking about it, he felt that with all the magic that Li Wei had shown before, he might really break through the five-star one day.
Not to mention anything else, if an ordinary spar knight wants to level up, he must have a large amount of resources to supply.
And Levi, as long as there is a witch around him to suck it.
Moreover, every time the spar knight rises to a star, there is an obvious bottleneck, which must be crossed by talent and understanding.
As for Levi, as long as he keeps digesting the power of the witch's pollution, he can do it.
In contrast, the probability of Li Wei rushing to five stars is ridiculously high.
When the time comes, you won't really be beaten, right?
A muscular hunk knight who is plunged into melancholy for the future.
When Yard doubted his life, Levi sat down and took a few sips from the kettle next to him.
Lilith walked over and expertly wiped the sweat from his face with a wet towel.
Enjoying the service of a long black straight girl, Levi squinted his eyes like a cat being petted.
When the two of them were training just now, Lilith had been reading a book in the corner of the yard.
While wiping Levi's sweat, she looked around strangely.
"Levi, Thea isn't like this with you?"
"I told her to go out for a walk." Levi replied casually, "Staying at home all the time is not conducive to physical and mental health. ”
Lilith was a little surprised: "But, in case she is seen......"
"Don't worry, that guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, in our group, when it comes to chicken thieves, no one can compare to her."
"Hmph, the witch of the fox, sure enough, there is only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname."
"If one day, we people are calculated and all fall into the trap, then the hope of turning the tables will definitely lie in that guy Xiya."
As he spoke, Levi picked up the kettle and poured another sip.
Hearing that Levi had such "trust" in Thea, Lilith smiled.
"Originally, I was a little worried that there would be obstacles for Levi and Xiya to get along, but now it seems that your relationship has also changed a lot."
"Me? And Thea? ”
Levi snorted and shook his head noncommittally.
…………
……
More than ten kilometers outside the silver collar, several people were riding horses and were running fast.
Among these people, there were three strong men in armor, carrying large swords inlaid with spars on their backs, and one-shoulder capes embroidered with red dragons.
If you are familiar with the imperial establishment, you can recognize at a glance that these three strong men are actually four-star knights of the Royal Knights!
A team of five people has three royal knights, even in the Red Dragon Empire, it can be called luxurious.
The man in the lead, wearing a black cloak.
After seeing a grove in the distance, he slowed down and stopped.
After unfolding the map and looking at it, the man nodded to the people behind him.
When the group rode to the woods, they saw a strong man in armor standing quietly.
Seeing a few people coming, the strong man said in a deep voice: "Where did you come from?" ”
"The royal capital." The black-robed man said lightly, "I came on the orders of that adult." ”
Hearing this, the strong man breathed a sigh of relief and took out a picture from his arms.
"This is what you want, a topographic map of the mountains west of the Silver Territory."
The black-robed man stretched out his hand on the horse, but the strong man didn't give it to him directly.
He said solemnly: "My family has already guessed your purpose, so before handing over this picture to you, I must confirm that if the Witch of the Night dies, do you have the ability to wipe your ass for this incident?" ”
The black-robed man snorted, "Are you suspicious of that adult?" ”
The strong man shook his head: "Don't dare, but this matter is about tens of thousands of people in the silver collar, and it can't be a child's play." ”
The black-robed man looked at him silently for a few seconds.
"Go back and tell Lotto and reassure him that as soon as the Witch of the Night and Levi Black are dead, we will send the Witch to solve this incident."
"After that, the witch will stay directly in the silver collar and take care of your family's home, how is it, satisfied?"
The strong man breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"Then, I will thank the Lord for his kindness on behalf of my family."
He raised his arm, presented the map, and both looked at each other and smiled.
In the distance, a blonde girl sat on a tall tree branch, smiling at the scene.
It's just that there is no smile in those eyes.
When the people she had met had left, she jumped down lightly, fell to the ground, and walked in the direction she had come.
