Chapter 10 Self-cultivation of the shield

"Hahaha. ”

“...... What are you laughing at?" Emilia didn't expect her sincere apology to be ridiculed, embarrassed and remorseful, staring at Edward viciously.

"Haha, what did I just hear? That big idiot finally admitted that he was an idiot!hahahaha. ”

"I'm an idiot. You're happy!?"

"No, no, no......"

Edward struggled to stop laughing as he slowly lifted his arm.

He was so enchanted by Emilia's stubborn eyes that he even once sneaked up on her cheek while she was unconscious.

Now, he suddenly felt the urge to savor Emilia's smooth cheeks with his five fingers. That stupid guy is actually really cute.

But he couldn't succeed, and the groping pig hand that reached into the air was slapped away by Emilia.

"What do you want to do!?" asked Emilia angrily.

"Brave man, has anyone ever told you that you don't look like a girl at all, but like a man?"

"......" Emilia was poked in the sore spot and said nothing.

"Haha, I know, someone must have said it, right? They're all wrong, and they're outrageously wrong!" Edward said with a smile, "Where do you look like a man? You're just a pure girl, and you're very little girl, and you're very cute!"

"Oh......" sounded weird, and Emilia didn't know whether to refute or agree.

"Occasionally playing a little temper, knowing how to apologize when I make a mistake, and being willing to face my own surname and recklessness, it's cute, isn't it? An ordinary girl, a cute girl, not a machine that only knows how to fight and kill. ”

"......" Emilia is thinking about whether or not to kill this pervert with one punch.

"You want to prove yourself? Well, I forgive you. This is the first time we've worked together. Hey, I really should commemorate it~~~"

"......" Emilia stared at Edward with a confused expression.

First time working together?

The audience quickly woke up from their stupor, and they all stared at Emilia with the eyes of a monster, and their eyes were full of fear and curiosity, and no one dared to approach them. So a large open space appeared around Emilia, and no one dared to approach her.

"Next, next, Edward!"

"Finally it was my turn. Hey, Lord Brave, I definitely owe you in my last life. Edward sighed helplessly, "This mess can only be cleaned up by me for you......"

His quiz began.

There were new students waiting to take the quiz in the crowd, and there were also many passers-by who joined in the fun. Whoever it is, they are attracted by Emilia's performance that has just exceeded their imagination, and there are more and more people around the venue.

"Night. Edward glanced at the night.

"Master, the night understands. ”

With just one look, Night immediately understood what Edward meant. She stepped on the moon shadow and quietly left the crowd, her figure turning into an inconspicuous black mist, hiding in a dark corner, quietly observing everyone's every move. As long as there is a little abnormality, she will use Bai Yue to cut that person's neck for the first time.

"I don't really want to play this kind of child's game. Edward walked to the ring and shouted at the audience.

No one knew who he was demonstrating to, but the gray-haired old man in the audience looked even more ugly.

"The first one is a strength test. Is this kind of tattered dummy very sturdy?" said Edward disdainfully.

"Hmph, what do you know? I kind of try it!" John in the audience couldn't stand Edward's arrogance, and shouted loudly.

Emilia shocked him too much. The test he had worked so hard to pass was so easy under Emilia's hands. What does the comparison between the two mean?

Is Emily Asia strong, or is he too weak?

That handsome girl looked as beautiful as a goddess, and her thin figure could be blown down by a gust of wind, and few people would think that she had great strength.

In other words, it's not that Emily Asia is strong, it's that he himself is too weak.

This fact, John could not accept.

"What's the noise? You're the dead fat guy who rolled on the ground just now, isn'......t it?" said Edward to John with a smile.

"Who are you scolding for being a dead fat man?"

"I'll scold whoever talks to me!" Edward pouted cheaply, "Dead fatty, let me ask you, you used a knight's sword just now, right?"

"Yes!" replied John, exclaiming.

"Oh, that's good. Edward found a knight's sword and held it casually in his hand, "I want to prove to you that there is no difficulty in breaking this test at all. So, I'll just use the weapons you used. ”

Swords are provided by Hogg House, and they are all standard standard weapons, and this knight's sword is no exception.

"Boy, don't be arrogant, let's start quickly!"

"Hehe, I'm afraid that you will say that I cheat, so I said a few more words. ”

"Cheating?It's up to you, can you still cheat?Hmph, what do you think of Hogg House?!"

As soon as John's words came out, the followers were like clouds. The audience did not believe that this silver-haired boy with wild words could perform more amazingly than Emilia, and accused him of being incompetent.

"Hey, stupid bunch. Edward shrugged.

Facts speak louder than words, and Edward will use his actions to silence them.

He walked up to the battle dummy and quietly admired it.

It didn't take long for him to slowly raise his hand holding the sword, put it next to his shoulder, tilt his head, and gently swing a sword.

His movements were as gentle as water, as if he was not swinging a sword, but caressing someone's face.

With a loud bang, the iron blade suddenly embedded in the dummy's body.

The audience thought he was about to swing his sword again, continuing the attack from the same position. However, what they didn't expect was that the blade embedded in the dummy did not stop moving forward, but invaded deeper and deeper along the gap, until finally it completely passed through the entire dummy and slid out from the other side.

The dummy was cut off by Edward's sword, and large pieces of the wreckage fell to the ground, scattering fragments, and there was a terrifying gap on the knight's sword, and most of the sword was curled up due to the force.

In front of John, in front of Kane, and in front of everyone, Edward easily cut the dummy in two with such a casual sword.

"You see, that's just it. Before I could exert any force, it collapsed. Edward said with a smile.

Why is this happening?

The same weapon, the same test, why, with such an understatement, could he do what John had wasted all his strength?

Could it be that he, like Emilia, is also a fourth-level warrior?

Now, those who had questioned Edward were all silent, and John clenched his teeth and hid in the crowd with a black face.

Edward smirked at the men's expressions. His purpose has been achieved.

Emilia impulsively puts on a stunning performance that ordinary people can't do, and Edward's task is to cover up her brilliance, find a way to make her performance look less amazing, and reduce people's attention to her.

The answer is simple, just do it better and more amazing than her.

What the brave can do, of course the Demon King can do, and he can do it even better! Edward proved to all the freshmen with his actions that in fact, the test in Hogg House was not difficult, and Amilia's performance was not outstanding at all.

He chooses to sacrifice himself and take all the hatred and attention on himself in this way to deal with the mess Emilia has left him.

The red-eyed girl in the audience bit her lip lightly and lowered her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

The Hogg House quiz is simple, this kind of thing...... Those freshmen who failed the test will not admit it, those lucky ones who have worked hard to pass the test will not agree, and Kane, the headmaster of Hogg House, will not agree!

As the president, he wants to uphold the dignity of the college!

So, the white-haired old man quietly walked to the edge of the ring, looked left and right, and then focused his attention on the palm of his hand.

Several near-transparent magic chains appeared in the palm of his hand, and those chains seemed to have eyes, silently burrowing into the magic circle engraved in the center of the ring, and with Kane's orders, the gods unconsciously painted all kinds of strange symbols.

The magic circle is the core of the enchantment, and any slight change can have a drastic impact on the enchantment as a whole. Although on the surface the enchantment is still the original enchantment, the internal structure of the magic array has undergone a fundamental change, and the original enchantment has become another unknown thing.

Whether the current barrier is a tool for testing or a death trap, only Kane himself knows.

If Edward had passed the skills test as easily as Emilia, wouldn't Hoag House really become a joke? Headmaster Kane wouldn't have been able to hold his head up if he hadn't been disgraced.

He wanted to take the opportunity to test Edward and Amilia, but he didn't expect that the person who lost face in the end turned out to be himself.

He couldn't do that much now, just hoping that Edward would lose the skill test, even if he would hurt Edward. Anyway, he is proficient in medicine, and he was able to pull Emilia back from the clutches of death, and he was not afraid that he would not be able to save a little Edward.

His movements were so meticulous that no one noticed that the barrier had been manipulated by him. Except, of course, night......

His movements did not escape the eyes of the night. The night lurking in the shadows first noticed Kane's small movements, and signaled Edward to be careful with a concerned look.

Edward understood.

Next, the second item is a skills test.

He threw away the broken knight's sword and replaced it with a new one, and walked into the enchantment with a smile, as if it was not a terrible trap at all, but the back garden of his own home.

He didn't know exactly what Kane had done to the enchantment, but he knew that the next test would be difficult. But......

Hmph, that's exactly what I want! I'm afraid it's not hard enough, it's not amazing enough, it's not eye-catching enough! I'm going to make a stumbling block on it, I can't ask for it! That way, I'll be able to turn people's attention to myself completely!

Standing within the barrier, Edward deliberately imitated Emilia's movements, holding the knight's sword in his backhand, and greeted the coming stormy missile with a light and breezy attitude.

Circles of dazzling light appeared around Edward, a sign of the activation of the magical barrier.

Then, he closed his eyes.
