It is a jungle located in the southernmost part of the kingdom of Dehio on the southern continent.

This jungle is full of all kinds of dangerous flora and fauna, and everyone knows that no one can survive here.

There are still many people who challenge this jungle in order to achieve their ambitions and even the dangers, but the results are always cruel.

Some people go on adventures in search of treasures, some come to catch rare animals, and some come to collect precious medicinal herbs.

These people quickly lost their way after entering the jungle, died in fierce battles for survival, and never came back alive.

Later generations called it the Jungle of Death, and the land became untouched.

But on the outskirts of this dangerous jungle, a girl of about ten years old was sitting on a towering tree.

The girl had a serious expression on her face, and at this time she was closing one eye and holding a pointed stone in her hand, drawing while composing.

While the girl was concentrating on drawing, between the branches of the trees, a woman stretched out a hook from the magic circle conjured by her left hand, and the woman walked all the way to sit beside the girl as if walking a tightrope.

She seemed to think that the girl who was drawing was cute, and said with a smile.

"Latia, where are you painting again?"

"Well, Sister Lu Ya, look at this, guess what it is?"

"Hmm...... Cockroaches crawling on earthworms? "

"……"

The girl named Latiya confidently asked about her painting, but seemed to be surprised by her sister's answer, and for a moment showed a depressed expression.

Seeing her sister with such an expression, Lu Ya seemed to be accustomed to it, and asked unhurriedly.

"Latia, what are you drawing?"

"I'm drawing the village that is out on the horizon."

"Ah...... I see. "

I saw that the entangled lines on the painting were difficult to distinguish the shape, and I couldn't tell that it was a village when I looked left and right, but for the sake of her lovely sister, Lu Ya still pretended to agree with her painting skills.

Lu Ya has always felt that painting skills will definitely get better and better, but now compared to her sister's painting skills, Lu Ya is more worried about her curiosity about the outside world.

Although the endless horizon seemed quiet and peaceful, Lu Ya looked at the outside world with an expression that was completely different from that of a young girl.

"Latia, do you want to take a look outside?"

"Hmm...... There are so many trees in the jungle, it's so boring. I really want to go to that grassland and have fun bouncing. ”

Lu Ya looked at her sister who seemed to want to run to the grassland immediately, and said with a serious face.

"Hmm...... But the adults have said that even if the outside world seems peaceful, there will be hungry people fighting each other. It's like that grassland, you see there's nowhere to hide, wouldn't it be too dangerous if you met the bad guys? "

"Hmmm......"

"Yes, it is a blessing from God that we can live in the jungle, with these trees guarding us and countless prey to feed us."

"Hmmm......"

"Then it's not too late today, let's go back, I caught the snake you like, you can see."

"Yes, sister."

Luya took Latiya in her arms and jumped down from the tree with her arms outstretched, as light as flying.

Although the sun had set at this moment and it was dark in front of them, the two sisters were not panicked.

Lu Ya, who was ready to go back to the village, looked at the bright stars in the sky, and even in the darkness she could recognize the direction back to the village.

Lu Ya was afraid of getting lost with her sister in the dark, so she held her sister's small hand tightly and walked carefully among the trees.

And behind the two sisters, who looked extremely ordinary, dragged an anaconda that did not fit in.

The next day.

Still ignoring her sister's warning, Latia climbed onto the tree on the edge of the jungle, muttering as she watched the world outside.

"It's my birthday soon, and I won't even be able to come here then."

The girl seemed to know that as soon as her tenth birthday was over, she would start training as a warrior, and her face was full of depression and anger.

Then, just as she looked at the village she had painted yesterday, she saw that the village was different from yesterday, and gray smoke was rising.

Latiya's curiosity sparked for a moment, and she squinted hard and looked at it carefully with a pair of piercing eyes.

"Huh? What's going on? "

Seeing the puffs of smoke, coupled with the sound of drums and hornets that were not too loud but clear enough, the girl was sure that there should be some festival in the village.

"Is it possible...... Is it a festive day? "

The girl is already curious, and having the opportunity to see the festivals of the outside world is naturally an extremely sweet temptation for her, and it is also the only choice she can make.

"Okay, I'll take a look and I'll be back."

The girl secretly rationalized her longing, and ran across the border of the jungle towards the grassland of her heart.

The maiden who stepped into the grassland for the first time enjoyed a freedom that she had never had in the jungle before, and she crossed the grassland and ran excitedly towards the village.

But the scene in the village is the opposite of what Latiya imagined to be a festival.

The village, which had thought it was going on a festival, was now being attacked by a group of demons with green skin and lower fangs protruding like fangs.

The demons excitedly burned, killed and looted, regardless of men, women and children, killing people when they saw them, and wreaked havoc on the food and property of every household along the way.

Faced with such a miserable scene, Latiya covered her mouth with trembling hands, and watched this scene with a pair of frightened eyes like a white rabbit.

The old man cried and prayed for help,

Men are fighting to protect their families with farm tools in their hands.

In order to protect the child, the women used their bodies to resist the demons,

The children trembled with fear and couldn't stop crying.

Latia looked at the children who had died in vain, and gradually clenched her trembling hands, and the anger burning in her heart gradually masked her fear.

Seeing that a girl of the same age as herself was captured by the demons in front of her, Latia, who was full of anger, subconsciously threw the stone out and screamed loudly.

"Stop!"

Several demons were startled by the sudden flying stones, put down the girl in their hands, and stared angrily at the direction where the stones were flying.

Latiya was frightened by her sudden demeanor, and in the face of the murderous eyes of the demons, her hands and feet trembled involuntarily.

But the anger in her heart that had not yet been extinguished made her eyes and spirit sober up again.

Seeing that the angry demons were planning to come and capture him in place of the girl who had just let go, Latiya tried her best to desperately flee to the jungle.

Latiya panted and tried her best to cross the grassland, but the angry demons still chased after her.

Seeing the demons chasing closer and closer, Latiya was in a hurry and couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly, so she tripped over the stones under her feet.

There was nowhere to hide in this desolate vast grassland, and the fear of death struck, and the girl was frightened into a cold sweat, and at this moment she began to regret that she had not listened to her sister.

The demon looked at the tripped girl, smiled with interest, and immediately raised the weapon in his hand to wave it, and the girl was so frightened that she closed her eyes.

At this moment, on the land touched by the girl's palm, there was a sudden tremor and sound of something rapidly approaching.

This sudden sound made the demons panic, and hurriedly looked around, and several demons hurriedly blew the horn flute, as if they intended to call for reinforcements.

Porphyry~

This unexpected change made the girl open her eyes again, only to see a figure flying across her, directly piercing the chest of the demon who played the horn flute.

Riding on a huge white horse, this person galloped into the group of demons surrounding the girl, wearing bright armor with white wings, and roared at the demons.

When Latiya saw him descending from the sky, she suddenly remembered that this person was none other than the legendary warrior Shujia in the mouth of the clan, and looked at the other party in distraction for a while.

This person's movements were fast and precise, the lightning speed of the attack was dazzling, and the bright armor reflected the light from the sky and radiated in all directions, as if it was a light passing through the girl's eyes.

At this moment on the grassland, as long as there is a light split, a demon will fall, and all the demons who saw all this were frightened and fled.

Seeing this scene, Latia had the belief to live, and gradually calmed down the trembling of her hands and feet, but she could not calm her pounding heart.

The man looked at the fleeing demons, hurriedly walked to the girl who was looking at him in a trance, stretched out his hand and said.

"Girl, maybe there will be other demons attacking, come here."

But after the girl picked up a life, she seemed to be relieved suddenly, and no matter what the other party said, she pointed directly to the village she had just escaped.

"Uncle, there are also vicious demons in that village, please save them first."

"You don't have to worry about the village, come first. Those demons have already sounded their horns and called for reinforcements, and soon more demons will kill them. "

The man continued to urge the girl to get on the horse, and when he saw that the demon clan had regrouped in the distance, he picked the girl up on the horse's back and galloped all the way.

"Uncle, but there are still vicious demons in that village."

"Don't worry, our Knights will be here soon."

Hearing this, the girl soon saw that a knight order had arrived at the village, where they drove away the demons and saved the villagers.

The girl's heart boiled when she saw these people save the village from the demons, and a thrill that she had never experienced so far lit up in her bright eyes.

The man rode the girl all the way to the village, and when he noticed that there was something strange about the girl's words and deeds, he asked.

"Aren't you from this village?"

"Yes, I live in that jungle."

"Jungle?"

"Yes."

The man rode in the direction of the girl's finger, wondering if there was a new home near the dead jungle in the distance.

"Uncle, who are you? Could it be that you are the legendary warrior Shuja? "

"Shuja? No, I'm Roland the knight. "

Roland was a little surprised that the girl had no head and no brain, and reported her identity and name.

"Knights? What is a knight? "

"Hmm...... A knight is a man who saves those who are in danger. "

"The one who saves the man in danger?"

Living in a jungle world where the jungle is the strongest, and it is rare for a girl to come into contact with a stranger she has never met, she asks rhetorically as she tries to recall a similar situation.

"Ah, it's like Starlight that helps point you in the direction when you're lost?"

"Starlight?"

"Yes, Starlight will help people who are in danger because they get lost."

"Hmm...... It's a little similar......"

The little girl's simple explanation made him a little confused, but he catered to the child's thinking and expressed his affirmation.

Not long after the two finished talking, they reached the edge of the jungle, and Roland looked around at the home and asked the girl in his arms.

"I'm going back to your house, what's next?"

Hearing this, the child flew off his horse and said as he handed over the leopard-print pendant hanging from his neck.

"This is my home, thank you for saving me, this is to thank you."

"Huh?"

As soon as the words fell, the girl skillfully burrowed into the jungle, and Roland looked at the girl's back in disbelief.

Seeing the girl's familiar posture, as if she really regarded this uninhabited jungle of death as her home, Roland couldn't help but rub her eyes, as if she had just had a dream.

Here Roland still thought he was hallucinating, full of suspicion, and over there Latia was already walking towards the village with happy steps.

Seeing her sister return to the village, Lu Ya looked at her sister's soiled clothes and walked over to ask.

"Latia, what's wrong with your clothes? Is this where to roll? "

"Starlight, knight."

"What are you talking about? Latia, I'm going to catch your favorite snake today, too. "

Hearing what her sister said, Latia remembered the horse the knight had ridden just now, and hurriedly said as she drew her fingers on the ground.

"Sister, I don't want snakes, I want to grow into such an animal."

Seeing that her sister was still drawing a bunch of entangled lines like a snake, Lu Ya, who couldn't recognize her, replied with an embarrassed face.

"yes, I caught the snake and came back."

"……"

Shocked to see that Luya couldn't recognize the painting she had drawn with all her might, Latia shouted as she ran towards the village.

"Sister, I hate you!"

"This girl is really weird today. Latia, wait for me! "

Lu Ya looked at her sister, who was particularly strange today, tilted her head in confusion, and soon ran over to chase Latiya again.

A few days later.

From that day on, Latia stopped looking at the outside world and became more concerned with the weapons she used for her training.

Latiya was disappointed to see that she had been given a light and easy to use spear for children, rather than the kind of spear used by knights.

Dreaming of becoming a knight, Latia sweated profusely and began cutting down trees in order to make a weapon similar to the spear used by the knight.

"What are you doing, Latia?"

"Make weapons."

"What weapon? Don't you like the weapons your sister made you? "

"Well, that's too short, I like to be a little longer and a little sharper."

"Latiya, everyone started with this short weapon."

"That's not the case with knights."

"Huh? Knight? Why are you talking about knights again? "

Despite her sister's best efforts, Lathia polished it for several days, producing a spear similar to the one used by the knight.

Although the rough spear she made with her own hands was not only longer and heavier than the short spear made by her sister, but it was also difficult to wield, she held this spear every day to imitate a knight.

"Haha, don't thank me too much, I'm the first knight of the jungle."

Seeing this scene, Lu Ya shook her head frequently, more worried than when Latia was going to see the outside world.

"What the hell is wrong with this girl......

Soon after, Latiya celebrated her tenth birthday and began training as a warrior.

"Ratiya, are you ready for training?"

"Hmm."

"By the way, are you really going to train with this spear?"

Holding the spear as tall as herself in both hands, Latia replied without hesitation as if it were a matter of course for her sister's question.

"Hmm!"

Luya shook her head, as if she couldn't resist her sister's stubbornness, and began with the history of the race and a ritual called Magati.

The Moyu Spirit Hook clan has been hunting nomadically since ancient times.

Because the fast-moving animals are difficult to hunt, the whole clan can only find some dying animals, or snatch prey from other animals to survive and survive.

After years of wandering, the clan finally found this vibrant jungle and met a legendary warrior named Shuja.

Through the Magati ritual, Shuja taught the whole clan how to use the spirit hook and how to live in the jungle.

The whole clan regarded Shuja as the embodiment of the black panther and worshipped him as a god, and also called himself the Ink Feather Spirit Hook, which means the black claw that follows Shuja's will.

After that, whenever a child was born, in order to make the child a warrior, a ritual called Magati was held to pass on the exclusive magic of the spirit hook.

The Magati ritual uses a special solution made from magic crystals to tattoo a magic hook on the child's left wrist.

This magic circle disappears deep into the skin after it is tattooed, but it can be used to show a variety of effects.

The Spirit Hook is roughly divided into three stages, namely the stage of accumulating mana, summoning weapons, and arming mana.

The first stage of accumulating mana is the stage of absorbing the surrounding mana into the body little by little through the magic array and accumulating it.

The children of the entire clan who have undergone Magati rituals since birth have been living in the jungle with a high density of mana and accumulating their magical powers, and by the age of ten, they have almost all of their magical powers.

The second stage of summoning an armament is a stage in which you can summon a hook-like weapon with a chain on the wrist of your left hand tattooed with a magic circle according to your own will, using the magic power activated by adjusting your breath.

The Moyu Spirit Hook clan calls this set of equipment the Spirit Hook, which means the claw of the warrior, and when you can use the Spirit Hook freely, you can be recognized as a warrior within the clan.

It is precisely because of the existence of the spirit hook that the whole clan can quickly shuttle between the trees in the jungle with complex terrain, and when hunting, they can quickly close the distance with the prey, so as to take it down with one blow, and only then can they survive in the cruel jungle.

The final third stage, the Magical Armament Stage, is known as the Dream Stage, where you can infuse the weapons and hooks you use with magic and exert magical powers.

Warriors who reach the magical arming stage are called Shuja, and it is said that they can draw magic circles in the air, fix their spirit hooks to shuttle, and use their magic to defeat prey and even enemies.

But this realm has only been practiced by the earliest group of warriors in the whole clan, and it is only passed on by word of mouth, and everyone thinks it is just a legend.

"How? Latiya, do you want to become a legendary warrior Shuja too? "

"Well, I want to be a knight."

Seeing that every time she mentioned the legendary warrior Shu Jia in the clan, her sister, whose eyes lit up, actually expressed her desire to become a knight without hesitation, Lu Ya was a little overwhelmed for a while, but she thought that her sister might just be too young, so she continued to introduce.

"Latia, then I'll teach you how to use the spirit hook now, you have to watch it."

"Hmm."

"If you want to trigger the Spirit Hook first, you must keep the Hunting Breath."

"Hunt's Breath?"

"That's right, Hunt's Breath is to slow down the rate of your breathing, and it looks like you're holding your breath, so you can feel the magic in your body being activated."

Lu Ya explained, gesturing to breathe and began to slow down her breathing rate.

When his breathing gradually slowed down, Lu Yazhen seemed to stop breathing, his chest did not rise and fall, and a blue magic array instantly appeared in his left hand, and a hook with an iron chain, the spirit hook, appeared.

Luya looked at the spirit hook that appeared, and raised her spear to shoot at the target that Latia had erected to imitate the knight.

The scene where the hook flew straight at the target looked similar to the knight's spear sprinting out.

Seeing movements very similar to those of knights, Latia, who had never been very interested in training, suddenly had a light in her eyes and looked at her sister.

"Oh......"

Seeing the light in the eyes of her sister, who had been bored before, Lu Ya shrugged her shoulders with relief and said to Latia.

"How? Isn't it more handsome than a knight? "

"Hmm...... No, it's kind of like. "

"Uh, okay."

"But sister, I'll try."

Lu Ya thought that her beautiful blow would at least make her sister talk less about knights, but she didn't expect that her sister's dream still hadn't changed.

But perhaps because his blow looked a little similar to that of the knight, Latia was a little interested and willing to follow along.

As her sister taught, Latiya began to try to practice the Hunting Breath, and she felt the magic in her body activate, and her left wrist was hot.

Lu Ya looked at her serious and focused sister with a look of relief, and was surprised when she saw the magic array activated by her sister's left wrist.

Unexpectedly, not long after Latiya started practicing Hunting Breath, she was able to activate the magic array in her left hand and trigger the spirit hook.

Rao is a very good warrior, and it will take more than ten days to activate the magic array with the Hunting Breath, but Kelatiya actually succeeded at once, and also triggered the spirit hook.

Seeing this, Lu Ya looked relieved, and was about to introduce the next content to her sister, but saw Latiya fly towards the target with the triggered spirit hook.

"Latia! Wait a minute! "

After flying out, he should have hit the target with a crisp click, but Kolatia fell to the ground with a thud and rolled on the ground.

Luya was taken aback and ran over to check on Latia's condition, fortunately her sister seemed to be fine, but the blow did not meet her expectations, Latia seemed shocked and said sadly.

"Sister, I probably don't have much talent."

Seeing that her sister hadn't understood her talent yet, and she was still complaining about her bitterness, Lu Ya seemed to think it was cute, and said with a laugh.

"No, Latia, you're doing very well! No one has ever been able to do this in the first place! With time and hard work, you can still train into a legendary warrior Shu Jia! "

"Shuja? No, I'm going to be a knight. "

"Haha, okay, my sister will become a legendary knight."

"Really?"

Seeing that her sister still didn't forget to talk about the knight in the face of such a situation, Lu Ya seemed to think that it was very cute, and couldn't help but agree.

Seeing her sister's praise, Latia quickly became stinky and beautiful, she patted the ashes on her body, stood up and stood there as if nothing had happened.

Lu Ya saw that her sister became stupid and stupid at the mention of knights, so she said with a smile.

"Latia, you're really good, but you'll have to insist on listening to your sister, you know?"

"Hmm."

"Although it seems that this spirit hook is easy to control, it is actually not an easy task."

"Mission?"

"That's right, it's the need to keep the hunt alive all the time."

"Do you want to keep breathing this way all the time?"

"The Spirit Hook is triggered by the magic activated by the Hunt's Breath, and once the Hunt's Breath is broken, the activated mana will also weaken, and the Spirit Hook will dissipate."

The thought of being able to fly as beautiful as a knight if she did as her sister said, Latia was full of anticipation, and after hearing that the Hunting Breath would disappear if the Spirit Hook was interrupted, she continued to listen to her sister's words.

"Latiya, no matter what kind of situation you face, you must keep your original intention unwavering, this is the first step to becoming a warrior, you have to remember it."

"Well, keep your original intention."

"That's right, your purpose during this time is to keep the spirit hook and not break it."

"Got it, sister."

In fact, the way the Hunt's Breath breathes is very difficult, and it is not easy to maintain even in normal times.

It's so hard to maintain a normal mind and maintain this way of breathing in the face of the rapid changes around you, which is equivalent to maintaining the same heart rate in any situation.

Kratiya seemed to believe her sister's claim that she could become a legendary knight, and focused on training with great anticipation.

After several years of training as a warrior, Latia's face has faded from childishness, and she has grown into a heroic warrior.

I don't know if it's because of her dream of becoming a knight, or because of her talent, Latiya has shown her strength to advance by leaps and bounds faster than anyone else.

Most of the displays show that the Breath Method is changed in order to trigger the Spirit Hook, but Kelatia is very familiar with the method of breathing, and is able to keep using only the Hunting Breath.

Of course, she also needs time to catch her breath after using the Spirit Hook continuously or launching powerful attacks, but she can use the Spirit Hook faster and more calmly than anyone else.

After being able to use the Hook freely, Latia received a warrior suit with a painting of a panther and was recognized as a warrior of her clan.

Becoming a warrior means that she has been recognized as an adult, which means that the child is independent.

While being independent doesn't mean traveling far, Koratia is different from other children in that she has always wanted to see the outside world.

Determined to venture out into the outside world, Latia put on her warrior's suit, packed her simple bag and her usual wooden spear, and prepared for the road.

The whole family gathered in the village square to see them off, and everyone was silent, looking worriedly at Latiya, who was about to go out, and Lu Ya spoke in silence.

"Latia, take care of yourself! Remember to eat on time! You can't lose your temper just because you can't eat snake meat! "

"Yes, sister."

"And ...... You're going to turn into a knight and come back, right? "

"Well, I'll be back."

Seeing that her sister, who had been taking care of her, was so worried, Latiya was heartbroken, but she did not apologize, but promised that she would definitely return.

Ratiya said goodbye to her family and set off for the grassland where she had been as a child.

Latia entered the grassland, and a moment later came to the place where the accident had occurred.

There were no traces of the past, but she seemed to be able to see the demons who had fallen under the attack of the dazzling knights.

Thinking back to the fear of the past, Latiya's body still trembled slightly, but her eyes still followed the knight's steps, and her heart was slowly filled with excitement.

The excitement made her heart pound and get louder and louder, and she really felt that she had come to the outside world to realize her dream.

Looking at the village in the distance, Latiya remembered the miserable scene and walked towards the village worriedly.

When Latiya arrived at the village, she saw a peaceful scene as far as the eye could see, which calmed her worries.

Although there are still some traces of the village that were burned by demons, fortunately it has been rebuilt well.

And it looks like the wooden fence here has been built stronger than before, and it is now holding the village safe.

The villagers living here don't know whether they have long forgotten the pain of the past, or they don't want to show their pain, and they all look cheerful and sunny, full of happiness.

Letting go of the big stone in her heart, Latia sold the animal skins she had brought with her in order to raise money, and then went to the grocery store to inquire about the knight.

After all, this is only a small village, and the grocery store is only responsible for bartering the villagers, and there are also some specialties that are traded with foreign merchants.

A young girl dusted off the goods placed on the counter and greeted Lathia with a smile.

"Welcome to Mary's Grocery Store."

The girl was fair-skinned, with freckles on her face, and her red hair was tied into a double ponytail, and she looked about the same age as Latia.

"Excuse me."

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Ahh Could it be that we've seen it before? "

The girl seemed to recognize Latia, and asked after carefully observing Latia's face.

Latia also realized that the girl was the girl she had saved by throwing stones, and replied with joy.

"Well, that's right."

"Right! I really wanted to thank you at the beginning, it turned out that you were fine, and I haven't seen you since then, so I'm really anxious. "

The girl seemed to be very worried about Latia's safety, and with a look of pity, she thanked Latia.

The girl introduced herself as Mary, and then told some stories about the village.

Fortunately, with the help of the Border Knights, the village survived, but all the houses and food were burned down, and everyone was desperate.

However, for the sake of the hungry and cold children, the villagers never gave up and began to rebuild the village.

Mary proudly recounts the rebuilding of burned homes, the collection of food scattered everywhere for distribution, and the overcoming of despair and the rebuilding of the village it is today.

Seeing that Latia was calmly listening to what she was saying, Mary realized that maybe she had talked too much, so she blushed a little and asked about Latia.

"Ahh Am I talking to myself? So what are you doing at Mary's grocery store? "

"Well, I want to get some money to go on a road trip, I wonder if I can sell some fur from you?"

"Absolutely! Let me see? Not...... I'm afraid I won't be able to buy all these furs with the funds in my store. "

Seeing that the furs brought by Latia were all rare goods that could only be found in the jungle, Mary panicked for a moment.

"Ahh Do you collect anything other than money? "

"Huh? What is it? "

Seeing that Latia was curious, Mary pointed to the long object wrapped in a cloth in the grocery store.

"This thing looks a little similar to the weapon you carried, how about it, are you interested?"

Seeing that the spear was made of metal stronger than the wooden spear in his hand, Lathia was satisfied.

"Well, okay, I like it."

"Great! Thank you, I always feel that no one will want to buy this thing, and if you don't want to accept it before, it will be purely helpless. "

Seeing that Latia readily agreed, Mary seemed to let go of the big stone in her heart and was very happy.

The spear looked weather-beaten, but fortunately it was well kept, and it was supposed to have been used by a knight and sold to Mary's general store.

But after all, this is a poor and remote place, so naturally no one will come to buy it, so it has been idle in the grocery store for a long time.

In exchange for some coiling and high-quality weapons, Latia finally asked the most important question.

"Well, there'......"

"Is there anything else you want?"

"To be a knight...... What to do? "

"Knights? Well...... What do you have to do to become a knight? "

Mary looked embarrassed in the face of Latia's cold question, and she thought for a long time before she seemed to remember something, clapped her hands and said.

"Ahh I have a knight I know well, and though I don't know if he can answer your question, I might as well go and ask him. "

Mary seemed to be often absent from the store, so she easily hung a sign in front of the store saying "No one in the grocery store", and pulled Latia to the outside of the village.

When they reached the entrance of the village, they saw a knight who seemed to be sitting on a boulder with his legs and feet looking at the village.

The knight seemed to be living a wandering life, with the horse parked nearby, carrying a simple bag on his back.

The knight's armor was already a little worn, his face had a shaggy beard, his hair was not well groomed, and he had a detached expression.

"Uncle!"

The knight Mary knew seemed to be the wandering knight, and when she saw Mary calling her uncle from afar, she walked towards him.

The wandering knight was unmoved when he saw Mary shouting towards him, but he was shocked when he saw the spear carried by Lathia beside Mary.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

There was silence between the two of them, but Mary on the side was the first to stand up and introduce each other.

"This is Uncle Wandering Knight, don't worry, don't look at him like this, but he is a real knight. Yes! The weapon you had in your hand was your uncle's. "

Hearing Mary introduce herself, the wandering knight continued to look at the calm village with a nonchalant expression on his face.

Mary seemed to have become accustomed to his reaction, and casually introduced Latia to the knight.

"And then this is Latiya, I mentioned to you before, my savior, I didn't expect that after so many years, the two of us could recognize each other at a glance."

After Mary's introduction, seeing that the wandering knight didn't seem interested, she said almost with a gesture in her eyes.

"Uncle, Latia said she wanted to be a knight, could you teach her?"

The wandering knight seemed uninterested in Mary's words, and said nonchalantly.

"Knights? You go elsewhere and ask around. "

Faced with the knight's indifferent attitude, Mary squeezed out a slight smile and then said to the knight.

"Ha, ha, uncle?"

"It's okay, Mary, I don't want to bother anyone."

Seeing the attitude of the wandering knight, Latia realized that it might be difficult to get the news, so she spoke out to dissuade Mary.

The disappointed two gave up and continued to ask, and when they were about to go back, the wandering knight touched his leg and said softly.

"Hey, you've figured it out, if you don't want to be a cripple like me."

Hearing the wandering knight's warning, Latia turned to look at his injured leg.

The wandering knight seems to have been seriously injured, and his leg seems to be unable to bend at all, and it is difficult to even go about his daily life.

But even when she saw such an injury, she was still not timid, and said firmly.

"But thanks to this, someone has picked up a life, and I still want to be such a knight."

Unexpecting such an answer to his warning, the wandering knight looked at Latiya, as if he had finally become a little interested, and continued.

"You...... Do you know how to make that spear? "

"Yes."

Hearing her answer, the wandering knight took his old horse and handed the reins over.

"Then use this spear to pierce the leaves of that branch, and if you succeed, I will help you become a knight, but if you fail, put this spear down."

The Wandering Knight's offer was very firm, as if Latia had not passed the test, and he would have to daydream of being a knight again.

But his proposal was ridiculous to anyone, Mary said angrily.

"Uncle! This is too much! Let's go, Ratia, and I'll help you find someone else. "

Latia returned the reins to the wandering knight's hand, as if to return the Absolute Side's offer, but her answer was unexpected.

"I don't know how to ride this animal yet."

"Ha, you girl wants to be a knight, and she can't ride a horse at her age, so I advise you to dismiss this idea as soon as possible."

Hearing Latia say that she couldn't ride a horse, the wandering knight counted down in front of him.

Instead of giving up, Kolatia continued to ask rhetorically.

"Is it okay not to ride an animal called a horse?"

"What? You say you don't ride a horse? "

"Yes."

As soon as the voice fell, Latia assumed a hunting pose, triggered the spirit hook, and flew to the tree designated by the wandering knight.

Latia flew out like an arrow from a string, threw her spear through the leaves, and when she landed safely, she picked it up again and turned and walked back to the wandering knight.

Mary, who saw this, was stunned and asked Latia, who came over.

"That's amazing! Latia! Did you just use that magic? "

"It's called a spirit hook...... Nothing remarkable. "

Latia replied, scratching her nose as if embarrassed, and Mary looked at the wandering knight as if she had succeeded.

"How? Latiya succeeded, now you're willing to help her become a knight, right? "

Seeing the magic used by Latia, the wandering knight seemed to be shocked as well, and was never able to speak easily.

"Since we've agreed, I'll help you, but why do you want to be a knight?"

Faced with the most fundamental problem of the wandering knight, Mary also looked directly at Latia, as if she wanted to see her through.

In response to the Wandering Knight's question, Latia recalled the knight she had been chasing, and spoke eloquently.

"It's always been my dream to be a handsome knight."

"Huh? What did you say? Handsome? "

"Well, handsome knight."

"What?"

In Mary's eyes, Latia was so calm, self-controlled, and domineering from the first glance, and she said such childish words at this moment, which couldn't help but make Mary laugh in shock.

Latia seemed embarrassed by Mary's laughter, and looked away with a red face.

"Hahaha...... I'm sorry, Latia, I didn't want to laugh so loudly, but your answer was so surprising. I thought you would answer what to say in order to better achieve justice. "

Latia's answer also made the wandering knight laugh, and he stood up, limped on his horse, and said.

"I'll teach you how to be a knight, and you'll be here at sunrise tomorrow."

The wandering knight said this, and rode his old horse towards the village.

Mary told Latia that this was a great thing, and that she was more excited than Latia, who was just looking at the back of the wandering knight with a heavy face.

The next day, an unexpected person came to the agreed place.

"Mary, why are you here?"

"I had a long conversation with Latia at home yesterday, and I found that she was too ignorant of human feelings, so I wanted to help this life-saver who helped me. Besides, if it's just you, uncle, and Latiya, can you two talk? ”

"Mary, I'm fine."

"Don't worry, Latia. I have invested in your potential, I still have confidence in my own vision of people, and when you become a knight, don't forget my credit! ”

Mary's answer left the wandering knight a little speechless, and he shook his head and said.

"What about the store?"

"Don't worry, uncle. Where did such a small village come from? Even if I put up a sign that the grocery store is empty, those uncles and aunts will take good care of me, and it's fine. "

The wandering knight and Latia seemed to have no choice but to agree after looking at each other.
