In the northwest corner of the slum is a nondescript two-story log cabin called the Firefly House. This is the residence of Sister Elena. There were a dozen or so children living in the small house, the eldest of them fifteen or sixteen years old, and the youngest of seven or eight years old, all homeless orphans, adopted by Yelena, and Robert was the eldest of the group of orphans.

It was eight o'clock in the evening, and in the hall of the Firefly House, in the dim candlelight, Robert and a dozen children, as well as Sister Elena, were eating around a large round table filled with bread, steaks, roast meats, roast chicken, fruit, and baropoe...... , every child is gobbling up, with an excited smile on their faces.

Robert sat among the children, drinking with a gourd, and recounting his experience in the past six months.

Robert hadn't read much, but he had been among adventurers for many years, and his language was very down-to-earth. After talking for half an hour, everyone laughed, sometimes frightened, and sometimes leisurely...... , and from time to time I forget to eat. Sister Elena forked the pieces of meat into the children's bowls, her eyes radiating with love.

After speaking, Robert took out a money bag from his bosom, handed it to Elena, and said, "Mother nun, here are a hundred gold coins, enough for us to eat for a year!"

A smile appeared on Elena's wrinkled face, but she didn't take the purse, and said, "Praise the god of light, Robert, you are the best gift God has given me! You always surprise me! The gold coins you gave me a few times have not been used up yet, and we will not use them for the time being." The voice was full of approval.

Robert said, "Aren't we family? With that, he put the purse into Yelena's hand.

"Of all my children, you are the biggest and the smartest. I know you've had a dream since you were a kid, and now I think it's time to help you make it happen!"

Robert frowned, with a puzzled look in his eyes, and said in his heart: "I have dreamed since I was a child? ”

Yelena stared into his eyes and continued, "Since I was a child, every time you saw a student from Alpha Academy, your eyes were full of envy, and at that time we were poor and delayed your talent. It's different now, these gold coins are enough for your tuition. These days, the academy is recruiting students, you can go and sign up tomorrow!" he said, and put the money bag back into Robert's hand.

Robert never expected that she would let herself go to Alpha Academy, and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and said in his heart: "I, Sun, just now someone asked me to study for free, I refused, and fought for it, now let me take the money to study, am I sick!" Thinking of this, he sighed, and there were three points of emotion, three points of worry, and three points of regret in his voice.

Robert took a sip of wine, and after a while, he said, "I went to Alpha Academy, what should you do?" Mother nun, you are old, your health is not good, and your younger brothers and sisters are still young......

Elena interrupted him and smiled, "God has given us hands to do things. I'm not in good health, but I can help people pray, Lucy can milk cows, Jenny knits sweaters, and even our youngest Jerry sells flowers. Besides, won't there be Nicol and Doug after you're gone? ”

Nicol and Doug are also members of the Firefly House, the same age as Robert, the three of them grew up together and were once best friends, but in the past two years, there was a little misunderstanding and a gap.

After coming back for so long, Robert hadn't seen Nicol and Doug, and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, where did they go?"

Elena said: "They took a caravan mission, and they have been out for more than two months now, if it goes well, I believe they will be back in a few days." After a pause, he ate a piece of chicken, and then said: "The three of you were raised by me, and you have no talent or strength, and I know your temper best, the two of them have always been on the wrong path with you, and you have been letting them." Hey~~!I really hope you three can be like when you were a child. ”

Robert shook his head like a rattle and said, "The two of them are much more talented than me, and I have never been an opponent, so let's let the two of them go! As for me, I also have a dream now - that is, to earn gold coins." I think it's better to let Nicol and Doug go to the academy!" As he spoke, he gently tossed the money bag, and the gold coins in the money bag collided with each other, making a rattling sound, Robert closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said: "Ah~~, this is the most beautiful music in the world!"

Elena said gently, "I originally planned to let all three of you enter the Alpha Academy. You know, once you graduate from there, you'll become the darling of Silvermoon City, and even be an elite on the whole road. Besides, you can come home and visit us from time to time when you go, and I promise we won't worry you. There was a sense of anticipation in his voice.

Robert smiled bitterly: "What worries me the most is you, my nun's mother, you always forget yourself when you go to help others whenever you have money. Let's wait for Nicol and Doug to come back, and then we will discuss whether or not to go to Alpha Academy!" he said, shoving the money bag into Yelena's hand.

Elena smiled and said: "Kindness is the greatest wealth that God has given us! Money is gone, we can earn it again, but a kind heart can't be bought by no amount of gold coins......"

When Robert heard this, he suddenly felt a headache, and hurriedly changed the topic: "By the way, I bought a copy of the "Dragon Swinging Tail" martial art in the afternoon, and after everyone finishes learning, you can still sell a few gold coins!" As he spoke, he took out a sheepskin scroll from his bosom and handed it to Yelena.

Elena unfolded the scroll, looked at it slightly, and said, "This is the thief's martial art, and after eating, the thieves all come to learn it." ”

The moonlight poured like water in the courtyard behind the cabin. Robert stood opposite a dummy, behind him stood Yelena and a group of children, suddenly, Robert's body turned half a circle, his back to the dummy, and he felt that his whole body strength was quickly condensed to his right leg, and after a while, with a snort, one leg kicked back, and the official trick of the dragon swung its tail, only to hear a bang, a dummy flew straight backwards, hit the wall, and then exploded, scattered into a place of straw.

Robert looked at the straw all over the ground, surprised and delighted, he never expected the power of this leg to be so amazing, and said in his heart: "I, Sun, no wonder this move is the skill of the thumb, the power is comparable to the third-level martial arts." It's just a problem, every time you get out of your legs, you have to gather for a while, and when the gathering is complete, the daylily is cold. How can you get your opponent to stand still?"

While he was thinking to himself, all the children came running over and chattered around Robert.

"Brother Rabbit, it's amazing!"

"Brother Rabbit, can I learn?"

"Teach me, okay?"

......。

When Robert heard this, he suddenly felt fluttering, and said, "Okay! I'll teach you." This trick needs to be so powerful......"

It wasn't until midnight that Robert lay down in bed. In the past six months, I have hardly slept a good night, and as soon as my head touches the pillow, I fall into a deep sleep.
