Chapter 11: Ruiz's Secret
I locked the door, how did this guy break in......
Josh turned his head, and he was greeted by a lean, athletic teenager with a bare chest, dark complexion, and a lean and muscular body.
He looked like he was in his teens, with the sides of his head shaved, his long hair in the middle braided into a whip, golden hoop earrings hanging from his earlobes, and a gray robe that was not overly groomed and did not fit in with the style of Fukukojima.
If you put it on the earth, it will be a proper non-mainstream street runner dress.
The boy took a few breaths, as if in a hurry, but quickly regained his composure, and with an arrogant expression on his face, he did not care whether his actions were rude or not.
[Another gifted rune mage!] Runicia shouted in Josh's head.
Josh ignored her and raised an eyebrow, "Do I know you?" ”
"Huh?"
The boy's expression was surprised, his eyebrows gradually tightened, and he rubbed his chin from his feet to his head, and looked at Josh carefully, and finally his eyes stayed on his right hand.
"What's wrong with your hand?"
"You haven't answered my question yet."
The boy's brows furrowed even tighter, "Are you pretending or ...... You really don't know me anymore? ”
Through Josh's expression, years of experience telling the boy that he didn't seem to be in disguise.
Josh pursed the corners of his mouth angrily, "Since you know that I live here, don't you know what happened to me?" ”
"I just came back with Tyrus, and I asked the servant where you are......"
The boy's voice became quieter the more he spoke, and after a moment of pause, he realized what the servant had tried to stop him.
"Uh, what's your situation?"
"I have amnesia." Josh said, "Besides, aren't you going to introduce yourself before you ask me about it?" ”
In fact, when Lunicia said that the young man was a gifted rune mage, Josh guessed that he was Ryze.
When the guy mentions that he was returning to the island with Tyrus, Josh confirms his identity.
It's just that the image of Ruiz when he was a teenager is much different from the wandering mage who ran around searching for world runes and saving the world later.
However, now he is somewhat similar to Josh's impression of youth.
"My name is Ruiz, Terus's apprentice, your junior brother." Ruiz introduced himself quickly and simply with a nonchalant attitude, "So...... What the hell is your situation? ”
"As I said, I have amnesia." Josh shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the Dance of Death pendant on his chest, "It's all the cause. ”
[Hey, don't throw me your amnesia!] Who knows what the hell is going on with you......" Lunicia muttered.
Ruiz wondered, "...... this?" ”
"Darkspawn weapons, have you heard of them?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Josh could catch a glimpse of Ryze's face changing suddenly, apparently he knew about the legend of the Darkspawn.
"You, you've been taken over by the Darkspawn?!"
He suddenly became vigilant, and the five fingers of his hands curled up at his side, and he made a gesture that Josh was very familiar with, but not very standard.
"Hehe, calm down Ryze, I'm really going to be taken over by the Darkspawn, do you think Archbishop Marcusa will build me such a mansion without adding guards?"
When Ruiz heard this, he felt that this was the truth, and his tense nerves were much calmer, but the vigilance in his eyes did not subside.
"The Darkspawn are Shurima's fallen Ascendants, and even if they are sealed into their weapons, they can still corrupt everyone who comes into their hands with blood magic."
Rhyze looked at Josh's right arm, "Your arm is corrupted by blood magic...... But I'm curious, how did you resist the power of the Darkspawn? Have you found the Mystical Archive? ”
After two seconds, he shook his head again and denied his thoughts, "No, no, no, since you have lost your memory, you shouldn't remember this...... But how did you learn rune magic? I just saw it all outside! ”
Hearing Ruiz mention the Mystical Archive again, and also mention the agreement with "himself", Josh's eyes flashed with essence.
[Aha- it seems that it's not just the Shining Tower, but even you, Josh, you have a secret little secret...... Hahahaha, the people of Fuguang Island, intrigues, a plate of loose sand! 】
Runicia laughed, her words full of sarcasm.
"The Mystical Archive...... Josh endured the rumbling in his head, pondered for a moment and continued, "Can you tell me what our agreement is?" ”
Ruiz obviously didn't want to have much contact with the amnesiac Josh anymore, even if he was his own senior brother, "What's the use now?" Tyrus should have gotten the news and I'm going to have to get back......"
As he spoke, Ruiz turned around to leave, but was stopped by Josh: "Wait, I didn't find the Mystical Archive, but I should have found the relevant clues before I lost my memory." ”
"Oh?" Ruiz turned his head sharply, his blue eyes glinting with excitement, "What the hell?" Let me see! ”
"Don't worry."
Josh walked over to Ryze, the apprentice's unmastered arcane magic visibly tense until Josh passed by himself without any movement, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning his head to look at Josh's back, Ruiz hesitated for a moment and chose to follow.
The two walked into the bedroom, Josh rummaged through the table for something, and Ruiz looked around the room and muttered, "In Helia, this is obviously my room...... Looks like you're really amnesiac. ”
"I can't even recognize you, can you still be fake?"
Josh placed a not-so-thick notebook in the hand that Ryz subconsciously reached out to catch.
"Look at it, the notes I took before should have what you want."
After a pause, he added, "I'm not corrupted by the Darkspawn, probably because of this." ”
[Hahaha...... Josh, in addition to being a rune mage, I've also found that you have more and more potential to become a drama actor, and you are quite presentable. 】
The notes are the notes taken by Lunicia when he instructed Josh in the runic form.
The above is very detailed about the runes, and there are remedies for various risks.
Even if you study alone, there is not much chance of accidents.
Now, in order to unravel Ryze's secret, this notebook, which is not very useful to Josh, happens to come in handy.
Perhaps, Josh can also use this to win over Ruiz, who seems to be not very firm, and let him do him a little favor in the future.
It is always a good thing for those who have attained the Tao to have more help and one more friend.
Ruiz raised an eyebrow, turned the first page with a little doubt, and instantly widened his eyes with a look of surprise.
He quickly flipped a few more pages back, and the surprise on his face gradually turned into surprise and excitement, "Yes, that's right! That's it, record the content of the rune usage! ”
Before Reze could savor it, the note in his hand was withdrawn by Josh.
Ruiz lifted his eyes as if he was annoyed that his beloved thing had been taken away, but he quickly pushed back and turned into a flattering smile.
"Hey...... Brother, can you lend me the notes for a while? Tyrus wouldn't teach us, but we made an appointment to explore rune magic together......"
At this time, you remembered to call me senior brother?
The turn of the Rze's philistine was a bit unexpected for Josh.
With this guy's current character, if he didn't know the script, it would be really hard to think that he would save the world in the future.
"It's okay to give it to you, but ......"
Hey, even if you have amnesia, your personality is exactly the same as before!
Ruiz secretly slandered himself, but grinned on his face: "I owe you a personal favor!" In the future, where I can be useful, I will go to the soup and fire! ”
Josh put the note back in his hand, and Ruiz carefully held it in his arms like a treasure, "I have to leave, see you next time." ”
Without waiting for Josh to respond, Ryze moved quickly and rushed out of the bedroom in the blink of an eye.
It wasn't even two seconds before Ruiz's cry of pain rang out in the antechamber: "Oops! ”
Josh stepped out of the bedroom to check on the situation.
I saw another middle-aged man with dreadlocks, a burly figure, and wearing a gray robe with the same style as Ruiz, who happened to bump into him.
It was from Margusa that he heard the news and rushed to Tyrus without stopping.
