Chapter Eight: The Secret of the Scarfaced Girl

"The Marquis Palace calls me ugly, I don't have a name..." The scar-faced girl calmly answered David Mo's inquiry.

"Then do you have any other family members? Maybe I can send you to find them."

"My mother died when I was very young. As for my father... he was burned alive in the Holy Temple Square as a heretic. I have no relatives in this world."

When she mentioned her parents, the girl with the scarred face finally had some expression on her face. But under the dim light, the scars on her face also trembled, which was extremely scary.

"Oh..." David Mo sighed. He didn't expect that there were people worse off than him in this world. Father Mo told him that his mother's name was Yali, and she died in childbirth to give birth to him. This made him think about

The girl with the scarred face felt the same thing, and he knew what it felt like to lose a loved one.

"If you want to break off the engagement, I can accompany you to the Holy Court to break the original vow."

To dissolve the engagement, one must go to the Holy Court and cancel the vows made by the God of Light by both parties involved. But this requires a sacrificial ceremony, which requires a large amount of money.

David Mo shook his head helplessly and said calmly: "The Holy Court's ceremony requires two thousand gold coins. The only valuable item in our family is this carriage. Even if we sell the carriage and house, we can't get so much."

money."

"Is that so..." The scar-faced girl was silent. The clothes on the Mo family's father and son could actually tell that this family was not wealthy.

"Actually, it doesn't matter. Marriage is a luxury for me. Let's postpone it indefinitely for the time being. Maybe one day, I will save enough gold coins."

David Mo forced a smile on his face, the carriage bumped slightly, and neither of them spoke.

"David, we're almost at school, I won't send you in."

After all, Father Mo did not send David Mo back home. He knew that Xingchen Academy never had a holiday. Although he was still feeling a little low at this time, since the fact had happened, he could only look forward.

It's a pity that my son's fighting spirit has not improved...

David Mo understood what his father meant. Since he was a useless martial artist, he should at least abide by the rules of the academy honestly, so that others would not be caught and expelled.

Thinking of this, David Mo jumped off the carriage and decided to let his father know that he had broken through the shackles!

"Dad, what do you think this is?"

After speaking, David Mo released his fighting spirit mask, and a layer of dark yellow light appeared on his body. The strong aura seemed to remind people that this was a bronze-level warrior!

Father Mo looked at the Dou Qi mask on his son with a look of disbelief. Although his son had been working extremely hard since he was ten years old in school, there seemed to be some kind of restriction on his body. No matter how hard he tried, his Dou Qi level could not be improved!

Even the clergy of the Holy Tribunal once said that his son would not be able to break through even the second level of apprenticeship in this life. This made Father Mo helplessly accept the fact after the initial disappointment.

But the facts before him told him that his son actually broke through. Not only did he break through, but he also reached a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach - Bronze Level One! This is a level that can only be achieved by a company commander of the Central Royal Legion!

"Bronze Level 1?! Great God of Light! You are finally willing to open your eyes and see the descendants of our Mo family!"

The excitement on Father Mo's face made him most excited because this meant that the restriction on his son had finally been broken!

The scarred-faced girl on the carriage was also shocked. This legendary good-for-nothing uncle actually had a bronze-level cultivation level?! It’s not impossible that a 17-year-old could reach the bronze-level level, but how many rare treasures would it take to achieve it?

A genius boy? Who doesn’t come from a wealthy family?

Thinking of this, her eyes flickered, and suddenly she felt that a door was right in front of her, maybe...

"Dad, your son is a real genius. You don't have to worry about the affairs of the academy. I will take care of it myself."

David Mo finally felt a little more relaxed when he saw his father's excited expression. His father had suffered too much for himself.

He pointed to the carriage again and whispered: "Dad, then take her home. Don't dislike her appearance. She is a very pitiful person."

Father Mo nodded helplessly, and was about to say goodbye to David Mo when he heard a sudden voice.

"Wait a minute!" The scar-faced girl finally couldn't bear it anymore, opened the curtain, jumped out of the carriage and shouted.

"What's wrong?" David Mo and Father Mo looked at the scar-faced girl curiously at the same time.

"I want to go to school with Master Mo. He probably won't have much time to do housework when he goes to school alone. I can help him!"

There are people from Star Academy who bring their servants with them to study with them, but David Mo feels that since the scar-faced girl can take care of others, and he is a little worried about his father being alone at home, it would be better to let the scar-faced girl go home to take care of his father.

He was about to speak, but his father spoke first and said, "Our family doesn't have money to pay you wages."

"I don't want any wages, just take care of my food."

"Now... let me tell you, help David clean up the housework, just do it honestly, and you must not have any inappropriate thoughts."

When David Mo heard what his father said, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What was his father thinking? This girl with a scar face is very innocent!

"Does that mean you agree to let me accompany Mr. Mo?"

Father Mo said "hmm" and agreed. He turned around and said quietly to David Mo: "Son, you just need someone to serve you. Although this little girl is a bit ugly, she is still smart. Just take her with you.

Bar."

David Mo understood that his father cared about him, and he felt moved in his heart. Moreover, the girl with the scar face was ugly, so continuing to refuse might hurt her self-esteem. After a slight hesitation, David Mo nodded in agreement.

"Okay, dad, I'll take her away, you take care of yourself!"

Father Mo waved his hands vigorously and said goodbye to his son. He sighed in his heart, his son has grown up now, and it is time for him to find his wife...

David Mo took the scar-faced girl back to the dormitory. The place where he lived was very small, with only one room. The whole house was divided into two by a big table. David Mo's bed was on the left side of the table, so he had to be on the right.

Another bed was set up for her to sleep on.

"You really don't have a name? I mean, your father gave you a name. I can't keep calling you 'eh', right?"

David Mo had a headache. How could someone not have a name?

"My father gave me the name...call me Anna."

David Mo felt a little cold. Although he was fine, Anna was wearing very thin clothes and might not be able to withstand it. He closed the window and took out a brazier. With a thought, a fireball instantly appeared in his hand and ignited the wood in the brazier.

.

Seeing this scene, Anna opened her mouth in surprise. Could this guy be a knight with magic and martial arts skills?

"You know magic?"

David Mo saw the surprised look on her face and smiled lightly, "I know a little bit, but my mage level is only at the apprentice level, which is rubbish."

"But this is also very powerful! In the history of the mainland, only Mozi can cultivate both magic and martial arts! Apart from him, no one has ever had the physique of a warrior and such a powerful elemental perception at the same time!"

Sparks flashed in Anna's eyes, as if she had discovered a new continent. She thought to herself: Coming with him is indeed a good bet! Her father's lifelong efforts have finally been put to use!

David Mo was a little scared when he was stared at by her, and he thought to himself: Is this ugly guy really interested in the young master? What should he do? Would he rather die than obey?

"Um...can you please stop looking at me like that...I'm shy..."

"Uh... I'm sorry... I'm just a little surprised at your talent."

Anna then realized that she had been staring at him just now, and immediately became a little embarrassed.

"Actually, there is no need to be surprised. I have no way of starting with the Master's cultivation methods now. Meditation is of no use to me."

David Mo sighed. He knew his own things. Just like his fighting spirit cultivation, he could not break through the mysteries of nature through meditation. He could only upgrade in the God's Continent.

But everyone in God's Continent has a single profession! In other words, the so-called system has defaulted to the role of a warrior, and you can only upgrade to a warrior!

So what's the use of being able to use magic? A wizard at the level of apprentice? Say it without making people laugh. The level of a knight is calculated based on the lowest level of cultivation. Even if he becomes a knight now, he is just a knight.

Just an apprentice-level knight!

When David Mo thought of this, his interest waned: That fish monster soul is really worthless, it would be a pity to throw it away if it is tasteless!

Seeing the somewhat gloomy expression on David Mo's face, Anna said softly: "Actually, it's not impossible..."

When David Mo heard her words, he was a little surprised: Could this "ugly monster" have a solution? But this idea was immediately put out of his mind, she is just a little maid...

"Have you ever heard of Jones Bol?"

"I've heard of it, a very great mage. Legend has it that he has become a holy-level grand mage. It's a pity that he disappeared. Isn't he the glory of the Roman Empire?"

There are three powerful empires on the God's Continent, namely the French Empire, the Roman Empire, and the Holy Empire. The three countries are currently in a state of truce, so the continent is still peaceful.

The three countries have a common belief, the God of Light! The Holy Court is the seat of the Pope of the Light God, and it is a place revered by all countries. The current Pope is Gunilla XII. It is said that he has reached the temple level of light.

The level of a mage!

"He didn't disappear, because he discovered a shocking secret. After informing the Holy Court, he was regarded as a heretic and burned alive in the Holy Court Square!"

When Anna said this, she closed her lips tightly, and her eyes showed deep hatred. It was obvious that she hated the Holy See to her core!

David Mo opened his mouth and fell silent. When they were in the carriage, Anna said that her father was regarded as a heretic and burned alive in the Holy Temple Square - could it be said that his father was the Holy Magister, a member of the Roman Empire?

Glory - Jones Bol?!

Damn, this is so shocking!
