"Hey...hey...why do I have to carry this little kid home when a bunch of guys are inviting me to drink."
The woman sighed deeply and lowered her head, looking up at the bright starry sky without intention. The fluffy braid of her long light gray and purple hair was pulled to her chest, swaying feebly from side to side with messy and alternating steps.
"Who asked you to be my mother?" The child on the back suddenly raised his arms and shouted vaguely, "If you let your lovely son drink, of course you have to send your drunk son home..."
"You brat, who is your mother!" Feeling the weight of the child pressing her cheek onto her shoulder again, the woman smiled lightly, "Although I am thirty, I don't have a boyfriend yet."
Knight of the Holy Law!——The unparalleled glory in the eyes of the world. But deep down in his heart, he is very tired of this kind of "destined fate".
"Drinking leisurely and having an unforgettable love. This kind of life is more interesting than the glory of being the Twelve Knights. Speaking of a title like Shining Blade, it is quite silly."
The first followers of the Holy Magician simply protected the sages. I don’t know which boring sage brought the institution of knights into this world, and then one of my ancestors, followers, also
He naturally became a knight with the highest honor.
The twelve knights will forever stand at the apex of all knights. What’s ridiculous is that these twelve knights don’t even have fiefs, they only have the title of Marquis.
It is said that the Twelve Knights were originally the founders of the non-governmental organization Holy Law Watchers, and the twelve leaders of the Holy Law Watchers. After receiving such honors as knights, they even gave up the land they originally owned. Although there are also some among the Watchers
There are a large number of businessmen who are engaged in funding the organization's operations, but most of the Watchers still live in churches in various places, living an extremely simple life.
"Just to satisfy my own desires, but there is no way to get half a bronze scale from the organization. That meager knight's salary is not even enough for half a month's drinking money."
Sighing heavily again, the woman finally raised her head and gazed at the stars shining in the night sky, when a shooting star quickly crossed the sky.
"The Fall of the Stars? It is said that the Gued family among the Twelve Knights ceased to exist ten years ago. From that moment on, the so-called Twelve Knights only existed in name only."
Shaking her drunken head vigorously, she drove away the messy thoughts. Her drunken eyes looked blurryly ahead at the black earth path that was spiraling up, just wide enough for an armored dragon chariot to pass through. A knowing smile appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth.
In the middle of the path less than ten meters ahead, a young girl was holding a giant sword with both hands that was almost higher than her own height. She was cold and arrogant, isolated, watching herself quietly and without giving in.
"That's not okay." The woman tilted her head and glanced at the peaceful sleeping face of the boy on her shoulder with the corner of her eye. "Miaomiao will be angry if she knows that you secretly took out the sword he forged."
The girl didn't seem to care about the woman's words, but easily raised the huge two-handed sword and made a virtual circle in front of and behind her. Then with a "clang" sound, the tip of the sword was inserted into the dry ground.
"It's a little lighter, but it's much easier to use than the long sword before." The girl held the hilt of the sword and said coldly, "Fight me again, I won't lose to you this time."
"You still don't understand? This is not a matter of winning or losing! What matters is whether you have the ability to become the master of the weapons made by Miao Miao."
The tip of the sword pulled away from the black soil and pointed at the woman. The woman knew very well that the sword weighed eighty-seven kilograms. To say it was a serious mood, it was better to say that it was the heaviest sword that the child on the back had ever forged in order to satisfy his curiosity.
A sword. Although he is not very satisfied with it, considering the length and width of the sword body and the density of the metal, it is considered the limit of what he can do now.
But the girl in front of him so easily lifted the eighty-seven kilogram weight with one hand and pointed it at herself.
"If I lose again, then you will teach me to have such an ability." The girl said, neither humble nor haughty, "But if you lose..."
"I know, I know. If I lose, I will ask Miaomiao to forge a sword for you seriously..."
"No, that's a problem between me and the Forging Master." The girl raised her voice slightly, "If you lose, you have to tell me your name. I don't even know the name of my opponent. This is an insult to me."
What a special girl. Thinking like this, the woman gently put the child on her back in the haystacks by the roadside and lay down. She pulled out the dagger from the short sheath on her left leg. Her body was filled with natural lightness, but her heart was full of lightness.
Overflowing with infinite excitement, I returned to the middle of the trail.
I felt it, I felt it so clearly - this long-lost touch, this exciting collision. From the girl's body, there was a strong desire, a desire to fight, and a determination to win. There was no hesitation, no wavering.
When it came, the girl held up the giant sword with one hand, pointing the sword tip at her body, and rushed over at an extremely fast speed.
There are no flaws. No matter which side she avoids, the girl can control her movements by just shaking her wrist.
Although you can avoid a large distance at a faster speed than the girl, it is no different from giving up. In this case, it is better to leave it to your own body.
He stopped thinking and relied entirely on his intuition cultivated through countless battles. He tapped his toes and leisurely jumped up. The moment the tip of the sword touched his clothes, he jumped up and landed on the front of the sword that was about to stab him.
The body was half-crouched, her left hand was supported on the cold metal, and her left arm holding the dagger was slanted behind her. The woman once again showed a faint smile.
The girl was stunned by her sudden move, but she quickly made a countermeasure. She actually took away the strength in her hand, and the tip of the sword tilted downwards, and was pressed down by the weight of her own body.
Instantly losing her balance, the woman hurriedly kicked off her legs and somersaulted her body backwards, so that she did not fall to the ground.
However, the girl did not give her a chance to breathe. She immediately dragged the giant sword diagonally, took two steps toward herself, raised the sword horizontally, held the sword with both hands, and slashed towards her neck with a backhand.
In panic, the woman could have cut off the giant sword, but thinking about the reaction of the child who forged the sword when he saw the broken sword, she had to give up such a plan. In desperation, she had no choice but to make an astonishing move, and at the same time
He took a step forward, bumped into the girl's arms, twirled the dagger in his hand, and stabbed the girl's waist.
Time seemed to have stopped, and both of them stood still.
Only a gust of wind passed by, blowing their hair.
The arms were crossed, and the woman's dagger pointed at the spot where the girl had been hit by her fist earlier. The girl's two-handed giant sword was resting on the woman's shoulders.
"My name is Zijin." The woman said calmly, "Your sword skills are quite good, and some of them seem to come from the palace. However, your teacher seems not to have put much emphasis on teaching you, and only taught you some flashy moves."
"Teacher, I don't remember any teacher I had." The girl said calmly, "My swordsmanship came from fighting dragon beasts. But I wouldn't mind if a decent teacher gave me some guidance on swordsmanship."
"Hahaha……"
"Hehehehehe..."
Bauhinia and Zero laughed at the same time.
A boy sleeping in the grass not far away was awakened by laughter. He rubbed his groggy eyes and looked inexplicably at the two guys in the middle of the path, who were looking at each other and laughing, as if they were going to kill each other.
Copper scales - the currency of the Magic Palace, are divided into gold shells, silver leaves, and copper scales. The ratios are "1 gold shell = 100 silver leaves = 1000 copper scales. (ps: for one copper scale, you can buy two in the tavern
A big glass of good draft beer.)
