Destiny Thief

Chapter 98 The Newly Appointed Swordsman III

"Oh."

Xiao Qiya lowered her head and walked towards the stern and old-fashioned swordsman in her heart.

With a big sword on his shoulder, Glo said to the girl abnormally, "The growth of swordsmanship requires persistent practice, a high degree of concentration and good patience. A quiet environment that is not disturbed by idlers is essential. .Since you want to learn the swordsmanship of the great sword, starting today, your courses must be adjusted accordingly. Do you know? The difference between the stabbing sword and the great sword..."

A long list of remarks that seemed to make sense were thrown out. Miss Qi Ya nodded in understanding, and then shook her head.The two of them walked in tandem, and with the bandit leader consciously speeding up his pace, the two of them ran out of the birch forest.

The three knights, two guards, and Miss Lena Burrows who were still in place watched the two of them leave quickly.

"Your Excellency the swordsman, has he decided to refuse?"

Lars sighed and said with some disappointment.They already knew about Miss Lina's ambiguous relationship with that man.So, after the three knights withdrew their gaze from the distance, they turned to look at the red-haired girl.

Their mission invitation just now actually included Ms. Lina, the inaugural mage—of course, the smart Ms. Lina understands this situation, but from the recent time of getting along, she already knows that the bandit leader is not a blind man. people.He may have his reasons for doing so.

She decided to ask Gro a good question after the swordsmanship teaching course was over.

……

"Do you have to invite this guy?"

The three noble knights followed the gravel-lined path in the manor and left the birch forest. Seeing that there was no one else around them, the knight lady complained very dissatisfiedly.As a daughter of the high-ranking noble Cecilia family, she rarely encountered such a cold attitude. She was a little annoyed with that man - she wanted to verify something, but the other man's attitude of keeping strangers away made her feel unable to do anything.

There is definitely something wrong with that man!Alyssa thought secretly.Putting aside the distracting thoughts in her mind, she planned to discuss with her two companions to re-schedule the candidates for the mission. If that didn't work, finding local mercenaries was not a bad option - although Bishop Vera's announcement was not It is not an open mission, but those large mercenary groups with good reputations are still relatively trustworthy in terms of keeping their employers' secrets.

It is best not to let the people of Avlon know about the existence of natural disaster forces, so as not to cause large-scale panic.This was what Bishop Vera meant when he handed over his mission.

Then, the mercenaries can only contact in private. Alyssa still remembers the few mercenaries she met in the crypt mine, Barrett from the Rock Mercenary Group, Biden from Song of Ashes, There is also a tall and strong middle-aged man whose name seems to be Cosmo, the leader of the Tusk Mercenary Group.If the Lord Baron can't provide some strong people here, it seems that they can be found.

Miss Knight quickly expressed her thoughts to her companions, but Cody and Lars did not agree immediately as usual.

"Those mercenaries are not trustworthy."

This was Cody's answer.

"Alyssa, things are not as simple as you imagined. Those mercenaries, even elite mercenaries whose reputation can be guaranteed, only know Lille and Rael when they accept the mission. If there is no guarantee from the mercenary guild , it is a big risk to approach in private."

Lars shook his head and explained to Miss Knight.

"But we are not short of gold coins."

Alisa felt that the thinking of the two companions was a bit weird today. Considering the backgrounds of the three of them, things like gold coins were nothing rare.Could it be that something made them become stingy after all the experience from the capital of Erwa?

They are nobles, not those smelly mercenaries.When mercenaries choose to accept tasks, they need to consider factors such as cost, income, time, and risk, but they don’t need to worry about so much, as long as they can complete the task—Alyssa has confirmed from Bishop Vera, This is a meritorious task.After completion, you can get the record of merit points inside the church, which can be exchanged for high-quality equipment, precious potions and skill manuals.Of course, the premise of obtaining merit points is to have a priesthood within the church. If not, the rewards for completing the mission are only some optional equipment and potions, and internal items such as the skill manual will not be handed over to outsiders anyway.

As a noble and a clergyman, Miss Alyssa doesn't mind spending gold coins to hire someone to complete this meritorious task - her [Brilliant Prayer Sword Technique] only needs two more moves to complete it.

"It's not about gold coins. What we need is reliable partners. Reliable! Do you understand?"

Lars continued to argue with the stubborn lady knight: "There is no backup of the employment contract left in the mercenary guild. Those guys might have taken the deposit and hid it at some point. Anyway, we have no evidence. This situation is not bad. , if there is a battle, they will flee if the situation is a little bad."

"how is this possible?"

Miss Eliza blushed.But after she thought about it carefully, she suddenly felt that what Lars said was not unreasonable, she stopped walking, and looked at the junction between the mountains and the sky in the distance and was a little dazed.

"Only an idiot would try to test people's hearts"

At this time, Cody, who had always been concise and to the point, said like a last resort - Alyssa rolled her eyes at him viciously, gritted her teeth and walked quickly in the direction of the residence, no longer caring about her companions behind her.

Lars looked at Cody, spread his hands and made a helpless gesture.

But they didn't know that after Miss Alisa went farther and farther, she actually took another turn in the manor——Miss Knight, who was in a bad mood, kept her head depressed all the way, and she didn't notice the top of her head at all.

In the pine forest, two figures.There are many groves in Clover Manor. Glo didn't know what the people in the manor called them, so he named each grove according to the species of trees.

"Miss Qi Ya, you can try to practice by yourself now. Have you seen this pine tree? You have to cut off the pine cones one by one, but don't let the trunk shake."

Glo found a wooden chair from nowhere and placed it under the pine tree. It was a dwarf pine, about five or six meters high. In addition to the length of the big sword, it is still enough to touch a large area at the bottom of the bush.

However, Xiao Qiya was making a bitter face.As soon as she swung the sword, she felt that the bottom of her feet was shaking, and she almost fell several times—Mr. Swordsman spread a white sackcloth and sat on the muddy ground beside him, with a few pine cones in front of him , Seeing that Miss Chia stopped, he raised his eyebrows and shouted:
"The most important thing in swordsmanship is to master the balance of the body and the accuracy of the attack. Miss Qi Ya, come on!"

After finishing speaking, he comfortably crushed a pine cone with his legs crossed, and stuffed the nut into his mouth.

Nonsence--
