I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law
Chapter 43 Moving forward
On the way back, the two were silent. Sera blamed herself for the danger just now, while Bennett remembered the birth of the Yak Chief.
"So this is how the leader monster was born, Sera. I will write this story into a book when I return. I will definitely observe the birth of other monsters if I have the chance. I will become a world-famous scholar in the future."
"No, Bennett, this is too dangerous." Sera's tone was very serious: "A 16-year-old truth wizard, you have already become famous all over the world, Bennett, I will not allow you to go into the Warcraft nest again."
Bennett just sighed. The birth of Warcraft can be compared with Sera's bed? Don't think about it: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Back at the barracks filled with women, Sera placed Bennett in the tent and went to report the achievement to the lord, while Bennett fell asleep in the tent in a daze.
Bennett was awakened by the cheers of women in the camp, and next to him was the woman who had taken care of him yesterday.
"You've always taken care of me, and I don't even know your name."
The woman who was concentrating on coaxing the child was obviously frightened by Bennett: "Ah, my name is Cathy, Master Mage, there is no need to know my name."
"Did you find a man in the barracks?"
"No."
"So what skills do you have?"
"nor."
"What will you do when you return to the territory?"
"I don't know, there will always be a way."
This was not a solution. Bennett wanted to help her: "Help me get my backpack."
Cathy held the child and handed Bennett his backpack. Bennett put the dragon leather book underneath as a table, took out paper and pen, and wrote a letter home and his arrangements for the woman.
"Go back to the territory and take this letter to find Kent. He is my father. Just ask the soldiers guarding the gate when you enter the city. They will show you the way. After handing the letter to my father, you can choose to become one of my family's nannies."
He didn't ask Cathy why she didn't find a man. Everyone has her own secrets.
"Thank you, sir. I will work hard." Cathy took the envelope and was about to kneel down when she was stopped by Bennett.
"What's that cheering outside?"
"The lord and Knight Sera brought back a lot of yaks."
Bennett nodded, not planning to go out and check, as he would be going out again the day after tomorrow, and Sera's armor had not yet been cleaned and maintained.
"Get a basin of hot water, Cathy."
Cathy raised her hand to put the child on the ground.
"Let me hold the baby."
Cathy trusted Bennett very much, so she handed the child to him and taught him how to hold the child.
The skin of a newborn baby is very thin and tender, and her whole body is red. The cloth wrapping her is very thin and rough, but this is all a mother can have.
Bennett opened his backpack, revealing a silk wizard robe. A blue light flashed, and a suitable wrap appeared. He carefully placed the child inside. The child was very well behaved, giggling all the time. Bennett felt like his heart was about to melt.
With a flash of inspiration, Bennett's mental power swept over the child. This child's soul was not weak. Was it fate? Bennett was slightly stunned as he looked at the child in front of him. People with the talent of a mage were really rare. So far, Bennett had only seen Helen with the talent of a mage, and there was no one in the territory.
Cathy came back. Bennett was staring at the child in a daze. The mother suddenly became nervous. She put down the basin and knelt down beside Bennett: "Master Mage, is there any problem?"
Bennett came back to his senses then: "It's nothing, she has the talent of a wizard, I can let her come here to study in the future." The path of a wizard is a choice you make yourself, Bennett will not abide by this backward concept, there are few people with the talent of a wizard, every one of them must be trained.
Cathy felt a great sense of happiness in an instant. She looked at the child in Bennett's arms, not knowing whether she should reach out to hug her.
Bennett put the child in her arms and said, "There are very few people with the talent for mages, but you have to start learning after the age of 6. You have to raise the child yourself, and don't tell anyone else about this."
Cathy held the child in her arms, bowed to Bennett and said, "I understand, Master."
Looking at Cathy's smile, Bennett somewhat understood Sera's feelings and smiled, "It's nothing."
Putting aside the matter of the child, Sera's armor has not been cleaned yet.
The armor plates were taken down and arranged one by one. Cathy wanted to go forward to help but was stopped by Bennett. People who had not learned it would be easy to mess up the order of the armor plates, which would cause big trouble. So she was asked to be responsible for changing the water.
When Sierra returned with lunch, the nails had been cleaned and Cathy had left.
"Have you brought back all the prey?"
"They're all back."
Sera handed the lunch to Bennett: "The woman who took care of you moved the tent next to ours."
"Don't worry about her. Her child has a talent for magic. I have decided to take that child as my apprentice in the future."
"Oh, okay."
Lunch was roasted yak legs. The cook had cut the meat into small pieces and the sauce was very flavorful. After the meal, Cathy did not go hunting again, but maintained her armor with Bennett.
By the evening the two men had reassembled their armor, and there was smoked meat all over the camp, the aroma wafting into the tent.
"Let's have bacon tonight."
"Row."
By the second night, the meat in the camp had been almost processed. The bacon jerky didn't taste good, but it was definitely enough to make dry food. This was not food for the army, but supplements for the women. Their journey back would be very difficult, and the food could only barely fill their stomachs.
In the early morning, when the sun had just risen, the camp was already bustling with activity. Kenny reluctantly left with 100 knights and women, and the army once again entered the death purgatory.
The corpses were still piled here, flies flying all over the sky celebrating their own carnival, vultures were startled by the silent team and circled in the sky, people walked forward stepping on the rotten and stinking corpses, no one came to collect their bodies, and even their bones could not be burned, there were too many of them, and they could not be ignited.
Bennett felt the riot of magic, but after careful sensing, he found nothing. Perhaps the world was also angry about this hellish scene.
When they reached the end of the valley, everyone finally understood why there was a riot. The stench of burning oil had not dissipated until now. There were many burnt corpses in the valley, and no one knew that one of them belonged to a madman.
The lord's words came from the front: "Go forward. This is no longer a war to maintain the dignity of the giant wolf. This is a holy war to defeat the devil. The heads of the Cook family will be sacrificed here. The nobles who abandon the people will be judged in the most severe way. Go forward, knights."
Led by the lord, the crowd began to charge. What should Bennett do? He was on Sera's back, accepting the ridicule of the little girl.
"Does it have to be this way, Sera?"
Sierra didn't answer him, but the little girl answered him: "You can let me carry you."
Looking at the little girl who had just reached his chest, Bennett closed his mouth sadly.
