Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

Chapter 22: Giving Up the Secret Book for Freedom

Lillian asked in confusion: "Miss, didn't we agree on this? Why did you change your mind?"

Blainey said: "I don't want to either, but my identity has changed, and my thinking has also changed. I wouldn't trust anyone who is not a loyal knight. There are gains and losses in doing business. Warrior Kashen helped me complete the trial, and I want to recruit him for my own use and cultivate him. He is quite valuable. If he is unwilling to convert, I will just treat it as a business loss, but I will not allow anyone to stay with me freely. After this incident, I have grown up..."

Lillian saw that the young lady had a complete set of inheritance, so she had the capital to recruit knights. Of course, she couldn't teach others for nothing, and she would definitely care about the loyalty of her subordinates...

This set of secret manuals is simply a mountain of gold and silver, and its value is enough to match the profound heritage accumulated by those top families over hundreds of years! When Lillian stared at the once innocent, lively and cheerful Miss Blaney in front of her, she caught a hint of ambition hidden deep in her eyes.

It seemed as if overnight, the carefree girl had disappeared, replaced by a woman full of scheming and desire.

In order to obtain the secret book, she used various means to get in touch with a mysterious assassin organization. In the end, she successfully obtained it at a high price. Such a thrilling experience undoubtedly brought her a huge shock and change, and the indifference from her family played a crucial role.

I still remember that time when I went out for an outing with my mother, the mother and daughter had a long talk and said a lot of heartfelt words. However, who would have thought that her mother's earnest teachings to her would change Bryony's character.

Since marrying into her husband's family, my mother gradually realized that it would be difficult for her to have a life that truly belonged to her.

Whether it is taking care of her husband and children, managing household chores, or managing family affairs, she can never feel satisfied or happy. Because in this male-dominated society, women are always in a subordinate position and can never control their own destiny.

Therefore, Bryony was determined to break the rules and carve out a path of her own. To achieve this goal, she needed many conditions: a noble title could give her a respected status; the secret book could help her recruit the Knights; huge wealth was a solid material guarantee; the loyal and brave Knights would become her most powerful arm; and the rich and fertile territory would be her place to settle down. All of these were indispensable key factors.

However, Blainey knew very well that it was not easy to achieve these wishes. She had to follow the secular rules of the game and carefully maneuver between various forces.

Moreover, if she doesn't want to repeat her mother's mistakes, then what awaits her is an extremely difficult and arduous journey. But no matter how many thorns and bumps there are ahead, Bryony is not afraid, because she firmly believes that as long as she perseveres, one day she will realize her dream and achieve a great feat that will shake the world!

The dream of the Kashen warriors is indeed beautiful and no one can achieve it. They once had the same understanding, but now Miss Blaney chooses to give up the fantasy.

Blaney likes this handsome and brave young man very much. If he converts to her, maybe they can play the role of lovers and stay by her side.

Although he was reluctant, Blaney could only choose to follow the secular rules to employ people. There are many regrets in life, and sometimes you can only give up helplessly...

Lillian: "Miss, are you reluctant to part with him? Your eyes have lost their luster again? Do you like that boy?"

"Haha! Just think of it as a broken heart, what a brave and sunny boy? You can't find such innocent eyes in the city. If I don't take him away from the village, he will have married some village girl and had children, and we will never have any intersection in this life. He asks for freedom, and this girl can't bear to destroy his dream. I give up my freedom and let him realize it for me!"

Let Lillian prepare the stock. The twenty pocket watches have been completed and can be picked up at any time. After staying in the magic academy for a few days, we will prepare to leave for the imperial capital.

The title of "Genius Apprentice" proves his unparalleled potential and is the target of the royal family's wooing. They are all future great magicians, so the king is willing to meet them with courtesy, which is a fine tradition of the royal family.

On the other hand, Kashin saw the real secret book and returned empty-handed.

Grandpa Nick didn't blame the young lady for going back on her word and brought up the matter of knighthood again. Money has been spent like water these days, and the two of them are the most touched by it.

A mind that is indifferent to fame and fortune cannot make you a master. The guarantee given by Lillian is precisely the shortcut to becoming a master. The role of money is not mentioned in the secret book. The road to growth is precisely paved with money. Some truths really cannot be written down.

"Grandson, if you are willing to stay, then accept to convert. Grandpa can understand. Now you may not be able to accept a girl from the mountains as your wife. Even the young female apprentices here are prettier than the girls from the mountains. A girl like Lillian is one in a thousand. That lady does not care about her appearance, and her beautiful figure is probably extremely rare..."

"Grandpa, it's not like that. We are of humble origin and not worthy of them. Now we have nothing. If we get married too early, we will be matched with ordinary girls. So if we want to find someone who satisfies us, we need real strength and status. It's useless to fantasize about it."

Kashen did not choose to convert. Instead, he needed to catch up on his studies and find a place to practice. With the stopwatch, creating his own secret book was the only way out. Being a knight would be a waste of time on trivial matters.

"Grandpa, we will say goodbye to the young lady tomorrow. Although this place is nice, we can't live here anymore. I have my own way to go..."

"The tests of life are everywhere, and the secret is right in front of you, yet you managed to hold it in. Good job, you are stronger inside than I was when I was young. To be honest, I would have never been able to hold back when I was young!"

"There's no rush for the secret skills. Silver Wolf needs to train military skills. All my basic movements need to be accelerated. Now that the prey has changed from wild beasts to human warriors, I also need to hone my fighting memory. Let's take it one step at a time! Grandpa, I decided to start as a mercenary."

"Okay, let's go back to the city of Delburg tomorrow. This will be the starting point of your life, where you will practice the art of fighting! Grandpa respects your choice no matter what..."

The next morning~~

The two went to the courtyard to say goodbye to the young lady. Lillian opened the door to receive them and said in a very calm tone: "No need to say goodbye. The young lady is resting now. She said there is no need to meet. I wish you all your dreams come true and a bright future!"

"I know that the young lady is angry, so let's leave the academy now and see you later. I feel really guilty about this matter and I am ashamed to see the young lady. Miss Lillian, can you say hello to her for me?"

"Everyone has their own aspirations, Lillian won't see you off..."

The grandfather and grandson bowed deeply and walked away slowly. Lillian's eyes were a little moist. She was inexplicably happy to be with Kashin these days...

How I wanted to go on an adventure with him, but the lady needed someone by her side at the moment, so I couldn't leave. The Kashen Warrior was the one I wanted, but now he was so close, I could only watch him leave...

She didn't close the door until the figure disappeared. The young lady was standing silently behind her, watching Lillian wipe away her tears secretly, and turned around as if nothing had happened.

"Miss, you scared me to death..."

"Little sister, do you like him?"

"I have liked him for a long time, and I know you like him too. He belongs to you, and I will never compete with you. Now I am still pursuing my career with you, and I will bury the regret deep in my heart..."

"Hey, which girl doesn't have love in her heart? We are both at an innocent age. I have no choice of my path, but I am just a commoner and can have many choices. If you like her, go ahead. It's not too late to catch up with her. I wish you a loving life..."

"No, I cried last night and commemorated these beautiful memories. I decided to follow the young lady and make great achievements. Today we both broke up, so we are really sisters in the same boat..."
