A true hero marries a man by his appearance [Comprehensive]

Although he promised Ozymandias to start teaching him martial arts, for Eddie, this does not mean that he must teach him more seriously.

Let's not talk about that kid's talent, if there is only that kind of stubbornness that is annoying to death, then it doesn't matter whether he teaches or not.

Eddie has already seen that this little prince has probably never met anyone who can completely crush himself into scum, and has not suffered much setbacks. Chasing him every day to "challenge" is just because he wants to compete for that one. tone.

When he let go of the suffocating breath, or one day he suddenly loses his patience, he probably won't hold on to him anymore.

That's what Eddie thought. After all, he could still observe more.

If the pampered prince can show real persistence and perseverance, well, well, he wouldn't mind being a little more serious.

but--

That's all for the future.

At least for now, Ozymandias is still the kid with the most prominent word "annoying" in Eddie's mind.

Ah, by the way.

Eddie was a teacher...probably poor.

Or rather, very poorly.

His situation is particularly special, completely different from normal human beings, he has been born as an adult, and those abilities are naturally innate, and he can control them freely.

Normal (emphasis) human beings rely on their own hard work to gradually become strong - he has never experienced such a troublesome process,

Therefore, it would be embarrassing for a novice boy to be taught by a man who was the strongest in the world when he was born.

"Well…………"

Eddie had no choice but to let Ozymandias run around first, to lay a solid foundation for the body first.

When the prince was exhausted and frantically running around the palace, Eddie sat on a high place overlooking where the apprentice ran, propped his chin with one hand, and spent a little energy in meditation.

meditation.

"...It's really troublesome. Forget it, don't think about it!"

Probably because he is really not suitable to be a teacher, and Eddie gave up thinking quite quickly.

At this time, he hadn't come up with the idea of ​​throwing Ozymandias into the desert for ten days to survive, but he had a general education direction, and he was in a good mood for a while.

Regardless of the apprentice who was still running in the sun, Eddie decided to go to a tavern in the city to drink - anyway, the apprentice would never know that he was leaving him to eat, drink and have fun.

The wine in the palace is good, but if you drink too much, it's just like that. It's not as good as the rough spirits that are popular among commoners outside.

Besides, Eddie didn't like the palace.

He has been wandering for too long, and he has long been accustomed to the life of living in the open air.Let him find a random cave and grotto to settle down, he can live there, and he won't care too much about giving him a residence paved with gold inlaid with brocade.

Eddie doesn't like this place...to be precise, this country.

It's not that there's anything wrong with people here, it's just a "feeling".

Without the freedom he likes, without the seamless harmony between people he likes... also, Uruk, the only place where he can feel the passion, has long since disappeared.

What I want to know has caught a little bit of clues, and the rest is just to be sure, and then seize the opportunity——

When that was done, he would certainly leave Egypt without hesitation.

Again.

Before that, there was nothing left to do but wait.

*****

Nefertari quietly ran out of the house.

It can be seen from the series of familiar behaviors of avoiding the patrolling servants on time and getting out of the small hole in the corner of the courtyard wall without attracting anyone's attention, it is not the first time she has done this.

Born in an orthodox aristocratic family, Nefertari was cared for like a pearl since she was a child. When she was 12 years old, Nefertari was always a well-behaved and obedient girl in the eyes of her family.

She always speaks in a soft voice, and when she smiles, she purses her lips and chuckles. From her expression to her actions, she is extremely gentle, as if she is not angry at all——

In fact, Nefertari is gentle and gentle, but she still has a temper that belongs only to her in her heart. Of course, there is also a little rebellion that sprouted from nowhere.

Not long ago, because of a momentary distraction, she secretly left the house and went to the nearby stream to breathe.

Although the creek was not far from her home, it was quite a daring adventure for a noble lady like Nefertari who rarely went out.What's more, she still sneaked out without telling the family.

Last time, by the stream, Nefertari met a strange boy.

The young man was called Moses, and he was holding a shepherd's scepter, but he was more than just a shepherd.He has white hair and skin that is different from the Egyptians, and after only a few conversations, Nefertari felt that he had wisdom that did not match his age.

Although the encounter with Moses was short, Nefertari felt very happy, and the little anger brought from home disappeared in the conversation.

There never seemed to be such a wonderful feeling before.

Even after many days, recalling the scene of that day, the shy girl still couldn't help biting her lower lip.

When we parted that day, the boy and girl who had never met before apparently became very good friends.

Nefertari told Moses her name, and Moses also made an appointment with her to come to this stream to chat with her next time.

Today, in fact, there was still some time before the agreed date, but Nefertari still couldn't hold back, and finally came outside the house again.

Not just because there was a slight desire to see Moses again...

Ever since they parted, Nefertari's mind had been filled with the picture that Moses described for her.

She has never been to a civilian area, and she can only outline what it looks like with occasional simple words from the big population.

The nobles who were born to be prominent have always had a dismissive attitude towards places where civilians gather. Nefertari also heard negative words such as "untouchables", "dirty" and "chaos".

It seems that as soon as you step in there, the soles of your shoes will be stained with dirty mud that cannot be washed off.What he saw was an unsightly sight.

Before Moses described it to her, Nefertari was ignorant, leaving only the impression that she needed to stay away from that place and never approach it.

But Moses told her seriously, "That's wrong."

There is a world of difference between commoners and nobles, but happiness and happiness cannot be measured by this.

The place where people live is not filled with silt, nor corroded by stench.

Although it is not as comfortable and spacious as a noble's house, as long as you are accompanied by your beloved family, you will not be afraid of the scorching heat and cold wind.

The busiest area every day is the daytime market, where women and children shuttle between the stalls on the ground, there is a lot of hawking, and men passing by carrying stones can be seen from time to time.

"If this is misfortune and lowliness in the eyes of adults, then what can be called 'lucky' and 'noble'?"

Moses didn't say anything in-depth on this topic with Nefertari, but Nefertari remembered it firmly.

The strength that drove her to leave the upright wall behind her alone seemed to come from this.

It doesn't matter if you say she is naive or bold - Nefertari always feels that she hears laughter from afar.She wanted to go out and see, at least secretly, feel what Moses meant by people who were poor but not lowly.

What was their life, the life Moses experienced, like.

So... here's the source.

The edge of the girl's skirt that came out of the small hole was covered with mud, and she was also a little out of breath.

However, a blush that symbolized excitement appeared on her small face, and she groped like this, walking towards the direction that should roughly be the civilian area.

Shortly after.

The innocent and pure noble girl inevitably...encountered a big crisis.

Nefertari: "..."

Nefertari: "Woo..."

The appearance of the civilian gathering area is slightly different from what the girl imagined.

It's not about how dirty and messy it is here, how complicated and dangerous the residents are, but...

She, presumably, was late.

Moses told her that the busiest part of the day is the daytime market.At this time, the place where the girl was standing was indeed a market, but the most critical "timing" was a problem.

When Nefertari sneaked out, it was around four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was about five or six o'clock at this time. Although the market had not been completely closed, there were not many people there.

The girl with a hesitant face stood here pretty, out of tune with the surrounding environment.

There were still some stalls that hadn't been taken away yet. She wanted to see them but didn't dare to take a step forward.Because, the first time she appeared in the civilian area, there were countless strange eyes cast on her.

Nefertari wanted to talk to the people here, but every time she didn't open her mouth, she just took a step towards the person, and the person backed away, or simply left her and ran away.

Nefertari: QAQ

This is completely different from what she thought!

Moreover, there is another point, even Nefertari, who was protected quite innocently, can gradually realize that there are some eyes that make her feel uncomfortable in the eyes cast on her.

Nefertari started to back off.

She shouldn't have come to a strange place, and besides, there was no one else around.

It seems a little too late to regret it at this time.

The girl, who could tell her noble status at a glance, was lonely and helpless, and hurriedly looked around, wanting to return along the same way she came here before.

However, just as she turned around and took a few steps, in the corner of her eyes, it seemed that there was a shadow walking towards this side approaching.

- Puff.

The girl's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken.

- Puff.

Her steps began to become flustered.

I was nervous for a while, and because the sky began to darken, the road that I still had impressions seemed to have become unrecognizable in a short period of time.

- Puff.

- Puff.

The girl could already hear footsteps getting closer.

She is alone and helpless here, and even if she wants to ask for help from the people around her, she may still be ignored.

As such...

In this case……

What to do, what to do...

what! ! !

Before despair comes, hope comes.

Nefertari couldn't care about anything else, and rushed forward at the fastest speed——

"Please, please wait a moment! Please..."

The man who was grabbed by the corner of the cloak by her turned around.

"..."

*****

Eddie felt like he was being touched again.

One after another, they seemed to be targeting him specifically to touch them, and they were all half-grown brats.

Although it was aimed at him and rushed towards him, if Eddie wanted to, this person would never touch the corner of his clothes.

The reason why he didn't move, and stopped in place to let the man dodge like a frightened rabbit and grab his cloak was because he had noticed in advance that this man was a little girl.

At most ten or so years old, small stature, throwing himself on his lap, less than his waist height, really looks like a little rabbit.

If the person who came to Pengci was an annoying kid like Ozymandias, Eddie would naturally keep his eyes on and let the kid jump directly on the ground and lie on his stomach.

However, changing the gender is not the same.

He backhanded the rabbit... No, the little girl picked it up from his lap, and glanced at her face, making sure that he had never seen it before.

Then.

"What?" Eddie asked directly.

"...Woo!" The little girl choked up for a moment, unable to speak, but she was so frightened by his look that she was about to cry.

Eddie: "..."

He had just finished drinking and came out of the tavern in front of him, and encountered this incident within a few steps.

Although his question was not answered, Eddie looked in the direction where the strange little girl was running, and he knew it in his heart.

Without saying a word, he casually put the little girl who had just been picked up on the ground again, and in the gap between raising his head, he glanced forward without warmth, and the shadow that was about to move disappeared in an instant.

Of course, it wasn't that he was scared away.

Rather, it turned into an ice sculpture standing in a dark corner.

The changes in the dark can just be buried in the dark. Eddie seemed as if nothing had happened, with his hands folded around his chest, he looked down at the little girl who was still holding on to the cloak tightly.

The little girl finally suppressed the crying.

Her voice, not much louder than the buzzing of a mosquito, leaked out: "Can you...please..."

"Huh?" Eddie frowned.

He looked at the little girl again, and then he was speechless.

Needless to say, it must be the noble lady who sneaked out somehow.

Among the civilians who didn't even have to wear clothes, her long linen dress was particularly conspicuous. Coupled with the girl's beauty at a young age, it was normal for her to attract people with evil intentions.

There was no need for the little girl to express her thoughts, Eddie said directly: "Tell me, where is home?"

Little girl: "Ah, ah?"

Before she could react, her body lightened, and she was picked up again by the tall man who was reflected in her eyes, and placed on his arm.

"Come here alone, you kid, you are really brave."

Eddie had started walking.

He only said such a sentence lightly, without asking her why, nor why she knew who she was.

The little girl—that is, Nefertari, lay on the man's body in a daze, and she still had the illusion that she was still in a dream.

Nefertari had never met Eddie, but she had heard of the name from her father.

The foreigner who was suddenly treated with courtesy by the pharaoh and ordered everyone to respect him, the teacher of Prince Ozymandias, is currently staying in the palace temporarily... It seems that he is a very powerful adult.

The girl didn't remember the characteristics of that adult, but because it was so rare, she couldn't forget it after hearing it.

Long silver hair, golden eyes, and a cloak that can be worn anytime, anywhere...

How lucky she was to run into Eddie here.

Also, she wasn't at all sure at first that Eddie would be willing to help her, because grown-ups seemed unapproachable.

But it turns out that this is also a misunderstanding.

"Thank you my lord..."

Nefertari's eye sockets were a little wet, and she almost choked up again.

She had only experienced that little bit of fear, and now she couldn't help being afraid, and she also deeply realized how careless she had made a mistake.

Eddie hasn't asked her where her home is for the time being, and seems to plan to go out of the civilian area where dragons and snakes are mixed first.

Nefertari lay on his shoulders, looking at the faint lights that were getting farther and farther away from her, she couldn't help but grabbed the man's clothes.

"My friend told me that although the place where people live is different from that of nobles, it is also very happy and lively. That's why I want to... see what he said..."

Eddie's eyes turned slightly, and he caught a glimpse of the little girl's downcast face, which seemed to have dimmed even the glimmer of hope.

It's too simple, because of someone else's words, it almost made such a big mistake.

Although he takes good care of children, he is not good at coaxing people, let alone comforting them.

Therefore, it is very straightforward as soon as you say it: "Whoever told you, you can settle the score with him."

Nefertari: "..."

"Moses, did you trick me?"

She asked in a low voice, but she seemed to put her last confidence on the man's answer, as long as she poked lightly, the fragile shell could be broken.

Headache.Eddie said heartily.

According to his personality, at this time, he should respond casually perfunctorily.But maybe it was because the girl he picked up this time was a fragile, innocent, and surprisingly easy-to-deceive girl, but he was not so direct.

Ah, girls are no easier to deal with than that brat in the palace, they are all just as annoying.

Although it was so detailed, after a short silence, Eddie said calmly: "It's not too much. If you choose the right time and the right place, this place is really not bad... Wait, don't cry on me! Really, forget it, you can give up after seeing it for yourself.”

Nefertari didn't actually cry. On the contrary, when the man denied it, the light in the girl's eyes suddenly brightened.

The man said he was troublesome, but changed his direction quietly the next moment.

Nefertari was brought back to the civilian area after nightfall by him.

After the day market was over, there was a night market in another place, just next to the tavern Eddie used to go to.

Even though she weighed several tens of kilograms, the little girl was still sitting on the man's arm, and was supported by him, so that she could easily look over the crowded crowd in front of her.

"The workmanship is extremely rough, but looking at the expressions of these children, they should be happy."

Eddie picked up a bauble that was probably a toy from a certain booth, without looking at it, and stuffed it directly into Nefertari's hand.

Nefertari: "!"

"Well, how is this made, and why is the shape so distorted. However, judging by your expression, the taste should be pretty good."

Eddie bought another crooked cake from the street, the ingredients were unknown, and he fed it to Nefertari directly.

Nefertari (chewing hard): "Mmmmmmmmmmmm! It's delicious!"

"That's good," Eddie said.

Afterwards, he walked around with Nefertari for a long time, before he habitually turned into a tavern for another glass of beer.

Eddie did not send Nefertari home until the night grew darker and he had to go back.Of course, it was not the main entrance, but over the wall openly.

"Next time don't let me catch you sneaking out by yourself again."

"Yeah, no—next time, I'll go with Moses~"

"Tsk." Eddie could finally put on a perfunctory attitude, "Let's go."

"Wait a moment, Mr. Eddie!"

Nefertari, who was directly sent back to the room by him, pushed open the window, lowered her voice, and waved to the man.

The little girl upstairs had flushed cheeks, but she was extremely excited.

It was obviously the first time we met, and without even saying a few words, this girl consciously fell in love with him.

"In the future, can I still play with you on the street?"

"Here we go again, one is dueling and the other is playing with you." Eddie sighed.

"I'll talk about it when I have time—next time, next time."

……

……

"Then, because the man you met on the street later told you that his birthday was coming up, you made a special trip to catch a sphinx as a gift for him?!"

Ozymandias was furious.

Because I was angry, I didn't even hear the name of the person the teacher mentioned clearly, so I assumed that it was a man.

About the same age as him, just "meet by chance", and get the teacher's special respect - a competitor!

"Why didn't I!" He was not convinced.

Eddie: "Didn't you? Did you eat that bunch of beasts crying and calling to be your little brother?"

Ozymandias: "..."

His Royal Highness suddenly realized that his reaction was very wrong.

Why did he, Ozymandias, lower himself to be bothered by a guy he had never met before?

It's just a baby sphinx, so what's the big deal.

He immediately calmed down.

but.

The young prince walked around behind the teacher in the next moment, and rushed towards him aggressively——

"flaw!"

Eddie didn't even lift his eyelids, just took a step to the side.

Ozymandias fell solidly into the mud, in a face-down position.

——what is it called.

——It's also a sneak attack, and it's also a pounce...Damn it! ! !

The prince's mentality collapsed a little.
