A few days later, Williams' mother enjoyed afternoon tea with him and said to him, "Recently, you have made great progress in your studies. Recently, Master Etol and Master Nebo released a lighting lamp that can be controlled by hand. Brightness and darkness, the brightest level can even illuminate the area within five meters as bright as daytime, and there is also a secret key that can be exploded immediately for self-defense. My mother bought one and put it in your bedroom, so that you It’s also more convenient for reading at night.”

People call warlocks masters.

Naturally, Williams would not refuse. He curled his lips slightly and said in a low voice, "Thank you mother, I like this gift very much."

"That's good." Williams' mother nodded in satisfaction.

She asked again: "How is Teacher Celine? Are you still used to her teaching method? The teaching of the last teacher Catherine was a bit rushed."

Williams smiled: "The teacher is very attentive to me, but he talks too much."

"What?" His mother's eyes flickered, and she took a sip from the teacup.

"It's nothing special, it's just that during the chat, he told me too much about my father." Williams pretended to be displeased. Do better."

Then he saw his mother slowly spread a bright smile, and said softly: "So that's the case, that's really talking too much..."

Williams didn't answer the question. Talking too much about some things will make people suspicious. His mother is not a fool, so she will naturally know how to deal with it.

He divided the small cake into small pieces with a fork, put them in his mouth gracefully, implicitly expressed his love for the cake and his compliments to the chef, and then performed a piano piece for his mother, before returning to his room.

There is no entertainment in this era, and people's greatest pastime is listening to operas or watching performances in the Colosseum, or inviting companions to ride horses for fun, but for a four-year-old child like Williams, he can only Play at home.

Williams was not a child, and he had no interest in playing.

He sat on the piano, poked the chain casually, and stopped playing after a while.

His entourage David heard the song and immediately took a step forward: "Young master, the master sent a set of shogi over here earlier, would you like to take a look?"

Said to see, in fact, asked him if he wanted to play.

David is only seven years old this year, and he is the child of a servant at home. He was chosen to be by Williams' side because he was smart, sensible, and able to be Williams' playmate.After half a year of training, his etiquette is already good, but his temper is still a bit childish, so he asked whether he wants to play or not. If he is a little older, he will know to let Williams practice the piano for a while, let the host Seeing the young master's hard work, only if the young master's life is more favored, he will have a better life.

Williams shook his head, suddenly remembered something, and said, "David, go and get my box."

The box refers to his collection and property, and some gifts that he receives every year on birthdays and banquets, all of which are handed over to him by his mother, so he also has a small fortune.

David quickly moved a few things over.

Some gifts are relatively large, and the boxes are relatively large, which can be described as a heavy burden for a seven-year-old child.David wrinkled his face, held his breath, and pushed the big boxes over with all his strength, without even humming, let alone running out to find someone to carry them.

In his heart, since the young master ordered him to do something, he must try his best to complete it, and he would not find someone to lighten the burden if he clearly had the means to finish it.

Williams nodded secretly. David was a good servant. He was very loyal to him and would not play tricks. He was a great help to him in his previous life. Get into the car by yourself, block the knife coming from nowhere, and when you get out, you are almost dead.

At that time, because Williams supported the development of civilian schools, he had a bad relationship with warlocks. Those light warlocks put on their faces, and they didn't talk about kindness and friendship. s life.

Let him learn a little boxing kung fu in this life. Since he wants to stay by his side, he should learn more things to defend himself.

Williams opened the box while thinking about it.

Open the big one first.

I saw some exquisite decorations piled up inside, many of which were even embellished with precious gemstones, gold and silver. If they were released for sale, they would definitely be a fortune. Unfortunately, it fell into the hands of these noble young masters, and they were just playing for a few days Just put it away.

Of course, this is a family with strict housekeepers. If some mistresses are unreliable, there is still a chance that the servants will steal them out and sell them off.

Williams opened all the boxes, including the small box containing various gold bars and coins.

His eyes were slightly sunken, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it was already extremely rich, but in his eyes it was only okay.

This kind of thing can be used for life or can already lead a good life, but if it is invested in running an academy, it may not be a splash at all.

Standing behind him, David looked at the young master's pile of treasures with envy on his face.

It was the first time he had seen so many luxury goods, those things were so delicately made and so beautiful, if he could save money to buy one in this life, he would feel satisfied.

After all, it was a child, and he still couldn't hide his thoughts. Williams took a look at him and handed him a knife.

"Master?" David looked at Williams puzzled.

"Here you are." Williams simply tucked into his arms.

David looked down at the pocket knife.

The knife sheath is made of gold, and there are some fine gemstones dotted on it. The red, blue, green, and purple gemstones are embellished with beautiful patterns—one can tell that it is worth a lot of money.

David pulled the knife away slightly, and the sharp silver light flickered under the light. Obviously, even after being hidden for a year, it was still very sharp. It was a good knife that could not only be seen.

David is a boy, so he naturally likes to wield knives and guns. He liked this knife very much when he saw it, and his eyes lit up unconsciously. Close it and return it to Williams.

"Master, I can't have it." David's eyes were full of pity, and he glanced at it unconsciously. He decided in his heart that he must work hard in the future and save money to buy...a pocket knife. Of course, it may not be as beautiful, but it must be enough. sharp.

Williams refused to answer. He looked away, looked at his box full of gold coins, and said casually, "Then you use it to protect me."

David's body shook, and the hand holding the knife suddenly dropped a little.

Williams turned his head: "David, put these boxes away, I'll put the key with you, don't miss anything, understand?"

This affirms David's status as his personal servant.

David's eyes widened. How could he think so far, he just felt that he was given a task by the young master, so he must complete it well!These boxes are his trial, his task!

"Put it back." Williams lost interest after looking at it for a while, and asked David to put them away.

David looked through all the boxes carefully, memorized all the contents inside, read it silently several times, and then carefully closed all the boxes.

"Give me the small box." Williams thought for a while, then reached out and asked him to bring the smallest box.

If you have something urgent, you also have something handy, and the gold coins are not marked, which is the most convenient.

David solemnly handed him the locket.

Williams couldn't help laughing, and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, learn slowly, and you will follow me when I have class from tomorrow, and let's read and write together..."

These words are very old-fashioned, but they are said by a four-year-old child, which only makes people feel like a kid.

But David didn't feel that he had been shocked by the news, his mouth was slightly opened, and his mouth was trembling slightly.

Suddenly he raised his hand, wiped away his tears, and said with red eyes: "Master, you are too kind to me. David swears here that if I dare to betray the master in the future, I will definitely go to hell!!" This is a seven The most vicious curse that a young child can think of.

Williams was silent.

This era is really harsh on the common people. They have to pay half of the tax, and the rest is deducted with messy excuses. The opportunity to study is only given to the nobles, and the common people are not qualified to study.

Williams had always taken it for granted before, but after getting to know a few civilian friends, he began to change his mind.

The world needs more new blood to make greater progress, otherwise, as it is now, there have been no new inventions in the past few hundred years.On the contrary, after the |revolution|revolution, technological products emerged one after another, like the lamp his mother gave him, after 100 years, ordinary people can control it without the blessing of a warlock.

No wonder those warlocks fear being replaced...

Williams walked out of the small study while thinking.

There were several servants busy cleaning in the corridor. When they saw him, they quickly put down their work and bowed to salute him.

Williams glanced over one by one, silently remembering their faces, but he was only four years old, so it would be normal if he couldn't recognize them in the future.

The lamp his mother had given him had been placed in his bedroom and turned on.

I saw a semi-circular lamp with a wide bottom and a narrow top shining slightly on the bedside table. The light blue light looked very beautiful.

For the price of this lamp, it is enough for a commoner family to use it for ten years.

Williams played with it casually, but soon lost interest, getting used to more high-tech electric lights, which can only be objects that emit light.

He refused David's help and slowly changed himself into pajamas.
