One of them taught and the other listened. More than half an hour passed quickly.
Angelet put away the sword and slowly inserted it into the scabbard. He looked up at the sky.
The sky is covered with clouds and it looks like there may be heavy rain.
The yard also looked a little gloomy. Different from the hot weather of the past few days, there were bursts of cold wind blowing from time to time.
Angelet walked to the edge of the well, picked up the black towel placed by the well and wiped his sweat. Then he took off the cross sword and leaned it against the edge of the well.
Then he turned around and looked at Tia, who was standing there.
"Why are you still standing there? Go back first, review today's content carefully, and come back tomorrow."
Tia was startled by Angele's scolding. After hearing the content clearly, her little face nodded repeatedly, showing an expression of joy.
"Yes, Lord Angele, I'll be there right away!" She turned around and was about to leave. But before she took a few steps, several tall figures blocked the entrance to the courtyard.
Two big men wearing half-length white plate armor walked in from the door and pushed Tia away who was blocking the road. Their eyes were fixed on Angelet in the courtyard.
"Who let you in?" Angelet's face darkened. "You just walked into a noble's private residence. Are all the guards in Lennon City so uneducated?"
The expressions of the two big men changed slightly.
"Whether we are educated or not is not up to you!" the leader said solemnly.
"Trash." Angelet's face was grim.
"Say it again!" The other man put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and gritted his teeth. "I will let you know who is the trash!"
"You can try." Angelet picked up the cross sword beside the well with a mocking look on his face.
"Okay, Mafei, don't forget our mission!" The leading man stopped his companion, and after calming his emotions, he turned to face Angelet. "Okay, we entered your residence without authorization. It's us.
It's a mistake. I apologize to you on behalf of the City Guard."
He bent slightly to apologize and saluted.
"This time our city guards are here mainly to conduct a thorough investigation of all recent foreign settlers. We hope you can cooperate with our work."
Angelet's expression softened slightly, "That's more or less the same. But entering their residence at will will have a great negative impact on my health. I'm in a bad mood now and don't want to cooperate with your work. Okay, you can go
Already."
"You!" Seeing Angelet's attitude, the other person impulsively pressed the hilt of his sword and stared angrily.
"Ma Fei!" His companion quickly stopped him. "Don't be impulsive! Don't forget that your last punishment has not been revoked!"
Angelet looked at the two of them with a sneer on his lips.
"Don't be embarrassed, you two. One of your work tasks is almost over." He said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden metallic collision of armor and weapons from behind the two city guards.
"Boy! Get out of the way!"
The two of them were caught off guard and were violently pushed away by a tall and strong swordsman from behind.
"I...!" The impulsive city guard was held tightly by Tongbai again.
"This is it!" A group of heavily armed swordsmen hurriedly walked into the courtyard. The leading captain had a black feather on his helmet and ignored the city guards who were pushed aside by him.
"I'm sorry, Lord Angele. We saw the door was open and there was a noise coming from inside, so we took the initiative to come in to see if we could help you." The captain bent down and saluted, and the voice coming from the helmet was extremely humble.
.
"You just came here now, it's too slow." Angelet shook his head slightly, threw away the black towel in his hand, and walked towards the courtyard gate with his long sword in hand.
"Get out of here, I need to change clothes."
"You!" The impulsive city guard was immediately hugged tightly by his companion. The two of them had been pushed hard by the heavy-armed swordsman captain before, and they were still holding back their anger. But looking at the posture of the other party, the backgrounds on both sides seemed to be different.
It was far beyond the level of ordinary city guards and was not something they could afford to offend. The captain leading the team could only hug his companion Ma Fei tightly for fear that he would cause trouble.
They all know these heavily armored swordsmen, they are the guards of the city lord's palace. The leader of the team is captain Jerak, a knight-level master. He once guarded the city gate for more than five minutes with one man and one sword in the Battle of Andrew, when thousands of people attacked
The city was under attack like a tidal wave, but no one was able to break through the city gate. The corpses of enemy soldiers were piled up at the city gate to half the height of the gate.
People in the city call Gerak the Tiger of Lennon. But now, this tiger actually leads the team in person, as if facing a formidable enemy, to pick up a foreign noble who has just settled in the city. This is the name of the city guard.
The key to a captain holding back his anger.
"Get out of here!" Jerac shouted loudly without losing any composure.
Everyone was well-trained and quickly exited the yard. After the sound of dense footsteps, everyone except the little girl Tia was driven out of the store by the guards of the city lord's palace.
Angelet glanced at the little girl who was standing there without daring to move. This Tia's face was pale at this time, and it seemed that she was frightened by the battle just now.
"It seems that you have been misunderstood by them." He whispered.
Tia looked at him doubtfully, not understanding what he meant.
Angelet didn't explain either.
"I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for you." He walked into the room and closed the door with a bang.
Tia stood alone in the yard, a little at a loss.
"Lord Angele, you must be no ordinary person..." She murmured in a low voice.
As a little girl with an ordinary appearance, a thin body, and a malnourished appearance, with such physical condition, even if she were given to nobles who like young girls, no one would be willing to take her in.
Tia knew her conditions very well in her heart, so she could feel that Lord Angelet's teachings to her were completely done without any selfishness or lust. This made her very grateful.
Her father was an alcoholic and her mother ran away from home without a trace. Tia has developed a character of relying on herself for everything since she was a child. No one was willing to help her. When she was 9 years old, her father suddenly went out one night and never returned.
return.
After wandering on the street for a while, Tia found a job in a pie shop that paid no wages and only provided food and accommodation. She worked from morning to night every day, and would be beaten and kicked if she was not careful.
Tia has endured these things. In her spare time at work every day, she listens to guests talking about various things and topics, and gradually realizes that when people with weapons hanging on their waists talk to others, others will be vaguely afraid of them. That is
A symbol of strength.
So from then on, Tia began to practice sword skills with tree branches, hoping that she could become such a person in the future. Unfortunately, recently, her wrist had an awkward feeling, which was very uncomfortable, and the back of her right hand also felt uncomfortable.
Slightly blue, pain like pinpricks.
Under Angelet's guidance, she realized that she had practiced the wrong posture, causing sequelae to her body. If she continued to practice haphazardly, she would probably lose her entire right hand.
She pursues strength and persists no matter how difficult it is for her. A large amount of wrong practice every day can actually cause such serious sequelae on a young body. It can be imagined how much practice she has.
And this is what Angelet admires. No matter what conditions or circumstances, he can always persist in his yearning for power. With this kind of mind, even if he does not have the qualifications of a knight, he will definitely become an excellent warrior.
So when the city guards misunderstood, he did not explain it verbally, but just acquiesced in the relationship between Tia and him. No matter how others guessed, his acquiescence meant that Tia and he did have a slight connection.
At the same time, she will also be treated more seriously.
Of course, this was just a random act on his whim, but for Tia, it was an opportunity to change his life's destiny.
************************
Half an hour later.
Angelet changed into a clean white dress, put all the important things into his waist bag, hung a long sword on his waist, and walked out of the store.
Tia stood in the shop, looking at him eagerly, completely at a loss.
"Practice what I'm teaching you for a while longer. I'll come back to arrange it for you in the evening," Angelet ordered.
"Okay, Lord Angele." Tia's face lit up and she bowed seriously.
Angelet is indeed ready to accept Tia as his disciple. Tia, a little girl, does have the qualifications to become a knight after the chip test. Although it is not very good, it is better than Angelet himself. She can inherit Angelet.
Gle's swordsmanship and archery skills. Since he is planning to settle down here, he must have a few close subordinates to do things for him, otherwise he will do everything by himself, which will be too inefficient.
Although Tia is a little small now, in a few years, with her personality, she will be of great use when cultivated. In addition, Baile just does whatever he wants. It doesn't matter whether he succeeds or not. Angele just follows his mood.
"Let's go." He walked up to Captain Gerak.
"The Lord of the City has already hosted a banquet for you." Jerak said respectfully.
A black carriage is already waiting at the door of the store, with patterns of white birds and sunflowers printed on the carriage. The sunflower has the same shape as the earth's mandala flower, but the color is golden. The flowers are woven into a ring.
A white bird in the middle has its wings spread out, forming a heraldry similar to a emblem.
Angelet nodded in surprise. He did not expect that Lennon City would attach such great importance to mysterious power that it would hold a banquet just for him.
"It's rude to keep the Lord of the City waiting for so long. Let's get on the road immediately." He opened the door of the wooden carriage and stood up.
With a crash, the carriage door closed. The coachman shouted, and the carriage began to move slowly. Guards from the City Lord's Mansion guarded it on both sides and left the alley.
Angelet sat in the carriage and looked out the window.
