Abe the Wizard

Chapter 10 Departure

The early morning of December was a bit cold, and today Castle Bennett was very busy, and when he woke up in the morning, the servants were busy cleaning the carriage, feeding the soybeans to the two horses who pulled the carriage, and hanging a sky-blue decorative pendant on the horse. Instead, the waiters repaired their weapons, cleaned their leather armor, boots, and the Knight Bennett's horses were carefully combed and replaced with gorgeous saddles.

By the time Abel had taken his suitcase out of the room with his servant, a noble battle of six long gunmen and a magnificent but very clean carriage were waiting in front of the castle.

Long gunmen wear uniform sky blue cloth armor, half tall leather boots on their feet, a sky blue cloth hat on their heads, three meters long guns in their hands, only these three meters long guns are the real military supplies, the rest are made by castle tailors, cloth armor at best makes it easier for the attorney of the medium arrow to take the arrow out of their body, not to mention the cold proof cloth hat. Standing at the tip of the gunmen in front of them, they carried two flags with the pattern of the Bennett family's thorn shield.

The carriage is not too decorative, just replacing the curtains and door curtains with sky blue. Sky blue is the dominant colour of the Thorn Shield crest, so in official occasions, the castle is decorated mainly in sky blue.

While Abel was loading the crate into the carriage, his father, the Knight Bennett, came out of the castle on a horseback, followed by his mother, Nara, with tears in her eyes, and his brother held his mother beside him.

The Knight of Bennett looked very solemn, with shining silver and white armor in the sunshine, each piece of armor reflected a chilly light, no helmet on his head, helmet, shield and sword hung on the side of the saddle, hair simply bundled into ponytail shape, cold wind blowing past, hair constantly dancing with the cold wind.

A shield hanging from the outermost side of the saddle, the sky-blue Thorn Shield crest covers the entire shield and mirrors the sky-blue sword sheath.

Mother didn't speak, as if she had finished what she said last night, just looking at Abel like she was the most beautiful treasure in the world.

Big Godzak knew that one day Abel would leave the castle, which was tradition, and nobody would break it, so he would always care about and care for his only brother, but he didn't expect the day to come so early. Zach walked in front of Abel and held Abel in his arms, and even Abel, like him, was under pressure.

“Remember to come back when you can. This is your home.” A lot of brothers don't say much at this time, but this deep sentiment almost made Abel's already peaceful heart out of control.

The sun on the winter morning did not make people feel warm, the wind was a little big, the flag with the family thorn shield pattern in the team was blown hunting, Abel did not enter the carriage, but rode the three-year-old horse and followed the team in the middle, the set of iron leather armor given by the father was too big, at this time he was wearing a cowhide coat lined with wool and a light sword on his back, the weight of the sword was actually too light for him, the gift from the father was not very practical for him compared to the already fourth grade.

Abel looked back at her mother, Nara, who was still driving the convoy away in front of the castle, and Zach, who was holding her, and immediately turned her head again, afraid that he would turn back and tears would fall out of control.

Not many people left the convoy because some of the attendants and guards were to be left behind, so only six long gunmen, one driver, plus the knights of Bennett and Abel, a total of nine, stayed to protect the castle as the second best man in the territory after Norman left the castle the last time he went with Abel to Fort Lee.

It is illustrated here that knights, as noblemen of the lowest rank, are not qualified to serve as knights, and loyalty, reliability, strength of force and non-inferiority are important conditions.

Like Norman in the Bennett family, he fought heroically from the battlefield with the knight, after his loyalty was recognized by the knight, finding warrior secrets from the family heirloom to teach him to become a full warrior and to upgrade his identity from a regular guard to a knight's servant of higher rank than the average civilian.

And many stray knights want to find an opportunity to become a knight's squire, which shows the identity of the knight's squire, knowing that after the knight's squire has given his loyalty, the knight is responsible for all the expenses of the squire, including the placement of weapons, armor, and the family of the squire, so whether the squire himself or the knight is cautious and prudent about including a squire, maybe the next time the squire will save you or hurt you.

The convoy traveled for six full hours, with the exception of half an hour at noon when the convoy rested, and no one on the way to disturb an aristocratic convoy led by a knight, that is, the beasts would also feel the Knight of Bennett like a dormant active volcano, at any moment with great destructive emotions, and drive around the convoy.

It was the furthest Abel had ever been from home, in his memory of 11 years, or nearly two years in the world himself, because in the winter, the view of the road was unattractive, and only some evergreen plants adorned the gray land.

Fortunately, it didn't snow. These dirt roads, though some people and horses walked on them, were much better than the rain or the mud after the snow. Abe heard that the roads in those bustling areas were covered with massive rocks, which reminded him of the cement roads on Earth.

Abel thought that if we make cement, these roads could be as hard as those rock-paved roads. Shot himself in the head, he told himself to stop thinking about inventions and creations, and that his lack of strength would harm his family, just like the castle drainage system in the high court of the Knight Bennett.

As a modern educated man, Abel obviously felt more active in his mind than the teenager he remembered, even more active on Earth, which is why he mastered speed when learning knight skills, not just knight skills, but some other aristocratic etiquette and cultural knowledge that he could easily learn over and over again, bearing in mind that sometimes he wondered if it was the physical well-being he had brought through.

The road ahead turned from dirt road to gravel road, and the road was much flattened. Knight Bennett turned around and pointed to the road in front of him and said to Abel: “This is what Knight Marshall is all about, especially with dignity. He demanded that it be all the best. If it wasn't for the plains, and there were no mountains to mine, he would turn the road into a boulder road. ”

Looking at the polished armor on Father Bennett's knight and the custom-made sky-blue decorations for the horses today, as well as the new equipment on those long-gun soldiers, Abel would like to say that Father, if you had the money, you would have a better face than the Marshall knight.
