Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

"I'm back with my mother again. Although I'm still young, I can do simple things. Even if we leave home again, our mother and daughter can barely live on each other. I guess the reason why the Emilio family didn't To drive us away, I am probably planning to use my identity? A woman can just win over the male power of another family for the family, and at the very least can buy a good subordinate. Naturally, I am not reconciled to that. Road, but our mother and daughter are unable to resist. I have to learn those messy things from the people they send, but I still practice martial arts secretly, because only this can protect myself."

"Later, my mother finally left. Having lost my only relative, I wanted to leave that damn place, but my mother was buried there. I couldn't abandon her. She was already very pitiful by herself. How can I keep her away from her hometown after she died? But the family's attempt on me also made me understand that if I can't prove my usefulness to them, I may soon be sent to an elderly person The man went to bed, and then went through the hardships my mother had endured."

"In order to live well, I practiced martial arts more desperately. Finally, three months after my mother passed away, I picked up a wooden stick and became an adventurer. That year, I was 16 years old."

When Vivienne said this, she sighed a long sigh. There was a little mist in her eyes. Ryan patted her on the shoulder gently to show her sympathy, while Vivienne vigorously He waved his hand, as if to expel his previous experiences from his mind.

After doing this action, Vivienne changed a rather relaxed tone and said to Ryan: "This is really a smelly, long, and boring story, isn't it?"

Ryan didn't say much, just shook her head slowly. Vivienne understood what Ryan wanted to express. She felt wide and continued to say, "10 years, 10 years. A young girl, again Among the mixed mercenaries, it is not necessary to elaborate on the discrimination, but I have survived. Every year I return to the place where my mother slept, and then tell her my experience this year with great heart, and then proudly tell her She, I'm doing well now, and I haven't followed her old path."

When Vivian said this, the tone and wording of her words were a little more aggravated, as if he was emphasizing something for Ryan. Ryan moved slightly, and he had some understanding of what Vivian meant, but this Naturally, neither of them could speak out in person, so Ryan still quietly listened to Vivian to tell him.

"Counting it all, it's almost my mother's death day. In fact, even if Uncle Bill doesn't come to me, I will go back. But suddenly, I was a little scared. I didn't know how to face my mother. . I have survived the previous 10 years, so what can I do? Am I just going through it for the rest of my life? Now I’m still young, in good health, and able to fight, but what should I do when I’m old? Also, Paul that bastard though It’s not good to me, but after all he belongs to me... For so many years, as long as I can get a large amount of money back every year, he will ignore me, and that bastard Toby..."

When Vivian said this, his emotions began to brighten up again: "Oh, I'm sorry, it is wrong to describe Toby as a bastard, because it will tarnish the term bastard! He is a bastard who was even younger than his father. Paul is not young anymore, and he has been in poor health. In recent years, Toby has been dealing with family affairs. Do you know what this bastard does the first thing?"

"I guess, it's probably an increase in taxes?" Ryan thought for a while, thinking about all the situations that he could think of, and then said what he thought was the most serious thing, but Vivian smiled contemptuously. When she got up, she said to Ryan: "If you come to be this lord, those people in the territory will wake up from their dreams!"

"Oh, what's going on?" Ryan didn't expect that the most serious thing he thought would be the greatest preferential treatment to those people. Instead, he became a little interested, so he asked, "Is it more serious than this?"

"Serious?" Vivian smiled contemptuously: "That bastard who is worse than a pig and more vicious than the devil. The first thing he did after he became the acting lord was to promulgate the law of the first night. In the entire territory of the Emilio family, on the night of their marriage, women are not allowed to have sex with their husbands, they can only serve the shameless, dirty and vicious bastard!"

"What?" Ryan stood up when he heard Vivienne's words. This was the first time he had heard of this kind of thing. For Ryan, it was an incredible thing. He grabbed Vivienne's arm and tried hard. Shouted: "What did you say?"

"Ah, you hurt people." Vivian suffered a pain in her hand. Despite being protected by the armor made of poisonous manticores, she still called out her voice, and Ryan realized that she was out of shape because of Vivian's voice. , He quickly let go of Vivienne's hand in embarrassment, and whispered: "I'm sorry, but is this true? How can this be? Is there no one to resist?"

"Huh!" Vivian's expression was full of disgust, and her tone was full of helplessness: "How to resist? The lord has the only army in the entire territory, and resistance can only be death! And the people in the territory will escape, as long as they are caught. Now, no one can protect them. This is a law enacted by an idiot 200 years ago!"

"That, that..." Ryan only felt that there was chaos in his head. He never dreamed that such a shameless thing would happen on this continent. When he remembered that Luke and Orlando had worked so hard to govern this country, and the country But the people of the people had to endure such a humiliating thing, and Ryan had only one thought in his heart: "Have their efforts become meaningless?"

"In the past few years, no more than 20 men and women have married in the entire territory. Their first child has nothing to do with their father." Vivienne spoke again: "For this matter, Paul once reprimanded Toby. , After all, these people and their descendants are the foundation of the family. But do you know how Toby did it? He promulgated another law. All women who are not married at the age of 25 will automatically become Toby’s daughters. slave!"

"Boom!" With a loud bang, Ryan smashed the wooden table in the room with a punch, and the furnishings on the table suddenly fell to the ground, becoming a mess.Vivienne was also taken aback by Ryan's actions. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Vivienne would never believe that this was the result of a magician not using magic.

"What are you going to do?" Ryan calmed down after venting his anger a little bit. He calmly said to Vivian, "Tell me your plan."

"Go back with me and worship my mother. After Paul's death, my mother and I will be in a more difficult situation. This is the last time I will go back. When I leave, I will take her with me. Obviously, Toby would not agree, because he had planned to marry me with another family a few years ago, and what he was seeking was the daughter of the patriarch of the family. If possible, I even wanted to bring a It’s a pity that the only thing I can rely on now is you."

Ryan looked at Vivian with pleading eyes, opened his mouth and said only four words: "As you wish."
