Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 17 Sourness

John smiled: "There are two guardian homes and weak guardians in the Cavaliers Code. I don't think I have violated it. Sir Wien must understand. By comparison, the words of your gangsters don't seem to be trustworthy."

"You have no evidence!" Jackson seemed vicious.

Many people know that making all witnesses unwilling or daring to testify is a gangster's good show, and the church generally does not intervene in this kind of thing. Besides, the big man behind the Aaron gang is not without influence in the church.

Lucien laughed, recalling the lines of bullies, nobles and knights he had heard and seen before, and said with a high attitude: "Evidence? He is a knight servant, you are a gang leader, this is evidence ! "

From the Bronze Crown Tavern, Lucian knew that in the Principality of Vaorite, the knights were real nobles, and their official servants, although not high in status, were definitely not low. Therefore, they believed that Jackson ’s gangster leader was not qualified. To frame a knight servant, after all, there is no other great benefit for himself and John to make Aaron's gangsters move.

On the contrary, it was John, who had always been influenced by the spirit of chivalry and the rules, and Aunt Elisa thought so, so it was inevitable that he was a little fooled by Jackson.

Jackson was blocked by Lucien ’s words, silenced, and framed a knight servant. For the Aaron gang, it was indeed possible, but there were many relationships and resources that needed to be used. How could Aaron ’s boss be His own little boss shot, especially the atmosphere of Aalto seems a bit strange recently. Under calm, it seems that there are a lot of undercurrents surging, even the boss of Aaron has been walking secretly all day long, I do n’t know what is planning, so he just It was really just scaring John.

Besides, this matter is not a bloody feud. There is no need to gamble on your own future and life.

When he became the boss, Jackson naturally lost his enthusiasm for himself.

So Jackson said hardly: "How much compensation do you need? I only have two silver nells."

Lucien saw that he succeeded in frightening Jackson, turned his head to look at John, let him decide, and at the same time looked at the far end of the street, whispered: "It seems that the sheriff has brought someone over, let's leave quickly, lest Things are going wrong. "

As for the Aaron gangsters, it is not difficult to deal with the sheriff, it is not difficult to think of a reason to get out.

Although Lucian was a little worried about the secret revenge after the gang, and occasionally thought about the possibility of completely suppressing or cutting off the future, at this time, neither his own strength nor John ’s strength was enough to complete, and killing people on the street really hurt John. Expelled.

John adhered to the Cavaliers' Code, did not think about blackmailing Jackson, and nodded: "Okay, just compensate two silver nals."

Lucien was just robbed of more than forty copper fairies and some unprocessed garbage. The rest of the money was carefully hidden in a corner of the witch ruins. Because of the fear of the witch and the curse, the villains did not Dare to get close, so I did n’t find that, with the broken furniture, at most one silver nar, more than two silver nars, doubled.

Jackson struggled to take out his money bag and threw it to John. There were only two silver nells inside: "Copper rewarded them just now."

John poured out two beautiful shiny silver coins, handed them to Lucien, and then threw the purse at Jackson's hand: "Would you like to search the villains and get the Copper Fair you robbed back?"

After taking Yinal, Lucian's chin raised to the sheriff and his subordinates, who were getting closer: "It's too late, let's go."

Although he was caught face-to-face by the sheriff, he might not be punished in any way, but with caution, Lucien did n’t dare to gamble on John ’s future, so he did n’t give up those lovely copper fairs with much heartache.

"Okay!" John picked up the stick, leaving no physical evidence, and Lucien picked up the dagger that Jackson fell out.

Then Lucian and John ran up and ran towards the other street, then into the alley, and soon disappeared into the market area.

…………

"Huh, don't run, it's almost time, take a break." Lucien saw that she had ran back to a remote corner of the slum, finally letting her mind back, leaning on the wall and gasping for breath, only to find her leg It's so soft. I've calculated that I really ran a lot of roads this morning, so I just sat down on the ground and said with a smile, "Oh, no strength, shout."

John also panted, seeing that Lucien ’s two wounds were not deep, and the bleeding had stopped, so he sat down and leaned on Lucien: "I do n’t have much energy anymore, just surrounded by them. Tens of seconds, it ’s more tiring than running for a long time, but it ’s so comfortable not to fight so hard in a long time! "

The two sat on the ground leaning against each other, panting and restoring strength.

"Yeah, it's so comfortable." Lucien narrowed her eyes and looked up at the blue and clear sky. The frame just now seemed to me a heartfelt feeling, like suppressing, Pain, confusion, and wandering were all vented, the mind was unprecedentedly clarified, and it truly recognized John as a good friend, so he could n’t help laughing. “Hahahaha.”

Laughter was wanton and unrestrained.

John is very strange: "Lucien, what are you laughing at?"

"After thinking about it, when I learned to write and earn money, I would travel around the mainland to see different landscapes, different cuisines, different countries, and various wonderful legends."

Lucian did not answer, but looked at the sky and spoke slowly, but in his heart, he continued silently:

"I want to learn magic, I want to travel across the continent, explore the knowledge and laws of this world, penetrate the truth of this world, and find the way home."

"Whether it is unsuccessful or not, this is the direction of my efforts, for parents and former friends like John."

"There are already more than three silver nars, and the rest of us must borrow money sharks as soon as possible so that we can start learning magic in the shortest time.

If, before being beaten by the Aaron gangster, Lucien decided to learn magic because of external pressure, the influence of negative emotions, and the yearning for strength, status, good life, wonderful enjoyment, etc., now, it is completely The bottom is a decision from the heart.

John said with a smile: "Traveling around the mainland? Haha, Lucien, although the dark creatures and Warcraft have been almost extinct by the church in the mainland countries on the east side of the Principality, the wild is still unsafe. Those kobolds, goblins, jackals, Like a mouse, it will give birth, and it will kill all of them, and it will not be long before a group will emerge. With your strength, I am afraid that you cannot travel alone. "

"Kobolds, goblins, jackals, uh, can you eat?" Lucien asked subconsciously. The first thought for destroying this over-breeding creature was eating.

John was a little inexplicable and could not understand Lucien's thinking: "Should ... can't."

"That's fine," Lucien said slightly disappointed.

John did n’t ask much. He also looked up at the sapphire-like sky and said with longing: "If I can become a formal knight, I will also cruise the mainland. I don't know what it will look like outside Aalto. Is it like? The bards are just as wonderful. "

"Oh, Lucien, you have to be careful recently, try not to go outside the city or in a secluded place, those villains are real scum."

"Well, John, when you see Sir Wien, you must take the initiative to bring up today's affairs and ask for punishment." Lucien told John.

John was strange first, and then nodded heavily: "Okay. Hey, unfortunately, I can only learn a part of the military-related text after becoming a high-level knight servant, otherwise I can teach you."

The two were in a happy mood, talking one sentence at a time, until their strength was restored before they stood up and walked to Aunt Eliza's house.

…………

Alisa had returned to the district to find Joel and was walking back and forth anxiously, only to finally see John and Lucien come back side by side with a smile, before she let out a long sigh of relief.

Joel opened his arms with a grin: "Welcome our two heroes to go home, you remind me of my bloody youth."

John and Joel gave a hug: "Dad, you must be careful these days, I worry that those villains are doing bad things behind."

"This kind of villain is actually the most timid. You beat them fiercely for a while, but they dare not do anything." Joel smiled, and then his face became serious. "In fact, you should ask Wei Sir, you are his servant. Your every move is related to his dignity and glory. "

John also knew that he had done too rashly: "Yes, Dad, when I return to the manor, I will ask the sir for punishment." He was initially worried that Sir Wien would disagree.

Aunt Eliza took out a clean old cloth on one side and bandaged Lucien's wound.

After a while, Lucien saw that there was nothing wrong, so she stood up and said goodbye, preparing to go to the Copper Crown Tavern one hour before lunch and borrow money from a loan shark merchant to make up five silver nar. important things.

"If I can learn magic smoothly, loan repayment should not be a problem. If I can't, it is more dangerous, but there is nothing that is rewarding and not risky."

With the consequences of usury, Lucien is ready to bear it.

"Little Evans, wait." Joel suddenly stopped Lucien.

Lucien turned around in doubt: "Uncle Joel, what else?"

Joel took out a very old and simple purse and handed it to Lucien: "This is eight silver narrs, you take it."

"Uncle Joel, Aunt Alisa, you guys?" Lucien was a little overwhelmed. In his heart, he always felt that Uncle Joel's family should be as poor as himself, and Ivan had not grown up, so he never considered it. The possibility of borrowing money from them.

Elisa smiled on the side: "Little Evans, your uncle Joel has not much money. These were only saved in the last two years. Although they are not many, they should be able to start you learning words."

"But this is all your savings ..." Lucien felt a bit sour in her eyes.

Joel laughed and patted Lucian's shoulder: "Before, because of little John, we had a hard time, and your father often helped us. When you learn words, you can find decent and lucrative jobs. Will it not be returned to us? Or are you worried that you will not learn words? "

"I'm very confident, Uncle Joel." Lucian nodded heavily.

"Although the money, plus your own, can only let you study for two months, we all work together to at least ensure that you can learn a month's writing every three or four months, so Lucien, yourself It ’s up to you to work hard. How much you can learn is up to you. ”Joel ’s words regarded Lucien ’s study of writing as his own.

Lucian's eyes were a little blurry: "Thank you, Uncle Joel, Aunt Alyssa, John." At the same time, he made a secret decision to make Uncle Joel's family better and leave as soon as possible after mastering certain magic Aalto, they cannot be involved in such dangerous things.

When she left Aunt Eliza's house, Lucien's destination was a bronze crown tavern, but instead of borrowing money, she was looking for scholars and learning words.
