Chapter 28: Frost-spraying red deer
The young man's figure instantly overlapped with the memory of his predecessor.
"Big brother!"
Veria immediately put down Wally and exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you back?"
Thorps stepped forward and rubbed Veria's head lightly, but did not respond immediately.
"Big brother."
Willy stepped forward and greeted the elder brother for the first time.
"Willie."
Thorps walked forward, patted Willy on the shoulder lightly, and said sincerely, "Thank you, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to pass the assessment of the junior knight attendant at all."
"This is what I should do, and the money was not just taken out by me, but also from the savings of my father and mother."
Willie replied, but he was only halfway through the words, when both Lake and Mrs. Shawin in the room heard the movement and ran out.
"Father, mother."
Thorps has been away from home for half a year. He thought he would be able to go home only when the New Year was over, but unexpectedly he came back early.
Lake's emotions were relatively restrained. After all, he had just met his son not long ago, and Mrs. Shawin, who had not seen Thorps for half a year, hugged Thorpes excitedly.
"Thorpes, why are you going home now?"
There was concern in Mrs. Shawin's tone, fearing that something was wrong with Thorpes' work.
Thorps responded with a smile: "Because I just joined the Guards, Lord Kells gave each of us three days of vacation, so I took this opportunity to rush home."
"Ok?"
Thorps was about to enter the house with his family, but suddenly found that there was a wriggling white bear cub under his feet.
Wally looked at Thorps with a strange look in his eyes, and it instinctively moved to Willy's feet.
"Is this your prey?"
Thorps said in surprise that the two had a brief exchange when passing by the pharmacy where Kool worked in the morning. He also just found out that his younger brother Willie had become a hunter. This surprised Thorps greatly. It seems that in the six months since he left home, his younger brother Willie has undergone a reborn change.
"Accurately, it's my pet. I brought it back from Morse Forest. Its name is Wally."
Willy grabbed the back of the little white bear's neck and lifted it directly.
Thorps also looked at Wally curiously before entering the house with his family.
The sun hasn't set yet, and tonight's meal is ready.
There are meat and vegetables, even more abundant than the day when Kool was served.
Looking at a table of dinner with oily water, Thorpes suddenly felt a little ashamed. As the eldest son of the family, he worked for the nobles, but he kept his family poor, and even turned to support himself. As for his younger brother, he silently accepted the responsibility on his shoulders and kept the house better and better.
"Welcome home, big brother."
Willy said with a smile, the family of five quickly entered into a happy atmosphere.
Halfway through the meal, Thorps seemed to have thought of something: "By the way, Willie, in two days, Baron Kells will invite hunters at the town hall to enter the Boler Forest together, you know?"
Willy swallowed the meat in his mouth: "I know, my father and I have discussed it, and I'm going to sign up in two days."
Thorps nodded: "This is a good opportunity. Lord Kells attaches great importance to this hunt. If he behaves well, he will even be noticed by him."
Mrs. Shawin's eyes lit up when she heard the words: "Willy, you have to behave well. If you and your elder brother can serve Baron Kells together, then our Faerun family will be envied by all the villagers."
In Mrs. Shawin's mind, being close to the rules represented honor and status.
Willy responded, and then asked, "Brother, do you know why Baron Kells held this hunt?"
If Thorps knew the motive for the hunt, Willie would be more proactive.
"I know some, but if I say it, you may not believe it."
Thorps shrugged. He has learned a lot of strange things during the six months he has been serving as Baron Kells' bodyguard.
Willy's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed something.
"The reason why Baron Kells called so many hunters was to find an animal..." Thorpston paused and lowered his voice, "A red deer that sprays frost."
"A red deer that sprays frost?!"
Veria's reaction was the most intense, and she couldn't even swallow the food in her mouth. For children, this seemed to be a creature that only existed in the story.
"how can that be?"
Lake and Mrs. Shawin subconsciously thought Thorps was telling a story.
Thorps looked at Willy: "Do you believe it?"
"I believe."
Of course Willy believed it, because now in his house, there is a little white bear that can only discharge electricity.
Thorpes smiled: "There are many things in this world that we can't understand, but that's the reality."
Diamond Town is just a border town in the Principality of Langton, and it is inaccessible does not know much about the outside world. Thorps knew that this was the limitation of his family, so he did not intend to continue talking about it. The concept of father and mother for decades could not be changed with just a few words.
after dinner.
In the yard, Willie and Thorpes were sitting on the rocks.
"Why do you believe what I said, there are red deer spraying frost in this world?"
Thorpes glanced at Willie.
"Because you said that Baron Kells has the real power of knights, which is a power that is difficult for mortals to possess."
Willy said the content of the conversation in his original memory.
Thorpes was a little surprised: "Do you still remember?"
Thorps just said it casually at the time, but he remembered that Willie didn't seem interested at that time, so he didn't continue talking.
"Is there really that kind of power beyond ordinary people?"
In fact, Willy already had the answer in his heart.
Thorps was silent for a while, and said firmly: "Yes, that kind of power is real."
"Master Kells' subordinates have many knight attendants, divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced, but even senior knight attendants are just powerful ordinary people. However, if you have the knight breathing technique, you can break through The limit of the human body, master a kind of extraordinary power, and truly realize the crushing of ordinary people."
These are the things that Thorps gradually came to know after he entered Baron Kells' escort. When he first received this information, he didn't believe it, until one day, he was fortunate enough to see Baron Kells in the school inspection field. A sword swung on.
At that moment, a white jet of air shot out from the blade of Baron Kells' sword, directly slicing a big rock as hard as iron to pieces.
