Vol 9 Chapter 12: "Difficult" tasks
Although for the same age, Hathaway's mathematical knowledge has been very advanced, but in the eyes of Douglas and Fernando, this is really not a problem worth spending too much brainpower, so Hathaway constantly flipped through the books She kept pointing her finger at one of the topics without saying a word, and then waited for a standard, simple answer. Every time, she was not disappointed.
Sharp, the knight teacher Sharp who was drinking spirits while eating honey grilled fish, was gradually attracted by the situation here, forgetting to talk with Old Green, frowned slightly, and carefully looked at Douglas and Fernando.
Maybe it was because of a little excitement. Hathaway's face was slightly chalkier than before. It was a long time before she closed the chalk book, lowered her head, and whispered, "Thank you."
As Fernando was about to laugh at two words, Sharp suddenly dropped the wine glass in his hand and stood up from the high chair. He laughed and said, "Lao Green, I can't think of your guests here. Besides being a philosopher, I'm still a mathematician. Look better than those court teachers ... "
He said something to Old Green, but a pair of clear blue eyes stared at Douglas and Fernando.
Old Green picked up Sharp's drinking glass, put it in the sink to wash, and mumbled, "What's weird about this, many guys who are good at mathematics have a little philosophical thinking."
"Yes, mathematics is the ultimate embodiment of philosophy." Douglas laughed along Old Green's words.
南 Fernando pouted his lips and turned his head to the side, disdainful to talk to Sharp, a barbarian.
Sharp hesitated, no longer staring at Douglas and Fernando, but slowly pacing to Hathaway, smiling at her with a little bit of chilled honey grilled fish: "Hathaway, grill fish here How does it taste? "
"Yes." Hathaway, who was still her knight teacher, was still succinct and refused to say more than half a word.
"After we have tasted, we should also leave, you have to go back for dinner" meal, I can't let them know that I take you to eat casually. Sharp said with a smile.
Hathaway took off the white handkerchief hanging on the left side of the knight's uniform, wiped the corner of her mouth gently, and nodded gently: "Um."
"Get your knight sword, don't discard it at will, but remember that you can't affect yourself for it. The life of a knight lies in his creed, his spirit, his own will, not the sword in his hand." Sharp finally The previous thing taught Hathaway a few words.
Erhai Haowei held up a huge sword higher than her, and frowned slightly. There seemed to be a little disapproval of this statement, but she did not directly refute it, but followed with a little thoughtfulness and sternly followed Sharp toward the hotel door.
Just stepping out of the door, she suddenly turned her head, still expressionless, but the indifference in those silver-gray eyes seemed to be a little softer. Then, she nodded slightly to Douglas and Fernando, and seemed to thank them again for their mathematics. Guidance on issues.
After they were gone, Fernan said with a smile and a little humming: "Silver gray eyes, indifferent eyes, she is a descendant of the Huffenberg family, don't know what is the relationship with the" Sword of Truth "?"
Yu Guang, who stared at the corner of his eyes, looked at Old Green, waiting for his answer.
"Sword of Truth" is the title of King Holm's Williamson Hoffenberg. He is a legend stronger than "Time Heart" Ketonia. He was the first to follow the "God of Truth" to resist the magic empire. Therefore, the "God of Truth" specifically lowered the grace of God, and "blessed" him an epic sword consistent with his bloodline, which was also named "Sword of Truth".
"You don't need to know." Old Green replied without raising his eyes.
Fernando snorted: "This kind of thing is well-investigated, not everyone thinks it is a secret like you old dead guy."
Lao Greene turned a deaf ear to his taunt, wiping his glass intently.
一 大 Fernando knocked on Douglas's door early the next morning. After he woke up, he found that he had a new idea about a certain magic problem, so he happily came to communicate.
"I admit that my opinion yesterday was a bit wrong ..." Just as the door opened, Fernando said sincerely, but only half of what he said ended abruptly because there was more than Douglas in the room. Anymore? "
坐 Since sitting on the back chair in front of the desk, Vice President Lige was "snarled" away a few days ago!
"Can't I come?" Lige touched his hawk nose, his voice somber and authentic.
Fernando hesitated, just about to sneer Rig's face, but was interrupted by Douglas: "President Rig is here to explain my task."
任务 "Mission? What mission needs you Nine Ring Great Chalk Master to do? Study Allinge?" Fernando's expression began to become serious.
Douglas smiled peacefully: "Let me find a way to become Hathaway's mathematics teacher, privately, and by the way measure her magical talent, and if possible, guide her on the magical road."
"She lives in the Hofenberg family very high?" Fernando's first reaction was this, and there was no doubt about the union's program of action to attract the noble chalks.
"Her father was the youngest and most beloved child of the" Sword of Truth ", called Ludwig. He was also a knight entrusted to the hope of the second legendary strongman of the Huffenberg family. Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly at a certain site. So, the "Sword of Truth" transferred his affection to his only daughter, Hathaway, and was very affectionate. She never disapproved of her lack of chivalry. "Rig's voice introduced the general situation without any undulations, after all Fernando Yesterday was also involved in "teaching" Hathaway.
Fernando pouted: "Why don't you let me go? I think I will be a very good teacher."
He just said casually, the relative age is still very young, he has not yet taught the students the idea.
"You? Hehe." Rig answered without a smile.
Douglas shook his head, too, and seemed to feel that Fernando, who was also irritable, could not be a good teacher.
Fernando snorted, expressing strong dissatisfaction with their attitude and cracking down: "Sharp is most likely the golden knight. Be careful to be discerned by him, that will bring about the serious consequences of the destruction of the entire union, and," The truth of truth Sword 'is a very, very devout believer. Even if he can entice Hathaway into the magical path, I doubt he will support us secretly, but kill Hathaway directly. He has always been decisive. "
"Pious believers and qualified kings have always been contradictory. I noticed that the 'Sword of Truth' became more and more like the latter." Lige said something meaningfully, then stood up and walked out the door.
Fernando stunned for a moment before he said arrogantly after he crossed himself: "It's not that loud ..."
The top breakfast at the "Baked Fish Hotel" is a piece of white bread, a pinch of butter and a piece of grilled fish. Fernando muttered "how is it" and ate it with a big mouth. For him who has not yet held any life extension ceremony, Say, appetite is as strong as ever.
After swallowing a few bites of food, Fernando struggled to distract his mind and asked vaguely: "How do you plan to become a mathematics teacher in Hathaway's private? Since her status is so important, I don't think the 'Blue Demon' Sharp Society Let her stay with a stranger and let you guide her on the magic path. "
He has eliminated Sharp's identity, the deputy head of the Knight of the "Sword of Truth", a ninth-level golden knight, and the "Blue Gift". Among the magicians, this title has been replaced by the "Blue Demon". How many wizards has he killed!
"I'm waiting for a chance to see Hathaway again." Douglas smiled gracefully after swallowing the food. "I don't know how she got along with Sharp and can't make plans in advance."
Fernando took a sip of his ale: "Not so reckless ..."
At this time, the door of the half-closed small hotel was knocked softly, and then Hathaway, who had changed into a little princess costume, came in with a light blue cover of the book. It was still Qi Liu Hai, shawl hair, Behind her, Sharp with a raised nose bridged his hands behind him, followed with a smile.
He stunned, and Hathaway ran towards the "dining table" of Douglas and Fernando lightly.
"Follow me ..." Fernando still owed so much.
This caused Hathaway to subconsciously slow down the pace, slowly walked in front of the two of them, spread the books out of the empty place on the table, and turned to a page that had been folded a long time ago.
She stabbed one of the questions with her thin fingers, her palms raised slightly, and she fixedly looked at Douglas and Fernando with a pair of indifferent silver eyes, without saying a word.
"This question ...," Fernando spoke first, and gave a secret look at Douglas, and see, you don't have to think of a way to see Hathaway again, she will come to you!
Sharply walked in front of Lao Green, took a high chair, asked for a glass of spirits, and watched the "teaching" of the three while drinking.
This morning, Douglas and Fernando tried their best to answer Hathaway's question. She was no longer confined to the original topic, but in the course of the explanation, she continued to delve deeper and ask questions that did not exist in the book. Of course, It's hard to beat Douglas and Fernando.
By noon, Hathaway stowed her books, papers, quill pens, and ink bottles, bowed her legs carefully, and thanked her with a soft, soft voice, as if facing a real teacher.
"I will stay here for another month. Although I have any questions, it is difficult to see a child who loves mathematics so much." Before leaving, Douglas said deliberately.
Hathaway nodded slightly, signalling that she knew.
Sharp laughed, "Would you like to be a Hathaway's tutor directly? I think this is better than any previous job you have."
He didn't wait for Douglas's answer and turned away like a joke.
After seeing them go away, Fernando sneered: "Things are easier than imagined. She really loves mathematics!"
Douglas thoughtfully looked at the corner where Sharp and Hathaway disappeared, ignoring Fernando's question.
Then, the two returned to the room to continue their communication and learning. Except for lunch and dinner, they never stepped out of the door.
Fernando did not leave until late at night, and Douglas rubbed his forehead slightly tiredly and looked at the starry sky outside the window. Even if he was a great chalk mage, such high-intensity thinking and communication made him feel overwhelmed. laugh
"Tomorrow looks like another sunny day," Douglas whispered as the night was dotted with stars.
Suddenly, all the stars were covered with a layer of blue color, hazy, like the reflection of the sea surface, and then, the sound of the tide came from the sky, the sea fell, and the water curtain fell!
Douglas responded very quickly, and a huge translucent palm suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the tide, and then a round of silvery lightning flashed from his body, and the chalk rushed into the current. "Seawater".
At the same time, Douglas's figure disappeared.
Suddenly, the blue water faded like an illusion, and Sharp's laughter came from all directions:
"It really is a magician ..."
