They were just nobles in a small border town under the jurisdiction of the Holy Light Empire. . . So the magic talent shown by my daughter. Be appreciated by the king or professional guild. It is very likely that his family will become a famous family in the Holy Light Empire. . .
This was something he had never asked for. . . But now my daughter has shown such talent. . . This can be said to be the stepping stone for him to join the top famous families. . . .
But his wife didn't think so. . . .
She did not regard her daughter's magical talent as a gift. . . Instead, it was regarded as a curse. . .
Her idea is simple. . . She just hopes that her daughter can grow up healthily in the future. . . Then you can live your life peacefully. . . .
She is also educated. . . She knew how easy it was to obtain status, honor, and money. . .
If you really show off your daughter's talent. . . 100% her future life is destined to be anything but ordinary. . . And it's likely to be dangerous. . .
This is undoubtedly to put his daughter on the forefront. . . war between countries in the future. . . His daughter would definitely not be able to escape. . .
And in every war, countless well-known heroes die. . . And how could his daughter escape this fate? . .
She is very satisfied with her current life. . . You can live your whole life without worrying about food or drink. . . You can make your daughter relaxed and happy. . . Let her get married and have children when she grows up. . . Live your life like this. . .
The couple chatted all night. . . In the end, the man couldn't win over his wife. . . What's more, this daughter is also his biological flesh and blood. . . If compared with the safety of his own daughter. . . It doesn't matter anymore. .
So the couple made an agreement with each other. . Just keep it a secret. . Don't let your daughter's magical talent be exposed. . . At the same time, they also tried their best to hide their daughter's magical talent. . .
From this day on, everyone in the family was extra careful. . Try not to get into trouble in front of your little daughter. . Lest the younger daughter have to use her magic energy to help again. . .
At the same time, this manor no longer employs outsiders. . . To keep it a secret. . . The manor owner only uses his original servants. . .
Fortunately, these servants are loyal and tight-lipped. .
A few years passed in the blink of an eye. . . This little daughter has also grown up. . . Now he is 12 years old. . .
But now there's a bigger problem. . . It’s just that my daughter is growing up. . . She started to have ideas of her own. . . He is not as obedient as he was when he was little. . . At the same time, this magical talent is getting stronger and stronger. . . It will be revealed before you realize it. . .
And this little girl has never learned how to control her magic. . . Sometimes she herself gets angry or unhappy. . . Powerful magic will burst out. . . . It also caused the family a lot of hardship. . .
Every once in a while, we have to hire craftsmen to come to our house for repairs. . . Money is not an issue though. . . But always inviting people here will inevitably lead to suspicion. . .
One night. . . A gang of robbers appeared. . . These bandits are so-called rogues. . They have no fixed place. . There is no fixed range either. . . They robbed wherever they went. . .
Although this group of bandits is not very strong. . . But there are so many of them. . . They are all made up of former bandits and refugees. . There were nearly 70 people. . . Everyone has a horse. . Some simple armor or protective gear. . . and weapons. . .
It just so happened that these bandits came here. . . I spotted this large manor at a glance. . .
Although this is a small border town. . But look at the size of this estate. . . This family must also be very wealthy. . .
The thief will not leave empty-handed. . Now that everything has been discovered. . How could it not be looted? . . At least you have to go back with something gained. . .
And these people are all rogues. . . Here today, there tomorrow. . . Sometimes they even retreat to deep mountains and dense forests. . . So there is no way to catch them. . . Wait until the security team or garrisoned troops arrive. . . They have long since disappeared. .
These bandits began to prepare. . They were already familiar with looting. . . And it's late at night. . They have plenty of time to spare. . .
The leader was a middle-aged bald man. . . Wearing a suit of iron armor. . He held a large ax in his hand. . A black horse is riding on his crotch. . .
All the 70 or so of them were riding black horses. . . Because the leading man felt that the black horse was inconspicuous. . . Especially at night. . . If it is white, it will be particularly eye-catching. . .
He first sent out 5 people as reconnaissance. . . Three of them were responsible for scouting the nearby terrain. . . And what's around. . .
The other two people went to investigate the manor. . . .
Probably less than an hour passed. . . 5 people came back. . He reported what he found to the bald man. .
First, the two people who were investigating the manor said: "After our investigation... there is nothing around this manor... and there don't seem to be many people inside... and the people on night watch are all of a certain age. ...We feel that this estate should be within easy reach.”
What these two people said is quite right. . . Because I've said it before. . To protect his daughter. . Keep her magical talent unknown to outsiders. . .
So the couple decided to keep it secret. . . And the fewer people who know about this, the better. . . So they stopped hiring outsiders. . . They are all former servants. . Several years passed in a blink of an eye. . These people are naturally getting older. . .
And the past few years have been peaceful and peaceful without war. . . So naturally there aren't many guards at home. . .
The other three bandits responsible for surveying the terrain continued: "It is surrounded by flat plains... And this manor is still some distance from the nearest town... It takes at least 20-25 minutes... There are no other residents around. ...So our vote has a high chance of success..."
The bald man nodded. . . The manor in front of you is undoubtedly the perfect target. . .
Rich, few people, and isolated. . . .
The bald man said at this time: "Everyone, get ready! Light the torch!! Get your weapons!! We will rush in in a moment!! No one will be left! No money will be left at all!!"
"Yes!" replied the others. .
At this time, a bandit took out a flint and steel. . Just light the torch in your hand. . . .
Immediately afterwards, the bandit used the lit torch in his hand to pass around. . .
Suddenly 1 passed 2, 2 passed 4, 4 passed 8. . All the torches were immediately lit up. . .
The bald man in the lead shouted: "Brothers, come with me!!"
Then the bald man spurred his horse directly. . . .
The black horse raised its front legs. . . He neighed. . . He rushed straight down. .
The remaining bandits also rushed down directly. .
