I seem to have an extra friend, her name is Bridget Abidis, she is different from my previous friends, she is a young lady.
Who doesn't know her father, General Abidis? I heard that he can equal Darion's father, Lord Mograine!
Of course, the reason why I call Bridget my friend has nothing to do with her father. It's because after learning that I knew nothing about magic, she drove away the boys around me, sighed with me, and gave me advice.
"Actually, you don't have to worry so much, Messiah," she said with her head propped up, her eyes shining like rubies in the sun. "It's still early for graduation. You should be able to find the feeling."
"But I don't feel anything at all."
"Well... maybe you will need to resort to some unconventional means."
"What means?"
"I heard that there is an old troll wizard in the valley east of Brill. He can help people open the core of magic."
"...Bridget, do you recognize the troll?"
"Uh...I just heard it."
We looked at each other, then sighed together.
"Let's go." I tied on my cloak, and then pushed open the door of the hall. Outside, the setting sun dyed the recruit field red. I carefully held the wizard's stone and walked towards the door of the training field.
Bridget immediately followed me. Suddenly, she jumped in front of me, walked backwards, and looked me up and down, "Messiah, I found that your cloak is men's. You must be nice to me." Talk about..."
"My boy gave it to me, Bridget." I raised my chin proudly.
Her eyes immediately lit up, "Do I recognize him?! Who is he?!"
"You might not recognize him. They call him Daybreak. He has silver hair and is the most handsome boy I've ever seen."
"Aww! You must introduce him to me."
"Wait until he returns to Lordaeron."
"You're blushing, Messiah."
"I swear, it's just the color of the sunset!"
"Don't explain, little girl." She playfully shook her index finger.
"Speaking of which, what about you? I heard Osmar say that you want to go home and give birth to the baby."
"How is that possible?!" she shouted, but suddenly her excited expression dimmed, "I don't like him at all, and he doesn't like me either. I don't want to marry him, and he doesn't want to have a child with me. child."
"oh."
"So, I told my father that I wanted to join the army. My father told me that if I like to use a sword, then use it, but I must be good and if I can graduate, then join the army. If not..."
"Oh...it's a bit tragic. Who is that person? It can't be those two Jordans and Skeeter who are surrounding you like bees. Oh, and the one who wants to date you...who is it?"
"He said his name was Marcus. I swear, I think he wanted to date you. Come on, where did he come from?"
"You don't recognize him?"
Bridget shrugged, "I don't recognize him. He is wearing standard armor. He should be some city defense guard who is crazy about girls."
"Oh, leave him alone, tell me, who does your father want you to have children with?"
Bridget sighed, "The eldest young master of the Mograine family, Renault Mograine."
What? !

"Speaking of which, you should be familiar with tomorrow's class, Messiah."
"Why?"
"Tomorrow morning is the fighting skills class. If you can survive Grandpa Tam's hands without a scratch... uh, survive completely, we all think you are extremely powerful."
Her words made my hands tremble, and I almost dropped the precious stone in my hand to the ground, "Bridget! I was beaten like that by Grandpa Tam... It seems that the great wall of Lordaeron was so... Very dissatisfied with me!"
Bridget almost burst out, "The Great Wall of Lordaeron? Oh, don't say that, but Lord Osmar is indeed like a wall. He has a bad temper and treats everyone like that! Let me tell you, Messiah, you probably don’t know that it wasn’t just Jordan and Skeeter who came in with me, there was also a guy named Alan Taylor. He was the most powerful and arrogant among us. I challenged Grandpa Tam on the first day, but as a result, his wrists were completely cut off and his spine was shattered. One moment, he was still fooling around with us, but a moment later, he...he... Destroyed..." At that point, Bridget's originally bright eyes dimmed.
Those words made me feel a chill down my spine for no reason. After a pause, I touched her arm comfortingly, "Speaking of which, who is our combat skills instructor?" With that, we walked into the huge training room outside. Field, at that moment, the high elf with an evil smile appeared in my mind, "Wait a minute, our instructor is not Fernando Zhufeng, is he?!"
"Fernand Zhufeng?" Bridget was stunned for a moment, "Who is that?"
"A... a combination of an idiot and a bastard!"
"No, our instructor is 'Black Shadow'. We only know his nickname, but we don't know his real name. I heard that he is from 'Niro'."
"Niruo? Oh! Lordaeron Intelligence Agency? I've heard that Niruo means 'black' in ancient proverbs. Is this 'black shadow' the head of the intelligence agency?"
"...Well..." She stroked her chin and looked into the air, seeming to be deep in thought with me.
While meditating, the "Black Shadow" battle scene I created in my head was quite cool and neat.
He can sneak into the most dangerous troll settlements and steal the chief's head without anyone noticing.
He can quietly kill the orc wizard hiding behind the orcs in a arduous battle with the orcs.
He can bypass the monster's bell-like eyes and slit the monster's throat.
Oh...I am suddenly looking forward to tomorrow's fighting skills class.
"Who knows his true identity? In short, he is very powerful." After a while, Bridget finally finished speaking confidently.
At this time, we have walked out of the new barracks. The city outside the camp, without the blessing of rows of swords and guns, looks peaceful and full of life. On the main road not far away, there are carriages loaded with goods creaking. There was a lot of marching, and pedestrians were chatting loudly.
"I live in the west of the city. Where do you live? Messiah?"
"Uh... I don't know what the place is called. It's very close to the 'Old Captain'."
That sentence made Bridget raise her eyebrows, "Oh! Rich man, let's say goodbye here! I wish you a good night."
"You too, Bridget."

It was very warm in the attic of the two-story house, the heating circle was running slowly, and there were steaming pie and vegetable soup on the table. After hanging up the cloak, I found a note next to my plate, "Miss Rubio, I guess you're hungry. I've prepared dinner for you. I wish you a pleasant meal. Ryder."
I opened the door immediately, and it was quiet outside. I remember I didn't see him when I came up, so he must also live in this house, but I don't know where. I remembered what Isenlien and Bridget said again. They both said that the accommodation here was very expensive. After thinking about it for a while, I immediately took out the magic pattern bag.
I gathered all the coins I had. I had twelve silver coins myself. Jovan stuffed two into my leather glove, and Ricky sent me fifty using a telegraph. To me, this was already I have never had a huge amount of money, and I don’t know if the money is enough. Isenlien said it is very expensive. Because, when I was at the manor, I heard that prices in Lordaeron were measured in gold coins.
Maybe, starting tomorrow, I should refuse the food Ryder offered me. I remembered that there was some dry bread in the bag that Selin gave me.
Thinking of this, I held the pie in my mouth and carried the cloth bag that Selin gave me.
There was a pot of water inside. I took a sip. It was cold but very sweet. He must have added honey to it. There is also a stack of hard dry bread, which should be very filling if soaked in hot water.
Wait, what is this?
At the bottom of the cloth bag, I saw a very small bag. All I could think of was the surprise that Selin had secretly left for me. Feeling like a cat was scratching my heart, I immediately pulled away the drawstring and poured the contents onto the velvet-covered wooden table.
Ding Lingling
The contents rolled out and shone brightly under the magic lamp.
Holy light, those are four gold coins!
The obverse is a two-headed eagle and the reverse is a portrait of King Terenas!
I immediately held those cold things in my hands. It is difficult for me to explain to you my mood at this moment, joy, excitement, and deep touch. I have seen the thin and small linen shirt on his body. In order to save these gold coins, how long did he spend carefully?
I wish he would appear in front of me now. I must... hug him hard and tell him that I... we will have more sooner or later! That thought made me cover my heated face.
With four gold coins, I think I can pay off what I owe Dallion.
Besides, I might have to find a cheap apartment sooner rather than later, and ideally, find a part-time job.
"Oh...what can I do? Help Mr. Ball serve the plate? Wait for the guests?" I imagined myself wearing a dress like Lillian's and shook my head, "No, no, no, this is impossible. Maybe it's a rabbit trap?" Roast leg of lamb?" I held the money and fell on the soft mattress. The curtains swayed back and forth in the slight magical wind, and the soft hem gently brushed the transmitter. There, there was a message in the transmitter. A mechanical voice came, "You have two late payment messages."
As soon as I finished speaking, two "fireflies" flew in front of me.
It has to be Serling, right? !
I jumped up and eagerly reached out to take one, but when the light flashed, it was Dallion inside.
"Messiah, I heard you were injured? I'm very worried. I ordered medicine from Axmist Alchemy Workshop for you, and it will be delivered tomorrow. Also, please stay there, that's me I have never had the chance to say thank you to you. A few years ago, your sword made me realize what it takes to be a real man."
Well, thank you?
I frowned and thought for a moment, feeling that I still couldn't accept his gratitude piled up with gold coins with peace of mind.
And, it seems, I still owe him a potion, and oh my God, God knows how expensive the potion is! I couldn't help but glance at the pile of potions Wendell gave me. Maybe, I could turn them into cash?
For a moment, I suddenly felt a little angry.
Sighing, I took another "Firefly". This time, it was Dallion who appeared in the blurry purple light.
"I will return to Lordaeron soon, Messiah. I hope that we can become true friends by then. I...I am looking forward to it. I have trained very hard in the past few years. I am sure that this time you will definitely not I will be disappointed."
The light went out, and I looked at the purple light transmitter, but there was nothing inside.
