"In the next few days, don't go to the town. I will set up an illusion to hide the garden and the hot spring above." Xia Ya said.
Alicia sighed, "I like this place very much. I hope that what happened in Eagle Point won't happen here."
"Probably not." Xia Ya said, "Speaking of which, do you know the history of this town?"
Alicia recalled it, shook her head and said, “I only heard about it in the past few years, and it was because of their beef.
However, there should be information about this town in the Imperial Capital, and it should be available in the Royal Library. "
Xia nodded, "Let's get to know each other. I always feel that the Sahilians seem to be different from the many Brittanians we have seen."
Alicia nodded, "Indeed, the connection between people here is closer, which is very different from the environment in the imperial capital where people are just for themselves."
"Surrounded by mountains, there is only one fjord leading to the outside world. Before the prosperity of maritime transportation, this place should have been a very poor town." Xia Ya said, "People need to cooperate in farming to increase productivity and need to help each other, so the collective view It’s usually pretty thick.”
Alicia raised her eyes and looked at him, "You seem to know a lot, where do you know these things?"
"I learned it in school." Xia Ya said matter-of-factly.
But Alicia was obviously a little surprised, "Do you still have a teacher?"
"Of course." Xia Ya said amusingly, "No one is born with knowledge. Many great people and wise men in history once went to school, didn't they?"
"Can you tell me something?"
"There's nothing to say. It's very difficult to take the exam for that school, and I'm not the only one taking the exam. If someone gets in, someone must not get in, so a group of people spend all day studying, and there is almost nothing interesting.
I thought it would be easier after entering that school, but I was even more tired. I had to study all day, especially when I met a very strict teacher. "
Alicia nodded, and the interior of an ancient castle with a history of thousands of years appeared in her mind. An old man wearing a magic robe and a magic pointed hat yelled at the young Char.
"Are all your teachers and classmates still there?"
"They are not in this world." Xia Ya said.
Alicia nodded, that may be a very long story, so long that time has erased their existence.
"Can I learn these things?" she said, "and the swordsmanship you taught Arthur, can I also learn it?"
Xia Yarao said with interest, "Why do you want to learn these?"
"This era is not peaceful, and I don't want to be under someone's protection all the time. You won't always be by my side, right?"
"But that would be tiring."
"I think I should be able to learn it."
Charia stared at Alicia quietly, looking at the special magic that was exerted on herself after she said those words just now.
He smiled helplessly, "Okay, if you want to learn."
Early the next morning, Char took Arthur and Alicia to practice sword practice under the waterfall.
After several days of teaching, Arthur has basically learned some basic routines, and he needs to learn some other things.
The waterfall fell from a height of tens of meters, with great momentum. The water splashed up to a height of several meters, and the water vapor filled the air.
Arthur stood on a big rock under the waterfall, riding a horse, bare-chested, letting the waterfall wash over him. His face turned red, his body was a little unsteady, and he almost fell down several times.
In fact, an ordinary person would have been washed underwater by now. After being given the fate of King Arthur, Arthur's physical talents have been amazingly improved.
All Char needs to do is squeeze out his potential.
The water flowed through the sky at an altitude of tens of meters, accelerating and slapped on his body, just like pebbles hitting his body one after another, causing burning pain.
But at the same time, such an impact can train a person's ability to resist blows. Zamabu under the impact of the waterfall can also get twice the result with half the effort for training the lower body.
"Teacher! How long do I need to stay?" Arthur shouted unbearably.
"Wait until you learn to breathe again." Xia Ya said.
When people take a shower for the first time, they usually hold their breath subconsciously, causing a sense of suffocation. This is the result of the body's instinct. The impact of the waterfall is greater, and the sense of suffocation is stronger.
The reason why Arthur's face was flushed was because he was suppressing it.
"I can't hold on anymore, teacher!" Arthur shouted.
"Once you learn how to breathe, you can last longer down here." Xia Ya said, "Just by learning how to use a sword, you don't really know how to use a sword.
You need to overcome your inner fear, calm yourself down, learn to breathe, and learn to get rid of distracting thoughts, so that you can be at one with your mind and use the sword like an arm. "
"But, there is water, I can't breathe at all!" Arthur continued to shout.
"You can breathe," Char said.
"I have put a spell on you. The reason why you can't breathe is the result of the fear in your heart.
In your future battles, you will encounter something more terrifying than this waterfall.
By that time, if you can't breathe because of fear, you won't be able to swing the sword.
Then, what you lose will be your life. "
Arthur's face turned even redder, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Alicia, who was standing aside, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but said.
"Otherwise, let him come down and rest for a while. He also needs time to adapt."
Char didn't respond, but looked at Arthur and shouted.
"You told me before that you want to change this unreasonable world, and you are willing to do everything for it, no matter how hard it is, you are not afraid.
If what you said is all empty talk, you can come down and rest. I won't force you to do anything anymore. "
Alicia looked at Arthur with some worry. Char's words obviously impacted his soul. He opened his eyes slightly, his face flushed, and then he took a few deep breaths.
Although the blush on his face has faded a lot, he has become a little pale.
"Breathe the way I taught you before." Xia Ya said, "Let your heart sink."
After adapting to the impact of the waterfall, Arthur quickly found his rhythm. When he exhaled, his stomach deflated like a deflated rubber ball, and his diaphragm also lifted up with the contraction.
When inhaling, it was the opposite of exhaling. He felt his belly slowly being inflated and his diaphragm descending. As fresh oxygen was poured into his body, his face became much rosier and his horse stance became more stable.
He is truly gifted.
After confirming that there was no problem on Arthur's side, Char looked at Alicia again. She was holding a wooden sword and waiting on one side.
"Practice the routine I just taught you again."
Alicia nodded, and then began to practice the swordsmanship that Chara taught him before. However, after practicing for a while, Chara caught her hand holding the sword.
Alicia looked at Xia with some doubts. His eyes were very clear and he just whispered.
"Follow me."
Then, Char guided Alicia to start practicing the routine.
After a while, Isabel stepped on the stairs of the castle and jumped lightly on the grass, and then she saw this scene.
Arthur stood naked to the waist under the waterfall, his shoulders were flushed red by the waterfall, his body was trembling slightly, and his spirit and body were experiencing the most extreme test.
Char grabbed Alicia's arm and practiced sword postures against her.
Rather than practicing swordsmanship, it is more like dancing some kind of pas de deux, which has a special kind of beauty.
Isabel still knew that Alicia wanted to practice sword practice with Arthur.
Isabel tilted her head in confusion.
Are these two people practicing the same thing?
Calcifer floated beside her, a ball of orange flames like teardrops.
After the contract was terminated, Calcifer could leave the furnace at any time, and he would not be as fragile as before. He would burn out without wood, and would only occasionally sleep in the furnace.
Alicia seemed to have noticed the arrival of Isabel and Calcifer, and stopped her movements.
"Why did you stop?" Isabel joked, "I think it looks pretty good."
"What's the matter?" Xia Ya said.
"Char!" Calcifer said excitedly, "Something big happened in Thasili!"
Isabel hasn't gone out much in the past, and maybe she doesn't want people to see her like this. She must have thought about it these days, and often goes out with Calcifer.
Calcifer's stature is small, and if he is well hidden, no one will notice. Moreover, he now has a strong fighting ability. Just like the previous fire demon, after breaking away from the contract, he can use his magic power on his own.
Xia Ya and Alicia looked at each other, and they seemed to see some speculation in each other's eyes.
The town center of Sassili.
At this moment, many Sashili people have gathered here, and they are whispering to each other and talking about it.
A group of West French soldiers in military uniforms were gradually pushing away the crowd towards the center. The leader was a tall Germanic man with blond hair and blue eyes, with clear outlines, but there was a very hideous scar on the right side of his face, from his chin to his back ear.
Old European countries like France and Germany particularly like to use fencing for duels. The sword tips of fencing are not very sharp, but they are easy to leave such scars.
He was the commander of the army stationed in Sassile. His name was Paul, lieutenant colonel.
When he pushed away the crowd, the sight in front of him made his pupils shrink slightly.
The sight was filled with blood. The soldiers who showed off their atrocities in front of Hart and the others yesterday were now impaled to the ground by an iron stake pierced from bottom to top.
They have long since died, but looking at their ferocious faces, one can imagine the pain they endured during their lifetimes.
The open hands formed the shape of a cross with the iron stakes, and blood flowed from the iron stakes all over the square.
However, there were several pieces of white cloth hanging on their bodies, and two of them had their charges written on their faces.
The piece of cloth underneath had several large bloody characters written in blood.
[If justice cannot be served, then we will take up the butcher's knife.
Invaders, get out of Tashili!
Otherwise, this is your fate! 】
On the ground, they used paint to draw a black arm, like a sign.
Paul's face also darkened at this moment.
