“Out of the town?” Ryan couldn’t help being a little surprised when he heard these words. He stuttered: “Go…out of the town… Teacher Caleb… You mean…”

“Dranai, you just came back from the imperial capital. Come on.”

“Okay”, Delaney took the topic and said to Ryan: “Child, the eagle will always fly to the sky, even if he is nostalgic for the earth; when you grow up, your stage is not here.” said At this point, Delaney seemed to feel a bit dry mouth, he released a small water ball beside his mouth and swallowed it gently.

“Look, child” Delaney said with a smile: “Magic is everywhere, it will make our lives better…”

“Well, when people are old, they become a bit verbose.” Delaney shook his head and continued, “Before presenting your Initiation Ceremony trial, I will tell you a story…

About 200 years ago, the evil undead army invaded the continent of Islar. In front of the boundless army of undead, human beings have become unprecedentedly vulnerable, and death and fear have enveloped the entire continent of Islar. However, people did not give up hope. A human knight stood up and raised the banner of resistance. His name was Bird Fernando.

Through his efforts, humans gathered nearly 200,000 armies from the 7 surviving countries, and formed alliances with the Elves and Dwarves to jointly fight against the invasion of the Undead Army. This was the later Holy Alliance.

Finally, in the sunrise city in the east of the mainland, the main force of the coalition and the undead legion launched a decisive battle, known as the “Sunrise Battle” in history. After arduous battles and painful efforts, justice defeated evil, and the coalition finally defeated the undead army. After the war, Byrd Fernando unified the human world and established the Holy Alliance Empire. He also became the first emperor of the Empire. This is the origin of our Holy League empire.

In order to allow future generations to remember this period of history forever, Fernando I ordered that the day when the annual “Sunrise Battle” ends every year is designated as “Victory Day” to commemorate the people who died in this catastrophe . At the same time, in order to encourage people’s martial arts spirit, a royal competition is held every year in Fernando City, the imperial capital, to select outstanding talents.

The Royal Tournament has been held year after year, and it has also selected a large number of talents for the empire. Countless strong warriors, pious knights, wise mages, and dexterous thieves have been selected as ***, enriching Into the army of the empire. As a result, the army of the empire became very powerful in just ten years. The “revenge” of Fernando I’s sword meant that even the fierce orc tribes trembled. These powerful orc tribes were driven out by Fernando I’s army. The South Talun Prairie has been inhabited for hundreds of years. In order to survive, the surviving orcs had to migrate to the northern Taren prairie, where living conditions are poor, and live by water and grass.

For the first time in human history, we have truly possessed the vast desert land from the South Taren Prairie in the north, the sea in the east, the Hengduan Mountains in the west, and the Moyu Forest in the south, occupying half of the Islar continent. One, the most fertile land!

However, with the passage of time, the Royal Tournament slowly lost its original meaning, and people also discovered its drawbacks and began to make great use of it.

The venue of the annual competition is the Royal Arena built in the imperial capital of the empire—Fernando City. Because the rules of the competition are to conduct one-on-one battles on a fixed venue regardless of occupation, this makes it difficult for those participating in the competition. Unfairness has arisen in various occupations.

As we all know, the power of a senior mage’s magic is huge, but he needs a little time to condense the mana and cast magic. In that kind of fierce competition, how can the opponent of the magician give him this opportunity? A mage who is close to a soldier or a thief is doomed to fail; a shooter who wears Yang with a hundred steps can not play his own advantages if he can’t get a distance from his opponent. , Has lost the initiative to fight? In the end, almost every year’s competitive champion is either a brave and strong fighter or a pious and respectful knight, and it loses the significance of Fernando I’s establishment of the Royal Tournament to select various talents…”

“What happened later?” Ryan was so attracted by the story told by Delaney, he couldn’t help but ask.

“Hehe”, Delaney smiled and continued: “For this reason, the Royal Tournament has been in a slump for a long time, but twenty years ago, the current head of the Royal Knights, an imperial general, an imperial capital The highest military commander, the Holy Knight Orlando, stood out from the Royal Tournament. He not only won the championship, but also proposed to reform the Royal Tournament for the first time. Because of his status as a champion, coupled with the increasingly embarrassing situation of the Royal Tournament, The then Emperor Fernando XII accepted Orlando’s reform plan.”

“In fact, the reform is also very simple, which is to turn the previous one-on-one competition into a team’s five-on-five competition. In this way, the magician can cast magic under the protection of the soldiers in front, and almost never participate. In the competitive competition, the priest who can only recover, heal and life magic also boarded the stage of the royal arena for the first time. The marksman who penetrates Yang with a hundred steps, is good at destroying thieves behind enemy lines, is fragile but can summon powerful monsters… everything All professions can find their place in the arena.

Not only that, through team competition, you can also further tap talents who are good at using strategy and command, etc. The Royal Tournament once again attracted everyone’s attention. “

Ryan said: “Listening to Teacher Delaney said this, I really can’t wait to see it. If I can fight with a group of life and death partners in the arena, I will be excited when I think of it. I really look forward to it! “

Galibu smiled and said: “I have participated in the Royal Tournament with Delaney. It was really boring at that time. I’m okay. I fight for speed. I am not afraid of who is better than strength. Lana was miserable. He almost didn’t have time to use a fireball technique. In the end, he went into the air with a flying technique and concentrated on throwing a fireball to bully the soldier. Now thinking about the soldier’s poor face, I think it’s funny. “

Ryan was curious about the experiences of the two teachers. He has studied with them for many years, and he has basically never heard of anything about his teachers. However, Jialibu said a few words and didn’t say anything. No matter how Ryan asked, Jialibu kept silent. Ryan had to give up the idea of ​​getting to the bottom of it.

Dranai said to Ryan: “Okay, Ryan. The story is over, we should also tell you about the content of your Initiation Ceremony.”

Ryan immediately pricked his ears and looked at Dranai eagerly, lest he might have missed a word.

“It’s actually very simple,” Delaney said slowly: “Participate in this year’s Royal Tournament and achieve a relatively ideal result.”

Galibu took over and said: “It’s simple, but it’s not easy. First, after you leave your hometown, you have to live on your own. You have to support yourself with the skills taught to you by me and Delaney, and then look for five people. Like-minded partners, participate in this year’s Royal Athletic Competition. In order to achieve a more ideal result, the cooperation between each other and the tacit understanding of heart and heart are more critical. There is also the choice of the partner’s career, which is also very important. Important.”

Ryan heard the enthusiasm, and when he thought that he could have such a day, like those famous heroes in the legend, fight with his partners and win the honor through hard work together, he was very excited, he quickly stood up and loudly Said: “No problem! I like this trial.”

“Haha, don’t get excited yet” Delaney said with a smile: “You go home and think about it. The hunting in the town will be over in a few days, and your father will come back. Then you will be fine. Discuss with him. This is a big deal after all. This year’s Royal Tournament will not start for nearly 4 months. It will take you a few months to go. Maybe there will be dangers on the journey. You must not only have confidence. , Also get the consent of the family. More importantly, once you start the coming-of-age ceremony trial, you must work hard and don’t be half-hearted. If you are sure to go, then you can accompany you these few days. Parents, and your little friends.”

“Okay” Ryan nodded and said solemnly: “I will think about it.”

Galibu said: “Well, you go back first. Also, don’t keep a straight face, young people must be vigorous.”

“Understood!” Ryan replied loudly. He walked to the door and opened the wooden door. The brilliant sun entered the cabin, and also on Ryan’s body. Ryan stretched out a long, sluggish waist, with a comfortable expression on his face, and walked out.

Looking at Ryan’s back, Galibu said softly: “Old man, he is still so young, will this let him walk the path we have taken?”

Dranai closed his eyes and slowly said, “I came back suddenly this time because of Ibero’s divine prediction. He spent ten years of life this time and accurately predicted the future in the mainland. What is about to happen in five years, the empire will be shrouded in killing and fear, just like the one two hundred years ago. Unfortunately, you know, apart from paying part of the life as the price of the God’s prophecy, you can only know a rough idea. In the details, Especially in the most critical places, it is always vague. Ibero tried his best, but only knew something vague.”

“So you let Ryan…”

“It’s not just that,” Delaney said: “Iberian’s apprentice, as well as the descendants of several other’old friends’, will slowly appear. God’s prophecy accurately predicts this. But they may be friends, or enemies, who knows? But one thing is very certain. Once war breaks out, even remote places like Dense Fog Town will be affected, instead of passive resolution has already taken place at that time. It’s better to take the initiative to go out now. At least Ryan still has a short period of time. This is already very rare.”

“Old friend. You are very pessimistic.” Caleb keenly discovered the trace of worry hidden deep in Delaney’s tone.

“Yes” Delaney said: “I am not like you. I have a life span that is almost infinite. I have almost reached the limit of human life. Although my strength has grown in these many years, our opponents It has already broken through the various limitations of human beings. After many years, I believe that its strength will be more terrifying than we thought. I have no confidence in the future.”

Speaking of this, Delaney suddenly opened his eyes, and a light flashed in his eyes: “But no matter what the result, old man, I will keep the promise I made to the teacher!”

After saying this, Delaney’s eyes followed the door and looked into the distance, as if seeing the thrilling and exciting scenes many years ago…

In the evening, Ryan came to Nemo’s house early. Today is the commemoration of Nemo’s coming-of-age ceremony. Nemo invited friends from the town to celebrate for himself. When night fell, the bonfire in front of Nemo’s house was lit, and everyone was sitting around the raging bonfire. Talking loudly with excitement.

Nimo changed into a new dress made of wool. This wool is said to be cut from a kind of sheep that lives on the northern prairies of the empire, and then processed in a special way. Foggy Town is considered a relatively rare thing. It seems that Nemo is very well prepared for his coming-of-age ceremony. This must be the raw material he bought at the Takri Victory Day rally last year. In addition to putting on new clothes, Ryan also saw that there was a delicate necklace hanging around Nemo’s neck. The necklace was supposed to be made of animal bones from a kind of beast.

Looking at the beaming Nemo, Ryan couldn’t help but joked, “Nemo, where is the mistress?”

Nemo didn’t warn that Ryan would ask this, and said by the way: “She will be coming soon…”

Hearing what Nemo said, several lads blew their whistle. Only then did Nemo realize that he had been fooled by Ryan. He pretended to be vicious and said to Ryan, “Okay, let me see. Deal with you.” As he said, he rushed towards Ryan.

Of course, Ryan will not be easily caught by Nemo. He moved his body dexterously, avoiding Nemo, while hiding and making fun of Nemo and said: “Nemo, you are good at…”

“Of course” Nai could not be outdone, and quickly admitted: “I am the most brave mountain war tiger.”

The two chased one after another, and ran away from the campfire slowly. At this time, Ryan saw Mai Fu coming from a distance. Since she was behind Naimo, Naimo didn’t see her, so she rushed to say, “I know you’re a fierce mountain war tiger now, but I don’t know how to marry him. Will my wife become a docile edelweiss?”

Nemo didn’t know it was a trick, and said loudly: “Absolutely not, even if it is my wife, I have to listen to me at home…”

At this moment, Mei Fu walked behind Nemo, and when Nemo said so, she asked: “Really?”

“Of course!” Nemo said affirmatively without hearing Maeve’s voice. But when he finished speaking, he realized that his voice was wrong. He turned his head and saw that it was Mei Fu. He was shocked. He quickly said: “No, no, I mean even if I am a brave mountain war tiger, At home, I will listen to my wife like a docile edelweiss.”

Hearing what Nemo said, Meifu stretched out her hand, twisted Nemo’s ear, and said, “If I marry you, what will you do to me?”

Seeing the pitiful appearance of Nemo swearing by the curse and saying that he would have to listen to his wife’s words all his life, Ryan laughed unscrupulously beside him.

Nimo gave Ryan a sideways glance, and whispered: “I’m still laughing, I was hurt by you guy today.”

Ryan laughed even harder when he heard Nemo’s words.

Meifu couldn’t help seeing Ryan laughing at Nemo, and said: “I’m teaching Nemo, why are you laughing?”

Ryan clutched his stomach and said: “Nimo, you don’t thank me, but you still blame me. If it weren’t for me, would you hear Meifu’s words?”

“Which sentence?” Nati asked inexplicably. Before Ryan could answer, Naimo suddenly jumped up, and he couldn’t even care about his ears being corrected. He laughed and said, “Yes, that’s right, I really want to thank you!”

At this moment, Mei Fu also remembered the words he had just said, “If you marry Naimo”, her face blushed and she let go of Naimo’s ears. Unexpectedly, Naimo hugged Meifu and shouted loudly: “I am so happy, Meifu agreed to marry me!”

Seeing that the pair of lovers finally came together, Ryan was also happy for them in his heart. In order not to disturb them, Ryan walked back to the campfire quietly, found a place not noticed by anyone, and sat down quietly.

The bonfire burned more and more, and the men and women at the coming-of-age ceremony became more and more relaxed, and they began to find their own favorite partners, drinking together, eating meat together, and singing together symbolizing love songs. Only Ryan sat quietly by the bonfire, tasting Meifu’s craft-roasting pig wild pork by himself.

It’s not that Ryan is pretentious and unwilling to get along with others. Perhaps Ryan is a stranger. Since he was a child, he has liked to sit quietly by himself, rather than talking loudly with a group of people about whose men and women come together again, who is wearing a new dress… On such a lively occasion today, Ryan could still calm down and think about some of his own things.

Looking at people talking in twos and threes, drinking and eating meat, Ryan couldn’t help but laugh at himself: “It seems that this kind of life is really not what I like. But how hard I work, I can’t accept it. Life, if I were to live this life in my life, I really don’t know how boring it would be.”

Lane looked up at the sky. On a clear night in July, countless stars can be seen.

“Don’t know the sky outside is so clear?” Lane said silently in his heart.
