Roland's expression was quite displeased. He really wanted to say that she was insulting his character — how could he possibly lay his hands on a washboard?
But thinking about it, Mijil still had to be taken care of by the other party, so he didn't say anything.
"Your Spell Puppet is different from a normal person's, self-created?" Veronica threw her broadsword aside, which was picked up by two soldiers. She continued with a smile, "It seems you're quite a genius."
"It was Kaka Bard who made it." Roland shrugged and said, "I'm his friend, and he taught me."
Because Roland had already agreed with Kaka that he would be the one to publish the derivative spells of the Spell Puppet in the future.
Veronica sat down in a chair, gathered her long blonde ponytail to the left side of her chest, and then scratched it with her little finger. Although she was still only a young girl, the movement added a lot of femininity to her.
She looked Roland straight in the eye. "But as far as I know, Kaka isn't that smart of a person. Derivative magic is a profound skill that even a few Archmages haven't come up with, and he can actually do it? "
"He's just hiding it."
"But I think you're very skilled at it instead." Veronica chuckled. "But I've never seen Kaka use a similar spell."
"Maybe he wanted to surprise you acquaintances."
Veronica naturally didn't quite believe it. The young people of several large families in the capital knew each other, and who didn't know Kaka's level?
It wouldn't be too surprising to say that his eldest brother had come up with derivative magic, but Kaka … forget it.
It was just that there were some things that were known to themselves, and it wouldn't look good for each other if it was said too clearly.
Veronica shook her head helplessly, then looked at Mijil not far away. "You want me to take care of this little girl, right? No problem, but how long will it take? I can't take care of her for the rest of her life. "
"A dozen days at the shortest, a month or two at the longest."
"Okay. I understand. "
Roland bent down, stroked Mijil's little head, and said kindly, "Will you stay with this princess sister during this time? When I'm done with my business, I'll come pick you up. "
Although Mijil looked worried and scared, she was very sensible and nodded lightly.
After handing the man over to Veronica, Roland was about to leave, when the former suddenly said, "Right, what's the name of the longsword you used just now?"
"Miaodao."
"Meow?" Veronica's pronunciation was not very accurate. She stood up and said, "I think it seems to have a set of sword arts training methods. Can you teach them to me?"
Roland looked at him in surprise.
"Don't be so surprised. I didn't say I wanted it for free." Veronica thought for a moment and said, "There happens to be a kind of magic in my collection. I don't know if you've learned it, but if you haven't, we can use it as an exchange."
"What magic?"
"Stone to Mud, and its derivative technique, Mud to Stone."
"I really haven't learned it before." Roland showed a look of interest.
"This kind of magic isn't very useful. It's usually used against cavalry." Veronica smiled and said, "This is a trophy I got from suppressing bandits last year. This kind of magic is not used by many people, and it consumes a lot of magic power. It's not very effective against cavalry. It may not be worth much in exchange for your swordsmanship, but I really don't have anything else that's better. "
This was actually a misalignment of one's own sense of value.
Things that one liked were, of course, important, and things that one didn't like, no matter how powerful, would be discounted.
That was Veronica's mentality right now.
When Roland used the miaodao just now, it was obvious that it was quite methodical, and it could be seen that it was a fairly mature swordsmanship system. She was naturally delighted to see it.
Roland, on the other hand, felt that it was too cost-effective to trade the miaodao for a kind of magic.
"Exchange, as long as it's magic I haven't learned, I'm willing. If Your Highness has other magic books, you can also trade them. I can pay for them."
Roland now had more than three hundred gold coins in his Backpack.
His current net worth was already comparable to that of a mid-level noble family. Rich people always spoke with confidence.
"I only have that one. Magic books are rare as trophies." Veronica was also quite happy.
Roland then stayed in the manor for half a day. He first drew the model of the miaodao, then taught Veronica the stance and movement of the knife.
Veronica learned quickly. After all, she was a Warrior and had a foundation.
In just half a day, she had practiced the movements of the miaodao technique to a more proficient level.
After Roland left the manor, Veronica said to the butler, "According to the model on this piece of paper, help me build six identical weapons and send them over. Then send this little girl to the guest area and give her to Ash to take care of. Don't neglect her, understand? "
The butler took the order and went out.
Veronica, on the other hand, drew a broadsword from the side, temporarily using this weapon to replace the miaodao, and put on a stance.
After she was done, she murmured, "A swordsmanship that emphasizes both strength and agility. It seems to be a battlefield swordsmanship, but it's not bad for one-on-one combat. How does a Mage know such swordsmanship?"
"I'll ask him the next time I see him."
Roland put the magic book in his Backpack, left the princess's manor, and walked to Kaka's manor, just in time to run into Kaka's second brother, Felwood, coming out of the manor with an unhappy expression.
Before he left, he glared at Roland with hatred, but didn't say anything harsh, and simply left in the strange car.
Two minutes later, Roland appeared in Kaka's study.
When Kaka saw him, then looked to his side and didn't find Mijil, his expression suddenly became very surprised. "You really won against Veronica without using offensive spells?"
Roland sat down. "The princess went easy on me."
"I don't believe it." Kaka shook his head, then he smiled and said, "Since you won against Veronica, you actually didn't make that request. She's one of the most beautiful young women among us nobles."
"I'm not that horny." Roland sighed, then asked, "I saw your second brother just now, how's the situation?"
Kaka looked extremely dissatisfied. "He's forcing me to go out of town to take office now, and his attitude is very unfriendly. It's clear that Big Brother is on my side, so what's he in a hurry for? It's not like I'm fighting him over the family property. "
Roland smiled. He didn't want to pay too much attention to other people's family affairs, and he was just asking. He thought about it, leaned his body against the back of the chair, and asked, "Are you confident about turning in the derivative spells to the Association?"
"I've already sent someone to inform the general chairman, and he replied that a review meeting will be held tomorrow morning." At this point, Kaka's expression became visibly excited.
"I wish you success."
Roland was just about to say more blessings, but he suddenly frowned.
