Garen was slightly stunned as he suddenly felt an unusual sense of dissonance. This sentence reminded him of his life on Earth.
The gloomy aura on his body gradually dissipated because he was distracted.
He straightened his back and looked down at the little boy in front of him.
"Why didn't you find someone else but me?"
The boy finally relaxed because of the release of his aura. His body no longer trembled. He looked up at Garon.
"Because I feel that you … are the best!"
Garon's mood inexplicably improved.
"Your willpower is not bad." He pondered. "If you can pass my test, I can consider accepting you."
He raised his right arm and swung it back.
Chi!
There was a tearing sound in the air.
"Do this a thousand times a day with all your strength. After seven days, if you think you have achieved it, come to this address. "He whispered the address of Su Lin's residence.
The little boy only looked at it once. The action was simple. But it mainly depended on one's persistence.
Garon was actually just testing it casually. Finally, he looked at the little boy who was in a daze.
He was repeating the address in a low voice. At the same time, his body began to repeat the action over and over again.
Soon, Su Lin came out of the shop. He looked at Garon in confusion. Then, he looked at the little boy who was in a daze.
"Let's go back first."
Garon did not explain and followed him to the exit of the alley.
That action was a very simple application of the swinging form. If the little boy could really persevere, then after a week, his right arm would be swollen and itchy because of congestion. There would be some damage to the right shoulder joint.
This would depend on whether he was really obedient and practiced the action with all his strength.
This action did not do him any good. It was just a test. If the time was up and his arm was not damaged, it could only mean that he was really obedient.
Of course, if it was as Garon expected, then he would heal his arm and temporarily accept him as a disciple.
After that, there was no more delay. The two of them went back to the manor in a car.
*****
The tea was poured into the white jade cup, making a slight sound.
Purple petals rushed out of the purple-red tea from time to time, emitting the fragrance of clivia. The purplish red color looked exceptionally pure against the flawless white jade.
"Please."
A purple-haired girl put down the teapot and pointed at the steaming teacup.
"Thank you."
Garon and Su Lin were sitting side by side. The purple-haired girl sitting across the table was Su Lin's sister, Aris.
The girl had inherited the good genes of Su Lin's family. She had a beautiful appearance and a quiet and classical temperament.
Her long purple hair was combed into bangs to the right and tied into a ponytail behind her back. It was neat and tidy without a single curl. She was wearing a black dress with purple floral patterns. Her figure was slender and well-proportioned. She sat on the chair with her legs together and slightly tilted. She was a standard noble lady.
When he picked up the teacup to drink the tea, his movements were also gentle as he brought it to his lips and tasted it lightly.
"I'm surprised that my brother has such a serious friend like Mr. Garon," Aris said with a faint smile.
"Uh …" Garon didn't know how to answer. Clearly, Su Lin's impression in his sister's heart was not shallow.
Sitting aside, Su Lin could only smile awkwardly.
"You don't have to take it to heart." Aris smiled. "Alright, Su Lin. You didn't come here just to introduce me to Mr. Garon, right?"
"Of course not …" Su Lin laughed. "I came here mainly to see you. After not seeing you for so long, even I would miss my beautiful sister."
"Don't run around if you don't have anything to do," Aris said softly. "Stay at home for the time being."
"Actually …" Su Lin paused. "Haven't you always wanted to learn authentic martial arts? Garon is the martial arts coach I hired for you. "
"Martial arts coach?" Aris was a little surprised. "You hired him at a time like this …" She seemed to know something, but immediately stopped talking and began to look at Garon carefully.
When Garon didn't use his Body Hardening Technique, his body was just average. She couldn't see anything special about him. He had already concealed his original aura. This was to be more covert when dealing with Duskdune Shura.
Aris was just an ordinary person who had never practiced martial arts. She couldn't tell at all.
She frowned slightly, but didn't refuse.
"Mr. Garon, may I know where you're working?"
"Nothing much. I'm just an instructor at a martial arts school in a small place," Garon answered casually.
Su Lin quickly answered, "Garon is my good friend. He's someone I trust. I don't trust anyone else to teach you!"
Aris wanted to refuse, but after Su Lin argued for a while, he said that if she didn't let Garon teach her, she wouldn't recognize him as her brother. The consequences would be severe.
She had no choice but to agree to let Garon teach her martial arts.
Garon watched from the side. He felt that the relationship between the two siblings should be reversed. Aris was playing the role of the older sister. She was sensible, polite, and natural. She dealt with things without hesitation and was unusually decisive.
Su Lin left Garon with his sister and ran out. No one knew where he went to fool around.
Garen and Aris were left alone in the tea room, staring at each other. A maid was in charge of refilling the tea.
"Then … Master Garon, I'm already over eighteen this year. Will it affect me if I start practicing martial arts at such an old age?" Aris began to ask the most basic questions.
She really did see Garon as a martial arts teacher. In the casual conversation just now, Garon's martial arts knowledge was barely passable.
"Doing basic training is no problem at any age." Garon answered, "Although you're a little late, you're still young. You have a certain amount of potential. Don't worry too much."
"I've always wanted to practice real martial arts. Where should I start? To be honest, there are many martial arts schools in our area. I've just been hesitant. "Aris sighed. "Martial arts can strengthen the body and train the mind and body. My body has always been too weak. Can you help me design a suitable training program? "
"No problem." Garon nodded. "Since I'm your martial arts teacher, this is what I should do."
"Then I'll have to trouble you. As for the remuneration, how about five thousand a week? "
"That's very high."
Garen understood the intention of sending him off, so he stood up and bid farewell, leaving the room under the guidance of the maid.
Aris picked up the teacup and blew on the steam. She glanced at a pattern on the table.
"Colonel Moen, what's the latest on Duskdune Shura? I can't believe they sent you here personally. "
In the corner of the room, a military officer in black walked out from behind a bookshelf. Behind him came the faint sound of a door closing automatically.
"Duskdune Shura is on the move. According to the latest news from the Intelligence Bureau, they've sent out twenty people. They split into two groups and are heading straight for the manor. Their methods are unknown. Our people can't track them down. " The military officer had a silver scimitar hanging from his waist. It was very long and as wide as a sword. There was no scabbard. It gave off a cold and sharp feeling.
"When are they expected to arrive?" Aris rubbed her temples. She had a headache.
"Probably within this week." Moen replied in a low voice.
"So father sent you here to protect me for a week?"
"Yes." Moen nodded.
"Then father and brother …"
"Don't worry. The commander-in-chief has other arrangements."
Aris nodded.
"As one of the three strongest Special Agent Officers in the Southern Legion, you're here. I reckon that father and two brothers have enough strength to protect them, right? "
"Yes, Colonel Tenari and Colonel Von Igkar are here. Also, the Director, Major General Wellington, is having tea with the commander-in-chief. "Moen replied calmly.
"Even the Director of the Special Agent Force is here? That's right. Father is the Deputy Director. If anything happens to him, it'll be very embarrassing. "
"What a big scene … More than half of the Southern Legion's top soldiers are here." Aris relaxed a little. "Looks like everything is ready. Alright, I have nothing else to do here. You can go. "
"Please be careful." Mu En bowed slightly and gracefully. He then turned around and left through the secret passage.
"Luna."
"Miss?" The only maid in charge of serving tea replied softly.
"The one I'm worried about the most in the manor is Brother Su Lin. Go and stay with him for a while. If he wants to go out, don't let him go."
"Yes, Miss." The maid nodded.
"It's rare that he remembered I like martial arts and went to find a master. I just mentioned it casually, but he remembered it. "Aris smiled and her eyes softened.
"By the way, what do you think of Mr. Garon?"
The maid thought for a while and said, "His basic skills are solid. But we practice military combat skills. We don't know about traditional martial arts. We can only tell that he's not a fraud. Judging from his temperament and age, he should be a core disciple. But Miss, why don't you practice military combat skills with us? This is the real combat skill that has been adapted for killing. "
"Traditional martial arts have their benefits. I practice martial arts not to kill, but to nourish my body. Although traditional martial arts are not practical, it's good for exercising the body. These are not things that military combat skills can provide. Forget it, you can leave now. Also, ask Annie and the others to protect Mr. Garon. He should be practicing traditional martial arts. His combat skills are poor. You guys pay attention to him. It's not good if something happens to the guests brought by my brother. "
"Okay."
*****
Su Lin and Garen, one standing and one sitting, tossed pebbles into the lake from time to time.
"What's the situation now? When we came back, we saw that the security level was higher again. "Garon asked in a low voice.
Su Lin ferociously threw out a cobblestone, making nine ripples on the surface of the water. He immediately smiled with satisfaction.
"My dad's old partners are here. They are the four strongest people in the southern army. The Director of the Special Agent Bureau, Wellington, and the three strongest people selected from hundreds of thousands of soldiers, three Special Agent Colonels. It seems that my dad has made a lot of promises to deal with this trouble. "
"The four strongest people in the southern army? How strong are they? "Garon was sensitive to this kind of news.
