Angele glanced at the girl.
"It's been so many years. Finally, the mysterious aura is here." The merman stood up. "Let's go. We still need to clear out the other locations. Take your men back and report to your superiors."
"You're still here?" Angele suddenly lowered his sword and put it back into the sheath. He turned around and looked at the entrance of the yard.
"I think so. I can still remember the aura I sensed when I was a kid 13 years ago. " The merman nodded with a serious expression on his face. "Don't provoke the master … That's my advice."
"The mermen are here? This is going to be troublesome." Angele's brow furrowed. "However, it seems like the city guards didn't do anything after we killed them. Also, from what they said, it seems that they are very respectful of the power of wizards. "
Tia was so excited that she forgot to thank Angele for the time being. She just stood there in a daze.
This world was different from the Earth. All the weapons here were stronger than the ones on the Earth. Swords, bows, and arrows were made of much stronger materials than the ones on the Earth.
The girl quickly responded, "Tia, my name is Tia."
She walked to the counter. There were not many customers in the shop anymore. It was already dinner time, so the number of customers had decreased.
"He was able to escape from the assassin's sneak attack, so he must be a strong person. I also sensed the mysterious aura, "the other man spoke in a low voice. He took off his helmet, revealing a pale blue face. His ears looked like fish fins, his skin was pale blue, and his pupils were white. It was obvious that he was not a human.
There was a row of white counters in the shop, along with seven or eight sets of tables and chairs. The environment was clean and tidy. Next to the counter, two or three employees were busy handing out the wrapped pies to the customers in line.
The girl's body tensed up. She stopped bowing and nodded.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" She quickly stood up and bowed. "Master Angele, I was just curious because I heard the voice …"
The little girl poked her head out from the crack in the door and watched him practice with envy and longing. The girl's face turned pale as she noticed that Angele noticed her.
"Also, provide me with a glass of milk and a glass of fruit juice for every meal."
He had completely mastered the basic version of the Hand of Exhaustion, and the chip's advanced improvement also required a large amount of spiritual power, which was not something he could afford at the moment. Therefore, he could only take things one step at a time.
"Mr. Angele, your pie is here," the girl said politely.
"Sir, what can I do for you?" A shop assistant hurriedly came over and asked.
"Our signature dish is the meat and onion pie, sesame sweet bread, fried bread, and vegetable pie." The little girl reported the names of the dishes in a melodious voice.
The two horses were taken away by a thief, but Angele had brought all the important things with him.
Angele left the pie shop and returned to his own shop after he was done with his daily meals.
Angor wielded his crossguard sword. Forward slash, diagonal slash, and horizontal slash. The three basic moves were repeated over and over again. Due to his fast speed, the blade of the sword made some noise in the air, and the silver marks on the blade formed a triangle.
Angele walked into the shop, turned around, and put down the bow, quiver, and the bag. He then locked the door and left the alley.
"Of course, we have this service."
He was not one of those hypocritical and boring nobles who would hide even a little bit of basic training in swordsmanship. He was not stingy when it came to sincere people, giving them a chance to change their fates.
Angele was still practicing his sword skills. He wiped the sweat off his face and walked to the door.
Twenty minutes later.
"I want a meat and onion pie. How much is it? "Angele asked.
He took out two silver coins from his leather pouch and put them on the girl's hands.
* * *
Angele looked at the girl's terrified expression. Angele slowly walked to the girl.
After all, he could wield a 50-pound greatsword, so he could not give him a 20-pound crossguard sword. It would only limit his fighting ability. As a result, his training would be a lot more difficult.
The golden fried pie was filled with minced meat and green onions. It looked very fresh. Angele put the pie on the table, and a hot aroma filled his nostrils.
The glass door of the pie shop was open, and there were many customers coming in and out. The copper nameplate outside read: Darlene's Pie House.
* * *
She was about ten years old, and her height was average. She was a bit skinny, and she looked malnourished. She was the one who delivered his food these days. This little girl was always very respectful and cautious. She was a very serious girl.
He had earned a lot of money from the gangsters, but now that the meat was stolen, he had to buy some food on the street.
He also needed to buy a bed, furniture, and some daily necessities. He also needed to change his clothes and boots.
In the dark corner behind the shop.
Angele took a piece of pie with his knife and fork and put it into his mouth. The crispy skin, the hot, soft meat, and the fragrance of the minced meat and onions mixed together. It was chewy, fragrant, and not greasy. The saltiness was just right.
A girl walked to Angele as soon as he sat down. She wiped her hands on her white apron. "What would you like to order, Mister?"
Angele inhaled deeply, walked to an empty table, and sat down. The smell of meat and green onions mixed with the oil from the pancake filled the air.
* Dong Dong Dong *
He closed the door and started his daily meditation.
"I need your shop to deliver pie to me at a specific place every day. Money is not a problem. Can I? "Angele asked.
The entrance of the alley was empty, and there was no one around. The footprints of the gangsters were still on the ground.
Angele liked people who were serious. If they could treat everything and everyone seriously, they would be able to achieve great things in this world.
A rhythmic knocking sound came from the door.
"Only two silver coins," Angele said.
If he made a mistake, such as an irregular movement or a wrong posture, it was very likely that in the near future, this mistake would magnify into a fatal weakness. Also, it might cause the wrist joints to be dislocated and fractured. If the posture and movement were inaccurate, it would put a great burden on the joints of the trainer. In severe cases, the trainer might even become disabled.
"You're lucky. I'm in a good mood today. What's your name? "
"You Sea Tribes are most sensitive to mysterious auras. Since you said so, could the person that the Snake of Sand Forest offended be …" The other person did not finish his sentence, but there was a hint of fear and respect in his tone.
"Don't apologize yet. I'm not blaming you. Do you like sword skills?" Angele asked.
He randomly found a pie shop nearby.
The shop was not very crowded, and a few little boys and girls were walking around greeting customers.
Angele put the handle of the cross sword on his back and walked into the shop.
"What do you have here?"
Last time when his wound was infected, he suspected that it might be because of the black needle. Otherwise, with his knight level physique, how could he get sick so easily? However, the A.I. Chip did not have any information on the Black Needle, so there was no clue even if he analyzed it out of thin air. He had to start experimenting with various materials and substances, and conduct a series of experiments such as pH, heat treatment, freezing treatment, and chemical reactions to get first-hand data on the Black Needle.
The shop was connected to a small courtyard. There was a well in the back, and it was spacious enough for one person to walk around alone.
"Yes, master, I was just curious … Please forgive me!" She bowed.
"Alright, pay attention to my movements." Angele did not mind. He returned to the courtyard and started teaching Tia the basics of basic training. Although it was the basics, it was the result of many people's personal training.
Angele finished a large piece of pie and ordered another one. He finished the pie quickly and stood up, feeling like he had not had enough yet.
Everything in the shop was taken away, but Angele did not mind. He sat down with his legs crossed and started meditating. He was a Knight, so he would not be affected if the environment was not too harsh.
After meditating for about an hour, he recreated the Dizziness spell that he had used earlier and stored it into the A.I. Chip. Angele stood up and prepared to leave.
Angele leaned against the wall and listened to the retreating footsteps of the guards. He was thinking about something.
Luckily, he did not lose his noble certificate. Without it, he would not be able to buy any clothes other than gray ones.
"I'll report it to the head of the city guard," Tia said.
Angele stayed in the shop for the next ten days. He ate, slept, and meditated every day. He would walk around the streets and buy some necessities. Then, he would go back and study the information stored in the chip. In addition, he also began to study the secret technique on the sheepskin scroll. It was a secret technique that Angele and the chip could not detect, so it must be something good.
"I'll let you watch me when I'm practicing my swordsmanship." Angele could tell that Tia was eager to learn swordsmanship. That kind of infatuated expression was not formed just once or twice. She had this kind of desire a long time ago.
A ten-year-old girl with a ponytail was standing by the door with a black metal food container in her hands. She was wearing a white polka dot apron that looked dirty. There was a white headband on her head.
Angele stopped thinking and walked down the alleyway. He followed the route he took earlier and returned to the shop quickly.
Soon, this peaceful life was interrupted.
"Put it on the table." Angele turned around and walked to the backyard with his sword. He wanted to continue practicing the basic sword skills.
Ten minutes later, Angele's pie was delivered to him.
Angele looked at her. He finally had a breakthrough in the secret technique of the Snake of Sand Forest, so he was in a good mood today.
