NOVEL NEXT Chapter 85: Chapter 85
Just as Alan was about to speak to pull himself out of the fire of war that suddenly burned upon him, Rudy's second half of the sentence rang out.
"You have the talent to learn the secret of 'flow' on the carriage? Do you think Alan learned the secret of 'flow' in just a blink of an eye? Talent? I think you don't understand the meaning of talent at all? Let me show you what talent is!"
Rudy suddenly jumped up, and in Sylphy's sight, he grabbed Alan's hand! In front of the latter's widened reddish-brown pupils, he pulled it in front of his face.
"Did you see that? The calluses on Alan's hands! What is talent? Talent is just a moment of inspiration, but if you want to keep that moment of inspiration, you need to work hard day and night! If you don't work hard, how can you turn your 'talent' into reality?"
Alice frowned, raised her fiery red eyebrows, and turned to look at Gileno.
The latter glanced at Alan's hand and nodded in agreement.
"really."
Alice bent her knees and jumped off Gileno's legs, and came in front of Rudy in two steps.
"Let me see! Hmm. It is indeed very thick, almost as thick as Gileno's hand."
"Right?"
"Yeah, it seems you're not completely useless!"
".Yeah. Huh?"
"What? I'm praising you, are you unhappy?"
"Is there anyone you praise so much?"
Sylphy was a little dazed and turned to look at Alan's face.
The latter's face twitched violently, but he showed no obvious resistance.
Sylphy blinked.
"Really? I'll take a look too."
Then, under Alan's astonished gaze, he grabbed his other hand, placed it on his knee and looked at it carefully.
Just as several people were holding Allen's hands and looking at them, Rudy suddenly reacted. He looked at Alice, who was suddenly "reconciled" with him and looking at Allen's hand, in some confusion, and was a little bewildered.
Hmm? How did it become that Alice and I were looking at Alan's hand together?
Then they realized someone was watching them.
Turn your head.
It's Gilenu.
He blinked, looked up and down at Gileno's burly figure, swallowed silently, put down Alan's hand, and spoke to Gileno carefully.
"You are Miss Gillenu, right? Nice to meet you. Um, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Rudius Greylat."
Alice turned to look at Gileno, who nodded.
"I know, son of Paul, just call me Gileno."
"Okay, Gilenu."
At this time, Alice was listening to the conversation between the two, but she realized that she seemed to have never formally introduced herself to Allen. Then she turned her head to look at Allen, crossed her arms and spoke.
It was similar to what Gileno said, but the tone was completely different.
"My name is Alice Boreas Greyrat, and I allow you to call me Alice!"
Alan looked at Alice's arrogant look.
"Okay, Alice."
Alice nodded with satisfaction.
"What's your name?"
"Alan."
"Of course I know it's Alan. Alan? What's the last name?"
Originally, Rudy wanted to say something to Gileno, but after hearing this, he immediately turned to look at Allen, while Gileno and Sylphy also turned their eyes to him at the same time.
Alan just smiled.
"No surnames. Civilians in the Kingdom of Asura don't have surnames, only first names."
"Oh, is that so?"
Rudy and Sylphy looked at each other, then he turned to look at Gileno and continued the previous topic.
"I heard that you were a member of my father and mother's adventurer team?"
"yes."
"We left in a hurry, and my father didn't see you, so he pulled me aside and asked me to tell you something."
At this point Rudy hesitated for a moment and coughed lightly.
"He said that Alan is his disciple, and asked you not to have any other unreasonable expectations. He just lent it to you temporarily for two days."
The carriage was silent for a moment.
Then, as expected, the sound of Ping Zong drawing his sword was heard, and Alan and Rudy's expressions showed different meanings of horror.
The former quickly raised his leg and kicked Rudy.
Rudy answered immediately.
"It was just a joke, he has another sentence after that!"
The blade is sheathed.
"explain."
"Just kidding. I'm sure you'll be drawing your sword now, right? Alan is a family member that both Senis and I value. Please teach him swordsmanship carefully. He is very talented, not just in the Water God Style. Please also take care of Rudy for us. Please."
Alan was stunned when he heard this, and felt a little moved.
Gileno looked at Allen's face, was silent for a moment, and suddenly spoke, but he changed the subject and talked about something else.
"Speaking of the Water God School, I do know a genius with extraordinary talent."
Alan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Gilenu spoke up.
"In the Mizukami-ryu main dojo, there is also a swordsman who was promoted to the position of Water Saint at a young age, and was also granted the title as an exception."
Alan blinked.
"The main dojo? Is that girl Isaruti? I didn't expect she's already a water saint, but it's about time, and she does have a good talent for swordsmanship."
Thinking of this, Alan nodded and was about to say something.
But before he could say anything, Alice turned and looked at Alan.
"Alan, what's the title?"
"Well, you can understand it as the characteristics of this swordsman's swordsmanship, which can also be regarded as the recognition of swordsmen. Generally speaking, it is passed on by word of mouth, and only a very few will be awarded the title by the dojo."
"What is your title?"
"Uh, cough, I didn't."
Alice's eyes widened and she turned sharply to look at Gileno.
"What? Could this person be stronger than Alan?"
Gilenu was silent for a moment.
"Perhaps."
"Huh? What's that guy's title? What's his name? Let him compete with Alan to see who is stronger. If Alan is stronger, let him give up the title!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the corners of Alan's mouth twitched. Looking at Alice's angry expression, he didn't know what to say to the young lady.
At this moment, Gileno's voice rang out.
"The Water God Ryu Main Dojo."
"Allan Boreas Greyrat."
"Title: Rock."
The car was quiet, and Sylphy and Rudy turned their heads to look at Alan.
Alice was a little confused.
"Boreas Allen?"
Gileno glanced at Alice.
"King Boreas, the fourth son of the next head of the family, James, is also your distant cousin."
The eldest lady looked a little confused.
"Why Alan?"
She looked up at Alan.
The latter had turned his head at some point and was leaning against the window sill with his chin in his hand, looking out of the carriage window with some boredom.
Outside the car window, in the morning light.
The gate of Roya City is already within reach.
The morning breeze carried the voices without any emotion.
Then it fell into the carriage.
"What a coincidence. You have the same name as me."
"Thank you."

Chapter 110: Roya, Sauros, the ripples of the assassination incident [4k]
The city of Roya as a whole is very much like a fortress.
No, it's not just Roya. In the northern part of the Asura Kingdom, even in the royal capital, the entire city is completely in the fortress style of the war preparation period. This is the "trace" left by the war between humans and demons long ago.
Four hundred years ago, the demons chose to invade from the north of the central continent, and the Kingdom of Asura was the first barrier for the human race during the war.
But today, although the architectural style has been preserved, the former military barrier has become a transportation hub city with a commodity economy at its core.
Even in the early morning at nine in the morning.
There are still people coming and going at the city gate, and it is very lively.
Three carriages slowly passed through the city gate. The armored soldiers guarding outside the city let them pass simply because they were carriages from the lord's mansion, and did not stop them for inspection.
It is a peaceful era now, and no one would dare to do such bizarre things as attacking and killing nobles or pretending to be someone else to go to a town.
"What?! Is that guy from the capital as tall as Alan? Are the calluses on his hands as thick as Alan's?"
This was Alice's voice, the rising ending note "jumping" out along the window sill of the carriage.
"That's about right."
Gilenu's voice was as steady as usual, and she said this as if she was stating a fact.
"Huh? Are you kidding me, Gileno?"
"No."
"You're lying to me!"
"It's true, Alice."
"Huh? Sylphy, do you think so too? Didn't you say that Eren is the strongest?"
"."
Ever since Alice heard that there was a cousin in the capital, who even had the same name as Allen and had similar swordsmanship skills, she had been calling this relative "guy".
And in his speech, he always wanted to let Gilenu praise Alan, who was beside him, to belittle his "cousin" in the royal capital.
This is so real.
Also very rabid.
