Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Chapter 3 Contract
When Lando came to the blacksmith room to prepare for today's work, he was told that he didn't need to come in the future. You must know that everyone in the castle needs to work except Baron Moria's wife and children, otherwise there would be no Board and lodging, now his salary has been improved a lot, of course, in name, it is a reward for his hard training.

"I really envy you, Lando, you don't have to work so hard in the future, ah~" the blacksmith apprentice Meier said to Lando enviously.

"What's the matter, Meier, you don't feel well?" Meier is his good friend in the blacksmith room. He was weak when he first came here, and Meier helped him a lot.

"It's okay, it's just a little cold." Meier said nonchalantly.

"Catch a cold? You'd better be careful, don't let the condition worsen." Lando thought of his mother in memory. She also had a cold and thought it was just a minor illness and ignored it. As a result, her condition worsened for several days and finally passed away directly.

Seeing that Meier still didn't care too much, before Ran Duoduo could say anything, a big hand slapped Meier's head heavily: "Hmph~, as a blacksmith, you actually catch a cold? Your physique is too bad. It seems that from today onwards, the amount of your wrought iron will be doubled."

"No, Daddy Riley~"

Seeing the laughter in front of him, Lando was a little envious. Although Meier was an orphan, Uncle Riley raised him as his own son. He had never felt this kind of emotion between father and son, whether it was in his previous life or this life.

Back in his room, he found that there was no other change except that he didn't need to work. He took out the strengthening potion, and he was going to drink it directly and drop the bag to be safe.

"Oh~! It's so bad to drink, what kind of broken alchemy master, I don't know how to put some syrup in it."

Resisting the urge to spit it out, he poured all the medicine in his hand into his stomach.

Feeling the heat spreading all over his body, Lando practiced the White Lion Fighting Technique in a small room. After practicing for this period of time, he was already very familiar with the White Lion Fighting Technique. Skilled practice, but I still don't have a clue.

While tossing and turning, he didn't touch anything in the room at all. After listening carefully, there was a faint roar of a lion.

The next morning, when Lando came to the training ground, everyone looked at him with envy and awe, and even Kak was a little more cautious when facing him.

Lando's past life experience allowed Lando to easily dispel the barriers with a few words, and soon everyone surrounded him and asked about everything, sometimes asking about swordsmanship, sometimes asking about cultivation methods, even Mal, who was defeated by him yesterday, joined him Coming over, Kaker also received a lot of attention, with a complacent look.

Lando really couldn't understand that the protagonists of many novels in the previous life were always seeking hatred and being picked on in various ways. With the IQ of a normal adult, they couldn't beat a group of little kids?

Mike Knight saw this scene when he entered the training ground. He coldly swept over the crowd, and the teenagers immediately scattered.

"Lando, come with me."

When the two came to a secluded corner, Mike Knight said straight to the point: "You have reached the peak of the apprentice knight, and you are qualified to sprint to the official knight. There are some things you should know."

Lando made a respectful hearing.

"You now have two options. One is to sign a contract with the Baron, who will provide you with a secret medicine and corresponding advanced swordsmanship that will help you advance to a formal knight; The 'Winter Hunt' operation, hunt enough barbarians, obtain meritorious service, and exchange for the same thing."

"What is 'Winter Hunt'?"

"Our territory is located at the border, and there are many barbarians nearby. Whenever winter approaches, those small barbarian tribes will attack the villages, burn, kill and loot them without enough food to survive the winter. Therefore, the lords will organize people to sweep up the barbarian tribes at this time every year. Over time, it became the current 'Winter Hunt' operation. This year's 'Winter Hunt' is three months later."

"I need to think about it."

"Okay." Mike nodded, but still couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, Lord Baron won't embarrass you with harsh contracts."

There are two main issues that confuse Lando. One is the contract. He doesn't know whether the so-called contract is on paper or has magical effects. The second is simple. He wants to participate in the 'Winter Hunt' , or in other words, he wants to kill some intelligent creatures to see if he can get the soul essence.

"I hope not, otherwise I don't know what I will look like in the end." If killing intelligent creatures, or killing people can get soul essence, Lando is not sure about his inner choice.

In the evening, Lando came to Carter's study. He was the only one who could come to study at this time. The rest didn't want to come to study, but Carter told them not to come after teaching for a while.

"Mr. Carter, I have encountered some problems recently, can I ask you for advice?" After the teaching was over, Lando did not leave as usual, but hesitated to say this to Carter.

"Oh, let's hear it." Carter put down the book in his hand, and looked at Lando gently.

Then Lando told Carter about the choice he was about to face, except that he didn't say that he wanted to kill someone.

"I probably understand. In fact, you don't have to worry about the contract at all. The baron is doing this just as an insurance policy. Many people know your identity. The contract is nothing more than establishing the relationship between the monarch and his subjects, and it will not restrict you. ; On the contrary, no matter what you think, not signing will make it difficult for you to move forward."

"The relationship between the monarch and his ministers? If you don't sign, it will be difficult to move forward?" Lando suddenly understood what Carter meant when he was not a real boy.

Baron Moria now has two sons and a daughter. The eldest son was determined to be the successor early on, and he is now studying with his superior nobleman. The second son is studying at the Royal Academy of the Royal Capital. The youngest daughter has been with the baroness all the time.

Although Lando is an illegitimate child, he still has the right to inherit under certain circumstances when he restores his own surname. However, if he changes his status to a retainer after the title of monarch and subject is established, it means that he gives up his own right of inheritance.

At the same time, as Carter said, if he did not sign the contract for whatever reason, the supporters of the Baroness and the eldest son would not make him feel better.

After thinking about this, Lando has already decided to sign the contract.

"Thank you, Mr. Carter, your teaching has benefited me a lot."

Looking at the back of Lando leaving, Carter said to himself: "Do you have a photographic memory? Interesting, I didn't expect to meet talented children in such a small place. It's a pity that I didn't bring a tester, so I don't know the specific qualifications. That's all. , anyway, there is still half a year, let’s talk about it then.”
