Chapter 16

The midday sun was so dazzling that Hardy had to squint his eyes.

The two figures walked slowly on the dirt road, seeing their figures gradually receding, getting smaller and even blurred, Hardy felt a little sad in his heart.

Obviously he is just a fake, but he can also feel the feelings of these two people for him.

Especially Ryan, who really treats himself as a brother.

After the figures of the two disappeared completely, Hardy walked home slowly.

Back in the manor, he found that Sophie had also returned.

This woman looked more and more moisturized, her skin was white and rosy, as smooth and delicate as a baby.

"Where did you go just now?" Hardy asked curiously, "I'm not going to see Ryan off either!"

But Sophie shook her head and said, "No need, it's just sad for a mother to send her child to travel thousands of miles. It's your business, which has to be put on the agenda!"

Hardy was a little puzzled: "You mean?"

"Didn't you get the status of knight?" Sophie walked to Hadi and sat down: "When will you take over your territory!"

"You actually know about this?"

"It's not a secret thing. Anyone who cares about you can find out."

"Then you should also know that I was ambushed by Edward before, and I brought Ryan over to help before I resolved the matter." Hardy said with a smile: "I am very afraid of death, and those mountain people are actually quite troublesome. I don't want to deal with them without enough backup forces."

Sophie covered her mouth and laughed straight: "You are too cautious."

She is very clear that Hardy's fighting power is actually very strong.

In a normal one-on-one situation, if Sophie didn't use the succubus' natal magic and wanted to use purely physical attacks to deal with him, it would take a lot of effort to win.

If Hardy becomes the Nightmare Knight again, his strength will skyrocket.

Of course, the current Hardy is still a long way from Sophie's level, but it should be enough to deal with those mountain people.

"It's better to be more cautious." Hardy smiled.

"Then I can't help you!" Sophie sighed.

Hardy showed a questioning expression.

"I'm going to go back to the Demon Realm. If it's quick, I'll be back in two months, if it's slow, it'll take about half a year." Sophie put her head on Hardy's shoulder, her tone was soft, as if she was afraid that the man would get angry: "Don't tell Ryan about this in the future."

Hardy turned his head and asked in surprise, "Why?"

Although he and Sophie developed a little fast, Hardy is not the kind of ruthless person, he treats each other as his own woman.

But the other party said that she was going back to the Demon Race.

Just when she had some feelings, she was poured cold water on her.

Sophie whispered, "I have a lot of assets in the Demon Realm, and I have to go and fetch them for you."

"I do not need."

"But I also need it." Sophie's voice was full of sweetness: "Don't look at me as poor in the human world, but in the demon world, there are a lot of coins and good things."

In fact, Linde's family is not poor anymore, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing, but they don't have as much money as Hardy's family, and their status is not as high as Karina's family.

Hardy clicked his tongue: "Do you really want to go back?"

Sophie nodded.

"We haven't been together for a few days." Hardy sighed: "If we are separated for a long time, it will probably have a great impact on our relationship."

Sophie smiled, trembling: "Honey, you may be indifferent to me, but I won't. Besides, you underestimate the succubus too much. I have a thousand ways to win your heart back from others."

After speaking, she kissed Hardy's face.

"Just wait for me at home obediently. If you encounter something you can't handle, just hide first, and we'll talk about everything when I come back, okay?"

Sophie left Hardy's house, walking quickly and gracefully, not even forgetting to blow a kiss.

Standing on the balcony on the second floor, quietly watching Sophie leave, Hardy actually knew that the other party must have something unspeakable to hide before leaving without warning.

Things that even a powerful succubus can't control are not things that he, a young eagle who has just started to learn to 'fly', can intervene.

Can only wait for the other party to come back.

In the days that followed, Hardy lived a remarkably healthy life.

Practice the fire and phoenix swordsmanship in the morning, feel the basic theory of magic in the afternoon, and become a nightmare knight in the evening, running in the mountains and forests led by Hexi to exercise the knight and magic control ability.

Among them, the fire and phoenix sword technique is really powerful. After only a few mornings of exercise, Hardy felt his body was a little lighter.

If you continue to exercise, you will soon be able to improve your physique.

But Sophie also said that although everyone can practice the Fire Phoenix swordsmanship, only members of the royal family of the Demon Realm can practice it to the highest level.

Also includes the Linde family.

But even so, the Fire Phoenix swordsmanship is still an extremely useful swordsmanship for ordinary people.

Then, Jack came back.

Three people were brought to the manor.

A teenager who looks a bit like Jack, but his body is thin and he doesn't seem to have enough to eat.

When he saw Hardy, he bent over and whispered, "Link is very happy to see Master, and from today onwards, I will do my best to serve Master."

Hardy nodded to the boy, then looked at the other two.

Both of them were wearing old leather armor, and their faces were full of vicissitudes, with a taste of half-life weather,

One of them took a step forward, bent over and saluted, "Nice to meet you, employer. I'm Green, a spearman."

The other is a strong man with a one-handed sword on his belt and a shield behind his back.

This brawny man has dark skin, but he is definitely not a gray-skinned orc. He grinned and said, "Employer, I am Pero, the shield warrior. How much do you plan to pay us?"

Hardy scanned the two mercenaries for a while, and then asked, "Do you two know each other?"

"of course."

The spearman's expression was a bit haughty: "I heard from your steward that you, the employer, already have the status of a knight, so we are willing to follow you."

Most of the mercenaries look down on ordinary people, and ordinary wealthy businessmen are not in their eyes, but they bow their knees to nobles.

Hardy already understood that if the two hadn't heard the housekeeper tell them about their new identities, they would not have accepted the employment.

Moreover, these two people looked a little bit rebellious.

"How much?" Hardy waved his right hand, and a dark long sword appeared in his palm: "Let's try it out and find out."

Seeing Hardy's magical sword, the expressions of the two mercenaries were a little dignified.

Spearman Green pulled his messy beard on his chin and said, "Employer, are you also a professional? How long has it been since you changed jobs?"

"Competition is competition, how long do you care about me?"

Hardy grinned grimly, and bullied him.

The spearman hastily responded.

After just a few moves, he was forced back by Hardy.

Seeing this, the shield warrior hurriedly shouted: "It's actually a sneak attack, I'm here to help."

Then Hardy waved his left hand at him, and a small tornado suddenly appeared, rolling up the shield warrior for several meters and throwing it aside.

Then, taking advantage of the gunman's inattention, he rushed up, sold a feint, and then kicked him back again and again, with an ugly face.

It's not that I feel insulted, but the spearman's stomach hurts badly.

"It's okay, it's enough to train ordinary soldiers."
