Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Ethan agreed to accept the little boy, but did not start teaching immediately, but focused on soul arming.

Originally, he wanted to fly directly to the imperial capital to visit the Borgia family that day.

But the visit between nobles is not to go whenever you want, generally speaking, you have to make an appointment in advance.

Especially for this kind of formal visit involving transactions, it should be so.

For this reason, Ethan asked Sophia to help arrange it, and the arrangement took three days.

Three days later, Ethan flew directly to the main family in the imperial capital, and then changed to the prepared carriage to the territory of the Borgia family.

The Borgia family is a very special family. In addition to the god of magic and the great swordsman, they also produced the prime minister of the cabinet and even the pope.

Yes, the pope of the Holy Light Church.

From this, we can know that this family must have been very glorious, and their territory is also very close to the imperial capital. After leaving the east gate of the imperial capital, it is their family's territory.

However, because the territory is relatively large, it is still a bit far to get to their castle.

When the carriage passed through a ruin, Ethan looked a little familiar.

Finally, I suddenly remembered, isn't this the place where Kyle was summoned?

At that time, I saw a large area of ​​ruins here, so I landed here. I didn't expect that it was the territory of the Borgia family.

Fate is really hard to explain.

"Ah! Oops!"

Ethan suddenly remembered that if this was the territory of the Borgia family, then the person who came that night must also be a wizard of the Borgia family.

There was a little conflict with him at that time, so it wouldn't be bad!

"It shouldn't be, it wasn't a big deal at that time, just a little bad tone, not bad."

"And with so many people in the Borgia family, they shouldn't have such bad luck to meet him!"

Ethan prayed in his heart not to meet that person.

But people are strange. The more you fear something, the more it will come.

When Ethan arrived at the Borgia family castle in a carriage, it was noon.

Under the sunlight, an ancient castle with a strange shape stood on a giant rock, shining brightly.

It is not a castle in the traditional sense, with no spires or tall buildings, but just a group of buildings made of marble.

They are spread out along the undulating rocks and the terrain.

A wide stone slab road with an outer wall winds up, connecting everywhere like a pure white ribbon, with indescribable classical elegance.

From a distance, the whole castle looks like a giant white-backed brown bear, lying on the ground and sleeping.

The winding stone road is the unique pattern on the brown bear.

The starting point of the pattern is at the tip of the brown bear's nose.

At this time, some people were standing there, all dressed up, obviously to welcome Ethan's arrival.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a deep "chuan" wrinkle between his eyebrows, which looked extremely mature and capable.

He was the person Ethan least wanted to see, because he had met him but couldn't even remember his name, which was very rude.

"Sir, the Great Sword Saint, we meet again. I am Turtle. It's an honor to see you again!"

The middle-aged man named Turtle opened the carriage door for Ethan in a gentlemanly manner. When he saw Ethan, he greeted him warmly.

"Sir, Turtle, it's an honor to see you again!" Ethan also replied warmly.

Then, under Turtle's guidance, the two walked up to the castle together.

While walking, Turtle introduced their family's castle to Ethan, and never mentioned their unpleasant past.

This made Ethan feel relieved.

Because this means that the other party is also deliberately avoiding unpleasant things, which is good for the next negotiation.

But the discordant things still happened. Just when the two were about to reach the top of the mountain, several little boys jumped out from behind a rock wall above and blocked everyone's way.

The boys looked only seven or eight years old.

The leader had a magic halo on his wrist. On his palm, a translucent shadow card the size of a playing card was suspended in mid-air, and its color kept changing.

From red to blue, then from blue to white, then from white to red, and so on.

And there was a pattern on each color of card.

One was a sheep, one was a box, and one was a pile of... dog shit!

Obviously, this little boy was a magician and was casting a spell.

"Are you the Thunder Sword Saint of the Lawson family?" The little boy asked with a smile, without any fear in his expression.

Seeing that the little boy was casting a spell, Turte was immediately anxious and shouted, "Benjamin, put away your tricks and your rudeness. This is our guest."

The little boy ignored Turte and asked again, "Are you the Thunder Sword Saint of the Lawson family?"

Turte saw that the little boy ignored him and was about to get angry, but Ethan stopped him and smiled and replied, "I am Ethan!"

"Very good!" The little boy named Benjamin shouted, "We have a tradition in the Borgia family. Guests who come to our castle for the first time must give a welcome gift.

I want to give you one too!"

"Wow!" Ethan smiled, "This is a good tradition. But you don't seem to be giving a gift!"

"This is how we give gifts!" Benjamin laughed, "But I haven't thought about what gift to give you yet.

Please wait a moment, let me think about it!"

As he said, Benjamin pinched his chin with his other hand and thought deeply. After a while:

"Ah... I thought of it. I'll give you a sheep!"

"Okay! Okay! I'll give him a sheep!"

"I think the clown is better!"

"No, let's give him a puppy!"

...

When Benjamin said he wanted to give a sheep, his friends behind him began to express their opinions.

However, Benjamin ignored them and continued to cast the spell. When the floating card turned white, he hit it at Ethan.

At this time, Ethan was wondering what "giving a sheep" meant, and suddenly saw a card flying like a skipping stone, drawing an irregular trajectory.

Although he didn't know if there was any danger, Ethan still used [Heroic Spirit Appearance].

Suddenly, a translucent illusory Ethan appeared out of thin air, and with a "click", he pinched the flying card with only three fingers.

At the moment when the sword spirit pinched the card, a message was transmitted to Ethan's mind.

That was the function information about the white card.

After knowing the function of the card, Ethan couldn't help but smile and said, "Very interesting! But I don't like it, I'll give it back to you!"

As he said that, the sword spirit returned the card to its original path.

The little boy named Benjamin was shocked by the sudden appearance of the phantom. When he saw the card returning to its original path, he was not prepared at all and was hit by the white card.

There was a "bang".

After the card hit Benjamin, a cloud of white smoke exploded.

The white smoke quickly dissipated!

With a "baa" sound!

A sheep appeared inside!

Yes, the one named Benjamin turned into a sheep, and was "baa baa" calling Ethan non-stop.

"Hahaha!" Seeing this scene, Turte couldn't help laughing: "Sir Ethan, what kind of trick is this? It's really shocking!"

Turte was really shocked at this time and couldn't understand what was happening at all.

He just thought that this should be some kind of rule, the rule of returning the enemy's attack.

"This great swordsman is really amazing!" Turte thought secretly in his heart.

And Ethan was thinking at this time:

Is the Borgia family testing him?

Or, are they really just a few children playing?

"It should be the former!"

"What is the purpose?"

With doubts, Ethan followed Turte and slowly walked up to the castle.

As for the little boy, Turte said that he would be punished, but it would not take long, and the transformation magic would end in 5 minutes!
