The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 204 Lurking in Steel Mane City 2

As soon as Jenny and Colin opened the door, their brother Barrick ran over.

"Sister, you're back. Hey, who are you?" Barrick looked at Colin warily.

Colin looked at the little half-orc boy in front of him, looking like a madman protecting his sister, and felt a little funny.

"Barrick, don't be rude. This is a guest at home. I even saved my sister once on the way."

"Oh, hello, brother, welcome to our home." Barrick touched his head and said sheepishly.

"Haha, okay, hello, Barrick." Colin patted Barrick on the shoulder and said.

"I'm going to prepare dinner. Uh, you sit with Barrick for a while first." Jenny didn't know what to call Colin.

"My name is Colin. You go and do your work. I will chat with Barrick for a while." Colin said.

"Brother Colin, tell me, how did you save my sister?" Barrick pulled Colin and asked.

"Well, it's nothing. There were just a few pig-headed men pestering your sister. I happened to pass by, so I took care of them."

"Pig-headed man? That must be those guys from Hero. I will definitely deal with them when I grow up. They have been pestering my sister for a long time, but I have never been able to defeat them." Barrick said fiercely.

"Haha, okay, I'm ambitious."

"By the way, Brother Colin, where are you from?"

"Well, I came from a place far, far away. I just happened to travel to Steelmane City. It was a coincidence that I met your sister."

"Oh, then you must be a powerful warrior?"

"It's not that powerful, it's just more powerful than the average person."

"...Well, can you teach me a few tricks? I want to become stronger so that I can protect my sister."

"Uh..." Before Colin could finish speaking, Jenny came out.

"Barrick, don't pester your brother Colin. Others may have other things to do, so I won't have time to teach you."

"Well, it's not impossible to teach Barrick. I don't have anything to do at the moment, but I haven't found a place to live yet." Colin said pretending to be hesitant.

"That's great. Brother Colin, if you don't have a place to live, you can stay at our house. We have a spare room in our house." Barrick happily took Colin's hand and said.

"Barrick, maybe Brother Colin doesn't want to live in our house." Although Jenny was grateful for Colin's help, she was still wary of strangers, so she was not very willing to let Colin stay.

"Well, I'm going to find a place to live when I'm done, but if I agree to teach Barrick, there's no problem." Colin said in a retreat.

"Sister, just agree to let Brother Colin live here. Wouldn't it be very convenient?" Barrick turned around and shook Jenny's arm and said.

Jenny hesitated, looking at Barrick and then at Colin.

In fact, Jenny also wanted Barrick to have a good teacher, but her family didn't have any extra money at all. She only thought about joining the army in two years when Barrick was older. She only wanted to go south and rob a few times, so that her life at home would be natural. It will get better.

"I can pay part of the rent. Anyway, I have to pay if I find another place." Colin took the opportunity to say.

"...Okay, then Brother Colin, you can stay. As for the rent, don't mention it again. Not to mention the fact that you saved me, you also need to pay for teaching Barrick." Jenny thought for a while and finally decided. Agree.

"That won't work, one code equals one code. Don't stop charging rent just because you're grateful to me. I also have to pay for renting other people's houses. You keep this. I'll leave if you want." Colin After handing over a few copper coins, he pretended to be angry and said.

Colin casually killed some orcs he encountered on the way to Steelmane City, so he was not short of orc coins, but it would not be appropriate to give a large amount of coins to Jenny. Paying a few copper coins Just enough to cover the rent.

Jenny saw that there was not much money, so she accepted it without any further refusal.

At this point, Colin was able to successfully live in Jenny's house.

Although the knight's breathing method that Colin has mastered is not a complete set, Colin is not ready to teach it to Barrick. Moreover, the body structures of orcs and humans are also different. Even if he really wants to teach it, he will probably have to improve a lot of content. OK.

Colin was too lazy to do this, so he might as well use some of the physical training methods from his previous life.

In the following days, Colin formulated a series of "training" methods for Barrick, such as running, push-ups, sit-ups, etc. At first, Barrick was a little confused because he had never heard of this method of physical training.

However, after a month of this, Barrick did feel that he was getting stronger. Without Colin's supervision, he started to practice more. In addition, Colin kept buying some carnivorous supplements as food. Barrick It gradually became stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Jenny saw the changes in Barrick's body and was happy in her heart. Colin's performance in the past month also won Jenny's approval. Colin's appearance was not too big, and Jenny gradually became more and more mature. Some other ideas.

Colin did not feel deeply about Jenny's changes, but in normal contact, he felt that Jenny seemed to have become more natural, spoke very gently, and often asked some incomprehensible questions, such as whether she had a family, and whether she had thought about it. Settling in Steelmane City and so on.

But Colin thought more about the hope that by teaching Barrick this "apprentice" and sending him to the recruit camp, he could indirectly grasp the intelligence of the recruit camp and lay a good foundation for future tasks.

Two months later, Barrick had completely adapted to the training method taught by Colin. He felt uncomfortable if he didn't practice for a day, especially when he met Hero's little brother and won one day, which made Barrick very happy.

Barrick's physical training has lasted for three months. Colin thought that it was time to teach him how to use weapons. He was good at the great sword, but the orcs rarely used swords, but more used axes and hammers.

After thinking for a long time, out of some bad taste, Colin bought Barrick an iron rod one day.

Although Colin was not good at using the iron rod and didn't know any stick techniques, he could understand all the methods if he mastered one method. Colin started from holding the rod with one hand and holding the rod with both hands, and taught Barrick the basic routines of the stick techniques such as chopping, swinging, poking, and lifting.

In actual practice, he extended the routines of hanging, collapsing, tapping, sweeping, penetrating, blocking, picking, framing, supporting, clouding, lifting, smashing, and even spoofed a set of stick dancing movements.

As the saying goes, a month of stick, a year of knife, and a lifetime of gun, it doesn't take long to get started with stick techniques, but Colin is not good at stick techniques. Fortunately, under the control of strong mental power, he finally did not make a fool of himself. After two months of stumbling, he finally taught Barrick to get started. From then on, it was up to him to practice on his own.

Looking at the little monkey (Barrick) practicing diligently in the courtyard, Colin felt like Bodhi Patriarch teaching his apprentice, and he almost laughed out loud when he thought of this.
