I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

What does this mean? Not focusing on strength, but on beauty? A feeling of being despised came over Sera. She was very angry now. She shouted, "Bennett, do you only have women in your eyes? You lose, you know, you lose."

Bennett looked at Sera's raised eyebrows and shook his head: "You lose."

Sera thought this man was crazy. She was furious and tried to grab Bennett by the collar, but her hand passed through Bennett in front of her. After a brief moment of surprise, she looked in the opposite direction of the venue, where there was also a Bennett who was smiling at her.

There is a ring in his hand that has neither gems nor runes. It is the ring for the defense spell just now. There is a ring without gems, but the runes are still lit (mirror clone). There is another ring that is useless.

Sera sneered, "It's only 200 meters. Do you think you are far away from me?"

With a loud bang, Bennett's hair flew back and Sera appeared in front of him again. The energy in her body had stopped boiling at this time.

Bennett didn't answer her, but picked up a stone and handed it to Sera: "Use this to attack the phantom."

Sera's expression changed slightly, and she took the stone tremblingly and threw it gently at the shadow.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the flames rising into the sky brought up a small mushroom, the powerful shock wave rolled up a violent hurricane, and dust instantly covered the entire training ground.

Bennett's third ring was broken. (RDX, chemical name - cyclotrimethylene trinitramine, chemical engineering majors must know it.)

As the dust settled, Sera's entire body was covered in dust, even her dazzling red hair was covered.

The huge hole on the ground attracted everyone's attention.

"Everyone, go away. There will be no training these few days."

Sera turned and left, and the soldiers stared at her in silence.

Bennett caught up with Sera and wanted to comfort her. Before he reached her side, he heard her trembling voice: "Leave me alone for a while, Bennett, leave me alone for a while."

Looking at Sera who went back into the tent, Bennett suddenly felt a little at a loss.

Bennett did not let Sera win, which was a respect for Sera. He didn't know whether the fight between the two could be considered evenly matched, but it was unexpected that the blow to Sera was so great.

Exhaling the anger in his chest, Bennett returned to his tent. Three gems were scrapped this time and they had to be replaced as soon as possible. Moreover, Bennett had a new idea and the dirt on his body also needed to be cleaned.

The sun outside the tent gradually set, and Bennett finished the dinner sent by the cook and planned to read the spell book for a while, but the sneaky soldiers outside the tent interrupted him.

"What are you doing? Come in."

The soldier timidly entered the tent, took a deep breath, bowed sharply, and shouted with his eyes closed: "Master Mage, please go and see Captain Sera. She has not left the tent and has not eaten a single bite of dinner."

Bennett was really surprised this time. In his impression, Sera was a real warrior. He really thought she was amazing. He didn't understand why such a person would be so devastated by a small failure.

Things have already happened, and Bennett doesn't want to see such a handsome Sera fall into despair, so he goes and takes a look.

"I know, I'm going now."

After leaving the tent, a group of soldiers surrounded Bennett's tent. They looked at Bennett eagerly, watching him walk towards Sera's tent.

Sierra, your heart is not in vain, amazing, Sierra.

Bennett felt the gazes of the crowd and admired the red-haired woman who set the parade ground on fire more and more.

When they got to the tent, Kenny was standing outside.

"You defeated Sera?"

"Yes."

Kenny was silent for a while. He dreamed of defeating Sera, but unfortunately he never could do it. Now this goal was achieved by the person he despised the most. He didn't know how he should feel. He just felt like a mixed bag of emotions.

"I go first."

"Goodbye."

Bennett looked at Kenny's back thoughtfully.

The food was placed outside the door, and the chef cooked her a good meal. She opened the door curtain, and Sera lay on her sleeping bag sideways with her back to the door. Opposite her was the weapons rack.

The dust on her body was not washed off, the dazzling red hair in her memory did not shine anymore, and everything seemed dim in this enclosed tent.

Bennett lit the oil lamp on the small table, put the food outside on the table, picked up the cold sausage and put it into his mouth. The aroma of meat and pepper salt instantly filled his mouth. The chef really put in a lot of effort.

"Is losing to me so unacceptable to you?"

Sera didn't answer, she seemed to be asleep. Bennett walked to her front and followed her line of sight. A broken sword that was almost burned through by runes came into view.

Sera's eyes were empty, and Bennett didn't know what she was thinking.

Picking up the broken sword, I found that the blade was slightly cool and a little greasy, but there was not a trace of rust on it. It was obvious that its owner maintained it regularly.

"When you threw the sword at my feet, I thought you were humiliating me, so I used extra force when carving it. Is there anything special about this sword?"

"No, it's just an ordinary sword."

Sera finally responded.

Bennett looked at her decadent appearance and still couldn't figure out why she was like this.

"Kenny was outside just now."

"Ah."

"He seems to like you."

"I know."

"The soldier you trained just now came to me and asked me to comfort you."

Sera's eyes regained some light, and Bennett struck while the iron was hot.

"They are all worried about you."

"how about you?"

"what?"

"What about you? Are you worried about me?"

Bennett thought Sera was probably crazy, she didn't know what to say anymore.

"I don't understand why you're like this? You shouldn't be like this."

"So what should I be like?"

Bennett put the broken sword back into the weapon rack and thought again of the parade ground that night, when a woman's soul burned the miserable military camp.

"You are a warrior. You should stand in front of the soldiers and lead them. No setbacks can defeat you. You don't care about people's eyes. You save the hopeless soldiers. You are a hero, Sera."

"I'm not a warrior, and I don't want to be a hero."

Bennett's words did not arouse Sera's emotions at all. She still looked unmoved. Bennett was also a little headache, but he had to continue talking.

"You are, Sera, stand up, Sera, you are a Holy Blade Knight, you should not be listless here, you should make achievements on the battlefield, you will..."

"I'm not." Sera suddenly became emotional and rudely interrupted Bennett's chicken soup. She jumped up from the sleeping bag, grabbed Bennett's collar, stared into his eyes, and shouted: "I'm not, Bennett, I have never wanted to save anyone, and I don't want to make achievements."

Bennett was startled by Sera's reaction. He looked into Sera's eyes. There was nothing special about her brown eyes. There was no rippling lake water or the vast and empty sea in them. He could only see Bennett's reflection in them. There was a person in her eyes.

Bennett felt a little scared of Sera now, and he asked sullenly, "Then why did you become a knight?"

Sera lowered her head slightly, tears streaking down her cheeks. Her mood became depressed again, and she choked up and said, "I don't know. I only knew it was an opportunity, an opportunity that no one else could hope for. I regret it, Bennett. I don't want to be a knight."
