After accepting a disciple, Bennett was not as happy as Mervyn was back then.

Helen was not as excited as Bennett at the beginning to become a disciple of a master, but she still forced a smile. Maybe she had never tried to please someone like this before, and she was so nervous that she even made a snot bubble.

Bennett took out a handkerchief and handed it to Helen, then put his coat on her shoulders.

"The book will be delivered to your room. You can prepare for it in the next few days. I will come to teach you after you and Kenny get married."

Helen pulled the windbreaker on her shoulders, not knowing what she was thinking. She lowered her head and trembled slightly. She sniffed and said, "Yeah."

Bennett didn't want to bother with her anymore, so he turned and left.

The girl couldn't help crying. Bennett paused, but left without looking back.

In the room, Aimee was reading a book by candlelight. Maybe it was because of the lord's good genes, Aimee was still very smart. Now she sometimes becomes Bennett's experimental assistant and helps Bennett a lot.

Looking at Bennett pushing the door open, Aimee wisely did not ask where his coat was. After all, she was a daughter of the nobility, and she could basically guess what the lord would do.

Bennett found the book given to him by the wizard and asked the maid to give it to Helen.

"Did you accept Helen?"

"Ah."

Aimee breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to Bennett's housebound behavior, Aimee was very experienced with the ways of the nobility. She could see that Bennett was in a bad mood. What should you do if a man is in a bad mood?

After a while, Judy, the maid, and Maureen, the experienced maid, entered the room.

I really don’t know how Aimee knows so many tricks, but Bennett is no longer sad tonight.

The new maids outside were squatting and eavesdropping. They were waiting to be summoned by the people inside. After all, they could earn a lot of money just for one time, and they could also walk out of the manor and become civilians. This was a rare opportunity for them who had been sold to the lord's manor since childhood. It was better to go out and find an honest man with the money than to stay in the manor for half their lives.

Bennett woke up early in the morning. Perhaps he had been venting his emotions last night, so Judy and Maureen had no intention of getting up yet. Aimee was more sleepy recently and didn't get up yet either.

Bennett didn't get up. The people on the bed were the ones he would spend his whole life with, so he should be nice to them.

There was a slight noise outside the door. A brave maid pushed the door open and brought breakfast, waking up the entangled bodies on the bed. The maids sent here were all girls. They had never seen such a scene before, and no matter how brave they were, their faces blushed with shame.

He put down the plate shyly, wanted to say something but stammered and ended up saying nothing, then he covered his face and fled the room.

After being interrupted by the maid, everyone lost their sleepiness, except Aimee, who was still curled up in his arms and didn't want to get up.

Maureen is already 24 years old. She is more open than Aimee and Judy, and her figure is quite mature. She taught Aimee all those messy things, so she can always bring different experiences to Bennett.

The brave maid had not left yet. She stamped her feet, mustered up the courage to walk in, and lay down under Maureen with dizzy eyes.

Fallen plum blossoms dot the snow.

In the end, she chose not to stay and left the manor with the money.

Bennett no longer cares about the maids leaving. Everyone has their own choices, and Bennett doesn't want them to be trapped by his side for the rest of their lives.

The sound of the lyre was somewhat quaint, but very clear and melodious. It was just that the person playing the lyre might not be in a very good mood, making this famous lyre very sad, full of emptiness and loneliness. Bennett's thoughts were disturbed, so he put down the experiment in his hand and followed the sound of the lyre to the maple forest.

Tomorrow is the day of the wedding banquet, and Bennett's mood is a little complicated. He has lived two lives. The previous life was ordinary and he had not experienced any joys and sorrows in the world. He had always lived in a daze. This life's experience can be considered rich, but he is still in a daze and does not understand the truth.

Winter comes early and leaves late in Razlan. The leaves have already started to fall at this time. At a glance, this place looks like a red ocean. I picked up a maple leaf and made a crackling sound in my hand. Unfortunately, the piano music in front was too focused and still showed no sign of stopping.

Continuing to look forward, I saw a young girl sitting on a rock playing the piano. Her red hair was scattered on her blue dress, and her back was thin and slender. She was surrounded by the Red Sea, and the suffocating feeling of drifting in the ocean came along with the sound of the piano.

The women of the Field family are worthy of being called mermaids of the sea. As long as they appear, people's attention will be attracted. Bennett looked at the lonely figure from behind. When he first met her, she was so proud. Even though she was alone, she was still an independent and proud crane. Now she is like an abandoned little seal, who can only wait for the judgment of fate alone in the cold wind.

The sound of footsteps behind her finally interrupted the mermaid's sadness. The sound of the piano stopped abruptly. She turned back slowly. The blue in her eyes was like a lightless night sea, empty, desperate, and without any vitality. There was no longer the sparkling water of that night. All that was left in those charming eyes was a desolate dead sea.

This look pierced the boy's chest and brought a chill to his heart.

"You came."

The hoarse voice and the smiling face showed no emotion at all. She couldn't cry anymore and could only show such a crying smile.

"Your piano playing is beautiful."

These words were so bland. Bennett really didn't know how to face Helen like this. Hate her? It was no use. She was just a skeleton. Even if she had some extraordinary means, she would not pose any threat to those who were heartbroken. Besides, in this situation, she might not have had any ambitions in the first place.

"Kenny will be back tomorrow. When he goes to the barracks, I will teach you myself."

"Okay, teacher."

The voice was clear and melodious, just like the lute in her arms, but unfortunately it lacked any emotion, like the echo in a tape recorder.

Bennett had nothing to say. It was a pity for her outstanding talent as a mage. In such a state, how could she persist in working with boring formulas and theorems?

"Then I'll leave first. You must study hard."

"Ah."

Bennett really didn't know how to deal with the current situation. A bland reminder was the last thing he could do.

Of course, Helen's answer was neither salty nor bland.

No longer in the mood to study, Bennett returned to his room. No one knew what Aimee was thinking. She insisted on going back to her room tonight. She felt a little uncomfortable with the empty chair in front of the desk.

After so many years, Bennett's room is full of traces of Aimee. There are all kinds of her accessories in front of the desk, her perfume and white powder in front of the mirror, her dresses in the closet, her armor and weapons on the wall, and even her little toys in the bathroom.

It seemed that all that was left for Bennett were the books in the bookcase, which contained the knight stories of the past. He opened the book about the king's selection of a son-in-law. It was this book that brought the two closer. All this was so lucky.

There is no nostalgia, the lover is right next door.

There is no confusion, the future is worth looking forward to.

The white moonlight shone on Bennett's brown hair. He was the only one in bed tonight and he felt a little uncomfortable. He called the maid and did some waist training. Finally, he no longer felt lonely in the long night.
