They all call me master

When Arthur returned to Caesar's Manor with Ms. Anna, it was already before dawn.

Malinda was not asleep.

The lady changed into regular clothes and sat there, flipping through the notes and books left by Geppetto.

Before, I just read it in a hurry and wanted to turn it into my own knowledge. Naturally, it was impossible to finish it like this.

In fact, in order to catch up with Arthur, this woman has reorganized her time. In addition to formulating an additional reading plan for nearly two months, she has also increased her reading time from 3 hours to 4 hours a day.

knowledge is power!

This is the truest maxim on the mystical side.

Not false.

Moreover, Malinda is also reflecting on the route she set before——

There is nothing wrong with developing power, but putting development power above the improvement of one's own strength is putting the cart before the horse.

It's like the Kratos family hidden in South Los.

Not only did they fail to develop their power, but they also hid and disbanded their original power, but when they needed it, they gathered their own team in a short time.

Why?

Because, strength.

Real, completely own strength.

'I think at the beginning, I only established the so-called 'Long Night Ladies Salon' in order to improve my strength and find the materials needed for the ceremony.

But since when will the ‘Long Night Ladies Salon’ become more important than improving my strength?

Why would I make such a stupid mistake? ’

the woman asked herself.

Then, the feeling of satisfaction rising from the bottom of her heart when others looked at her respectfully and with a little fear naturally emerged from her mind.

Such a sense of satisfaction made her lose herself.

Fortunately, she came to her senses.

She knows how to make adjustments and changes.

‘I am 20 years old, am I only 20 years old after all? ’

Malinda laughed at herself in her heart.

Then the lady suddenly became a little unhappy.

because--

Arthur is only 17!

The 17-year-old Arthur acted much more mature than her.

But she, who is 3 years older than Arthur, behaves like a naive little girl.

This made Malinda feel deeply frustrated.

Of course, the frustration in her heart would never affect this lady's idea of ​​'diverting her attention and taking a break'. She was going to discuss the philosophy of life with Arthur, and they started by raising their middle fingers to each other.

However, before the lady could speak, the scene in front of her stunned her——

When Arthur entered the room, Pendragon, who had listened to Arthur's words and stayed overnight, immediately came over and kept rubbing Arthur's trousers.

"Good girl, good girl, well done!"

Arthur did not hesitate to praise him, and took out a small dried fish and handed it to Pendragon.

Gurgling.

Pendragon, who was holding a small dried fish in his mouth, made a happy sound in his stomach.

However, the next moment, the small dried fish in Pendragon's mouth fell to the ground.

because--

Pendragon saw Ms. Anna, slowly climbing up from Arthur's back with a terrifying and ferocious face, and Ms. Anna shrouded in shadow.

Meow meow meow?

Pendragon meowed rapidly, and a rare look of fright appeared on his fat face.

No, Pendragon is timid.

It was really scary when Ms. Anna suddenly crawled out from Arthur's back.

Not to mention cats, if you suddenly see a scary doll climbing up from behind someone else and saying hello to you, you will be so scared that you will pee.

Daju's eyes were as wide as copper bells. Looking at Ms. Anna, the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Arthur immediately 'comforted' his cat.

“Pan, this is ‘Anna’, weren’t you playing next to her before?

Why are you suddenly a stranger today?

Come and say hello to Ms. ‘Anna’. "

Arthur said with a smile.

Pendragon clearly saw the teasing in his master's eyes.

My master did it on purpose!

Immediately, the cat came to this conclusion.

Meow! Meow!

Pendragon shouted repeatedly.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Even if you don't understand cat language, you can still feel that Pendragon's scolding is unpleasant.

And Arthur laughed.

In order to rush back to Caesar's Manor before dawn, Arthur ran with all his strength and even used the "cat hole" technique of [Silent Continuous Treading].

Fast is fast.

But 'Anna' who was originally sitting on Arthur's shoulders turned to lie on his back.

Only in this way can you avoid being blown to the ground by the oncoming wind.

Afterwards, Ms. ‘Anna’ climbed on top of Arthur’s shoulders?

Purely unexpected!

Well, it was an accident!

How could Arthur scare his own kitten?

The young 'psychic medium' bent down and picked up Pendragon.

"Trial!

Pan, this is your trial to become the 'Cat Warrior'!

Only in this way can we pull out the sword from the stone and ascend to the top and become the king! "

Arthur opened his eyes and talked nonsense, while Pendragon looked at his master in confusion.

Warrior Trial?

Climb to the top and become king?

And what is the Sword in the Stone?

Pendragon was filled with doubts.

Arthur laughed again from the bottom of his heart.

Believe it! It believed it!

Pan actually believed it!

The satisfaction of deceiving the cat made Arthur feel more relaxed and happy - everyone has a way to relieve stress, some people drink and sing, and some take baths in saunas.

Arthur is different.

Him, petting the cat.

Maybe the way of petting is a little different, but it’s really just petting the cat, and there’s no harm in it.

As for the warrior trials, reaching the top and becoming king?

Isn't it up to him to say it?

And the sword in the stone?

At worst, if I get a chance in the future, I'll find Pendragon a concrete piece with steel bars inserted into it to play with.

If nothing else works, you can still make a long sword with a special scabbard.

Anyway, there are many ways.

The most important thing is: he is happy now.

However, immediately, Arthur found Malinda looking at Ms. Anna in astonishment.

Arthur noticed.

Ms. ‘Anna’ had already noticed it.

Malinda had stared at her unblinkingly since she appeared in this room.

Facing the lady's gaze, 'Anna' jumped off Arthur's shoulders and saluted gracefully——

"Ms. Caesar, first time meeting you, I am Anna Kratos."

Listening to such greetings and self-introductions, Malinda became more and more confused.

The lady even forgot to return the gift and just looked at Arthur blankly.

"Have you learned [Soul Charging]?"

The lady's words were filled with disbelief.

"certainly.

You’ll learn it after watching it once.

Nothing difficult. "

Arthur said in a calm tone, as if he was saying that the eggs for breakfast should be dipped in soy sauce.

However, Malinda felt a storm in her heart.

The woman knew Arthur was gifted.

But she didn’t believe Arthur’s previous words to ‘Glaster’, ‘You’ll know it after just one look’. She thought this was Arthur’s plan to attack his heart.

But now?

It's true!

Malinda felt short of breath.

Especially when she found out that Ms. Anna was unhappy because she didn't respond in time, she was even more shocked in her heart.

‘This is not the original [Soul Charge]!

This is Arthur’s optimized [Soul Charge]! ’

Malinda exclaimed in her heart.

Malinda has also read Geppetto's notes. Of course she knows what real [Soul Charging] looks like.

'real!

Everything is true!

Arthur really knows swordsmanship and secret arts at a glance, and he can also innovate new optimizations!

Such a talent...

What a monster! ’

Thinking in her heart, Malinda regained her composure.

The lady first bowed to Ms. Anna, and then said to Arthur——

"Don't follow me. I'm in a bad mood and need to find something sweet."

"Bring me some egg tarts."

Arthur shouted immediately.

boom!

What Arthur responded to was the sound of a heavy door closing.

‘Is it really exciting?

No, my Malinda won't be so fragile, right? ’

While Arthur was enjoying himself in his heart, he looked in the direction of the door again.

The next moment, there was a knock on the door——

Boom, boom!
