Awakening from Nicholas's deep memories, Johnsan is deep in thought.
As far as I can remember, Nicholas's parents were good people, gentle and kind, full of love for the common people, and they lived a peaceful and quiet life, without any rivalry, and the family loved each other and enjoyed each other's company. But these, too, became their Achilles' heel, and ultimately led to trouble.
A nobleman, especially one with a hereditary title, such qualities are not to be expected.
Feeling the sudden addition to his emotions of thoughts of Viscount Crowell and Lady Linda, and that faint feeling of love, Johnsan didn't have to think about it to know it was left to him by the dead Nicholas.
"Hey." Johnsan let out a long sigh.
Nicholas's parents must be in mourning, it is not likely that at this time, under the deliberate arrangement of certain people, they even handed over their knighthoods, life and death may not be possible. Even if one wanted to do something for Nicholas, with one's current strength, there was no possibility at all.
Strength determines everything, all this in this world of power is more and more manifest.
"It's better to practice your summoning skills and hatch some alien eggs when you can control them before anything else. What those people owe you, after I have the strength, I will definitely help you get it back."
Johnsan collects his thoughts and goes back into meditation in the same position he was in earlier.
Johnsan proved that he was not a genius, during the day he was busy in the tavern and occasionally went to flirt with Sally, the rest of Johnsan's time was spent on summoning art practice, a month down the line, but he couldn't even step over the threshold of a beginner summoner.
It was like a person who clearly saw a mountain of gold in front of him, but had a hard time finding a way in. Without strong spiritual power, Johnsan would never dare to hatch those alien eggs.
Johnsan was extremely depressed, he even suspected that the summoning art manual was fake, the old beggar had contracted a disease and died half a month ago, and there was no way for him to confirm it. Later on, he looked for a few summoning art manuals that are now common in the continent to compare, and realized that his own book described more precisely than the current summoning art manuals, and it didn't look like a fake at all.
Mental power was too weak, and summoning arts cultivation was so slow, not to mention magic. After thinking about his special blood, Johnsan thought that perhaps going to cultivate fighting spirit would be a good choice.
What kind of people are on the Locomotive town, Johnsan used five hundred bunches of spicy hot pot to easily exchange back a secret manual of inflammatory fighting qi, said that it is a secret manual, but in fact, it is also an ordinary manual of fighting qi cultivation.
"Being greedy and chewing too much is not good enough." Fate persuaded bitterly, "It's only been a month or so of cultivation, what's your hurry, if you learn fighting qi instead, won't your so much mental space go to waste."
Fate said this for his own selfish reasons, he felt that it was too difficult for him to achieve anything in magic in his life. The cultivation and growth of a magician is absolutely proportional to the gold coins. There was absolutely no hope for himself, but after running into Johnsan, Fate felt that his spring had come.
Fate had grown up in a summoner's family, and he knew exactly what kind of achievements a summoner would have in the future if he could have a spirit space as large as Johnsan's, not to mention having an innate summoning beast that even the summoner himself felt menacing and terrifying. Such a summoner definitely had the potential to become a Saint Domain powerhouse, and thinking that he could possibly become a magic squire of a Saint Domain powerhouse made Fate feel incredibly excited.
Johnsan naturally couldn't guess what was going on in Fate's mind, and said in a depressed voice, "I'm just trying it out, and I didn't say that I'm going to give up my Summoning Technique training."
Ignoring Fate's nagging from the sidelines, Johnsan began to cultivate his fighting spirit again.
Compared to spiritual power cultivation, fighting qi cultivation was much more onerous. Following what was described in the manual of fighting qi, Johnsan began the most basic body strengthening training.
One hundred push-ups a day, three hundred squat jumps, three thousand meters of round trip running and so on, Johnsan began to strengthen his body by following some of the methods of physical exercise in his previous life.
Fateh was in a hurry, he couldn't persuade Johnsan, he ran to Anna again, quoted the arguments, Fateh's mouth was dry, but in return, Anna gave him a blank stare.
"Lao mama live so old, has never seen like Johnsan so smart and capable and also have the main opinion of the child, he does what is right. On the contrary, you, you say you are this age, still junior magician, what is the prospect, you say you will be ... in the future."
Fate choked and rolled her eyes, falling away before Anna could continue.
A month or so quickly passed again, and the Locomotive town remained the same, with people coming and leaving constantly. A certain dusk, Fate very no wizard style with a bowl squatting in front of the store, watched with great interest a group of new adventurers and the town of a small mercenary group team in the street to fight cursing, in the heart of the two groups of people flirting to start a fight Fate suddenly heard Johnsan's excited voice.
"I feel it, a hot stream in my stomach, it's so nice."
Fate sighed in his heart and turned his head, "That's the fire fighting qi that's being formed, maybe it won't take a few days for you to break through the junior warrior rank. Listen to me, you'd better go to cultivate spiritual power, the future must ..."
Johnsan was so excited that he didn't care to listen to Fate's persuasion, and ran back to the house in a huff, flipping out that manual of fighting qi, following the diagrams on it, and sitting on the floor to try to control the mass of hot qi running in his body.
Before he could think of how to run it, suddenly, the fighting qi seemed like a river breaking its banks as it suddenly leapt out of his stomach and instantly flowed through his limbs and bones. After running dozens of times in a row, when that hot stream only returned to his belly, Johnsan felt that the original fist-sized hot stream had actually become several times thicker.
He stood up and touched his body, it was still skinny and not much had changed except for some extra muscles from working out these days.Johnsan had the intention to try it out, his foot slammed on the floor and his body lifted upwards, just to see how high he could jump.
Fate can never forget that scene, just when the street two groups of people more and more fierce noise, see will fight, boom a loud sound, Anna tavern roof suddenly broke a big hole, a figure violently from the roof rushed out, the speed is too fast can not see clothing and face, see that the person holding a purple fighting spirit rushed up dozens of meters high.
"Battlemaster!"
The people on the street collectively drew in a breath of cold air, and the scene that ensued made them stretch their necks and their eyes roll off the floor.
The figure wrapped in purple fighting qi wailed like a golden-eyed eagle eagle that had been struck, falling from the broken hole in the roof in an unsightly position, smashing up a cloud of dust.
Fate threw down his bowl and rushed in towards the yard, Anna's growling and thunderous curses came up from the basement where the meat dishes were laid out, and Fate was so surprised to see a large hole smashed in the floor that he was busy running towards the basement.
Johnsan stood in the basement, hunched over and piling on a fawning smile, constantly making amends, his face and body covered in dust.
"Aunt Anna, it's my fault, I'll fix it. Yes, fix it all, the roof and the basement, and the money for the work will come out of my paycheck."
Anna stuck her hand in her waist, with a furious look on her face, and her finger was about to poke Johnsan's face, saying, "Johnsan ah, how can you mess up like this, my house is ..."
"You don't say." Johnsan nodded and said, "I have ten gold coins of my own saved up, I'll pay you for it all, I won't keep a penny."
Even a pig could see who the culprit was, Fate couldn't care less about being appalled and rushed over to him, drinking, "What are you doing? Do you know who you are talking to? Seeing what just happened, purple fighting qi ah, he's a battle master now."
"Snap."
Fate only felt a blackout before his eyes, and then he received a heavy slap on his face, and before he could clear his eyes, he felt a tearing pain in his ear.
Anna twisted his ear and sneered, "It's not your turn to interrupt when my mother speaks. So what if he's a War Master, he's still Johnsan here."
"Auntie Anna, let go of him, he was blind for a moment, you're a grown up, what are you doing with him." Johnsan saw that Fate was sweating in pain and didn't dare to fight back, so he was busy coming up to intercede.
Anna grunted, letting go of Fate and added, "Remember, it was an outsider who never met who made it." At that moment she heard a noise coming from above and she hurried upwards.
"Savage woman, how can you stand her." Fate rubbed his ears and whispered curses under his breath.
"That's what Auntie Anna is like, she's just a tough talker, and she's the one who solves all the problems I get into." Johnsan said with a smile. Just now, in mid-air, he saw several human figures quickly leaping towards this side from all sides of the town.
"What's going on?" Fate looked at Johnsan nervously and said, "How did you become a Battlemaster?"
"I don't know." Johnsan said honestly, "I tried channeling and controlling the Dou Qi like the book said, who knew it would suddenly be like this."
Fate was almost mad with anxiety, saying, "You ..." For a while he actually did not know what to say.
"I'll tell you one more thing, stand firm." Johnsan said mysteriously, "I can now clearly feel the magical beast eggs in my mental space communicating with me, they're eager to hatch, so maybe I'm getting a bit of a head start on my summoning skills."
"Ah!" Fate just couldn't catch his breath and said sharply, "Them? What do you mean? Isn't there only one magical beast egg?"
Johnsan blurted out in a moment of excitement as he had also just sensed about ten alien eggs sending him messages about wanting to hatch.
"That ... this is ... just now I felt as if the mental space had doubled in size again, and just now there were a few more magical beast eggs exactly like the original."
Floundering, unable to endure the excitement any longer, Fate fell headlong to the ground, rolling his eyes and passing out.
"Johnsan, come up here." Anna's voice came from above.
