The golden magic power was dazzling, and Emily was bathed in the magic light, like a goddess.
Rey couldn't even look at her directly. The expensive special effects looked really hard on the eyes.
Emily had only released her magic power, but standing aside, he felt heavy pressure.
He did think that the former was not simple, but he didn't expect it to be so exaggerated.
I am afraid that even if we look at the entire continent, Emily can be regarded as a genius at the forefront.
She is worthy of being a noble of the country, and this is the combat power she achieved before she was captured.
Rey couldn't estimate her combat power at all; the difference in strength was too big.
After the magic seal is lifted, the only role of the contract is to determine Emily's life and death and to protect Rey as the master.
If Emily bets that he won't take her life directly, there are many things that can be done, and Rey can't stop it at all.
Emily looked at Rey, who was "pretending to be calm" in front of her, and sneered in her heart.
In the short while just now, she thought of an interesting thing that could reveal the disguise of the slave merchant in front of her.
Now I still need to wait for an opportunity.
In order to make Rey relax his vigilance, Emily took the magic power back into her body.
"How does it feel?"
Rey didn't seem to think that she would resist and asked indifferently.
"Fortunately, I haven't used magic power for a long time. It will take some time to recover to full condition."
"Um..."
Rey thought for a moment, "Can you teach the skills you used now?"
Emily was a little confused.
What is this for? Does he want to learn it?
She could feel that the opponent's strength was roughly at the level of being able to release magic power. Although it was weak, it had few resources after all, so it was pretty good.
However, her skills are not so easy to learn.
Before the fall of the country, there was a set of sword skills, and only one person learnt it. Now that it has been spread to other countries, it is estimated that no one can learn it.
Since he wants to see it, just show him the most difficult one. He won't be able to learn it anyway.
"Can."
Rey didn't expect her to be so easy to talk to.
Did he misunderstand her?
Emily asked Rey for a sword and demonstrated it smoothly.
She had only mastered this swordsmanship, but it was enough to shock her. She wanted to see Rey's expression of retreating despite the difficulties.
But when she sheathed her sword and looked at Rey, the man was actually closing his eyes and concentrating. Isn't this teasing her?
Emily was a little angry but quickly calmed down.
No, the other party is testing how obedient he is.
Now is not the time to be exposed; he will regret it later.
Rey's eyes were full of surprise.
[Light Magic (Beginner), 1000 points]
[Light god style swordsmanship (entry level), 500 points]
He jumped right into the points, and realisation came to him.
He didn't expect Emily to be so generous, and her swordsmanship was obviously very advanced, so he spent another 2,000 points to bring her to a small level.
The combat power rating returned to A+.
The combat power value has not increased, but Rey can clearly feel that he has become stronger.
Emily returned the sword to him. "Have you memorised the sword moves?"
She just asked knowingly and wanted to see how Rey would answer.
The latter got the benefit and had no intention of hiding it from her. He said honestly, "It's a very powerful swordsmanship. I only know a little bit about it, but I have memorised all the sword moves."
Memorised it. How could it be possible? She had practised for almost a month before she memorised all the moves and changes.
Emily quickly thought that Rey was just trying to save face.
He couldn't say that he didn't understand it at all, so he could only say some nice words to get over it.
If it were normal times, Emily would be too lazy to say more.
But now she has strength and confidence.
She had to see Rey make a fool of himself.
"Since you have memorised everything, please demonstrate it again, and I can help you correct any shortcomings."
Rey was thinking about asking Emily to teach him more skills these days, as the latter said.
Although he didn't think it was necessary, he couldn't live up to Emily's good intentions.
So I agreed, "Okay."
"Since you don't want to," Emily showed an astonished expression for the first time mid-sentence, "do you really want to demonstrate?"
Rey was a little confused; didn't she say that and ask herself?
Experiences in the mind are transformed into actions in the body.
When he first started swinging the sword, Rey was still a little unfamiliar.
Following the path of the sword, he gradually found the coordination point. The golden light covered the tip of the sword, which was quite powerful.
This sword technique was not suitable for his current combat power. Rey only showed half of the moves and then stopped.
Only one-third of his magic power is left, and each sword attack requires magic power, which consumes too much of his power. In actual combat, he can basically only use it intermittently.
Rey was very dissatisfied, but he didn't know that Emily was completely sluggish.
Emily originally just wanted to see what tricks he was playing, but the more she watched, the more frightened she became.
The power of entry is no; it is stronger than that.
He doesn't have enough magic power, so it's essentially Light god's swordsmanship.
She even doubted whether Rey had learnt this swordsmanship a long time ago, but the possibility was zero.
It is impossible for him to come into contact with this swordsmanship from somewhere other than himself. This is the swordsmanship inherited from her subjugated country – the Kingdom of Light!
Even if it spreads to foreign countries, only a few people are qualified to learn it.
Genius, the thought crossed her mind.
But he was just a slave trader from a small town, so why did he have such exaggerated qualifications?
Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Rey couldn't help but ask, "How's it going? I don't have much magic power anymore. Is there anything I can improve on?"
"Ah, it's... not bad."
Rey sighed, "That's true. I also think the problem is huge. Compared to you, the scale is vastly different."
Emily's face twitched; it was just because the difference in magic power between the two was too big!
She looked at Rey with a little more pity for talent, but if the other person was a bad person, even if he had talent, it would only become a disaster.
Therefore, her plan will not change. Next, she will reveal his true face.
But now.
The facts are before her, and she will not lie or deny them.
"With your current strength, you are already very powerful if you can do this."
"If the magic power consumption is too high, reduce the magic power output of each sword. This will extend the duration of your battle."
"In this way, you can also catch the enemy by surprise, suddenly increase the output, and catch the enemy by surprise."
Emily taught him seriously and corrected some of his moves.
The two people discussed and practised together, and Rey truly felt the growth.
Although it was not as good as the improvement of the system, he was still very grateful to Emily.
Therefore, when what happened next occurred, Rey was not nervous at all but was surprised.
Tiru came to bring water and snacks to Rey, who was practising, when she approached the two of them.
With a flash of golden light, neither Rey nor Tilu could react in time, and Emily put her sword finger on Tilu's neck and held her hostage.
Emily's eyes were cold, as if she were a different person.
"Cancel the slave contract, or bet on whether you are quicker to give the order or I am quicker to do it. You have only two choices."
The golden light on her fingertips seemed to pierce through Tilu's delicate skin at any time, and she risked her life to make a declaration to Rey.
The contract states that the owner cannot be harmed, but this obviously does not include Tilu.
