Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 4 The Strange System

"An eagle should spread its wings and soar high in the sky. Little Yaluo, this is your first time going out. A fledgling eagle should not be stopped from spreading its wings."

Nicole spoke while wiping her eyes with sobs, extremely reluctant to part.

David's face, however, carried a false sadness. He gently patted Nicole's back, turning his face to the side, as if he dared not look directly at Yaro, or as if he was afraid of revealing the smile on his lips.

"Mother, Father, I just wanted to walk around the door, please don't make such a fuss!"

Little Yalu looked like a dead fish.

“Dear Nicole, how about we go for a candlelight dinner? We haven’t had a proper rest all year.”

Nestled in her father's arms, Nicole, the mother affectionately reminded him:

"Dear David, it's still noon!"

“Dear Nicole.”

David looked tenderly at the person in his arms, a gentle smile on his lips, his delicate face full of sincerity, and his whole being seemed to radiate a faint golden light.

"Whenever I'm with you, it's always a candlelight dinner."

Nicole's eyes sparkled with a dreamy light as she nestled against David's chest, humming softly.

"Ok!"

Seeing the two people acting as if no one else was around, Xiao Yaluo's head immediately started to swell with disbelief.

The mother is usually very reliable, but whenever she appears with the father, her entire demeanor is assimilated by him, which explains why she was eventually tricked into returning home by her father.

With a livid expression, Xiao Yalu left after uttering a curt "pretentious."

Just as Xiao Yaluo said, he didn't plan to go far. He just wanted to find a secluded spot to check the system in peace.

Looking at the string of 'middle' characters, Xiao Yaluo frowned even more deeply.

It's been almost two months since I learned to walk, and the system keeps showing "in progress" here. Is it actually working or not? At least give me an answer!
Let me die knowing why, okay?

[Middle Middle Middle...]

As the system played the word '中' on a loop, Xiao Yaluo couldn't help but sigh. How he wished this was the system's answer to him!
When you first gave me the initial main quest, everything was fine, wasn't it?

Why are you stuck on a beginner's quest?

how?

Are the beginner quests harder than the main quests?

Hey hey!

If this continues, my best time to grow after my rebirth will be over. How will I surpass those true geniuses in the future?
Don't let the system malfunction! You're my cheat code!
[Middle Middle Middle...]

Garbage system!

Little Yaro turned to look at the castle behind him, but his parents were nowhere to be seen. They must have gone to have their own 'candlelight dinner'.

His gaze was deep, and he couldn't help but recall the extraordinary event he had witnessed a few months ago.

Unfortunately, Ms. Fana left before he could learn the language of this world. And no matter how much Little Yaro questioned David about that matter afterward, David avoided the topic.

However, if the mountain won't come to me, then I'll go to the mountain.

Can a living person suffocate urine?

Xiao Yalu had already figured out his goal.

Every day, several armored and armed men would come and go outside the castle. After receiving the letters sent from the castle, they would leave immediately, but sometimes they would stop to train in the open space outside.

In Xiao Yaluo's mind, since they dared to wear armor as clothes, they must be quite strong. If he could obtain their cultivation techniques, there was a high chance that he could stimulate the martial arts system and activate it properly.

With his chubby little legs, Xiao Yalu walked steadily toward the open space to the side.

The ground in the open space was lower than in other areas, and when Xiao Yalu stepped on it, he realized that the ground had actually been compacted by his feet.

At this moment, on this flat ground, there were not only three people wearing armor, but also several guards from the castle and a large group of burly men, each training and shouting, creating a lively and bustling scene.

But when they saw Xiao Yaluo approaching, they all stopped after reminding each other.

Little Yalu is far too young. In terms of height alone, he's not even as tall as the guards' knees. If he were to be hit by a flying stone, none of them could bear the responsibility.

"Greetings, Young Master Yaro."

In response to the guards' greetings, Xiao Yalu nodded slightly, glanced at the armored men, picked out a kind-looking young man, and walked straight over.

Upon seeing Xiao Yaluo approaching, the young man bowed and said firmly, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Young Master Yaluo."

The young man simply bent over, and his massive body blocked out the entire sky, as if a mountain had collapsed, and the light in front of Xiao Yaluo immediately dimmed.

"what?"

Xiao Yalu swallowed hard, forced a smile, tilted his cute little head, and feigned confusion, "Do you know me too?"

“Of course, Young Master Yaro.”

Looking at the little one in front of him, the young man could not contain his excitement. He smiled kindly and thought to himself, "I know you better than you think."

The letters that were sent out of the castle every day were not sealed, and reading the contents of the letters each day on their way back was one of their few pleasures.

Therefore, they all know what time Xiao Yaluo gets up every day, what time he eats, and what he has learned each day.

It can be roughly understood as a text-based live stream from another world.

Aside from never having actually seen Xiao Yalu in person, they could say they had witnessed Xiao Yalu's growth every single day. These dedicated messengers were all Xiao Yalu's "live stream fans."

That's why they had long regarded Xiao Yaluo as their junior.

"But I don't know you, sir. What's your name?"

Little Yalu blinked his eyes, making full use of his age advantage.

Kabir replied excitedly, "Kabir Diarra, young master Yarrow, you can just call me Kabir."

Xiao Yalu was a little puzzled by Kabir's attitude. He didn't know that this was the emotion of a fan meeting their idol in person, so he could only continue to guide the conversation in his own way, using an admiring tone.

"Mr. Kabir, you are amazing!"

"They can actually wear such huge armor!"

Upon hearing Xiao Yaluo's words, Kabir beamed with a bright smile, straightened his shoulders, and proudly declared, "Of course, I am 'Sain'!" 'Sain'?
Little Yaro was a little confused. When his mother was teaching him to speak, she pointed to the guards in the castle and told him to call them "Mr. Saien." In his understanding, this word meant guard.

He didn't know that the pronunciation meant 'knight'.

So, what this gentleman means is—'I am a guard'?
Are you proud because you're a guard?
"Is he like those 'knights'?"

Xiao Yalu pointed to the unarmored guards around him and asked, "What are you doing?" The guards who were secretly eavesdropping on the conversation also straightened their backs and pretended to be solemn.

Kabir glanced around and said disdainfully, "They... strictly speaking, are not 'knights' yet."

The guards froze, their embarrassment tinged with a hint of indignation, but they all lowered their heads, not daring to refute them openly.

Little Yaro also noticed these situations, after all, to him, these guards were all 'giants', and their every move was too obvious.

Strictly speaking, are they not yet guards?

What? Are there different ranks and social classes among the guards?

Little Yaro was a little confused about their job positions, but that wasn't his goal right now. So he jumped up and down, saying admiringly, "I want to be as good as you!"

"Mr. Kabir, can you teach me?"

"teach you?"

Kabir's expression gradually froze. He knew Xiao Yaro's identity; how could he dare to act on his own without permission? Besides...

"You are too young, your body hasn't fully developed yet, and you can't do 'knight' training."

The essence of a knight is to unleash the potential of life, but without a strong physique to support it, the moment to unleash that potential is also the moment of death.

Like adrenaline, when activated, it causes the heart to beat faster, the pupils to dilate, breathing to quicken, and unleashes power beyond the limits.

However, the consequence of excessive stimulation is death.

Little Yalu pressed on, unwilling to give up, "Can you teach me? Isn't sitting a form of exercise?"

Internal strength, do you understand? I'm talking about internal strength!
Kabir shook his head slightly, looking lovingly at the little boy in front of him, and said, "Knights don't have this kind of training method. We only train strength! As long as we have enough strength, we will be as fast as lightning, we will be invincible, and we will be unbeatable!"

"As for the foundation? Our foundation is building muscle!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd chimed in, "There's also the 'Knight's Breathing Technique'."

Kabir turned and explained, "'Knight's Breathing Technique' is designed to better train muscles."

"Knight's Breathing Technique? What does 'Shelan' mean?" Xiao Yaluo asked hurriedly.

Little Yaro learned the word 'Sain'; it meant guard.

He had never heard the word 'Shelan' before, but judging from the adverb 'cultivation method' that followed, what they were talking about was very likely to be useful to him.

Kabir inhaled and exhaled deeply, then bowed his head and explained, "That's 'breathing.' The 'Knight's Breathing Technique' teaches how to 'breathe' to better train muscles and stimulate the life seed."

Oh!
So it means breathing exercises!
'Sain' - guard, 'Shelan' - breathing exercises, plus the adverb 'technique'.

What they were talking about, translated, means—"The Bodyguard's Breathing Techniques"?
How to become a successful bodyguard

This name sounds so weak!

"Can you teach me? I want to learn too!"

Regardless of its strength, I'll take it first. Maybe learning it will activate the system?

Kabir hesitated. Although he liked to teach others and was willing to show off in front of Little Yaro, he also knew what was important. Without permission from above, how could he dare to overstep his bounds?

Noticing Kabir's hesitation, Xiao Yaluo understood his concerns after a moment's thought. After all, the item was called "Guardian Breathing Technique," so it was very likely that he had something better at home.

But my family won't teach me. No matter how much I ask, they avoid the topic. What should I do?

Let nature take its course?

Wouldn't that waste all the advantages of reincarnation?
Little Yaro pretended not to know. After Kabir did not answer for a long time, he lowered his head, blinked, looked disappointed and sad, but still bowed politely.

"If it's too precious... then forget it."

"Mr. Kabir, thank you for your answer!"

That expression was obviously faked by Xiao Yaluo. He was too young to use any coercion or bribery.

Therefore, age is his only 'weapon'.

“Precious? No, it’s not about being precious.”

"Why... is that?"

Little Yalu raised his head, trying to widen his eyes to make himself appear more innocent and adorable.

"This……"

Kabir didn't know how to explain, after all, the head of the family had given a strict order that anything related to wizards must be kept secret until little Yaro turned three.

Looking up at the castle beside him, Kabir suddenly thought of a solution and reached into his armor to pull out an old book.

He fondly stroked the smooth cover of the old book, then looked up and said:
"Young Master Yarrow, I have a copy of 'The Knight's Breathing Technique' here. How about I give it to you? If you want to learn it, give it to Mrs. Nicole and let her teach you to read. What do you think?"

Most of the books are made up of words, so even if they are given to a toddler who is a little over one year old, there won't be any major problems. Besides, it's better to let the lady teach him to read.

In this way, Xiao Yaluo's interest in learning to read and write can be stimulated.

The question of whether or not to teach him the "Knight's Breathing Technique" will also be decided by the lady.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, Kabir was prepared to set off soon to relay what had happened that day to Lord Pakhz Ghana, to ensure everything went smoothly!
Little Yalu jumped up with joy, grabbed the old book, and nodded happily, "Great! Thank you!"

Kabir looked at his empty palm, sighed softly, and felt a mix of anxiety and uncertainty.

This book, "The Knight's Breathing Technique," held extraordinary significance for Kabir.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept it on him after memorizing all the details.

"Mr. Kabir, may I ask you if there's anything I don't understand?"

Xiao Yaluo knew, of course, that his question might be a bit too much, but now that he had finally found someone willing to talk to him, it would be a shame not to take advantage of such a good sheep.

Looking at the expectation and determination in the little boy's eyes, Kabir suddenly felt a sense of disorientation, as if he were seeing himself many years ago.

Did I have the same look in my eyes back then?

“Yes,” Kabir nodded seriously.

This might be an opportunity for him, he thought, but he didn't hide anything and said directly, "If possible, as long as you need it, many people will be willing to teach you, after all... there might be benefits involved."

"But this is your book, isn't it?"

Kabir paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course."
