Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 625 Apprenticeship
Yaro's departure took longer than Bevin had anticipated. Although they arrived in the morning, he didn't return to the camp until noon, carrying two geese with him.

Claire chuckled, "Mr. Yarrow, were you out hunting just now?"

"I guess so. I first went to the San Fernando Imperial Army camp. On my way back after the reconnaissance, I suddenly had a new idea about lightness skill, so I went into the jungle and caught two geese."

Yaro held up the lively goose in his hand and exclaimed:

"I must say, capturing a wild goose alive is really not easy."

"Mr. Yarrow, you've already created the art of lightness skill?"

Claire was overjoyed. He didn't care about the geese, but only about the lightness skill that Yarrow had mentioned.

Didn't Bevan tell you?

Yaro was somewhat surprised and turned his gaze to Bevin, who was reading a book next to him.

Bevan pursed his lips, remained silent, and pretended to read his book.

Claire said helplessly:
"He only discussed the matter of becoming my apprentice with me. After that, he read his books and I read my secret manual. We didn't have anything to say to each other."

This father and son...

"So, how did your discussions go?"

Although he wasn't surprised, since it concerned a skill point, Yaro still asked one more question.

Claire said respectfully:

"To be valued by Mr. Yarrow is an honor for our Perrin family, how could I possibly refuse? But how does Mr. Yarrow plan to arrange the apprenticeship ceremony?"

"Just have Beiwen offer me a cup of tea and call me 'Master,' that's all. No need for all that trouble."

Yaro waved his hand, then suddenly remembered something and added:

"When we get back, if we have time, we can hold another apprenticeship banquet and invite people we know to have a meal. It will also serve as an introduction to our master-disciple relationship. We can also hold a more formal apprenticeship ceremony then."

Yaro was worried that his apprenticeship was too simple and wouldn't be recognized by the system, so he made up for it in advance.

If the task could be completed by simply offering a cup of tea, then everyone would be happy, and there would be no need for further trouble.

If that doesn't work, there's always a reason to try again.

Claire nodded in agreement, then turned and called out to Bevan beside her:

"Didn't you hear me? Hurry up and pour some tea!"

"Hey!"

Bevan jumped up and ran happily to the stone stove next to him.

A moment later, Bevan walked over quickly, carrying a stone cup.

With a slight thought, a gentle breeze suddenly arose around them, stirring up the sand and making the tea in Bevin's hand sway, startling him so much that he quickly slowed his pace.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened. Bevin quickly walked to Yaro's side, raised the stone cup, and respectfully said:
"Master, please have tea."

Yaro picked up his teacup, glanced at the swirling tea inside, and thought to himself:
"This silly child, who told him to use such a big cup and pour so much tea?"

Thinking this, Yaro didn't waste any more words, picked up the teacup as big as a bowl, tilted his head back and drank it down.

bang bang bang!
The tea flowed freely, soaking Yaro's clothes and revealing glimpses of his muscular chest.

Yaro breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah...that feels so good!

He casually tossed aside the stone cup in his hand and patted Bevin on the shoulder with an air of magnanimity.

At this moment, Claire's eyes were following the stone cup... It took him a lot of effort to carve and polish this leak-proof, smooth-surfaced, and appropriately sized cup.

He was confident he could catch the stone cup halfway through.

But... wouldn't that be impolite?

Claire hesitated for only a moment before the stone cup struck the stone wall beside her.

Bang!

Debris flew everywhere.

At this moment, Yaro's words were heard:

"Alright! From now on, you are my apprentice!"

"Isn't it 'disciple'? Shouldn't 'master' and 'disciple' be more symmetrical?"

"It's alright, let's each talk our own thing... cough cough, let's each say our own thing."

Yaro gave a casual reply, but his mind was preoccupied with the task at hand.

"what happened?"

"Why wasn't the task completed?" "Is there something in the task settlement that I haven't sorted out?"

"Or perhaps the apprenticeship ceremony was simply too rudimentary, which is why the system doesn't recognize it?"

"Or is it that because I have this thought, the system, based on my opinion, does not approve of such a simple apprenticeship ceremony?"

Yaro's mind was in turmoil.

Although he had already prepared a pretext to do it again, what if he couldn't find the reason and failed again?
We can't just keep holding it, can we?

"Think about it from another angle, what details were there when the previous task was completed?"

The previous completed mission... the revenge of the dead, which was to kill Morton, was accomplished when Morton died.

"Does that... require the death of living beings?"

It's not impossible.

As previously deduced, the reason why the system taskbar cannot be opened is because it cannot perceive the outside world, so it needs to rely on Yaro's mental power as 'eyes' to discover tasks.

Conversely, once a task is completed, a 'messenger' might also be needed to inform the system that the task is finished.

Alternatively, it could be about providing the system with the energy it needs.

Of course, Yaro would never kill someone for this reason just to add to the fun.

He glanced around and immediately looked at the two geese he had just caught.

Thoughts raced, and soon an excuse was found.

"Bevin!"

"Hey, Master!"

“The master-disciple relationship may also be an important one in the inheritance of martial arts, so our apprenticeship this time is not just a matter between the two of us, but also to set the rules for future apprenticeship ceremonies. Don’t you think so?”

Bevin looked somewhat bewildered.

"Ah? Really?"

"of course!"

Yarrow spoke with absolute certainty.

"The most important matters of the state are sacrifice and war! Sacrifice is about order and rules, and war is the means to maintain order and rules. What we are doing now is to establish rules for warriors."

Are the most important affairs of state sacrifice and war?

Claire pondered these words. Although they sounded a bit strange, upon closer reflection, they seemed to make perfect sense.

Bevin, without even thinking, asked directly:
"Master, what should I do?"

Yaro walked to the inner wall of the stone chamber, turned his head, and said slowly:

"A martial artist's knees are worth gold; he only kneels to heaven, earth, and his parents."

"I hope that future martial artists will all pay homage to Heaven and Earth and to their ancestor after they have entered the sect."

"Of course, the ancestor that martial artists will worship from now on will naturally be this Old Man Who Mending the Sky."

"As for you, you only need to worship this..."

After Yaro finished speaking, he turned to face the stone wall and focused on waving his palm.

Snapped!
A dense surge of earth-based magic quickly flowed into the rock wall, and using a control technique similar to that of a magic armor, it rapidly outlined a complete pattern on the surface of the rock.

Yaro withdrew his palm and turned it into a fist, and the fire magic power accumulated in the Demon Sea Pendant surged out rapidly.

Flame Fist - Wild Bite!

bump!
Flames burst forth, engulfing the entire rock face.

Click!

Click!

……

A series of faint cracking sounds came from the rock wall.

Before it could stop, Yaro waved his hand again, throwing out a ball of water.

Boom!

Crash-!
The rock face cracked, and stone fragments fell down, kicking up thick dust.

As the dust settled, two large characters suddenly appeared on the once smooth rock face.

--world.
