Fulilian: Dominate Aura at the beginning

Chapter 102 Have you ever seen the sun at four in the morning on the back of the Heavenly Vein Dragon? (14)

"What a coincidence, young man, I never expected that we would meet at this time."

"I also think it's quite a coincidence, sir..."

"I never expected you to get up so early. Do you also have a habit of jogging in the morning like me?"

"..."

"Hmm? Judging from your expression, did I say something I shouldn't have?"

No, that's not it—

I didn't have this habit before, but I should start starting today..."

"why?"

why?
I'd also like to know why...

According to the provisions of that so-called "equal contract"—

Simmel, running at near supersonic speed on the back of the Celestial Dragon, circled the central area of ​​the castle...

Upon hearing the question from Nan Yong, who seemed to be strolling alongside him—

They were rendered speechless.

yes……

At only seventeen years old, what did I do to deserve such punishment from the Goddess?

And what exactly is this "equal contract" that I've never heard of before?
"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient for you to say?"

Nan Yong, who was jogging in the morning, raised an eyebrow, somewhat curious about Simmel's strange behavior.

Although he is undoubtedly the strongest hero of the South and can be trusted.

But recalling what I wrote by hand in Agushid's study yesterday—

Once she regained her senses, Simmel probably realized that this was the result of her own actions.

And who knows...

Mr. Agushid would indeed use this as a test for him.

After a long silence, Simmel, who had finally decided to conceal the truth, gave a bitter smile.

Then he gave a polite response to the senior who asked him the question.

"There's nothing inconvenient to talk about..."

Simmel, in the midst of her frantic run, managed to turn her head slowly to look at the Southern Warrior beside her.

He smiled casually and struck a relatively handsome pose.

Then he told Nan Yong the prepared excuse—

"Uncle, have you ever seen the sun at four in the morning on the back of the Heavenly Vein Dragon?"

Ok?
Although it was immediately clear that Simmel's words were just an excuse.

But to hear his own famous quote uttered by Simmel...

Nan Yong couldn't help but scratch his chin with great interest.

Because he had no interest in investigating the secrets of his juniors.

So he simply smiled, having slowed down his pace tenfold to chat with Simmel.

They chose to comply with Simmel and skip the topic.

"If you put it that way, I have indeed seen less of them over the years."

"A decade or so ago, I would have done this every day..."

Boom! !
Nan Yong's gentle voice was abruptly interrupted by the sudden burst of devastating lightning.

Simmel, who was chatting with him beside him, suddenly began to convulse uncontrollably.

【请您根据契约，在4：00——6：00期间，围绕天脉龙城堡中心地区长跑100圈】

In exchange, you will receive "Complete Explanation of the Escalde Style Swordsmanship (Beginner Level)".

【…】

Friendly reminder: Please refrain from talking to others during the long run.

Otherwise, you will be considered to have violated the contract and will be punished by the magic of the Lightning of Annihilation.

【…】

[Finally, a reminder: please enter a state of complete focus immediately, otherwise you will be punished by a double dose of the Destruction Lightning spell.]

【…】

Three, two, one

[The Lightning of Annihilation unleashes its magic, at two percent power—]

【release!!】

Simmel felt a strange, tingling sensation all over from the electric shock, but thankfully it didn't affect her condition, though she had a bit of a headache.

He gave an awkward smile after his lie was completely exposed in front of the Southern Hero.

Then I looked at those dark, eerie texts that I had overlooked because of my conversation with Nan Yong...

Under Nan Yong's increasingly curious gaze, Simmel pointed forward to the culprit who had caused all of this.

"Okay... um!!"

"I actually did this because I had no other choice, hmm!!"

"Senior... Ahhhhh!!! Do you know... Ahhhhh!!! What is... Ahhhhh!!! [Equal Contract]?"

"Uncle... Ahhhhhh!! Can you see the text in front of me?"

Looking at Simmel, who was screaming intermittently in front of him, trying to convey a message to him...

Finding things increasingly interesting, the Southern Hero followed his gaze.

Nothing was gained, only a blank. [The magic that allows one to see the future], activated—

The result remains unchanged.

"What did you do to offend the teacher?"

The Southern Hero chuckled, confirming that his inner guess had indeed been correct.

For a fleeting moment, he thought that Frillie might be having a disagreement with her junior...

But since even the "magic that allows one to see the future" cannot be found as a reason.

Then it would be a matter of Agushid personally taking action.

Although he had never heard of what an "equal contract" was...

But considering that even speaking a few words to Simmel now would result in punishment from the Lightning of Annihilation—

The Hero of the South guessed that this must be some kind of special magic that Agusid possessed, or some kind of magical artifact that he did not know about.

This junior is really unlucky...

What did he do to make such a good-tempered teacher treat him like this?
"I don't know either!!!"

Simmel's screams once again interrupted Nan Yong's thoughts.

"I just filled out a timeline!!!!"

The blue-haired hero, on the verge of tears, was left speechless as the destructive lightning intensified.

However, although I was shocked a few more times.

But he was completely certain of the answer from the Southern Hero—

The culprit was him, who was in Agushid's study yesterday.

He recalled Agusid's expression and surprise at the time.

Simmel felt that even he probably hadn't expected to push himself to this extent.

But since Agushid didn't stop it—

That means that everything you are going through now has become part of the test.

Therefore, no matter what, I must persevere to the end.

However... this doesn't seem to be entirely a punishment—

I glanced at the extremely conspicuous "reward" among the black pieces in front of me—

"The Complete Explanation of Escalde Style Swordsmanship..."

Simmel murmured the unfamiliar name.

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard Agusid mention this word in the study yesterday.

"So... I really did bring this on myself?"

The blue-haired hero gave a bitter smile.

Then, watching the countdown begin again in front of me—[Three, Two, One]—

With no more doubts and no longer wanting to experience the sensation of being electrocuted, Simmel endured the tingling sensation in her body.

He turned his head and gave the Southern Hero beside him an apologetic smile.

Young adventurers, who believed this might determine whether they could achieve their dreams in the future, waved goodbye to their seniors.

Then, out of helplessness, I entered a state of focused concentration.

He ran forward without looking back.

-

"really interesting……"

"Did that junior just mention 'The Complete Explanation of Escalde Style Swordsmanship'?"

“Escald…”

"Is this the 'Escald' I'm thinking of?"

Looking at Simmel in the distance, who had been struck hard by the lightning of destruction once again.

The Southern Warrior did not give chase.

He maintained his pace, muttering the surname he had just heard from Simmel's whisper...

Considering the name Simmel initially mentioned, coupled with his knowledge of Agushid.

Almost instantly—

The Hero of the South had a rough idea of ​​what the [Equal Contract] was.

"【Equal Contract】——"

"This name, combined with the teacher's personality..."

"I understand now, so that's how it is..."

The Southern Warrior stopped and gazed at Simmel's retreating figure, which had almost disappeared from his sight.

"As long as you work hard, you'll be rewarded? Is there really such a good thing as this?"

—Based solely on the surname 'Escald'.

The Hero of the South guessed the essence of the [Equal Contract].

the reason is simple.

Because Simmel should never have known this surname.

This surname was almost unknown four hundred years ago.

"Unifying the Empire, the 'Sword Saint' Family..."

"The teacher is surprisingly generous."
