Big Capitalist

Since the day when Conan and Ed clashed, Fezzi Famin developed a strong interest in Ed after hearing what the guards told him.

As Kenan's older brother, he has always been paying attention to his younger brother's growth, but Ed at this time made him realize that perhaps this servant has potential that he has not yet realized.

On the night that Ed started practicing swordplay, Fizzi happened to pass by the library behind the mansion and saw Ed practicing swordplay in the open space. Fizzi's eyes flashed with surprise, and the moonlight shone on Ed through the treetops. He used branches to perform basic swordplay over and over again. His movements were a little clumsy, but full of persistence and enthusiasm.

"That's not how you use a sword." Fizzi Famion's voice suddenly rang out, startling Ed. He turned around and saw the eldest son coming from behind the tree. He saluted quickly, his face full of surprise and uneasiness.

Fei Qi didn't say much, but drew his sword and began to demonstrate and explain the basic swordsmanship. His movements were smooth and graceful, and every move contained a deep foundation in swordsmanship. Ed watched attentively, secretly amazed in his heart, Fei Qi's swordsmanship was like art.

Under Feiqi's patient guidance, Ed gradually mastered the essentials of basic swordsmanship. After repeated practice, Feiqi nodded with satisfaction, and Ed said gratefully: "Thank you for your teaching, young master."

"I teach you not for a servant like you, but for my brother." Fizzi's eyes became serious. "I hope he can have external pressure, an opponent who seems to be able to catch up, but is impossible to defeat. Ed, you are the catalyst."

Ed was stunned, not understanding Fizzi's intention. Fizzi continued, "I care about my brother very much. He obviously has no so-called talent, but he has the same mission as me to revitalize the family. Our family is only a baron in the lower nobility, and my father hopes that we can make the family go further. He fought for a place for me to enter the Arcane Academy, and next year my brother will follow in my footsteps and go there. But with his current ability, he will be at the end once he enters. I don't want him to be like this, so he must grow up. And you are the driving force to stimulate his growth."

"Arcane Academy?" Ed couldn't help but ask, his heart full of longing. He even risked offending the eldest son by asking, "Is it possible for someone like me to enter the Arcane Academy?"

Fei Qi was a little shocked when he heard this, then he laughed and said, "You want to enter the Arcane Academy? Don't dream! Even if we brothers want to get in, we have to give a huge benefit to the nobles representing the Arcane Academy of the Dawn Empire. This is not just gold coins, but also merits and connections. The Arcane Academy is a holy place for magicians and a temple of learning. It is almost impossible for ordinary people to get in, at least in our empire."

After hearing this, Ed inevitably felt disappointed and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, but he didn't say much.

Seeing this, Feiqi continued, "I will go to the Arcane Academy to study in half a month. During this half month, I will come here every night to teach you swordsmanship. If you really beat my brother, then when I come back next year, I can promise you one thing."

A glimmer of hope ignited in Ed's heart. Fizzi knew what Ed was thinking by looking at his expression. He smiled and said, "With my talent, I believe I can definitely join the student union. The student union of the Arcane Academy has great power. It shouldn't be a problem to get a place in the school."

When Ed heard this, a determined look appeared in his eyes. He watched Fezzi Famin's back gradually disappear into the distance, silently repeating the importance of this opportunity in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called out to Fei Qi: "Master, your sword!"

Fei Qi turned around and waved his hand: "I give it to you. How can you practice swordplay without a good sword? Don't worry, this sword is not a valuable thing."

Ed looked at Feiqi's back with gratitude, and his heart was filled with emotion. He bowed deeply, clenched the sword in his hand, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and swore in his heart: no matter how difficult it is, he will work hard to grow up, strive to win the bet with Konan, and win the opportunity to enter the Arcane Academy!

In the following days, Ed was like a wild beast, practicing swordsmanship in the open space behind the library every night. He benefited a lot from Fizzi's guidance, and he gradually realized the true meaning of swordsmanship through constant practice. Every time he swung the sword, it was a challenge to his body and will.

At the same time, Ke Nan's performance in the training ground also worried Fei Qi. Although he worked hard to improve his swordsmanship, his eager mentality and excessive training made Fei Qi worry whether he could hold on.

Fizzi knew that his brother needed a strong opponent to motivate him, and Ed was the one who planted the seeds of hope in his heart and became the driving force for his growth.

"Stop, don't train in this almost self-abuse way anymore!" Feiqi picked up the sword in his hand and spread out Konan who had swung the sword thousands of times.

Kenan looked at his calloused hands, then at his brother. "Brother, I'm not a genius like you. I don't have a talent for swordsmanship. I can only challenge my limits over and over again! I work very hard! Brother, since you are a genius, you have never tested your limits, because you can always easily master things that I cannot learn."

Feiqi was silent for a moment after hearing what his brother said. Perhaps this kind of willpower to try hard to break one's own limits is the natural enemy of the so-called "genius".

But brother, there is another kind of person in the world who is not only a genius, but also has the same or even greater willpower as you.

As time went by, Ed's swordsmanship continued to improve under Fizzi's guidance. His movements became more and more smooth, and his sword light was like a rainbow and his sword force was like a tide.

Whenever night falls, in the open space behind the library, you can always see him waving his sword, as if blending with the moonlight, the sword and the moonlight shining together.

Finally, a month passed in a flash, and Ed felt his inner anticipation and nervousness intertwined. He knew that he was about to face a life-and-death battle with Ke Nan, which was not only for his own survival, but also to prove himself and show everyone his value.

Under the cold moonlight, the earth looked particularly desolate. Ed looked at the moon that had accompanied him for countless days and months and couldn't help but murmured, "I really never thought that the world of swords would be so powerful and wonderful...Father, mother, brother, I'm sorry, maybe I can't go home, but I don't regret it, because I have seen such a wonderful world!"

There was a determined light in Ed's eyes, and he swore to himself: no matter what the outcome, he would never give up and never back down!
