Fantasy Family Simulator - Chapter 40

Chapter 40 The Smile in the Memory

This was a test of Gary’s basic skills. There could not be any mistakes. Otherwise, the next peck might not be on the shield, but on the chest, eyes, crotch, and other key parts.

Gary’s expression was focused and serious. He waved his shield methodically like a phantom. His movements were firm and standard, as if he had been through thousands of trials and tribulations.

Gary neutralized the eagle’s attacks one by one, but he did not smile because of this. In other words, his practiced movements always brought back a memory.

Such basic skills could not do without his father’s help. In his impression, his father had just returned from the battlefield and was always silent. Not long after he returned, he had undergone strict training and meticulously polished every move.

At that time, he did not understand. It was not easy for him to become a noble. Shouldn’t he enjoy himself in the future?

Hence, he often acted mischievously and refused to listen to his arrangements. However, his father found him easily every time and whipped him, leaving a burning mark. He gritted his teeth in pain.

At that time, he didn’t understand and instinctively rejected his father. Later, when the father and son were drunk late at night, his father told him a secret: he didn’t have much time left and didn’t have many years left to live.

His father’s desolate expression pierced his heart like a needle.

After sadly recounting some of his experiences, he understood that his father, a battlefield scout, had frequently participated in the super frontline of the battlefield and had encountered countless dangers.

In order to transmit the information to the back, he had repeatedly survived life and death dangers. In the end, he ended up with a hidden illness. He had been injured in the cruel environment of the battlefield for many years -he had long exhausted his life force.

Therefore, he understood that survival was more important than anything else!

The clear image of his father holding a glass of wine with tears in his eyes, telling Gary not to blame him. He had been too harsh in the past. He only wanted to impart his precious experience and skills related to survival to his son in the remaining time he had left after returning so that his son would be safer in the future.

After drinking, no one could understand Gary’s feelings. He only remembered that he was pale. He didn’t know if it was because of the alcohol or some other reason, but he spent the night in a daze.

From then on, he was no longer sloppy. He began to grit his teeth and endure his father’s training, as if he had grown up overnight. Every time he completed his training according to the requirements, the smile on his father’s face became the best gift for those years.

After his father left, every time he recalled this experience, he realized that the most precious thing was his father’s smile.

The pain during training was thrown into an unknown corner.

A few minutes passed.

Gary’s movements were still fast and steady. He relied on his strong endurance to support himself. His upper and lower body, left, right, eyes, crotch, chest, and other corners were tightly protected.

It was like an umbrella. No matter how much water you splashed, the rain would not touch my clothes.

However, Gary suddenly retreated and turned around, giving the male eagle a chance to leave six bloody marks on his back.

He didn’t wear armor because he wanted to maximize his speed. When facing the Fire-feathered Eagle, he had to ensure that his speed was effective. With thick armor, even if the Fire-feathered Eagle got close, it would be very difficult for him to catch an opportunity. Gary, who had been hit, let out a painful groan. However, a ruthless expression flashed across his back. With a backhand pull, a faint pure white light attached to the blade and quickly struck the Fire-feathered Eagle that had injured his back.

At the critical moment, the Fire-feathered Eagle dodged. Then, it let out a sharp cry and rushed into the sky.

Gary panted as he looked at the eagle with a bright scratch on its chest. Finally, he smiled. At least his efforts had not been in vain. Exchanging injuries for injuries was better than being helpless.

On the other side, behind the female eagle, there would be a huge rock pressing down on its back every short period of time, causing its heart to tense up.

The plan of a close-quarters attack failed before it started.

As the female eagle kept dodging, no one realized that its position had unknowingly been forced towards the hill where the Red Fire Tree was located, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

The female eagle’s mind was filled with the danger of death. With its intelligence, it did not have time to think too much.

It could only be said that Reiter’s casting techniques were too exquisite. His Rockfall Spell was very accurate, and it actually had the effect of blocking the positioning. He kept forcing the Fire-feathered Eagle to the position he wanted.

“Huh? Why did Reiter run over there?” Baron Gary frowned. He did not want to see the mage being too far away from him in a team battle. However, on second thought, Reiter’s magic proficiency had almost reached the peak. He suppressed the female eagle alone. It seemed that he did not need to worry about it. This time, he had invited a strong helper! He only needed to ensure that he would not be surrounded and that Reiter would not be surrounded as well.

At the thought of this, he perked up. Staring at the male eagle, he took out two stones and threw them over. At the same time, he hooked his finger provocatively.

Crack.

The stone was smashed into pieces, but Gary’s actions were not very harmful. They were extremely insulting. The male eagle flapped its wings angrily, and a hot wind blew. A fireball fell from the sky.

Gary twisted his body at the critical moment and flashed three meters away. His footsteps were steady as he landed calmly. He had been trained by his father since he was young, and it was one-on-one devil training. Many practical and effective movements and techniques had to be branded with cost energy.

“I have to find another loophole. Otherwise, I won’t be able to hurt this eagle.” Gary didn’t know about Reiter’s plan. All he could think of was how to deal with this eagle. His eyes flashed as he thought of a plan!

Gary’s eyes lit up when he saw the jagged rocks halfway up a hill. The terrain perfectly matched the plan he had just thought of. He rushed over after making a decision. Although this move was far away from Reiter, it was the most successful method he could think of to deal with this eagle. He’s going all out!

With a gust of wind, Gary ran to the side of the small mountain hidden by the Apprentice Knights at the back. Coincidentally, he was in the direction of Reiter, forming a diagonal of two adjacent hills, forming a Z-shaped shape.

Gary’s figure flashed and disappeared between the rocks. The Fire-feathered Eagle was furious and quickly followed.

Reiter noticed Gary’s actions and actually froze. He had been worrying about how to find the right time to cast the Earth Cone Spell. This was because he was confident that with his casting skills, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to kill this female eagle with the combination of Earth Cone and Rockfall.

However, he did not want to expose the Earth Cone Spell in public. Otherwise, the surrounding people would guess that he had taken the bloodline potion.

This could give rise to unnecessary speculation and trouble.

None of the princes and princesses of the Kingdom of Jinlun could use the Bloodline Potion. This was partly due to the scarcity of the potion, but also because the level of the Bloodline Potion was insufficient. The medicinal properties were so violent that no one dared to take it.

Not to mention those marquises and counts, even the children of the royal family could not meet the demand. If the nobles below did not make great contributions, they could forget about it.

He was just a Baron, yet he had such a fortuitous encounter. If word got out, he would definitely become famous. His name would be widely known in the Kingdom of Jinlun. To him, this was not fear. It was just the opposite of his idea of keeping a low profile and building a wall to accumulate grain. Just as he was in a dilemma, the commotion behind him suddenly disappeared. Gary actually took the initiative to enter the blind spot!
