Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 149.

"Thank you for your help, Gendry. Please provide a scabbard for this short sword, and the price will be calculated at the end."

A peaceful and friendly voice came, awakening the bewildered thinking of the blacksmith apprentice.

This muscular young guy blinked his eyes instinctively, shook his head, and then saw the unattractively handsome guest in front of him, looking at him with questioning eyes.

He woke up suddenly.

I was distracted just now?

Gendry wasn't sure if he hadn't been resting well lately.

But it's not a big deal, and you don't need to care about it.

After waking up, he followed Lan En's gaze and found what the guest wanted.

It was a dagger that was about the same length as an adult's forearm, with a red leather-wrapped one-handed handle, and the blade was just over ten centimeters long.

"Sir, the scabbard will be ready soon, it's a bonus."

Gendry took a silver stag from Lane and returned him a handful of coins.

Silver Deer is a currency whose value is lower than that of Golden Dragon and Silver Moon.

Under normal circumstances, a silver deer is enough to buy a sufficient long sword, but Tob Mott's reputation and craftsmanship make even a dagger with the length of the forearm in this shop expensive. You have to pay with silver deer.

Gendry handed out the merchandise, completed the transaction, and returned to the fire to continue forging the horned helmet.

The owner of the shop was resting on the recliner from the beginning to the end, and he didn't bother to raise his eyes whether the sale of a dagger was successful or not.

All this is like an insignificant one among the countless transactions that this shop usually goes through.

Lan En was very satisfied with this 'ordinary', and walked back with Alia.

"This is for you."

Lan En turned the short sword he just bought, with the hilt facing Alia.

"Your stabbing sword is not bad, but if I want to teach you something, it's better to equip your off-hand with a short sword for parrying."

In fact, every Emperor's Children has a superb and complicated swordsmanship database in their minds.

For them, swordsmanship is like a tool for creating art.

So even though they have little chance to use the flexible collocation of 'rapier + dagger', they will definitely do it.

Lan En's [Memory Deep Dive] every day, except for the two nights when he hammered Earl Steza to death and the two nights when he fought against Dagon, has become a daily daily task.

Even if it is subconscious, no matter whether he can use those outrageous swordsmanship or not, his vision is definitely not low.

The short sword has an advantage over the long sword as a parry sword, because the leverage structure it can form in a sword confrontation is much less labor-intensive than the long sword.

Basically, when Aliya confronts normal men of the same age, she will not fall into a disadvantage due to sword wrestling.

Of course, the premise is that she has used her own skills to deal with the first impact of the long sword swing and entered the stage of wrestling.

"Ha! Thanks!"

Aliya smiled and took the dagger, tied it around her right waist, and fought against the 'Needle' on the left.

She has already begun to look forward to what kind of swordsmanship Lan En can teach her.

Lan En thanked him and nodded indifferently.I originally agreed to teach something, how can I fool you?

But at the same time, his ears quivered slightly, and in a movement that seemed to relax his neck, he glanced behind him to the right.

There is a dark alley there.

And there, several voices were discussing something at normal volume.

They don't know how sharp the witcher's hearing is. To normal people's ears, this is meaningless noise, but to the witcher's ears, this is information.

"The sword on that guy's back, just look at the hilt. No! You can tell how valuable it is just by looking at the silver weight engraving!"

"Beside him is the daughter of the current Hand of the King!"

"Oh, big shot? But what's the matter? We won't touch that girl. In King's Landing, the prime minister can't just let the decent and upright people in this city come out and find out because of his daughter's guard being robbed, right? But how many 10 people! After we’re done looting, we’ll go to another street and hide for a few months, won’t we be done?”

"Hey, he's wearing armor that doesn't look easy to mess with."

"I don't think it's useless. There are ten of us. We dragged him into the alley and beat him with sticks. He definitely couldn't bear it. And he didn't even have a helmet. Maybe a blow to the back of the head was enough to make him faint for a long time. "

A cacophony of voices chattered and argued back and forth in the alley.

Finally, a voice that seemed to be the leader sounded and suppressed all disputes.

"I think we can do it. In the past, we didn't dare to do anything casually, because there were only a few places where the stolen goods were sold, and the gold robe could find them if he wanted to. But now... haven't we just been recruited by our 'noble lord'? "

"Our lord has money now, no matter where it comes from, we have it anyway. And we are keen to collect these strange things. This exquisite sword should be exchanged for a lot of money! "

The tone of voice of the leader is very interesting.

When he uttered the words 'Honorable Sir', he didn't give his tone the emotion that fit the meaning of the word.

On the contrary, there is a kind of banter and ridicule.

If Lan En could describe that tone, it would be like seeing a bumpkin nouveau riche.

If you are rich, you are really rich, and if you look down on it, you really look down on it.

So who is this 'adult' who likes to collect strange things?
Border nobles far away from the royal city?Newly successful businessman?
Lan En was very curious, after all, the goal of this 'adult' coincided with his.

So... "Bang bang" two soft sounds.

At this time, the ten gangsters in the alley looked at the entrance of the alley from the shadows in astonishment.

A tall, silver-haired young man was retracting his palm that had knocked on the wall twice. His elegant posture was like that of a banquet host who knocked on a glass at a reception and was about to speak.

A little girl followed behind him with great interest, and the two walked towards the shadows in the alley together.

"Everyone, I'm a little interested in the 'adults' in your mouth."

While walking, Lan En smiled and untied the long sword strap on his chest, and put the two swords in Alia's arms behind him.

"Can you tell me?"

The atmosphere fell silent.

The original ten people in the alley stared blankly at the intruder.

That was their chosen prey, the prey they should have dragged into the shadows, stunned and stripped naked five or ten minutes later.

But now, under the smiling expression of the other party, they feel that they are the prey.

The first emotion that came to me was shock.

But after the shock, there was a kind of irritation mixed with surprise.

The surprise prey comes to the door automatically, and the one who is annoyed is the graceful elegance of the other party!
In other words - that look of complete indifference!
"You, bang!"

A gangster closest to Lan En was the first to hold the wooden club, cursing and ready to swing it.

But then, before his wooden stick had time to lift above his head, a big hand that was too fast to see clearly hit his face directly!
"Oh!"

"Wow!"

Pressing his head, the back of his head collided with the face of the person behind him.

The person whose face was pressed went limp immediately after this blow, and it was only because his face was pinched by that hand that he didn't collapse into a ball on the ground.

As for the guy who was hit in the face, the blood in his nose was like turning on a faucet.

Now I can only lie on the ground, breathing through my mouth dizzily.

"Whoo! Lan, I won!"

Aliya, holding two swords, let out a small cheer.

"My fault." Lan En didn't look back, a silver deer slipped out of his unmoving hand, and flicked it on the little girl's forehead with his fingers.

The remaining eight people looked numb in front of those slightly shining cat eyes.

"It's a pity, I thought the local gang would be a little more polite."
