To be king and magician

"Eh?"

Youser, who was about to take it seriously after hearing what Xia Chuanhu said, was stunned for a moment when he heard the second half of the sentence.

Throwing stones?

Throwing the stone in his hand, Xia Chuanhu explained with a smile: "Youther, do you know what is the most important thing to consider in battle?"

"win?"

"No, it's 【survive】." Xia Chuanhu pointed at Uther's forehead with his finger, "you have to survive first, and then think about winning. If you are killed by the enemy before you win, then It's impossible to win. And if you win it at the cost of your own death, it doesn't make any sense—at least I don't think so."

"Human beings are very fragile. If you die, there will be nothing left. Sacrificing yourself to achieve something great—this kind of thing is an extreme situation. Under normal circumstances, your top priority in battle will always be Only by surviving can we do the next thing.”

"For this, you need to learn how to [defend] and [dodge]."

Xia Chuanhu raised the small stone in his hand: "I will control my physical ability to the level of a human being and throw these stones at you. The venue is limited to this training ground. It is not difficult to block them with the wooden sword in your hand. Well, it’s good to roll over to avoid it, or find a shelter to hide.”

"It's all about going as far as you can and going for 10 minutes before I hit you in the head or chest, or I hit you three times."

"This is the first thing you need to learn, and the rest will wait for you to pass this level."

(I see, is this training for me to survive the next battle?)

Uther understood the situation quickly.

"I understand, Brother Merlin, please begin—"

"Snapped!"

A stone hit Uther in the head.

"Okay, you're dead." Xia Chuanhu tapped him on the head, "In battle, the enemy will not wait until you are ready before starting a fight with you. You must be mentally prepared for the enemy to attack you at any time."

"Yes!"

"Then do it again."

"Yes!"

Snapped!

Another stone hit Uther's forehead.

(This kid... seems to have practiced a bit.)

36. People who need my help

The training time passed quickly.

The two people who started training at about nine o'clock in the morning were already noon when they were stopped by Ash who came here, and the two of them spent almost three hours on evasion and defense training.

Seeing Yuser, whose body was covered in marks from Xia Chuanhu's stones, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Xia Chuanhu without saying a word.

(murderous look!)

For a moment, Xia Chuanhu felt as if there was a knife on his neck.

"I didn't use heavy hands, the strength I used was normal human strength." Xia Chuanhu explained by raising his hands.

"I know."

Otherwise, it won't just take a look.

Sighing slightly, Ash put his hand on Uther's body, and after drawing a few runes with his fingers, Uther, who was still dirty, became clean in an instant, as if he had never experienced Xia Chuanhu's training .

"That's all right, let's go and have a rest. I brought you baked potatoes and water from the dining room. After eating and resting, we will start magic training."

"Yes, Master!"

After bowing slightly to Ash and Xia Chuanhu, Uther ran towards the resting place in the training ground.

Afterwards, Ash looked at Xia Chuanhu: "How is Uther's situation?"

"Well, there should be no problem in another four or five years."

"so slow?"

"After all, you threw me a layman who can't fight at all. Even if I don't need to worry about the basic quality, Uther can't fight at all, and he has zero combat experience, so I have to teach him from scratch. .”

Xia Chuanhu explained: "I just made his movements a little more flexible in the morning, and I only used human-level strength. There is still a long way to go before he becomes strong enough to lead humans to defeat goblins." let's go."

"sorry to bother you."

"It's okay, it's what you asked anyway—compared to this, have you had lunch yet?"

Ash nodded: "I ate it before I came here."

"What to eat?"

"Goo~~~~"

Seeing Ash's silent appearance and the sound coming from her stomach, Xia Chuanhu knew that she hadn't eaten at all.

No, you should still eat a little, right?As I said just now, she went to a dining place. Given her reputation among humans, humans would definitely prepare food for her. She would still eat after a bite or two, right?

But I just ate that normal food in the morning, and now I turn to eat the feed, it will be somewhat difficult to swallow.

"You... let's go, let's go back, I'll make you a meal, just as I'm hungry myself."

"Is it possible?...No, no, this will be too much trouble for you, not to mention that I am a fairy, in fact, eating is not necessary, just bear with it for a while—"

Before Ash finished speaking, Xia Chuanhu grabbed her wrist and dragged her into his space door.

Not far away, Uther, who was about to take a break after eating half, raised his head to look.

"Eh? Where are Master and Brother Merlin?"

Why did the two disappear after only a short while?

——————————————————————————————————————

In the room of Ash, Xia Chuanhu, and Trott, after pressing Ash semi-strongly by the dining table, Xia Chuanhu stroked his sleeves: "Wait there for a while, I will make something simple thing."

"Tiger, I really don't need to trouble you..."

"Then take it as I have done too much and I can't eat it myself, and you help me solve part of it."

"Well......"

Now that Xia Chuanhu has said so, there is no way for him to refute, after all, what Xia Chuanhu said is indeed reasonable.

The kind of food that humans eat, which is no different from feed, is difficult for Xia Chuanhu to swallow. If he wants to eat, he can only do it himself, and the part he can't eat must not be wasted.

Ash felt that he could avoid this waste.

"Then...then I will trouble you, Tiger. Thank you."

"you are welcome."

While talking, Xia Chuanhu had already processed the leftovers from the morning and started cooking.Because there are really no ingredients, and what can be done is quite limited.

(Since Ash is in charge of teaching Uther in the afternoon, I might as well go out to find something to eat in the afternoon. I remember that there are wild animals in Fairyland, right?)

Although those [wild animals] should be fantasy species no different from monsters, meat must be eaten after all, and there are also edible plants that need to be found.

(How to make me look like Shennong.)

Xia Chuanhu was thinking while turning the contents of the pot.

At the same time, looking at Xia Chuanhu's back from behind, some memories of Morgan also appeared in his mind.

The memory she received from Morgan was 600 years ago, so she can't remember many of them clearly for such a long time, but looking at Xia Chuanhu, those blurred parts are bit by bit Thinking back.

At the same time, Ash also realized something that she hadn't experienced for a long time.

She is being taken care of by Xia Chuanhu.

The last time she was taken care of like this was in her childhood, when she was taken care of by members of the long-disappeared Rain Clan.And after the Rain Clan was exterminated, they embarked on the road of the savior, and Ash, who started his pilgrimage, was never taken care of again.

Instead, she has been taking care of others, goblins, and even Britain and the world.

The identity and power of the savior made her unnecessary to be taken care of, and no one else would think about taking care of her.

But in front of Xia Chuanhu...

"Tiger."

"Hmm, what's up?"

"It's a bit sudden to ask...how do you see me?"

The movement of his hands stopped for a moment, and Xia Chuanhu turned around: "Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"Your attitude towards me is something I have never experienced before. For me who met you for the first time, I want to know why you trust me so unconditionally and do these things for me. You should be out of respect for me Impression will face me with such an attitude?"

"Ah, this..."

Xia Chuanhu turned back.

“[People who need my help].”

"that's it?"

"Otherwise? What do you think I think of you?" Xia Chuanhu snapped his fingers, "You asked me to help you when we first met, and I was the one who brought you back drunk last night. I made you breakfast in the morning, and now I’m the one who cooks for you—basically, I’ve been helping you all the time, right?”

"In the eyes of others, you may be a worthy savior of faith, the most invincible paradise fairy, but to me, you are just a woman who needs my help."

Snapped!

Putting the rice bowl in front of Ash, Xia Chuanhu sat across from her: "Okay, let's eat. By the way, I will go out in the afternoon to find some other ingredients. You can also look forward to tonight's dinner. "

Ash is confirmed.

In Xia Chuanhu's eyes, he is not a savior, nor is he a paradise fairy with a mission.

In his eyes, he was just an extremely ordinary woman who needed his help.

"Well. I'm looking forward to it, thank you, Tiger."

37. Call from the North

The lack of supplies in Britain is similar to what Xia Chuanhu thought.

After all, the entire British Isle was piled up by the corpses of goblins, and the original continent was wiped out by Cefalu long ago. Of course, there are no remnants of all species in this world.
