The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes
Vol 3 Chapter 448: knowledge is power
The young people quickly became acquainted with each other after using the battle just now as a common language.
Originally, Tristan was very respectful to Gawain, the knight, but Gawain persuaded him for a while before letting him talk to him as an adventurer.
After the three of them drank the wine again, the world's management of drinking is not so strict. For ordinary people, being able to make money and drink is half of a man's maturity, and the other half is to find a wife to give birth to a baby.
Tristan asked, "And there's another brother, why didn't he come?"
Lancelot took the opportunity to pour the wine to prevent Tristan from seeing his expression, while Gawain smiled and said, "I'm eating meat over there."
For a while, Isolde of the Tristan family held a dining basket in one hand and a low table in the other. She put the low table on the grass, then took a plate of roasted chestnuts and a small plate of roasted sausages and a few forks cut out of wood from the basket and placed them on the low table.
Just as Gawain and the other three sat down to chat, Mordred, who was holding a glass of light honey water as a drink, came over while burping.
As soon as Mordred sat down, Tristan said, "I can't see that this little brother is so strong that he can fight in such a heavy armor."
Then Mordred's face darkened.
Although there was a small oolong, the young people quickly chatted happily again.
Lancelot asked Tristan, "You are good at archery, and you must be good at swordsmanship. Why don't you become an adventurer with such good skills?"
Tristan, who was peeling roasted chestnuts, shook his head and said, "My uncle and I used to be adventurers for a few years just to eat, and I don't want to do that kind of life of dying."
"Many people in our factory were adventurers or soldiers before, and many of them were injured more or less. After they came here, they could sleep peacefully under the protection of the high wall."
"Just like today's large group of fire monkeys, now we can use the fence to fight them slowly. If the villages that were a little weaker in the past would be breached, then the grain, livestock, and even children would be eaten by them."
"The life here is not bad now. I usually feed the chickens. If a monster strikes, we will go to the city wall to fight back the monster. After the fight, we will drink and celebrate. It's not a let down of this strength."
While talking, Tristan peeled the roasted chestnuts. These chestnuts were picked up from the forest in autumn, and people often used them as snacks.
Lancelot picked up a chestnut and ate it, and said at the same time, "The world is so big, don't you want to go and see it?"
"Maybe so." Tristan put a chestnut into Isolde, "I will have a child with Isolde in a few years, and then I want to go out with the caravan to have a look, and at the same time Make some money and send your children to the knowledge city to study when they grow up.”
At this time, Gawain, who had just stopped Mordred from eating grilled sausage slices and put a grilled chestnut in her hand, said, "Study in Knowledge City is very expensive. Everything is expensive there, only the sea breeze is free."
Now Tristan's face began to darken. Even the knights said that studying was expensive, so it would be difficult for him, a common man, to afford it.
Mordred, who had eaten the chestnuts, said, "If your strength is similar to that of Brother Gawain, it will be easy. The bonus of the monthly exam can guarantee a normal life for more than a month."
"Really?" The one who was surprised was Lancelot. He just passed the trial of the blue ice and snow fairy in the pond and was given a long sword. He is now in the stage of inflating his self-confidence.
Although he thought that there was something wrong with the snow fairy, the ice magic released by the fairy was in the blind spot for the attack directly in front of her.
"Really." Mordred replied, "But you have to go to school first. The conditions for admission are to have a recommendation from a baron or above, or pay a large registration fee to the school, or pass the entrance exam."
Lancelot ruled out the first two options and asked, "How was the exam?"
He didn't want to go to school himself, but wanted Guinevere to go, because the teacher Linda hired said she was very talented.
Mordred introduced: "The exam mainly examines two basic subjects, writing and arithmetic, as well as other elective subjects such as swordsmanship, magic, and painting. Different schools will consider the scores of each subject comprehensively when they are admitted."
Tristan turned his head and asked Isolde, who was sitting beside him: "Why don't we take the test too. I heard from the teacher at night school that your grades are not bad."
Isolde smiled and said, "If you want to go, try it."
Tristan was obviously a little moved, and he was a little absent-minded during the next chat.
Because the people in the factory had to work the next day, they went back to their respective homes at ten o'clock in the evening to rest. There were only people from the fleet left in the square. After staying on the boat for so long, they needed to relax.
At around 6:30 the next morning, the sound of the wake-up call wafted over the residential area.
There is only one clock in the entire factory, and three people with inconvenient legs take care of it in three shifts. There is a sundial outside the room where the clock is placed, and the person on duty at noon is responsible for setting the time. Every morning and commute, the person on duty will blow the trumpet.
The breakfast at Tristan's house was a soup made from a piece of bread and a bowl of dried fish. Tristan was distracted while eating breakfast this morning, and a spoonful of the soup almost poured into his nostrils.
His uncle Mark, who was sitting opposite Tristan, only had one arm~www.wuxiaspot.com~, so Isolde would break bread into the soup when he helped him prepare breakfast.
Mark, who was eating breakfast, quickly found out what was wrong with Tristan. He asked, "Tristan, what are you thinking about if you don't eat well?"
Tristan replied, "Uncle, I want to work in the factory early."
Mark frowned, he didn't speak, just stared at Tristan.
Tristan was a little uncomfortable staring at him, and he said, "I want to do something that pays more."
Mark looked at Tristan, who was behaving abnormally, and at Isolde, who should know what was going on next to him, and asked, "Have you killed people?"
"No! No!" Tristan hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, while Isolde blushed and lowered his head.
Tristan said cautiously, "Isolde and I are going to try our luck in Knowledge City."
"Are you serious?" Mark's expression became serious.
Tristan nodded firmly and said, "Yes, uncle. The teacher at night school said that if you want to live a good life, you must have a civilized mind in addition to a strong body."
Mark frowned again, then silently ate the breakfast in front of him.
Seeing that Uncle was silent, Tristan and the others also kept silent.
After a silent breakfast, Mark left the house and walked to the workshop where he now works every day.
