Chapter 78 A Stronger Heart (1)

...

Lar had a nightmare.

It was a dark night five years ago, and the time was shrouded by the goddess of night. All around, all under the darkness, seemed so dark and terrifying.

Lar's mother held her young sister in one hand and grabbed Lar's hand with the other. In front of her was her father's tall figure and a long sword in her hand. A group of demon dogs surrounded their family of four.

The night was deep, and under the darkness, the monster's bloodthirsty malicious intention seemed to have covered the surroundings with a layer of blood red.

"Mom, I'm hungry, I'm afraid..." My sister's weak voice sounded, and her mother looked sad, but she carefully comforted her.

"Liya, I'm about to arrive in Rennes. I'll have food soon, so it's safe."

My father Will Ichijin was silent. The fighting spirit on his body was extremely weak, but he was still firmly protecting the family.

The luck of the four family is not good or bad. When the magic dog surrounded their family, they also discovered a cave at the same time. Will let the mother and son enter the entrance of the cave, and his father Will guarded the entrance and faced the magic dog's impact all night.

My sister, Lea, fell asleep soon after, but Lar and her mother Sophie did not sleep all night. He and her mother watched Will fight back the impact of the demon dog again and again this night, and their fighting spirit became weaker and weaker.

Lar admitted that he was frightened and could not sleep until the next day when the sun rose and the light of the goddess of glory shone on the whole world, the demon dog group finally retreated. However, their father Will was exhausted and guarding the entrance of the cave with his sword on his back. He was half-kneeling, but he never got up.

The militia patrol in Rennes discovered this lucky and unlucky family. From then on, there were three more people in Rennes, including brother Lar, sister Lar, mother Sophie, and father Will was buried forever in front of this cave entrance. Every year, Lar would bring his sister to worship his father.

Lar hated him, he hated the monsters, and his father died overnight under the impact of the demon dogs. It was not until dawn that he found that his father had only one hand, half of his legs, and only half of his abdomen left. He didn't know how his father persevered until the end.

But he knew that if his father could abandon him and his mother and sister, with his professional strength, he could have walked to Rennes Town safely.

Lar cried, as if crying had dried up all his life, and also cried away all his courage. He became as timid as a mouse in the days to come. He was afraid, he was afraid of the monsters outside Rennes, and he was even more afraid of what should his mother and sister do after his death. He did not dare to join the militia regiment.

Until recently, her mother Sophie fell ill and her family lost most of her income. Lar could not find any decent, decent, or high-paid jobs in the town because of her timidity.

It seemed as if the sky had fallen overnight. The 8-year-old sister was very well-behaved, but she always quietly hid in the corner of the house to wipe her tears. On that day, Lar, who had eaten up the last little bread at home, had 5 years later, Lar, 17, gritted his teeth and joined the militia regiment and became a new recruit.

Everyone in the entire town of Rennes knows that the militia is the most dangerous job in the town, but it also has the highest income and requires the simplest job, including food, drink, weapons, and a regular and rich food, clothing, meat, salt, daily necessities, etc. every month.

After all, this is work at the cost of life.

Lar used to hate being a soldier, even a militiaman.

Because his father was driven away by the noble master of the Ain level by the noble master's knights and militia regiments, and it was still in the dark night.

My father was a mercenary, a powerful professional mercenary, but he escorted the family to the nearest town of Rennes and was still dead.

Later, when Lar grew up, he gradually understood the truth, and with the pressure of life, he joined the militia two months ago. After two months of training, he followed the militia into the Demon Hunting Day for the first time yesterday.

But he was also frightened. If Wang Xiu hadn't helped him, he might have died at the hands of these low-level monsters. The best result would be that after he returned to Rennes Town, he would have been driven out of the militia by the Barth Knights.

Such a weak behavior will only drag the militia back.

Fortunately, Wang Xiu's help made him do well in this performance, but on the way to retreat, he encountered a lonely demon dog, and was targeted by it. Lar also climbed up the tree. He was already desperate and felt that he must be dead. Uncle Vite appeared and saved him and brought him out of the Shadow Forest.

"No, no! No..." Lar dreamed in his horror that he fell from a tree, and the magic dog jumped up, just like the horror of a magic dog pounced on his father five years ago.

"Brother, brother..."

Lar was awakened by fright and found a pair of small hands gently patting his face.

He grabbed the little hands, sat up, and looked at his sister Liya's thin face with sweat.

"Sister, sister...it's you."

"Brother, you're having a nightmare, you're fine, come and have a sip of the broth."

Lea smiled on her face, and her hands handed over a bowl of hot broth from the table behind her.

Lar took the broth and drank it voraciously.

"Brother is so amazing. Yesterday, Demon Hunting Day killed five monsters. Uncle Vite sent a pound of meat and two pounds of bread, saying that this is part of your trophy."

"Five, five? Yes, yes..." Only Lar himself knew that three of these five monsters were given to him after Ace was beaten to him after he was near death.

"By the way, brother, Brother Ace said that the militia converged in the afternoon and asked you to go after you wake up."

"Have a meeting? Yes, every time the Demon Hunting Day is distributed, sister, when is it now?"

"It's noon, brother, go quickly."

Lar hurriedly jumped out of the bed, put on his worn leather armor, picked up the heavy sword inherited from his father, and rushed to the training ground of the militia regiment in the town.

He became a monk and trotted along the streets of the town. The sword in his hand was quite heavy, but thinking about the spoils he would get, he had more strength out of thin air. At this time, he felt much lighter with his sword on his back.

When Lar arrived, all the militia soldiers had arrived. Lar entered and stood in the team. There was a row of chairs on the training ground. The Knights Bart, Deputy Commander of Witt, and Captain of the Archer Team Diana were all sitting on it.

Half an hourglass time passed.

The mayor of Rennes, Melos, and the tax officer of Rennes, sent by Baron Taronis, Lord Nibert, who was also present one after another.

Rennes is the fiefdom of Baron Taronis, but it is not the only fiefdom. He has a better fiefdom in the town of Taronis not far from the Iron Pass. It is close to the city of Iron. It is much more prosperous and safer than Rennes. It is also the main fiefdom and permanent place of Baron Taronis. The family castle is built there.
