No job: Check the cards, Loki, are there any problems with the cards?

"Let's find a secluded spot to spar. If I win, you take me to the Holy Land of Swords."

"What if you lose?"

"Then I will keep that secret for my teacher for the rest of my life."

"It doesn't seem like a good deal at all."

Luo Qixi felt like she was being tricked.

"Are you scared, teacher?"

A slight smile curved Rogge's lips.

"A provocation tactic?"

"Hmm... Although it's a terrible plan, it works very well for me. As a teacher, I can't back down when faced with a student's challenge. I accept your challenge."

Luo Qixi was quite confident in her strength as a Water Saint-level magician.

Then, the two went outside under the cover of night.

On the grass.

Loki and Roger each distanced themselves and got into position.

Rogue held a wooden sword, while Loki held up a magic wand.

"Teacher, if you don't use your full strength, you might lose."

"Hmph, that kind of thing? How could that be? I'm a Water Saint-level magician and an A-rank adventurer. How could I possibly lose to a child like you?"

"If you underestimate your teacher, you'll suffer a terrible defeat!"

Feeling immediately underestimated, Luo Qixi let out a soft hum to express her dissatisfaction.

“So next… Teacher, I’m going to begin…” Before Luo Qixi could finish speaking, she saw Rogge in front of her suddenly move.

With a whoosh.

A blur of light instantly pressed against his face.

then……

Bang!

No one knows what happened that night, only that the next morning some villagers passed by.

I accidentally discovered what appeared to be a puddle of urine left by a small animal.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking.

On the table in the Grellatt family's house, there was a letter.

Lilia, the cleaning maid, was the first to discover the letter. Realizing the urgency of the situation, she immediately rushed into Senis's room.

"Master, Madam!!"

"Something terrible has happened! Young Master Rogge... he eloped with Loki!"

When Senis learned the truth, she covered her mouth in disbelief and almost fainted on the spot.

at the same time.

Rogge had already followed Loki to Roya City, where he was greeted by a bustling metropolis with vibrant flowers and lively streets.

Perhaps it was because it was the first time he had traveled so far from home.

Therefore, Roger looked around excitedly the whole way, while Loki looked completely bewildered, as if his soul had been drained.

Luo Qixi, clutching her two braids, kept muttering to herself, "Why? Why is it...?"

During our sparring session last night, she thought she was sure to win, but then she struck with her knife.

She just...

Before he could even see what the other person was doing, he was sent flying backwards.

She didn't even know what was happening.

All I remember is that everything went black before my eyes, and then I collapsed to the ground.

When she came to her senses, she not only found herself hit by a water magic spell that required no chanting, but also discovered that Roger had carried her away overnight.

Even now, Luo Qixi fully understands how she could possibly lose to a five-year-old child.

I am a Water Saint-level magician.

Although the magician couldn't defeat a swordsman of the same level, his opponent was just a five-year-old child.

After realizing that she had been hit with a water magic spell without chanting, Loki almost became depressed afterwards.

Even so, Loki kept her promise and traveled with Roger.

result……

The two had just arrived in Roya, the first town in the territory of Fetoia, and were preparing to buy horses to continue their journey.

He was arrested on the spot.

Paul caught up with them on horseback overnight.

Without saying a word, he packed up Roger and Loki and took them home.

No one expected that this flawless plan would fail in such a dramatic and absurd way.

This was thus declared a failure.

The main reason was that, after careful analysis, Rogge realized he had underestimated the connections his father, Paul, had in the Fituia region.

Chapter 14 Father-Son Showdown: Roger vs. Paul.

...............

The atmosphere at the family meeting in Bouyena village was solemn and heavy, like the prelude to a storm.

Paul, Senis, Rudius, and Lilia's family sat down in neat rows.

Roger and Loki, who were being watched like prisoners by their family, sat together with their heads down, looking like criminals on trial.

Luo Qixi was already trembling with fear. To put it mildly, this was a farce; to put it more seriously, it was a crime of child trafficking.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Paul asked sternly.

“Yes, Loki, why did you do this? No matter how much you like Roger… you shouldn’t do something like kidnapping a child.”

Feeling misunderstood, Luo Qixi quietly defended herself: "I didn't kidnap anyone. I'm a victim too."

Senis frowned: "So...you eloped?"

Luo Qixi's face flushed instantly, and she hurriedly waved her hands, gesturing, "No, it's not like that! That kind of thing... he's still a child, how could that be!"

At this moment, Roger stepped forward: "Dad, Mom, this is my own decision, and it has nothing to do with Teacher Luo Qixi. Teacher and I are truly in love."

"We already have a child..."

"........."

Everyone fell silent.

"???"

Luo Qixi.

Just as the atmosphere became extremely awkward because of this not-so-funny joke, Rudeus suddenly raised his hand and said in an innocent tone, "Actually, I overheard something last night! It was Roger who used something to blackmail Professor Loki."

Immediately, all the questioning gazes fell on Roger.

Rogge narrowed his eyes, his dangerous gaze fixed on Rudius: "So... it was you who betrayed me? I knew it was Old Deng who acted so quickly."

Rudius grinned slyly: "Likewise! That's right! I'm the one who betrayed you!"

"Ok?"

Roger suppressed the urge to punch the guy, took a deep breath, and then bowed to the Pauls.

"I'm so sorry."

"I'm sorry to have worried you, but I want to go to the Holy Land of Swords to train in the Sword God Style. Please grant my request."

"I see..."

Paul was the quickest to accept it; he stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

Senis frowned, her face filled with worry.

No matter how outstanding Roger is, he is still just a five-year-old child, and she is really worried about him.

But Roger's attitude was firm. He earnestly said, "I'm all grown up now. Please don't worry about me. Please believe me."

………………

Paul and Senis exchanged a glance. Paul spoke first: "You want to go to the Holy Land of Swords, um... I have no objection."

Senis panicked: "Darling! This isn't what we agreed on!"

At this moment, Paul displayed the demeanor of a head of the household, waving his hand to interrupt her, and then continued to look at Roger: "But you are still too young."
