You call this magic?

Not to mention that he was much stronger than Yufei at that time, so protecting a five-year-old child was easy for him.

And what little Yubel was most interested in was sitting on top of the stone, watching Ethan exercise and helping Ethan count, as if this was a lot of fun for her.

Although Ethan found it boring, Yubel enjoyed it, especially when she counted to a hundred or a thousand, she would show an excited expression.

No, I always feel that you are becoming more and more weird at such a young age.

This is not acceptable. The negative impact on children's education is immeasurable.

When little Yubel counted to 1,197, Ethan stopped what he was doing and turned to Yubel.

The little girl failed to count to a hundred and her expression was a little stiff, but she was still too young and her attention was quickly drawn to the approaching Ethan.

Although he was only thirteen years old, Ethan had already grown to over 1.75 meters tall, and his height was even increasing every day. To little Yubel, he was almost a giant.

After picking up the unresisting little Yubel and letting her ride on his shoulders, Ethan spoke.

"Yubel, I heard that you will be attending magic school soon?"

With little Yu Bei'er's talent, she has long been qualified for admission without examination and enjoys certain tuition reduction policies. If all else fails, there is also an interest-free loan from the Continental Magic Association. Her future is truly limitless.

Yu Beier lowered her head, and the little hand holding Ethan's head tightened. Her childish voice was full of determination: "I want to go with Ethan."

"Of course, brother will take you to school."

Apart from Ethan, there was no one else in the village who could take her there. After all, the destination she was going to was the capital of the Central Kingdom, and the road was not safe. Normally, she needed to hire guards to accompany her. But with Ethan around, she could save as much as possible.

The fees those mercenaries charge are quite scary.

And the villagers have long accepted the fact that Ethan is now as strong as a monster.

Since he was eleven years old, Ethan has brought an animal as big as a house back to the village every once in a while to provide everyone with a snack. His strength has long been trustworthy.

"Well, Yubel, you must always stay with Ethan."

"Alas, this child has been clinging to Ethan since she was young. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. What do you think, the child's father?"

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Little Ethan grew up under our care, and the age difference isn't that big. In my opinion, just..."

At the door of Yubel's house, the old couple looked at Ethan and Yufei who were busy loading things onto the carriage. There was reluctance on their faces, but more of it was relief.

"Dad, Mom, are you done yet? Yu Beier is about to leave!" From a distance, Yu Fei's voice stopped her disrespectful parents from whispering.

Eighteen-year-old Yu Fei glared at her disrespectful parents, but there was really nothing to say.

This couple was simply brought up as useless people by Ethan, their "godson".

Although no one said anything, everyone's eyes were as clear as mirrors, and this was all thanks to Yu Beier.

Ethan's grandmother is old, so in order to make it easier to take care of her, they took her home. Now Ethan only goes back to his home at night when he goes to bed.

As for living together completely, it was not that far off. The house was left by Ethan's missing parents. Although he had no feelings for them, they were still his grandmother's son and daughter-in-law, and they were related by blood, so Ethan did not intend to abandon them.

Grandma knew that Ethan would leave this small mountain village sooner or later, and if she still stubbornly stayed at home alone, Ethan would not be able to leave with peace of mind, so she gladly accepted the invitation from Yu Beier's parents.

Ethan was very grateful for this.

"Ethan."

Yufei came to Ethan and carefully straightened his collar.

"Remember, in the beginning, you weren't even half my height?" The girl raised her head with a dazed look in her eyes. "Now, you're so much taller than me."

"I'm a boy, so the title of 'King of Children' will fall into my hands sooner or later." Ethan said with a smile.

"Are you still thinking about this?" Yufei was dumbfounded.

"After all, being the boss means you have to protect everyone, right?" Ethan joked, "From now on, Sister Yufei, Yu Bei'er, and everyone in the village will be protected by me."

Yufei looked at the young man in front of her, and he gradually became the same little figure in the past who was determined to learn from her.

"Idiot." Yufei muttered, then stood on tiptoe and flicked Ethan's forehead. "Kid, you're not strong enough to protect your sister."

This is the truth. Although he now has a certain level of strength and can easily sweep through the surrounding forests, he is still too weak for this world, the demons, and the heroes.

"I know."

"Then go out and let the world hear your name. This has always been my childhood dream."

"Ah."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was heading towards family affection, dreams, and inheritance, the expressions of the parents watching nearby were quite strange.

"It's not the farewell scene I imagined."

"Eh? There's nothing like that between them?"

"Aren't you Yuffie's biological mother? Can't you see??"

"Your own father, didn't you notice it?"

"No, there's still hope." At this time, the little old lady who had quietly appeared behind the couple at some point lowered her voice a lot, "Look at Ethan's feet."

Hearing this, the couple subconsciously looked in that direction, only to see the five-year-old Yu Beier looking at her elder sister with dead eyes, and there seemed to be some hostility in her eyes.

"Yubel... is she only five years old?"

"Here you go again, Dad. How long has it been since you paid attention to little Yu Bei'er's emotions?"

"I, I just gave it to Ethan..."

"Irresponsible, how could I have such an irresponsible husband like you!"

"I think you two are the same," the old lady complained pointedly, but her tone was quite relaxed. "Don't worry about it. Yufei and Ethan are taking good care of the child."

This cannot be blamed entirely on them. After all, the two sides can be said to have exchanged the objects of care. Ethan and Yufei took care of Yubel, and the couple took care of Ethan's grandmother. They did not neglect either of them.

If the two parties had no real legal relationship, it would not be inappropriate to say that they were a family.

After saying goodbye to the villagers, Ethan drove the carriage and leisurely set off for the royal capital.

Judging from the speed of the carriage, it would take about a month to reach the destination.

In theory, it's just in time for the start of school.

Little Yubel seemed to be fine as long as Ethan was by her side. The reluctance to say goodbye to her parents and sister disappeared in just half an hour. She sat in Ethan's arms, looking at the scenery along the way with her big eyes curiously.

But after only ten minutes, her eyelids began to twitch and she fell into a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness.

Isn’t it said that children are very curious about the world? He was so bored that he fell asleep when he went out of the village for the first time. This child is really different.

Half a month passed quickly.

Ethan was not completely idle either. In addition to his idle meditation time, he was also studying some strange things.

His original idea was to amuse the child and show her the ghost way, but this thing is lethal. If the child is accidentally injured, even if he can cure it, he will feel guilty for a long time.

So, he began to study a kind of ghost art without lethality, that is, a ghost art that would eliminate all damage and only have special effects.

All the light effects are the same as those of the regular ghost path, but when it is released, it feels like a breeze blowing on your face, so Ethan named it the illusion path.

But when he really succeeded in developing the magic path and performed it for his children with great pleasure, he suddenly realized that this thing seemed to have practical significance.

Illusion is a technique used to confuse the enemy, and his illusion retains complete special effects. The consumption is almost 0, but it can play a very terrifying role in actual combat.

What's outrageous is that he initially just wanted to set off fireworks for Yubel, and only realized its tactical role after he made it.

It is like planting willows by accident and getting a shade of willows.

"Red Fire Cannon!"

It wasn't Ethan who shouted, it was little Yubel.

She struck a cool pose, her eyes wide with smiles, her eyes full of longing for magic.

Yes, the child thought, this was the magic she would be able to learn in the future.

Ethan rarely saw the child's mood swings so exaggerated.

"Ethan, Ethan, Yubel wants to learn that!" By the campfire, Yubel lay on Ethan's legs, staring at him with her big eyes without blinking, as if she would cry if he didn't teach her.

"Youbel can't learn this now." Ethan couldn't explain the notes. The process of developing his ghost way was like writing code, and the subsequent release was just like writing a function to call the one written before. This was a plug-in that belonged to him, and the magicians in this world could not reproduce the pattern at all.

"Then when can we learn it?" Yu Beier asked with her head tilted.

"When you grow up... well, when you become a second-level magician." Ethan first gave her a goal that was far beyond her previous life, which was to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University. Anyway, he would explain everything to her when she grew up.

A very classic perfunctory approach, but it works very well for children.

"Then Yubel will become a first-level magician and then learn from Ethan!" Yubel's eyes were firm, and there was a smile of eagerness on the corner of her mouth.

The corners of Ethan's mouth twitched. This kid, is he taking it seriously?

They also changed the second level to the first level. Do you know how difficult it is to pass the first level magician exam?

Volume 1: The Death of Frillian (I): Chapter 6: Frillian: Do you want to change your job to become a magician?

Perhaps because it was relatively close to the royal capital, Ethan's carriage did not encounter any particularly dangerous situations along the way. Of course, there were indeed many bandits and monsters, but he did not see any creature that could allow Ethan to use ghost attacks. He solved all of them with just a hatchet.

As a warrior, he may not be as good as those who are trained in martial arts, but he can easily deal with this group of little Karami.

Magic power is not exclusive to magicians. He has long mastered the method of using magic power to strengthen the body.

Of course, these guys didn't even force out this trick.

Just when he thought the carriage could reach its destination smoothly, an accident happened as expected.

That morning, three days before the royal capital, Ethan had driven the carriage for less than two hours when he suddenly stopped.

"Stay in the car and don't move." After instructing little Yubel who was still taking a nap in the car, Ethan turned his attention to a treasure chest monster on the side of the road.

As for why it looked like a treasure chest monster, it was because it had opened its mouth, revealing the bright red flesh and sharp fangs inside.

Of course, there was a person biting in his mouth.

Judging from the lower body exposed outside the big mouth, the person who was bitten should be a petite female magician. She was wearing a snow-white robe, and her gorgeous wand and clean suitcase were thrown on the roadside like garbage.

When Ethan first caught a glimpse of this scene in the carriage, he thought the bitten magician was dead. After all, both the treasure chest monster and the bitten magician were motionless, and it was easy to think that she was probably dead.

But when he got off the carriage, he noticed that both the treasure chest monster and the magician maintained a very steady and long breathing rhythm, as if they were asleep.

Image: "About this", Location: "Images/1734358639-100424293-112453804.jpg"

Wait, fell asleep?

The corners of Ethan's mouth twitched. This was the first time he saw a treasure chest monster and encountered this situation. Is this reasonable?

Ethan did not approach rashly. After all, monsters had endless ways of luring adventurers. Even if a monster appeared and used this method as bait, Ethan felt that it was not completely impossible.

He thought for a moment and slowly backed away.

It's better to stay here. His main goal now is to send little Yu Bei'er to school. It's not worth taking risks for such a stranger.

If he were on his way back to the village now, he might have taken action.

"Okay, let's run away." Ethan analyzed the pros and cons. It seemed that the magician would not die for the time being, so it would be better to wait for the next kind-hearted person passing by to rescue her.

However, just as he was tiptoeing to mount his horse, perhaps because he sensed Ethan's breath or the treasure chest monster suddenly woke up, the pair of legs that were limp outside suddenly began to struggle violently.

"It's so dark, so scary, help me, is there anyone, please save me! It's so dark, so scary——"

Is it really a person?

"Ethan? Who's calling for help?"

At this time, Yubel in the carriage stuck out her little head and looked at the treasure chest monster and the little butt struggling in its mouth.

After a few seconds of silence, Yu Beier spoke: "It's better to leave it alone. She looks like she should be able to come out on her own."

? !

My little ancestor, what's wrong with you?

Ethan then realized that this seemed to be an opportunity to educate the child. The child had already learned to stay out of things that did not concern him before he was even old enough to understand. This was not acceptable!

Little Yubel should be the kind of great and righteous magician who would be looked at with admiration whenever he walked on the street!

It doesn’t matter in private, but you must do a good job on the surface!
