Chapter 55 Gift of Knife
"You say."
Su Ming was carrying a long sword, wearing a gray robe and looking thin.
He was very patient with this girl.
"Brother Ming, why are you so powerful?" Leah asked very bluntly.
Su Ming just smiled when he heard it.
I was a killing god in my previous life and a sword god in this life.
I am considered a half-double-god fierce man.
Should I tell you this secret too?
Impossible.
Su Ming would not reveal it even to Ji Yao.
"Persist."
Su Ming thought for a moment.
Just said two words calmly.
In fact, he himself did not believe this answer.
Persist?
Persistence can change too few things.
Talent is enough to crush everything.
A waste with one-star talent, no matter how hard he tries, can't match a genius with ten stars.
An orphan without family power can't compete with the young masters of those big families.
This world is made up like this.
But...still have to persist.
Even if hope is far away, even if the probability is very small.
Still have to persist.
Because as long as you persist, there will be hope.
Without persistence, there will be no possibility.
These are the two extremes of possibility and impossibility.
In his previous life, even if Su Ming was forced to die, he insisted on not handing over the anti-path divine ring and chose to perish with them.
So he was reborn.
This is the reward for persistence.
Su Ming chose to share this experience with her.
Perhaps it was just two insignificant words that could not bring her immediate results.
But when she heard these two words, she nodded seriously.
It seemed that she had firmly remembered these two words in her heart.
If it were a human, he would definitely think that Su Ming was just an excuse to get by.
And Su Ming did think so.
But for the natural and pure half-orcs, there are not so many twists and turns in their minds.
Leah naturally took these two words as Su Ming's real answer.
And this is exactly her advantage.
Leah felt a little profound, her eyes were serious, but she still seemed to understand.
She knew that it might take her many years to understand what true persistence meant.
Once the village was massacred, she was homeless and confused every day.
But now, she has a direction to move forward and is no longer confused.
"I know, I will work hard in the direction you said!"
Her cat ears trembled slightly, and she seemed to be full of energy and stood up.
"Finally, I have one thing!"
Then, she bowed fiercely.
"Brother Su Ming, please accept me as your apprentice!"
"I want to become as strong as you and learn your skills!"
"Especially the sword you used to kill the black-robed human, it's really... too handsome."
As she said that, she seemed to drool.
It was as if it was not a move, but some kind of delicacy.
Su Ming heard it and smiled indifferently.
"Haha, accept you as a disciple?"
"Sure."
"But I have to remind you that humans are very evil."
"We will eat all kinds of creatures."
Su Ming's smile became more and more evil.
Like the devil Satan, getting closer and closer.
The sense of oppression was getting stronger and stronger.
Leah felt a chill down her spine.
"Ming... Brother Ming, don't scare me!"
She was a little scared.
But Su Ming was serious.
"I'm not kidding."
"Humans are scary. We will eat orcs."
"Orcs like you are our favorite in the human race."
"The names of the dishes I can name are fragrant braised duck neck, crispy cat ears, raw roasted eagle legs, tiger skin spiced chicken feet..."
Listening to these names, the bloody production process came to Leah's mind.
She was so scared that her eyes turned red.
It was so scary.
The giant snake killed the orc villagers and ate them raw. How could they be made into dishes!
It was so scary.
"Then... then I don't want to become your apprentice. It's too scary."
"I don't want to go to the human world."
"The forest is more suitable for me!"
Her words were full of tears.
Su Ming's smile faded, but he was overjoyed in his heart.
It was so much fun to tease this little girl.
However, what he said was indeed half true and half false.
In the human world, orcs are not welcome.
If he took her back, she would definitely be looked down upon by all parties.
It would cause a lot of trouble.
And there are indeed perverts among humans who like to eat orcs.
Although they are very rare, they do exist.
If he took her back, her worldview would definitely collapse and taint her pure heart.
Su Ming didn't want to cause so much trouble, so he used this method to scare her away.
However, Su Ming was not completely heartless.
He took out the pretender scroll from his personal space.
At the same time, there was also the black crystal dagger of the man in black.
"I can't be your master for the time being."
"But I'll give you this skill scroll and dagger."
Su Ming said and handed it over.
Leah killed the corpse of the giant snake shedding its skin and indirectly saved her life.
You can't just show your appreciation.
You can't just fool around because they are simple.
Besides, this can also be considered an investment.
The principal of No. 1 Middle School once gave him a strong marrow pill and a pair of snakeskin black clothes.
This is an investment the principal makes in himself.
And now that I have resources, why can’t I invest?
Su Ming has now become an investor.
Leah is a good seedling. She will grow her own fruit today. If she can become a high-level killer in the future, she will become a powerful fighting force on her side.
That is your own cause.
It can be said to be a gamble.
The black crystal dagger was originally high-grade gold.
Now, it has been upgraded to platinum mid-grade by Su Ming.
The new name is, Stone Silence Dagger.
Moreover, there are no level restrictions.
Leah took it and scanned it.
"Platinum...Platinum level!"
Her eyes were shining and she was very excited.
Su Ming nodded.
"Yes, this knife is very sharp, you have to use it carefully."
"And this scroll needs to reach level 20 and the pretender can practice it."
"If you can reach the second rank, you can change your job to become a pretender."
"If you can learn this skill...it means you have truly learned to persevere."
"Maybe we can meet again then."
Su Ming said and paused.
He himself was not sure whether he would meet again.
But Liya completely trusted Su Ming's words.
She held the scroll and the black dagger tightly, her eyes full of contentment.
"Yeah, okay."
"I will definitely persist and make you impressed, Brother Ming."
"I want to become stronger and become your apprentice!"
She was very excited.
Looking at the sky, the rain has dispersed and the sunshine is shining, warm and pleasant.
Take another closer look and look in front of you.
The thin young man in gray robe disappeared without knowing when.
She was left alone in the forest.
She was where she was, her eyes looking lost.
Putting away the scroll, she pulled out the dagger.
"Now...what are you doing?"
She felt a little lonely and lonely.
The minds of half-orcs are the same as those of humans, so they also feel bored and lonely.
But she was an optimistic person and quickly cheered up.
Moreover, she was already very familiar with life in the forest.
This is the most suitable world for her to grow up.
"Kill the beasts and level up!"
She made up her mind.
Then, she began her journey of leveling up.
With Shi Ji's dagger around, he can kill wild beasts with twice the result with half the effort.
No one knew that she actually stayed in the forest alone and continued to level up for a year.
I walked through almost all the surrounding forests.
So much so that when all the wild beasts around saw her, they were frightened out of their wits.
The new Beast King will be born here.
…
Su Ming teleported back to the Tianta Club.
When I came to the mission hall, there was no one here now.
After all, the new crowd has passed and the normal flow of people has now returned.
"Just right, it's convenient to hand in the task."
Su Ming said coldly in his heart.
