Master Locke actually defeated the level-2 knight, Kotter!

And now Master Locke seemed not to have done his best!

Kerton and the others were petrified. With exaggerated expressions, they felt something was buzzing in their heads.

Just three months at most, Master Locke had only been practicing for three months. He could easily defeat a level-2 practitioner!

Although Kotter was defeated by Locke, he was not discouraged at all. On the contrary, his eyes gradually became moist, and his trembling voice was full of excitement and emotion. “Sir Count, you are not disappointed. Master Locke is really a genius!”

Master Locke was not even 17 years old now. At this age, he can defeat the level-2 knight. There were only a few people like this in Naton County!

As was known to all, James, called the “first genius” in Naton County, was now only a level-2 mage.

Although a level-2 mage was much better than a level-2 knight, according to the performance of Master Locke just now, even if he couldn’t win, he could at least tie!

“Uncle Kotter, are you hurt?”

Locke walked up to pull Kotter up, asking worriedly.

After the battle just now, Locke had a certain understanding of his strength. It should be no problem to deal with the ordinary level-2 practitioners. Perhaps he had the strength of level 3.

Locke could only make a rough estimate. He had no other reference except for Kotter.

“Master Locke, you win.”

His tone exciting, Kotter stood up and shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

“Master Locke is powerful!”

“Master Locke is awesome!”

“Ha-ha, Master Locke wins! Long live Master Locke!”

Kerton and the others on the training ground also cheered up. They were excited and their eyes were burning. They were all happy that Locke had become stronger.

Just as everyone was cheering, a beautiful figure appeared in front of them.

“Miss Athena.”

Kerton said to Athena respectfully. They all knew that their Master Locke was trained by this lady in front of them!

Athena greeted them with a smile.

“I’ve watched the battle just now.”

After stopping in front of Locke, Athena’s beautiful face became serious as she was training. She said slowly, “Although you won in the end, in my opinion, there are still too many flaws and a lack of combat experience.”

Kerton and others were surprised at the place, their expressions a bit stunned.

Just now, the two of them had fought with each other for less than ten moves. In less than ten moves, Master Locke had defeated the practitioner of level 2. How could Miss Athena not be satisfied?

Even Kotter was a little stunned. Just now, Master Locke had done a good job. Was Miss Athena a little harsh on Locke?

Different from other people’s astonishment, Locke was lost in thought and began to recall the whole process of the battle. He knew that since Athena said there was something wrong with his battle, there must be something wrong.

When everyone was sighing at Athena’s sternness, Athena continued, “Just like your ‘sprint’.”

“If Kotter takes a risk and doesn’t choose to defend himself, he chooses to directly pull open your weapon and gather all his strength on the big sword, stabbing directly at you. You will die miserably.”

Locke recalled what Athena had told him and felt a chill down his spine instantly.

Yes, if it was a life and death battle just now, Kotter would have directly deflected his long sword and hit his heart. Under the great inertia, he had no time to change his attacking move.

After a moment’s silence, Kotter nodded his head silently.

Because it was just a practice, he did not pay too much attention to the opportunity to kill his opponent. Instead, he chose a conservative defense. If it was a real battle, it would indeed be a fatal flaw.

“Well, it seems that I still need to strengthen practice.”

Locke shrugged helplessly and sighed.

Seeing that Locke seemed to be a little discouraged, Kotter comforted him, “Master Locke, you don’t have to be discouraged. You have done a good job compared with others.”

“Ha-ha, don’t worry, Uncle Kotter. I’m not a person who can’t stand the blow.”

Locke laughed and joked.

Seeing Locke’s resolute face, Kotter was stunned. The image of Locke before, the stubborn boy, who had never given up in the face of ridicule, suddenly came to his mind.

Master Locke had never changed. He was always like this.

At night, stars twinkled in the sky, and the soft moonlight covered the whole ground.

On the wall outside the castle.

The burning fire crackled. Athena sat next to Locke, quietly watching Locke’s busy figure.

Asclepius was sitting against the wall, staring at the fire.

On the fire, there were two golden rabbits roasted. The oil on the rabbit meat made a sizzling sound, emitting an alluring smell of roasted meat, which was very attractive.

“Boy Locke, is it okay?”

Looking at the rabbit meat, Asclepius asked anxiously, swallowing his saliva.

“Almost.”

Locke replied helplessly while grilling the rabbit meat. It seemed that this was the fourth time that Asclepius had asked him.

Soon, the rabbit meat was done.

Locke tore off a rabbit leg and gave it to Athena. Then he handed the rest to Asclepius. After taking over the rabbit meat, Asclepius started to devour it. Compared with him, Athena was much more elegant. She ate slowly, but her delicate and coincidental face was also full of satisfaction.

Locke took off the second rabbit and tore a rabbit leg for himself. Soon, the three of them ate up all the rabbit meat.

“Boy Locke, let’s not say anything else, I really admire your barbecue skills.”

Rubbing his belly with satisfaction, Asclepius exclaimed. He had eaten a lot of delicious food in his previous life, but Locke’s roast meat was ranked at the top level.

Locke put his hands behind his head and lay comfortably on the ground. “Of course, I’m sure you can’t find anyone in the world who can cook as well as me.”

“You brag, boy!”

Although Asclepius had agreed with Locke in his mind, he still couldn’t bear to see Locke’s smug face.

Under the dim light of the fire, the girl’s face turned red as if she was shy and particularly charming.

“There are many bandit teams around Lister. I want to deal with them.”

Turning to look at the stars in the sky, Locke spoke out his plan. “This will not only increase my combat experience but also solve the financial problem of Lister.”

According to Kotter’s report, although they had robbed more than 10,000 gold coins from the bandits last time, there was not much left after the castle was built and a large amount of food was bought.

So he focused on the bandit teams nearby. It could not only eliminate harm for the people but also bring benefits for himself. It was a win-win situation!
