"The damn kid, do you want to infuriate me?" Roland angrily poured wine into his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, the large barrel of rum was emptied.
Damn it, how could his friend, a hero in his lifetime, have such a stupid and foolish descendant?
In fact, Roland was just strolling around the dock today, passing time with the sailors as usual. But suddenly, a seasick strong man was carried off the ship. With his sharp eyes, Roland immediately noticed the racial characteristics of the man when he was seasick. That's why he brought Aliza back to confirm, but he didn't expect this kid to be such a fool!
Du Chen carefully thought about the whole situation again and felt that Roland probably didn't have any other intentions. After all, both he and Aliza were poor and had nothing worth his effort to plan harm.
Thinking of this, Du Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Roland, please don't rush. It is the law of the Holy Church that slaves cannot cultivate Dou qi, and we cannot violate it. However, I am Aliza's master and can grant him freedom, allowing him to become my warrior follower. In fact, Aliza used to do the same."
Roland looked at Du Chen and shouted, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
"Alright, I will grant him freedom now!" Du Chen just followed the etiquette of the nobles, placing his hand on Aliza's shoulder. Unexpectedly, Aliza panicked and sat on the ground, crying loudly, "Young master doesn't want me anymore, young master doesn't want me anymore!"
Roland and Du Chen looked at each other, Roland feeling annoyed while Du Chen secretly laughed.
Although Aliza was foolish, he had emotions. They had grown up together and spent their days and nights together. The bond they had formed over the past ten years couldn't be replaced by a few words from Roland.
However, a 'Crystal-level' fighter god voluntarily taking care of Aliza, Du Chen had no reason to refuse, right?
"Aliza, the young master doesn't not want you. You should follow this gentleman to learn!" Du Chen grabbed Aliza's hand and pointed at Roland, saying, "Yes, this gentleman can not only teach you Dou qi, but also make incredibly delicious roasted milk cow!"
"Aliza doesn't want roasted milk cow, Aliza wants to stay with the young master!"
Suddenly, Roland laughed, a strange smile on his face. "Damn it, I'm out of patience. Kid, get lost!"
As he spoke, he grabbed Du Chen's collar and spun around in place, just like how Du Chen used to throw balls in his previous life, and threw Du Chen out. "This kid is staying with me!"
Du Chen felt everything spinning, and before he could react, his body was flying up into the sky. When he regained his senses, he was already dozens of meters above the ground. "Mr. Roland, can I come to visit Aliza in the future?"
"When I'm free, don't bother me!"
At the next moment, Du Chen began to worry about how he would land.
Fortunately, when he was gliding through the sky in a graceful arc and reached the top of the arc, a green light flashed by his side, and Mina flew up, catching Du Chen with her vines. It seemed that Roland knew Mina was in this direction, so he deliberately threw him here.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Little handsome guy, what did that lunatic say to you? It seems like you didn't manage to save your strong servant!" After catching Du Chen, Mina didn't touch the ground but flew straight towards the center of the fighter god Island.
Du Chen smirked and sarcastically said, "Professor Mina, it seems like you don't have the right to inquire about everything regarding that lunatic, right? Hehe, you were so fast just now, is that an elven specialty?"
Mina playfully stuck out her tongue and smiled. It was true that she was not very kind when she dropped Du Chen and ran away earlier, but she defended herself, "There's nothing I can do. This is how we do things in our line of work. If one day you abandon sister and run away by yourself, sister won't blame you!"
Heading towards the inner part of the Godfighting Island from the dock, a few miles away was a spacious square, surrounded by rows of statues, including Zig's - these were the statues of the past deans.
When Mina landed on the square with Du Chen, it was crowded with people, all students waiting to report, as well as teachers and instructors maintaining order.
A beautiful elven woman leading a blond boy descending from the sky immediately attracted everyone's attention. Under the scorching gazes, Du Chen felt uncomfortable, while Mina confidently led him around, handling all the registration matters in no time.
Steve and Charlie were both fire-type fighters and would be entering the Valley of Blazing Fire for their studies. As for Du Chen, the odd one out from the Saint Kain family, he was arranged to be in the Water Pavilion. The three brothers were separated, and Du Chen led his servant Harry to the small courtyard he had rented.
After Harry finished tidying up, Du Chen glanced at the plain bedroom and ordered, "You can leave now and find a room for yourself!"
"Yes, master. Your care for me has truly touched this humble servant. Please allow me to praise your..."
"Get out!" Du Chen waved his hand to dismiss the chatty servant. Then he secured the doors and windows, checked his luggage, and fortunately, the hidden marks on it were intact. No one had tampered with the suitcase!
The ram horn warhammer, the necklace, and Zig's misty chain were all here! If the contents of this suitcase were discovered, Du Chen would likely face an irreparable disaster. He had to find a safer place to hide these things!
Du Chen took out three treasures from the suitcase. The warhammer and necklace were easier to handle, as he could hide them on his person. However, the misty chain, when transformed into its metal ball form, was still too big. If he were to hide this thing under his crotch... Du Chen had no doubt that he would suffer from some "unspeakable" illness!
"If only these things could also turn into tattoos!" Du Chen thought of the lotus flower on his buttocks.
Wait a minute, it seems like... I should have...
Slap! Du Chen slapped his own head. "Damn it, I should have thought of this earlier! I'm so stupid!"
Summoning a lotus flower, he used his internal energy to maximize its size. The golden lotus pod and leaves combined together, resembling a small basin.
Du Chen first placed a copper coin on the lotus pod, then focused his mind.
Suddenly, the lotus flower returned to Du Chen's buttocks. He turned his head to look.
Haha! In the tattoo of the lotus flower on his buttocks, there was now a tattoo of a copper coin, and the size of the coin had also shrunk accordingly.
"Master Grape, I praise you!" Du Chen was overjoyed. This method really worked!
Next, the chicken egg-sized ram horn warhammer, the cantaloupe-sized misty chain, the necklace, and some small lock-picking tools were all thrown onto his buttocks by Du Chen.
However, the volume of the lotus flower talisman was not that large when it left his body, so for now, Du Chen could only store these things.
Looking at Du Chen's buttocks, there were now two metal balls, a necklace, and a pack of lock-picking tools on the first flower of the Three Heaven Trigrams (Three point orientation). These items had shrunk in size and overlapped with the lotus flower, looking quite strange.
"Damn it, now I have a place to hide stolen goods!" Du Chen smirked.
Du Chen believed that as the internal energy of the lotus flower continued to strengthen, the size of the talisman would increase, and it would be able to hide more and more things. Maybe he could even fit a few living people on his buttocks!
As he was excitedly experimenting, there was a knocking sound at the door. It was his servant Harry. "Respected master, there are a few guests who want to see you!"
