Roddy's scream was not loud. He immediately noticed his gaffe and subconsciously covered his mouth with his hand. But his eyes were fixed on the screen - if he could look away at this moment, he would not be a man at all.
Fortunately, Nicole finally finished dressing and walked out slowly. She glanced at Roddy who was still stunned and said calmly: "What was your name just now?"
How dare Roddy tell the truth? Could he tell Nicole that I had X-ray vision just now, and I saw it when you were changing clothes and wearing underwear
Fortunately, Nicole didn't intend to pursue this issue, and just said calmly: "You come with me today."
After saying that, without waiting for Rody to say anything, he walked towards the door of the room first.
Rody let out a sigh of relief and could only follow behind.
Nicole's back was right in front of her, her charming body swaying in all her movements, but no matter how big or small Roddy looked, the see-through function just now could no longer be reproduced.
"What the hell..." Roddy sighed.
The Tulip family is indeed the family of the empire's military gods, and the family's martial ethos is truly extraordinary for a wealthy family. Just the frighteningly large martial arts arena in the family was enough to make Roddy sigh.
This martial arts performance field is already as big as the swordsmanship class at Imperial College! You know, the swordsmanship class in the academy can accommodate hundreds of people practicing at the same time!
This huge room is more than twice as tall as an ordinary room. On both sides of the room, there are two rows of weapon racks, which contain all kinds of weapons, from ordinary accessories to spears and spears used on the battlefield. .
The surrounding walls seem to be made of Huagang stone, and they look extremely hard. This is no wonder. When some warriors were practicing here, they would inevitably lose their weapons when the fighting was fierce. With that kind of strength, ordinary walls would have been knocked down long ago. .
When Roddy followed Nicole into the martial arts arena, there were already many people practicing in the arena. It seems that those people are the bodyguards and warriors of the Tulip family.
A bearded guy stood on the sidelines with his hands behind his back, looking back and forth with bright eyes.
As soon as Nicole walked into the martial arts arena, someone immediately saw her. Many guards who were practicing immediately stopped and bent down to salute Nicole - judging from their salute movements, they were all formal warriors.
You know, in the empire, there are strict distinctions between various people. A person's identity and the etiquette he performs are all determined. When a formal warrior salutes his elders or masters, he gently covers his heart with his right hand and then bows. This is standard samurai etiquette—appropriate when dealing with superiors or elders. Of course, the equal salutes between samurai are different.
Rody followed Nicole nervously to the edge of the martial arts arena. The bearded man strode over immediately, gave a solemn salute, and then said seriously: "Miss! Why are you here today?"
Nicole's face was calm, and she just sighed: "It's not for him!" Carter looked at Roddy, who was standing behind Nicole with a strange expression, and immediately gave a deep salute and said seriously: "Master Seth!"
Nicole said calmly: "His Majesty's assessment will be in a few months, and I'm really worried. So I have to urge him to give him a good workout. Mr. Carter, I hope you can give him a good workout!"
Carter's eyebrows seemed a little helpless, but he still nodded solemnly: "Yes! I will definitely live up to Miss's expectations!"
Behind him, Rody couldn't help but lament in his heart: So early in the morning, he didn't even take a bite of breakfast! While he was thinking about it, he couldn't help but think of the basket of delicious food that the pretty little maid brought last night, but unfortunately he didn't touch a bite at that time.
"Stop it all!" Carter, the bearded man, turned around and shouted.
All the warriors who were practicing immediately stopped their movements, then strode to the side of the field and quickly arranged their teams.
Roddy looked at the walking pace and movements of these people, and his heart moved: These guys seem to be soldiers. But this thought passed in his mind for a moment, and then he said with relief: Yes, the Tulip family is the leader of the army, and of course the guards in the family are arranged by the army.
Carter shouted two brief orders, and the warriors were neatly arranged in two rows. Everyone's standing posture was strictly in accordance with the standards of the army. Staring directly, expression solemn.
"Miss Nicole, Master Seth, shall we start now?" Carter asked in a questioning tone.
Nicole nodded slightly, then turned back and glanced at Roddy lightly, and said softly: "Behave well, my brother!"
Roddy heard the warning in Nicole's words, and had no choice but to take a few steps.
Carter hesitated in his heart - he had been in the Tulip family for many years, so he naturally knew what Master Seth was like. Although he did not dare to say it, he knew very well in his heart - that Master Seth was not a soldier at all. ! His strength is simply rubbish, a first-level samurai can easily knock him down. But how to train this young master today really makes him a little embarrassed.
Practice seriously, I'm afraid those warriors under your command will embarrass that idiot if they accidentally take action. After all, Master Seth is his own master. In that case, it would be a bit inappropriate to say it. Although Miss Nicole asked her to train him seriously, Miss Nicole would probably not be happy if Master Seth really made a fool of himself.
You know, most of the bodyguard warriors in the family don't think highly of Master Seth. Although they, who came from the military, were full of respect and admiration for the Tulip family, Master Seth's daily behavior really made them feel that they could not have the slightest respect. In the eyes of most people, this Master Seth was the oldest born. The purpose is to discredit the proud name of the Tulip family.
But Miss Nicole is different. This lady is outstanding in every way. He deserves to be called both good and beautiful, and he is worthy of being a member of the Tulip family. Moreover, this young lady is usually nice to everyone, and her appearance is incomparably beautiful. Those young warriors have long respected Miss Nicole as their goddess. Many people privately believe that if Miss Nicole is not their daughter, She should be the worthy heir of the family.
If that idiot young master makes a fool of himself and makes that respected lady unhappy, that is something none of these young warriors want to see.
"Fante! Get out of the queue!" Carter pondered for a moment, made up his mind, and shouted softly.
A young warrior standing at the end of the queue immediately took a stride forward.
This warrior looked very young. Hearing Carter call his name, his face was full of excitement. You know, in front of Miss Nicole, Instructor Carter didn't call anyone, but only called himself out of the queue. He was so excited. As you can imagine - the two rows of warriors behind him didn't say anything, but everyone looked at him with envy.
Carter said loudly: "Fante! Today you are sparring with Master Seth!" After saying that, he walked to Fante and whispered in an imperceptible voice: "Be careful when you strike, you know?"
Fente's body tensed upright and he immediately said loudly: "Yes!"
Nicole glanced at the young warrior and suddenly said softly: "No! I ask you to do your best! My purpose is to train my brother well, so you must not do it just because he is my brother. But if you show mercy, you will let me down, do you understand? "
Fente looked at Nicole with eyes full of reverence and said excitedly: "Yes! I will definitely not let the lady down!"
Carter couldn't help but wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips.
Forget it, why bother talking to make Miss Nicole unhappy? Besides, if I insist on letting Fente preserve his strength, I'm afraid Master Seth will also feel embarrassed.
Fortunately, Fente is the youngest warrior under his command, and also the one with the lowest strength. He just passed the warrior examination this year and is currently only a first-level warrior. Come to think of it, no matter how weak Master Seth is, he won't lose too badly, right? As long as he didn't get hurt, it would be fine, but with him watching from the side, it should be fine.
Roddy curled his lips. Unlike Nicole, he could see the strength of this young warrior at a glance.
Nicole is a magician and does not understand the strength of the samurai. But Rody himself is a standard warrior. Although he failed the test, even Mr. Qiu said that his strength had reached about the level of a second-level samurai. The young warrior in front of him was no match for him.
But Roddy is not a fool. He certainly understands Carter's intention in finding such a guy to spar with him.
Alas, it seems that Seth is really no ordinary idiot. How could the great Tulip family have such a guy...
Under the urging of Nicole's gaze, Roddy reluctantly walked step by step to the center of the martial arts arena and stood face to face with such a young warrior.
Fente was extremely excited. As a young man, in his prime, on the first day when he was transferred from the army to the Tulip family as a guard, he saw Miss Nicole from a distance. At the first sight, I was so shocked that even though I never dared to have any extravagant hopes, I already respected Miss Nicole as a goddess. At this moment, with Nicole's instructions, how could he dare to preserve his strength? He had already forgotten all about instructor Carter's instructions.
Fente took a long breath, slowly drew out his long sword, swung the sword blade towards the lower left, and nodded to Rody - this was the etiquette before fighting between warriors.
Rody smiled bitterly in his heart, and also drew out his sword and gave a samurai salute. Then he looked at his opponent quietly, smiled and said, "Come on."
