Hearing the voice, Karp turned around and saw a girl of about his age sitting in the seat next to him. The light freckles on her pretty face made her look very energetic.
'Did she see what I just wrote?'
Karp felt his face getting hot and felt a little embarrassed. He had never been popular with the opposite sex in school.
It seemed like this girl was praising herself just now?
"Are you talking to me?"
He asked still unsurely.
"Of course! Who else can I tell? I saw you on 'Silent Guardian'. I'm also a user of that forum. Oh, I hope you don't mind me seeing your post!"
"Haha... It's okay. This isn't a diary. I sent it out to other people to read. As long as you don't think my writing is bad, that's fine."
"That's not true! You're right. My father also told me that everyone who tries their best for our world is a hero. I also think that the online worship of the Dawn Association is too much. Even the people in the Dawn Association think it's too blind."
When Karp heard that the girl shared the same opinion as him, he was immediately overjoyed and felt an inexplicable excitement and sense of accomplishment.
"You think so too. I just came back from the hospital and saw many disabled soldiers. They are also warriors fighting on the front lines. Although they don't have as strong power as the hidden guardians, they are also respectable protectors."
The girl smiled and nodded vigorously, obviously agreeing with it.
"By the way, how do you know that the people of the Dawn Association think this is too blind?"
"Uh... speculation! Of course it's speculation. Think about it, they are powerful people who have transcended ancient and modern times. They have experienced many vicissitudes and possess extraordinary wisdom. How could they not see these things that even we can perceive? It's just that their purpose destined them to do some things in public. It is said that they have corresponding agreements with major countries."
Garp asked in a low voice, surprised.
"Really? Will the major countries of the World Alliance not allow the Dawn Association to escape exposure?"
He could easily imagine some governments' fear of such super organizations.
"No, it is said that the Dawn Association unilaterally expressed that they do not want too much exposure. I guess in addition to the association's own traditions, they also took into account the feelings of the people in power."
“Oh…I see…”
As Cap and the girl discussed with each other, they became familiar with each other unconsciously, and they shared each other's interests and personal understanding of certain things.
"By the way, my idols are members of the Silent Knights. Strictly speaking, my top idol is the Knight Commander who has never shown his face!"
"Ah? Uh... a very, very good idol..."
The girl's expression was a little stiff, and what flashed through her mind were the inhuman official knights of the Silent Knights and the terrifying knight leader who founded the training camp.
"Hahaha, right? There's just too little information about the Knight Commander on the Internet. I don't even know if he's a man or a woman, fat or thin. Who is your idol?"
Cap asked the girl excitedly.
"Oh? There are many strong people in the Dawn Association who are my idols. I can't really say who I like the most. If I have to say, there is someone I am most afraid of."
The angle of this question was very new to Karp. He had never felt that anyone in the Dawn Association was scary.
"Who is it?"
"Well, there probably isn't much information about him on the Internet, but it is said that within Dawn he is a man privately called 'The Great Emperor'..."
"The Great Emperor? Could it be that some ancient emperor was also from Dawn? This is so cool!"
The girl looked a little embarrassed.
"No, it's not what you think... Never mind, I won't explain this."
The bus arrived at another stop. This was the stop where Cap was going to get off. He stood up reluctantly and suddenly realized that he had not asked the girl's name yet.
"I'm such a fool for not asking you your name. My name is Cap, Cap Norling. What's yours?"
The girl reached out and took Karp's phone, typing quickly, then handed it back to him, causing Karp's heartbeat to speed up a little.
"You should get off the bus, Cap!"
After the girl's smiling reminder, Cap said goodbye and got off the bus, then stood at the intersection with his mobile phone in hand, watching the bus go away.
When you open your phone, a new phone number appears in the address book.
"Annie Belle...what a beautiful name!"
Karp felt dizzy and wondered if he was in love.
On the bus, a tall man walked over to where Cap had just sat and sat down.
"Why, didn't you try to take back the magic steel just now?"
The man's voice was very casual and very soft, as if he was talking to himself, but it made the girl next to him look embarrassed.
"Dad...when were you here..."
“I’m always here.”
These words made the girl pause, it was simply bullying.
The man turned his head, looked at her and smiled.
"This kid is really good, better than I expected. He has good intentions and yearns for justice. What's more valuable is that he has the courage to take action for it."
Although the girl had a good impression of Garp, she felt itchy when she thought of magic steel.
"Dad, I want to confirm one thing!"
"What?"
"Isn't Garp your illegitimate son?"
“…”
The tall man looked at his daughter helplessly, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
He couldn't tell his daughter that he gave away the magic steel ingot that he had intended for her because her mother had made a mistake with the box, right?
If he dared to tell this to others, his wife would definitely beat him up and drain him dry.
The wooden box used a simple Axion technique of "insulation" to prevent the emission of special energy fluctuations, which resulted in my careless wife realizing she had sent the wrong item after returning home yesterday.
The husband has to take the blame because of his status in the family.
Hearing his daughter's angry joke, the man replied weakly.
"Don't worry, if you fall in love with Garp, it won't be unethical."
Even though she didn't have any idea of the matter, Annie-belle couldn't help but blush and look embarrassed when her father said that.
"Okay, be generous. I'm ready to guide Garp into the dawn. If nothing goes wrong, he should be my first student. After all, we are close friends!"
There was a hint of pride in the man's tone.
Annebelle was originally sulking, but when she heard this, she suddenly turned to look at her father with a hint of incredible surprise in her eyes.
"Dad, you...you are already! Already a master of magic?"
There was a time when Annebelle hated her parents very much because they suddenly became very busy in the previous two years, so they sent her to boarding school and asked her uncle's family who lived near the school to take care of her.
This made her feel very hurt inside. Later, the sudden outbreak of the alien crisis involved her city. She almost died of illness during her escape. If Garp's mother had not been there at the time, Anniebelle might not have been able to see her parents.
Later, her parents found her and brought her to a safe secret place, then revealed the secret. Only then did Annie-belle slowly untie the knot in her heart, and she gradually came to understand the greatness of the Dawn Association that was more or less known to the outside world.
Being qualified to be called a "mentor" in the Dawn Association means that one has enough strength and experience. Experience can be accumulated relatively speaking, but it is extremely difficult to reach the level of a magic master or a silent knight or Skywalker.
It was definitely a great surprise that his father could become the master of magic. It also meant that their family might gradually develop into a magic family with a long history like the Dawn Family in the past.
Of course, only a handful of powerful families have survived to this day, because the mission of Dawn is both noble and cruel, but this cannot erase this supreme glory.
"Yes, I have awakened my magic power in the Dawn Hall under the witness of the heroes of the past generations. I am now qualified to accept students!"
The man's voice was full of emotion, and the whispered conversation between the father and daughter seemed inaudible to the others on the bus.
"I don't plan to recruit disciples directly from within the association. I prefer to refer to the practices of some of the predecessors of the Dawn of the past and discover people with potential power from ordinary people. Garp is my designated candidate. Oh, by the way, I have already signed you and Garp up for the Silent Knights' basic training camp. I originally wanted to sign you up for the mid-term training camp as well, but your mother said that if you do that, you two might not survive..."
Annebelle's head suddenly became a little stiff...
"Dad, Dad...I..."
"Don't be too happy. Do you know who is in charge of the basic training camp this time? Hahaha, it's Lord Baru! The leader of the Silent Knights! He's such a busy man that he only shows up at the training camp once every few months. You guys are lucky!"
Annebelle suddenly felt her hands and feet cold, and her entire neck and scalp were numb.
