Chapter 83 [Fairy Tale] He Has a Little Gray Wolf (9)
Reid left the Black Forest carrying a basket full of herbs.
His home is in Red Riding Hood Town.
but……
Ryder lowered his eyes.
Most of the men in Red Hat Town are Red Hat Knights, who receive gold coin subsidies, unlike Reid, who needs to go to the Black Forest every few days to collect herbs and exchange them for gold coins in the Knight Shop.
Reid went home first.
A house made of bricks.
It's very sturdy and is considered a nice house in Red Hat Town.
Because of the feud with the wolf clan in recent years, many things in Red Riding Hood Town have been destroyed, and there are very few houses as solid as Reid's.
This house was left by Reid's deceased parents.
His parents died in the war with the wolf clan.
When Ryder returned home, he happened to meet Mrs. Griffin who had just returned from outside.
His neighbor.
A very kind person, one of the few people who is friendly to Ryder.
"Ryder, going to the Black Forest again?"
Reid nodded, opened the door, and put the basket on his back in the yard first.
"There's a magic test tonight at the entrance of the Knight Academy. Go and try it! Maybe you'll be able to get in this year!"
Almost all the men in Red Riding Hood Town know magic. The Knight Academy recruits students every year, and occasionally there are girls as well.
Ryder's parents were both knights.
But Ryder didn't inherit any of it.
He has no magic and even stutters.
That's what outsiders think.
Ryder lowered his head and said awkwardly, "No, no, no."
Mrs. Griffin looked at Ryder's embarrassment, sighed, and advised: "Ryder, you must not listen to what others say. You are a good boy. Grandma knows it. Let them say whatever they want!"
Ryder's position in the town is awkward, as no teenager is without some magical powers.
Not only does he not have any magic, he has also gone to the Black Forest many times to rescue injured animals.
This was unforgivable in the eyes of the people in the town, if it were not for the sake of Reid's parents and the medicinal herbs that Reid could provide to the Knight Academy.
There's a good chance Ryder will be kicked out.
"I, I know."
"Okay, grandma won't say any more. Go and deliver the herbs. Harris and the others are going to the forest today, so you probably won't run into them when you go. Go quickly!"
Mrs. Griffin sighed and went back into the house.
When Reid heard Harris's name, his already fair face turned even paler.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the blue eyes.
He sighed softly and turned to go into the house.
Changed into clean clothes.
I saw the red cloaks neatly arranged in the closet.
That's his mother's.
Only knights can have red cloaks, which are a symbol of status.
Ryder held out his hand and saw the red flame on his palm.
The flame was not pure red, and the end was a little black.
Anyone who understands magic can tell at a glance.
This is dark magic.
It's evil magic.
A trace of grievance flashed across the boy's blue eyes.
He went out and carried the basket to the Knight's Shop.
Mrs. Griffin said that Harris and his family went to Black Forest today.
This made Ryder breathe a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, Harris came back so quickly.
They happened to meet at the Knight's Shop.
"Harris! You were so brave today. With that arrow, that little wolf would have been crippled if not dead. Hahaha!"
"Huh! Who am I, Harris?" the man raised his head with a proud look. "I'm not a cowardly stuttering teenager. I don't have that damn overflowing sympathy."
"It makes me sick just thinking about it."
