Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 847 829. Rules and objectives

With Pericles's mansion as the core, his staff is constantly active, building momentum for Alcibiades to enter the political arena and rushing to contain the plague.

But none of this has anything to do with Lann and Cassandra.

The two of them were actually neutrals in the big era environment of the Peloponnesian War.

 They had their own personal relationships in both Athens and Sparta, and they all helped at some point, but that was all.

It’s just that Fubai seems to have become very busy recently because of these things.

 “I have to help Aspasia!”

The healthy brown-skinned little girl was holding a wooden bowl, gluing all the pickled olives and oil juice inside with barley bread, then stuffing it into her mouth.

Lan En looked with interest at the little girl who had been busy for a while and had no time to eat. Cassandra was sitting on the other side, her strong and graceful legs crossed.

 “Now you have become an indispensable ‘big shot’, Fubai?”

 “I can’t tell.”

  After all, this is a small team brought together by a little girl.

"We are asking for information for Aspasia. We have heard about everything in every corner of the city of Athens. After all, how can two people who talk in secret care about the homeless kid on the street corner who is too hungry to move?"

 “Don’t worry, Cassandra.” Fulber himself didn’t care at all.

"I followed what you taught me before. Now I am the leader of a group of orphans! I have to think about making money for this group of mouths! If the child opens his mouth to eat, he will have a big appetite."

The barley bread was so dry that it took a lot of effort for Ferber to swallow it.

“We sometimes sneak into other people’s houses to steal things, such as some papyrus and clay tablets. Aspasia said it is very useful, but sometimes we are discovered by others and beaten.”

 Lan En looked up and down at Fu Bai's dress.

 Speaking of this, Fubai's expression dropped a bit.

Cassandra next to her put her elbow on Erlang’s knee and supported her chin on the back of her hand, speaking seriously.

"Is that why you are anxious to learn fighting skills?" Lan En nodded clearly.

Weapons of this era mostly used only a leather belt to tie the sword grid around the waist, and that was it. The tip of the sword's blade is exposed.

“We can only earn so much by working for Aspasia.”

 “.Okay, adventurous spirit.”

Fauber went on to introduce the business of his small team, appearing enthusiastic and proud.

“I can teach you how to fight, but don’t use a sword.”

"Yes!" Fu Bai said firmly, "Teach me how to use the sword, Lan En!"

 Kassandra pinched her forehead and smiled bitterly, because it was obvious that Fulber learned this adventurous spirit from her.

“Last month, a boy was seriously injured and died.”

"The plague can't catch up with me! I can run as fast as the wind on the roof! And I remember what you said, this disease is spread by small bugs, and I rarely have physical contact with others. The same goes for small animals. "

"You are just a child yourself. The situation outside is very chaotic now, and the plague is rampant again"

 “But it’s also dangerous, Phoebe.”

 For warriors who fight with solid movements on the plains, there is no problem in carrying weapons like this.

 But for Fu Bai, who has to climb up and down, raise his legs and bend down from time to time, it’s...

 Especially for light mobility, she definitely doesn't wear very good armor.

　　When the time comes to climb up the wall, your legs are bent, and the dagger is stuck directly behind the knees.

 “I’d better teach you some punching and kicking.”

Lan En spread his hands and said.

Fauber curled his lips: "But fists can't hit an enemy wearing armor!"

"Then add this." Kassandra took something off her left wrist and threw it to Phob.

 The little girl hurriedly caught it. It was a wristband-like thing. The little girl moved the mechanism inside slightly, and then a sharp blade came out with a 'clop' sound.

Just by popping up the mechanism, it can probably be stabbed into the human body.

"This is.?"

"Hidden sword." Kassandra waved her hand, "Take it for self-defense. It's a very concealed tool."

"how about you?"

“Lan has already dismantled this thing. He knows the blueprint of this thing completely. I’ll make another one later.”

 “Woohoo!” Fubo was very happy with this little thing, “Thank you, Cassandra!”

“Just remember to place the blade on the back of your hand, otherwise your fingers will be cut off when the blade comes out.”

  The falconer gives ‘instructions for use’ to the new equipment given to the little girl.

 “Of course, of course.” Fu Bai waved his hand nonchalantly. "Isn't this something that can be seen at a glance? I'm not a child anymore, so there's no need to be so verbose."

 “Whoa. Click!”

The mechanism of the hidden sword is very simple, so Fubai put it on his hand directly after thinking about it twice, and let the blade retract and pop back and forth.

 “This kind of weapon goes well with fists and feet!”

“Yes, it goes well with fists and kicks. It is powerful enough to kill people.”

Lan En looked at Fu Bai who was having a good time and suddenly said in a deep voice.

The deliberate re-pronunciation of the last word made the smart little girl hear a different flavor, so Fubai slowly retracted his hand, the smile on his face faded, and he looked at the witcher.

"If you can't survive, then stealing and snooping for information are all understandable behaviors, Fubo. In order to survive, this is blameless. But."

 Lan En's eyes stared at the little girl seriously.

“I taught you the skills, so that you and those street children no longer have to steal for the sake of life, but instead learned to fight and learn the techniques of taking life.”

“With these technologies, your reason for ‘for life’ is no longer valid, Fubo.”

“Now, you may even switch from burglary to burglary and murder.”

“You know my attitude towards these things, and you also know that I taught you these skills, so I will also consider myself responsible for your actions.”

  “.You know what this means, right?”

Looking at Lan En's eyes, Fubai bit his lip and nodded.

That means: if they really do what the witcher says, then the witcher will take action to 'discipline' them.

Just thinking about that kind of scene, Fu Bai felt his skin getting cold in this forty-plus-degree environment.

 “Set rules and goals for those kids, Fubo.”

 Finally, Lan En warned this smart, kind, and adventurous little girl.

“Set a rule that they cannot disobey, and make their goals higher than ‘living barely’ or ‘living by any means necessary’.”

“You gathered homeless children because you saw them being bullied, and you gathered them out of kindness and empathy. Don’t let yourselves become bullies.”

 Finally, Fubai left with a thoughtful expression.

 It seems that she should be able to organize her waif organization to become more complete in the future.
