40 The Reason for Becoming a Magic Swordsman

"Yes, you are currently in Miss Yaxi's room."

The maid replied respectfully.

"Like this..."

Ivette slightly relaxed. Fortunately, this cheap master wasn't so heartless and didn't let her sleep outside directly.

After a moment, Ivette felt that the exhaustion was a little better before getting out of bed.

The discomfort on her body made Ivette frown slightly. Looking down, she found that the casual dress she was originally wearing was gone and was replaced by another set of white casual dress.

Although it could be worn, the size was still a little smaller compared to her clothes. It was a bit awkward to move her arms, just like wearing a noble dress.

Was this dress also Miss Yaxi's?

The maid guessed what Ivette was thinking and said:

"Miss, your dress was dirty. With Miss Yaxi's consent, I changed you into Miss Yaxi's dress. Yours was sent for washing."

Ivette: "..."

Just by visiting, she not only delayed Nanali's time for practicing swordsmanship but also slept in Nanali's bed and wore Nanali's clothes.

Although she and Nanali didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, it seemed that she owed Nanali a lot of favors invisibly...

"What time is it now?"

"It's already afternoon, miss."

"It's time to go back."

Ivette sighed: "After going back, I still have to write a letter to Dad and explain the situation to him... I don't know what Dad will think after knowing."

But for now, Ivette didn't regret it much.

Walking out of the room with her maid, Ivette just wanted to find Lane and Nanali to say goodbye when she suddenly noticed a very fragrant smell wafting everywhere in the mansion.

Ivette froze in place and subconsciously started to salivate.

But soon, Ivette suppressed it with her firm will, turned her head to follow the source of the fragrance, and saw Lane just coming out of the kitchen with two plates of food in his hands. Nanali was sitting at the dining table, holding two... sticks? She was struggling to pick up the food in the plate.

Lane stepped forward to help but was stopped by Nanali with a blushing face. He could only fold his arms and watch aside, looking at Nanali playing with the sticks helplessly.

What was this?

At this time, Lane noticed Ivette and said with a smile:

"Awake? Just right. Come and have a meal together."

Ivette shook her head: "No need. I..."

"Grrrumble - "

A growling sound from her lower abdomen interrupted Ivette's words, making a light blush rise on Ivette's little face.

Lane continued with a smile: "Have the meal here. Just right, I have something I want to ask you. And you also have something to ask me, don't you?"

"... Um, OK."

Because the fragrance lingering around her nose didn't disperse for a long time, Ivette, who usually didn't care much about food, was actually somewhat tormented. So she simply followed the steps given by Lane.

Coming to the dining table, Ivette sat opposite Nanali. Looking at Nanali who was still playing with the sticks, she thought for a while and said:

"Miss Yaxi, thank you."

Nanali's movement of playing with the chopsticks paused for a moment, then she raised her head.

When seeing Ivette's sincere expression, Nanali turned her small face away:

"What's there to thank? I just don't want a dirty fellow in my mansion. Don't misunderstand."

Seeing this, Ivette smiled slightly.

Why did she suddenly feel that Miss Yaxi was actually easy to get along with?

Lane served the afternoon meal in front of Ivette and handed her a knife and fork, then sat down at his own position.

Ivette looked at the knife and fork in her hand, then at the sticks in Nanali's hand, and couldn't help asking Lane:

"Master, what are those two sticks for? Are they also used to practice swordsmanship?"

"Uh... Those are chopsticks. They are just for picking up dishes and have little to do with practicing swordsmanship."

Saying that, Lane also picked up the chopsticks. His posture was much more flexible than Nanali's.

"Chopsticks?"

Ivette was puzzled for a moment, but she didn't ask further. After all, she wasn't interested in the history or anything like that of chopsticks.

These chopsticks were also made by Lane with magic in his spare time.

Now that there were chopsticks, could things like hot pot... be tried?

Ivette took a small bite of the dish with the fork and felt the excitement on her taste buds. Her eyes also lit up.

From childhood to now, it was the first time that Ivette had the desire to bury her head and stuff food into her mouth.

It could be said that even at her grandfather's birthday banquet, she hadn't eaten such delicious food!

After taking a few more bites of food quickly and lightly, Ivette turned her gaze and looked at Lane, starting to observe Lane's posture of holding the chopsticks and picking up dishes.

At this time, Nanali could also pick up dishes with chopsticks, but the movement was still a little clumsy. After watching for a while like this, Lane turned his head and met Ivette's gaze: "Ivette, what's wrong?"

"Um... Master, can you give me a pair of those chopsticks?"

"Well, OK."

Although not understanding why Ivette suddenly became interested in chopsticks, Lane still immediately got up, went to the kitchen and brought another pair of chopsticks for Ivette.

Ivette took the chopsticks but didn't use them. Instead, she silently put them into her arms and continued to eat with the knife and fork, making Lane even more puzzled.

After finishing the afternoon meal, the two maids, Darrie and Daisy, came forward to bring the empty plates and tableware on the dining table into the kitchen. Ivette's maid wasn't idle either and followed to help in the kitchen.

Ivette wiped her mouth slowly, then asked Lane:

"Master, you said you had something to ask me? What is it?"

"Oh, actually, I've always been curious. Why do you insist on learning to become a Magic Swordsman?"

The inheritance of Magic Swordsmen has actually been broken for a long time. Many people nowadays don't even know what a Magic Swordsman is. There are no words related to Magic Swordsmen in the books of the Hedley Empire.

Even Lane knew about a Magic Swordsman friend and learned about things related to Magic Swordsmen by some coincidence.

After that friend died, if nothing unexpected happened, Lane would be the last Magic Swordsman, and not even the main profession.

But when Ivette heard the words "Magic Swordsman" for the first time, she had a big reaction. It could be seen that Ivette knew about this profession and might have a considerable connection with it.

Ivette said:

"Many people know that our Odice family is a veritable Knight family. Even the marquis title was obtained by our ancestors in the identity of knights through achievements."
