Chapter 547 The Sword Talisman
John left the Moore’s house early the next morning, but soon he met a man.
The man was Steven, Faith’s husband.
Steven’s last name was Moore, but he was less important than Faith in the Moore family.
John asked in surprise, “Mr. Moore, are you waiting for me?”
John bore Steven no malice. On the contrary, he was sympathetic to Steven who became a completely hen-pecked husband having no say in the family because of marrying Faith.
John sympathized with Steven’s life.
Steven smiled and said, “John, Faith is too snobbish. If she said something excessive to hurt you last night, I apologize to you on her behalf.”
His smile was sincere and helpless.
John showed a strange look on his face and said, “Mr. Moore, you are worrying too much. It’s not because of Faith that I decided to leave the Moore’s house. I didn’t take what she said to heart at all.”
John wasn’t fragile. No matter how harsh Faith’s words were, they couldn’t hurt him at all.
Steven smiled wryly, thinking that John was pretending to be strong, so he didn’t hurt John’s self- esteem. He said, “Faith’s bark is worse than her bite. Actually, she is kindhearted.”
John remained silent and did not comment.
He really didn’t care what kind of person Faith was.
After a while.
John said, “Mr. Moore, if you came here to just tell me these things, you will have wasted your time. There is no need for you to feel sorry.”
John didn’t know how to explain this kind of thing. If he directly told Steven that he didn’t take Faith’s words to heart, Steven probably wouldn’t believe it.
However, John had a little more affection for Steven.
Because Steven woke up early in the morning to wait for him, and at the same time, Steven had to hide it from Faith. John received this kindness.
Steven took a deep look at John and said, “I am waiting for you here not only to express my apologies to you. I want to give you something.”
“What is it?”
John had a confused expression.
Steven carefully took out an object from his pocket and handed it to John. It was a small sword engraved with runes, which had the same size as a little finger. And it was not sharp and looked like a toy for kids.
“This is a Sword Talisman, which is equivalent to the key to Sword Emperor Mountain. I got it because of luck, and I haven’t used it. You can take it to Sword Emperor Mountain to try your luck.”
As the name suggested, Sword Emperor Mountain was a place left by a powerful sword cultivator who reached emperor-class swordsmanship. The sword spirit was floating there all year round, which was very suitable for sword cultivators to practice there.
There were three major sword sects in the Alps Mountain. They were Spiritual Sword Sect, Ancient Sword Sect, and Ghost Sword Sect.
The three major sword sects were established around Sword Emperor Mountain.
Sword Emperor Mountain was a holy mountain for them, which was jointly managed by the three major sword sects. Disciples in the sects could enter with their identity cards. Besides, the three major sword sects would randomly distribute a hundred Sword Talismans once in a while.
All cultivators in the Alps Mountain could use the Sword Talisman to enter Sword Emperor Mountain to grasp the sword spirit.
Perhaps only the senior leaders of the three major sword sects knew the meaning of distributing Sword Talismans.
Steven got a Sword Talisman by chance before, but now he wanted to give it to John. John was a little surprised and asked, “Why did you give me this Sword Talisman?”
“It’s the compensation!”
Steven felt quite guilty. In fact, he didn’t want to prevent Kate from marrying John. But he couldn’t interfere in Faith’s decision. So, Steven had to make it up for John in this way.
Steven thought about it for a long-time last night. He considered giving John high-level exercise methods, martial arts, or a powerful enchanted weapon, but finally, he thought it was not appropriate.
He thought John could only reach the Foundation Establishment Stage because John’s Gold Core was shattered. So, he didn’t think high-level exercise methods or martial arts could be useful to John. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
It was especially true for an enchanted weapon. Even if John had one. he couldn’t use it, and it would bring him a fatal disaster.
Steven thought hard and finally decided to give this Sword Talisman to John. He believed that if John could grasp some sword spirit in Sword Emperor Mountain, he would be able to protect himself…
If John got nothing, it could only be said that swordsmanship wasn’t a thing for John. But it had nothing to do with Steven. Giving Join the Sword Talisman was his sincerest way to make it up for John.
“Thanks!”
John had long wanted to learn swordsmanship. Only after learning swordsmanship could he make full use of Excalibur. It would not just be a sharp weapon.
So John didn’t refuse it. After saying thank you, he took the Sword Talisman and immediately felt the power of calling from it..
The power should be from Sword Emperor Mountain.
Seeing that John took the Sword Talisman, Steven heaved a sigh of relief and felt less guilty. He said with a smile, “Wish you to become a master of swordsmanship as soon as possible.”
It was just a good wish.
Steven thought it was impossible for John to realize it. But John nodded silently. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and said, “Mr. Moore, you will not regret what you did today.”
After speaking, he strode away.
Steven originally wanted to shake his head subconsciously, but when he saw John’s resolute figure, he was slightly taken aback.
For a moment, he seemed to have an illusion that John wouldn’t be down all the time since then. It could be seen from John’s words and deeds that he was not willing to be mediocre.
And John had indescribable arrogance.
Steven didn’t think such a person would be mediocre for a lifetime.
Then, Steven remembered that John’s Gold Core was broken. He wondered why he had such a bizarre illusion.
Steven shook his head to wake himself up. He took a last look at John’s disappearing figure, turned, and left. When he was about to arrive at the Moore’s house, his expression changed slightly.
Faith was standing at the door and looking at Steven expressionlessly as if she was deliberately waiting for him.
