Full-Time Wizard: Starting with Harvesting Wheat

"I've run, I've finished!" Olga collapsed to the ground, unable to contain her excitement, and rolled around on the ground like a child.

To still have so much energy after exhausting oneself is a talent in itself.

"It took more than five hours until the last person finished running," Olivier said, munching on bread, his cheeks bulging. He looked extremely rough, but he had a very simple, rustic charm that made the people of Lanxi Town feel especially close to him.

He announced that the boys should go home for lunch, preferably to rest, and then gather in the square at 3 p.m.

He himself went out into the streets and alleys to visit friends from ten or twenty years ago.

The warm afternoon sun shone on the square, and when the boys gathered again, the enticing aromas of fine wine and delicious food wafted from every household.

Long wooden tables were neatly arranged in the center of the square, and the clinking of bowls and plates could be heard, indicating that the banquet was being prepared in full swing.

Olivier counted the number of people. Despite the morning's battle, not a single person was absent in the afternoon. He believed that even if the others did not become knights' squires, with such a tenacious will, they would succeed in anything.

"Guys, are you looking forward to the party tonight?" he asked with a genuine smile.

No one answered; they were all on high alert.

"Alright." Olivier gave an awkward laugh. "Looks like I'm the only one looking forward to it."

He then said seriously, "Next, let's begin the swordsmanship test."

Everyone was on high alert.

"Here it comes." Karazhan nervously scratched his arm. His straight thrust, guided by Roy and aided by the mercenary Perland's secret potion, had already achieved a 50% hit rate and successfully appeared in his skill bar.

Roy didn't understand why he was so nervous when the decision was already made, so he followed Karazhan's gaze, which kept drifting into the distance.

When he caught a glimpse of that beautiful figure, even he couldn't help but swallow.

Her coarse linen robe was inconspicuous in the crowd. Her light brown hair, like uncombed fibers, was casually tied back, with a few stray strands falling beside her cheeks. Her facial features were soft, and she pointed in this direction with her slender fingers, smiling silently, her eyes bright like stars in the night sky.

In the instant she tilted her head back slightly, her slender neck was completely exposed, and her profile was full of youthful innocence and vibrancy.

"This is..." Roy realized that he had never seen her before.

"Hmph, I'm going to show Mary my most handsome side," Karazhan declared confidently.

So this is Mary.

In Roy's eyes, the girl wore no makeup whatsoever—no concealer, no lip balm, no eyeshadow; the blemishes on her face were clearly visible.

She is definitely not as good as those female anchors in my previous life who used heavy filters and posed seductively in front of the screen.

But that unadorned youthful vigor is as natural and vibrant as a flower blooming in the morning.

"Mary is mine!" Karazhan growled in a low voice as he saw Roy freeze in shock, his fangs showing.

"Okay, okay," Roy replied perfunctorily. He was only thirteen years old and not yet old enough to be talking about marriage.

However, I was indeed momentarily amazed.

Just then, the line dispersed, and it was Karazhan's turn.

He took the training wooden sword from Olivier, his expression solemn.

The wooden sword was held upright in front of him, but unfortunately the wood couldn't reflect light, otherwise it would have surely reflected his resolute gaze.

He started with basic swordsmanship. Karazhan was quite talented in swordsmanship, and his basic swordsmanship had reached Lv.1 (66/100). He wielded the swords with a variety of moves, including horizontal slashes, downward slashes, thrusts, and sweeping strikes. His movements were powerful and his footwork was quite solid, which made Olivier take notice.

"This is a rough gem." He gave it a very high evaluation.

Just as he thought the Karazhan presentation was about to end, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and at that moment, a murderous aura emanated from him.

The young man lowered his waist and gathered his energy, the air around his body suddenly tightened, and he stomped hard on the ground with his left foot, sending pebbles flying. His figure shot out like an arrow, and the sharp whistling of the sword blade tearing through the air was particularly piercing!

This sword strike was quite beautiful. Karazhan's indomitable spirit and almost murderous determination perfectly demonstrated the essence of a straight thrust!

The boys remained calm, all intimidated by the imposing presence.

"You... are very good." Olivier was also slightly stunned. To have mastered swordsmanship at such a young age, he already had the potential to compete with the strong.

Undeniably, this is a knight's seed!

Olivier decided to strongly recommend the young man to the lord.

Karazhan exhaled "Shhhh," emerging from the eerie state. He had just felt the air around him stop flowing, as if he were in the deep sea, unable to breathe.

However, it was precisely because of this state that he was able to perform perfectly.

As if he hadn't heard Olivier's comment, he eagerly and cautiously turned his head away, trying not to let his sweetheart notice.

Seeing the sparkle in Mary's eyes and her gaze frequently shifting to him, Karazhan's lips twitched, almost bursting into laughter.

He thought tonight was the perfect time to confess his feelings.

brush--!

Roy's spinning slash drew a crescent moon-like sword light in mid-air. The sword light was beautiful and its shape was extremely smooth, representing the closest possible performance to perfection.

Karazhan's smile froze on his face, as if he had been betrayed by a comrade, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

"The Spinning Slash is a very difficult move to learn in swordsmanship, yet you were able to use it so cleanly and decisively, it's truly..." Olivier praised without reservation.

Karazhan turned into a grayish-white stone statue with a sizable gash on its forehead.

"Sophie, what's his name?"

Mary asked her companion with curiosity, her tone full of admiration.

Karazhan is split open from the middle, much like the Great Rift Valley in East Africa.

……

The people recruited are already quite clear; they all have the opportunity to become knights' squires in the future, so naturally, we should try to curry favor with them.

Karazhan's parents were overjoyed to receive gifts from their fellow villagers, including cured meat, fresh vegetables, and a long-treasured vintage wine. The gifts weren't necessarily expensive, but the sentiment was there, and Roy felt the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

As for him, since he had no parents, the townspeople all sent their children to get acquainted with him. Even though he was 13 years old, not far from the marriageable age, several young girls came over and boldly asked if he had any plans to get married.

The people of Lanxi Town are so open-minded.

Roy politely declined their offers and began devouring the dishes at the banquet.

Among them, Soram's Tavern serves the most dishes, after all, they are professionals, fast and reliable.

Several chickens were plucked and roasted over a fire. The women kept a close eye on the side being roasted and would turn the chickens over from time to time to prevent them from burning.

The most tempting dish wasn't the chicken, but the whole pig skewered on a tree trunk and spinning around on the fire. The whole pig, which had been roasting for several hours, had its skin oozing oil and its meat exuding a wonderful aroma; it was almost fully cooked.

Roy knew that once the pig was ready, Olivier would be the first to eat it, followed by him and Karazhan; the three of them would be the main characters of the feast.

By the way, what about Karazhan?

He searched everywhere but could not find him.

During the search, I bumped into a girl who was looking anxious.

"You are...Roy!" Roy had become a celebrity, and the girl recognized him quickly.

She frowned and asked, "Have you seen Mary?"

Roy looked around but didn't see Mary.

He then roughly understood what had happened.

It's quite possible that Karazhan went off to pursue love.

In this ever-bright night.

He thought for a moment about how to prevent the girl from disturbing the two of them, creating space for Karazhan to confess his feelings and spend this romantic night together.

After a moment of silence, he made a fierce expression, gritted his teeth, and said to the girl.

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
