"The wine is very tasty!” Darryl complimented as he gulped down the entire cup of wine.
"Vou..." Ford was tempted and started to be impatient. "Let me taste it..."
"No, Master Ford.” Jewel hugged the wine bottle and took a step back. "Master Ford, you've already eaten my food for free. How can you be so shameless to drink my wine for free too?”
“You... You..." Ford was so impatient and started sweating. He had not drunk any wine for ten years. Ten years, a whole ten years!
Which hero did not like wine? All these years he wished for wine. It would be worth it to just take a sip and die there.
"Teach, I’ll teach. TH teach all my sword techniques to this young man! Give me a sip now, quickly.” Ford was desperate as he was panting with his beard raised "I'll teach the entire set of Celestial Swordsmanship to him, is that alright?"
“Good!" Jewel clapped her hands. "Master Ford, your words are gold. Come drink some wine, Master Ford.”
Ford immediately leaped forward and took the wine from Jewel before gulping the entire cup down.
Jewel plucked a lot of cherries and made a lot of wine for the past few days. Ford had drunk a few cups but it was still not enough. Jewel stopped him just as he was about to make another cup.
"Master Ford, you must teach the sword technique first then you can continue to drink." Jewel smiled.
"You cheeky girl!" Ford was furious but could not rebuke. He sighed and looked at Darryl. "You're lucky to have such a good servant. Alright then, I will pass the entire Celestial Swordsmanship to you since you're quite talented. You're lucky that I have no disciple."
Ford was upset at that moment as he never thought after battling his whole life, he would be tricked by a little girl.
Ford thought, 'This young man is a truly good seed to train. If I pass him the Celestial Swordsmanship, I'll finally have someone to inherit it.’
Jewel was impatient and softly said," Mister, what are you waiting for? Bow to your master.”
"Yes, yes." Darryl finally gathered his thoughts and quickly knelt respectfully toward Ford. "Disciple Darryl pays respects to Master Ford.”
