Agatha is really strange, and it’s not to say that she is ugly, or beautiful, of course. It is impossible to tell whether she is beautiful or ugly through her appearance now, and she is so strangely dressed that Rowen associates her with his summoning beast.
The so-called genius girl, indeed, has much in common with his summoning beast. At first glance, she looks like a real metal person: her body is all metal from head to toe and she is almost wrapped up by metal, and even her mouth and eyes also seem to be covered by a layer of something like a thin metal.
The most wonderful thing is that her metal clothing is not an ordinary armor, but it looks like it is a natural part of her body. It perfectly matches her body and her curves show greatly, so it looks like a maillot. Rowen wonders if the metal can be made into a maillot.
Meanwhile, Rowen wonders if she can take it off easily.
Rowen has actually become a little interested in this genius girl, while at the moment what attracts him most is that metallic dress. However, he has no idea what she looks like, and of course he isn’t very interested in her.
“Here’s my attack!” Rowen is awakened by the girl’s voice.

Agatha swings her sword at Jeff, but the speed is not quick, nor does it provoke anger, and it does not seem very powerful.
Jeff stays where he is and quickly blocks the sword. The two swords cross and issue a fierce clear sound.
“Oh!” Jeff snorts, his face turns white in a flash, and there is an abnormal flush of red on his face now. He steps a few steps back, almost back out of the circle. Jeff swings his sword into the ground around him with steps back and stops at the edge of the circle.
“Well, it’s a bit contrived, just barely qualified, so you’ll pass,” says Agatha lazily.
“Thank you, miss Ryan.” Jeff forces a smile. It is clear that this attack beats him, and Rowen finally knows that Agatha’s strength is so great that even an underrated sword is too much for a level-Ⅴfighter like Jeff.
“What about the casting material you brought?” asks Agatha faintly.
“Just a moment, please, Miss Ryan.” Jeff walks to the crowd, takes something from a magician and hands it to Agatha.
“Isn’t it a crystal ball?” Someone next to Rowen mutters something uncontrollably.
It is indeed a crystal ball, but different from the ordinary crystal ball, there is something else in the crystal ball. It is a flower, similar to a lotus, but obviously more beautiful than the ordinary lotus. Its purple petals and yellow stamen of the center look pure as the lotus but nobler.
“What’s this?” Agatha asks.
“Miss Ryan, it’s a rare flower called the sleeping lotus. Because the flower takes so little time to bloom, so I asked a magician to do something magical to keep it blooming without fading.” Jeff pauses and asks, “have you ever seen one of these, Miss Ryan?”
“No,” Agatha says simply.
“Miss Ryan, a caster used to tell me that everything can be used as casting materials. When casting a sword, in addition to the main iron, he may also add many other materials, therefore, even a flower can be used as casting material.” Jeff smiles. “Since Miss Ryan has never seen a flower like this, can this mean I’ve found a casting material you haven’t seen before?”
“Really? In this way?”
“What the hell? If it makes sense then I can find foundry material she hasn’t seen, either!”
“Yes, I can do that like this, too!”
For a time, everyone talks about this thing and everyone looks at Agatha, waiting for her reply.
“That’s true. Well, you’ve passed,” Agatha thinks for a moment, then nods.
“This is obviously cheating, Miss Agatha!” Someone who has passed the final level says disappointingly. Well, of course, he fails to find a casting material Agatha has never seen before.
“Cutting corners is also an ability,” says Agatha faintly. “if you had used this way before, I would have let you through.”
“This…” The man is unhappy, but at this moment he can’t say a word.
Agatha pays no attention to the man, but looks at Jeff. “Now I’m going to ask you some questions. You’d better answer truthfully. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you lie, because I can see through it anyway.”
“Miss Ryan, please ask anything you want to know.” Jeff is delighted as he seems to have seen the beauty in his arms. He is the last of the ten to be tested, and the nine before him, though a few of them have passed the first test, but now all are stuck at the second.
“Why do you want to marry me?” Agatha’s first question is straightforward.
Jeff answers without hesitation, “I have admired Miss Ryan for a long time.”
“Do you think I’m pretty?” Agatha’s second question also sounds simple.
“Miss Ryan is my goddess,” Jeff replies.
“Would you still want to marry me if I’m not from Ryan family?” Agatha’s third question seems sharp.
“I want to marry Miss Ryan, no matter what family she comes from,” Jeff still answers the questions without hesitation. Although this answer sounds hypocritical, everyone still believes this is the most appropriate answers.
“Well, that’s all for the test. I’ll make a decision later.” Agatha looks uninterested, and it is clearly that she really doesn’t like Jeff.
Jeff’s face finally lights up with excitement while the others look crestfallen. Jeff seems to have passed all three tests, and although Agatha has not made up her mind immediately, almost everyone in the room believes there is nothing doubtful concerning the marriage connecting the Ryan and Hawker families.
The marriage linking these two ancient families will be a great event for the Red Fox Empire. Most of the Ryan family members can accept the result. After all, the Hawker Family and the Ryan family are of the same level and Jeff and Agatha are perfectly matched in terms of personal ability and appearance.
“Wait a minute.” At this moment, the voice of Patriarch Philip reaches everyone’s ears. “Agatha, there is one more man to be tested.”
“Oh?” Haven’t all ten people finished the test? Why there’s another one?
Agatha says, “Who else, grandpa?
Philip says nothing but nods to Patriarch Brain.
“Rowen!” Patriarch Brian takes Philip’s meaning and says to Rowen.
Rowen nods and walks toward the field.
“Rowen Wolf, greet to Miss Ryan.” Rowen comes up to Agatha and says hello politely.
“Rowen Wolf?” Agatha is a little confused. “Then, who are you? I have never heard of you.”
Neither Agatha nor the thousands of onlookers know Rowen. Now everyone wants to know who the man is, but no one knows clearly.
“There are millions of people in the empire, and I’m just one of them. It’s not surprising that Miss Ryan hasn’t heard of me,” says Rowen faintly.
“So how old are you?” asks Agatha. “You look young.”
“Sixteen.” Rowen replies casually.
“Oh?” Says Agatha a little crossly. “You want a wife so greatly? Only sixteen years old, so what are you doing here?”
“If Miss Ryan does not hasten to find a husband, then I wouldn’t have come in such a hurry.” Says Rowen quietly.
Agatha is even less pleased. “You mean that I must marry you?”
“I didn’t mean that, Miss Ryan. And you can test it now,” Rowen frowns slightly. “If I can’t pass your test, then I will not force it.”
“You really want a test?” Says Agatha skeptically. “Are you sure you can take my sword? I don’t want to chop you to death carelessly.”
Rowen presses the bracelet button and presents himself in the armored beast’s cabin. “Miss Ryan, you can start now.”
“Ah… ” What is this huge iron thing?
“Wow?” Agatha looks interested. “What’s this?
“Miss Ryan, this is my summoning beast. I’m a summoner so I should take your attack in this combination mode. And this should be approved?” says Rowen calmly. He is confident of the first test.
There is a loud bang, and Agatha’s sword goes straight to the armored beast.
Rowen is stunned by a violent jolt, but as he has expected, the sword does not pierce the beast’s body.
“Miss Ryan, I’ve passed the first level, right?” Rowen asks.
Agatha stares at the spot where the iron beast has been stabbed, and mutters to herself, “what metal is this? How did I just stab a small hole?”
A little hole?
Rowen, too, is taken aback when he looks closely at the screen and sees that small puncture. He realizes that the armored beast’s body isn’t completely impassable. It doesn’t seem to have been hurt either, at least he hasn’t seen any blood.
“Hey, why are your summoning beast so strange?” asks Agatha.
“I don’t know.” Rowen turns the armored beast into a bracelet, then continues, “Miss Ryan, have I passed the first test?”
“Yes!” Agatha nods, and then says impatiently, “where is your summoning animal? How about showing it to me again?”
“Miss Ryan, please take the second test,” Rowen just wants to finish the test quickly.
“Well, you give me your summoning beast, and I’ll treat you as if you passed the second test!” Says Agatha quickly.
Rowen refuses, “No, I can’t give my summoning beast away.”
“Well, why don’t you summon your summoning beast and show it to me for a moment, and I’ll assume you pass the second test?” Agatha says after a while.
Rowen thinks for a moment and nods, “All right!”
In fact, he doesn’t really know how to pass the second test. He hasn’t prepared any so-called casting materials. And even if he follows the example of Jeff who comes from the Hawker family, he still can’t find anything as rare as a sleeping lotus.
