Chapter 187 Fulfilling the Wish of Becoming an Apprentice

Freya spent the afternoon at the Joint Department in West Geft.

During her free time, she went to Brandon’s office for tea. Brandon seemed to have more free time than her these

days.

In the office, there was already a display rack set up. It was filled with the small tenon-mortise boxes he had been

studying as well as some animal figures made of wood.

Each one was interesting. She saw a delicate little puppy with eyes attached without using any glue or

nails.

Freya then took a small box and played with it while chatting with Brandon.

“You went to Vroria for a week, but you didn’t even come to see me when you came back. You disappeared for five

or six days again!” Brandon coldly snorted while drinking tea. “With all this going on, half a month has already

passed!”

Freya laughed. “Mr. Lane, you sure are good at math. If your math teacher knew that you got half a month by

adding a week and five or six days together, your teacher is going to get pissed.”

Brandon scoffed. “He’s already dead, bless his heart.”

Freya raised an eyebrow. “He would come back to life from the anger.”

After the two continued to banter, Freya asked about Trisha’s condition as of late.

“Her health has improved a lot now. Actually, she can come to Caltun. She can stay in the villa outside the city.

Although it’s good for her health, it’s not lively. It might get lonely for her.”

Brandon nodded. “She and I don’t plan to settle in Caltun either. We’ll go back to Lagresh after a while after your

project here is finished. She planted a lot of pear trees on the land behind the Vincent Residence’s castle. She

thinks about them every day.”

“It’s such a waste for someone as talented as you.” Freya sighed.

“It’s not like I’m dying. I’m going abroad!” Brandon happily found fault in Freya’s words.

Seeing that Freya didn’t argue with him this time, Brandon hesitated for a few seconds before he huffed, “Frey.”

“Huh?”

“Would you want to learn this technique?”

Freya’s eyes lit up. “Will you teach me? This is usually passed down within families, and there are rules like not

passing it on to women.”

Brandon sneered. “Have you watched too many old movies? It used to be like that, but now with the reform and

opening up, I don’t care about those rules. I teach whoever I don’t find to be an eyesore.”

Freya smiled and hummed, “So I’m not an eyesore to you, and you are willing to teach me,”

Brandon frowned, feeling like he was being tricked by this young lady.

Originally, if Freya wanted to learn, he could have taken the opportunity to show off his skills and make things

difficult for her.

“I won’t be staying in the country for long.” Brandon got up grumpily and took out a book from a drawer on the

side. He tossed it in front of Freya with disdain. Learn from this. It contains all my skills and research.”

Freya looked at the “book” in her hand which was actually a small booklet.

Despite being the size of an A4 paper, it was as thick as a dictionary.

When she opened it, she saw hand-drawn pictures with words on the side of each picture.

This was some information that didn’t exist in the market, explaining in detail where these tenon-mortise structures

could be used before these explanations were often followed by ellipses.

“Tenon-mortise is a skill, but it also relies on talent and imagination.”

Brandon pointed to the words written in red below. This is my review. I hope you can extrapolate from it. If I were to

write everything down, it would probably fill ten notebooks and still not be enough.”

Freya looked at a round tenon-mortise, and below it was Brandon’s note. ‘Can be used for houses, furniture,

assembly crafts, and robot knee caps.

Freya pondered for a moment. “Mr. Lane, what are robot kneecaps?”

“Knee caps, knee joints! This structure looks simple, but it’s actually hollow inside.

“Wood is not conductive, and with some special materials, it is wear-resistant and won’t rust like metal. I thought

that if technology develops robots in the future, this thing would definitely be useful for making kneecaps.”

Freya nodded. “You have really far-reaching thoughts.”

Brandon chortled. “Frey, that’s not the only usage of this thing. You will gradually understand it as you study.”

Freya only looked at the first page with the small round ball, and countless ideas of its usage flashed through her

mind.

She casually flipped through the back, and the further she went, the more complex it became. In the end, it even

started to talk about the details of tenon-mortise structures in palaces and load-bearing structures.

Freya felt a surge of emotions in her chest.

This was indeed a genius’ lifetime of hard work.

If one’s imagination and logical thinking abilities were not up to par, or if one didn’t study hard enough, one would

not be able to create this book.

The book was heavy, but its significance and value were no less than The Compendium of Medical Wisdom she had

at home.

Freya’s heart sank as her throat tightened. There was a warm feeling in her chest.

Even if she had the honor of being accepted as an apprentice who had to serve for half her life, some

masters might not be willing to pass on this knowledge.

“Why don’t you publish a book?” Feeling choked up, she cleared her throat. “If you publish a book, it would

definitely be a national treasure.”

However, Brandon wasn’t interested in that. “I don’t want to be famous, so why should I publish a book? Besides,

this tenon-mortise thing is fine for making small things, but if it’s used to build houses, I’m afraid that people who

don’t understand it will mess it up! Nowadays, nine out of ten developers are unscrupulous. If the technology is not

up to par or if they cut corners, it will ruin the reputation of this industry if someone gets killed.”

Freya only pursed her lips as she understood what he meant.

This was a unique skill, but many problems could arise in the short term if it spread widely.

She got up and walked to the tea table on the side..

“Don’t touch my jade cup!” Brandon’s eyebrows pulled together into a frown. “It was a gift from Radley!”

Indeed, it was a good gift from Radley.

Freya looked at it and smiled. “I won’t drop it.”

Brandon’s tea, which he had just brewed, was still warm at this moment.

Freya went through each step seriously and finally poured a cup of tea.

She then held the tea and walked to Brandon, who was sitting at the table.

After she walked past the table, she bowed at him.

Brandon was dumbfounded when he saw this. “Y-Y-You! What is this-

However, Freya was serious, her beautiful face unusually solemn.

She properly offered him a cup of tea which she held up respectfully.

“Master, please allow me to serve you as your apprentice.”

Brandon was stunned for a moment before his eyes turned red.

As Freya lowered her head, she saw a crystal clear teardrop on Brandon’s hand.

She was about to raise her head when she was stopped by Brandon, who held her head with a small wooden stick

from the table.

“Trying to follow the tradition of becoming an apprentice? Have you watched too many TV shows?”

“It’s only right,” Freya answered.

“You should be worshiping our ancestors before you serve me tea!”

Freya thought for a moment. “Who is our ancestor?”

“Robin Hood!”

Fulfilling the Wish of Becoming an Apprentice

Freya thought for a moment. Robin Hood is an archer who makes extremely accurate shots.

Immediately, she was lightly hit on the shoulder by Brandon with the stick.

“Stop thinking about games!”

Freya guffawed, “Master, you truly are extraordinary!”
