"Yes..." Isabel Norton said, "Natalie Grant's father really dislikes Norton, not to mention that Norton already has a fiancée. Natalie fell out with her parents for Norton, but in the end, she was still abandoned by Norton. From a woman's perspective, I truly detest Norton's behavior."
Logan Bennett said, "Then if I run into Natalie Grant in the future, that would be a huge problem."
Isabel Norton nodded and said, "Yes, I can't say for sure how Natalie Grant would react if she met you. She might even draw her sword and attack you on the spot—her martial arts are very strong."
Immediately, Logan Bennett shivered again, feeling an immense pressure.
Isabel Norton comforted him again, "Since Natalie Grant's martial arts are so good, if you ever run into her and she tries to hit you, just play pitiful, don't say a word, and definitely don't fight back. She loves Norton very, very much, so she wouldn't really be willing to hurt you."
"Alright, okay..." Logan Bennett said with difficulty, "Are there any other women I need to watch out for?"
Isabel Norton shook her head and said, "I don't know. Because I like to discipline, Norton hasn't come home for a long time, so there are some things I don't know either. But I vaguely heard that he also had an improper relationship with a female teacher at the academy, and was even caught by her husband."
Logan Bennett was about to go crazy. If that's the case, even if he goes to the Royal City Academy in the future, he won't have any peace. This Norton is really a scoundrel, actually seducing his own teacher, and a married woman at that, and even got caught in the act. How did he not get hacked to death before?
Chapter 10: Genius Logan Bennett, The Truth Behind the Transmigration?
Isabel Norton's beautiful eyes were full of apology as she said, "I'm sorry, Little Logan, Norton is so disappointing, making things difficult for you."
Logan Bennett said with difficulty, "I... I'll do my best. What do these women look like? If I run into them in the future and don't recognize them, that would be a problem."
Isabel Norton said, "Norton may be disappointing, but the one thing he's good at is painting. For every woman he really liked, he would leave a portrait. I'll get them for you to see."
A moment later, Isabel Norton brought over a box. When she opened it, it was filled with dozens of scrolls.
Opening them up, they were all portraits of beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, all stunningly beautiful. This scoundrel's private life was such a mess, but every woman he was involved with was more beautiful than the last—on Earth, each one would be a goddess.
And this scoundrel was indeed talented at painting beauties. In this world, there was no such thing as sketching from life; all the paintings were like traditional Chinese-style portraits of beauties. It was truly impressive that he could capture each woman's features with such simple lines.
Logan Bennett carefully looked at the portraits of Lady Preston, Grace Walker, and Natalie Grant. Just the paintings alone were already stunningly beautiful—who knew what they looked like in real life? Especially Natalie Grant, with a voluptuous figure that was almost explosively curvy, a true peerless beauty.
This scoundrel's luck with women was really something else.
"Little Logan, Norton is terrible at everything except painting," Isabel Norton said. "So during this time, I need to teach you some painting techniques, so you won't be stuck when it matters most."
Logan Bennett originally wanted to say it wasn't necessary—he could paint, and was very skilled at it. But instead, he said, "Alright, sister."
Logan Bennett had majored in art, and his skills were very high. Since childhood, he had painted portraits of his sister Lauren Bennett at least a thousand times. His figure drawing was so good it could rival photographs.
But letting Isabel Norton teach him to paint would mean spending time together, a great opportunity to build their relationship.
...
For the first two days, his sister told Logan Bennett about all of Norton's relationships—in other words, she gave a rough introduction to all the ex-girlfriends in the portraits. She also gave a general introduction to the teachers and students at the Royal City Academy.
Next, it was time to start catching up on this world's history and basic knowledge.
So, Logan Bennett saw books from this new world for the first time, and was immediately shocked.
Because all the characters were ones he had learned before—they were exactly the same as Chinese on Earth. Not only that, but some of the articles and sentences were also familiar.
Because this world also had things like the Four Books and Five Classics, basic mathematics, and related philosophy. And all this knowledge was derived from ancient Chinese classics, with a bit of Western philosophy mixed in.
Not only that, in music, both the five-line staff and the traditional Chinese pentatonic scale coexisted.
So, he quickly opened up the history books of this world, finally solving the biggest mystery since he transmigrated.
The fact that this world used Chinese characters was no coincidence. The reason was one person: Emperor Drake!
Emperor Drake, the most powerful person in this world, single-handedly created the entire Central Land civilization—a superhuman.
Three thousand years ago, this world was chaotic and disordered. Most areas were primitive tribes, with only a few villages, towns, and cities. Civilization was at a very primitive stage. There were dozens or even hundreds of written languages, and thousands of spoken languages.
The humans of this world were called the descendants of dragons, and each person had some amount of dragon blood in their veins. The higher the bloodline talent, the stronger their martial power.
So, for tens of thousands of years, martial strength had been the eternal theme of this world, and with it, endless war.
