Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Magicians usually give people a mysterious and aloof impression.  For the vast majority of people, this group of people with powerful magical abilities is omnipotent.  Of course, magic is undoubtedly out of reach for these humble mortals, so in addition to magic, there are other more familiar things that can be desired, power and money.

    Power can bring huge influence and can change other people's attitude towards you; enough money can even make the devils of the Nine Hells work for you; although these things are not unrelated**, in most cases  Next, they are entangled and intertwined with each other. If you get one of them, you can get the others relatively easily.  But this is not something that everyone can understand.

    Sebastian still has a small number of subordinates from the Wamborn family under his command. This old aristocratic family that has been rooted in Sorens for hundreds of years has its own various channels under the table.  Not long after the order was issued, a report about Philby Magician was already placed on the boy's desk.

    "It seems quite interesting, Mr. Philby." The young magician looked thoughtfully at the few pages of the report in his hand, with a slight curvature at the corner of his mouth. "The origins that are difficult to verify, becoming a magician  It disappeared not long after that, and it is really mysterious that it suddenly reappeared now. In other words, he is as strong and confident as a master tower. If it were any other ordinary trade union organization, I am afraid that such a guy would never be admitted into the union.  Rightthen why would such a person want to have contact with me?"

    Several possibilities emerged in Sebastian's mind, and then were overturned by him one by one.  It's not surprising that the young man is not the scheming type after all, and can summarize and restore the answer closest to the truth with limited information.  For him, no matter what kind of conspiracy is against him, as long as he is strong enough, the conspiracy cannot affect him in the slightest.  Although not exactly the same, this simple and pure attitude is somewhat similar to that of the barbarians in the North.

    "Lessie, let's make some arrangements." Without further thought, Sebastian ordered.  "I would be happy to meet Mr. Philby."

    It¡¯s only the time for a meal.  The messenger sent brought back the answer.  The young apprentice named Cavor who came to visit before happily said that his mentor happened to be free recently and welcomed the magician Sebastian to visit Xiaomu at any time.

    Since Philby is almost old enough to be a boy's grandfather, he has a longer experience as a spellcaster.  Therefore, even though the other party first expressed his wish to meet, Sebastian still followed traditional etiquette, brought some symbolic gifts, and took the initiative to visit.

    ???????????????????????????????????:  The boy was not too worried about his own safety.  The blatant use of offensive spells is prohibited, as is the case in other areas, but the upper city area where they are located, where nobles live, is under the surveillance of the Master's Tower almost around the clock.  Unless the arcane attainments of the person who uses magic are still higher than the master of the Archmage Tower who personally arranged the detection device, which is really difficult from any angle, any known offensive spell will trigger the magic in the tower.  Alarm, the magician on duty will be sent over to check as soon as possible.

    Both parties are equal.  Magician Philby, who was over fifty years old, was not rude. After receiving the news, he came to the door of the mansion in advance to greet him warmly.

    Wizard Philby's appearance is quite ordinary, but the wrinkles on his forehead and corners of his eyes show the vicissitudes of time left on his body. He wears a pair of small round glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his already graying hair and beard look simply combed.  However, it was just scattered casually; on top of the head was a tall pointed hat with patterns of stars and moons on it; a simple rune mage robe covered the whole body, with several large and small ties tied messily on the belt.  Different pockets.

    This is undoubtedly a mature middle-aged man who can be said to be the most perfect interpretation of the role of "magician" in the minds of ordinary people from any angle.

    Even if you are in a carriage.  With the spiritual sight of the spiritual crystal servant.  Sebastian, who had "seen" each other before the two actually met, couldn't help but laugh.  Without him, in the eyes of the maverick magicians.  The Philby magician's dress is a bit too "magician", as if he is afraid that others will not know that he is a mysterious magician.

    Regrettably, this pleasure only lasted for a short period of time.  Because soon, the young magician was keenly aware that this enthusiastic inviter had a disguised aura of change.  Although there are many spells in the transformation system, combined with the current unnaturalness, the most reasonable and most likely guess is that the perfectly normal image seen in front of you is most likely not this Fei??Compared with the magician's true appearance.  And on top of this, even if there is such a distance between the two of them, Sebastian can still feel the strong sense of oppression emanating from the other person's existence itself, as well as the faint trace of escaping.  The smell of evil.

    This is an indescribable ability. It is not detected by magic, nor is it derived from abundant energy, but is simply an instinct.  Just like wild animals can unreasonably distinguish which creatures they have never met are their natural enemies or prey, manifestors who have tempered their minds and become increasingly clear naturally also develop various incredible supernatural abilities.  .

    Having said that, an unexpected discovery of this magnitude would not shake Sebastian¡¯s behavior.  He calmly stepped out of the carriage and walked towards the smiling Magician Philby.

    "Welcome, young magician! When I heard the rumors about you, I was actually a little skeptical. But obviously, to be able to reach such a height at such an age, you undoubtedly have enviable talents.  Philby crossed his hands in front of his chest and bowed slightly, performed a standard mage salute, then carefully looked at the young man up and down, and said cheerfully.

    "You're very flattering. I still have a long way to go in the profound art of arcana, and I need to learn more from pioneers like you." Sebastian smiled in return and responded softly.  road.

    "You are so humble, hahaha" Philby laughed and offered his arm, "Please!"

    Almost all luxury homes have many things in common. Needless to say, they are spacious, bright, comfortable and pleasant.  Not long after the two sat down on the sofa in the reception room, the young maid naturally served fragrant black tea and various snacks.

    It is completely different from the impression that magicians are weird and lonely in the eyes of ordinary people.  Although Philby is much older than Sebastian.  But he is quite talkative and very good at initiating topics. He has always firmly dominated the conversation with the boy.  Of course, he also generously answered some of the questions raised by the younger generation, without any intention of being self-conscious.

    It has to be said that some less-detailed and less popular knowledge is recorded in the library.  Philby was actually able to talk about it.  Based on this vision and experience alone, we can see that he is definitely not an ordinary academic mage. If he hadn't traveled far and wide, he would have seen a lot.  Having personally experienced all kinds of experiences, it is absolutely impossible to describe them so vividly.

    The conversation with Magician Philby was quite pleasant, although the other party may not be better than me in arcane attainments.  But their detailed understanding of the world is vastly different.  Therefore, even though he felt that there was a vague intention to find out about his origins in the other party's words, Sebastian did not take it seriously and still believed that he had benefited a lot.

    If he wanted to say why, it was because he could roughly feel that this mysterious Philby magician did not have the slightest hostility towards him, but on the contrary felt a certain affinity with him.  Not only did the other party not have the slightest hint of jealousy or envy regarding his own achievements.  There was actually a little bit of relief.  f¨£ngfo treats his beloved children and grandchildren as usual.

    The boy was brought back from the royal city by Isabel and lost his memory inexplicably.  Although it is not known to everyone, it is impossible to hide it from anyone.  In addition, the past memory of Tom, the original owner of this body, has indeed been completely erased by him. Therefore, unless the gods personally take action, no mortal being can distinguish the fact that he took the body.  What's more, after accepting Tom's last obsession, he had already decided to accept everything the original owner of this body had to endure.

    The aristocratic young man who appeared in the royal citythe down-and-out illegitimate sonthese individual factors come together to create an almost outrageous aristocratic farce.  In fact, not only Sebastian, but also Isabel and Baron Wamborn had similar speculations at first.  It's just that as time went on and no messenger took the initiative to contact him, he no longer took it to heart.

    After all, in the long history of the aristocracy, there are only a handful of illegitimate children who were kicked out but then came back to recognize their ancestors.  If the rare manifester potential contained in this body had not been discovered, it would have been possible only because of the extremely high magical talent shown by the young man due to the extreme concealment of the psychic power.  Being able to become an official magician before the age of eighteen is an achievement that is difficult to achieve even for the children of the royal family who have been trained with great efforts since childhood.

    Generally speaking, if there is an illegitimate son of a noble who can prosper on his own, then the vast majority of noble families will choose to absorb him back into the family.  Although he is just an illegitimate child who cannot be put on the stage, as long as he works privately and finds a way to get a legitimate title, the family's strength can be objectively increased.  In comparison, some negative factors brought by gossip can be ignored.  AndOn the one hand, the illegitimate children who are willing to return can also enjoy the benefits, resources, connections and more profound things brought by the family.  In general, unity brings benefits to both sides, and separation brings disadvantages. Unless there is truly irreconcilable hatred, the blood connection will be difficult to sever, and most people will still choose to return to the family.

    But Sebastian is not Tom.  This body's past meant nothing to him.  The boy's family couldn't even leave any substantial obsession in his jingsh¨¦n crystal.  In other words, even the deepest bloodline has no restrictions on him at all. He is completely a group of strangers.

    However, since the other party is very sincere in coming to the door, then as long as the conditions are agreed upon, it is not impossible to cooperate, right?  (To be continued.)
