Surviving The Fourth Natural Disaster - CH 15.3
“I didn’t expect that you pay more attention to Bonn!” said Adrian.
“Uncle Adrian’s former childhood playmates are also arranged. Isn’t it?”
“So why do you want him to be a mage? Isn’t it bad to be a knight or a little noble?”
“Uncle Adrian, your playmates are just playmates, and Bonn was my only childhood friend.”
“That’s right! Then you didn’t need to worry about it.” Adrian confided in his heart: “Teacher is good at everything, but he doesn’t care too much about vulgar things. His former disciples are one gourp with that stupid crowd, how could the other great nobles let their own family children becoming an apprentice of your grandpa lest he got angry. Only my family brought me in after Melanie’s incident, and the teacher suddenly decided I was a his heir, after that I was almost overwhelmed by the flames of jealousy.”
“My grandpa just didn’t want to care about those things. After accepting a satisfied disciple, why bother with something troublesome?”
“That’s right!” Adrian said smugly, “When I became an archmage, my family was happy like crazy.”
He complained: “Finally, I live up to the amount of golds paid to the Temple of Knowledge!”
Hill admired the long-term vision of Adrian’s family. From older generations, they continued to buy magic books from the Temple of Knowledge since settling in the Salar Kingdom. In addition, every child in the family would test their aptitude in magic.
After Adrian showed his excellent magical aptitude, the family did not hesitate to spend much money to stuff him to Frank.
An Archmage could live at least 800 years old! The higher the level, the most remarkable difference between knights and mages. Legendary knights had a lifespan of only 800 – 900 years. And If they were not careful, it was difficult for knights to live until then.
After all, no matter how well-maintained, the knights have to fight with their bodies, and if they didn’t pay attention to some internal injuries, it would affect their entire lives.
With Adrian’s 800-year-old lifespan, Adrian’s family didn’t need to worry too much because they had a backer.
Adrian carried Hill to Hill’s door of the magic tower.
Alice soon showed up with Merkel.
“Hill, Merkel still wants to continue to live on the mountain.”
Hill thought for a while: “There is a mountain on the left side of the entrance that does not have a magic circle. He can live there. By the way, guard the gate!”
Then taking out the super large package, he said helplessly: “Why did you dig so much? I’m so embarrassed to face my grandpa!”
Merkel groaned, and Alice translated helplessly: “Merkel felt that if it wasn’t for him guarding the mine, the mountain may been discovered long ago, this is the reward for him guarding the mountain.”
Adrian said with a smile: “Don’t worry, neither the teacher nor I care about it. You can let him be.”
Merkel nodded with satisfaction, took out 10 high-grade ores and placed them in front of Hill, then walked away happily with the package in his mouth.
Alice quickly followed, turned her head and said to Hill, “I’ll go looking after him, I won’t let him touch the magic circle!”
Hill waved his hand in agreement.
His happy mood fell when he turned his head to see Bonn standing at the door.
Looking at Bonn who had red eyes, he knew that the result of the discussion with Bonn’s family was that they would leave after all.
Lina as a mother, could always convince her son to agree with her.
Bonn’s hesitant heart finally calmed down.
He gave Adrian the town drawing on purpose so that Bonn would gradually be separated from his family. Then, after Bonn tirelessly cultivated into a mage in Frank’s tower, his feelings for his family should have significantly matured, and he would not feel hurt because his parents ignored him.
He smiled and said to Bonn, “Why are you crying! After becoming a mage, you can came to see me often, and it won’t take an hour to fly here.”
Bonn agreed while sobbing.
Hill looked at Lock and Lina who were standing behind and said, “Uncle Adrian is here to take you away. Hurry up and pack your luggage! It will take half a month for the rest of my grandpa’s people to arrive, and you will have to work hard during this time!”
They quickly agreed, and Lina expressed her reluctance to Hill before going upstairs to pack her things.
Hill turned his head and said to Bonn: “You keep the small ring in your hand. Don’t tell your mother about it, lest they bother you. The rest will be left to Liszt.”
Bonn shook his head: “Then You should keep it. It’s useless for me!”
Adrian said with a sneer: “Don’t be stupid, Hill wants you to bring something that your parents won’t know! You will live in Apprentice Street in the future, and you will be very far away from them. So, you don’t need to tell your parents about everything!”
Hill hurriedly stopped: “Uncle!”
Bonn shook his head and said to Hill: “I know! It’s normal for parents to prefer the youngest, and they actually treat me well too. You don’t have to worry.”
He looked at Hill’s worried face and finally smiled: “You said that I was smart since I was a child, and I had a qualification to become a mage. I just didn’t pay attention to some things. Today they were anxious and force me to agreed to leave, it’s too recognizeble. I also understand that this is the best way to deal with it. I will take the ring with me, and I will not tell them. Don’t worry about it. I will go my own way!”
