"You have only one mission, and that is to become a mage, and to become a mage by your own strength before I die!"

Before Aikawa Sanfang became a mage, this was the most his father said to him...... Or, is it the only word?

Aikawa Sanfang can't remember whether his father said anything else, and since he can't remember clearly, this is the only sentence. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But what is a mage? what exactly do you have to do when you become a mage, what can you do, and what should you do?

Whenever I see the wind blowing the leaves and the rain hitting the stump branches, Xiangchuan Sanfang will think of it from time to time, but every time I think of the end, all that remains is the emptiness and melancholy in the stomach, and the loneliness is so lonely that an inexplicable sadness rises to my heart......

In fact, perhaps the cause of the sadness was not because of the broken flowers and leaves, but because of the face of my father when he spoke......

The fat face that has lost its former toughness and is full of all kinds of materialistic desires...... I must have wondered about the disgusting face, and then thought of what the face had said......

But why this strange feeling?

Aikawa Sanfang also thought about this problem, probably, because of his own experience, maybe ......

So what exactly is a mage?

Is it degeneration into a waste who only knows how to mate with pleasure?

This is indeed the case, but Aikawa Sanfang thinks it shouldn't be like this......

But why is this happening?

One after the other?

Aikawa Shanfang has watched his father's changes and gradually grown, since he can remember, his father is just a mage apprentice, and he has not been given the position of patriarch, just a small minion role, even among apprentices, his qualifications are not the best, and there are people who are more accomplished than him in the eyes of the elders.

But my father was not a little discouraged, he didn't complain at all, he just kept working hard every day, and he didn't slack off at all...... Maybe there are still complaints, grievances, and resentment......

In fact, there are still people who work hard, and there are still people who have better qualifications and work harder to get more resources than their fathers, but why did my father achieve the status of a mage first and obtain the status of a patriarch in one fell swoop?

The reason was not learned until a long time later, when he was still dull for a while, but soon he stopped caring about it, but he would never be able to do that kind of thing...... That's what he thought at the time.

Eventually, however, he did, just like his father, and then attained the status of a mage like his father, ascending to the throne of patriarch.

The only difference is probably the different attitude of the two after becoming mages, because I still remember my father's ugly face, the smell of rotten rotten wood that permeated the whole body.

Or, because the cost is too great, the burden is heavier, and there is no desire for pleasure......

Completely different from his father's style, the Aikawa Sanfang received unanimous praise among the family, believing that the Aikawa clan would grow in his hands and would restore the glory of the ancestral period.

But in fact, only Aikawa Sanfang himself understands that he does not have much sense of belonging to the so-called family, and constantly tries to carry it forward?

The reason why he didn't have a trace of slackness like his apprentice was that he didn't want to die a miserable death like his father.

In the end, he still chose that secret method, and what the consequences would be in fact his father had already explained it clearly, and he knew very well what would happen to him in the future, but if he didn't do that, how could he become a mage? How could he possibly get supreme status? The reduction in lifespan, the severe pain that accompanied the season, and the pain of being bitten by a resentful ghost when he died......

But it was also through that spell that Aikawa Sanfang and his father got the power of the mage, but it was really painful, a pain that came from the depths of the bone marrow......

However, after all, there are still benefits, at least there are benefits to eating the meat of one's wife, one's own children, and the flesh of one's mother and brother, which I ate earlier.

The moment when he became a mage in Xiangchuan Sanfang, maybe it was the awakening of the bloodline of the ancient inheritance in his body, maybe it was the explosion of dead qi in his body, maybe it was the collateral effect of that spell, no one knew, but it was not important, the important thing was that he had a strong sense of anger.

Especially for people's anger, Xiangchuan Shanfang can clearly distinguish all people within a mile, relying on induction, unless there is an enchantment isolation, but once the enchantment is opened, the mana fluctuations that disperse are like the bright moon in the night sky for the mage, which is extremely obvious.

So......

"Get out of here!"

Xiangchuan Shanfang channeled nearly thirty percent of the mana in his body into the runes in his palm, and after bombarding the fireball held in his palm, he immediately released three flames and hit the place where he sensed vitality.

This time is definitely an opportunity, as long as I can get the appreciation of the Great Elder Qingshui, with the strength of the Qingshui clan and the Yuan Witch Residence, remove the anomaly of the spiritual source in my body, or give me some secret methods to prolong my life, there won't be many problems, anyway, I am also a mage, and my strength is slightly better than other mages......

"Aikawa Sanfang, what are you doing—oh?...... Ah, I see, well done!" "Qing Shui Chaoguang saw that Xiangchuan Sanfang suddenly stopped his body and attacked to the side at first, and he was still a little confused, but in the next second, he felt two powerful mana fluctuations suddenly coming from there, and he suddenly understood.

Those two guys are hiding here!

In this way, the two mana fluctuations in front of him...... Well, it seems that they are nothing more than two clusters of mana light with similar fluctuating properties.

I said, how can it be so fast with a burden.

It was almost hidden, it seems that this person in Xiangchuan Shanfang still has some doorways, and it is different from those guys, Qing Shui Chaoguang looked at the mages around him with a surprised face, and there was a burst of disgust in his heart.

These guys, who are already completely intoxicated with pleasure, think that becoming a mage will be foolproof?

It seems that he has been completely numb in his peaceful life for so many years, and has forgotten that hundreds of years ago, junior mages, no, even intermediate mages were just stronger cannon fodder.

It is clearly recorded in the classics that when there was a war hundreds of years ago, those intermediate and junior mages who were killed by the minions of the Great Demon could have dozens or hundreds of them each time.

Think that with the weakening of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, it is natural for your strength level to be low?

Even so, even if the vitality between heaven and earth is much thinner than before, there are still great demons in this era, and there are still archmages, although the number is not as many as in the past, but as long as these two still exist, the so-called heavenly time is just a set of nonsense used to deceive oneself.

Not only is their strength low, but they also like to deceive themselves, and they have no brains, even dogs know how to look at people's faces, but they don't even have the slightest keen sense.

Don't these guys want to think about why they are suddenly attacking the Glacier Shrine?

Is it because you have nothing to do when you are full? If you have nothing to do, wouldn't it be better to play with women? You can also reproduce some more offspring.

Or is it ridiculous for more resources?Resources,Heh,No amount of resources can make up for the star sand used by all the mages of the Fate Clan and the Glacier Shrine.,That's the ancient period of the gods had to go through a long time to collect.,The materials used to build the artifact.,Even the twelve famous gods made by **** Qingming.,They all specially collected the star sand for a long time.,How can that value be replaced by some ridiculous resources.。

There is also the war in Kyoto, which was the emperor's imperial land, but the war has been going on for eight years and has only recently subsided, but most of the buildings in Kyoto have been reduced to ruins, and there are even more casualties, and there are almost tens of thousands of resentful spirits waiting to be cleaned.

The status of the imperial family has declined greatly after the Heian period, but as the heir of Amaterasu in the human world, the power of the mage level has never been weaker than the existence of any force, especially with Ise Jingu, a supporter since ancient times, and the large and small mage forces relying on Ise Jingu, the status of the royal family has never decreased a little.

Under such circumstances, war broke out, and about 300,000 troops fought in Kyoto, with a population of only about 200,000 people, and the real reason is not very clear until now, and it will not be the reason for the ridiculous struggle for the position of shogun.

However, it was only a change in the world, and the important thing is that the mage forces also became turbulent during this time, and those weaker forces were completely destroyed by the overt or covert mergers......

However, the Glacier Shrine is probably the largest mage force to be destroyed in so many years...... I don't know how much turmoil it will cause, and perhaps the dispute will become bigger and bigger in the future.

As for the cause of the strife, it is still unclear.

…… Speaking of which, none of the mages here are combat-type, and it's easy to bully the mage apprentices, but if you really let them participate in the battle, the only use is probably to put spells next to the enchantment, although there will be no danger, but it will definitely not play a role.

The only ones who can really rely on are those mages who specialize in combat, and they are the only ones who can ...... It's a pity that the number is too small, and the resources required to train a combat mage are tens or hundreds of times that of ordinary mages, which is nothing, as long as you are willing, you can still afford it, but the most important thing is that only people with special talents have the qualifications to become combat mages.

When the matter here at the Glacier Shrine is over, I think I'm going to mobilize the power of my clan to search for qualified children in various places - no, I shouldn't be the only one who senses the change in the situation, and those patriarchs should have been aware of it a long time ago, after all, they control every aspect of an entire region......

It seems that I have to go out myself, three, no, even only one is enough, and when it comes to this, alas, there is no successor.

Well?

…… Why did I suddenly think of these things, it seems that the recent changes in the situation have affected my mind very much, and I am not young anymore......

But I feel uncomfortable when I see their faces...... Qing Shui Chaoguang twisted his face to the side and looked at the place where the mana fluctuations were coming from.

Even those two guys are much stronger than these guys, and they can come up with such a brilliant idea in such a short period of time, if Aikawa hadn't noticed the abnormality, even he would have been deceived.

"That's?"

"It's those two mages, it turns out that they are hiding here, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it......"

"Damn, those two bastards, how dare they deceive us like this!"

"Thanks to Aikawa-kun this time, please give me a lot of advice in the future......"

Embarrassed, they had already discovered where the enemy was, and they didn't even hurry forward to surround them, Qing Shui Chaoguang looked at the performance of the mages, and couldn't help but shake his head, especially thinking that three of them were mages from his own family, the disappointment in his heart was even more indescribable.

Looks like I still need to-

"Ahh......h

Wait, what's that sound?

Qing Shui turned his head towards the light and looked ahead, although he gathered spiritual power in his eyes, he still only saw darkness, nothing.

But that voice is......

This sense of danger that cannot be mentioned...... How strange it feels.

It must have been felt somewhere, and where exactly......

"Well, what's that sound?"

"Strange, is something cracking?"

"It's getting closer, everyone be careful......"

"What's the matter, those two guys actually flew back, aren't they self-defeating?"

"Catch up, maybe you want to escape from somewhere else!"

"I suddenly had a bad feeling that we should go back too......

"So, what's that?"

Isn't this the crack in the altar that I just saw? How could it be? How could there be so many? How could it be?

This feeling...... It's like the whole world is falling apart.

Qing Shui Chaoguang looked at the dense pitch-black cracks that spread in front of him that covered the entire heaven and earth, and his whole heart sank straight down.
