42. Chasing the footsteps of Guoguo
At dinner, Fanny pushed open the lip glass window in the dining room, letting the evening breeze with the scent of golden apple blossoms in the garden bring a hint of coolness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhen the sun sets, clouds like flames float in the twilight on the horizon. The evening breeze made the candle flame in the wax table on the dining table dance incessantly, and I quickly took the lampshade from the windowsill and covered the candle flame. At this time, Fanny was taking out a plate of grilled lamb chops from the oven next to her, looked at me seriously, and said apologetically to me, "I'm sorry, Jia, I was supposed to accompany you to the awakening ceremony today!"
"It's okay, Fanny, I know my way home, the War College is easy to find, and you won't find a taller building in the whole of El City, thank you for your concern!" I smiled and pulled out a stack of silver dinner plates from the pear wood cabinet next to me, and took out a few silver dinner knives from the knife box and expertly placed them on the table.
I'm used to doing these things, I sometimes even have to help Fanny wash the dishes after dinner, which makes Fanny almost smile at first, and Fanny is not very willing to let me do kitchen work in the last two years, because it seems to have been said that boys always work in the kitchen, and slowly they will become like girls, and they will be bullied when they grow up. This was unbearable for Fanny, so she wasn't too willing to let me help out in the kitchen.
Today was an exception, though, and I think her eyes were a little moist.
She brought the fried onion rings, and I couldn't wait to reach out and pinch one and throw it into my mouth, it tasted very sweet.
Ryan walked in slowly with a stack of El Magic Evening Newspapers, wearing a loose set of pajamas, his figure was well maintained, there was no fat in his lower abdomen, his shoulders were broad, and his arms were thick, he walked in and asked me, "Jia, have you thought about the future?"
Ryan was the head of the house and naturally sat on the throne.
"What's the matter? Do you have to get a mage qualification certificate or something for the graduation exam? I've heard that it's hard to graduate from a war college, and the tutors always set the credits very high, maybe it will be easier to get the qualification certificate for the magic guild!" I sat down next to Rryant, and Fanny cut a large lamb chop into Ryant's plate, and added two more red tomatoes, and then mine, I prefer meat, fried onion rings, but I don't like tomatoes.
"You're a magician in the future, you've earned the title of Baron of the Grimm Empire, and maybe you'll have your own fiefdom!" Ryan continued.
"Fanny, do you like the manor?" I asked, turning to Fanny standing behind me.
Fanny was a little stunned by my question, and said, "What manor?" I still prefer this little house, and I'm used to living here. ”
"Then I don't want any fiefdoms, not all magicians will have such good luck and have their own fiefdoms, and Fanny doesn't like it either, but I think in the future I may go to the Sloyth Ivory Tower School of Magic, maybe go to the Royal Academy of Magic of Green, as a magician to have some pursuits, don't you?" I prefer to dip the grilled lamb chops in some barbecue sauce to make them taste more delicious.
Tracy walked slowly down the stairs with her wet hair, she was wearing a pair of light bloomers, a very cool little suspender on her upper body, and the tall snow peaks on her chest were tightly wrapped in them, rising and falling as she walked. She is in good shape, especially because of the long-term exercise, so that her waist is full of tenacity, as a martial artist who uses Western rapille, the training intensity of the waist and legs is the largest, she saw that we were very engaged in talking, so she interjected and asked, "What are you talking about?"
"After talking about you and Jia, Jia was blessed by Lady Luck at the magic awakening ceremony today, and was fortunate to become a magician nobleman, Jia said that she would go to the Royal Academy of Magic in the imperial capital to study in the future, this ideal is very good! There may be a more glorious road to go in the future, but no matter what height you will reach in the future, Fanny and I will be proud of you. We are also proud of Tracy, you are a brave and kind female fencer, you always remember the words of the oath, you can protect your teammates without fear of life and death, this is a very good quality. Ryan said.
Ryan had some affirmation of me and Tracy, and he glanced at me before saying, "Originally, I thought that Jia was going to choose to study in the junior warrior academy of the War College, and your physical fitness is much better than that of children of the same age, and you will become an excellent warrior, but I didn't expect you to become a magician apprentice." ”
"Haha, maybe Fanny won't have to worry about what to do if the oven breaks down in the future, let me help you solve these problems, I'm a magic apprentice who can use fire magic!" I triumphantly reached out and clicked my fingers, and a flame the size of a candle flame floated on the tip of my index finger, a little trick that immediately made Fanny and Tracy's mouths grow in surprise.
"Jia, are you able to control those fire elements so quickly? I have never heard of a child who has just awakened the magic pool, in such a short period of time, can control the fire element so easily, Jia, will you be a fire mage in the future? In the Grimm Empire, there are many great fire magicians, and now fire magic is the mainstream magic of the Grimm Empire. "Ryan is obviously a martial arts instructor who has seen the world, and he has a certain involvement in magic.
I shook my head a little embarrassed and said, "Actually, it's not!"
"Oh?" Ryan looked up at me, a little surprised.
Tracy and Fanny also looked at me, and they didn't understand why I didn't want to be a fire magician when I had the ability to manipulate fire magic.
Gently rubbing the bridge of his nose with his index finger, it was a little difficult to speak, and he hesitated for a moment before saying, "During the day, at the end of the awakening ceremony, the dean of the academy asked us to choose which department of magic to major in, and I didn't choose the fire department!"
"Uh!" Ryan also couldn't understand for a moment, before asking, "Why, tell me your reason, don't you like fire, or do you think other magics are cooler?"
"Do magic apprentices also have the right to choose to practice magic?" Tracy asked, somewhat surprised.
Ryan said: "Actually, there is, but at the beginning, magic apprentices will default to the series of magic they are best at, that is, which magic elements are more acceptable to the body, and they will choose to practice that magic skill, or some mentors will recommend some series of magic suitable for magic apprentices to practice according to the magic element affinity of magic apprentices." But I think Jia is better suited to learn fire magic, and I'm sure the magic instructors in some schools say the same!"
Ryan believes in the qualities of the mentors at the Junior Academy of Magic in El City, and he believes that these mentors will guide me to the quickest path to magical cultivation. It made me sweat even more, and I felt that my little waywardness was simply unreasonable, and I didn't even want to show off my ice magic abilities.
Seeing that I had my head lowered, Ryan guessed that things were not as simple as he thought, and asked me with a straight face, "So what is your choice?"
"Water magic!My dream is to be a secondary type magician!" I stretched out my five fingers, and in the center of the five fingers condensed a drop of water, which was not very stable.
When I was picked up by Old Kuru on the edge of the burnt forest, I had my own bloodline talent, which was the power brought by the awakening of the family's bloodline power, and many ancient families had their own unique bloodline inheritance, and the awakening of those bloodline powers was called the awakening of my true name, and I awakened my own real name. Jiga is my name, and after I have the bloodline power of the Light Blue Ice Flame, my real name is Jiga Blue Flame.
I was seriously injured in the battle with the gray dwarf bandits at the exit of the road of death, and in order for me to get better, old Kuru forcibly entered my spiritual sea and activated another bloodline power hidden in my body, that is, the "self-healing" ability, so my name was changed to Jiga Blue Flame Self-healing.
I was born a magician with the power of ice, and this is my bloodline ability. When I managed to condense my magic pool during the Awakening Ritual, my ice magic ability finally showed, and I could condense ice crystals in the palm of my hand very easily, even faster than condensing water balls, it was almost an instinct of mine.
So at the moment, I'm careful to maintain the existence of that drop of water, it needs a little mana to keep floating in my palm, but if the mana I input is not well controlled, the drop of water will condense into ice, and it is very unstable. But obviously, when I told me my choice, Ryan and Fanny weren't surprised, they looked at me in confusion, not understanding what was so difficult about my choice.
In fact, I think that a support mage, his role in the team is much higher than that of other mages, they can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the fighters in the team, and can also protect the warriors in the most dangerous battles. On the contrary, those magicians with superior abilities are sometimes incompatible with other team members, but many magic apprentices don't like to be a support magician, because the combat ability of the auxiliary magician is too weak, so they don't have the superiority of a magician at all!" Ryant complimented me approvingly.
But there was no excitement in Fanny and Tracy's eyes, and there was more melancholy in Fanny's eyes, she sighed and whispered to Tracy worriedly, "Is it that Jia helped us brush the dishes in the kitchen too much, so that his character is a little cowardly, so he will choose an auxiliary magician?"
"Probably not!" Tracy gave me a careful look, and bit the fried fish with a "click" crunch.
She knew how brave I was in the forest, facing man-eating spiders. She never thought I would be short of courage.
The dinner was very rich, Fanny originally thought that I would need to take the entrance exam for the junior warrior academy in the war college tomorrow, so I deliberately made a delicate dinner, but I didn't expect me to bring back the bigger news, that is, I have become a magician apprentice, for this matter, Fanny is mixed, she thinks that after I become a nobleman, I will slowly leave this family. After worrying about Tracy, it seems that he may have to find an excellent young man earlier, Tracy is not small after all. But Fanny is also very happy because of my great performance and great future.
Perhaps out of pleasure, Ryan made an exception and drank a little golden cider, Reynt was a very restrained warrior who believed that alcohol could damage the nervous system and dull people's reactions, and these injuries were very fatal for a warrior who was good at using a thin sword. Therefore, he drank very modestly, and only when he met something happy, he would drink a little bit of wine.
...... Beautiful Dividing Line......
It was cool in the attic, and I was leaning on the windowsill of the attic and looking down at the excitement, and Tracy, when he heard the noise outside, ran barefoot from the outside to my attic, and lay on the windowsill next to me, sticking his head out and looking down.
Those cries came from the neighbor's yard, and I saw Bin wearing a boxer shorts with broken flowers on a white background, huddled in the corner of the courtyard and not daring to move, his face was injured, and he was begging Dali who was standing in the yard: "Li, for my sake, you can let her go!"
"Hehe, at this time, you still dare to intercede for this little fox?"
A tall woman in a red and white striped dress, holding a pair of sharp scissors in her hand, pulled a girl's long hair with the other hand, and with a crisp "click", a lock of hair was cut off. And the girl lying on the ground was just wrapped in a thin sheet, curling her body on the ground, her hair was pulled in her hand by Da Li, and her head was lifted, and she was already trembling with fright at this time.
"Come with me to the security department and let the sheriffs tell you about the crimes you have committed!" Dali said to the girl in a hateful voice.
"Sister Da Li, please, don't send me to the sheriff, please let me go!"
............
When I saw this in the attic, I turned to Tracy and asked, "Did you tell Dali that Bing and his little lover were messing around in his house?"
"Yes!" Tracy said as a matter of course.
I asked again, "I think it was Bing who turned his back on Da Li, these things should be Bing's fault, why is it the poor girl who suffered, you see her long hair was cut off!" I can't understand why the person who deserves the most criticism is just squatting in the corner and no one pays attention to him.
Tracy also widened his eyes and nodded, "If Bin were a man, he should stop the two of them, and he should take the initiative to take this matter!"
"Why are you telling Dali about this?" I asked.
Tracy turned her head and signaled that she wasn't happy, but still said, "I just think Dali has the right to know!"
I said dismissively, "Cut! hypocrisy." ”
"Well, before eating, Bing was so angry that I decided to make him suffer somewhat!" Tracy's personality is like that, like her sword, she likes to go straight.
"She's pathetic!" I was feeling sorry for the young girl.
Tracy sighed, lowered her head and said depressedly, "She probably knew that there would be such a day when Yubin cheated on her." (To be continued.) )
