"The most important person...... "The boss who repeated Aniah's words showed the essence of humanity here, and then smiled: "Suddenly it feels like you are a little like me." ”

Ania looked up at the boss, and he said to him, "When I was young, I admired my eldest brother very much—because my eldest brother was strong, had a clever head, and was very good at swordsmanship. No matter what, I couldn't beat him, and my family always praised him, but they ignored me...... But I didn't hate my eldest brother, because my eldest brother was very kind to me. If there is something to eat, he will always give it to me first, and he will make me a wooden sword to teach me swordsmanship, and he will tell me stories at night to lull me to sleep...... Although I can't remember what my eldest brother looked like now, he was a hero of my childhood, the most important person I will never forget. I wanted to surpass him, but I couldn't surpass him – ever. ”

Ania was stunned, she asked the boss, "...... you said about your eldest brother?"

"Dead, and in battle." The boss looked at the moon in the sky, unlike the red moon that Zhen Xiang saw before, there was only one red moon, and there were three moons in the sky at this time. A red moon and two light-red smaller moons, although Zhen Xiang noticed it before but didn't ask, and then forgot about it and didn't ask.

"Do you know about the great war more than fifty years ago? A battle between humans and demons. The boss said to Aniah: "At that time, my eldest brother was nineteen years old, and in order to fight against the demons, many adult men were forced to join the army, and my eldest brother was naturally one of them. The eldest brother who joined the army died in the battle with the demons and never came back...... I've never been able to surpass him......"

Ania looked at the boss quietly, and for some reason a picture appeared in her head.

In the gloomy room, a man in a black magician's robe was sitting at a desk looking at a book in his hand, and ten-year-old Ania sat on his lap and followed him through the obscure magic book.

"Teacher." Ania suddenly raised her head and asked her teacher in her childish voice, "Teacher, you are the most powerful magician in the world, right?" ”

He shook his head, although he couldn't see the expression hidden under the magic hat, but he did smile in a slightly old voice: "The most powerful magician? Impossible, what's the best? I'm just an ordinary person, and the title of the most powerful magician, forget it......"

"Obviously you are the most powerful magician...... Ania puzzled, "Teacher, why do you keep hiding at home and don't want to go out?" Those bad guys in the temple, Teacher, you can make them all fall with just a wave of your magic staff, why should the teacher act so afraid of them? ”

The Dark Mage closed the book with a sigh ......of relief, and asked Ania again, "Aniah, do you want me to fight with the people of the Temple?" Do you want to see me knock them all down? ”

Ania nodded excitedly, "Yes!" Teacher! Let's go and take down all the villains of the Temple! ”

"And after that?" The Black Mage asked Aniah, "What should we do after that?" ”

What to do after that? Ania was stunned, she didn't understand why her teacher would ask such a thing.

The Dark Mage reached for Ania and touched Aniah's head and said, "Aniah, you're too young to know too much about things—I don't want you to be the kind of person who is prone to impulsiveness. Remember, impulses can never bring you anything, except for momentary pleasure, and all that remains is eternal pain. ”

Ania was puzzled: "But teacher, you have been bullied...... Why can't you fight back when you are bullied? ”

"Me? Am I being bullied......" The black mage scratched his head and smiled bitterly, "So it seems to you that I was being bullied...... You kid, if this can be called 'bullying', then what is the fact that I killed the Pope of the Temple? I killed their pope, but they just wouldn't let me out of the house, who was bullied worse than that? ”

Ania immediately retorted, "No! The teacher didn't kill the Pope! Teacher, you are so kind, someone must have killed you and blamed you. ”

"But so many people saw it with their own eyes, and it was I who killed the Pope."

"Teacher, you have been wronged!" Ania would not let her most admired teacher be misunderstood, and she would not allow her gods to be framed by those people. She puffed up her chest and said, "When I grow up, I will become a magician who is even more powerful than my teacher, and then I will clear your grievances for you - my teacher is the greatest person in the world, and he will not do that kind of murderous thing." ”

The black mage looked at this innocent child and couldn't help but laugh: "What about killing the dragon? ”

"Hmm...... Dragons aren't human, are they? ”

"No, but ...... Never mind. The black mage stretched out his little finger and said, "Then let's make a pity, Aniah, when you grow up, you must become the greatest magician in the world, a magician greater than the teacher and me." Then clear up the grievances for the teacher, how about it? ”

Ania then stretched out her little thumb to hook the teacher's little finger, which was a kind of covenant that the teacher had taught her, and although she had never seen anyone else do it, Ania liked it very much.

"Hanging on the hook for a hundred years is not allowed to change ......"

Looking down at her two little fingers that she had hooked together for some reason, Ania looked up at the boss next to her, who was scratching something on the ground with a stick.

Ania glanced at the words that the boss had drawn on the ground, and then asked, "Barnik...... Whose name is this? ”

"This? My eldest brother's name. The boss looked at the text in front of Ania that she had scribbled out and asked, "What kind of pattern is that?" It feels like a word. ”

"This?" Ania smiled: "This is the name of the most important person I just said......

Placing the uneaten biscuits on the stone, Ania sat up with Elizabeth and said to the boss, "Thank you for chatting with me, I feel much better now." ”

……

On the other side, head back to Hobson inside the palace. Looking at the crystal ball on the table in his room...... Crystal ball fragments.

It was the crystal ball that Zhen Xiang used to test his magic just now, but it became like this after returning to the palace and putting it down.

"Can't do it...... I might not have met a monster......"
