Chapter 6: Hope

"Whew...... What is this power of awakening? Magic? It is also an unknown mysterious power. ”

I sat alone in the corner of the moonlight tavern and muttered to myself, but there was no answer in the empty corner, in stark contrast to the noisy gladiatorial arena in the tavern, I really couldn't think of what it was like to be human, so I could only helplessly raise the wine glass in my hand and drink the Tom wine in the wine glass little by little.

"Since I, a magician from the Arad Continent, can't even perceive this power, it has nothing to do with magical power, but it's amazing that you can unleash magic-like flames."

The hollow voice behind me made me frightened for a while, and subconsciously turned my head to rely on perception to find an old man with gray hair, a horned hat was worn by the old man on his head, a pair of cloudy eyes seemed to have endless knowledge, the most peculiar thing was the old man's beard, which had grown to the point that it was about to drag on the ground, and when I saw the old man, I hurriedly sat up from the ground, bowed deeply to the old man and said respectfully:

"How did you get out of that place? Could something have changed? ”

The old man patted Gsd's shoulder to signal his relaxation, pointed to the row of seats next to him, and said:

"Blindness in both eyes does not affect your movements in the slightest, and the unknown force you perceive makes me very curious, and I came out of there specifically to find you."

The old man led me to my seat, ordered two glasses of fruit wine leisurely, and when I sat down carefully, the old man said again:

"I've investigated everything you perceived before this power, I was picked up from Glen Grove when I was a child, I was infected by chance at the age of 12, and since then I have been playing with the children in the back block, forming a deep friendship with Hunter and others, and we have made a wish to become the warriors who protect Hutton Marr."

After talking a lot, the old magician man raised the wine glass on the table and drank it down, turned his head to look at the Gsd with a low face, sighed lightly and said again:

"After years of growing up, you also became a swordsman, although not as powerful as Hunter and them, but you still trained in swordsmanship as always, until that day when they mocked you for only fighting with theory, you entered the Gran Forest alone, and the phenomenon of ghost hands went berserk, which also led to the mutant goblins hidden in the Thundering Forest, and then to the lightning attack on you and blinded your eyes, this is the situation before I investigated you."

I suddenly realized what the old magician said, frowned and looked at the ghost hand that did not move, and then looked at the old man with a puzzled look and asked:

"Are you saying that the power of awakening is caused by the sudden mutation of the ghost hand? Could it be the power of the ghost god Kazan? That's not right! If I were to go berserk, I would become a bloodthirsty monster, but I've recovered from my bloodthirsty state, what the hell is going on? ”

The old man's palm, which was as white as a girl, grabbed Gsd's ghost hand, and the original smiling eyes finally changed, and the old man's solemn face almost stunned me, if I have anything to make his face change suddenly, then it can only be a huge disaster in the Arad continent, and I stammered with a stunned face:

"Big ...... Archmage, I ...... What the hell is wrong with me? Don't scare me. ”

I stammered, and the old man didn't seem to hear clearly, or he heard clearly but didn't want to answer me, and after a full hour, the old man put down my arm, looked at my young cheeks, and let out a long sigh of relief, and said:

"Didn't you notice that your left arm had changed? The original dark purple ghost hands have all turned dark red, and the ghost hands that were originally like withered branches have also become stronger, what surprises me even more is that there seems to be something in your ghost hands, I perceive that there is elemental power in your ghost hands, they flow in your body with ghost hands as a medium, and when you want to fight with them, they will instantly condense together, in order to achieve a state that echoes the surrounding elements, and burst out with amazing and terrifying magical damage, which is too different from magical knowledge, this is the latest power in the Arad continent, I call them " Elements in Waves", what do you think of the name? Bub. ”

Listening to the old magician's understanding of his ghost hand, I looked at the dark red ghost hand blankly and didn't know what to do, just when my mind was extremely confused, the old magician's words sounded again:

"No matter how powerful you are in the future, no matter how high your achievements are in the future, you just need to remember that sentence, that is, you made a wish when you were a child - to protect the peace of Huttonmar and become the guardian of the Arad continent."

The old man's words were deeply imprinted in my mind, giving me new hope in my mutilated life, and the determination to work hard again after being reborn, and when I came back to my senses and wanted to thank the old man, I found that the seat next to me was long gone, only a glass of freshly added fruit wine, and a tattered weapon.

The disappearance of the legendary magician old man cooled my excitement a lot, I looked at the worn-out short sword on the wine table, scratched my head and slowly picked it up, only to see that the worn-out short sword was covered with magic marks, and even the broken blade was corresponding to the magic mark, but this seemed to me at the time It was too flashy, and besides, such a worn-out short sword was really unreachable, and it was not as good and practical as the "Thundering Sword" on my waist, since I didn't send a good weapon, It's too embarrassing to take out such a bad dagger in your hand, so let's put it in a storage backpack and keep it.

After drinking the fruit wine on the table, he called the waiter, took out the few small gold coins left and paid the waiter, and prepared to go back to the hut in the back street of Hutton Marr to rest, but suddenly an adventurer who rushed into the tavern crashed into my body, and the huge impact force made my whole body fly, and then fell heavily to the butt squat, the pain in the ass made me stand up directly to teach the adventurer a lesson, when I walked to the adventurer's side, I found that he was dying.

"You...... What's going on, hurry! Go to church and call the clergy, this man is seriously injured. ”

I shouted a few times in a panic and found that no one had started to act, I looked at the indifferent drunkards with an angry face, turned and ran outside the tavern, and said:

"You wait, I'll bring the clergy over soon, you hold on......"

A blood-soaked arm quickly grabbed my bare feet, and I made a hard contact with the floor again, and when I was about to get up, a faint voice came to my ears:

"Warriors...... Don't bother, I'm not going to do it anymore, our young lady was kidnapped by thieves on the way to Northmar, please help our young lady, we will give you a lot of payment, as long as it is ......"

"Hey! Ay! You ......"

The adventurer who hadn't finished his words swallowed his last breath unwillingly, looked at the adventurer lying on the ground with a confused expression, and suddenly found that the ring in his hand was not the badge of the Hunter family? Could it be that Hunter's relatives were kidnapped? No, I had to talk to Hunter quickly, gently put down the adventurer's body, and I quickly ran towards Hunter's cottage.
