Ivan Manor, the most famous farm outside of Kyoto, has dozens of miles of fertile land and a magnificent castle.

This manor is about sixty years old, and the imperial capital of the Magic Empire not far away has long since disappeared, and in exchange for a new beautiful city, Kyoto Castle, a spectacular red castle, stands on a hill a little farther away, overlooking the entire Morro River Plain.

The Scholars of the Coalition established this new empire, and all the civilians south of the Morro River were citizens of this country. Ivan Manor, this ancient manor, is one of the most famous farm farms outside of Kyoto.

Ivan III, the owner of the estate, was in his early thirties this year, and when he was born, a large number of fertile fields had been cultivated around the estate, and hundreds of tenant farmers were raised.

Ivan III, also known as Little Ivan, was the first born third-generation member of the family, and his grandfather, Ivan Sr., had his first child when he was fifty years old, and when he was in his seventies, he had Little Ivan. On the day little Ivan was born, old Ivan was as happy as a child, completely lacking the laziness of a seventy-year-old.

Because of his grandfather's love, little Ivan, since he was a child, followed the old Ivan, lived in the big room on the top floor of the castle, from the window of the house, you can directly see the Red Fort that has just been built in the distance, that noble and superior momentum, so that little Ivan is fascinated.

At this time, old Ivan would hold little Ivan on his lap and tell him stories from the past with a smile.

"At that time, Kyoto City was not called Kyoto City, and the Red Fort was just a large forest on the hills. At that time, there were some magnificent buildings, all kinds of colors of light lingered around the whole city, countless small devices floated in the air, that great city, called the imperial capital..."

Little Ivan listened to his grandfather's stories of the past, and since he was a child, he was full of longing for that country that has disappeared. However, at the same time, the countries on the continent gradually became hostile to magic, and the hunters of the adventurer's guild rushed to the mainland to capture the remnants of magicians. Every now and then, old Ivan always trembled and got angry, "It's not magic that's bad, it's people's hearts, you don't understand!"

Of course, the family didn't understand why old Ivan was angry, at that time old Ivan was already old and confused, and half of the day was reminiscing about the past that he couldn't figure out the year, of course, no one in the family wanted to take care of him, at this time, everyone was thinking about when they could divide the family property. Of course, little Ivan didn't understand these things.

On a sunny afternoon, old Ivan lay in the window of his room at the top of the castle basking in the red sun, and little Ivan lay on the ground playing pétanque. The pétanque ball is a small ball made of wood, specially for children to play, little Ivan throws the ball, rolls around, and has a lot of fun.

Old Ivan's room was large and furnished, with a huge court bed and exquisite pear wood furniture. Little Ivan's ball, rolling and rolling, accidentally rolled under the big closet. The wardrobe of pear blossom wood is very heavy, of course little Ivan can't push it, the space at the bottom of the cabinet is very small, and little Ivan can't get in.

Hearing little Ivan's cry, old Ivan came back to his senses, and the doting old Ivan got up with difficulty and walked over to see if he could help little Ivan get the ball out.

However, before Old Ivan could make a move, Little Ivan's rapidly waving hands suddenly stopped, as if he had caught something out of thin air, and his crying stopped. I only heard a clanging sound, and a wooden ball that was dripping and spinning flew out of the bottom of the cabinet and flew directly to the palm of little Ivan's hand. Grabbing the ball, little Ivan laughed happily.

Old Ivan looked at his grandson in shock, his clear eyes didn't look like an old man with a clear mind at all, he was agitated and rushed to little Ivan, "How did you do it?"

Little Ivan, of course, didn't understand what his grandfather was doing, but just grabbed the wooden ball and laughed. Old Ivan felt his face moistened, and a salty taste flowed to the corners of his mouth.

The people in Ivan's manor didn't know what was going on, they only knew that old Ivan somehow suddenly came to his senses, as if he was rejuvenated, and he was very happy every day. Little Ivan is even more favored, even Little Ivan's parents rarely see him, an old man and a young man, always hiding in the top room of the castle, not knowing what they are doing.

A few years later, the elder Ivan died, and under his arrangement, the young Ivan was sent to Kyoto City to study, and the family did not know that the place where Ivan Jr. went to school was not the Royal Academy as everyone imagined, but the only remaining building in the city, the San Jose Library.

Yes, little Ivan, the old Ivan's favorite grandson, has become the only heir of the new generation of the family to inherit the magical talent of the old Ivan, and like the old Ivan, he also learns the space magic of the spiritual magic. At that time, the team of court magicians in San Jose was not too small, and many of them were the direct inheritance of the previous generation of magicians.

Of course, San Jose's censorship was not easy, and he had to be proven innocent of any crimes before he was allowed to enter the Great Library to study magic.

But little Ivan didn't have this trouble, the identity of old Ivan was well hidden all his life, and when little Ivan was sent to the court magician for certification, he reported that his identity was a child of a landlord's family in San Jose, and he didn't even have the status of a nobleman. Fortunately, at that time, the research of the Magic Empire was very deep, and many people with magical talents were considered to be naturally awakened. Little Ivan is also classified into this category.

So more than ten years passed in a hurry, little Ivan grew into a young and handsome young man, the beard at the corners of his mouth was already dense, his father had died, and little Ivan, that is, Ivan III, became the owner of the manor.

In the team of court magicians, little Ivan did not have a comfortable life. Unlike what my grandfather said, the magicians in the court magician team were more like scholars than magicians. In the last years of his life, the elder Ivan told his grandson a lot of stories about the Magic Empire, and little Ivan was greatly affected.

However, after becoming an official court magician, little Ivan discovers that the magic is not what his grandfather said it is. After spending more than ten unpleasant years in the city of Kyoto, little Ivan returned to the Ivan Manor, and from then on, the tenant farmers found the owner of the manor and locked themselves in the best room of the manor castle, the house that once belonged to his grandfather, and which rarely appeared in everyone's eyes day after day.

No one knew that in the top room of this manor, little Ivan was already immersed in the world of magic. Old Ivan's magic level was very average back then, and when he died, he was only at the level of a junior magician, and he didn't make any progress in the last 40 years of his life. But then again, if his magic strength was stronger, it is estimated that he would have been buried with the Magic Empire.

Little Ivan's talent is better, and from the court magician, he has already obtained the title of middle-level mage and won the qualification to wear silver-rimmed mage robes. When he returned home, he studied the magic materials he had brought back from Kyoto Castle day and night, as well as some magical notes left behind by his grandfather, and in just a few decades, his magic strength had surpassed that of most people in San Jose at the time, and like his grandfather, he was proficient in the spatial magic branch of spiritual magic.

In order to test magic, little Ivan even used his powerful magic power to open up a huge spiritual space under his manor, and used a magical magic array to permanently solidify this spiritual space, so in little Ivan's old age, he almost no longer appeared in front of his family and tenant farmers, as if he had disappeared from the manor.

Disappeared with little Ivan, as well as some of his grandchildren, at this time, more than a hundred years have passed since the fall of the Magic Empire.

There are about five grandchildren who disappeared with little Ivan, there are direct young masters, there are also collateral descendants, and even one is the child of a tenant farmer in the manor, no one knows what the owner of the manor wants to take them to do, only know that one day, little Ivan suddenly announced this decision, just gave the child's parents a night of goodbye, and took these children into his spiritual space.

Time flies, another twenty years have passed, and at this time, one hundred and fifty years have passed since the fall of the Magic Empire, and the countries on the continent are constantly at odds, and wars are breaking out in all corners of the continent every moment. San Jose, the emerging nation built on the corpse of the Magic Empire, has become a powerhouse second to none through its own efforts.

One day, the servants who were working hard in the manor, and the owners who were enjoying life in the manor, suddenly found that the room on the top floor of the manor belonged to the owner of the manor, and suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and after a loud noise, several strange middle-aged people walked out of the gate of the manor.

Several old people in the manor rubbed their eyes and stared at the strangers, and finally one of them, looking at one of the middle-aged people, asked uncertainly, "Are you, are you Young Master Cote?" The other party did not speak, but nodded silently.

The news shook the owners of the manor like a shockwave. These middle-aged people, who disappeared with old Ivan (Ivan III), and now appear mysteriously, everyone is curious about what happened back then. However, several people did not say anything, but returned to the peaceful life of the manor.

Of course, no one knew that in the dead of night, these people would gather together and return to the spiritual space opened up by little Ivan to study magic. They are all the inheritors of little Ivan's magic, and they have all become magicians.

So, time flies, time flies, and year by year. Ivan Manor is still an ordinary farm farm outside Kyoto, and no more people know what happened here.
