Chapter 226: Behind Every Successful Person Is a Tragic Story
Talent is innate, some people can already pick up a hundred just by holding a sword, some people can easily release magic after reading a few magic books, and some people can easily refine all kinds of potions just after trying alchemy a few times. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
But since there are such gifted people, there must also be people who are not gifted, and the genius that exists in every era is limited. Sylvia had seen a lot of talented people, but at the age of sixteen, she could reach the level of mastery, and she could rank among the many geniuses she had seen, but in fact, Eleanor had little talent for magic.
Looking at the silent Sylvia, Eleanor continued, "I was born in a small village in the southern continent of Mystr, and there are no strong magicians in the village. Every year, teachers from nearby city colleges come to the villages to find gifted children to teach magic. The age of the test is from four to six years old, although some children may not be gifted because they are too young, but in any case, the talent is also fixed at the age of six. I was tested once when I was six years old, but my talent disappointed everyone in my family, even my strongest fire attribute affinity was only the lower intermediate level, even if I was provided with the best resources, supplemented by the best teachers, I could only reach the elite level at the end of my life. ”
Greensbell didn't know when he had gone out of the room, leaving only Sylvia and Eleanor talking, it seemed that he was going to leave the matter of understanding Eleanor to Sylvia, Sylvia didn't speak, he just looked at Eleanor quietly, waiting for her to continue.
Eleanor took a breath and continued, "But I'm not reconciled! The partner I grew up with was found to have a median mid-level affinity for the water element, so he was easily admitted to the academy, and he could also reduce a certain amount of tuition fees every year. As for me, even if I want to enroll, I have to pay a lot of extra fees, not to mention that I have to continue to pay tuition every year after that, and my family is just an ordinary farmer, but there is no way to come up with so much money. ”
"Although I am very unwilling, I have no choice but to learn the simplest and most basic magic from the village chief. And my dismal magical talent has also manifested itself in these three or four years, ordinary people can sense the magic in nature in a month or two, and at most half a year can also guide the natural magic into their own body to form a magic vortex through perception. I almost did it one year, but it took me three full years to guide my own magic vortex, and it took me eight months to learn the most basic magic of magic archer. ”
After listening to her story, Sylvia also understood Eleanor's dismal talent at that time, and it took eight months to learn magic marksmanship, and the only thing that could be praised should be her perseverance. Of course, Sylvia has also seen people who are even less talented than Eleanor back then, but have achieved legendary figures.
For example, the 'Supreme Fist' Damont, this legendary powerhouse basically can't sense any magic elements, and his most prominent earth attribute affinity is only a low-level level, it took him a full twelve years to condense the magic vortex, he has not had any adventures, just rely on his own solid cultivation, now he is more than two hundred years old, he has become a legendary powerhouse, and he is still the number one powerhouse among the legendary demon warriors.
At this point, Eleanor suddenly stopped talking, she lowered her head and stared at the coffee in the cup silently, and after about ten minutes of silence, she sighed and continued: "Then something more happened, my village was attacked, and a large number of demons escaped from a small abyss crack. My uncle, my aunt, the village chief who taught me magic, and my parents, were torn to shreds and devoured clean. Just as these demons were about to swarm me and tear me apart, several people fell from the sky and killed all of them, and they were members of the organization I am working for now, members of the Eye of Time and Space. ”
"Although they accepted me and let me live in the Eye of Time and Space residency temporarily, I also wanted to do my part to resist the abyss, but after receiving the best teachers and the best guidance in the organization, I still didn't achieve anything after three years of cultivation. I was already twelve years old at the time, and even if I randomly found an ordinary family in an ordinary city and picked out a child with ordinary talents, I should be able to enter the vortex level after receiving my teaching. But my magic is still the same as it was three years ago, when I was in complete despair, and in desperation, I participated in an experiment in the organization......"
Looking at Eleanor, who couldn't speak, Sylvia stood up and reached out to touch her head, and then said: "It's okay, tell the teacher, everyone is willing to have a black history of the past that they don't want to mention, and when I have the opportunity one day, I will tell you about my black history." The choice I made at that time was much more terrible than you imagined, you just chose another path that would hurt you for your own strength, but you didn't hurt anyone else. So don't worry, just say it, it doesn't matter. ”
Taking a deep breath, Eleanor continued: "You can probably guess what happened next, Teacher, I chose to accept that experiment, they modified a very old mark, and then transformed it into a human mark. And I was one of the volunteers, there were a total of 60 people who participated in the experiment, all of them were carefully selected, and I was one of the least talented, and the strength was also one of the lower ones, but I was the only one who succeeded in the end. Although this engraving was successfully completed, it also had considerable side effects, and as you know, teacher, it can indeed enhance my fire attribute affinity, but the feeling of being burned by flames at any time is not good. ”
Sylvia nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you find a way, whether it's improving the marking, or strengthening your body, I won't let you get hurt again, I'll leave this matter to me." ”
Grimsbell, who had already walked out, pushed open the door and came back, and said to the two, "Are you two done talking? )
