Hearing this, the old lady thought for a while and said, "You mean my grandson who studied divine arts?"

Benjamin nodded.

"What's wrong with him?"

"The Fall of the House of Reese...... It was exactly what he ordered. Benjamin lowered his voice and said slowly, "I still don't understand why he became like this. ”

And as for the true cause of Claude's death, he could not even say it to the old lady.

However, when the old lady heard this, she only let out an "oh" and did not show any emotion. Although he knew that she had lost her memories of the past, Benjamin felt a moment of astonishment when he saw this.

"Grandma, you ...... Aren't you sad?"

"I don't remember anything. The old lady tilted her head, her expression was even a little boring, "Young people are very powerful nowadays, who cares what we old people are thinking." ”

"But you're his elder anyway, if he knows you're still alive, and as a mage, maybe ...... That will change now. ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. The old lady showed a somewhat sarcastic expression, and said in a long tone, "You are also my grandson, I asked you to close the magic academy, will you close it?"

“......”

Benjamin was speechless.

Once again, he underestimated the difficulty of negotiating with the old lady, and even more strangely, why did she hate the magic academy so much, just because she was closed to the door when she visited?

"Your Excellency, she is still in the recovery period of her mental strength, so you don't have to pay too much attention to what she says. The mage on the side came over to play the round and said, "In a few years, when the backlash of the forbidden art has almost subsided, she will return to normal, remembering all the things that have happened in the past." You don't have to worry. ”

"Really......"

Benjamin shook his head helplessly when he heard this.

However, in the current situation, her son was killed by her grandson, and her two grandsons also stood on opposite sides of the position, and if she wanted to fight to the death, maybe it would be best for her that the old lady didn't remember anything.

The old mage continued: "In addition, we have made a special trip to visit the Academy of Magic, in fact, there are some things we want to communicate with you. ”

Benjamin came back to his senses and nodded, "You say." ”

The reunion with the old lady was completely accidental, and at the same time, as members of the Mage Inheritance Society, these three people made a special trip to the door to definitely have other serious matters.

The old mage smiled silently, glancing in the direction of Elizabeth by the door. Elizabeth understood, smiled at the few people in the room, opened the door, and turned to leave the dark room of the tavern.

Suddenly, only Benjamin and the three members of the Mage Legacy were left in the room.

"Allow us to introduce ourselves well. I am the current leader of the Mage Legacies, and you can call me Master Yarman. The old mage, who had taken on all the conversations, flipped down his hood to reveal a kind and righteous face, "That's Master Barton over there, and the last one...... I don't think I need to introduce it. ”

Benjamin nodded, shaking hands with Old Mage Yarman, while also nodding to the other mage. The old Mage Barton didn't say anything, he rolled down his hood, revealing a fierce face, and snorted in response.

"What are you here for?"

"We've heard that the Academy of Magic has been conducting research on runes. Mage Yarman spoke slowly, "Using something called the Rune Defense Array, I fended off the lions of the Horry Kingdom in Rock City, and also developed a meditation method using runes...... What we're trying to say is that runes aren't the kind of thing that can be easily controlled. ”

Benjamin frowned.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little serious.

"What do you want to say?"

"The misuse of runes will invite calamity, this is the warning left to us by our ancestors. Yarman said solemnly, "Your current use has not yet formed a scale, so everything is still beautiful." However, once runes are popularized on a large scale, the elemental activity in the world will undergo very terrible changes. ”

“...... Such as?"

"Elemental disasters will become extremely frequent. Fires, floods, unpredictable earthquakes...... What you may not know is that at the beginning of magic, every mage could cast spells with runes, but all kinds of disasters followed. The natural flow of the elements has been disrupted, the environment has become extremely harsh, and people have had to fight for very few resources, which is why there have been so many wars on this continent in the past. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin touched his chin, but didn't say anything.

Can runes cause elemental scourges...... They haven't experienced this kind of thing. Benjamin himself has suffered a lot because of the runes, but it is often confined to his consciousness space and does not affect reality.

Obviously, it wasn't a good thing that the Mage Inheritance would come to the door this time. They thought that the runes would cause a terrible calamity, so they came to warn him.

It's just that...... Rune research has become a top priority for the Academy, and Benjamin can't just let go of his biggest hole card.

Seeing this, Yarman persuaded again: "I know you may have a hard time believing it, but ...... Do you know how the mage is the voice of the devil, and some two thousand years ago, the misuse of runes and the Elemental Scourge nearly ruined the world, and everyone hated magic and had to rely on it. Therefore, in the context of that era, the church will grow rapidly and unite all mankind to suppress mages. ”

"Yes...... The church didn't really suppress the mage, and the only territory it occupied was the kingdom of Hori. ”

"That's because the church has long since declined. Yarman swore solemnly, "The Holy Light Church that is now active in our Kingdom of Horry is actually just a product of the pre-church era. The first churches were spread across the continent, and their central ideas had nothing to do with worshipping gods and chasing power, but only to quell the chaos of the elements. Later, as the runes were gradually banned, the elemental catastrophe disappeared, and some of the Holy Light worshippers became more and more fanatical, which eventually led to the split of that church, forming the current Holy Light Church. ”

Benjamin was still puzzled: "But what you said, it seems that even the church itself has no relevant records." They attributed their origins to Cain and Abel, to the first pope who had drawn the sword. ”

"That's because they've gone down the path of god worship, and in order to get rid of the so-called distinction between magic and magic, they have had to clean up everything they had about their predecessors. Yarman replied, "As for ...... Cain and Abel, who were characters from 5,000 years ago, were the pioneers of rune magic. However, it is recorded that the reason for the brother's rebellion has nothing to do with God, but is simply a personal disagreement and competing interests, and the Holy Light Church only uses this story to whitewash its own legitimacy. ”

"The Valley of God's Forsaken ......"

"It was the site of a decisive battle between the two brothers and a large number of their men, and the original site was located on the site of what is now the prison in Havenley. It was also recorded that it was the first time that too many mages had gathered together and misused the runes to cause an elemental disaster. The furious elementals tore through time and space, and the entire valley disappeared without a trace. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath and show a bit of caution.
