"Long time no see. Elizabeth nodded and smiled, "You seem to have been busy lately, not only intercepting the fleets sent overseas by the Church, but even the heretics on the island have disappeared without a trace. ”

Benjamin shrugged.

"This ...... I didn't say I did it. ”

"Who else but you can do it?" Elizabeth seemed to sigh with emotion, "This is the latest news from the Kingdom of Hori, the Pope is furious about it, and many people have been implicated in it, and there are two hundred priests demoted. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin was a little surprised.

Is it just a failure of an overseas sect, and the church could have concealed the matter and resolved it privately, but if it has to do this, is it not afraid that their prestige will be damaged?

But...... If they want to die, let them go.

In the dark, Benjamin felt that his days of belonging to the church were coming to an end.

"So...... Does the Wood family have any new plans?" he asked.

"There are some plans, but before that, I have a few old friends to introduce. Elizabeth lowered her head and said slowly, "They had visited the academy before, but you didn't seem to be there at the time, and after being rebuffed, you left Akademi, and now you are settled in the village to the north. ”

Benjamin frowned, "What kind of people, can't you invite them to the academy?"

"No, they're from the Mage Inheritance Society, and each of them is a very powerful older mage with a bad temper. I didn't see anyone when I came to visit before, so I was a little angry and left. Speaking of this, Elizabeth paused casually, and her tone suddenly became a little subtle, "And...... There's one of them, and I think you'd better meet it. ”

Benjamin didn't care about the second half of the sentence, but fell into doubt, and a lot of question marks popped up in his heart.

...... What is that?

He asked the system in his heart, and the system said that it had not heard of this organization, and it must be a bull ghost and snake god that came out of the horns, and it was not worth mentioning.

So, he had no choice but to ask the question to Elizabeth.

"Actually, I don't know much about the Mage Inheritance Society. Elizabeth said, "I've heard...... It is a group of geniuses who have been passed down thousands of years ago and have always been in seclusion, with a mission to protect and pass on magical knowledge. Because they have always kept a low profile, only a small number of people are aware of the existence of this organization. ”

As she spoke, she took out a letter and handed it to Benjamin, saying, "This is their letter of introduction, written by the head of Ikol's Mage Guild, so I think it should be credible." ”

Benjamin took the letter and read it roughly, and it was indeed the president's handwriting and special ink, which was difficult to forge. As for the content of the letter, it is similar to the one that Elizabeth has just introduced.

It's just that...... He was still thinking about the Mage Inheritance Society.

"Thousands of years?" he exclaimed, "That's about the same length of magic history, isn't it?"

Elizabeth looked helpless and said, "These questions ...... I think you'd better leave it to them. ”

Benjamin heard this and nodded.

If such an organization is the case, then it is indeed necessary for him to meet with them, and if possible, it is better to invite them to join the Academy, so that the thousands of years of magical knowledge can become the treasure of the Academy.

In this way, Benjamin immediately set off and followed Elizabeth to the village to the north—it was not a long way, and he didn't need to prepare anything, and it took him a few dozen minutes to fly.

"It's this room, and a couple of old people are in it. ”

Finally, Elizabeth led him to the dark room of a tavern, pointed to the door, and thus said.

Benjamin nodded. On the way here, he ensured the safety of his surroundings with the water elemental sensing method, but since the other party was a powerful mage, he might be detected by his rash snooping and cause disgust to the other party, so he didn't go into the room.

He just knocked lightly on the door.

"Who?"

An old, caustic voice came from inside the door. It's just that I don't know why, Benjamin is inexplicably a little familiar, and it feels weird.

"The Dean of the Academy of Magic, come and visit. He didn't think much of it, and replied in a more humble tone.

"Hmm...... Come on in. ”

With a click, the lock opened from the inside, and Benjamin gently pushed open the door of the dark compartment and entered the room with Elizabeth.

The room was not very visible, the light was a little dim, only an oil lamp on the table illuminated. Benjamin frowned when he first entered, but immediately set his eyes on the three figures in the room.

Everyone was dressed in pitch-black cloaks, wrapped in the shadow of their hoods, and their faces could not be seen clearly. Benjamin immediately sensed keenly that two of them had very strong spiritual power, and a large number of elements surrounded them like satellites, even if they were just sitting silently, they had a compelling momentum.

As for the last one...... Benjamin was a little strange, he couldn't sense any mental power from that person, and he didn't have any elemental movements, as if it was just an ordinary person who couldn't do magic.

And this is the one who is most like an ordinary person, but he is the first of the three to speak:

"Today's young people have a little ability, and the shelf is too big to be good, and we old people come to visit us and give us a look, alas, ......"

Slowly, snarky and even innocent, she said as she flipped the hood of her cloak down, revealing an old and noble face.

“......”

Benjamin was stunned.

For some reason, the atmosphere in the whole room seemed to freeze. Seeing this, the three members of the Mage Inheritance Association were a little puzzled, and exchanged a puzzled look with each other. Elizabeth was the only one standing by the door, with a natural expression on her face, and she didn't look surprised at all.

The freeze-like silence lasted for about half a minute.

"Ahem...... Your Excellency, what's wrong with you?" the other cloaked man couldn't stand it anymore, and coughed dryly before Benjamin finally came back from his stunned state.

However, what they don't know is that Benjamin is not stunned for half a minute, but is frantically communicating with the system about something in his heart.

"Is ......it a coincidence? I guess I'm not mistaken, right?"

"What do you want me to say about this? I analyzed it against the database, and in terms of facial features alone, it is indeed exactly the same, and when it comes to personality, it is even more the same. It's just that everything is possible, and there may be two people in the world who look exactly the same, how can I give you a 100% answer?"

"Not 100 percent, you give me a chance. ”

"That'...... Ninety-nine percent of the time, it's her. ”

Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Just in time for the dry cough to call him back from his stunned state, he raised his head and looked at the old woman from the Mage Inheritance Society, his heart mixed with absurdity and disbelief, and at the same time inexplicably more nervous.

Actually...... Actually......

He couldn't believe it even now.

However, the living person was placed in front of him like this, and he could only swallow a mouthful of saliva, scratch the back of his head, and throw the attitude of recruiting talents at the beginning to the clouds, and said hesitantly:

“...... Grandma?"
