"Can I ask one more question?"

On the way, Elizabeth looked at Burton's back and whispered.

"Asked. ”

"Why do you want to save me? You can leave it unexposed. Elizabeth bit her lip and said that Burton's motivation for saving her was the problem that had been bothering her. You know, this is a slave city, Burton and the others still sneaked in, and it was really an unwise choice for them to reveal their identities.

Burton stopped, and he stood where he was, his eyes shining in a place where Elizabeth could not see.

After a while, Burton smiled slightly, "Because of one person." ”

"Because of a person?" replied Elizabeth, surprised.

"Yes, a person, a very important person. Burton's vision blurred, and the memories seemed to go back to that time.

The time from childhood to adulthood was full of darkness and light, despair and hope.

The Gloomy World, the Molten Tower.

As one of the oldest twelve temples of the Magic Guild, the Molten Flame Tower is not only a sacred place in the hearts of fire mages, but also represents the ultimate in magic.

And when it comes to the Molten Flame Tower, then we have to mention the element of flame.

Originally, the great mage who built the Molten Flame Tower collected all the materials and history related to the flames, filled them into the library, and left this vein.

Passed down to the present day, the Molten Flame Tower has become more and more brilliant in the new era.

The top management of the Molten Flame Tower is the Molten Chief, and there are many powerful and interesting guys in this generation of the Molten Flame Chief. Relying on their power, families are also rising.

And when it comes to the family, you can't bypass the Felix family, which started a hundred years ago, with the flame as the totem, and the generation is stronger than the next, so that there is the current situation. The head of this generation, who is already one hundred and thirty-eight years old, has the name of a fireworking mage.

In this year, the first child of Mulatu's youngest son was born, and according to tradition, Mulatu, who had looked through the family tree, named him Burton!

It was on this day that the situation changed, and the fate of the Felix family was in the hands of this child.

Burton has been in constant contact and fighting for as long as he can remember.

Don't look at the Felix family's beginnings with fire magic, but their training methods are comparable to the highest intensity warrior training!

This brought only pain and darkness to little Burton, which should have been the age of play, but he lost his nature early, aiming for the strongest, and kept training.

But this is not the most devastating thing for little Burton, the most desperate thing for him is from the family atmosphere.

The Felix family is very dull, very old-fashioned, and even more apathetic. The family had almost zero time to interact with each other, and they seemed to be busy with something every day, which was a headache for little Burton.

In addition, the nearly three hours of "studying" every night also frightened little Burton even more, and the brainwashing history and rituals deprived people of the ability to think.

If little Burton hadn't been strong-willed, he would have become a lackey of the giant slaves like those children.

That's right, from the very beginning, Burton Jr. knew his identity.

He is a giant slave, a descendant of the slaves of the ancient giants. But even if they were slaves, Mulatu and the others still felt very honored.

Because their ancestors once conquered the world with their masters!

Throughout history, the only empire that could create such a large territory was the giant court of the giant clan. Because of this, they felt that the bloodlines of the rest of the races were dirty and lowly, even if they were giant slaves, they were much more noble than those guys.

When he was a child, Burton may not have understood the meaning of the giant slave, but when he grew up, he understood it thoroughly.

Because in the Felix family, there are also slaves, and their status is almost zero, and they obey the orders of the supervisor every day and are busy in the house.

Slavery means the loss of freedom, and without freedom, there is no soul.

For the first time, Burton developed an aversion, an aversion to his identity. Why did he become a giant slave, why did he listen to a race he had never met?

At that time, the young Burton Jr. told his father about his doubts. What was waiting for him was not his father's careful and gentle response, but just a fist!

In the eyes of the older generation of giant slaves, calling the master by his name is also a special taboo.

After being beaten several times like bruises, little Burton learns to hide all his emotions, and he works harder to become a better person and thus gain the approval of his parents.

There is no doubt that this is a simple idea, naïve and ridiculous, and his hard life is not over at all.

At that time, little Burton's most hope was to have a good night's sleep and not be so tired every day.

Unfortunately, this would only be an extravagant hope.

Burton Jr. continued to work hard, training with many of the descendants of the elders of the family. The most outstanding of these was Duru, the eldest son of Patodi. Patodi was the eldest son of Mulatu!

According to the oldest bloodline inheritance of the giant slaves, the one who can inherit the position of the patriarch of the family in the future is Dulu.

This kind of internal determination also makes Burton Jr. feel uncomfortable, like a referee telling you who the champion is before a match starts.
