Chapter 1 Is Genius Really the Protagonist?

Next Chapter

It was a dilapidated village surrounded by mountains, and the only link to the outside world was a pass in the surrounding mountains. There is a dilapidated thatched hut on the outskirts of the village of Yamalen, where there is an orphan named Kirkel, although his parents died early, but because of the help of the villagers and his own hard work, he can live to the age of fifteen, which can change the fork in the road.

"Kirkel, come play. Tomorrow the big men in the city will pick us up, and we may never come back. Charles shouted into the room.

Charles Charlie, born in a good family, his beloved family gave him the best living environment, and the connection with the outside world still exists so that his clothing matching has always been on the road of fashion, even if it is just a popular little tail. Coupled with a handsome face, deep eyes and bright blonde hair, many underage and special fetish women have a good impression of it.

"But, what if I don't choose it?" Kirker put down the knit in his hand, his face was deeply uneasy, and his scattered heart couldn't even weave a mat, which was a product that would be delivered tomorrow.

"Don't worry, look at it, my body is so strong, how can I not be chosen, of course you will be able to choose if you have been by my side, and at that time, we will definitely be able to become nobles!" Charles said proudly after showing off his body, which was considered strong among his peers, even if no one around him would praise him.

"Come out and play, then you won't have to make up all these poor things, and then you'll only worry about what designer clothes you will wear tomorrow and whose banquet you will attend. Charles excitedly.

"But・・・・・・" Kirker was reluctant to give up the slices in his hand, and he had already made up nearly eighty percent, and he was afraid that he would be able to finish it when he came back.

"Hurry up!" Charles's tone stiffened, not as cordially as a call to a friend, but as an order to a servant.

When Kirker heard this, he knew that if he didn't go out again, he was afraid that he would make Charles angry. Hurriedly tidy up your hands and feet, patting the dirt on your body, so that the clothes full of patches on your body are not so shabby.

"Ah, Master Charles, you went to find this beggar again, you are really kind, take care of him like this. The passers-by on the side flattered him, and the clothes on his body were the clothes that Charles's family took back from outside.

Charles is in the limelight wherever he goes, and he lifts his chin high and shakes it three times, as if this is the only way to reflect his identity. Kirker had always felt that this way of walking was somewhat similar to Uncle Avix's goose, and he couldn't help but wonder: Do people in the city walk like this?

Kirker thought about the scene in the city, and the big geese in colorful clothes came and went in the streets・・・・・・ and couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile.

Charles was puzzled when he saw Kirker's movements, but it didn't matter, Charles wouldn't pay attention to the idea of a servant, and he came out with Kirkle just to show himself, which proved to be a good effect, and could get the same compliments from different crowds.

"Hey, do you know what a big guy looks like?" said Charles, abruptly. There is no preface, no afterword, it seems to be a very inexplicable sentence, but Kirkel knows that it is said to himself.

Of course, Kirkel could only shake his head, how could he possibly know the world outside the village, the rugged and difficult mountain road was really difficult, except for the Charles family, they seemed to have a special method.

The smile on Charles's face arced even more: "I know you don't know, I tell you, the big man outside the village is a magician." ”

"Magician!" Kirkle was immediately shocked and couldn't take a step, "isn't that a story that only exists in fantasy novels?"

"Hehe, only you, a countryman, would think so, let me tell you, that really exists, they move casually, they will flood the mountains and seas, and if they move again, the earth will shake the mountains!"

"Wow!" can only sigh, the poor Kirker has no words to express the surging in his heart.

"And I'm going to go into the city to be a magician!" Charles looked into the distance, as if he had become a magician, and said to himself: "Then I can live in a palace house, with hundreds of maids, and the nobles will all beg me・・・・・・"

Kirker didn't understand what a magician was, and it was impossible to judge whether what Charles said was true or false, it was beyond Kirker's imagination, and Kirker thought that he could never have this kind of unrealistic thing.

"Is it possible・・・・・・ "Is it possible?" Kirk felt more and more uneasy, or I would not participate tomorrow, what if I lost face? Will those legendary magicians get angry when they see me dressed like this? Will they think that I have no respect for them? Kirk could not control his negative thoughts from breeding wildly.

Charles looked at Kirker with a sneer in his heart, his face was pale, his expression was flustered, his barren figure was all this a constant sign to Charles that Kirker could not be a magician. In fact, Charles is not absolutely that Kirkel can be a magician, Charles just needs a foil, a foil who can prove that he is on it.

The next day-

The whole village was in such an uproar as it had never been seen on the Founding Day, and every family brought out their best food and rushed to Charles's house to celebrate the arrival of the magician, and Kirkel sat on the threshold, hesitating.

"I didn't expect there to be such delicious food in this small mountain village, village chief—" A man dressed in a black mage robe took a bite of the dish and praised, while Inava heard the magician's call and cautiously walked to his side with a flattering smile: "Please command." ”

"Well done. ”

The magician's name was Giles, and he was just an ordinary magician in Birk City, and because of this, he was assigned the task of finding qualified children under the age of fifteen in relatively remote places, and this village of Yamaren was just one of them.

"Master Xie complimented. "Inawa Charlie bowed his waist deeply as a sign of respect.

"Look, my lord, this is a dog. Inava beckoned to Charles. Charles, who was arrogant and domineering outside and had always felt that he was superior, also became obedient at this time, standing straight in front of the magician, with his limbs closed, and a standard military posture.

"Greetings, my lord!" Charles bowed, his voice quite loud.

Giles stared at Charles's gaze from top to bottom, Charles didn't dare to move, and even his breathing was a lot lighter.

"Yes, yes, it seems that he has the qualifications to become a magician. Giles smiled and nodded, in fact, Giles didn't know, but just said casually, qualification is not something that Giles can control.

But Inawa believed it, and the old tears that were almost excited rose horizontally, and it took a lot of effort to endure it, and he was more enthusiastic.

Charles was just an ordinary fifteen-year-old boy, no matter how much he tried to control it, he didn't have the concentration, and the corners of his mouth and his eyes were squinted, and he couldn't put it away anymore.

After receiving the wind and washing the dust, it is to find out who is qualified to become a magician, the method is very simple, as long as you put your hand on the crystal ball that Giles took, Giles can be determined according to the brightness on the crystal ball, but if you don't have qualifications, don't say brightness, whether it can shine is still unknown.

The children in the village put their hands up one by one, the same expectation, the same disappointment, there were hundreds of children in the village, none of them caused a reaction from the magic ball, Giles's expression was very flat, obviously he had seen too many of this kind of scene.

"Go, son. Inava encouraged, patting Charles' trembling back.

Charles was very scared in his heart, now the whole village was looking at him, hundreds of pressures on Charles was a little overwhelmed, what if he couldn't light up, then he was still the object of their worship? Will they laugh at me, no! No, they won't, they will still look at me with adoring eyes.

Tremblingly, he put his hand down, and the silence and darkness of the moment ushered in the brightness, the brightness that shone on the space within a radius of three meters.

"Oh! Giles's eyes lit up, and he was quite kind to Charles, and this light was so similar to when he tested his qualifications.

Giles looked at the magic orb that lit up under his hand, and felt a chill for a while, until thunderous applause and shouts rang out behind him.

No loss of adoration, no loss・・・・・・ Charles thought excitedly.

"Excuse me, can I participate?"

It seems that the test has come to an end, and the villagers who were already going to congratulate them looked at the visitors with strange expressions, but they generally expressed one meaning - mockery.

"He's got a bad brain. ”

"Hahaha, he actually came to take the quiz. ”

“・・・・・・”

"Everyone is quiet, everyone in the village can participate, and of course Kirkel can do it!

The magician smiled and nodded.

"Yes, come, Kirkel, put your hand on the orb. Charles smiled, unconcerned.

Both knew in their hearts that Kirkel could not be a magician.

Kirkel rarely comes to crowded places, not to mention that this time it is not that there are many people, but everyone's attention is on him, and his heart is even more up and down, trembling and walking over, he raised his hand and was about to put it on, looked at his palm again, and quickly wiped it a few times in the cleanest place on his body, and finally put it on.

There was a moment of silence, and the laughter that was supposed to sound was all choked in my stomach, and it was really uncomfortable to choke in my throat. The light that shone through the hall was so dazzling that everyone closed their eyes. When I opened it again, I saw that Kirkel's eyes had changed drastically.

The magician stared at Kirkle and muttered, "Genius, this is genius!"
