The golden glow of the setting sun spread all over the land, and outside the south gate of the Western Capital Academy of Magic, the fallen leaves on both sides of the road floated with the wind, and after a few circles in the air, they lay lonely at the young man's feet.

"Big Brother Brady, are you really not coming to the academy?" Phil looked up at the tall Brady, his unadulterated eyes full of parting sorrow.

"Hmm. Looking at the deep longing and begging in Phil's eyes, Brady felt a little unbearable.

"Big Brother Brady, I'm ......" Phil said in a choked voice, the boy was not clumsy, but because of his innocence and kindness, he often behaved a little naïve.

"Hey, it's really hard to fool the bear children now. As soon as he saw Phil's speechless appearance, Brady knew that the boy had guessed that he had left the academy to keep him from being harmed, "It's the same for me wherever I study, it doesn't really matter if I'm in the academy or not." ”

"There is a diligent path in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea. Brother Brady, have you forgotten what you told me before?" As if feeling that a warning was not strong enough, Phil immediately added, "There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of those who have a heart." Brother Brady, that's what you taught me! And the stupid bird-......."

"Alright, alright. Brady had a black streak, "I'm not giving up on healing, ahh ”

"Hmm!" Phil nodded heavily, the sorrow in his eyes dissipating somewhat.

"Work hard, I'll come back to see you when I have time. After saying this, Brady hesitated slightly, then closed his eyes and suddenly pulled Phil into his arms, and gave the boy a hug, "Take care!"

"Big Brother Brady!" For some reason, an inexplicable sadness surged from the bottom of Phil's heart.

"Little Phil, Brother Brady will teach you another sentence today. The thick right palm ravaged the young man's soft hair, and Brady pressed his hands on Phil's somewhat delicate shoulders, "Remember, men don't flick when they have tears, no matter what happens in the future, you must face it bravely." ”

"Yes!" under Brady's serious gaze, Phil held back the tears that were about to fall.

"Alright, let's go back!" Brady smiled and patted Phil on the shoulder again, then turned and strode away without hesitation.

"Big Brother Brady, take care!" When the familiar back disappeared from sight, the muttering Phil couldn't help but shed tears, "Big Brother Brady, I promise, this is the last time I shed tears." ”

As the capital of the Khaltak king, Cologne has been far from the invasion of war for thousands of years, and because it is located on the western artery between the two empires of Taylor and Hangelan, trade is very prosperous. A stable living environment, abundant human resources, and strong material needs have created a prosperous economy.

To those outside the walls of Cologne, the former western capital of Taylor, known as the city that never sleeps, is a paradise. However, just as the brightest full moon has two different sides, light and dark, behind the glamour, there is also a group of poor people living within the walls of Cologne.

Five years ago, Phil, who was only 6 years old, was a little transparent in the slums that no one noticed, with a yellow face and thin muscles, skinny and bony, except for a pair of sincere and smart eyes, he could hardly feel the vitality of a living person in Phil.

According to the normal trajectory, the child, who was abandoned soon after birth, did not live to be ten years old, but on a stormy midsummer night, Brady, who happened to wander around the slums on a whim, happened to find a child hiding in the bridge to avoid the rain. Then, Phil's life changed completely.

Although he still lives a life that is not rich, he no longer has to worry about food all day long, and with Brady's help, Phil comes into contact with magic, which is a little extravagant for civilians. A year ago, thanks to Brady's money, Phil was given a chance to take the entrance exam to the Western Capital Academy of Magic. And it was because of this opportunity that Phil's life was turned upside down.

Magic refinement, spell casting speed doubled, mana consumption value doubled, mana recovery speed is three times that of ordinary people, and spell power is one and a half times the normal value.

In the entrance exam, Phil's magical talent was stunned by the examiners, and then, Marcas, who was the first to react in the examination room, impatiently announced that Phil was his official student.

Immediately afterwards, Marcus applied for the academy to seal Phil's examination file, and almost immediately, the dean responded and promoted it to an S-level file, which was not allowed to be consulted by anyone except King Karthak, who had the highest authority, and the dean of the Western Capital School of Magic. Later, with the attention of the head of the academy and the careful care of the magic master, Phil's life situation changed dramatically.

"Phil, with such a gift, please be kind to yourself, I hope we will meet later. Outside the academy, in a blind spot of Phil's vision, Brady silently watched the boy weep alone at the door, and it took a long time for him to let out a sigh with mixed feelings.

Magical research, purple-level talent, and also the most desired talent for mage professionals, there are only three mages in the long official records of the original Tairo Empire.

Among these three mages, two eventually became terrifying eighth-order professionals, while the other one died under the conspiracy of the jealous at the sixth-order because of his overly flamboyant personality.

Talent, in Brady's impression, is just something that cannot be seen, touched, or even felt, however, in Sennari's thousands of years of magical civilization, talent is like a human innate professional skill that can be determined by multiple tests to determine the type and effect.

Normally, the time of a person's talent awakening is about between the ages of twelve and fifteen, although there are no large number of examples to prove it, but most people think that the earlier the talent awakening, the better, if the talent awakening age is before the age of ten, then the person's talent is likely to be quite strong, and if the talent has not been awakened at the age of fifteen, it basically means that the person has no professional talent ability.

"Am I really innate with innate abilities?"

Back at the Viscount's Mansion in the East End, Brady went into the study after dinner, and then found the books that recorded hundreds of talents and flipped through them page by page. Ignoring the book's extensive descriptions of names and species, Brady looked it up directly in the feature description, but the results were still unsatisfactory after an hour.

"The records are all abilities that can bring a certain increase to spells or martial arts, why is there no information related to intelligence analysis, could it be that this is just a benefit brought by crossing, not the so-called talent in this life?"

At night, Brady, bathed in the faint light of the stars, fell into deep contemplation.
