Naka Estate. (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)

A fast horse slammed open the gate of the manor, waking up the servants in the manor.

"Huh, isn't that the big butler?"

"He looks like he's hurt......" [Search for the latest updates.]

The servant quickly opened the door and helped the almost dying butler inside.

"Where is the master, I want to see the master......" The chief butler's appearance was quite miserable, and there was a large blood stain on the shoulder blade behind his left side, and the blood couldn't stop flowing down, and he didn't seem to have much body left.

Needless to say, the movement of the manor had already alarmed Geralt, and he immediately got up.

In the antechamber of Naka Manor, Geralt was taken aback when he saw the butler of the Withered Ton, and asked, "What's wrong with you? You're the only one?"

In Gerat's opinion, sending three people to assassinate a child should have been a sure thing, so he didn't worry too much, and fell asleep directly after an explanation.

"Dead, they're all dead...... the big butler hung his head in pain, the other two were his sworn brothers, the man in black was the eldest, the brown-haired man was the third, he was the second, but in the end he was the only one who survived.

"How so?" said Geralt, shocked, and asked in a deep voice, "Who did that? Did you get into trouble on the way?"

In his opinion, Ron's factor is directly ruled out, and the murderer must have someone else.

"It's that child......" The big butler blushed, he was embarrassed to mention it by a child who had been put in such a miserable situation, but it was not okay not to mention it, and most importantly, it was a fact.

"No way. Gerat's first reaction was disbelief.

"It's true, he's learned necromancy ......," argued the butler.

"Necromancy?" Geralt didn't react for a moment, and after a long while, he said, "Is that the legendary necromancy?"

The butler nodded.

"You mean, that kid learned necromancy and hurt you?" asked Geralt again.

The butler nodded again.

"Are you sure you're not dazzled?" Geralt laughed and cried, "Necromancy can hurt people?"

"Haha......"

At this time, many servants had already come out of the antechamber of the Naka Manor, and many of them covered their mouths and laughed after listening to the words of the chief butler.

The big butler didn't smile, his expression was stern and serious, "It's true, sir......"

Geralt thought about it, but decided to warn the servant with a bad brain.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but what you said is too unbelievable, the existence of necromancy has been proven to be an outright lie, and some people once desperately preached that necromancy was once the oldest and most powerful magic in the world, and its power was on a par with magic, but now it is lost, but later, it was confirmed that he was just trying to cheat research funds. ”

Geralt paused, "The latest popular theory is that the necromancy did exist in ancient times, that is, the Lost Continent in that era, and it has been passed down to the present, it should be said that it is a part of it lost, but I believe that it is definitely not as powerful as the legend......"

Geralt glanced at the butler, "You understand that......

The chief butler was in a hurry, he couldn't imagine that no one believed his words, "But ...... But ......"

"Uncle Gerat...... What are you doing here?"

The butler's speech was interrupted by a voice, and Geralt saw that it was his nephew Jordyn, and he immediately put on a smile, and there was even a flattering hint in the smile.

"Jordyn, are you here?"

There was a lot of movement at Naka Manor, and Jordin had already been awakened, and McKinsh was no exception.

"What the hell is going on?" asked Jordin, who, though he was only sixteen years old, had been cultivated by aristocratic temperament and etiquette since childhood, and seemed quite mature.

Geralt didn't dare to hide it, and told Jordin and the others everything about it.

McKinsh laughed after hearing this, "Uncle Geratt, you are too careful, I don't care about this little thing, who wants you to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, it's just redundant, our dignified Higgin family is actually afraid of a child's revenge? Don't laugh off other people's big teeth when you spread it." ”

"That's ......," Jordin also glared, echoing, "doesn't this show that we are obviously afraid of him, and it is a shame for our family......"

Geralt didn't dare to argue, and laughed a few times, "I'm not trying to be foolproof......"

He paused and said, "But this kid seems to have learned necromancy, although I don't know how he learned it, and he hurt my people......"

In front of outsiders, Geralt still chooses to believe the words of his own person, the big butler.

"No way. After hearing this, Jordin shook his head without a night, he stretched out a finger and said proudly, "I don't think there can be three reasons, first, in the territory of the Holy Roman Empire, it is strictly forbidden for necromantic practitioners to enter, once discovered, they will be executed on the spot, and they must learn necromantic magic, unless in the Roland Empire, where it is not forbidden to practice any magic, how can he learn necromantic magic within the territory of the empire?"

"Second, even if he learns necromancy, how can he hurt the great butler, necromancy has long been proven to be useless. ”

Jordin held out three fingers, "Third, if he really learned necromancy and had considerable strength, then he should have used it when we were arguing, but unfortunately he didn't ......"

One, two, three, Jordyn's analysis was straightforward, even Geralt nodded secretly, sure enough, he was a child from a big family, and Kitley couldn't compare with him at all.

Jordyn smiled, "In the end, my conclusion is that when the big butler went to hunt down that kid, he was targeted by someone and injured him, well, I guess he will be a thief, only thieves have the ability to hide." ”

Jordyn turned to McKinsh after speaking, "Am I right?"

McKinsh nodded, held out a thumbs up to him, and he smiled grimly and said, "Although I don't know what the reason for the injury of the big butler, this kid is indeed unforgivable." ”

"That's right, you really have to teach him a lesson, otherwise this kid will be too arrogant......" Jordin agrees.

McKinsh smiled and turned to Geratt, "Uncle Geratt, do you want to make a little money?"

Geralt's heart moved, and he smiled, "What good ideas does Master McKinsh have?"

A hint of sinister flashed in McKinsh's eyes, "Uncle Geratt, in fact, if you want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, you don't necessarily need to do it yourself......"

"In the Holy Roman Empire, it is not allowed to practice necromancy, and even necromancer practitioners are not allowed to enter, once discovered, the Holy See has the right to execute on the spot, and those who provide information about the necromancer will be rewarded with 500 gold coins, if that kid really cultivates necromancy, haha, Uncle Gerat, this is not a small fortune?"

For the Higgin family, five hundred gold coins are not in the eyes at all, but in the eyes of Geralt of Naka Manor, it is different.

His eyes lit up, "Is Master McKinsh serious?"

"Of course. McKinsh smiled and said, "There is a holy church in the town of Shining Gold not far from Naka Manor, you can take the big butler to where tomorrow morning, and the Holy See will take care of the future affairs......"

"Thank you, Master McKinsh......" Geralt thanked with joy.

The Holy See is the largest church in the human alliance, it has established a number of united principalities with the Holy Roman Empire as the main body, and within the Holy Roman Empire and its sphere of influence, it prohibits the appearance of evil magic practitioners and evil creatures, otherwise it will be executed in the name of heresy, and necromancer is one of the professions that are forbidden to enter the Holy Roman Empire.

At that moment, a figure appeared at the top of the stairs, yawned, and looked at everyone with sleepy eyes, it was Kitley.

"What are you all doing?"

“......”

The crowd was speechless.

......

"Grandpa Homerin, should we start learning necromancy now?"

In an abandoned mine, Ron sat cross-legged on the ground, quietly looking at Homelin, his eyes shining with anticipation.

"We have to do a talent test first to see if you have the talent to practice necromancy......," Huo Meilin said with a smile.

"Huh, if you don't have talent, you can't be a necromancer?" Ron was a little worried.

"Not necessarily, talent and achievement are not necessarily related. Huo Meilin shook his head and said, "Those with high talent are not necessarily high in achievement, and those with low talent cannot be judged to have low achievements." Talent just makes it easier for you to walk on this path. ”

Seeing that Ron still didn't understand, Huo Meilin said patiently.

"For example, there are two kinds of power popular among human beings, one is magic, and the other is fighting qi, those who cultivate magic need extremely high spiritual talents, while those who cultivate fighting qi need extremely strong physical talents, or to be more detailed, some people are water magic talents, and some are fire attribute fighting qi talents, these talents are innate. ”

"But talent and achievement are not necessarily related, a person with magical talent can also exercise his physique to meet the requirements of a Dou Qi cultivator, and some people with Dou Qi talent can also cultivate spiritual power and become a magician, these two are not contradictory......

"A person with a talent for Dou Qi cultivates Dou Qi, it will be relatively smooth, if you change to practicing magic, it will require great perseverance, and there is also a great risk of achieving nothing, which is why the talent is tested, its purpose is to make your cultivation path smoother. ”

"Grandpa Homelin, I kind of get it...... Ron thought for a moment, "This talent is like a hobby, for example, my hobby is fishing, if someone reads and teaches me, my fishing skills can improve quickly, isn't it?"

"Yes, but if your hobby is different, such as cooking, then if you learn to fish, then studying will definitely be half the effort...... "Of course, if you really make up your mind to learn, you may not fail to learn, that's what it means......

"Although this talent is innate, it can actually be changed, but the timing of change is very important, generally speaking, 8-14 years old is the best time to change the talent, if you miss it all the time, it will be difficult to change, think about it, a Dou Qi cultivator will not start learning magic until he is forty years old, may he achieve anything?"

Huo Meilin's persuasion and persuasion opened Ron's eyes, as if he had entered a new world.
