Chapter Seventy-Four: The Story of Others 3
He's going to save the world.
Of course, this is not because he is a kind and good old man who does not care about previous suspicions, although ordinary people are happy to accept this explanation, but Hua Lin, who has personally experienced the Second Firmament World, when he sees this reason, feels that this kind of babbling is not even worth throwing in the trash can - it is worthy of a psychological comfort for those silly white sweets who have never seen a necromancer - if Edward Astartt is really that kind of person, let alone surviving the first night in the Necromantic Academy, it is a question whether he can survive for a month after his mother's death!
A good, silly good man (still a child!) should be counting on "Daddy loves me again" instead of fleeing overnight from his familiar ancestral mansion that seemed to have a ready-made dukedom by simply living a few more years, and disappearing into the darkness of the night where he must have never been alone.
The person who can make such a decision either has a deep hatred for his father and his father's stepwife, or has a very clear understanding of his situation. Because he managed to survive to the end, and there is no record that he and his biological father and family have any reunion drama that ordinary people who hug their heads and cry like to see, it is likely to be both. A ten-year-old child who was able to achieve the achievement of a formal elemental mage, and who was able to understand what happened to him in just half a day and plan his future actions and put them into practice, and then easily changed from the elemental system to the necromantic system like changing clothes, anyone who saw these materials would not suspect that he played a leading role in the survival of the First Firmament World, however, when Hua Lin was looking up the materials, based on his own origins, he keenly discovered some materials that the necromancers had inadvertently recorded, and deduced some more insider information that even the necromancers did not know。
Edward Astartt's biological father and stepwife, however hateful, were just puppets to be manipulated!
Although they were given the opportunity to manage a huge fortune including many magical treasures because of the death of the Duchess of Astarte, they didn't even know that their sons would not be eligible to inherit the Astarte territory after Edward's death, so they didn't even know that the difference between the noble inheritance law and the commoner inheritance law meant that their son would not be eligible to inherit the Astarte territory after Edward's death.
The necromancers would not have thought of this, because the combat power of the elemental mages was not worth mentioning in their eyes, and the killers who had to be dozens of them together to threaten the elemental mages were even more scum of the scum, and they would not have spent their time studying the ants and studying these mortal killers—otherwise, they would not have been hunted down so fiercely by their own creations—with their abilities, if they had studied more of the killer class, they would not have ......
And Hualin is different.
Before he became a wizard by chance, his intended career path was to be an assassin! he knew what kind of abilities, what kind of training he had to go through, and what kind of equipment he had to have to become an assassin who could get close to a wizard. These people are the big killers at the bottom of the box in every thief's guild, and they are not the big road goods that ordinary people can hire by throwing a few gold coins at the tavern! After all, even if ordinary people have money, it is difficult to even buy a real magic equipment! Not to mention that Edward Astadt is not an ordinary elemental mage, and he is still a few nobles after all! Hua Lin, who worked for the council, knew how much pressure the government would have if such a crime occurred, and that usually only lone wolves would take the job, and the thieves' union, who had a family and a job, would not participate.
And to be able to organize such a group of people, and to be able to obtain information in time that "Eduard Astarte is lurking in the capital", no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a mediocre couple who only have the territory of Astartat in their eyes can do!
If they could do it, there would be no elemental royal family in the First Firmament World for a long time, and it should be the world of the Thieves' Guild.
After all, the Duchess of Astarte treated her husband like a pug, and did not even think to teach him some basic knowledge, otherwise, he would not have thought that he could let his second son inherit the Astadt territory, in this case, he could not have hired people through her previous connections, and what is even more strange is that the disappearance of Edward Astadt was like a matter of his family from beginning to end, and the official correspondence of his domain did not look like the disappearance of a hereditary nobleman, but like an adult country knight who had lost his way.
What does this mean?
The Emperor of Morsfar, or the people who could manipulate the Emperor, were very much looking forward to the disappearance and even death of Eduard Astartat.
After making this not difficult conjecture, Warren sighed, he was born in a slum with no food, and the warmth of family was a scornful word for him, but, according to these accounts, Edward Astadt, the son of the mage and duchess who was born in the golden cradle with a staff in his mouth, was no better than him—at least he didn't have a father who could count on his death all the time, and an uncle who at least didn't stop it and was happy to see it.
The Emperor of Morsfar married Edward Astadt's fourth aunt, so they were related, which meant that in the event of Edward Astadt's death, the wealthy Astadt domain would most likely become his dear uncle's purse.
In fact, even if Edward is not dead, the situation is similar, his father and stepwife have to pay the killer and bribe the government because of the ghost relationship in their hearts, the amount is far greater than the tax that Astarte should pay, this account can be understood even by Hua Lin, and once Edward Astadt really dies, his dear emperor and uncle will come out in minutes to "administer justice" for those people who have been extorted for many years , and then the lords, who had been extorted for many years, would cheer for the emperor to carry out justice, and happily watch as the emperor's officials hung the duchess's husband's family on the gallows and confiscated all the remaining property, and then happily became the emperor's direct domain, losing many of the powers that the Astartat domain had since ancient times.
After Hua Lin sorted out this mess, which was not difficult, he deeply suspected that Edward Astadt had no good intentions when he entered the isolated Necromantic Academy, or later saved the world.
