Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 13 Sending away the only friend

Hill persuaded Alice: "Then go and persuade him. He lives too close to the human world. It will be a matter of time before he will be driven away. And Alice, if you have friends around here, persuade them to get close Time to move away."

"Does it have anything to do with your going out this time?"

"It's a bit related. There is an accident in the nearby human kingdom of Salar, and there may be a fight." Hill stood up and changed his robe, "A new god has appeared. There may be a war of gods. There will be more humans here. ."

Alice cursed a few times.

Hill looked at him, it turns out that the spirit of nature can also curse.Sure enough, humans and this creature rarely communicate.The innocence and naivety and cuteness in the legend are all imagined by human beings.

However, when the spirit of nature swears, it has to switch back to its own language, which makes Hill find it very interesting.

Alice scolded for a while, then turned to Hill and said, "Can I invite some friends to live in Hill's territory temporarily?"

"As long as it doesn't hurt people, you can. But you have to make a promise to nature: not to hurt people in my territory."

"Will Hill not invite humans to live in again?"

"I will build a small village in Taniguchi, and people will only be there to receive them. My only relatives are the Farlan Sorcerer and Adrian. As for the rest of the valley, except Bonn, no one has the ability to hurt Your friend."

"Okay. Bonn's fine too," Alice said simply. "I'll tell them. For a long living creature, God War is really disgusting."

She jumped to the window, turned to Hill and said, "I'll go talk to Merkel and he'll make a choice. If he doesn't sign the contract, then give up the mine. Can he move in too?" "

"Just swear."

"Hill is the best, meow~"

Hill shouted: "Go to Liszt to get some food and tell Merkel that the only good thing about human beings is that they eat a lot!"

Alice ran away with a meow.

When Hill walked to the small living room, Fran and Adrian were already sitting down and waiting for him to have breakfast together.

Bonn stood at the door waiting, looking ready to serve.

Hill glanced at Bonn and turned to ask Fran: "Where are the people around my grandfather? How long will it take to get there?"

Fran said slowly: "Most of them are scattered. Back then, I entered the capital by myself. The servants were all sent by the palace. Since I left, they went back to the palace by themselves. The tree fell and the people were scattered. A lot of people have also left, and when they reach the wilderness, there is no place for them to trade. There are still a dozen or so people, and I let them go slowly."

Hill could only bite the bullet and ask, "Where's the apprentice?"

Faran raised his eyelids: "What do you want to ask? Don't you know that my apprentices are all signed with the Magic Tower?"

"I'm a warlock." Hill said quietly, "Although Bonn has learned the basics from me well, I won't teach you how to enter the mage stage."

"Do you want him to come with me?"

Hill squinted and motioned for Bonn to shut up: "Grandfather, you need someone to follow and serve. Uncle Adrian is already an archmage. There are many things that are not suitable for him. And grandfather needs someone to serve. At least there are A cook?"

Adrian interjected, "Do you want them all to come with us?"

"I hope Aunt Lina can let go of their servant status, but they are still very cautious." Hill said, "But if you follow you as an apprentice family, they are ordinary civilians."

Hill regretted very much: "With you, living outside the tower, are free people. With me, I can't let them go out and live in poverty on their own farms, even if it's good for them, I can't do it. My grandfather is in The attendants of the palace did not follow, and no one would treat them as slaves anymore. I am actually reluctant, but I can’t teach Bonn, and Bonn’s younger siblings are also grown up, I don’t want them to live a life of inferiority like Bonn.”

"They don't have the qualifications of a wizard," Adrian said.

Hill turned his head and said, "The two of them have learned to read and write since they were young, and they all know a little bit about mages and knights. If they live with the people from my grandfather's chamber of commerce, they can at least become a businessman."

He finally said heavily: "I don't want Bonn to stay with me. He is obviously an apprentice, but he lives the life of a slave. His younger siblings should marry ordinary people and have children, instead of choosing people from slaves in the end."

He looked at Fran pleadingly: "Grandfather, please help me. And Bonn was trained as a housekeeper and can help you with many things. Lina and Locke can also help you train servants."

Fran squinted and thought for a while: "It's okay. I still need some apprentices to do things. You, Bonn, have been trained very well and have a solid foundation. But if you want to become an archmage, you have to look at opportunities, and you can manage apprentices."

Hill was very happy: "Thank you grandfather!"

Bonn couldn't control his emotions, turned around and went out the door, Hill quickly stood up.

Fran picked up the knife and fork and said, "It's half an hour for dinner, and we'll start right after it's over."

Hill picked up the sandwich on the plate, turned around and chased out the door.

Bonn was waiting outside the door.He asked Hill emotionally, why did he have to leave to go to Frank?
Hill took him back to his bedroom and closed the door tightly: "Although what I just said is not complete, the reason is the same. The most important thing is to be good for you, Dean and Shanny. Moreover, Lina and Locke are old It’s already big, and it really shouldn’t continue to work hard as a slave!”

Bonn asked: "What other reasons are there? It doesn't matter! And Mom and Dad don't find it hard."

Hill said: "Yes, and the most important reason, I can't ruin your future. There are many things I didn't expect before. There are many things that are too different to be a warlock. Everything I had planned, It's all based on a mage's position. You don't feel it now, because the elements of the civil engineering and water system are very good for ordinary people, at least they can ensure good health.

But these are a hindrance to your mage path.I can't use fire spells at all, and the elemental spirits of civil engineering and water will not stop growing and summoning.But these will exclude the fire element from the territory.

But your family is all fire-type qualified people.If you say that you can become an archmage in Frank, but with me, you can't even become a mage.

And for Dean and Shanny, they don't have the qualifications of mages, and the awakening of knights can only rely on their own physical fitness.Where there is no fire element, there is no possibility of awakening. "

Bonn murmured, "But I'm your housekeeper! Let them go, and Mom and Dad with them! I'll stay."

Hill said simply: "Who do you think my grandfather is? A philanthropist? If it wasn't for your usefulness, he wouldn't be able to take in Dean and the others. And Bonn, you should know that I will only give priority to you."

He ate the sandwich in a few bites and continued: "Grandfather and Adrian found out early in the morning that my territory was not suitable for a mage, so they were so anxious to build a mage tower. I also thought about it for a long time last night before I understood.

If you don't shove you in now and wait until Adrian gets everything straightened out, you're useless.Alchemy masters like my grandfather used alchemy puppets every day.It's not that you haven't seen that Liszt basically only needs maids who do laundry and cook.Grandfather's Tarling will only get stronger.

Bonn, I hope you have a bright future, if you are my servant for the rest of your life, why do I teach you so much? "

He stopped Bonn, who was trying to refute: "I will never allow you to ruin your future. What I imagined for you at the beginning is the position that your grandfather gave you now. But it is impossible for me to take an apprentice. Stay with me, you There's no way out. Bonn, you're 20 years old, think about yourself more!"

Bonn bowed his head and refused to speak.

Hill looked at him sadly: Bonn had followed him since childhood, and Hill was his belief.But he couldn't stay any longer.

Hill knew that sending the Bonn family away would only leave him alone.Although it is very close, Faran's magic tower will not be as easy as he is here, and Bonn will not have a leisurely day.

Hill can't always look at him, under the eyes of Fran, the more insipid the better.And he didn't want to go too much to affect Adrian.

The reason he gave to Farran was very common, but he could pass the level, but it could never be said that his status as a warlock would hinder Bonn.Because their nanny family is conscientious and useless when they become adults, then soft-hearted people will set them free and find a better way out for them, which is normal among noble children.But if serving him would hinder the servant's future and let the person go, the servant who affects the master will definitely not end well.

Both Frank and Adrian are noblemen of this tradition.Hill noticed that Adrian had been scrutinizing Lina, and finally decided that Hill was just soft-hearted and ignored it.But his feelings for Lina are not that deep. Lina loves Melanie the most, and the love she gives is to Melanie's child. If Hill is just an ordinary child, he might feel that kind of complicated feelings. It's a pity that Hill was in his 40s in his previous life. He felt the most sincere parental affection, and he could tell the difference.

Only Bonn was determined to follow Hill since he was a child, thinking of Hill every moment.Even hide his parents for Hill.He was Hill's most important childhood playmate, and what Bonn gave was the only wholehearted affection Hill had received in this world for more than a decade.

Adrian always thought he taught Bonn magic for Lina's sake.But Hill, as a person who grew up in a modern society, has distinct likes and dislikes, and has long been accustomed to giving as much in return.If it was just the Lina family, he would definitely arrange it for them in Salar, instead of taking them with them.
