After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

"what?"

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Arthur put down his cutlery briefly, picked up the coconut milk and took a sip.

Sheen answered truthfully:

"I'm fine, I just don't understand what you said before dinner."

"A discussion of light and darkness?"

Arthur gently put the cup down and tilted his head in front of Sheen.

Sheen wondered why Arthur was giving him that "look at me like a fool" expression.

Arthur answered truthfully:

"I'm telling the truth."

"Everyone has a sunny side, and naturally a dark side. Isn't it true that the advantages are especially valuable when they are set off by the disadvantages?"

Seeing that Sheen was still not paying attention to what he said, Arthur paused and asked in a low voice:

"Are you worried about your magic?"

Sheen shuddered slightly when he heard this.

Arthur knew he had guessed correctly, so he told the people around him:

"The magic power of a magic apprentice is a private matter. But as Sheen's guardian, I currently have the right to know.

"You guys go out first, let me talk to my nephew alone."

"Yes, Lord Count."

The servant who served them their meal left briefly.

As the last person to leave carefully closed the door, the uncle and nephew were the only ones left in the restaurant.

"Yes, uncle,"

Sheen placed his hands on the table and nodded slightly.

"It's not that I don't have additional attributes. My attribute is the dark side of the light attribute."

That is the dark attribute.

Sheen continued to talk about his anxiety -

To be honest, he was still afraid that he would follow in the footsteps of Yuan Xien:

He was taken advantage of and later lost the ability to distinguish between good and evil.

He uttered a feeble complaint:

"Why am I a dark attribute? As a legitimate bloodline, shouldn't I be a light attribute?"

Arthur looked at the anxious Sheen and snorted.

"It seems futile to tell you not to be afraid. Listen, Sheen, I also understand that this physique is a very troublesome thing."

Arthur was not surprised after hearing Sheen's appeal, but sneered.

“Because I’ve been there.”

Arthur found it funny to see Sean shivering.

Of course, as someone who has been through this, he knows that if he encountered such a thing at his age, he would probably be trembling with fear.

Is Arthur an experienced person?

When Sheen heard Arthur's last words, his head snapped up.

Everyone stared at Arthur with wide eyes:

"Uncle's additional attribute is also dark attribute?"

and many more!

Could it be that the empathy magic from yesterday was——

"Yes, but I have completely mastered the knack of controlling it. After all, I have experienced a lot, and my mood changes are not obvious."

Arthur interlaced his fingers and placed them on the back of his head, looking contented.

"You cried yesterday, largely because of my mental magic."

I almost forgot, mental magic is one of the branches of black magic, and empathy magic is a category of mental magic.

"Ah, how could I..."

At this time, Xien could only choose to play dumb.

"Xien, this kind of black magic is not obvious, of course you have to study it too much,"

Arthur let go of his hands and smiled secretly.

"But you just need to know that you are not the only one with the dark attribute in the orthodox bloodline. Your uncle has it too."

Arthur put his hands on the table and explained to Sheen easily:

“In fact, most of the orthodox bloodline additional attributes are dark attributes.

Because the gods have given them too many magical talents, they must be given more tests."

“Only the orthodox bloodline that has undergone the test of black magic can transform into an excellent heir and obtain the ruling position of the Haines family.”

It turns out there is such a "factory setting".

Sheen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

He thought of the "round characters" in literary works - the characters' personalities are complex and multifaceted, enriching the cover, which is a common character setting in art films.

Compared with flat characters, such characters appear to have more depth and are more in line with the real situations in real life.

"Sheen in The Game of Mediation and Sheen now are both round characters: they appear with a halo of decency, but later choose some extreme ways to protect themselves."

As the protagonist of the novel (and the protagonist of this life), Sheen inevitably encounters difficulties in these stories, which can lead to sublimation.

Of course, Sheen still felt that such troubles should be avoided if possible.

No matter how you say that the black magic in the novel is "a terrifying force achieved through hatred and contract" -

Before knowing how Yuan Xien became a "successful" experimental subject, we should still be wary of this power.

......

Today's time passed very peacefully, so peacefully that it was surprising.

The light in Sheen's room was still on, and the person inside was sitting at the desk, writing homework and the magic spells to be learned tomorrow on brown paper with a pen made of dried lilies.

swish swish...

This is the sound of the pen tip writing on paper, and it seems to never stop.

Ten p.m.

"what..."

After finally finishing the last lesson, Sean shook his sore hands helplessly and yawned.

"(Talking to myself) My soul is an adult but I still have to do the things I did when I was a student. I finally finished today's homework..."

After saying this, he closed the magic book.

Then I leaned back on the soft cushion with my head tilted back. I had intended to take a break before washing up, but I unexpectedly fell asleep.

But for some reason, Xien had a strange dream when he was sleeping:

"Well..."

In the dream, he seemed to be aching all over and everything around him was pitch black.

He tried to push his body upwards, and finally broke out of something hard like a chick breaking out of its shell.

"Huh, it's night time..."

A cool breeze blew, and he could vaguely see his long straight silver hair fluttering in the wind...

"Well, why am I outside?"

Is it a dream?

And because it was a dream, it seemed...

He tried to raise his hand and saw an adult male's hand.

“I feel like I’ve grown bigger…”

He covered his forehead with his hands, squinted his eyes slightly and looked up at the sky, only to see the blood-red moon.

Wait, a red moon?!

The red moon is a symbol of demon invasion. When you see such a moon, disaster for the empire is not far away.

"Is this the end of the original story?!"

As he thought about it, he looked down again and again, and saw a different scenery - there were no weeds on the marble steps, and flowers were blooming all around.

The most special thing is that the plant next to it is the flourishing Lycoris radiata...

Red spider lily? ?

In reality, Sheen lost his balance and woke up with a start before his head fell off the cushion.

"Ok!"

“Huff, huff…”

Xien straightened up while panting:

"What was that dream just now about?"

Sheen fell asleep in Arthur's residence, while on the other side.

The "horseless carriage" slowly drove into the building compound where Sheen was at the time.

The person who got off the car was a man wearing a wizard's robe, and his extraordinary bearing could be seen even through the cloak.

Romos Jones, the owner of this land.
