Naka Manor.
A fast horse smashed open the gate of the manor and awakened the servants in the manor.
"Huh? Isn't that the housekeeper?"
"He seems to be injured..."
The servant quickly opened the door and helped the dying butler into the door.
"Where is the lord? I want to see the lord..." The butler looked rather miserable. There was a large patch of blood on his left and back shoulder blade, and the blood couldn't stop flowing down, and he didn't seem to have much physical strength. Up.
Needless to say, the movement of the manor had already alarmed Geralt, and he immediately got up.
In the front hall of Naka Manor, Geralt saw the wilting butler, and was taken aback, and asked, "What's wrong with you? You were injured like this? Only you? Are there others? "
In Geralt’s view, sending three people to assassinate a child should have been a sure thing, so he didn’t worry too much, and went to sleep as soon as he confessed. Who knew that the mission failed, he I feel very incredible.
"Dead, they are all dead..." The butler lowered his head in pain. The other two were his brothers. The man in black was the eldest, the brown-haired man was the third, and he was the second. In the end only he survived.
"Why?" Geralt was shocked, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who did it? Did you get into trouble on the road?"
In his opinion, Ron’s factor has been eliminated directly, and there must be someone else who killed.
"It's the kid..." The housekeeper blushed and was put into such a miserable situation by a child. He was too embarrassed to mention it, but it wouldn't work if he didn't mention it. Most importantly, it was a fact.
"Impossible." Geralt's first reaction was not to believe it.
"It's true, he learned undead magic..." the butler argued strongly.
"Undead magic?" Geralt didn't react at once, and after a while, he said, "Is that the legendary undead magic?"
The housekeeper nodded.
"You mean, that kid learned undead magic and then hurt you?" Geralt asked again.
The butler nodded again.
"Are you sure you have no dazzling?" Geralt was dumbfounded, "Undead magic can actually hurt people?"
"Haha..."
At this time, many servants had already appeared in the front hall of Naka Manor. After hearing the words of the butler, many people hid their mouths and laughed.
The butler did not smile, his expression was serious and serious, "It is true, sir..."
Geralt thought for a while, but decided to remind the servant who had a bad head.
"Master, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but what you said is really incredible. The existence of undead magic has been proved to be a complete lie. Some people once desperately preached that undead magic once It is the oldest and most powerful magic in the world. Its power and magic go hand in hand, but it is now lost, but later-it was confirmed that he was just for research funding."
Geralt paused, "The latest popular saying is that undead magic existed in the ancient times, that is, the lost continent did exist in that era. It should be said that it is part of the lost, but I believe It's definitely not as powerful as the legend..."
Geralt glanced at the butler, "So you can understand..."
The butler is in a hurry. He didn't think that nobody believed him, "But...but..."
"Uncle Geralt...what are you doing here?"
The housekeeper's speech was interrupted by a voice. When Geralt looked at it, it was his nephew Jordin. He immediately put a smile on his face, which even seemed to be flattering.
"Jordin, are you here?"
Naka Manor is very dynamic, Jordin has already been awakened, and McKinsh is no exception.
"What the **** is going on?" Jordin asked. Although he was only sixteen years old, he was cultivated by aristocratic temperament and etiquette since he was a child, and he looks quite mature.
Geralt didn't dare to conceal it, and told Jordin and others about the matter.
McKinsh laughed after hearing this. "Uncle Geralt, you are too careful. I don’t care about this little thing. Who wants you to cut the weeds and roots? It’s super unnecessary. Afraid of a kid’s revenge? Don’t laugh away other people’s teeth when it spreads out."
"It's..." Jordin also stared, and said in agreement, "Doesn't this show that we are obviously afraid of him? It simply loses the face of our family..."
Geralt didn't dare to argue, chuckled a few times, "I'm not trying to be foolproof..."
He paused, "But this kid seems to have learned undead magic, although I don't know how he learned it, and he hurt my people..."
In front of outsiders, Geralt still chooses to believe what he is the housekeeper.
"Impossible." After hearing this, Jordin shook his head again and again. He stretched out a finger and said triumphantly, "I don't think there can be three reasons. First, in the Holy Roman Empire, undead is strictly prohibited. When a magician enters, once discovered, he will be executed on the spot. He must learn undead magic, except in the Roland Empire, where it is not forbidden to practice any magic. How can he learn undead magic in the empire?"
"Secondly, even if he learns undead magic, how can he hurt the butler? Undead magic has long been proved to be useless."
Jordin stretched out three fingers, "Third, if he really learns undead magic and has considerable strength, then he should use it when we are arguing, but unfortunately he doesn't..." /
At one, two or three o'clock, Jordin's analysis was very good, even Geralt nodded secretly, he was indeed a son of a big family, and Kitley was incomparable to him.
Jordin smiled, "Finally, my conclusion is that in the process of chasing down the kid, the butler was spotted by someone and injured him. Well, I guess he will be a thief, only thief has it. Hidden skills."
Jordin turned to McKinsh, "Am I right?"
McKinsh nodded and held out a thumb to him. He smiled sullenly and said, "Although I don't know why the housekeeper was injured, this kid is indeed unforgivable."
"That's right, I really need to teach him a lesson, otherwise this kid would be too arrogant..." Jordin agreed with this too.
Mackinsh smiled and turned to Geralt, "Uncle Geralt, do you want to make a fortune?"
Geralt moved in his heart and smiled, "Master McKinsh has any good ideas?"
A sinister flash flashed in McKinsh’s eyes, "Uncle Geralt, you don’t necessarily need to do it yourself if you want to cut the roots..."
"In the Holy Roman Empire, it is not allowed to practice undead magic, or even those who are not allowed to enter. Once discovered, the Holy See has the right to execute it on the spot. Those who provide information about the necromancer will be rewarded with 500 gold coins. If you’re practicing undead magic, haha, Uncle Geralt, isn’t this a small fortune?"
For the Hijin family, who has a big business, five hundred gold coins are not in the eyes, but it is different in the eyes of Geralt of Naka Manor.
His eyes lit up, "Master McKinsh is serious?"
"Of course." McKinsh smiled and said, "There is a holy church in Shinjin Town not far from Nagar Manor. You can go wherever you go with the butler early in the morning. The Holy See will deal with it..."
"Thank you, Master McKinsh..." Gerrard thanked him with joy.
The Holy See is the largest church in the Alliance of Humanity. It has established a unity of state and church in the Holy Roman Empire. Within the scope of the Holy Roman Empire and its influence, all evil magic practices are prohibited. Or evil creatures appear, otherwise they will be executed in the name of heresy, and Necromancer is one of the professions prohibited from entering the Holy Roman Empire.
At this moment, a figure appeared at the top of the stairs, yawning, and looking at everyone with sleepy eyes, it was Kitley.
"What are you doing?"
"..."
Everyone was speechless.
……
"Grandpa Huo Meilin, shall we start learning undead magic now?"
In an abandoned mine, Ron sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at Khomelin quietly, his eyes gleaming with expectation.
"We must first do a talent test to see if you have the talent to practice undead magic..." Huo Meilin said with a smile.
"Huh? If you don't have the talent, you can't become a necromancer?" Ron became a little worried.
"Not necessarily, talent is not necessarily related to achievement." Huo Meilin shook his head, "If the talent is high, the achievement is not necessarily high, and the low talent is not necessarily low. The talent is just for you. It’s just easier to walk on this road."
Seeing that Ron still didn't understand, Hummerin said patiently.
"For example, two powers are popular among human beings, one is magic and the other is fighting spirit. Those who practice magic require extremely high mental talents, while those who practice fighting Qi need extremely strong physical talents, or In more detail, some people are talented in water magic, and some are talents in fire attribute. These talents are all born."
"But talent is not necessarily related to achievement. A person with magic talent can also exercise his physique to meet the requirements of a fighting spirit practitioner, and some people with fighting spirit talent can also practice spiritual power and become a magician. , The two are not contradictory..."
"A person with a talent for fighting qi will be relatively smoother. If you change to practice magic, you will need a lot of perseverance, and the risk of doing nothing is very high. This is why you want to test your talent. The purpose of is to make you walk more smoothly on the road of cultivation."
"Grandpa Huomerin, I understand a little bit..." Ron thought for a while. "This talent is like interest. For example, my hobby is fishing. If someone is willing to teach me, my fishing Technology can be improved quickly, isn't it?"
"Yes, but if your interest is another kind, such as cooking, then let you learn to fish, then it will definitely get twice the result..." Huo Meilin explained with a smile, "Of course, if you really make up your mind to go It may not be bad to learn, that's what it means..."
"Although this talent is born, 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 talent. If you miss it all the time, it is difficult to change. Now, think about it, a grudge cultivator has only started to learn magic when he is forty years old. Could he possibly achieve anything?"
Huo Meilin's arrogance and eloquence made Ron's eyes wide open, as if he had entered a new world.
