The idiot young master of the Luo Lin family made the learned teacher angry and ran away. This has almost become the most famous joke in the imperial capital in recent days.
Many boring people are talking about this matter with a sense of gloating. Who is Count Raymond of the Rollin family who is now so famous? Seeing such a big man unlucky is in line with the dark psychology of some boring people.
Moreover, Count Raymond also made a mistake. The huge reward he originally offered to find someone to make his child speak has become a new thing, a not-so-big news. And because of that incident,
The idiot young master of the Luo Lin family suddenly became famous! He became the focus of discussion among people.
Even in the past two years in the imperial capital, when many families gave birth to children, they would habitually say: "Oh, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as they are healthy... don't be like the unlucky Luo Lin family."
That gave birth to a little idiot."
On this day, Master Du Wei once again welcomed his father. This time the man who came with the count made Du Wei dislike him very much. Because this man was wearing a gray robe, a gray pointed hat, and he had a skinny face.
Fingers, and cloudy eyes.
This guy's whole body exuded an unpleasant smell of decay and staleness. Moreover, the sinister aura on his body made Du Wei sneeze hard.
"Master Clark, this is my son." The Earl, the Vice President of the Imperial High Command and the second-ranking figure in the Imperial Military, spoke very politely to the guy next to him: "Please see if he is on the path of sacred magic.
Is there even a little bit of a future?"
It seemed that the Earl had no choice but to hire the famous Master Clark from the imperial capital to teach his son this time.
If "magician" can be regarded as a profession, then this profession is undoubtedly one of the most respected professions. Although, this so-called "respect" is more tinged with fear.
Everywhere, magicians are a symbol of noble status. They can be equal to any noble and receive the most favorable treatment. A powerful magician can be as effective in war as a small army! And all magicians are
They are the targets of any country's leaders' efforts to recruit! Not only because magicians have superhuman abilities, but also because these people will not pose a threat to the leader's power!
A magician spends most of his life studying magic or meditating to accumulate magic power. Almost all magicians have no worldly desires, and they are not greedy for money... because a qualified alchemy wizard can use magic.
Turn stubborn stones into gems or gold! In their eyes, precious gems are just some magical auxiliary props.
Magicians have no desire for power. Their biggest goal in life is to pursue the mystery of magic. The secular desire for power is not looked down upon by them. This is even more pleasing to the powerful!
It can be said that in the entire Roland world, magicians are the most noble profession. They are recruited by all powerful people and can enjoy the best treatment!
But...the Earl does not want his son to become a magician! Even if there is any other choice!
Because almost all magicians are feared...monsters! They are unkind, withdrawn, and eccentric by nature, and they don't like to deal with people. They like to close themselves off and indulge in magic research. No noble girl would like to interact with them.
A monster who hides in a research room all day long talks about love. No nobleman would invite a cold magician to a banquet to ruin the atmosphere. No emperor would grant a magician a title or make a magician serve as an important minister of the empire!
And Du Wei, after all, is his son! He is the heir to the Luo Lin family! He needs to fall in love in the future, get married and have children, continue the family, and participate in various social occasions in aristocratic circles...
However, who calls his son an "idiot" who can't learn martial arts or literature? It seems that if he wants to achieve something, magician is his last choice!
If the great Luo Lin family can produce a superb magician in the history... Although it is a bit nondescript, it is still passable!
With hopeful eyes, the Earl watched Master Clark lead his son into a prepared closed room.
"Okay, boy." After entering the room, Master Clark immediately took out a small bottle, poured a little golden powder on his fingertips, quickly drew a large circle in the room, and then turned around
She looked at Du Wei: "I have cast a silencing spell. Now, no one outside can hear our conversation here."
Then, the magician with a cold expression walked up to Du Wei and looked at the little guy in front of him: "Now, tell me, kid, what is magic in your mind?"
What is magic?
This question made Du Wei hesitate for a moment. From his true thoughts, he was very interested in the "magic" of this world. After all, he also knew many magnificent legends about magic. But what exactly is magic... In Du Wei
In Wei's impression, when so-called magicians use magic, they usually sing loudly something like "God of Wind, please obey my call...".
Then, there are things like flying sand and rocks, crying ghosts and howling.
Looking at the child in front of him who didn't speak, he thought that this question was too profound for this young child. Clark smiled, and then said in a low and slow voice: "Magic is the solution given to humans by the omnipotent gods.
Uncovering the mysteries revealed by the gods! It is the way for human beings to pursue the ultimate power in this world! It is the source of understanding oneself, understanding the world, and unlocking the greatest gift given to humans by the gods!"
Clark, who was wearing a gray robe, had a sacred voice in his voice. Unfortunately, these words did not appeal to Du Wei. Because these seemingly noble words sounded a bit pretentious to Du Wei.
.
Young Du Wei didn't show anything on his face, and the child's silence made the arrogant magician mistake it for fear of him. He was very satisfied with the reaction of the earl's heir. Then, the magician stepped out of his large gray robe.
He took out a crystal ball as big as a fist.
"Mental strength is one of the criteria for measuring whether a person has magical talent...Although it is not the only criterion, it is the most important link. Now, let me test your magical talent..."
Du Wei finally spoke, and he asked the question in his heart: "Spiritual power? Magic power? But isn't it true that only magicians have magic power?"
Clark's eyes widened: "Who told you such a wrong and outrageous statement? Damn it, are there people in Earl Rollin's house who don't even have this kind of common sense?"
The magician was angered by this common sense mistake: "Spiritual power is what ordinary people call it. For magicians, mental power is magic! Magicians can use the method of meditation to continuously strengthen and increase their mental power.
, and then use mental power beyond ordinary people to sense the world, sense the mysteries of nature, and sense the various forces in the natural world. Only people with strong mental strength can do this! Continuously increasing the accumulated mental strength can
It allows the magician to more clearly sense various magical elements in the world... And the so-called magic is to use some tricks to allow the magician to rely on his own spiritual power to command, or to borrow some power from the natural world for the magician to use - this
It’s magic.”
Du Wei sighed: "I understand... mental power is magic power. And the so-called magic power is actually a kind of lever. Magicians use this lever to borrow the power of nature."
There was a trace of surprise in Clark's cloudy eyes: "It's hard to believe, oh, a child over five years old... oh, you are very smart, but why do others call you an idiot?"
Regarding this question, Du Wei said nothing and just looked at the magician silently. The arrogant magician Clark would not waste time on such a small issue, so he was slightly surprised and ignored the problem.
"This world, this natural world contains too many magical elements. Every bit and every drop of them is a source of power. Rain, thunder and lightning, blizzards and winds, even the replacement of the sun, moon and stars, the blooming and withering of flowers and plants...
...All of these are sources of power in nature. And an excellent magician can fully sense all kinds of subtle and clear changes in the world. The 'lever' you just mentioned is a very interesting metaphor.
Simply put, when the lever you have is stronger, you can mobilize more powerful natural forces. But if the lever is too weak, the natural forces that can be mobilized are very limited."
Du Wei sighed: "So that's it. I thought a magician's power came from his own 'magic'."
Clark frowned again: "I have to wonder, who has said such unsense words to you? What I just said is common sense that even the most junior magic apprentice knows! 'Strength comes from one's own magic power'
?Oh my god...I have to correct you. You must remember firmly: human power is limited, even the strongest people are limited! Magicians can do things that ordinary people can't do, such as
A powerful magician can level a hill with his wave of his hand, or summon a storm...but that is by no means the power of the magician himself. Rather, it is through magic, with the help of the natural power of the world! And this world was created by God.
Ours, so fundamentally speaking, when magicians use magic, they use the power of gods! Remember, humans were created by gods, and humans can never have the power of gods! That is a taboo! Magicians
The power comes from nature, from the gods who created this 'nature'!"
He lowered his voice and frowned: "I wonder how the Luo Lin family could have a child who is so wrong about common sense like you. If when you become an adult, you still say that the power similar to that of a magician comes from
If you do this... I can't guarantee that you won't be burned at the stake in front of the temple! Because your words are fundamentally doubting the gods!"
Du Wei closed his mouth, his eyes returned to dullness, and then lowered his little head, hiding his expression appropriately.
