Longevity Story

"How? Surprised, right? The Ministry of Magic has covered up the existence of this piece of history, which is not visible in the existing books. What I know was passed down to me orally by your grandfather, and the average young family doesn't know it at all. "

Sherlock loves to show off his long history at a time like this.

"Oh? Is our Cavendish family so great? It's amazing, I'm so proud."

"I can't hear your proud tone at all. You are an unfilial son."

"Then we don't know the location of the Dragon Kingdom, does it have anything to do with us coming here?"

"This is a little west of England. Although it is a remote country, there lives a magician who has some connections with the world. He is also an acquaintance of Lindel. It will take you to the country of dragons. of."

As I said this, behind the mound path in front, there is a row of low fences. On the other side of the fence, there is a small stone house in the wide yard. The double-layer tile house design does not look luxurious. It's even a bit simplistic.However, the ivy on the outer wall of the house makes it seem extraordinarily lifelike.

"Compared to the luxurious wizard, the magician's house is a bit simple."

"The hell knows what the old monsters who have lived for at least a thousand years are thinking. Now you are the only one in front... Guice? What's wrong with you?"

Sherlock suddenly saw Xing Ke's face was wrong and asked quickly.

"It's nothing, it's just that the words "thousand years" and "old monster" came out of your mouth. You continue."

Sherlock had to give up after hearing Xing Ke said that he was fine, and then said,

"Cough, it's fine, because magicians are special, the rules of wizards are that you can't contact, it's better not to contact, they just invited you alone, so you have to go alone on the road from here. "Sorry, Keith, Dad can only help you here."

"Okay, don't be ashamed, I'm alone, so? What's your truth?"

Xing Ke watched Zuozuo's performance and gritted his teeth.

"Just leave this thousand-year-old tortoise to you as a genius. I'm a weak scumbag, so don't join in the fun. Goodbye then, I'll wait for you at home. Also, the name of the owner there is..."

Without waiting for Xing Ke's response, Sherlock's slicker took a few steps back and ran away.

Only Xing Ke was left swaying in the wind.

With a sigh, Xing Ke continued to walk towards the small stone house that Sherlock feared like a wolf.With an unreliable father like Sherlock, Xing Ke has long been used to it, or there are too many reincarnations, and it is not surprising that he has seen a lot of various parents.

In fact, things like this get along pretty well.By the way, in this life, the mother who is married to Sherlock feels similar.

despair.

After a while, I didn't stop in other people's yards too much because I admired the beautiful flowerbeds and the cute little things hidden in the grass, and went straight to the door of the house.

He knocked on the door softly, waited patiently, and tidied up his clothes.

At least the most basic courtesy.

Not long after, a beautiful humanoid elf lady wearing a modern British long dress opened the wooden door to welcome the arrival of the star carving.

"Sorry to interrupt. Beautiful lady. Mage of Thorns and Shadows—Is Mr. Elias-Unzworth at home?"

ps:

025. There are always some professions that are not weakened by the official

Now sitting on the single sofa on the left side of the star carving is an inhuman.

Xing Ke dared to use his age to guarantee that it was not an illusion or a mask or something. The magician named Elias Enzworth opposite him was definitely an inhuman.

But oddly enough, ignoring his head, be it language, clothing, or demeanor, would definitely treat it like a human.

For some reason, this tall head is completely a skeleton that looks like a cow but not a cow, like a sheep but not a sheep. There are two mysterious luminous bodies in the eye sockets of the skeleton. According to the clothing, it must be a non-human magician of a male gentleman. I have been looking at the star carving.

Some Xing Ke, who was seen unnaturally nervous, took a sip from the teacup brought by Miss Elf, and first broke the quiet atmosphere.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Endsworth, who knows my name better than you, Jisforgo Cavendish, at the invitation of Mr. Lindell to the Land of Dragons. Since I don't know the path, first of all I came to you. Please take care of me."

"Mr. Cavendish, it's nice to meet you too. I'm sorry, I just want to know what kind of young man that Lindell spent so much time trying to see. Just when I knew of your arrival, I was already like a dragon. The country has sent a message, and when we get ready there, we can set off. Please rest here for a while and have some refreshments. I haven’t been here for a long time, so I don’t know if it suits your taste.”

"It's okay, Mr. Enzworth can just call me Guise. Your tea and desserts are very delicious. Thank you for your hospitality... But I have a question that I'm curious about. Can you help me?"

"It's alright, just ask, Guise."

"From the moment I entered the yard, I found out, why are there so many goblins here?"

Yes, since Xing Ke entered the scope of this yard, I have noticed that there are little elves hidden everywhere.

Of course, this elf is not one of those dirty house-elves doing chores in a wizard's house, but one of those who are now on the verge of extinction in this age, somewhere between the real and the illusory, pure-bred magical beings, nature The miracle creation, the elemental spirit.

It is born with the power to manipulate elements, and it is said that it is hidden and gathered in the depths of the forest that has not been polluted.This kind of elemental spirit invisible to ordinary people's eyes has been seen almost a handful of times since Xing Ke was born.

But in this space, Enzworth's house can be seen everywhere.

Whether it is on the table, in the unlit stove, or on the chandelier on the ceiling, they can be seen in different shapes according to different attributes.

The water elf is a blue lizard, the fire elf is a flame-colored bird, and the wood elf is a green snake...

"It seems, Guise, you don't know yet - what kind of group our magicians are, and what is the difference between them and your wizards."

"Sorry, Mr. Enzworth. You are not often mentioned in the wizarding world now, and many people regard you as a profession that is on the verge of extinction."

"Haha, it's not surprising, because we are really on the verge of extinction, let's not say that there will not be one person who owns this for decades, and there is also the danger of occupation, even the goblins and elves who are the core of occupation in the human world. There are fewer and fewer of them. There is no way around it.”

"...?"

"Let me first tell you what kind of profession a magician is. If you wizards are using the technology of [spell] to understand the laws and laws of this world, combine or replace them with their own magic power, and then create their own If we want [results], the [magic] that we magicians use is to communicate with fairies and elves, and use the innate talents of fairies and fairies to interfere with the law and cause [miracles]."

"Compared to [Result], [Miracle] may be more incredible, more powerful and versatile. Sometimes it can achieve things that wizard's spells can't do. But it's not without its shortcomings."

"This kind of behavior like borrowing someone else's hands and feet is very difficult and dangerous to operate."

"The restrictions on talent, the presence of elves and goblins are very strict. So it's now an endangered profession."

"It's also for some reason like this? The wizards who are also mysterious and have other professions are not very willing to contact us."

Xing Ke was stunned when he heard it now.Don't want to contact you?Isn't that of course?

In this era when the amount of magic that can be used is less and less due to the limitation of magic power, because your profession is external force, the organ that casts spells is not your own brain, but the elves and goblins that existed in ancient times, this profession Not weakened at all.

Even if new talents have never been born, and the number is small, of course, a magician like you who has existed for more than a thousand years will be feared, right?

At least it's a matter of course.

"Well, I still know the reason and so on, so I don't have any idea. But come to think of it, only you, the darling of the heavens with an innate amount of magic power, can communicate with us on an equal footing."

Do you have mind reading skills?But what he said was very clear.

"It's an honor. Endsworth. You're right, the gap in power has created an insurmountable gap between you and others in dialogue. If I'm being hypocritical, I can't justify it."

Xing Ke said with a smile.

At the beginning, Xing Ke put himself in contact with Enzworth from the perspective of a [young man] because of his habitual disguise, but, the ancient magician who is not bound by modern secular etiquette - Enzworth was expecting Equal access to equals.

Just like an ant and an elephant cannot be friends, but an elephant and an elephant can.

If you don't understand the meaning of Enzworth, the star carving will be in vain.

"How is it? It's still a while before lunch. Would you like to test if you, the wizard's favorite, have the talent for magicians? If you just contract with an elves or goblins, it doesn't actually conflict with your wizard spells, right? "

"Enzworth, do you have the ability to read minds? One of the reasons I accepted the invitation was to gain your unique knowledge or secret skills."

"No, but anyone who sees you looking at the elemental elf with a curious and frenzied gaze will know what you're thinking."

"hey-hey……"

"It doesn't matter, all the ancestors of your wizards I know are fanatical explorers."

"Ah? Is that so? Then can you tell me what species you are in the first place? Is that a skeleton?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Are you planning to mess with the past?"

"Let's talk about testing talent."

In this way, it took Xing Ke and Enzworth less than two hours from the first meeting to getting along well...

ps:

026. It turns out that there is no shortage of immortals in the magic world

"Isn't it more appropriate to call you a wizard or an elves rather than magicians?"

Walking on the wilderness that could not be seen at a glance, Xing Ke asked while studying the book from Enzworth.

"Oh? Did you really ask that?"

Enzworth, who was leading the way, seemed to have long known that Xing Ke would have such questions, and answered with a familiarity.

"In ancient times, whether it was a wizard or a magician, the names of various mysterious foods were actually called by ordinary people. It was the wizard who used the crucible to do evil experiments, and manipulated various elements to achieve miracles. The magician, the shining healer is the priest. But these are all wrong."

As if remembering something absurd, Enzworth's tone became... sarcastic.

"Wizards' experiments are not evil, but the basis of the most primitive science they use. They can't see the existence of elves or goblins, so they associate the appearance of operating elements with the production of miracles, and it is due to magic that makes itself The power of the priest. The light of the priest is meaningless, and their healing is not omnipotent, but it is regarded as the power of the gods by most people, so in the end, the magician became the magician, and the priest became the apostle of God... It's ridiculous. ."

"Enzworth... This is a fact that there is no way to do it. At that time, human beings were still in an uncivilized era. Without understanding knowledge, human beings are visual creatures, and they will always use their first impression to judge the goodness of the things in front of them. Evil or safety, after all, the wizard's experiment doesn't seem to give people a good feeling."

"It's okay, it'll get better with time... We're almost there, and Lindell said he'll pick us up around here."

On the edge of a higher cliff, Enzworth suddenly told Xing Ke to stop.

"Ah...you have to be so careful, how careful Mr. Lindell is."

Xing Ke has long understood that the existence of Ensworth is also a kind of filter on whether Xing Ke will cause harm to the Dragon Kingdom.

After all, if Xing Ke was a dragon slayer, then Lindel's invitation would be interesting.

"You can forgive the old man's worries. After the war with the wizard, the Dragon Kingdom rarely has contact with the outside world."

"Okay, can you tell me where we are on Earth now? It feels a little cold after the space shift."

"Is it here? This is..."

At this wonderful time, a hurricane suddenly hit the sky, followed by a shadow that blocked the sun, accompanied by a clear spring-like male voice appeared above the heads of Xing Ke and the two:

"Welcome to the last land of dragons - Iceland, young of wizards."

A light-blue scaled flying dragon the size of an adult elephant landed next to Star Carving and Enzworth, and from the dragon's back came a man dressed in a robe of a certain ethnic style, with a head that was as pale gold as Star Carving. With long hair, he was a much more handsome young man than Xing Ke.

"Lindel, you interrupted me... As he said, Guise, this is the volcanic island floating in the Arctic Ocean, called [Iceland] on the map."

Enzworth first complained about the handsome guy who fell from the sky, and then answered Xing Ke's question completely.
