Devil's Law

Chapter 3 [The Road of Magic]

The i***t young master of the Luolin family angered the erudite teacher, which almost became the most famous joke in the imperial capital in recent days.

Many boring people are talking about this with gloating. Who is Count Raymond of the Rowling family now? Seeing such a big man unlucky is very in line with the dark psychology of some boring people.

Moreover, Count Raymond also made a mistake. His reward for looking for someone to let his children speak has become a new thing, a big news.

And because of that incident, the i***t young master of the Rowling family suddenly made famous! It has become the focus of people's willing to talk about.

Even in the past two years in the imperial capital, many people will habitually say when giving birth to children: "Oh, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. As long as you are healthy. Don't give birth to a little i***t like the unlucky Rowling family."

On this day, Master Du Wei welcomed his father again.

The person who came with the count this time made Du Wei very much disliked. Because this man is wearing a gray robe and a gray pointed hat, he also has thin fingers and turbid eyes.

This guy's whole body exudes an uncomfortable rotten and old smell. Moreover, the grim breath on his body made Du Wei sneeze fiercely.

"Master Clark, this is my son." The Vice President of the Imperial Command, the No. 2 figure of the Imperial Army, the Count spoke politely to the guy beside him: "Please see if he has even a little future on the sacred magic road?"

It seems that the count is helpless. This time he invited his son to teach the famous Clark mage in the imperial capital.

If "magician" can also be regarded as a profession, then this profession is undoubtedly one of the most respected industries. Although, this so-called "respect" is more with a trace of fear.

Everywhere, magicians are a symbol of noble status. They can be on an equal level with any nobleman and get the best treatment. A powerful magician's role in war is comparable to that of a small army! And all magicians are the targets of any national leader! Not only because magicians have superhuman skills, but also because these people do not pose a threat to the power of leaders!

A magician spends most of his life studying magic or meditating to accumulate magic. Almost all magicians have no desire of secular people. They are not greedy for money, because a qualified alchemist can turn stubborn stones into gems or gold with magic! Valuable gems are just some magic auxiliary props in their eyes.

And magicians have no desire for power. Their lives are aimed at pursuing the mystery of magic. Secular power is not seen by them. This is even more pleasing to those in power!

It can be said that in the whole Roland world, magicians are the most noble industry. They are recruited by all powerful people and can enjoy the best treatment!

However, the count 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, lonely and eccentric by nature, and they don't like to deal with people. They like to close themselves and indulge in magic research. No noble girl would like to fall in love with a monster who hides in the research room all day. No noble party will invite a cold magician to destroy the atmosphere. No emperor will grant a title to a magician or let a magician be an important minister of the empire!

And Du Wei, after all, is his own son! He is the heir of the Rowling family! He needs to fall in love in the future, get married and have children, continue his family, and participate in various social occasions in aristocratic circles. However, who says that his son is an "i***t" who can't learn martial arts or literature? It seems that in order to achieve a little achievement, the magician is his last choice!

If the great Rowling family can produce a superb magician in history, although it is a little nondescript, it is acceptable!

With Xi Yi's eyes, the count sent Mage Clark and took his son into a ready closed room. All right, boy." After entering the room, Master Clark immediately took out a small bottle, poured out a little golden powder at his fingertips, quickly drew a large circle in the room, and then turned to look at Du Wei: "I have put a silent spell. Now, we are talking here, and no one can hear it outside.

Then, the cold-faced magician walked to Du Wei and looked at the little one in front of him: "Now, tell me, boy, what is magic in your heart?"

What is magic?

This question made Du Wei hesitate for a moment. From his true thoughts, he is a little interested in the "magic" of the world. After all, he also knows many magnificent legends about magic.

But what exactly is magic? In Du Wei's impression, when the so-called magician uses magic, he usually sings loudly, "God of the wind, please listen to my call. Words like..."

Then, there are things like flying sand and stones, ghost crying and howling.

Looking at the child in front of him not talking, I think this question is too profound for this young child. Clark smiled and said in a low and slow voice: Magic is the mystery given by the omnipotent god to human beings to unlock the revelation of the gods! It is the way for human beings to pursue the ultimate power in this world! It is the source of knowing yourself, the world, and unlocking the greatest gift from the gods to mankind!

Clark's voice in a gray robe had a divine taste. Unfortunately, this word is not cold for Du Wei. Because of these seemingly noble words, Du Wei was really suspected of pretending.

The young Du Wei's face showed nothing, and the child's silence also made the arrogant magician mistakenly think that he was afraid of himself. He was satisfied with the reaction of the count's heir. Then, the magician took out a fist-sized crystal ball from the wide gray robe.

"Spiritual power 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 opened his mouth, and he asked the question in his heart: "Spiritual power? Magic? However, isn't it only magicians who have magic?"

Clark's eyes widened: "Who told you this outrageous statement? Damn it, is there anyone in the Earl's House who doesn't even have this common sense?

The magician was angered by this common sense mistake: "Spiritual power is the saying of ordinary people. For magicians, spiritual power is magic! The magician can constantly strengthen and increase his spiritual power through the method of meditation, and then use the spiritual power beyond ordinary people to sense the world, the mystery of nature, and all kinds of forces in the natural world. Only people with strong spiritual power can do this! Increasing the accumulated spiritual power can make the magician more clearly sense the magic elements of the world, and the so-called magic is to use some tricks to let the magician rely on his own spiritual strength to command, or borrow a little power in the natural world for the magician - this is magic.

Du Wei sighed: "I understand that spiritual power is magic. And the so-called magic is actually a kind of leverage. The magician uses this lever to borrow the power of nature. There was a trace of surprise in Clark's turbid eyes: "I can't believe it, oh, a five-year-old child, oh, you are very smart, but who calls you an i***t?"

Du Wei didn't say anything about this question, but just looked at the magician silently. The arrogant Clark magician will not waste time on such a small problem. He was just a little surprised and ignored the problem.

"In this world, this natural world contains too many magical elements. Every point and every drop of them is the source of power. Rain, thunder and lightning, blizzard and strong wind, and even the replacement of sun, moon and stars, the blooming and withering of flowers and plants, all of which are the source of power in nature. And an excellent magician can fully sense all kinds of subtle and clear movements in the world.

The 'leverage' you just said is a very interesting metaphor. Simply put, the stronger the leverage you have, the more powerful natural forces you can mobilize. And the leverage is too weak, and the natural power that can be mobilized is very limited.

Du Wei sighed, "So that's it. I thought that the magician's power came from his own magic.

Clark frowned again: "I have to wonder who said such uncommon sense to you? What I just said is the common sense that even the lowest-level magic apprentice knows! Does power come from its own magic? My God, I have to correct you. Remember that human power is limited, no matter how strong it is! A magician can do things that ordinary people can't do. For example, a powerful magician can wave a hill or summon a storm, but that is by no means the power of the magician himself. But through magic, with the help of the power of nature in the world! And this world is created by God for us, so, at the root, when magicians use magic, they use the power of gods! Remember, human beings are created by gods, and human beings can never have the power of gods! That's a taboo! The power of the magician comes from nature, from the god who created this nature!"

He lowered his voice and frowned, "I'm wondering how can the Rowling family have a child like you who is so wrong about common sense. If you still say outside that the power of a magician comes from yourself when you are an adult, I can't guarantee that you won't be burned to death on the stake in front of the temple! Because of your words, you are fundamentally doubting the gods!"

Du Wei closed his mouth, his eyes returned to Muran, and then lowered his small head, hiding his expression appropriately.
