The Legend of Fatality

When all the officials were seated, Amen Cannon began to speak: "Today is an apprenticeship day. From now on, the children gathered here will become citizens of Fatalin, no longer children, but apprentices or I ’m a free person. This special day gives me obligations and powers to ask every child here who is about to become a citizen of Fatalin, if any of you want to be relieved of your duty to serve Fatalin. Some of you want Is this so? "

This is part of a process devised by officials of the Fatalin Association, a question that is only necessary in form and does not want to be answered, and few people really want to leave Fatalin.

As expected, no one stood up or answered the question aloud.

Amen Cannon turned to signal the herald to continue.

The herald announced loudly that the first master craftsman-the master shipbuilder-Holm, stepped forward and read out the names of the three boys loudly. They all obeyed the master's arrangement, and no one showed dissatisfaction. The selection continued, and no child refused to choose their master of art. All the boys selected came out and stood beside their teachers.

With the gradual loss of afternoon time and the gradual decrease in the number of waiting boys, red eyes have become increasingly uncomfortable. Soon, only two boys stood beside the red eyes, but Butler stood in the middle of the courtyard. Almost all master craftsmen have chosen their apprentices, and only two master craftsmen and sword masters of the Fatalin Association have not yet come out.

Red eyes looked up at the stage, several mages were staring at him, the night owl had a friendly smile on his face, Bai En looked gloomyly under his face, and Falheim was already bored with the whole ceremony, his face appeared A bit of unbearable pain. He whispered a few words with the mage standing beside him, but he was unexpectedly discovered by Amen Cannon, who showed a reproachful look.

The equestrian master Wolfe stepped forward, wearing a shirt with gold and brown stripes and a delicate horse head logo show on his left chest. The equestrian master read out the name of the son of the groom, Dick, and the chunky son of the groom quickly walked behind his teacher.

When he turned around, he smiled badly at the red eyes. The two boys have never lived together peacefully. This freckled boy always spends a lot of time trying to humiliate red eyes. When they work together in the stable, as long as the groom is not paying attention, his son will find a way to frame the red eyes, and the poor orphans always have to endure these difficulties. For Red Eye, it was a terrible memory, and he vowed that even if he refused the invitation of the master craftsman, he could not bear to work with Dick for the rest of his life.

But the equestrian master called another boy's name. Now, in the position of the red eye in the yard, only he and Butler stood alone. Red eyes looked up to other positions, and many children are now standing alone in their own positions. In the distance there was a small place where the children got together, but the expression on their faces seemed to already know the result, and there was nothing to worry about.

Immediately afterwards, the master of swordsmanship Middle-Hunt stepped forward, and Red Eye felt that his heart would stop beating until he heard the gorgeously dressed warrior shouting out loudly: "Son of Mag-Butler. "

Then there was a suffocating silence, red eyes waiting to hear his name, but Middle-Hunt turned back and Butler followed, leaving the red eyes alone.

Red Eye feels that he has become extremely small under the gaze of many eyes. The entire yard has never been as empty as he is now. He feels so shameful and shabby.

Immediately afterwards, it was time for the Masters to choose their apprentices. The Masters wearing various robes and other costumes stepped forward and shouted the child ’s name. Every child selected by the mage is very excited. As time went on, some of the masters behind did not even bother to call their names, but waved directly at a child, and the child would run over with a smile and leave with him.

The red-eyed heart slowly sank, and he gradually realized that the masters had already chosen their apprentices. Before they played, there were no master craftsmen and no apprentices. Now, he is the only boy who has not been selected. No master craftsman wants him, and no mage wants him. He tried hard to hold back the tears, waiting for Amen Cannon to announce the end of the ceremony.

Amen Cannon opened his mouth slightly, preparing to end Shen Chang's ritual. He looked at the lonely thin figure in the courtyard. His face showed sympathy for the boy who was not selected by anyone. He even began to think about whether to choose him. At this moment, a loud voice interrupted him. "Sir, please forgive me."

All eyes turned to Master Bane who was walking slowly. "I need an apprentice, whose name is Red Eye, an orphan in the spellcaster academy."

A noisy whispering conversation broke out among many mages. One part is obviously not understanding why Bai En chose such a child as his apprentice. Amen Cannon signaled everyone's quietness with severe eyes, his face dignified. No mage dared to challenge the authority of Amen Cannon—even without considering the identity of his president of the Fatalin Association. Amen Cannon turned to look at the boy. Slowly, all the mage's eyes focused on the red eyes.

"Red eye-the orphan of the Spellcaster Academy, do you accept it?" Amen Cannon said seriously.

The red-eye stiff German stood, he had imagined becoming a knight chief, leading Fatalin's army to fight on the battlefield, or one day he was found to be a child lost by some royal family. In his childhood fantasies, he imagined sailing across the ocean and fighting terrible monsters to save the entire country.

In some quiet times, he also thought about using his life to build ships, or to make pottery, or to learn to do business, thinking about how brilliant achievements will be made in these industries. However, there is only one thing he never thought about, even dreaming, that is to become a magician.

Red eyes gradually recovered from the shock, only to notice that Amen Cannon was waiting patiently for his answer. He looked at the faces that followed him one by one. Maria gave him a rare smile, his friends also cast an encouraging look, and Mag stared at him meaningfully.

A trace of worry flashed over Master Bane's face. Suddenly, Red Eye made a decision. This is what he really wanted. Maybe it was because of fear or something. He didn't dare to expect this kind of thing to happen, but he actually expected anything to become a mage than fantasy.

Red eyes stepped forward, but his back foot accidentally stepped on the front heel and fell to the ground. He quickly got up and came to Master Baien with a gray face and a half crawl. Amen Cannon couldn't help laughing. With red eyes and red face, he stood behind Master Bane. He looked around and found that Amencanon was watching him, nodding slightly at the concern with his red eyes. Amen Cannon turned to those who waited for the ceremony to end.

"I declare that all the children have found their teachers. They will obey their teachers completely under the law of Fatalin. They will prove to be a citizen worthy of Fatalin. Let the apprentices follow the teacher to learn .. I wish you all a happy dinner tonight. "He turned around, gestured to several mages around him, and then walked into the caster academy through the respectful officials standing on both sides.

Several mages of the Fatalin Association followed, followed by other officials. Redeye saw Butler walking behind the master of swordsmanship Middle-Hunt to the guard's barracks.

Bai En turned his gaze back to the red eyes that seemed a little lost. After a while, Bai En said: "I believe we did nothing wrong today."

"Sir?" Red Eye asked, not understanding what the mage meant. Bai En waved absently, and the black robe on him was rippled like waves. "It doesn't matter, kid. What you have to do must be done, let's do our best."

He put his hands on the boy ’s shoulders, "Yeah, do n’t call me sir, call me a mentor. Come with me now, let ’s go to the tower where I live, there is a small room that once belonged to me that would suit you very well I originally wanted to seal it up or do something else-the room where the greatest mage had lived. But I could n’t find time to clean it up. "

While talking, Bai En exaggerated with his hands in the air, trying to show some kind of magnificent landscape to the red eye ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ but the red eye saw nothing but the courtyard walls and roads.

Red eyes stood in awe, "Give me a room?" He had never heard an apprentice get this treatment when he came up. Most apprentices can only sleep in their teacher's workroom, or in stables or stables. Only when an apprentice becomes at least mastered with the most basic skills can he own his own residence.

Bai En raised his eyebrows, "Of course, you can't walk around me all day long, then I can't do anything. In addition, magic requires you to realize and meditate alone. You may need it more than me An undisturbed space. "He took off his slender dagger from his robe, thought about it again, and then pulled out a purse from a pocket.

"Let ’s not worry about these so-called rules and responsibilities, boy. In fact, I ’m not ready for how to start, and, in a short time, I still have something to do. After that, we can go deeper into each other. Get to know the other party. Do you agree? "Red Eye was a little surprised. The only thing he knew about Master Bane was meeting him the day before.

However, this is by no means the style of any master master he knows, nor even the style of a master. No master will ask the apprentice if he agrees with his plan. Red-eye didn't know how to answer for a while, and nodded.

"Excellent, then," said Bai En, "let's go to my mage tower to find you some new clothes, and then we will go to the feast of the apprentice day. Although I think this custom is too deliberate, But it seems to be a good thing to expect. After that, we spend some time learning how to be a mage and a mage apprentice. "He gave the boy a smile and turned away with red eyes.
