The headquarters of the newly formed magic association is in the magic city of Oisast in the northern countries. It is a long way away and due to the war of demon invasion, free access is not allowed. After the flying magic was completely perfected, Luke chose to submit it to the Magic Association branch in the Royal City. After learning of his intention, Zane, the minister of the Magic Association branch, a plainly dressed and very kind-looking old magician, received him. After Luke cast flying magic, Zane marveled at the incredible wonder and gave Luke a token representing the highest level of magician, a pendant composed of a ring and a triangle. "Sir Lu Ke, you have two options. The first is to directly obtain a large amount of buyout fee. The value of flying magic is very high, which can completely guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing." "The second is to get a share of flying magic. In this way, one-third of the gold coins spent by magicians who learn flying magic will go to you." Zain stroked his beard, “I don’t know which one you want to choose?” "Which one do you think is suitable?" Luke asked Zane after thinking for a moment. "If you are an ordinary human, you can choose either option, but as an elf you have an infinite lifespan, so naturally it is better to choose the second option." Luke smiled and said, "This choice is not good for the Magic Association. Is it really okay for you to suggest this?"
"There is no need for a magic association that would chill magicians. I have always thought so." Hearing this, Lu Ke was slightly moved and said seriously: "You are a conscientious senior." He thought for a while: "There is one condition. If the Magic Association can agree, I will choose the first option." "I hope that flying magic can be provided free of charge to the military or magicians who temporarily join the army to fight against the demons." Zane nodded with a serious face and bowed to Luke, "This is of great significance to mankind. Thank you for your kindness." After reaching an agreement, Luke went through a series of complex and tedious certifications and finally signed his signature. The attendant brought a brown leather suitcase, which itself was an expensive magic device. It was not large on the surface, but its actual capacity exceeded imagination, and the weight remained the same. After saying goodbye to Zane, Luke returned to Barum and the Campbell Mansion without stopping. But this time the person who greeted him was not the familiar Mr. Butler, but a strange young man. The young man was wearing the same clothes as Mr. Butler, with a nervous look on his young face. He lowered his head in panic when he saw Luke. "Master Luke, I am the new butler Charles. I will be responsible for the dispatching work in the mansion from now on. Please feel free to give me your orders." Luke stopped, unable to hear any emotion, "Mr. Arnold from before..." "That's my father. While you were away, my father fell seriously ill and has returned to his hometown to recuperate. I'm here to take over his work." Charles explained quickly, looking a little uneasy, as if he was worried that Luke would be dissatisfied with his performance. As far as he knew, although Luke was a guest on the surface, Ms. Luo Yin had long regarded him as her own child, especially after Amir left. As long as he casually told Ms. Luo Yin, his work will be replaced. "I understand, go and do your work." Thinking of the housekeeper who had been with him and Amir for more than 20 years, leaving without even saying goodbye properly, Luke felt that the joy of returning home was slightly diluted. He walked straight into the hall and saw Ms. Luo Yin, whose face was full of joy. "Lu Ke, you are back." Ms. Luo Yin said with a bit of briskness in her voice. "Amir's letter has been sent again. He is living a good life in the army and recently killed a demon. clan general."
"That's really amazing." Lu Ke smiled and catered, listening to Ms. Luo Yin talking to him about Amir. It seems to be a general law that the older you get, the more nagging you get. Even an elegant and calm person like Ms. Luo Yin has not been able to escape the passage of time. She smiled sheepishly after talking for a while. "Just talking about him, how are you doing on your trip? The Magic Association didn't give you any trouble, right?" "No, the president of the Wangcheng branch is very kind." "That's good, that's good." Ms. Luo Yin's smile deepened, "Actually, you don't have to worry about marrying Terela. Although Campbell has not been as prosperous as before in recent years, he can still use the property for his children's marriage. of." She looked at Luke tenderly, "As long as I accept you as my adopted son and bear the surname Campbell, you won't have to bear these things." "Thank you, ma'am, but studying magic is an interest of mine, not just for Traela, and I've got enough funding." Ms. Luo Yin nodded, looking a little lonely, "Okay, but why don't you want to join the Campbell family? Are you unwilling to treat me as your mother, or do you want to take care of Lenise's feelings?" "How could it be? You have always been an elder I respect very much, and Lenis is not someone who cares about this kind of thing." Luke smiled, "It's just that I want to keep something to prove that my previous memories are not a waste of time." Dream." "Memories from the past?" Ms. Luo Yin was a little surprised, "But you have lived here since you were born." Luke smiled silently and did not answer, "Amir should also have a letter for me. I want to go back and read it first." Amir's letters came intermittently three times during this period, two letters each, one to his mother, Ms. Luo Yin, and one to Luke. Luo Yin nodded understandingly, "Go ahead." Luke slowly backed away and returned to the room. Treila considerately prepared a hot bath for the tired Luke, and she also resisted the urge to eat for her lover who had been away for several days, but chose to sleep honestly. Although she was very clingy, she never disturbed Luke when she encountered serious matters, which made the elf feel very comfortable. Although her hands and feet were still a little dishonest. After Treila fell asleep, Luke got up gently and took out a magic book from the bookshelf. He walked out of the room, flew to the roof of the mansion, sat down at a mottled small table, then turned the pages of the book and took out the envelope. The contents of Amir's two letters were probably different, because Ms. Royne would be in better spirits every time she read the letters, and she would smile more than usual, while the ones Luke received were more real and colder, and it was not very pleasant to read. My friend wrote to me: After the Sword Village, the battle became more and more intense. The demons were like cockroaches that could not be killed. I was a little reluctant to kill the demon larvae at first, but later I gradually became an executioner who could efficiently kill the enemies in front of me with a wave of my hand. Captain Lacey comforted me and told me that the demons did not deserve sympathy. They were just beasts with human appearance. Their human form and language were just disguises. Their cold hearts were their true nature. I knew all this, but their disguise was too good. They looked exactly like humans and could speak. This made me worry that I would become numb to killing and lose my reverence for life in the future. The bodies of the demons will soon dissipate, but I always feel that my sword has been stained with blood. Luke, was I protected too well before that I could not understand the cruelty of the battlefield? My friend wrote to me: After passing through Apertido, we came to the Alte Forest.
The troops were attacked here. Captain Lacey sacrificed himself to lead us out of the siege. I took over his position and became the captain of the team. On the way, I encountered a powerful monster Chaos Flower. My comrades died one after another. With their cover, I killed the monster. Afterwards, I received applause and honor, but I couldn't be happy. Many of my comrades who lived and died with me died, and I will never see their faces again. Why is life so fragile? The troops did not move forward. Our goal is to hold our positions and resist the invasion of the demons. This is not an easy job, but I believe we can do it. It's just that I feel less and less like myself. I can't laugh heartily, I can't run freely, I can't be afraid and terrified, I have to make a convincing majesty, so as to stabilize the morale of the army. This feeling is a bit annoying, but I can only pretend like this. My friend: Today I saw the generals of the demons for the first time. They are the elite of the demon king, except for the Seven Collapse Sages, the All-Knowing Shulahat, the Corrupted Sage and other high-end combat forces. Too powerful! If there hadn't been a powerful brave team to rescue us, we would have been wiped out, but fortunately we survived and joined the brave team to behead the demon general. I deeply realized that my strength was not enough to touch the demon king. Amir Campbell was not someone who could kill the demon king, end the war, and bring peace. I miss you a little bit. I miss everything in the mansion, my mother's nagging, the noble etiquette that I used to hate to learn, teacher Lannis, and the meals you taught Bal to make. I dreamed of the scene of our competition on the lawn. You dodged my attack calmly like before, pointed out my weaknesses, tripped me, and then reached out to me who fell to the ground. But I didn't plan to go back. Even if I couldn't kill the demon king, killing one more demon would tilt the scales of victory to humans. Luke, I don't know if I have matured or become more naive than before with this mentality. Do you think I have grown up a little? After reading the latest letter, Luke frowned, and had the urge to rush to the front line to pull his rebellious son back. But as he had said to Ms. Royne before, if Amir really wanted to join the army, he would not stop him from choosing his own life. The same goes for staying in the army. Returning to the room with a heavy heart, Luke saw a candle burning inside. He pushed the door open and saw that Trela had sat up from the bed without knowing when. "Why didn't you tell me before you left?" Luke did not hide it from her, "I went to read Amir's letter. The content was not very comfortable to read. I was worried that it would affect you, so I waited until you went to bed before reading it." "I think bad emotions should be vented in time. It is easy to get sick if you hold it in your heart. Tell me about it." Luke simply told her about Amir, and Trela nodded thoughtfully. "It was Amir's choice to join the army and fight the Demon King's army. If you really care, you can help him in your own way." Treila smiled, "Isn't flying magic a good example? If you develop magic that is beneficial to the war situation and improve the overall strength of mankind, he will naturally be safer."
Luke pondered for a moment and looked at Treila in surprise, "Treila, are you very smart?" Treila rolled her eyes, "You are stupid except for fighting and studying. Do you want to recall how I cheated you?" Luke recalled for a moment and opened his mouth, but couldn't speak for a while.
