If this is the case, Hill can remove some of his doubts.
Giant dragons are very proud creatures. It would be too easy for the red dragon to defect to the River Styx. It has only been a few years!
Their usual style is to make choices when death is imminent... Dracolich is the end they are least willing to accept. How could an ancient red dragon transform itself into a ghost dragon so easily?
Compared with the bone dragon, the only advantage of the Nether Dragon controlled by Styx is that it still retains its independent will and the switching mode that it can transform into a ghost or a physical entity.
But no matter how you say it, he is no longer a red dragon.
Although he clearly values his offspring so much, he would give up his identity as a five-color dragon. This has always filled Hill with doubts.
Therefore, no matter what tricks the dragon was playing, Hill stayed firmly in the magic tower and had no desire to participate.
Hill knows that he is not good at those intrigues, but he can do one thing, that is, when he is unclear about something that has nothing to do with him, he will not even stand by and watch.
If you want to watch the excitement, you can stay far away.
Hill resolutely did not allow himself to change from a theatergoer to an actor one day.
How happy those days were for him!
But when he thought that he would become the person who provided pleasure to others, Hill felt uncomfortable all over.
Fortunately, Hill can now understand a little bit more about what the red dragon did.
Then he can indeed find a suitable time to start Hilbert's recovery schedule after arranging Russell's follow-up homework.
------------------
Russell had no idea that after he woke up from a beautiful dream, he would not receive the teacher's admiring glance, but almost half of the library's books.
Facing his incredulous look, Hilbert just said as if no one else was watching: "The Heinalson family has been in a bit of chaos recently. Do you understand what I asked you to explain to your family?"
"Yes, I wrote a letter to them." Russell frowned and answered seriously.
The letters from the mages are all sealed with their own special magic seals, and since both of them are capable of phantom sound, there will basically be no misunderstandings.
"Then don't worry about anything." Hilbert said calmly, "As long as they stay in the family, there won't be any problems. Ulrich can already use the intermediate protective array.
"
"Yeah." Russell understood what his teacher meant...as long as he stayed in the family mansion, his life would never be in danger.
This is enough.
Although it also slightly hinted at other things: for example, if he and Carpenter's family make mistakes, then don't blame the family for not caring about their safety.
Russell glanced at Hilbert. The person who valued his family the most was right in front of him!
He would only care about someone who even Gilbert would give up if he was crazy... Anyway, his biological father and mother would not be that stupid. If his brothers and sisters were stupid, they would be tempted by outsiders, and they would not even want to listen to what he said.
If you don't believe in him, why should you care about him?
And Carpenter, his little sister, doesn't have the same affection for his family as he does, so it would be nice if he could explain it.
Although she is very kind to her family, she does so under the premise that her family will not affect her.
Their teacher was worthy of being a man who had given up on himself for the sake of his family. He always felt that others would be like him... Russell and Carpenter were both people who paid back what others gave them.
Although sadness is inevitable, does the person who has been abandoned still have to struggle with pain and continue to pay for the person who gave up on him?
Absolutely impossible.
"I probably won't come out of the meditation room within a year." Hilbert glanced at the brat who didn't know what he was thinking... It was obviously not a good thing, but Hill quickly reacted, Russell
Even if you think of something unpleasant to say, it won't be him who is criticizing you.
Hilbert, who felt calm for a moment, ordered in a calm tone: "You have to read the books here within this time.
You don’t need to memorize everything, but when I do a random check, I need to see your own understanding.
And Carpenter, I hope that when I see her again, she will already be an official mage.
This little thing should be no problem, right?
Um?"
Russell, who already understood what an official mage was, was not worried about Carpenter's promotion.
The two met almost every day. Russell could almost estimate how long it would take for Carpenter's spiritual sea to be filled with spiritual power and possibly expand... From the moment he was promoted, Russell understood why Gilbert
The teacher calculated his various situations so clearly.
If you come into contact with the spiritual sea at different levels every day, you can indeed feel the movement of the shallow sea with only a thin layer of water under the deeper and wider sea.
The sound of waves coming from the shallow sea is so clear that there is no need to listen carefully.
But Russell was worried about the half of the library's books...especially the thick bronze books. He could tell after just two glances at the titles that he probably couldn't even understand what was written in them.
.
In fact, Russell has always had a feeling that Teacher Gilbert's understanding should be very high, far beyond that of ordinary people... For someone like him, of course he knows that his understanding is not bad, but he is still in the category of ordinary people.
Gilbert is definitely not.
Every time Russell listened to Gilbert's teachings, he would have to think for a long time before he could figure out the profound meaning of those words.
At first, he only thought it was a test from the teacher, but later he discovered that their teacher really believed that he could see it when he heard it, and understand it when he saw it.
However, Russell simply couldn't do it, and he had to help Carpenter hear her part.
Otherwise, Carpenter would probably have to cry into his pillow.
Although his thinking speed has indeed become much faster due to this kind of training, and looking back on the past, he feels that he was a dull idiot, Russell still feels that he is far from what Gilbert requires.
He said in a difficult tone: "Teacher, Carpenter is fine, the book... is available."
"Huh?" Hilbert was a little surprised, "I took your endurance into account, so I didn't give you content above level 3. Things from level 0 to level 2 are not that big of a difference from the apprenticeship period."
Russell tried hard to suppress the veins on his forehead: "Teacher, maybe you can, I..."
"My words...well, I didn't set homework for you at my own pace." Hilbert looked at the ignorant little brat seriously, "But I measured my endurance against other people before I gave it to you.
These classes you arranged!”
They are all sons of the world. If Gilbert can do it, Russell can definitely do it too!
Although he selectively ignored the premise that if Gilbert wasn't so crazy, he might have seen the demise of his family and even himself, Hill felt that Russell, who had been trained by him for so long, would definitely be able to do it.
Russell tilted his head and couldn't help but ask: "Who is the teacher comparing me to?"
Hilbert blinked: "Well... the students of Archmage Lute."
He knew it!
Among the students of Archmage Lute, there is no mage below the sixth level that can impress Teacher Gilbert, right?
Can we compare it to someone like him?
Russell sometimes deeply doubts that his teacher understands what it means to be an ordinary person.
He probably only knows those people who can't learn well, but he can't understand it at all. Can people who can't learn well be divided into grades, right?
Although Russell was still a little happy that Teacher Gilbert trusted him, it was really a bit difficult for him!
In particular, he is still not very good at understanding the muddle-headed writing methods of those mages.
Russell said very seriously: "Teacher, I will study very seriously, but I may not be able to finish it.
The biggest problem with your books is that they are not all on the same level of difficulty. Some books are particularly difficult to understand.
You may not feel this, but I...it's really a little difficult."
Hilbert was actually a little confused. Of course he had scanned all the books here and corrected some logical errors, but the content? None of them were very profound!
"What kind?" he couldn't help but ask.
Russell turned around and took out several bronze books that looked very chronological from the row of large bookshelves behind him: "The words written on the bronze pages are a bit too simple and require a lot of thinking.
Only by adding a lot can we understand what they really want to say.”
Hilbert gently put his hand on his cheek and asked a little hesitantly: "The Heinalson family... doesn't even have a grammar teacher anymore?"
Russell was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Was there one before?"
Ulrich disliked his own family even more than Hill thought!
In other words, because of those things in the past, the child no longer wants to devote himself wholeheartedly to the family like his father, right?
The former ancient grammar teacher of the Heinalson family was Gilbert's eldest brother.
Ulrich did not take over his father's position, and Gilbert did not think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Ulrich's talent was indeed slightly weaker and he needed more time to learn.
But in his memory, Ulrich never said that if he didn't teach, no one could teach such a thing.
Hilbert shook his head: "Then, just start over from the grammar book, take Carpenter... and do your best."
