Chapter 679: The Epic of Mystra with a Changed Key
Although Terry didn't quite understand the meaning of selling the oil painting fragment to that wretched old guy, since he had money, and it was a large sum of money, he could definitely handle it properly.
Anyway, at this time, as a giant dragon, it is quite normal to sell strange items related to the magic network that you don't know when they will be useful again in exchange for gold coins.
He likes shiny golden dragons and doesn't think Mystra's junk is more important than gold coins. He can't use it, so Terry happily runs away with the pieces.
Hill walked to the terrace, sat on a chair and stared down at the hotel.
Hill had a deep impression on that alchemist. After all, he appeared in the farce when Waterdeep City first welcomed the undead.
Kapiyan Flumastir, a learned mage, was the unlucky man who had a conflict with Kelben's students because of the attack by the undead.
Hill later specifically checked his identity. After all, he could publicly represent Waterdeep City, so his identity couldn't be too low.
Then it was discovered that his reputation was indeed very loud, but he was mainly popular among the upper class. He relied on selling special potions to fund his own research on Mystra's blessing magic.
Of course, the one who is more famous than him is his former female apprentice and current wife. Many nobles went to buy medicines in person just to have a look at this drugstore cupid with big breasts and fat buttocks.
After Aglaea City defeated the incoming Zhentarim, Flumastir took his wife, who was more in line with the preferences of the Northlanders, and checked into Hill's Inn.
And he has never planned to leave, acting as if he has always been here.
When the gangsters in Waterdeep City wanted to take action against Aglaia City, he had no intention of participating. He even closed the door and refused to visit before some people found him.
Hill has known about his existence for a long time. Some of the actions of this learned mage who left Waterdeep City because he was humiliated and angry by Kelben's men are very divisive. He seems to be full of anger towards the Black Rod, but his behavior is disconnected.
The reason why many people in Waterdeep City came to Hill's inn was to buy medicine from him. There were even nobles in Neverwinter who offered free accommodation and shops to invite him, but he rejected them all.
Hill observed him for a long time, and finally understood one thing: as long as Kelben is willing to be gentle to him, Flumastir still wants to follow the Chosen of Mystra.
For him, the most important thing is his research work on blessing magic, but only Mystra can help him with these.
And no matter who it is, Mystra will not like a wretched mage who refines special potions.
His only hope is Kelben. After all... the seven Alustriel sisters don't have any good impressions of him either.
It's just that in order to delay the undead's desire to attack, Kelben sent a self-righteous clown to come forward, so Flumastir had to leave Waterdeep City for his own face.
If he really wanted to defect to other cities, this learned master who was good at certain potions could become a guest of many nobles, but he had always stayed in the inn in Aglaia City.
With his style of doing things, it is impossible for the city of Aglaia, which favors the good camp, to accept him.
So he was just waiting for a chance to return, and Kelben had to take the initiative to invite him back.
Of course, the reason why Kelben took the initiative could be that he sent it secretly, as long as no one knew about it.
Although Hill found this inexplicable self-esteem difficult to understand, he was willing to give this learned mage a chance.
No matter how Kelben feels about the portrait of his predecessor Mystra, as a chosen one given her gift, he must bow his head for this fragment of oil painting.
Moreover, even if his predecessor was so powerful and would fall, no one can be sure that the current midnight resurrection journey will be a smooth success.
A smart person will leave some room for himself and be loyal to both goddesses of magic, so that he will not be rejected by the new goddess of magic, or at most no longer take him seriously.
Think about the current God of Mage! Why is it so miserable? Isn’t it because he still doesn’t respect Midnight as his main god?
Which slave god would want to teach his master god how to do things.
The assistant ministers of human kings rarely have good results! Let alone the gods.
Kelben has always been very smart.
What Hill needs is this kind of intelligence.
As long as these fragments appear near that cute little lady, Kelben, who has never understood what it means to be sincere, will know what it means to cause trouble for himself.
Midnight's stubborn character that even AO cannot solve, once a negative impression is formed, unless she dies again, Kelben's plan will only be a joke.
If Kelben was really willing to put his twin sons above himself, he would never have chosen to be resurrected so early. Why would he have to wait until the twins' epic story came true before appearing again.
Therefore, Hill never believed that Kelben would raise her and his two children together after discovering the abnormality in Midnight. He would only use every opportunity to keep this lovely girl firmly in his hands.
.
If these dark methods were used only to deal with an innocent girl, it is entirely possible that she would not be able to spot them.
Even if the memory of an adult will be restored in the future, people will always beautify the beautiful memories in their hearts more and more.
However, if 'Midnight' grew up under the guidance of the experienced Mystra, then she might not think much about Kelben's behavior.
Just thinking of this made Hill feel better.
No matter what Kelben chooses, as long as he has selfish motives, he will inevitably be unlucky.
Hill happily started his blacksmithing life: he wanted to make alloy wire based on mithril.
Although many magics cannot be used, the alchemy workshop can still be operated. The work that previously required Hill to use the hands of a mage now has to be done by himself.

Hill found it quite interesting. He knocked on the iron plate so rhythmically that he almost forgot that he had hit the hammer before!
When Lynn came with his messenger, what he saw was Hill wearing a sleeveless shirt and swinging a hammer vigorously.
He stood outside the laboratory door in a daze, almost thinking that he was in front of a blacksmith's foundry: "Hill? You seem to be very skilled in using the hammer?"
"I have learned alchemy since I was a child." Hill put down the hammer, wiped his sweat, put on his robe and walked out, "Our family has a very powerful master of alchemy, so we, the younger generation, are not only responsible for potions and You need to learn how to make jewelry and rare items, as well as weapons and equipment, even magic ships and magic castles.
Even those who only like drug alchemy still need to learn how to use a hammer, and at worst, they need to be able to complete the most basic construction work by themselves."
Linn couldn't understand how much he needed to learn: Toril's various subjects were divided into finer details, and even medicine manufacturing had to be divided into different categories.
Hill smiled. He had always felt that Trasil's combat effectiveness was much worse than Toril's.
But later I discovered that according to Toril's level calculation method, his grandfather could almost reach level 40.
Then the higher-ups of the Mage Association are not much different.
It's just that they didn't get the opportunity to learn real magic knowledge, so they could only rely on themselves to slowly explore.
The incomplete laws of the world prevent many people from finding their own way.
But now that the world is complete, and with the space gate, the high-level mages of Trasil can learn the magic knowledge of other worlds, and their growth rate must be very fast.
Tracier's background is not bad.
What is really bad is the power at the god level... Fortunately, under the protection of the World Tree, Trasil can develop slowly.
Lynn handed Hill a thick stack of paper: "I've written it all down."
Hill raised his eyebrows and took it with a smile: "I thought you would tell me yourself."
Linn glanced at Hill: "What did you ask Terry to do? Some guests came from Waterdeep City, and I recognize the leader. He should be Kelburn's nephew Danilo Sarn.
Since he came yesterday, he has been trying to talk to Terry. Fortunately, Tustin was here, otherwise all the information about Terry would have been tricked by him.
I need to know, what is the message you want Terry to convey?"
Hill clapped the paper in his hand and said, "The purpose of asking Terry to sell strange objects related to the goddess of magic to the people in Waterdeep City is to make Kelben, who has been so proud of himself recently, uncomfortable."
He showed a gentle smile to Lin En: "Whether it is openly or privately, there is only this purpose. It depends on which path Kelben chooses."
Lin En laughed: "Then Terry is in a good state now. It seems that you have already recovered. I don't need to pay attention to this mage Danilo Sann?"
"What he said... don't worry about it.
Speaking of which, if there is anyone on Kelben's side who can be considered a normal person, he is probably the only one." Hill said with a bit of regret, "Unfortunately, the entanglement between him and Kelben is too deep and they can't leave at all.
I hope you won’t have bad luck with Kelben in the future.
Wait...Danilo Sarn seems to have a good relationship with the people from Alustriel?"
Hill laughed: "Oh my god... I hope he can keep his kindness. In that case, the epic story may have a male protagonist."
That would be great!
It is entirely possible that the nephew who has been deprived of the right to inherit the Black Staff Tower will leave the relatives who have restrained him for too long in order to protect a poor and respectable mage lady, and finally embark on the path of adventure!
Lin En looked at the daydream-looking Hill and shook his head. Before he sat down to read the information, he reminded him: "You have to pay attention to your own speed, Hill. Don't let yourself get involved."
"After this incident is over, I will not care about it. Some things should not be in my hands in the first place. Unfortunately, I am very lucky and always get some troublesome things." Hill explained a little helplessly.
Lin En didn't want to pay attention to him, turned around and left.
