Chapter 629: Stripping the City of Adela Angel and Bloodline
After the meeting, the magicians returned to their rooms, studying their invitations hard, hoping to get clues about the [Legacy], while Mikael took Gray in this stripped city.
I wandered around aimlessly.
There are angel elements everywhere in this city, whether it is chandeliers, walls, or ordinary decorations, even the handrails of the stairs and the floors under your feet are carved with angels.
Of course, excluding these excessive angel sculptures, the design of the entire Peeling City is still very artistic.
Greedy frowned slightly, her body felt like she was in water, feeling depressed, and for some reason, she particularly rejected those angel sculptures.
She is much better now. When she first came to Peeling City, she couldn't even breathe. She felt like she was falling into a bottomless muddy swamp.
In Mikael's words, Gray has extremely sensitive perception, which should be the worst talent in the world for a person who is afraid of spirits.
"Are you still feeling sick? Or is tonight's dinner unpalatable?"
Seemingly aware of Gray's strangeness, Mikael asked softly.
"No, no, it's just..."
Gray shook his head and then stopped talking.
"You just hate these angel sculptures?"
"……Well."
Mikael suddenly said exactly what Gray was thinking, which shocked her a little.
"No need to be surprised. Such things are already written on your face. It can be easily seen, and..."
Mikael glanced at the angel sculptures around him and said meaningfully.
"It makes sense that you hate these angel sculptures."
【(??﹃??)?】
Gray was slightly startled, obviously not knowing what Mikael was talking about.
"Hehehe, how could Gray know such a thing? She is so stupid!"
Yade's voice sounded at the right time, full of gloating.
"Actually, I think Gray is not stupid, but just a little too serious. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Mikael touched Gray's head. Gray felt a warm current flowing from the top of his head to every part of his body, and the previous uncomfortable feeling disappeared.
"By the way, Gray, do you know what angel means in magic?"
"have no idea."
Gray shook her head. She had just come into contact with the study of magic, and she had not learned a lot of basic knowledge.
"Angels didn't look like this at first. They were more like wheels with eyes or wings. In short, they are very different from their current appearance."
Gray thought for a while, trying to imagine in her mind the appearance of the angel that Teacher Mikael said.
But it's too abstract and I can't think of it.
"Most of today's angels are the result of evolution, but in the final analysis, angels are just [containers of power]. Today's magicians use the name of angels just to make it more convenient. Our celestial science magic has nothing to do with angels."
There is no connection, it is based on a unique foundation.”
"Well... it's a little too early to say this to you. Forget it, you can't rush the practice of magic. Gray, just lay a good foundation now."
"Um……"
Gray nodded slightly, that was indeed what she thought.
While chatting casually, he passed by a magician's room and looked at the defensive magic array arranged in front of the door. Mikael shook his head slightly.
"These people really work hard, but unfortunately sometimes hard work cannot solve all problems."
"Master, are you talking about [Inheritance]?"
Gray asked curiously. For her who likes detective novels, this inheritance inheritance is just like a scene in a novel.
"Actually, you can take a guess, who has a higher chance of receiving [inheritance]?"
Mikael withdrew his gaze, obviously not paying attention to those defensive magic arrays. For him, the strength of these magic arrays was not even as strong as paper, and it was easy to detect what happened inside.
But he didn't intend to do that, and it meant nothing to him to know what other magicians were doing.
“Who has a greater chance of getting [heritage]?”
Gray repeated what Mikael said, then bit his lower lip gently, trying hard to recall the list of people he had seen who participated in the [Inheritance] inheritance.
The list has a certain introduction to each magician, even down to the details of what style of clothes they like, what kind of taste they like, the type of magic engraving...etc.
If the existence of this list is leaked, these magicians will seriously protest. After all, this list contains too many personal secrets.
"It should be Mr. Cedric Ashbourne, right?"
After thinking for a while, Gray said weakly.
"Oh~~?"
Mikael looked at Gray with interest, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stopped.
"I'm actually interested in your reasoning. Can you briefly tell me, Gray, how you got this result?"
"Hmm...that Mr. Cedric, it is written in the record that he is the illegitimate son of the deceased Mr. Grevin, right? He was hidden all this time, and was not known to others until his death."
"I remember Master, you said that for magicians, successors are very important. Mr. Gulanid Ashborn cannot inherit Mr. Grevin's magic seal, so that Mr. Cedric should be
An heir whom Mr. Grevin later trained."
"Looking at it this way, it is natural for Mr. Cedric to inherit the [legacy] left by Mr. Grevin."
"Yeah, that's a great analysis."
After hearing Gray's answer, Mikael nodded with satisfaction and praised him with appreciation.
Gray's face turned red subconsciously when she heard Mikael's compliment. She just lowered her head and stared at her toes. There was a feeling of heat on her face, as if her whole body was about to burn.
"Before Qing Gryven passed away, he did mention the issue of his successor, and Cedric was indeed his chosen successor. This child is an illegitimate child he secretly cultivated outside."
"The reason why no one knows about this is very simple. Qing Greven loves his wife and his children very much. It's just because Gulanid didn't inherit the family's talent for magic engraving. His wife
He has always blamed himself and been depressed all day long, and Gulanid himself has become very unconfident."
"The reason for not telling his wife is to prevent his wife from being more sad and to prevent his children from experiencing greater pressure."
"But doesn't Mr. Grevin love his wife very much? Why did he do this? Didn't Master say that the successor of a magician does not necessarily have to be related by blood?"
Gray looked at Mikael in confusion, and she didn't quite understand the thoughts of the deceased Mr. Grevin.
"Because although he loves his wife and children, he still loves that one more than []."
