Count of Wizards

"Master Connor, I haven't finished yet!" Looking at Connor who had already put the ring and handkerchief in his pocket, the old butler Martinez said with some embarrassment:

"Uh... sorry, sorry."

Connor took the ring out of his pocket helplessly. He knew what the old butler Martinez had left to say. He just wanted to talk about what it was and how to open this ruby ​​space ring. For Connor, who is a senior wizard apprentice and alchemist, as long as the ruby ​​space ring is not completely damaged and can be opened, then Connor does not need any methods. With Connor's own alchemy knowledge and powerful The mental power of this space ring can destroy the restriction of this space ring in a few seconds.

Just as Connor thought, as expected, seeing Connor take out the ruby ​​space ring again, the old butler Martinez pointed to the ring and said very mysteriously: "Master Connor, the next thing I want to tell you is The real secret of the Ferguson family. There has never been any written record about this secret in the family. This secret has been passed down orally by the heads of the family. The reason why I know it is because your father is not in good health, and I am afraid that he will not be able to hold on. When you come back, let me tell you, that's why I told you."

"Oh? What is this secret?" Although the existence of this ruby ​​space ring made Connor a little disappointed, the mysterious tone of the old butler Martinez still aroused some of Connor's curiosity.

"Master Connor, the seventh-generation ancestor of the Ferguson family, Stipe Ferguson, was once a wizard!" Butler Martinez approached Connor and said in a low voice. The old butler lowered his voice very low. , but his old face was full of pride, and his whole person showed a proud look.

"So that's what happened..." Hearing the name "Steep Ferguson" from Martinez's old butler, Connor, who had already fought against Celta, , Immediately realized what the old butler was going to say.

Thinking of what Lindelof, the senior wizard apprentice of the Celta Church, had said to him, Connor seemed to have thought of something, and focused on the dim ruby ​​space ring in his hand.

At the same time, the proud old butler continued to whisper: "Ancestor Stipe, when he was young, before inheriting the family, it is said that he joined a wizarding organization called Celta Cult, and was in that wizarding organization. Among them, he became a wizard, and the ring you are holding now, Master Connor, was left by your Stipe ancestor at that time. It is said that this is a space ring that contains space. It contains the legacy of being a wizard left by Stipe's ancestors..." Speaking of this, the proud old housekeeper suddenly changed his voice with regret, and said helplessly:

"If you want to open this space ring, you need spiritual power, but it is said that spiritual power is something that only wizards can possess..."

Hearing this, Connor couldn't help laughing. The Stipe ancestor of the Ferguson family has a very clear brain circuit. The space ring hides the inheritance of becoming a wizard. However, if you want to open the space ring, you need to become a wizard and have spiritual power! This is an out-and-out false proposition!

In order not to make the old butler suspicious, Connor pretended to be very excited to observe the ruby ​​space ring for a while, and then continued to ask the old butler, "Aside from this ruby ​​ring, Stipe's ancestors didn't leave anything else behind." ?"

The old butler shook his head, and said with some regret: "Hundreds of years have passed since the ancestor of Stipe, the time is too far away, the old man may have left some other things besides this ring, but the family This is all that's left now!"

After telling Connor the secret, the old housekeeper Martinez told Connor with some worries: "Master Connor, you must keep this secret secret and don't tell anyone. When you inherit the family in the future, there will be After having a son, pass it on to your son, with this ancestral inheritance, our Ferguson family will definitely reappear a wizard in the future, and revive the family!"

When he said this, the old butler's tone was very firm, and there was a firm light in his eyes. Obviously, he firmly believed that the Ferguson family is just a short-term trough. Sooner or later, the Ferguson family will become brilliant again. great!

Glancing at Connor, Butler Martinez showed a look of worry, and he urged Connor: "Master Connor, your place is no better than our hometown Frosinone, this is the site of the Church of the Storm in Ruenshi , you must be careful! They have always been very cruel to the existence of wizards, and even things related to wizards would rather kill by mistake than let them go!"

Feeling the solemnity in the old butler's words, Connor nodded slightly with a smile, and comforted the old butler, saying, "Don't worry, I'm not in Ruen for a day or two. What kind of virtue is the Church of the Storm? You know better, I will take care of myself!"

Connor also understands how Old Ferguson told Butler Martinez this secret that only the head of the family passed on orally. First of all, Old Butler Martinez has served for decades and is extremely loyal and reliable to the Ferguson family. Trustworthy, in addition, Connor Ferguson hated old Ferguson because of his mother, and the relationship with old Ferguson was very bad. The two basically did not speak for a long time. Old Ferguson knew his son's thoughts very well, so he planned to borrow the old housekeeper to pass the secret to Connor Ferguson.

"Old butler, Father didn't say why you asked you to give this thing to me now?" Putting the ruby ​​ring back into his pocket, Connor thought about the whole process, and asked Martin with some doubts. Butler Si continued to ask. After all, if there is nothing to do, it seems unnecessary for the old Ferguson, who is in good health, to ask Butler Martinez to give things to him now.

Hearing Connor ask this question, the old housekeeper Martinez said to Connor with a solemn expression and hesitation: "Some unidentified people appeared in Frosinone City recently, and the master doubts the identity of these people, so Just in case, he asked me to pass this on to you, young master!"
