Adhering to the basic principle of being curious about all dangerous things, Mogan's parents are not the type to teach their children "not to talk to strangers." But striking up a conversation with a stranger is generally not classified as a "good thing" in Mogan's mind.
Mo Gan looked at this middle-aged man who suddenly appeared and named him directly without changing his expression.
This is a new face, but it’s not certain that he’s not an acquaintance.
Because there are countless mages on the mainland who can cast disguise magic, and those who are good at this can even make their appearance flawless, and no one can see the clues. And among the people who can recognize his identity... there are many such guys.
Even if you can't cast it yourself, as long as you have enough money, you can use a magic scroll.
"The son of a knight", the person who can tell him this name is not just as simple as knowing his life experience.
Although Cecilia is a famous demon dragon under the royal family, her official title is still a royal knight, and she is also a justifiable captain of the personal guard like her father. But in the eyes of most palace nobles, "Son of the Dragon" or "Son of the Brave" are much more rare and respected than "Son of the Knight", and should be more appropriate.
As for the plain and simple "son of a knight", the first person to call him this title was the most noble queen of the Kingdom of Cole.
Rather than treating the dragon Cecilia as a guest, and meeting other people for whom she would always respect her with utmost respect and fear, Her Majesty Queen Christine was ingenious and treated her friend exactly the same as other knights when doing business.
Cecilia also said that what initially impressed her was not Princess Christine’s identity, but her perspective on things.
In the eyes of the young princess, she wanted to run away from home and have a fight with her elder brother, so Cecilia, who was drained of magic, had fierce eyes, and was covered in burnt and mud, was not intimidating. Getting lost because the paths in the royal garden extend in all directions, viciously bypassing the garden lawns carefully cultivated by gardeners, but the most important thing is to subconsciously dodge sideways to save the painstaking efforts of strangers.
"You are the son of a knight, but you do not have to be a Knight of Cole. Cecilia was regarded as an evil dragon in the past, but we all know her kindness. Origin does not mean everything, and temperament cannot completely determine the future. , just like a farmer's child may become a farmer, or he may become a devil king - there is no 100% result in the world. Mo Gan, you can create your own future."
In addition to their family of three and the queen, there were also many high-level princes and nobles present, some archmages who were highly regarded by the royal family, and many knight guards. Her Majesty the Queen has never been secretive and treats everyone equally when they should be treated equally.
This was the teaching that Mogan received when he accompanied his parents on a royal hunt. It was also the first time he heard the most ordinary and simple pronouns derived from his parents' identity other than "Son of the Brave" and "Son of the Dragon", but it came from Cole. The most respected person in the kingdom.
To be honest, Mogan very much agrees with Her Majesty the Queen's way of doing things.
"If you have seen me on the royal hunt, you can greet me with my original appearance." Mogan looked calm and calm, "If there is any need, or you are a friend of the Queen, in the name of Knight Cole, I will also I won’t hesitate to help.”
"There's no need to test me like this... Her Majesty the Queen won't like what you say." The middle-aged man suddenly laughed.
Then it was confirmed that the call was not a coincidence or the result of a message. This person was indeed real. He had personally heard the temporary instruction that was only valid for him, and he could understand the meaning contained in it.
In this way, the options are condensed to princes, nobles, high-level mages, and knight guards.
But Mo Gan was not careful enough to write down everyone's faces and figures whenever he went out. He was also unable to use this clue to identify the identity of the person in front of him, so he had to ask questions directly.
"What's going on?"
If you poke him out of nowhere, it won't be without reason.
"As a guest in a foreign land, you will naturally strike up a conversation when you see a familiar face. It's that simple, do you need any other reasons?"
After hearing this, Mo Gan was speechless for a moment, but the other party changed the subject.
"Should we talk about my relationship with the Queen? We are just casual acquaintances." The middle-aged man touched his chin, "But I admire her very much - sitting in such a high position, she is obviously extremely talented and surrounded by people A strong person can regard the temptation of magic as nothing."
"The Cole royal family is like this." Mogan responded in a deep voice.
He didn't want to reveal any flaws.
In fact, Queen Christine is not a mage, nor is she an alien, and her physique is only that of an ordinary person.
She is fifty-eight years old, enjoys the same lifespan as ordinary people, and has spent the most youthful and beautiful period of her life. Even though her temples are inevitably gray, this dignified and luxurious woman and her lifelong best friend stand together, and they look like they belong to two generations.
Compared with the tradition of passing the throne in the Kingdom of Denton, the Kingdom of Cole has the same family inheriting the throne for generations, but there is one primary rule and requirement - the leader of the kingdom cannot become a mage, cannot learn spells, and is not allowed to use magic. Extend life.
This request may seem absurd, but it is reasonable.
Just because magic also comes with a price - a price that most people cannot bear.
From the moment a mage recites his first incantation, his descendants, one of the children of a certain generation, will have their fate take a turn for the worse at the age of twenty, due to the incurable "Carl Yeager's disease" in a He died of exhaustion within a month.
It may be children, it may be grandchildren, or it may be later... There is no rule in the selection, and illness and death are the only characteristics.
The smug young cavalry suddenly fell into coma while looking up at the stars with his childhood sweetheart, and he became haggard and unable to sleep for a long time; the energetic new dancer fell into the last dance at a party celebrating her birthday, and when she woke up she could not stand or even sleep. Sit up.
Death is long and painful, and the common experience is the despair of feeling the process of the body's strength being withdrawn bit by bit.
I don’t know whether this situation is a ridiculous gift or a vicious joke. It gives people who are destined to die a chance to say goodbye to their loved ones and friends, but it also prolongs the pain that will eventually disappear. In the ever-stretched sensory dimension seems far away.
These are just the experiences that Mogan has heard from people who have experienced them over the past few years.
Contrary to a series of magic represented by "blood magic", this phenomenon is called "blood curse" among mages.
Mages who are not interested in continuing the family line are another matter. Naturally, there are also people who don't care about the pain that future generations may experience, or who are lucky that the curse will not appear on their loved ones within a few generations.
But there is another situation besides these three situations.
There is no way to remove the curse of blood, and the principle is unknown, but since it is well known that the curse originated from the moment the curse was uttered for the first time, it is natural that some people will think of tricks.
For example, learn the mantra first and then practice it after the child who has given birth reaches the age of twenty. After long-term testing, this method is indeed feasible for unknown reasons. It is even different from learning magic after the child is born, and will not be passed on to the next generation.
Just to reach a truly powerful mage level, starting to learn magic at this age is only half the result with twice the result. Not to mention the effect of extending life, even the basic and non-basic movement of objects with magic is extremely difficult.
But for most people, this is enough to meet their basic needs, and it has also created many older mages.
But this is still a situation prohibited by the royal family of the Kingdom of Cole - because learning spells in this period is almost impossible to be beneficial, but spending time learning magic may reduce the efficiency of managing the country, and even set a bad example.
After all, it is also a big problem on the social level that the elderly who do not care about the cost neglect work due to their addiction to magic.
"That's the case for all? That's not necessarily true...but that being said, I do have something to ask for."
Sure enough, it was still within expectations.
Mo Gan just stared at the middle-aged man and took out something from his arms, his eyes suddenly became strange.
That's a gold coin.
"They all said that Morgan Grande, the son of the brave and the evil dragon, has an eccentric nature. He doesn't like fighting, but he has a soft spot for gold and silver treasures and the history of the kingdom and the continent. Who knows about the mermaid and shark races? How much inside story can you tell?"
