Views:

Just as Claude expected, the diary written by Master Landers might as well have been called a memoir at first. Because when Master Landers wrote this diary, he had been promoted to a third-level rune mage. He stood out among the more than a hundred low-level mage and magic apprentices in the magic tower that was later blown up by gunpowder, and finally had a magician located in A separate room on the ground floor serves as his dormitory. It was precisely because he had his own independent space that Master Landers used the rewards of several Sullivan gold coins he received to buy this notebook made of rune leather to write a diary.

Therefore, in the opening chapter of the diary, Master Landers took the trouble to describe his experiences during his childhood, his family situation, his parents' hard work, the friendship of his brothers and sisters, etc. The first dozen pages of the diary are filled with memories and nostalgia for the home that I have left. But Claude still noticed from these dozen pages of diary that Master Landers was proud of his success in being promoted to a third-level rune mage. It only took him four years to go from an illiterate fourteen-year-old boy to a third-level rune mage. A third-level rune mage, Master Landers believes that he has lived up to his parents' expectations and the magical talent he possesses.

Because Master Landes wrote the diary in ancient Hertzian language, Claude read it very slowly, and occasionally had to look up some unfamiliar words in the dictionary. However, judging from the dozen or so pages of memories written by Master Landers, Claude discovered that it seemed that the magician was not as evil as the legends on the continent of Farea.

Master Landers wrote that his home was in the village of White Deer, right on the picturesque shores of Lake Beringa. Well, Claude knows that this is the predecessor of White Deer Town. However, Master Landers also said that the entire southwest region, which is now the three southwest counties, including Bailu Village, is the owner of the Bailuzhou Magic Tower and the territory of the Seven Rings of Lornk. It's just that Master Lorne Ke was too focused on exploring the mysteries of magic and had no time to take care of these mundane matters, so he entrusted the management of the territory to three magic families.

There are eight people in Master Landers' family. In addition to his parents and himself, there are two brothers and two sisters. There is also one who doesn't like Master Landes very much, and Master Landes doesn't like her very much. The grandmother lives in their home and lives with their family.

Landers' father owned a fishing boat. He would get up early and take Master Landers' two brothers to fish on Lake Beringa every day in the dark. The family also has five acres of land and a vegetable garden, which are taken care of by the mother and a sister. In addition, the family also raises a cow and a draft horse. This was the responsibility of Master Landers. He had to cut a lot of grass every day. Feed these two big animals.

Master Landers' grandmother and sister have to do a lot of housework at home and feed a dozen chickens. The family is busy all day long, but half of the harvest every year must be handed over to the steward sent by the magic noble to collect taxes. The rest can only support the family of eight people, old and young, with food, clothing and clothing.

Seeing that Master Landers' two brothers and one sister were about to grow up and it was time to consider their life-long events, Master Landers' parents began to become anxious and worried, not knowing how to get a large amount of money. Let your children be able to start a family, start a business, and get married in a glorious manner. At this moment, the magic apprentice test every ten years began again.

The so-called magic apprentice test is a magic talent test conducted by the Seventh Ring Master of Lornk on children in the entire southwest territory. The children tested are between the ages of five and fifteen. Children who are tested and found to have magical talents will be taken to the magic tower to train as magic apprentices. Those under the age of twelve will be registered. When they are twelve years old, they will be tested again. Magic talents Those who have not changed are taken to the magic tower to become apprentices.

Claude was deeply puzzled that magic talent could change. However, the following diary entries soon made him feel excited, because Master Landers said that his hearing was very sharp, even if his grandma repeatedly complained in front of his parents, saying that he was lazy and playful again today and did not do well. He has heard all the bad things about taking care of the two big animals in the family, so even though his grandma treats him equally in front of his brothers and sisters, he still doesn't like her, and even feels a little disgusted with her.

Master Landers said that sometimes he went to herd the cows and horses, and the cows and horses grazed on the grass, and he also lay on the grass. But even if you close your eyes, the surrounding scene and the movements of the cows and horses will still appear clearly in your mind, as if you are witnessing it with your own eyes. Isn't this the same situation as mine
