Jon fell asleep by Moro's spell, and Angel didn't wake him up again, so he simply asked the dumb servant to send the tutor back to the house.
Then, everyone returned to the previous castle.
Leon instructed his servants to gather all those under the age of fifty in the hall, and let Moro conduct a talent test for everyone.
Angel originally wanted to take the test first, but Leon stopped him and whispered in his ear: "Let the next person test first, you can come again."
Leon did not explain the reason, but Angel knew it.
Moruo said just now that there is no one in the world with talent. If he tests directly and finds that he has no talent, he will naturally lose face. If there is a servant to test first, and then he will come back, so that even if there is no talent, it will not appear too protruding. Of course, the premise is that there is really no talent among the servants.
Soon, nearly a hundred servants under the age of fifty in the manor lined up at the entrance of the castle.
Although many were woken up in the middle of the night, no one dared to complain, and they all stood upright tremblingly.
"Everyone has come, let's start the test." Moro said, "Come one by one."
The place where the talent was tested was a small storage room. Leon had his servants remove all the things in the storage room beforehand, leaving only a part of the things that Moro had arranged for him.
Moro sat in the main seat, Angel, Leon, Eaton, and the Allen brothers and sisters all sat on both sides of him. The opposite side of Moro is empty, which is reserved for the test subject.
In the lamp on the table, a deep-sea oil candle is lit. The soft and bright light diffused from the lamp, illuminating the narrow storage room very brightly.
I saw that Moro took out a red crystal ball from his large robe and placed it on the table.
This red crystal ball is nothing special. Compared to the transparent crystal ball floating beside Moro, it looked much bleaker.
"This is the Eye of Abilus, also known as the Talent Ball. It is made from the eyeballs of the strange giant beast Abilus on the abyss plane." Moro explained: "Although Abilus is not tyrannical. Its power, but its soul is very powerful. The talent ball made of its eyeballs can return to the soul and reflect a person's talent."
The first one who came in for the test was Ollie, the maid who served Angel's daily life.
Ollie is one year older than Ingres, and she turns 15 today. Usually the two get along very harmoniously, not like masters and servants, but like friends. So when Ollie came in, although her face looked very serious, she secretly winked at Angel when everyone was not paying attention.
Angel simply explained the content of this test. Ollie's eyes lit up after hearing this.
As long as you have talent, can you become a legendary wizard? ! Ollie's heart was beating thumping, and she could hear the sound herself.
This is an opportunity, an opportunity to change destiny. Ollie immediately realized this, and her originally relaxed state of mind also instantly tightened. He bowed to Mora very respectfully, then restrained his excitement and sat opposite Mora.
Moro pointed to the red talent ball, "The test is very simple. After a while, you touch the crystal ball with your hand. Then don't let go of your hand, and observe everything around you to see if there is any change. If there is a change, it means you talented."
Variety? Ollie didn't understand for a while, and neither did other people, so Moruo explained: "This change is based on the individual differences of talents, so there will be different situations."
"For example. When I touched the talent ball, I found that the flame burning in the fireplace not far from me suddenly changed from a small flame to a raging fire. This kind of outsider can't see, only I am the only one. The changes that people find are the performance of talent." After Moruo explained, he thought about it and said: "The talent ball can't test the strength of a person's talent, but it is said that the 'change' can gain insight into the future path. Guidance. Of course, there is no basis for this statement. I personally don’t believe it, after all, I practice fire spells, and it’s not necessarily faster than water spells.”
"My granddaughter Irene, after touching the talent ball, found all kinds of cluttered sounds in her ears. This is a change." Moro pointed to the chubby Allen: "When Allen was testing his talent, It's also a change to see a piece of brown bread on the plate out of thin air."
"If, within one minute of touching the talent ball, there is no change in the surroundings. Then unfortunately, it means that you basically have no talent." Moro shrugged.
After Moro finished speaking, he stopped talking and pushed the talent ball to Oli's side.
Ollie swallowed deeply, stretched out her hand tremblingly, and placed it on the talent ball...
The small hourglass on the table walked in a circle (1 minute), Oli shook his head at Moro with disappointment on his face, and then took the initiative to back out.
Moro was expressionless: "Next."
As time passed, dozens of people tested one by one, but unfortunately, no one had the talent.
At this time, a young man with a loyal appearance, after touching the talent ball, a light flashed in his eyes.
"I felt a breeze blowing in front of me just now, and I felt like I was in the ocean of wind." The young man made the gesture of hugging the sky, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
"Is there... there is a change? The talent has appeared?!" Earl Eaton called out in surprise. He did not expect that there were no talented people in the imperial capital, and there was still a talented person in this countryside
Leon's expression also became excited, and he happily asked the head maid Mana about the identity of the young man.
The head maid Mana looked at the young man with a loyal appearance, but the corners of his mouth twitched coldly. This person has a particularly bad reputation in the manor. I didn't expect such a person to have talent! Mana secretly scolded the goddess of luck for being too partial, and whispered back: "He is the son of the gardener Glenn, named Fox."
Fox? Leon has never heard of it, but it's not a big deal. There are a lot of servants in the manor, and it's normal that they don't know each other.
Leon happily said to Mana: "Wait, you will take out a hundred gold coins from the warehouse and give them to..."
"Hold on."
Suddenly, Moro's low voice resounded through the room.
Fox originally heard Leon's reward, and his eyes were full of pride; but when he heard Moro's voice, he immediately wilted, and his forehead was covered with large and small beads of sweat.
"The ocean of wind? Hehe... When I was in the imperial capital, no one dared to deceive me; I didn't expect that someone here would dare to make up stories in front of my face. Do you really think that the white wizard has no temper?"
After speaking, Moro snorted coldly, and a violent storm surrounded Fox.
"Since you want to be in the ocean of wind, then I will do it for you. Try this wind babble!"
After a scream, Fox was blown out of the window by the whirlwind and fell from the high third floor to the ground, screaming and screaming incessantly.
Leon's face turned pale: "Mr. Morrow, what's going on? Is Fox lying?"
Moro sneered: "Although the 'change' can only be seen by the parties involved, and outsiders cannot know it; however, once there is a 'change', the talent ball will flash, reminding me that the talent has appeared."
After Moro's words, everyone naturally knew the cause and effect.
They have been watching from the side, the talent ball has not flashed from beginning to end, obviously Fox is lying just now.
After listening to Leon, there was a trace of forbearance on his face, and he said to the maid of Mana: "From tomorrow, I don't want to see Fox in Gru Town again."
Mana Fuli, with a low response, went out the door.
The follow-up of Fox, everyone no longer pays attention. Moro straightened his robes, put away his impatience, and continued to start the test...
The two hourglass hours passed, and all the servants were tested, including the head maid Mana and the guarding knights, none of them had talent.
At this moment, Moro turned his gaze to Angel.
Angel knew that it was time for him to go.
…
"I'll go first, I'm also very interested in wizards. I just heard from Mr. Moro that wizards have a long lifespan and immortality, which is what I desire." Leon blocked Angel and sat in front of Moro: "If I live longer, the more scenery I can see. I want to see all the beauty of this world."
When Angel saw his brother come forward, he didn't step back, but sat beside Leon.
"You go first." Angel gave Leon a clenched fist gesture, which was the way they both cheered each other up when they were children.
Leon smiled and rubbed Angel's soft hair, then smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to the talent ball.
The white sand of time in the hourglass slowly fell. Leon slowly roamed the room with his eyes, trying to find out where the 'change' was.
A minute passed, Lyon's eyes were filled with disappointment, and then he let go of his hand on the talent ball.
"It seems... I have no talent anymore." Leon regretted that in this minute, he did not notice any changes. Sure enough, as Moro said, talented people are too rare.
"It's up to you." Leon patted Angel's shoulder.
Angel nodded, and slowly put his hand on the smooth surface of the talent ball.
