Chapter 367 Chapter 25 Ancestor


Chapter 367 25. Ancestor

A quaint remote manor stands quietly on the outskirts of the city.

There are many manors scattered across this vast plain. Here you can enjoy tranquility and appreciate the grandeur of the imperial capital at the same time.

When the carriage carrying the teachers and students of Saltz Academy of Magic stopped in front of the quaint manor, the servant hurried into the mansion and told the news to a woman with a ponytail and a men's shirt with strong lines.

"Solz Magic Academy? Defeat Syltovis Academy? Syltovis always brings us surprises..." The woman tilted her head and said to the tall guard standing aside: "You Follow the servant to confirm your identity, and I will tell the ancestors.”

The woman walked all the way to the garden to the north of the building and came to an old woman wrapped in a blanket and leaning on a lounge chair. She leaned into her ear and said loudly: "Ancestor, your two granddaughters are here to see you!"

The old woman's narrowed eyes opened a slit: "My what?"

"Your granddaughter!"

"Aren't you here?"

“It’s not me, it’s from the Waters family! The Waters of Sltovis!”

"The Waters family..." The old woman chewed repeatedly, remembering the past, and wrinkled smiles appeared at the corners of her eyes: "Take me there quickly."

In front of the manor, Annan and the others, whose identities were confirmed, were brought in Manor, came to the living room of the mansion.

Not long after they sat down, a capable-looking woman came in supporting the old woman. If she had short hair, she would be even more masculine than Olmedo - when Olmedo smiles, his eyebrows will lower and his cheeks will soften.

“Where is my little Manny?” the old woman who came in asked impatiently.

Everyone in the seats stood up one after another. Ai Xue no longer looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Ancestor, mother is still at home, we came with the competition team."

"What did you say?" the old woman asked, tilting her head.

"You are Germanie's daughter?"

"Yes."

Xiana was gently pushed by Annan at this time, and she could only say: "Alright." There is me."

The woman glanced at Xian Na, lowered her head and said loudly to the old woman: "My sister is not here, her two daughters are here!"

"Which one?"

Ai Xue and the timid Xina approached, and the old woman opened her cloudy eyes and looked hard: "It really looks like... I seem to see little Manny pestering me again. Eat the candy. "

Thinking that her mother still had this experience, Xian Na couldn't help but smile. The ancestor grabbed her hand and said that she was exactly the same as her mother, but Ai Xue next to her was left out in the cold.

Then they moved from the living room to the dining room, and the ancestor kept holding Xian Na's hand. Annan doesn’t have to worry anymore. The old lady prefers Xian Na to Ai Xue.

They came to the dining room. Unlike the long tables common in noble homes, there was a round table in front of the fireplace, very close to each other - so that the ancestors could hear everyone's voices.

They sat down in front of the round table. On the left of the ancestor was Ai Xue, on the right was Xina, then the woman, Vice President Boris and the students, while Annan, who was holding Lily, sat at the farthest.

“What happened to our ancestor’s ears?” Xian Na asked the woman bravely.

"Curse."

"Can't it be cured with magic?"

The woman said with a gloomy and tough face: "I asked the church for help, but they couldn't do anything. ”

"How could it be..." Xian Na exclaimed, "Is it after the turmoil?"

"Before the turmoil." To prevent Xian Na from continuing to ask questions, the woman said directly: "The ancestor is a legend. ”

The round table was quiet for a moment. Annan didn't feel any magic fluctuations from the old woman...but it might be that the difference was too big, just like the ants thought the dragon's claws were hills.

Some drinks and cakes were served, and the woman asked: "You came to the imperial capital for the competition?"

The invisible Vice President Boris stood up quickly: "Solz Magic Academy has become the one hundred and sixty strong in the empire. Come to the imperial capital to participate in the next competition."

Then he introduced the students to the ancestors and the woman. What makes the woman regretful is that neither Ai Xue nor Xian Na is a contestant. Finally, Vice President Boris introduced Annan:

"If Solz Magic Academy can become the champion, the warlock champion must be Annan Reeves."

"Dark eyes , black hair... surnamed Reeves..." The woman looked at Annan strangely: "What is the relationship between the Reeves family of the Twelve Kings of the North and you?"

"I am the current Twelve of the North. One of the kings, but it’s over..."

The northern territory they guarded is gone.

The ancestor looked at Annan, patted Xianna's hand, and smiled kindly: "Your classmate is so cute."

Annan remained silent, and Legend took whatever he said.

The ancestor thought of something: "You don't have a place to live yet, right? Just live here these days."

"Is this good?" The woman hesitated, "My cousin hopes that you Rest quietly here..."

The ancestor hummed: "Young boy kicked me out of the imperial capital and didn't come to see me. The manor is not lively at all."

"But they still have to participate in the competition, and it is not convenient to live in the suburbs..." The woman looked at the deputy dean.

Thinking of the name of the emperor of the Tatun Empire, Vice Dean Boris said timidly: "As long as the ancestors like us, we will live here."

This time the ancestors heard it. , smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.

During the next meal time, the ancestor asked Xian Na and Ai Xue back and forth, asking Xian Na more, and her mood gradually became brighter, as if she had made up for the neglect she received at home.

After dozens of minutes, the woman wiped the sweat from her ancestor's face with a handkerchief and helped her to rest. After the owner left, everyone except Annan and Lily, who didn't eat much, started eating.

Not long after, the woman came back again, this time to find Annan: "My ancestors like your cat very much..."

"Don't leave the cat." Lying down in Annan Lily on her lap raised her head and said.

"It doesn't want to." Annan answered the woman.

“I’m asking you what you think.”

"Its idea is my idea."

The woman who is used to being strong frowned: "Do you know who you are rejecting?"

The teachers and students in front of the round table were silent, at this time Ai Xue stood up: "Annan, Aunt Olin Montreal is helping you. Our ancestors like it."

Annan ignored Ai Xue and looked directly at the woman: "I know, Olin Montreal."

Olin Montreal thought that they were guests and had brought two nieces with them, so her attitude became more relaxed: "Then it's okay to let the ancestors touch it, right?"

Annan showed a troubled expression, which made Olin Montreal take a deep breath, but she couldn't get angry at a student: "Are we going to take your cat away again?"

"Okay." Annan picked up Lily, She whispered to it: "If they want to catch you, run back."

Olin Montreal could only pretend not to hear, picked up Lily, and left with her in her arms.

Looking at her back, Annan was thoughtful. Does the ancestor think there is something wrong with Lily's identity, or does he simply like Lily?
