Chapter 269 Farcus
In the dimly lit hall, the sound of burning candles continued to sound all around.
There are people walking around from time to time, seeming to find their place.
After a while, when Andra came here, there were already several people sitting around.
Those were a few gorgeously dressed elves, who looked quite young. At this time, when they heard Andra's voice when they walked in, they couldn't help but look at him.
"It seems that everyone has received the news."
Looking at the elves sitting around, Andra nodded, and then said, "Does anyone know the specific situation?"
As his voice fell, there was a moment of silence on the spot, until after a while, no one spoke up.
"The news came from the border of the Kroll family, and the one who passed the news was a core member of our family."
A middle-aged elf wearing a black robe spoke, and he was also a little puzzled at this time: "The other party is holding the family emblem of our family, but he calls himself Adil Fakus, not a member of our family."
"According to the other party's claim, his family emblem comes from his mother."
At this time, another elf interjected: "That is to say, the mother of this official wizard should be a member of our family, but I don't know who it is."
"Falkus..."
At the forefront, listening to the words of the following two commanders, Andra also frowned: "I have never heard of this surname, I am afraid it is not a local family, but a wizard family from the outside world."
He raised his head and looked at the elves below: "Does anyone know about this surname?"
Listening to his words, the people below looked at each other in dismay, and finally shook their heads, feeling a little dazed about it.
It is no wonder that if it is really a local wizard family in the Maisen area, then with the history of their family, if you check carefully, you might be able to find some relevant records.
But the Fakus family is not in the Maisen area, and it is just a small family that has long since declined. It is on a barren continent and has no reputation in the wizarding world.
In this case, if they could know the news about the Fakus family, it would be a real hell.
"Falkus..."
But at this time, below, listening to this surname, one of them was constantly muttering to himself, listening to this surname, it seemed a little familiar.
This is a very beautiful female elf, with long black hair flowing down her body and fair skin, as if carved out of jade.
At this moment, she was sitting somewhere in the living room, listening to the surname "Fakus", she seemed to think of something, but she was a little uncertain.
"Lilith, what's wrong?"
Seemingly aware of her abnormality, Andra asked aloud, "Any clues?"
For a split second, the eyes around him focused on it, all of them were focused on Lilith, and there was still some expectation in his eyes.
"I just suddenly remembered something."
Being watched by the eyes of the people around, Lilith hesitated for a while, and then said, "Lord Andra, do you still remember the group of people who migrated ten years ago?"
"of course I remember."
Andra nodded, and then her eyes lit up, as if thinking of something.
"Among that group of people, there was a girl named Latina, who impressed me deeply because of her talent as a wizard."
Under Andra's gaze, Lilith spoke slowly.
"That said, I seem to have some impressions."
Someone on the side interrupted: "This junior is a rare half-elf, and his talent is very good. It is said that he was successfully promoted to the apprentice sacrifice two years ago. If it wasn't for the human blood in his body, he would even be qualified to be one of our successors. ."
Having said this, the man paused and asked uncertainly, "Could it be?"
"good."
Lilith nodded: "The girl's human surname happens to be Facus."
"I had contact with her,
I heard from her mother that she seems to have a younger brother..."
Sitting on the spot, she paused, and then said: "If this new official wizard's surname is really Fakus, then it is very likely that it is Latina's younger brother."
"According to this, isn't the age of this official wizard just in his early twenties?"
Sitting in another corner, a middle-aged elf frowned and said in disbelief, "You are promoted to a full-fledged wizard at such a young age?"
Different from the precocious human beings, the elves have a longer growth period because of their longer lifespans. This is especially true for these elf nobles who have the rare blood of moon elves in their bodies.
For elven nobles whose lifespans can generally reach two hundred years, they must be forty years old to be considered an adult, and their wizard qualifications can be considered to have grown to their peak.
Correspondingly, in the growth period, because the soul aptitude is still growing, the elves will be very slow to improve their spiritual power through meditation. Except for some geniuses, the general speed is not comparable to that of human apprentices of the same age.
This situation will not end until the elves become adults. But because of the long growth period, among the elves, even if they are apprentices with good talent, if everything goes well, they will not be promoted to full-fledged wizards until they reach adulthood.
At the age of early twenties, Adil was promoted to a formal wizard. In the human area, he was considered an absolute genius. In the elf family, it was even more shocking and unimaginable.
"It's not impossible."
In the front, Lilith also frowned a little, and then calmed down: "If this official wizard named Adil is really Latina's younger brother, then he must also be a half-elf."
"Although the lifespan of a half-elf is also quite long, it can't compare to us pure-blooded nobles, and the natural growth period will be relatively short."
"However, even for a half-elf, this speed is amazing."
Someone on the side spoke, and said with a sigh at this time: "Even if it is placed among those short-lived humans, it is an absolute genius, and the aptitude may be above the fourth level."
"Let's stop this question for now."
Sitting quietly above, listening to the discussion of the people below, Andra couldn't help but say: "Being able to be promoted to a formal wizard is naturally excellent. But the most important thing now is to prepare immediately."
"According to the information received, this wizard is now coming towards our family. Calculate the time, it may be in three or four days, and we must prepare for the reception as soon as possible."
Having said this, he turned to look at Lilith: "Lilith, you go to inform Latina and her clan to confirm this official wizard."
"Once confirmed, you should know what to do, right?"
"I understand." Lilith nodded, her expression clear.
"In addition, send someone to the city to publicize, saying that an official wizard from afar in our family's early years is about to return, and now he is here to meet and prepare."
Andra's face was serious, and she reminded: "Remember, the welcoming ceremony must be big, let all the families around you know the news!"
"But... the other party is not a wizard of our family. If you preach like this, will you..."
Listening to Andra's words, the people below looked at each other, and one of them seemed a little hesitant.
"Since the other party admits that there is blood of our family in the body, that is our wizard!"
Listening to the words below, Andra glared at the man: "And, no matter how bad the situation is, can it still be bad now?"
"Yes." Listening to this, the man below did not continue to speak, but nodded heavily.
In another courtyard, the sound of rushing water was constantly resounding.
This is a very old yard. Although it looks quite big, it has been a few years old. Many places inside look very dilapidated, as if no one has maintained it for a long time.
In the land in the yard, there are still a lot of weeds growing wantonly in it, making the surrounding look a bit desolate.
It was noon at this time, and in the courtyard, several elves were working inside.
They were dressed in coarse cloth, and at this time they were all wet with sweat because of their work, and they could not see the elegance and mystery of the elves at all.
There were men and women in this group of elves, and they didn't look young. At this time, there was a female elves who looked very mature. With a rough cloth in her hand, she walked straight to the side of the wooden chair and sat down directly.
It was a fairly beautiful looking female elf. She looked like a 30-year-old human being, but her skin was a little dark due to the wind and the sun.
"Curtis..."
At this time, other elves also slowly walked over, and at this time they came to the vicinity one after another. Among them, a slightly younger female elf spoke. Looking at the middle-aged female elf in front of her, she asked curiously, "Lord Lilith has been coming to see you a lot recently. Is there something wrong?"
"I am not sure."
Listening to the other party's culture, the female elf named Curtis shook her head gently: "Lord Lilith asked me about my previous experience, and then gave me some magic stones so that I don't have to continue to work."
"Speaking of which, Curtis, you too."
At this time, a fairly handsome young elf stepped aside and looked at Curtis: "Didn't your child have been promoted to the apprentice priest, why are you still here to take care of these materials and directly follow your daughter It's better to live together."
"Latina is not easy for her either."
Curtis shook his head: "Now it's getting more and more dangerous outside. I heard that several business routes of the family have been cut off recently, and the income within the family is getting lower and lower. The so-called apprentice sacrifice originally only had a few pieces of magic per month. Shi, there are fewer and fewer now."
"I'll obediently cultivate materials here, save a few more magic stones, and let her take a few more classes by herself."
She shook her head and said with a chuckle.
Listening to her words, the other elves in the surroundings fell into silence.
In fact, the reason why the few elves present stayed there was mostly the same reason.
Cultivating materials is not easy, not only requires a lot of knowledge, but also requires a lot of experience. Sometimes, if you are not careful, it may destroy a material.
Those who will come here to cultivate materials are actually not ordinary people.
However, even so, for some reason, they still chose to stay here, braving the scorching sun and sweating, just for the generous reward of a magic stone for half a year.
It was silent for a while, until a voice continued to sound.
"Speaking of which, when Lilith-sama looked for you before, what did you talk about?"
An elf smiled and said, "I won't really just talk about life and experiences."
"of course not."
Curtis also smiled: "Lord Lilith also asked me about another child..."
"You have another child?" Everyone present was a little surprised, and a desire to gossip suddenly rose in their hearts.
"It's Latina's younger brother."
I don't know what to think, Curtis suddenly became a little silent, and then said: "My other child, if he was named by that human back then, it should be called Adil."
"His talent is very good...even though he was just born, I can see that this child's talent is much stronger than Latina."
Sitting there, Curtis murmured: "Unfortunately... that man looked at him too closely, I had no choice but to leave with Latina not long after he was born..."
"Do not be sad···"
On the side, a female elf saw her appearance, patted her shoulder very understandingly, and then said with relief: "It is a lucky thing that you can bring your daughter to us alive."
"Also, maybe in the future your son will grow up and come to find you."
"I hope." Hearing this, Curtis also smiled, then lowered his head and said nothing.
At this time, outside the courtyard, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps.
