Chapter 290: The Bondage of Bloodline
A few minutes before Anya was attacked, the mage's home was in the center of the village.
On a tea table, Ganon and the Master sat opposite each other.
Ganon still looked like a half-orc, and the mage sitting opposite was wearing a turban and covering his face.
The mage didn't wait as long as Ganon. Within ten minutes, she noticed the visitors outside the house. She ended the lesson early and asked the apprentice to invite Ganon in.
Seeing the scroll brought by Ganon, the mage seemed very happy and expressed his willingness to pay a high price to buy it.
But when Ganon asked the other party to teach him spells, the other party seemed a little embarrassed.
"This is the first time someone has taken the initiative to approach me as an apprentice, but unfortunately, I have no plans to accept new apprentices yet. The children I accept are basically desperate, and I am doing some good deeds by helping them. As for you , with all due respect, you seem to have the ability to be independent." The mage reached out to pour tea for Ganouen, his tone was quite calm.
"Can't you really be a little more accommodating? I really want to become more sophisticated on the path of a mage." Ganon pretended to be pleading.
"You seem to have the blood of an orc, why did you choose to become a mage?" the mage asked.
"Yes, as you can see, I am a half-orc. Do you also think that the blood of the orc will affect my talent as a mage?" Ganon sighed and looked troubled.
"This is exactly the case. Orcs and giants are both dependent races that have a connection with the God of War. Although they are not as good as the giants, they have also received a little favor. The Lord God's blessings are always stingy. Being blessed by a Lord God is very important. It is difficult to get recognition from other gods.
It can be said that apart from becoming warriors, it is difficult for orcs to develop other god-given professions. But in contrast, their naturally powerful bodies give them the natural qualifications to become warriors. You should use them properly. Your bloodline." The mage suggested.
"I come from the Federation of Elements, a land that originally belonged to the orcs and barbarians, called Flowing Wind Island." Ganon said this setting while observing the mage's reaction.
The mage's eyes froze: "Liufeng Island?"
"Do you know that place?" Ganon asked.
"Yes." The mage simply responded.
"The Federation of Elements is a federation of mages, and mages are respected. When I first tried this path, I was about to give up. But then, I heard about a great mage with an orc surname in the federation, called... ..." Ganon paused, "Amanda Ax Hill."
"..." The mage fell into silence on the spot.
"I made a special trip back to my hometown to find out that this archmage actually has orcish blood, which gave me the courage to pursue my dream. I also wanted to visit her, but unfortunately, she left the Federation of Elements long ago." Ganon said .
"How much do you know about her situation?" The mage suddenly looked into Ganon's eyes and asked.
"I only heard that she might have gone to the west, preparing to explore the ruins." Ganon replied, "After I was expelled from the Academy of Magic, I also chose to become an explorer and hang out here, but I haven't given up yet." "Since
you Knowing so much, you should...have guessed it?" The mage simply revealed his cards this time.
"Could it be that you really are?" Ganon immediately stretched his neck.
"Yes, I am Amanda, Amanda from Liufeng Island." The mage admitted simply.
"I actually met you. This must be the guidance of fate." Ganon said with emotion.
He used a compiled identity script to introduce the topic. Amanda actually admitted her identity so quickly. It was so smooth that it was somewhat beyond his expectation. Further probing questions flashed through his mind, and he confirmed that the other party was Amanda. He eagerly wanted to know the relationship between the other party, Dolan Sloni and Dragon Ascension Lair.
But Ganoun gave up after thinking about it. The other party didn't seem so wary now, but if he suddenly brought up this kind of information that his character shouldn't know, it would definitely arouse the other party's vigilance.
"I didn't expect that my experience could inspire people. But I don't think it's right for you to follow my footsteps and become a mage. I also wanted to become a powerful mage to prove myself, but unfortunately..." Amanda said He sighed.
"You have become an extraordinary mage, and your talent has not been seriously affected." Ganon said.
"But that doesn't make much sense." Amanda looked at Ganouen and said, "The bondage of blood is far stronger than you think, not only the talent of becoming a mage, but also the worldly prejudices." "I thought you were not a person
. A person who can easily accept his fate." Ganon spread his hands.
After hearing about Amanda's past experiences, Amanda left him with a rather inspiring image.
But after meeting and chatting for a few words, he found that the other person seemed somewhat negative about his mixed-race identity.
This reminded Ganon of Dolan Sloane, the half-dragon who also showed a negative attitude towards his bloodline.
At this moment, he actually saw the shadow of Dolan Sloane in Amanda in front of him.
Ganon was convinced that Amanda and Doranceloni had exchanged opinions on this matter, and Dorancelonian's attitude towards her bloodline might have been influenced by Amanda.
"This is not a matter of accepting fate or not. It is just a reality that we, mixed-races, cannot ignore since we were born." Amanda replied calmly, "Let's put it this way, you are half orc blood, and as a mage, you can't ignore it." The journey is not very involved. You are still young now, and it may be more suitable for you to choose to become a warrior again. Go back to your homeland, at least there your blood will not be discriminated against, and you will not be like me. I can't find my true destination."
"I think what you said makes sense. This is indeed a reality that is hard to ignore." Ganouen said, changing the topic, "I don't think it's worth affecting my own thoughts. The way to live."
Because he is a half-orc, he can only return to the homeland of the orcs and barbarians to live, which sounds a bit aggrieved.
He himself traveled through a world and became a dragon, an evil dragon in the eyes of the world. This identity gave him strength, but also brought him some constraints.
But he still lives according to his own ideas. He doesn't care what a dragon should look like in this world. These have nothing to do with him.
"Others may not necessarily think so." Amanda shook her head.
"If you don't have to, I don't think it's necessary to accommodate other people's stupidity. If someone makes irresponsible remarks, let him shut up." Ganouen replied.
"You are very young and very interesting." Amanda looked at Ganouen. "Well, although I don't plan to accept an apprentice like you anymore, I don't mind if you want to come to take lessons. You can choose to live in In this village, you can also go to Shaman City to find my students at any time."
Noticing that the other party was a little interested in him, Ganon began to think about whether he should ask some questions to get some information.
At this moment, a call flashed through his mind: "Ganoen..."
"Anya?" Ganon responded subconsciously.
But this time, he didn't get any response from Anya.
