Arcane Lord

Just when Shado thought that Regent would end the conversation and go to the banquet hall, the other party spoke again:

"Advisor Shado, it may not be a big deal if you say this in private, but if you say it in public, it may attract hostility from the upper families!"

"Thank you for your reminder, elder. I only say those words to elders like you who care about the lower classes. Otherwise, who would bother to say it outside?"

"It's good that you think so. But--" Regent changed the subject and showed a self-deprecating expression, "I don't care about the lower classes as much as you say.

"In fact, before today, the reason why I wanted to improve the status of druids was more to fight with my father and to atone for my cowardice. Do you want to hear my story?"

"I'm happy to! "Shado said without hesitation.

The private dinner tonight was originally to bring him and Regent together. Now it just took a little more time. Urban and Larian would not fail to understand. They might even have made corresponding plans.

The courtyard under the moonlight revealed a quiet and deep atmosphere, but Regent did not seem to like this atmosphere. After Shado responded that he was willing to listen, he turned on the magic lights on the corridors around the courtyard.

In an instant, the surrounding night retreated, and the soft light sprinkled in the courtyard, casting the shadows of the narrator and the listener on the wall at the same time. Then Regent began to narrate slowly:

"This has to start from my youth. At that time, I was not satisfied with being an heir trapped in the courtyard, but was thinking about going out of the city for adventure.

"Later, I don't know whether my father deliberately relaxed or for some other reason, I really slipped out and ran all the way to the swamp west of Everiska. I originally wanted to run all the way to Sharwen.

"In the end, I met the monster that I still fear in the swamp. The other party just glanced at me from a distance, and I was infected with a kind of poisonous spores that the amulet could not resist."

Speaking of this, even though hundreds of years have passed, Regante still shuddered subconsciously, "That kind of poisonous spores are not directly fatal, but they will paralyze the consciousness of the creature."

"At that time, I had not learned the teleportation spell, and the communication spell was not enough to penetrate the Everiska maze. The teleportation scepter and communication magic tool prepared by my father for me were deliberately thrown away at home.

"At that time, I wanted to ask for help but there was nothing I could do. But just when I was about to lose consciousness, a druid who was out searching for plants appeared.

"Although druids rarely master advanced spell knowledge, the holy power itself comes from the Lord God and has various miraculous effects. At that time, the druid did not completely cure me, but greatly delayed the spread of the poisonous spores.

"After that, he sent me back to Everiska, but what was waiting for him was not a reward, but my father's secret execution!"

"Ah?!" Shado couldn't help but exclaimed.

And Regante was not surprised by such a reaction. He continued: "It's incredible, right? But in fact, as long as I change my identity, the druid who saved me will not die.

"But I happen to be the heir of the Star Wind Family. My father can't accept the fact that a noble mage like me was saved by a lowly druid, and he thinks that this is a shame for the family.

"If he wanted to erase this shame, he certainly wouldn't kill me, but he could kill the druid. As long as the druid didn't exist, then the fact that I was saved by him would naturally not exist.

"He thought so and did so. He secretly killed the druid before I fully recovered and thanked him.

"Later, this incident became the biggest gap between my father and me, but my father has always been strong at home. The elders of the family also complained about this matter, but they dared not have any objections due to my father's authority.

"As for me, let alone, even if I succeeded my father as the patriarch and even successfully entered the Everiska Elders Council, my father's shadow has always been over my head.

"No matter what I did, I couldn't escape my father's instructions. This state continued until he could no longer resist Afanduo's call.

"After my father left, I was relieved. After a short period of adaptation, I decided to do something to make up for the regrets of the year. "

"So that's it! "

Shado thought of the intelligence about Reganth that Dum had given him before. It mentioned that Reganth's policies in the agricultural field have become more and more relaxed as time goes by, which is in sharp contrast to its previous strong position.

Even in the past ten years, Reganth has proposed to improve the status of druids more than once.

Before, Shado only regarded the former as a manifestation of Reganth's political maturity, but this is inconsistent with the behavior of repeatedly proposing to improve the status of druids, which is against the mainstream.

So he was also very curious about what kind of elf the real Reganth is.

Now he knows that if Reganth is not lying, this is really an extremely painful journey!

"In fact, the reason why I accepted the conditions proposed by Kalish and didn't want to go to Afandor to see his father is also a key factor. If there is no Kalish, then I might choose to reconstruct the Everiska maze. "

No one wants to die if they can live, but even if they die, Regante does not want to go to Avandor. It just so happens that part of the permissions of Everiska's maze are controlled by the Alliance, which is a great threat to Everiska.

Reconstructing the maze may not completely regain that part of the permissions, but it can also improve the corresponding permissions as much as possible, so that the permissions of the Alliance are limited to the Alliance and will not be abused.

With his sacrifice, his heirs may have a smoother road in the future.

Since Kalish is mentioned again, Regante seems to have suddenly thought of something, and his face becomes serious again. He looks directly at Shado and reminds solemnly:

"Be careful of Kalish, you may not think of how exaggerated the other party is when persuading me!"

"What is it? Did he extend your life first? Or did he show something amazing again?" Shado asked.

It seems that the impact of the new artifact plan is so far-reaching that Regante cannot be unaware of the risks involved. Even if he is willing to take risks, how can Kalish guarantee that his promise will be fulfilled?

I think Kalish showed some evidence to Regent when they met, which convinced Regent and made him change his mind. (End of this chapter)
