Dragon Who Controls Time

"No wonder the forbidden spell such as ascending the gods can be developed in the future."

Garen looked at the infant Karthus and thought silently.

Among human beings, the gap between genius monsters and ordinary people is not smaller than the gap between legendary dragons and ordinary real dragons in the dragon race, and even bigger.

At this time, Karthus in the eyes of Kanon is a good example.

It can be foreseen that if there is no accident, with his talent, becoming a great arcanist in the future is only a matter of course, and the process will be easy and will not take much time, but even in Netheril, a country where arcane arts have been extremely prosperous, it is still a matter of time. There are not many Arcanists who have spent their entire lives unable to become legends.

In the multiverse, a creature's innate personality or talent, etc., is far more important than hard work and persistence.

As a time dragon, Kanon is very clear about this.

The gods above, as well as the devil lords, the devil princes, the element lords and other divine powers, how many of them have reached the top?

Ninety-nine percent of immortal existences are born like this.

at the same time.

Infant Karthus didn't know why his mage hand failed.

He tilted his head, then began to perform other tricks.

The trick does not require chanting incantations, it mainly depends on the caster's degree of control over the elemental energy, so even a two-year-old arcanist can cast it with just a whimper.

Wind Dance...Under the control of the infant Karthus, a cool breeze appeared in the air and blew towards Garen.

Of course, he didn't say that he was just using tricks. Even if he was using a ninth-level spell, it would not necessarily be effective against Jialong.

"strangeness."

"Why does my spell fail?"

Infant Karthus fell into self-doubt.

This two-year-old child, with a gleam of thought in his eyes, seemed to be thinking about the reason why his spells failed.

Just a few seconds later, Garen noticed that the expression of the young Karthus froze, and after a quiet glance at Garen, he slowly moved his short legs and walked towards his own bed as if nothing had happened.

At the head of his bed, there is a crystal.

It seems to be a communication crystal, which can be used to contact other people.

Probably the Arcanist parents of the infant Karthus.

"Not only is he talented, but his own level of intelligence is also far beyond ordinary people."

Garen looked at the juvenile Karthus with a calm gaze.

Obviously, the young Karthus has understood that it was not his own mistakes that caused the magic to fail, but the creature in front of him dispelled his magic.

A child who was just two years old realized that he was in an uncontrollable state.

So he plans to turn to his grown-up arcanist parents for help.

The faint dragon might emanated and enveloped Karthus, who reached out to touch the communication crystal, and immediately deterred his mind, making the little guy unable to move.

Looking at the communication crystal that could not be touched in front of him, the young Karthus stretched out his hand, but couldn't move at all.

"You, don't eat me."

"I'm so young and have no meat."

The infant Karthus looked at Garen, stammered, and said in a panic.

at the same time.

Under the gaze of Karthus, Garen said, "Little guy, I'm not a bad person, I won't eat you."

Gallen intends to nurture and protect Karthus himself.

After all, the trajectory of history has changed a part. If Karthus cannot grow up, he will come here for nothing.

This task should have been entrusted to Eorem.

However, the demigod arcanist was sneaking in the dark at this time, sneaking into the base camp of Fei Lin Mokui underground, secretly looking for traces of the black hand behind the scenes, wanting to know who is there, wanting to plan Netheril Goddess of Empire and Magic.

Felin's ability is aimed at the Arcanist.

But it also depends on who the other party is. For Eorem, Fei Lin Mokui is not that powerful, and it is the gods behind the scenes that make him jealous.

The task of teaching and protecting Karthus fell to Garen.

Although his magical attainments are not as good as that of the Arcanist King, it is more than enough to teach only one child, and Karthus has already shown his talents. Garen feels that it should not be difficult for him to grow up as soon as possible.

And with this relationship.

When Karthus develops the Ascension Technique, if there are no surprises, he can easily obtain it from him.

After hearing Garen's gentle words, Karthus' nervous little face relaxed a lot.

Garen used a mental hint that no matter how evil the innate talent of the young Karthus was, he could not resist the spell of his demigod dragon, so just one sentence won the trust of the other party.

"Are you a magic cat?"

Longwei dissipated, Karthus looked at Garen curiously with big eyes, and asked.

As a child of the arcane kingdom, Karthus is young, but because of his innate intelligence, he has a certain understanding of magical creatures.

Those who can talk are definitely not ordinary animals.

"Magic cat cat?"

Looking at the clear eyes of the other party, Kanon laughed dumbly.

Next, the white cat jumped gracefully to the smooth floor with wooden texture.

In a flash of silver light, the appearance of the little white cat began to change.

The hair disappeared, turned into scale armor, the body gradually grew larger, the limbs gradually became thicker, and the dragon horns grew out from the top of the head, and the silver dragon scales were shining... In a blink of an eye, a The large dragon that almost filled Karthus' room appeared here.

The juvenile Karthus had his butt pierced on the floor and his eyes widened.

"Dragon, dragon, dragon...Wow, it was Mr. Dragon."

Karthus, who stood up again, looked at the dragon with curious eyes and said.

"Mr. Dragon, why did you come to my house?"

"If you fancy me and want me to be a dragon knight, please forgive me for not being able to agree. I, Karthus, are destined to become a great arcanist."

Hearing the words of the juvenile Karthus, Garen's face darkened.

Dragon knight?

He still dared to think.

Garen stretched out his dragon claws and held Karthus in it.

He was held in the dragon's claws by the giant dragon, but because of Garen's spiritual suggestion before, Karthus thought that Garen had no malice, plus the nature of a child, so he was not so afraid.

"Little guy, how about we make a deal?"

The platinum dragon eyes reflected the infant Karthus, Kanon said.

Little Karthus was stunned for a moment and said, "Deal? What deal?"

Garen narrowed his eyes and asked first, "You like spells very much, right?"

Karthus nodded vigorously, his eyes lit up slightly, and said, "Yes, I want to become a great arcanist like Eorem."

Eorem is the most famous arcanist in the Netheril Empire.

There are floating cities, spells and spells, and there are legends and deeds left by Eorem everywhere.

It was only natural that Karthus Jr. followed his example.

Garon chuckled and lied to the child, "That's right, my magic skills are comparable to Eorem's. I traveled to Faerûn with him to study spells together."

"In the future, I can guide you to learn spells and make you a great arcanist."

"In return, after you grow up in the future, you need to give me a copy of all the spells you developed."

The second half is true.

As for the spell attainments that are comparable to Eorem.... Karthus looked suspicious and said, "Really? I don't believe it."

"Eorem is the greatest arcanist. No one can match him, not even Mr. Dragon."

This kid can't be fooled.

Garen's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a confident and indifferent tone: "Really?"

His dragon tail swept away.

The wardrobe, desk, magic crystal ball, some small toys of Karthus, etc. in the house were swept into the air at the same time.

at the same time.

In the exclamation of little Karthus, everything that was about to fall to the ground froze.

Even the light shining in through the window, the dust inside stopped floating.

This bizarre sight made Karthus open his eyes.

He reached out and poked at a book that was frozen in the air, then exclaimed, "What kind of spell is this?"

Garon smiled and said, "Want to learn? Promise the deal, and I will teach you."

Little Karthus hesitated for a while, but still couldn't bear the curiosity about the ability of time, nodded and agreed.

After all, he is a two-year-old child. Although he is much smarter than his peers, he is still vulnerable to external influences.

"Very well, from now on, you can call me teacher."

"Hello teacher."

Little Karthus said obediently.

On the other side, Jialong looked at his first apprentice who had tricked him, with a strange look in his eyes.

"In the established historical trajectory, the moment Karthus used the divine art, his name was known by the gods, but he also died at that moment."

"However, in this timeline, you may be able to survive and use your talents to perfection."

Garen thought to himself.

Immediately, Garen used the evanescent mirror on Karthus.

Another Karthus was formed by the power of time, flesh and blood, and appeared in this house.

Karthus opened his eyes wide, looking at his mirror image.

Before he could ask a question, Garen pinched Karthus and cast time teleportation, and his body instantly disappeared in place in the ripples of the long river of time.

The Mysterious Barrier of the Floating City prohibits space teleportation, and forcible use will arouse the vigilance of the Arcanist guards.

However, Gallen's time teleportation is completely unaffected by it.

The mirror image of Karthus remained in the room.

With Karthus' Arcanist parents, the essence of the mirror image cannot be discovered.

In the next second, Garon took Karthus and appeared in a deep mountain range that stretched for hundreds of kilometers.

In a canyon with pure flowing water and dense bushes, Garen said to little Karthus: "In the future, I will teach you spells here."

at the same time.

Gallen casts a seventh-level transmutation spell.

Castle making.

In the exclamation of little Karthus, the earth shook, the earth and rocks were uplifted and deformed, and it turned into a castle in a blink of an eye.

Garen shrouded the entire canyon in an invisible magic circle, and raised clouds and mists at the edge to hide it, and then recruited shadow servants, invisible servants, magical beasts, etc., adding some vitality to the empty castle.

At the same time, Kanon's body size returned to his body size.

The majestic and majestic dragon physique made little Karthus add some admiration in his eyes.

Giant creatures naturally have this fascination.

After showing off his spells and body and convincing little Karthus of his ability, Garen officially began to teach little Karthus.

"What kind of ability do you think magic is?"

By the clear stream, the silver dragon said so to the two-and-a-half-year-old boy.

Little Karthus bit his finger, thought about it carefully, and said, "Spell is the power to shape and change reality."

Garen nodded slightly, satisfied with little Karthus' answer.

What he was talking about was not a lengthy introduction to spell principles in some spell books, but a simplified self-understanding.

A two-and-a-half-year-old child can perform magic tricks, and can have such a knowledge of spells, Garen can only use the word evildoer to describe it.

He is a natural arcanist.

"What you think a spell is, that's what it is."

"It can be a killing weapon, a good medicine for saving people, a protective barrier... It is the will of the caster."

Next, Gallen began teaching Karthus Jr. from Zero Ring Trick.

Currently, Karthus himself can three tricks.

Brightness, Dancing Wind, Mage's Hand.

In the spell system, magic tricks, as the most basic magic, are extremely numerous.

When Garen learns tricks by himself, it's almost impossible to count because he can do it with just a glance.

Then, in the process of teaching the little Karthus, he found that when the little Karthus was learning tricks, he could learn it without hindrance.

As if magic was his innate talent.

In the silent canyon, time passed quietly.

The days that followed became simple and repetitive.

Little Karthus studied magic with Garen in the canyon for a week, then returned to the floating city to live for a few days, and then he was taken over by Garen to teach.

Because of his innate love for magic, little Karthus himself was very attentive.

If Garen doesn't go to him for a long time, he will contact Garen in a hurry and want to go back to the canyon with Garen to learn spells.

The spells that Garen knows are much more than those arcanists in the Magic Academy of Floating City.

The river of time flows incessantly.

When little Karthus got older, he became more and more aware of the power of his giant dragon teacher. All the arcane masters he had seen, including the master of the floating city who was the great arcan master, could not compare with him. Long compared.

For Jialong, this little apprentice is very worry-free.

Because of any knowledge related to spells, as long as Garen teaches casually, little Karthus can easily learn it, and even draw inferences from one case and ask Garen to take the initiative to ask questions.

In this regard, for a period of time, Garen's confidence has swelled a little, and he feels that he is too good a teacher.

However, when he thought that Eorem would rather teach himself than need his guidance back then, Garen's heart that had just swelled returned to reality.

obviously.

Karthus's progress was not because of Garen's good teaching, but because of his own talent. He was thrown into an arcane library for ten years. After he taught himself, he could still become a great arcanist.

quickly.

Four years went by in a flash.

In the war between the Arcanist and the Felin Demon Kui, the Arcanist was gradually at a disadvantage.

Because of the extreme restraint of the arcanist's magic suction, it is difficult for the arcanist's spell to cause effective damage to the Felin's magic, and some national forces that do not rely so much on spells are watching from the sidelines, looking forward to the fall of the Nether Empire and not falling to the ground. , does not offer any help.

Countless Fei Lin magic sunflowers use suction magic continuously.

The surface of the earth is constantly deserted, and the energy supply of the magic net core is getting less and less, resulting in the shortage of resources in the floating cities. The most terrible thing is that the immortality technique that the great arcanists depend on for a living has also been sucked by magic. Impact.

It's almost like the ability to suck magic was created to destroy Netheril.

In the area where magic works.

The effect of immortality diminishes rapidly.

If Fei Lin Mokui cannot be solved in time, when the Immortality Technique completely fails, if the Great Arcanist wants to live, he can only give up his mind and body as a human and turn into an immortal alien like a lich.

The Arcanist King, who is regarded as the hope by countless Arcanists and who leads Netheril to glory, has never appeared.

This made Netheril's atmosphere even more solemn.

There were even some rumors that the King of Arcanists saw the end of Netherite's destruction and thought it was irreversible, so he abandoned the country.

Of course, more Arcanists think that the King of Arcanists is looking for a way to solve the Felin Demon Kui in his own way.

However, such a tense situation did not affect Garen and Karthus.

in a green canyon.

Karthus, who is already six years old, wears a small magic robe, holds a short staff, and recites a spell with a solemn expression.

After just a few seconds, he waved his staff.

hum!

Elemental energy gathers.

The three-ring micro-meteor was successfully constructed.

Several fist-sized, small meteor-like light clusters flew around Karthus, and then flew out, landing on the ground and smashing dark pits one by one.

"Teacher, I have learned micro-meteor!"

After successfully casting the spell, little Karthus looked excited, ran to the silver giant dragon like a hill, and said.

Garen raised his eyelids, but his heart was not fluctuating.

"Well, continue to release, shorten the construction time, and I will teach you other third-level spells after you master it."

Karthus, who was just six years old, has officially become a third-circle arcanist, and his peers are still accumulating primitive knowledge of spells at this time, and they can't use a trick.

Little Karthus did not leave immediately.

He hesitated for a moment, and then said to Garen in a weak tone: "Teacher, I accidentally revealed that I would cast formal spells in the floating city."

"People from the Church of the Goddess of Magic came to my house, many times, and asked me to join the Church of the Goddess and become a believer of the Goddess."

Garen frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I tell you to keep a low profile?"

Little Karthus shrank his neck, then lowered his head, staring at his toes.

Garen shook his head slightly, but did not reprimand.

After all, it is only a six-year-old child, and it is unavoidable to unintentionally reveal his true level.

"Look up and look straight at me."

Hearing the words of the silver dragon, Karthus raised his head and looked at the pair of platinum dragon eyes as deep as the sea.

He could see his little figure in it.

"Don't be angry, teacher, I won't dare next time."

Karthus said.

Garon looked down at the future great arcanist and said in a serious tone, "Karthus, do you want to join the Church of the Goddess of Magic?"

"I won't interfere with you in this matter."

He said in a calm voice: "If you want, then join. If you don't want to, the people from the Church of the Goddess of Magic will not come to you again."

Karthus, who was just six years old, shook his head, with a hint of pride on his tender face.

"I don't want to be a believer of a god."

"Being God is my goal."

"And I believe that one day, I will become a god."

He knew he was different and had big goals.

Garen chuckled and said, "What kind of god do you want to be?"

Karthus looked up at the sky with a look of longing, and said, "Of course it's the god of magic."

After hearing Karthus' answer, Garen was slightly startled.

This guy...Canon is more and more convinced that he can develop the Ascension Technique in the future. He was only six years old and already had such a goal.

"With the goddess of magic, it is not easy for you to become the god of magic."

Garen smiled.

Karthus thought for a while and said, "This world is so big, can't it accommodate two gods of magic at the same time?"

Garen nodded and said, "I'm afraid not."

Karthus smiled and said in a joking tone: "Then I will replace the goddess of magic."

"At that time, teacher, if you want to follow me, I can make you a god too."

Garen blew a sigh of relief, made Karthus unsteady, and sat down on the ground.

"Let me follow you is more difficult to achieve than the goal of replacing the goddess of magic."

Karthus patted Ash on his butt and stood up and said, "Hey, how do you know if you can't do it if you don't try it?"

After that, the six-year-old boy continued to practice spells.

After almost two or three casts, he was able to cast Micro-Meteor with ease, and then Gallen began to teach him new third-level spells.

After a while, Garen brought Karthus back to the floating city.

At the same time, he changed into the appearance of Eorem and went to the Church of the Goddess of Magic in the floating city.

The Church of the Goddess of Magic is the only officially recognized church organization in the Netheril Empire.

This church is distributed in major floating cities, and a certain number of arcanists have joined it because of their belief in the goddess of magic.

After walking through the bustling streets for a while, Garen, wearing a hooded robe, arrived at the location of the Church of the Goddess of Magic.

The vision goes up the stairs, and you can see the sculpture belonging to the goddess of magic.

On the wall of the temple, seven swirling stars are imprinted, which is the holy symbol of the goddess of magic. Arcanists who believe in the goddess of magic come and go and enter the church to pray.

As for the ordinary arcanists passing by, most of them will stop and pay their respects to the goddess of magic before leaving.

Therefore, the goddess of magic has a high status in Netheril.

Garen raised his head and lifted his hood, revealing Eorem's appearance.

As soon as he appeared, wearing the appearance of Eorem, he naturally attracted a lot of attention.

"Your Excellency Eorem, is there anything you need to do at the church?"

"Do you need me to take you to see the bishop?"

A cultist came over and asked Garen.

The priest of the goddess of magic did not believe that someone would pretend to be the Arcanist King in the temple, and could not detect Garen's disguise.

"To your bishop here."

"Kalthus is my disciple, and the people from the Church of the Goddess of Magic will stay away from him in the future."

Garen said lightly.

Hearing his words, the surrounding believers looked at each other.

The king of arcane masters actually went off the stage to compete with the Church of the Goddess of Magic for disciples...... Some arcane masters were thinking, who is Karthus, who would be so honored?

And some arcanists who knew this genius felt that they might have underestimated Karthus' talent.

"We will pass on your words."

said the believer.

They dare not neglect the Arcanist King.

In the Nether Empire, the actual influence of the goddess of magic is not as strong as that of Eorem. Compared with an illusory god, it is more worthy of the arcanist's respect to lead the Nether Empire to the great arcanist king.

Suddenly.

Garen noticed a peeping gaze.

He turned his head and looked, his eyes fell on the sculpture of the goddess of magic.

He smiled lightly at the statue of the Goddess of Magic and bowed politely, then the peeping gaze disappeared, and Garen left the place.

at the same time.

deep underground.

Going through the layers of dirt and rocks, all the way down, somewhere underground you can reach a huge area with an empty cave, countless twisting tunnels all over it, with traces of slippery slime.

Innumerable Fei Lin Mokui live here.

This is the base camp of Fei Lin Mo Kui.

At the same time, the King of Arcanists, who became Fei Lin Mo Kui, walked through it, using telepathy very familiarly, chatting and communicating with other Fei Lin Mo Kui on the road, and every move was no different from ordinary Fei Lin Mo Kui. .
