A small spatial ring was placed in front of Casulefin.
Then, the old Mage turned around and said to Roland respectfully, "Three hundred high-quality magic gems. Each of them is worth at least one gold coin, and some of them are worth up to three gold coins. The total price is about 700 gold coins. "
Roland nodded. This was indeed a high value.
Seven hundred gold coins was enough to rebuild a mid-level noble family.
But whether the victim was satisfied or not was another matter.
He looked at Casulefin and asked her for her thoughts with his expression.
Casulefin nodded. She was a maid and had never seen such a large sum of money, so naturally, she wouldn't have any more ideas.
"Then so be it."
Roland didn't want to cause any more trouble. After all, Aldo meant that he would be satisfied to be able to bring out his illegitimate child.
Now that Roland had brought out a mother and daughter, it was already a bonus.
Hearing Roland's words, the old Mage breathed a sigh of relief, revealing an expression of having survived a disaster.
It was normal for a Mage like Roland, who had a floating city, to destroy a country by himself, let alone a small magic family.
Roland took Casulefin out of the Association of Mages, then summoned a soft white cloud for the two of them to stand on, and slowly flew into the sky.
Casulefin was a little scared and stood next to Roland, not daring to move.
The little girl, on the other hand, was very excited at the moment. She even ran to the edge of the white cloud, looked down, then ran to the other side, looked down, and finally ran around the entire cloud.
This frightened Casulefin. She shouted at the side and told the little girl not to run around. What if she fell down?
"Don't worry, there's a barrier at the edge of the cloud, and even if a dragon pounces, it may not be able to break through." Roland looked at the little girl running around in front of him, a little surprised, and then asked, "What's her name?"
"Yadseer." Casulefin looked at her daughter and smiled gently. "Aldo said she had a lot of talent for being a Mage, and he wanted to enchant her when she was six, but I didn't expect …"
Roland nodded.
The girl was indeed talented, as expected of a descendant of a Mage.
As she walked, she was already absorbing magic power on her own.
Although it was very weak, this magic would slowly change the magic affinity of her body. When she really began to learn magic in the future, she would have a better starting point than the average magic apprentice.
"I'll be her teacher," Roland said with a smile.
Aldo was the one who recognized his talent. His daughter was talented in magic, so of course he had to support her.
"Thank you, Mr. Roland." Casulefin let out a long sigh of relief. She was thinking about how to make Roland her daughter's teacher.
She could even give herself to him.
But since Roland had volunteered, there was no need for the trouble.
Relaxing, she asked, "Mr. Roland, where are we going now?"
"Aldo said that he had another illegitimate child." Roland looked into the distance. "He asked me to take care of him too."
"I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time." Casulefin looked at Roland expectantly. "You keep saying that Aldo asked you to come. Is he not dead?"
"Dead! I met him in the Divine Realm of Magic. "
Casulefin quickly calmed down, and after a while, she wiped her eyes and said, "That's good, at least he's still in the divine realm."
For most civilians, it was definitely a blessing to be able to enter the divine realm after death.
So Casulefin's mood was a little better, but she was a little hesitant at the thought that the man was gone and the future seemed to be dark.
Soon they arrived above the village of Tasha, and Roland landed about five hundred meters away from the village so as not to scare the villagers, then walked in with Casulefin and her daughter.
He asked a lazy villager who was sunbathing at the entrance of the village and found the Kardashians' house.
Outside the simple little thatched hut, a family of three was doing farm work.
The only thing that grew in the desert was the cactus fruit, which was called red fruit outside.
They were picking the red fruit.
The little boy reached out to pick the red fruit surrounded by spikes, was accidentally pricked, and pulled his hand back.
Then the man saw it and yelled, "You can't even pick the fruit well. What's the point of having a piece of trash like you? You only know how to eat and sleep all day."
After saying that, the man didn't feel relieved and walked over and kicked the boy to the ground.
The woman with a white scarf wrapped around her head had a troubled look on her face, but didn't dare to speak.
"Bigby, don't think I don't know you're a son of a bitch. When you grow up for another two years, I'm definitely going to sell you for some capital. Bah. "
The man and woman were dark-skinned and looked typical of the Sand Nation.
But the boy's skin was a light wheat color, even leaning more toward white. It was obvious that he wasn't an authentic Sand Nation and was definitely a mixed-race.
Two authentic Sand Nation people giving birth to a mixed-race child — as long as one wasn't a fool, they would know there was something wrong with this.
The man's irritation and anger were also understandable.
Roland and the others watched from behind, finding it strange.
The woman wasn't beautiful, and could even be said to be a little ugly. Her only advantage was probably that she was hardworking and looked like the type that would take care of children at a glance.
What on earth had happened for Aldo to have a child with a woman like this?
He was a Mage, after all, and it was easy for a beautiful woman to throw herself at him.
The little boy stood up with a confused look, then was kicked down again.
The man still felt angry and was about to stomp on him a few more times when Roland spoke from behind.
"Since you don't like this child, how about selling him to me?"
The sudden voice startled the two farmers. They turned around and saw Roland's magic robe glowing with a pale green light, as well as his light skin color, and knew that a big shot had come.
The two subconsciously knelt down.
In Urganda, the prestige and prestige of a Mage were much higher than that of a noble.
"Are you for sale?" Roland walked up to them and asked with a smile.
"Yes!"
"Not for sale." It was the woman's voice. She raised her head with a pained expression.
Roland looked at the man. "How much?"
"Just give me any price, Master."
Roland smiled. "The simplest thoughts of farmers, not bad. Five silver coins, are you willing? "
"Good, good, good!" The man raised his head and rubbed his hands excitedly.
In fact, not to mention five silver coins, Roland was willing to pay five gold coins, or even fifty gold coins.
But Roland believed that as long as the couple had a gold coin in their hands, they probably wouldn't live long.
So, Roland offered five silver coins, which was money suitable for their current status, not a death warrant.
"Master, I don't want to sell it."
"It's not your turn to speak." The man leaned sideways and slapped the woman in the face. "I raised the child you had with that dog outside until he was five years old. What more do you want? If you're not willing to sell it, you can get lost too. "
The woman dared not speak again and lowered her head deeply.
Roland looked at the child who was slowly getting up from the ground, slightly surprised.
Then, he took out five silver coins and put them in front of the man, saying, "I'll take him away now."
Then, he saw the woman with her head lowered, with tears falling to the sand in front of her.
Roland sighed inwardly and said, "Don't worry, I'll have Bigby come back to see you from time to time."
The woman suddenly raised her head, her face full of delight.
Roland ignored her. After all, he had said what he needed to say. He looked at the little boy standing behind the two of them and said with a smile, "Bigby, come here."
Bigby looked at Roland in confusion, then at his parents in confusion, his feet rooted to the ground and motionless.
Roland summoned a white cloud and stepped on it first, followed by Casulefen and her daughter.
Standing tall, Roland looked at Bigby, motionless, and he didn't speak either.
As the seconds passed, the atmosphere grew weirder and weirder.
Farmer Svettian wanted to call for Bigby to come over and follow the Mage, but for some reason, he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
He even had the feeling that he was an unimportant passerby.
The farmer woman, Kardashian, looked anxious. She kept signaling for Bigby to hurry to the Mage, but didn't dare to speak … Women in the desert kingdom had a very low status, and in formal situations, they were hardly qualified to speak.
So she grew more and more nervous, fearing that the Mage would get angry and even beat her son to death if he waited too long.
In the legends, the mages' teachers were all mysterious and unpredictable, and their moods were unpredictable.
Bigby glanced at his mother, and finally he grinned, walked over, and climbed on.
Roland smiled and piloted the white cloud into the sky, flying in the direction of Delpon.
The reason why he didn't use Teleportation was that the two children's bodies were still too fragile, mainly because he was too strong now and his magic power was too vast, and if he didn't control it well, he could easily hurt them.
Flying in the air, the little girl, Yadseer, hid behind her mother and looked curiously at Bigby.
Bigby, on the other hand, stood opposite Roland with his head down, his face expressionless, not wanting to speak, as if he wasn't very smart.
Roland looked at the little boy for a moment and smiled. "You just had a strong murderous intent toward me, as if you wanted to kill me. Why?"
It was too easy for a Legendary Mage to perceive the mental fluctuations of a child.
Casulefen's face was full of shock.
She couldn't imagine that a child less than six years old would dare to have murderous intent in the face of a powerful Mage.
Shouldn't he be trembling with fear?
Like her daughter.
Bigby slowly raised his head and looked at Roland, his confused expression gradually turning unruly. "You took me away from my mother, you made me leave her."
His voice was full of hatred and anger.
"It's not like you're not allowed to go back to see her."
"What Mages say is false, it's all to deceive children."
Roland laughed. "Is there anything about you worth deceiving? Or is it that your meat is so valuable that if I sell you, I can buy a dragon and bring it back to make soup to drink? "
Bigby froze.
He also understood that he was the son of a lowly farmer, or the son of a peasant woman … After all, he was of mixed blood, and he didn't know who his real father was.
"If you learn this flying spell from me, wouldn't it be a simple matter for you to go back to see her?" Roland stepped on the white cloud beneath him with his right foot.
Bigby froze for a moment as he looked at Roland, his eyes glowing. "You want to teach me magic, why are you so nice to me? Are you my real father? "
Children from poor families matured early, and children who were beaten every day were more sensible.
He had known that he wasn't Svettian's son, so sometimes he wondered who his father was and why he would abandon himself and his mother here.
Casulefin froze for a moment, then laughed out loud.
Roland also shook his head. "I'm not your father, but your father and I are good friends."
"Where is he?" Bigby asked expectantly.
"Dead."
The child's eyes dimmed. "I knew it, or he would have come to pick me and my mother up."
"But you still have other relatives." Roland pointed to Casulefin and her daughter. "This is your stepmother and sister."
Although the two children looked about the same age, Roland could still distinguish that Yadseer was the eldest daughter in terms of time.
Bigby's eyes swept over Casulefin without any expression, but when his gaze fell on the little girl, his expression softened a lot, and he even pulled the corners of his mouth into a smile.
"So, Uncle, where are you taking me?"
"My Magic Tower. You'll be my student from now on, until you can stand on your own."
"I'm going to teach me magic?" Bigby was finally a lot warmer to Roland. "But I don't have any money. I heard it costs a lot to learn magic."
"Don't worry, you don't have to pay. Your only task is to learn magic well, and you don't have to worry about anything else."
"Thank you." Bigby believed Roland, because he knew that there was nothing to deceive about a poor boy like him. The other side was a Master Mage, and if it wasn't out of kindness, there was no way he could be so patient with a child like him. But he was a little puzzled. "But why didn't you take my mother with you, when she could have gone with you? Is it because she's beautiful? "
Bigby pointed at Casulefin.
Casulefin blushed at once, not daring to look at Roland.
"First, Casulefin and I know each other, kind of acquaintances. But I don't know your mother, "Roland explained patiently. Roland explained patiently, "Secondly, your father only asked me to teach you magic. He didn't say anything about your mother. Besides … your mother has a husband now, understand? Later, when you finish your apprenticeship and have your own financial means, you can naturally take her over and keep her by your side to repay her and show your filial piety. That's your duty, not mine. "
Bigby nodded to show that he understood. "So from now on, should I call you teacher?"
"Of course."
Casulefin was a little anxious on the side, and immediately pulled out her daughter behind her and pushed her in front of Roland.
"And your sister." Roland smiled.
Casulefin breathed a sigh of relief.
After flying for most of the day, Roland finally returned to Delpon with the three burdens.
When he landed at the manor, Andonara immediately came up to greet him with a smile.
Roland, however, felt a little strange. He scanned Andonara up and down and asked, "Why are you acting weird today?"
Andonara tilted her head with a puzzled look.
