Tang En was stunned as soon as he stepped out of the door.
The snow at the door had been swept to the sides, and the gloomy clouds had dispersed. Under the warm winter sun, a small figure sat alone on the steps, with two braids hanging listlessly on her shoulders. The girl pouted and played with the small Arcane Ball in boredom. The rich Arcane Ball jumped around in her palm like a naughty little rabbit.
Looking at Elijah's lonely back, Tang En felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
Elijah was the reincarnation of Lady Calamity, and everyone knew about Lady Calamity's prestige. Tang En even felt that the reason why she was an orphan after reincarnation was most likely because her parents could not bear the power of Lady Calamity, so they were killed. Lady Calamity was the so-called jinx.
And she would be all alone in the human world. No matter if she was a god or a human, she would always be all alone in the human world.
Tang En asked himself, if it were him, could he bear that kind of loneliness?
He could not.
Tang En even suspected that the reason why Lady Calamity chose to reincarnate was that she had been lonely for too long, so she wanted to recall the feeling of communicating with others.
Tang En had to say that it was fortunate that Elsa's family gave her family warmth, so Ellington did not suffer a disaster …
At this time, Tang En noticed the Arcane Ball in Elijah's hand and felt the power contained in the Arcane Ball. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat. If that thing fell to the ground, the entire Lord's Residence would probably disappear from the map.
Worried that he would scare Elijah, Tang En intended to cough softly and walk over slowly.
However, Nola, who had been bored for several days, cheered "Elijah" and threw herself on Elijah's head.
When Nola bumped into her, Elijah's little hand trembled and the Arcane Ball fell to the ground.
Tang En was so scared that his face turned pale.
As a result, the moment the arcane sphere was about to explode, it turned into specks of pure mana and returned to Elijah's body.
This kind of willful control … As expected of the reincarnation of a goddess.
Tang En's mouth twitched. He felt that he had been slapped in the face by Elijah again.
"Nola!"
Elijah cheered and turned around expectantly. Sure enough, she saw Tang En's figure. She immediately cried out and threw herself into Tang En's arms.
"Big Brother hasn't been looking for Elijah to play recently! She even made Clairat's mother give me a lot of strange homework! Big brother is the worst! "
Elijah waved her little fists and hit Tang En hard. The little girl was full of grievances and wanted to tell Tang En, but after seeing Tang En, she felt that it didn't matter anymore.
Tang En picked up Elijah and said with a wry smile, "That's not strange homework, but magic knowledge that you must learn and master. I've been so busy recently that I don't have time to teach you. Aunt Clairat can teach you, isn't that good?"
Elijah's whole little face scrunched up. "But those are all so simple! But Mother Clairat's mother has been making me practice repeatedly … "
Simple …
Tang En's mouth twitched. As he walked out, he said earnestly, "The simpler and more basic something is, the more important it is. Tall buildings start from the ground. If you don't have a solid foundation, how can you develop in the future?"
"Tall buildings?"
Elijah's eyes lit up. "Big Brother, have you seen such a tall building?! Where is it? "
"You're focusing on the wrong thing!"
Tang En gently knocked on her head and said with a smile, "All in all, your talent is very good. Aunt Clairat just doesn't want you to grow too fast. It's not good for you to master power that you can't control now."
"Oh …"
Elijah pursed her lips and looked at the busy workers at the construction site. She said with a little grievance, "When the beast tide attacked a few days ago, I wanted to come and help Big Brother …"
"Do I still need your (help) —"
Tang En subconsciously wanted to tease Elijah, but he suddenly swallowed his words halfway. Sometimes, a casual sentence from an adult would have a huge impact on a child's growth. If he had said that sentence just now, it could be foreseen that it would definitely hurt Elijah's enthusiasm.
He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "I'm also looking forward to Elijah being able to help me. That beast tide is nothing. I don't need Elijah. You can only help me when I'm in big trouble. Now, you should learn the knowledge of magic from Aunt Clairat. You can only help me when the time comes."
"So that's how it is!"
Elijah suddenly understood. She happily waved her little fist and said, "I understand! I'll learn well! In the future, when Big Brother is in big trouble, Elijah will definitely be able to help Big Brother! "
In the past, the little girl, who had always been lonely and even received the cold shoulder, had unreservedly trusted Tang En ever since she was rescued from the iron hooves and felt a warmth that she had never felt before. So now, Tang En only needed to use an ingenious technique to increase Eliya's enthusiasm for learning.
If it were other naughty children … Haha.
Along the way, all the residents they met stopped and sincerely offered their respect to Tang En. Some young men and women were even grateful to Tang En — not because he protected Ellington during the beast tide, but because Tang En canceled the right to first night.
Although the rigid class concept had long made that kind of bad habit a matter of course, no one would like to offer their lover to be played by others — even if the other party was a lord that they respected and worshipped.
Therefore, Tang En, who canceled the right to first night, now had a very high reputation among the young people of marriageable age. They were also very protective of Tang En's rule.
At this time, Tang En met Fiona who was hurrying over. After seeing Tang En, Fiona's eyes lit up, "Thank God, you finally came out! I have something to discuss with you! "
"What's the matter? Let's talk while walking. "
Tang En pointed to the woods in the distance and said, "I'm going there to do an experiment."
"Experiment?"
Fiona was startled. She temporarily put down what she wanted to say and asked with interest, "Is it something that you've been busy with these few days? What is it? A new kind of material? Some kind of construction machine? Can it greatly improve our development efficiency? "
Tang En smiled and shook his head, "No, it's a new kind of weapon."
With Tang En as a hands-off manager, as the real CEO of Ellington, Fiona was obviously more concerned about the development of Ellington. When she heard that it was a new kind of weapon, Fiona immediately lost interest — women were not interested in war and killing. Of course, she had no interest in weapons.
They came to a small forest outside the city. This place was very close to the forest that was designated for Grandia and the others to live in. After the experiment, it would be very convenient for them to restore this place.
Although she was not interested, Fiona still pretended to be very interested in satisfying Tang En's pride and asked, "What kind of new weapon is it?"
"It's this."
Tang En took out the enchanted pistol and handed it to Fiona.
"Wow! It's so beautiful! The shape is so unique! "
The enchanted pistol's unique shape and silver-white luster immediately conquered Fiona. This shape made her feel a wonderful throbbing.
However …
"My Lord, are you sure this is a weapon?"
Fiona looked it up and down, but she could not see how this thing looked like a weapon.
It was not sharp enough as a dagger. It was too short as a longsword. As the spearhead of a spear … it was better to use it to smash people.
Fiona pointed at the trigger and asked, "This is called a trigger, right? It looks like the flintlock used by Master Klot and the others, but there is no place to load it with bullets … "
Tang En chuckled, "Guess again."
"I can't guess."
Fiona shook her head and handed it to Elijah who was jumping up and down.
After Elijah played with it for a while, she raised her hand and said happily, "There are magic waves on it. This is a magic weapon, right?"
Tang En looked at Elijah in surprise, "Yes, Elijah is really smart."
Elijah and Nola happily high-fived each other, but Nola was suddenly sent flying. The two little ones suddenly exclaimed.
Fiona instantly blushed. She was now a beginner mage, but she forgot to sense magic waves.
Noticing Fiona's embarrassment, Tang En smiled and said, "Don't be embarrassed. You know Elijah's magic talent. She can detect the magic waves on it without actively sensing it. And most people will not notice whether there are magic waves on this thing."
Tang En's comfort made Fiona feel much better. She gently flipped her blonde hair to hide her embarrassment, "So, how do I use this thing? A staff? Or a consumable like a magic scroll? "
"If you really want to say," Tang En paused, "it is indeed quite similar to a magic scroll."
"Oh?"
Fiona's eyes lit up, "Used to trigger magic?"
"You will know when you see it."
After Tang En finished speaking, he pulled Elijah behind him. After holding the magic pistol, he turned the wheel to the position of the chip of the Fireball spell. After aiming at a tree in the distance, he casually pulled the trigger.
At this moment, the firing pin was connected to the chip of the Fireball spell. The magic array instantly absorbed enough magic from the magic crystal, and then gathered it at the front of the magic release through the built-in magic channel. A circle of bright magic runes appeared in front of the magic pistol. After all the magic gathered there, a fireball rapidly expanded, and then whistled out, directly hitting the tree in the distance.
With a "boom", the tree with a diameter of one meter was directly blown up by the fireball and burned fiercely.
All this happened in just a short half a second. She only came back to her senses when the tree creaked and fell to the ground.
"Isn't this a magic scroll?"
Fiona looked at Tang En with a puzzled expression. She did not understand why he did this. Although it looked very beautiful, what was the use of it?
With a faint smile on his face, Tang En did not answer Fiona's question. Instead, he adjusted the wheel and pulled the trigger repeatedly at a row of trees around him.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh —"
Fireballs, Arcane Missiles, and Pyroblasts appeared one after another, whistling out. "Boom boom boom", in a series of explosions, a row of trees fell with a loud bang. Not only that, but she also saw that Tang En's body had the effects of magic buffs. One was Haste, and the other was Ice Armor. Just when Fiona thought that was all, Tang En's finger trembled slightly and pressed an independent trigger. His figure instantly disappeared and appeared at the place he aimed at ten meters away.
Tang En turned around and smiled. "Now, do you still think it's the same as a magic scroll?"
Looking at the burning tree, the dumbfounded Fiona unconsciously opened her mouth wide, and her mind was completely blank.
Why was Fiona so surprised? Because she did not notice any magic fluctuations on Tang En at all!
In other words, the spell just now was completely released by the weapon in his hand!
