In the spacious hall, Cedric sighed as he looked at Adil and Elwa. He walked directly to Duke Ariel's room, not wanting to disturb them.
After he left, apart from some servants, only Adil and Elwa were left.
"How did you become like this?"
Adil didn't care about Cedro's departure. Instead, he frowned as he looked at Elwa, who needed the help of a cane to even stand.
In Adil's memory, even though Elwa's body was not in good shape, he had received some Knight training. Even though his body was not as strong as some Knight Apprentices, it was still better than ordinary people.
But now, not only had Elwa's left arm been cut off, his footsteps were weak, and he could not even stand steadily. It was as if someone had hollowed him out.
His haggard face made him look like a man in his thirties or forties. He did not look like a young man in his twenties at all.
"I …"
Listening to Adil's words, Elva's face turned bitter. "When I was in the Bablon Kingdom, I was severely injured by someone. Not only did I lose an arm, but I was also unable to exert strength in certain parts of my body."
He looked at Adil, his tone filled with despair and despair, as if he had lost his soul.
Seeing him like this, Adil sighed inwardly.
However, when he thought of Count Poria's dying request, he said, "Rest well for now. After some time, I'll think of a way to heal your arm."
Hearing this, Elwa was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "You can heal my arm?"
He looked at Adil and asked in disbelief. There was an indescribable excitement in his voice.
He had gone from the high and mighty successor of the Northern Lands to a complete wastrel. If he had not experienced this himself, it would be difficult to understand what it was like.
After his wife and child died and he became a cripple, Elwa had given up on himself. Hearing Adil's words, he felt a glimmer of hope.
"That's right, Adil is a legendary Magus. Even my father has to look up to him. He must have a way to heal my injuries!! "
Ai Hua thought excitedly as he held the cane in his right hand and struggled to stand.
"Go and rest. I'll come and find you after a while."
Adil didn't have the mood to say anything else to Elva as he stood in the same place and looked at the wobbly Elva in front of him.
After Adil said that, a few servants walked over and carefully helped Elwa out of the place.
After Elva's figure gradually disappeared, the door behind Adil opened and Cedric walked out.
"How do you feel?"
Looking at the expression on Adil's face, Cedric hesitated for a moment before asking.
"What a great change."
Standing on the spot, Adil's expression was calm. "I had thought that he would be able to live a good life here. I didn't expect that he would end up like this."
Hearing Adil's words, Cedric couldn't help but fall silent.
Even though Elva had become like this mostly because of himself, it was also because of their failure to take good care of him.
When Adil left, they had promised to take good care of Elva. Now that Elva had become like this, they couldn't shirk the responsibility no matter what.
"Prepare a private room for me," Adil said as he stood quietly on the side.
… …
Three days later.
Accompanied by Cedric, Adil once again went to Duke Ariel's room.
At this time, after three days of soaking in the potion, the condition of his body had improved a lot. Not only did the stench completely disappear, even the dense red bumps on his body had mostly disappeared. Although he looked weak, at least he was a lot more normal.
"Adil, you're here."
Entering the room, Duke Ariel's familiar voice sounded.
After three days of recuperation, Ariel had already woken up. He was sitting on a chair with three young people in front of him.
They were Duke Ariel's three sons, and they were chatting with Duke Ariel. When they saw Adil, they immediately greeted him respectfully, "Sir Adil!"
Adil only nodded in response. His expression was as calm as ever, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"You can leave now."
Looking at Adil, Duke Ariel said to his three sons and told them to leave.
After they left, Adil walked up to Duke Ariel and began to examine him.
"Adil, how much longer can I live?"
A voice broke the silence. Duke Ariel looked at Adil and hesitated for a moment before asking, "What are you talking about?
Hearing this question, Adil was a little surprised, but he still replied, "Although your body is in a terrible state right now, with my recuperation, it won't be a problem for you to recover to your previous state. You can live for at least another ten years."
Immediately, Duke Ariel heaved a sigh of relief.
"If you're willing to let me make some changes to you, you can live for another ten years." Adil's voice sounded again.
Hearing this, Ariel was stunned for a moment before asking with interest, "What kind of changes?"
As a top-notch noble, Ariel had heard of the methods of Magi, especially those that could turn people into undead or even monsters.
However, people were afraid of death, especially people like Ariel who held great power. If possible, he would naturally want to extend his life as much as possible. Even if he had to pay a price, he would be willing to do so.
Moreover, as someone from the same clan, he believed that Adil wouldn't harm him without a good reason.
"For Magi, there are many ways to extend their lives. Whether it's spells, potions, or human body modifications, they all have similar effects."
Standing where he was, Adil said, "However, these methods are usually more precious. For now, the only thing I can do is to modify your bloodline."
"Bloodline modification." Hearing Adil's words, Ariel was a little confused and curious as he sat on the chair. "Will there be serious repercussions?"
"I'm not sure yet." Adil shook his head. "Due to time constraints, I haven't started experimenting in this area yet. I still need some time and test subjects."
Before Ariel could reply, Leylin spoke again, "Alright, there aren't many problems with your body for now. For the next half a month, you just need to take my special potions every day, and you'll recover quickly."
"Thank you." Hearing Adil's words, Ariel nodded, his eyes finally revealing a look of joy.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
After dealing with Ariel's matters, Adil looked at Ariel and nodded.
After a while, he walked out of Ariel's room and headed outside.
When he walked out of the manor, there was a group of people standing outside, waiting in Silence beside a horse carriage.
"Are we going back, my lord?"
The coachman asked respectfully as he walked to the side of the carriage and looked at Adil.
"Let's go straight back," Adil said calmly as he got into the carriage.
With a light clatter of horse hooves, they soon arrived at another large manor.
This manor was very large, and it was well managed. There were servants working everywhere, and when they saw Adil walk in, they all bowed respectfully to Adil.
This manor was given to Adil by Ariel as a place for him to stay in Kumar.
Apart from this manor, there were also a large number of other properties scattered around, as well as some gold coins.
He walked into a spacious hall. In front of him, a middle-aged man dressed meticulously in a butler's uniform greeted him. "Sir Adil."
"Xilu, have the batch of people arrived this year?"
Adil asked as he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Lord Xilu has just sent them over, a total of 30 people. According to your request, they are all strong lads. They are now locked up in a room behind the wall. "
The butler named Xilu reported respectfully as he looked at Adil.
In response, Adil nodded and walked in a certain direction.
The manor was very large. After walking for a while, Adil came to a wall.
He took out the key he had on him, opened the door of the wall, and walked out.
On the other side of the wall, there were buildings and huge iron cages.
In those iron cages, there were strong, naked men lying directly in the iron cages. Although they were still breathing, they were not moving at all, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep.
"The sleeping powder I brought from the academy is very convenient. Although it is not useful for Wizards and Knights, it is useful for ordinary people who are just a bit stronger."
Looking at the people lying in front of him, Adil nodded with satisfaction.
He directly walked to the iron cage in front of him, randomly picked a person, and caught him on the experiment table.
Standing in front of the test bench and looking at the test subject in front of him, Adil's expression was calm, and a faint green light flashed in his eyes.
It was a large amount of data flowing, quickly analyzing the data of the test subject in front of him and feeding it back to Adil.
"Target has no obvious disease, healthy, meets the requirements …"
