Episode 2 Growing Up Chapter 5: Shadow Mouse ‘Bebe’ (above)

“Ernst Academy, the continent’s number one magic academy, any magician who graduates from the academy is at least a rank six magician, and there are even quite a few rank seven magicians! As long as a rank seven magician appears in our Baruch family, at least the family’s inherited treasure will be possible to get back.”

Hogg spoke while looking at Linley expectantly.

His father’s expectations, Linley felt it.

“Inheritance treasure, the Dragonblood Clan’s inheritance treasure was lost outside, this shame must be washed away.”

Linley also felt his heart sink.

As a son or daughter of the Dragonblood Warrior Family, they were all proud to be a member of the ancient, great Dragonblood Warrior Family, but the great Dragonblood Warrior Family’s inheritance treasure had been lost outside, what a great shame this was, whether it was Hogg, or the family’s forefathers over the centuries every time they thought about it, they all felt endlessly humiliated.

Unfortunately, the family that could collect the warblade ‘Slaughter’ was not an ordinary family, and the Baruch family today was too weak.

“Ernst? The Legendary Pope of the Illuminati?”

Next to him, Derrin Corvette was surprised.

“Grandpa Delin, what’s wrong?”

Linley said suspiciously, “The Illuminati Legendary Pope ‘Ernst’, the hundreds of millions of inhabitants of the six kingdoms and fifteen duchies in the Holy Alliance are all presumably aware of it.”

Linley was also well aware of the deeds of that Legendary Pope ‘Ernst’ of the Illuminati.

He had caused the Illuminati to elevate its position, and had single-handedly created the ‘Holy Alliance’.

“I didn’t expect that boy Ernst would have such a great achievement and become the legendary Pope of the Illuminati.”

Derrin Corvette sighed.

“Grandpa Delin, you know Pope Ernst?”

Linley was somewhat surprised.

However, Linley thought carefully.

It was also right, back when the Puong Empire was still in unification, the Light and Dark Clerics, as well as the Great Temples, there were quite a few clerical pantheons throughout the Puong Empire. But those temple shrines were all under the control of the Empire.

“Of course, Ernst is a genius, stepping into the Holy Realm at nearly fifty years old, but in my time, he could only be considered a rising star.”

Derinkovot said blandly.

When Derinkovot was still alive, Ernst was still in his formative years, when Ernst had just stepped into the Holy Realm, while Derinkovot had already stood at the top of the entire Yulan Continent, and belonged to the top of the line even among the Holy Realm powerhouses.

Derinkelwalt, in the Puan Empire, was extremely high. It was far from being comparable to Ernst.

Ernst also had to bow respectfully when he saw Delinkovort.

“I didn’t expect that after my death, Ernst would be so accomplished.”

Drinkwater said with a faint smile.

Linley couldn’t help but admire Derinkovort even more in his heart at the moment, the top Saint Realm powerhouse from the days of the Puan Empire, the peak powerhouse of the Yulan Continent. And now he was here carefully teaching himself, what a great fortune.

At the dinner table, the Baruch family also talked more happily.

“Linley, a week from now I’ll have your Uncle Hillman take you to the royal capital, ‘Finlay City’, to take that magic enrollment test.”

Hogg said to Linley with a smile.

“Yes, father.”

Linley nodded and said.

“Young Master Linley, I’m sure you’ll enter the best magic academy.”

That butler, Healy, laughed.

“The best, oh, the best.”

Little Walden ate with his hands full of oil, and was still laughing and clapping his hands there.

Hogg said with a bashful smile, “Becoming a wizard is not that simple, I’m afraid that only one in ten thousand people has that qualification. And to enter the Ernst College, the conditions are even higher, none of them are extremely high in magical qualifications. If Linley can become a magician, I’ll already be satisfied, no matter which academy I enter.”

“Father, I won’t let you down.”

Linley spoke these words with confidence.

Because Linley he was already a first level magician. ……

Time passed, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.

Linley was lying on the grass in the backyard of the family mansion, and next to him, the black little shadow mouse was bouncing around Linley, its mouth constantly ‘squeaking’, but Linley didn’t care about it at all.

The little shadow mouse’s eyes rolled, and it stood upright, its forelimbs resting on Linley.

“Squeak.”

The little shadow mouse squealed in dissatisfaction.

Linley stroked the little shadow mouse’s head, “Alright, stop it. Tomorrow I’m leaving home to go to the royal capital, and even more so when the Magic Academy enrolls, so I’m afraid I won’t have much of a chance to be with you in the future.”

Magic Academy, one cannot bring the little shadow mouse there.

Magic Academy, none of the students inside were ordinary people, and there were quite a few powerful magicians. If they found out about the little shadow mouse, they were afraid that they would come directly to subjugate the little shadow mouse. There were seventh and eighth level magicians in the Magic Academy. It wouldn’t be difficult to capture the little shadow mouse.

After all, one did not conclude a contract with the Little Shadow Mouse, others could still subdue the Little Shadow Mouse.

“Oooh,” the little shadow mouse couldn’t help but hum in a low voice even as it heard what Linley said.

“You can’t understand even if I tell you.”

Linley shook his head helplessly.

“Entering the Magic Academy, I don’t know how many years it’ll take, when it’s a few years from now, will we still be able to see each other again?”

Linley stroked the small shadow mouse’s smooth fur with some reluctance, and after messing around with the small shadow mouse for nearly a month, he had also truly grown fond of this adorable little shadow mouse.

The little shadow mouse squinted its eyes and ‘hummed’ as it was comfortably stroked by Linley.

The next day after lunch, the Baruch family’s front yard.

Hogg’s body was as straight as a javelin, looking straight at Linley in front of him, ”Linley, our Usan Town is still relatively close to the royal capital, only ninety miles, you should be able to make it to the royal capital before nightfall. Remember, don’t get into trouble when you get to the royal capital, there are too many dignitaries in the royal capital.”

“Yes, father.”

Linley respectfully arrived.

“Hillman, Linley is in your hands.”

Hogg looked to Hillman next to him.

Hillman smiled and said, “Lord Hogg, feel free to rest assured.”

“Good, you guys set off.”

Hogg laughed.

“Goodbye, father.”

Linley said respectfully before smiling and looking at little Walden, “Walden, brother is leaving oh.”

Little Walden blinked his eyes at Linley at this time, saying unwillingly, “Brother, goodbye.”

Linley glanced in the direction of the backyard and said in his heart, “I’m afraid that no one will be sending food to the little Shadowmouse for the next two days.”

Next to him, Hillman said to Linley, “Linley, stop gawking, let’s go.”

“Yes, Uncle Hillman.”

Linley no longer thought much about it, and immediately followed Uncle Hillman as he left the Baruch family’s mansion.

“Squeak,” on the roof of the Baruch family’s living room, the little shadow mouse was eyeing Linley and Hillman leaving. The little shadow mouse tilted its head with doubt in its eyes, in its eyes, Linley should have gone to kill hares, why did he leave with another person today with a package on his back?

The little shadow mouse loved Linley.

This month, it had also caused the little shadow mouse, who didn’t have any relatives, to treat Linley as his own.

“Abet!”

The little shadow mouse’s figure moved, disappearing above the roof of the Baruch family in an instant, and in two or three clicks, it was on the roof of another civilian house, eyeing Linley and Hillman. The little Shadowmouse trailed after Linley, and in a moment, he was out of Usan Town.
