The great sage is very tired

Chapter 22 Birthday

It was Orfield's birthday.

He didn't think of this incident by himself, but the interstellar people helped him think of it.

The birthday of the great sage has been fixed as one of the interstellar statutory holidays. At the beginning, when humans had not left their mother planet Elune, it was a global festival. When human beings' development footprint has expanded to the entire Silver Wing Galaxy At that time, his birthday naturally became an interstellar festival.

The elves, the dragons, and the humans have many different habits, and the festivals are also different. Only this festival is consistent. After all, he maintained a good relationship with the dragons and the elves back then.

Coincidentally, the birthday of Offield's reborn body, Offield Chris, is also on this day.But Oldfield didn't pay much attention to the birthday itself, so when Essie asked him to go out on this day, he thought his elf friend was there for the shopping mall's holiday discount...

When Oldfield saw Ace at the school gate, in addition to noticing that he was dressed very formally today, he also found someone he hadn't thought of before - a magic fighter who was written as Anser and pronounced as the pirate chief.

"Hi, hello junior." Anser greeted him with a grin against his indescribable gaze.

"Hello." Offield turned to look at Ace, wanting to ask him what's going on.

"Anser heard that it's your birthday today, so he must come." Ace shrugged, "But I think he just wants to grab some food."

On the anniversary day, there are many activities in shopping malls and restaurants. If you happen to have the same birthday as the great sage, you can enjoy a big discount with your identity information, and some stores will even give you a free order.

Oldfield: "..."

All right, as long as you are happy.

"And you know that our dean is a loyal fan of the great sage, right?" Ace pointed to the three-person-high statue of the great sage at the gate of the First Magic Academy, "The principal has been working in the First Magic Academy since his tenure. Every year on the anniversary day of the year, there will be a lottery within the academy, and there will be ten winners, this year's prize is Longxing's specialty snow crystal, and the worst-looking ones on the market can go up to 30."

"Since the principal's tenure, every time he pays out of his own pocket, he is a specialty of Dragon Star, so many of us are suspecting that he is from the Dragon Clan." Anser followed up to share gossip, "But the Dragon Clan is notoriously useless in magic, so there are some Many people don't believe that there will be dragons coming to the magic academy to be the principal."

The Dragon Clan is not a waste of magic, but just too lazy to learn magic.Dragons are born to control fire, and their physique has a higher affinity for elements than humans. However, for most dragons, tyrannical weapons are the embodiment of strength. Magic is a method that requires skills and brains. They are too lazy to learn and study. .

In the past, Orfield often had a headache because of his dragon's learning progress in magic.He will always remember that when he tailored the first staff for the young dragon, the little dragon took the staff and waved it vigorously, disliking the lightness of it.

Talking about magic with dragons is like talking about cutting trees with elves.

=======

When Orfield was shopping with Ace and Anser, the dragon he had been talking about was getting drunk in his office.

Even though she had been the principal's assistant for five years and had to make such a fuss every year on this day, Via still felt that she couldn't control the scene.

Some people go to bed drunk, some get drunk and go crazy, and some get drunk and go crazy before going to sleep, but their principals drink differently from others.

On the large desk in front of him, which was two people long and half the width of a person, wine bottles were neatly arranged, and each bottle was arranged more neatly than a military parade.Although he doesn't smile often, the headmaster with a pretty good temper keeps a straight face and pours wine into his mouth expressionlessly. "Ton Ton Ton" raises his hand to grab a bottle. After drinking, he puts the bottle on the table lightly. With a light push, the empty bottle slid to where it should go.

Every time she heard the faint sound of the empty wine bottle colliding with the bottle next to it when it was in place, Via couldn't help shivering slightly.

He looked like he felt a stomach ache for the headmaster.It would be fine if these wines were ordinary wines. After all, due to race, human spirits have little effect on the Dragon Clan. Ordinary dragons pour three bottles and can sleep for three days and three nights.

But now there are thirty bottles on the table, and according to Via's experience, this is only a small part, the principal must at least finish the several boxes at his feet.

If it's just drinking too much, then there's nothing wrong with it.The problem was that the more the principal drank the wine, the uglier his face became, and the more violent his aura became. Via, a sixth-level mage, felt a little suffocated hiding in the corner of the room. The pressure from the strong made him unable to breathe.

But he can't leave.

As the assistant principal, one of the most important tasks is to keep him in the office on this day and not let him go out and go crazy.

The specific operation is to draw a circle under his nose with the precious magic wand in the principal's glass cabinet, and then throw it into the secret room under the office. When he chases down, seal the door from the outside, and wait two days before opening the door.

The whole process made it hard for Via not to think of teasing the dog with fleshy bones.

But the difficulty of violent suppression is too high, at least it must be a strong man of the great sage level or an SSS-level mecha warrior-and such a person, the entire Silver Wing Galaxy does not add up to more than two slaps.

So that's fine... right?Via thought uncertainly.

Perseus actually didn't understand why he couldn't help missing him.

Dragons are mostly casual, and they can be called the race with the biggest hearts.The innate lifespan of dragons is much longer than other races, so most dragons have learned to get used to parting in the first 1000 years of life.Moreover, the relationship between them is even weaker. There are almost few families in the Dragon Clan. Most male and female dragons stay together if they like it, and separate after a few years if they don't like it.If the child is taken by one party when he is not yet an adult, he will be kicked out when he becomes an adult.

Most of the current marriage laws of the dragon people are formulated for the dragon people to find foreign partners.For the dragons, one of the ten pairs of dragons may not necessarily be willing to go through the marriage procedures. They find it troublesome and complicated, and they have to divide the property when they separate.

During Perseus' 3000-plus years of dragon life, he spent most of his time inside the dragon clan.The time he spent with Oldfield was only 30 years, he should have forgotten him long ago.

That's right.

But he can't.

Before he was born, there was a turmoil in the Dragon Clan, and his parents died in it. He went through twists and turns in the egg, and his vitality was almost exhausted.In the end, his uncle suppressed the rebellion and took his father's place as the dragon's throne.His uncle made friends with Orfield and gave the dragon egg to the great human sage. He didn't have any hope at first, but he didn't expect that Orfield actually spent 30 years to revive the egg and let him break the shell.

During the 30 years by his side, Perseus had only a faint consciousness. In the boundless darkness and emptiness, Offield has been using his own magic power to cultivate dragon eggs. His breath has always surrounded him, and his voice It kept echoing in his ears.He can't hear everything or understand everything, but he remembers the breath and the voice.

After he broke out of his shell, he spent less than ten years with Orfield in real life.

But those were the happiest days of his life.

Oldfield was only in his 50s when he died. As a great human sage, he died too early.

Perseus still remembered that it was an ordinary morning when Orfield suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma while eating breakfast, without any warning before.At that time, he was still young. Although he had the inheritance memory of the dragon clan, the inheritance memory was not complete. Although his mind was stronger than that of human children at the same time, it was far from mature.

He tried his best to calm himself down at that time, and immediately passed the news to his disciples who knew Offield.At that time, several of his disciples were already strong at the level of a great magister second only to the great sage, but no one could see the reason why he suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma.

In just three days, Offield weakened in a coma.Perseus has been guarding by his bed, and the dragon's extraordinary hearing allows him to clearly hear the heartbeat of Orfield, which is getting weaker and slower.

He was sober for a while, and he didn't tell his disciples why he suddenly became like this so that they could avenge him for him. Instead, he distributed all his research results and collections to him and his disciples, and even sent them to his uncle. I got the news to take him back to the Dragon Clan.

Then he passed out again.

Perseus continued to stay by his bed, his mind was so empty that he couldn't think about anything, he could only instinctively listen to the "thump, thud, thud" heartbeat until the sound became weaker and weaker.

Until the sound finally stops.

This is not the first parting he has experienced.As early as before he broke out of his shell, he had already lost his parents.But this is the longest and most unforgettable parting he has ever experienced. Until now, he can still hear the sound of his heartbeat in his dreams, and then he will wake up suddenly because of the sudden disappearance of the heartbeat.

The unruly dragon was finally drunk.

His wine bottles can no longer be placed on the table in an orderly manner, and have been thrown everywhere.The wine bottle that was knocked down by him before he finished drinking spilled all the wine on the table, and he lay on the table, letting the wine soak his hair and stick it to his face in a mess, with eyes like The look of a cub that just lost its shelter.

They are obviously dragons over 3000 years old.

Via couldn't see the face of his principal at the moment, but could only feel that the alluring aura had temporarily weakened.Immediately seized the opportunity to approach him, held the end of the staff with one hand, and carefully poked him with the end inlaid with the fire spar.

Perseus raised his head in a daze, saw the familiar staff, and instinctively reached out to grab it.

"Let's go!" Via decisively threw the staff down the passageway, and saw the drunk man also sprinted down.

After a while, he heard the muffled sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Well, this time he was so drunk that he even forgot to change back into a dragon shape in mid-air, so he just fell down.

Via shook her head and sighed, accepting her fate to take over from the principal to complete the rest of the work for the day.

Oh, yes, and a lottery.The principal's assistant opened the lottery drawing interface, clicked the draw, and saw that there was a familiar student in the drawn list—Ofield Chris, the 12-year-old second-level magician who just entered this year, and he remembered it very clearly.

"Hey, he and the great sage have a birthday on the same day, so lucky." The assistant principal said to himself.
