However, Lei Luo did not notice Wei’s strange feelings. He only felt that this girl was very persistent and worth nurturing.

In the future, if he left the Faroe Kingdom and groomed Wei into the next invincible ultimate mage, he would have left a powerful guardian for the Faroe Kingdom.

After living in the capital for more than twenty years, it was impossible to say that he did not have feelings,

“Senior, my father is sick again. He has aged so fast that his hair has turned white.”

After seeing the king return to the library, Wei’s strong eyes were filled with tears.

Lei Luo sighed and said, “Growth, aging, and death are the most common things in the human world. They are also things that must be experienced. Even the king, the general, and the marquis can not avoid it.”

He had seen the king’s aging.

If there were no accidents, another year and the king’s lifespan would end.

Wei’s sparkling eyes looked at Lei Luo and said in a pleading tone, “Senior, you must be able to do something, right?”

In the four years in the library, her cultivation had improved as fast as paper blowing in the wind. She was now a level-9 mage. This kind of cultivation speed was simply unbelievable.

Although it had a lot to do with the fact that she was a princess of the royal family and did not lack cultivation resources, the magic codex was top-notch, and her talent was not bad, it was still very fast.

Prince Ling, who had been cultivating at the same time as her, was now only a level-6 mage, three levels lower than her.

She knew that the reason for all this was due to her senior.

She even had a very hard-to-believe conjecture—Could her senior be that mysterious pseudo-ultimate mage?

Looking at Wei’s weak and helpless cry, Lei Luo’s heart softened.

He could harden his heart to anyone.

But facing this little girl who had grown up and lived with him for four years, he really couldn’t bear it.

“Your Highness, I’m just a student sweeping the floor in the Library of Hiro Magic Academy. How can I have such great ability? You’d better wipe your tears,” Lei Luo said as he handed over a handkerchief.

Wei took the handkerchief and wiped her face.

She didn’t say anything else.

Perhaps she was thinking too much.

How could senior Lei Luo be an invincible pseudo-ultimate mage?

Even if he was, he might not be able to save her father.

In the next few days, there wasn’t much of a smile on Wei’s face. It was as if she was in a state of depression. However, she didn’t slack off in her magic practice at all. Instead, she worked even harder than before.

In the blink of an eye, another few months passed.

The king’s health was getting worse. He was often sick in bed.

The seventeen-year-old Prince Ling began to step up to the stage and take charge of everything in the Faroe Kingdom for his father.

After a few years of growth, Ling had already acquired the necessary qualities to become a king.

Wei would go to the king’s bedroom every day to sit with him. However, she did not relax her magic practice.

In a short period of frugality, Wei had changed a lot, hiding a lot of things in her heart.

“Senior Lei Luo, I used to think that I could repeat my life every day, without any worries, without thinking about anything, without caring about anything. But now, I finally understand... It turns out that all of this is because my father is protecting me from the wind and rain. My father is sick, very sick. I’m really worried that my father will leave me, what will I do then... Sometimes, I think that it would be great if I never grew up.”

On this day, it was as if Wei had confided in Lei Luo for a long time.

She hesitated for a moment, then slowly entered Lei Luo’s arms, her face pressed against his chest.

Sensing Wei’s sadness, Lei Luo did not speak. He just let her hug him and listened quietly.

“However, I have thought it through now. Since I can not save my father, I will continue to work hard and continue to practice magic to become a truly powerful mage. In the future, I can protect my mother, protect my brother, and protect the Faroe Kingdom. This is my lifelong goal.”

Her tone was very calm, and her gaze became firm.

At this moment, Lei Luo could keenly feel that the spirit of Wei in his arms had been refined.

The magic power in her body had also become more active.

Sensing this, Lei Luo sighed in surprise. He had not expected that the changes in her spirit during this period of time had actually allowed her to touch the barrier of an elemental mage.

In other words, when Wei broke through to become an elemental mage, she basically would not encounter any obstacles. As long as she accumulated enough magic power, she would be able to completely step into the realm of an elemental mage.

COMMENT

Lei Luo estimated that in less than half a year, it would be enough.

...

Late that night in the king’s bedroom.

The king was lying on the bed. His face was old and his hair was white.

He was not even forty years old, but he looked like an old man in his seventies or eighties.

Beside the bed, Queen Lina was already sleeping on her stomach. She was wearing a cloak.

Ever since the king had been taken seriously ill, she had been by his side. She had also lost a lot of weight. Their relationship was very deep.

When the King ascended the throne, he had never married another woman. This was extremely rare in the Faroe king, and even in the entire history.

Just then, the door slowly opened, and a figure walked in.

It was not a maid or a mage guarding outside.

It was a distorted and blurry figure.
