Wizard Immortal

Chapter 56 Support

A month passed quickly.

Outside a mountain ridge, a long line was slowly moving forward.

Their movement was slow and their composition was strange. They carried not only a large amount of supplies, but also many children and women. They did not look like a dedicated caravan, but rather a migrating group.

At the very front of the group was a boy wearing a black sleeve, who looked to be only a teenager. He was extremely handsome and surveyed his surroundings with a calm and composed expression.

"Judging by this, we're almost at the next city."

Walking at the very front of the procession, watching the knights gradually returning in the distance, Adir muttered to himself.

Now, more than a month has passed since we left the northern region.

They followed the old trade routes, traveling up and down the road until they reached the southern kingdoms.

As they approached the southern kingdom, some members of the original group began to leave, choosing a different route from Elwa and the others.

During this period, due to the departure of the nobles, the original team of more than two thousand people has now been reduced to just over a thousand, and their speed of movement is much faster than before.

"The first country we entered on this route was the Principality of Baron, a small country we are familiar with, and it has considerable power there."

Fular rode up beside him, a smile appearing on his face as he looked at the few signs of human habitation gradually appearing in the distance: "I have already sent someone to inform them that our people will come to meet us when we reach the next city, and will also help settle Lord Elwa in."

Hearing this, Adir's gaze sharpened: "Have you already decided?"

"Yes, this is the most suitable outcome." Fular nodded, confirming, "In previous years, most of our forces in the south were located within the Duchy of Baron. As soon as Lord Elvar arrives there, he can immediately inherit all of the family's forces there."

"We were well prepared there," he continued. "More than a decade ago, Lord Polya did a lot here to prevent this situation from happening today."

"In the Duchy of Baron, we not only have several small trading guilds, but Lord Poria also owns a count's title and several estates there, all of which can be inherited for generations."

"With these, even if the North is lost, Lord Elwar will still retain his noble status and can continue his new life here in peace."

A relaxed smile appeared on Fular's face as he slowly spoke to Adir.

This phenomenon is normal.

As nobles, in this chaotic and dangerous world, they would generally keep a few backup plans in order to ensure the continuation of their lineage and prevent the family from completely declining after a family disaster.

If this is the case for ordinary nobles, it would be even more strange for a great noble family like the Fakus family to have no backup plan.

So Adir wasn't surprised to hear this, but simply asked, "What does Elwa himself think?"

He looked at Fular beside him and asked this question.

After experiencing the Northland Rebellion and the death of his biological father, the originally cheerful Elva suddenly fell into a slump.

While Adir and Fular were busy dealing with various trivial matters and leading a large group south, Elva spent his days hiding in his comfortable, spacious carriage. He was either drunk with other nobles or flirting with some young girl in the group. He would find several women almost every night and waste all his time and energy on these things.

Those in the teams were happy to do so.

No matter how much Elwar lost power, he still had the fortune left to him by Count Poria to inherit, and he had the powerful knights Fular and Adir supporting him. For those nobles who had lost their lords, he was still a powerful ally. Now that they had the opportunity, they naturally fawned over him in every way, not only playing games and gambling with him, but also sending all kinds of women to his tent every night.

After more than two months, Elva was completely ruined. Not only did his already average physique become even weaker, but he also became addicted to gambling and drinking, living a life of debauchery.

Seeing this situation, Adir didn't say anything on the surface, but he was secretly shaking his head in his heart.

During this time, he learned a lot about his former good friend.

The other party was only of average ability in all aspects, and his will was weak. Without Count Poria's supervision and discipline, he became completely indulgent and did not inherit any of Count Poria's abilities.

Not only Adir, but even Fular, who had always been loyal to Count Poria, had completely lost hope in him and no longer had any expectations or illusions. He only intended to let him live a quiet and peaceful life.

Upon hearing Adir's question, Fular could only show a helpless expression and did not say anything more about the matter: "In the past hundred years, in addition to the power we have built ourselves, many members of the Fakus family have come to the south and have considerable power there."

"Some people became nobles in other kingdoms, some established large caravan guilds, and even I have a viscount title in the Duchy of Baron."

"With the help of people like us, as long as nothing unexpected happens, Lord Elva's life will be fine from now on, and he can live out his life without any worries."

"Well, for Elva now, this kind of life might not be bad." Standing aside, listening quietly to Fular's story, Adir looked into the distance and said noncommittally.

The procession was still slowly moving forward.

However, in the center of the procession, thanks to their excellent eyesight, Adir saw a young girl with disheveled clothes emerging from Elwa's carriage, her forehead damp with sweat.

Seeing this, Adir frowned slightly, feeling somewhat disappointed in his former friend.

"Actually, compared to Lord Elwa, for the entire Fakus family, you, Adir, are the most important." Looking at Adir beside him, Flar sighed: "The North is gone. The once-prosperous Fakus family, while not quite fallen, can never be as powerful as before. It's still far from its former glory."

"Even if Lord Elvar hadn't become like this, it would have been very difficult for him to restore the glory of the Fakus family."

"Our only hope lies with you."

Fular raised his hand, sat on his horse, and continued, "The power of wizards is immense. Legend has it that some powerful wizards can even single-handedly wipe out a city. It is a terrifying power that mortals cannot withstand."

"If you can reach that level, it's not impossible for the Fakus family to not only restore its former glory, but even go further."

He smiled at Adir.

Hearing this, Adir was taken aback, then gave a wry smile and chose not to reply.

Seeing his expression, Fular shook his head and added, "Actually, you don't need to go very far. As long as you become a wizard, the entire Fakus family, including me and Elwa, can benefit. The benefits you gain will definitely exceed your imagination."

"We will all support you so that you can go further on the path of a wizard."

At this point, a hint of awe appeared in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face: "This has been the practice in the past."

"The existence of wizards is not exactly a secret among the great nobles."

"In the past, whenever someone with wizarding talent appeared in the Fakus family, all the family members would work behind the scenes to help that person go further."

"Even though we have lost the North, our support for you will not disappear. Although it will certainly be less than before, it should still be of great help to you."
