The Primordial Wizard

Chapter 1: Freedmen in the 8th block

   "Clang!"

   "Clang!"

   The sound of heavy ironing sounded, the fire in the house was strong, and the steaming Luo Menghei's face was slightly red. He was naked, his strong bronze muscles, and his hideous scars quivered regularly with the iron strike.

   The red-hot wrought iron deformed a little under his movements, and the standard iron sword blank gradually formed.

   Opposite him stood a boy who was about ten years old. He used iron tongs to pick up the fiery red iron sword embryo and threw it into the stone pool. The cold water and the fiery red iron sword embryo blended, and a large mist of mist instantly vaporized.

   Luomeng picked up a dirty towel from the shelf, rubbed the sweat on his face and body, and said to the little boy:

   "Ace, father, I'll quench my thirst in the tavern on the east side of the street. When you come back, you have to polish the sword blank, or be careful of your ass."

"I know, I know."

   Without raising his head, Ace skillfully picked up the blank sword and threw it on the stone with sparks still remaining.

   "I don't care if you go to drink, don't fight with others when you get drunk like last time. Not only did my mother and I have to go to the municipal square to pay a fine, you also got twenty lashes."

   "You stinky boy," Romon's black face rose even more red, like an old cat with exploded fur.

"That time it was a provocation by someone else. Ulu insulted your grandfather's grandfather, citizen Nar. Your ancestors followed the great city builder Ronamus and escorted the people from the hunt of the ice devil and passed the thirteen trials. , Came to the promised land of the graceful goddess, and established a rich and powerful Medemus city-state."

   Romon breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly: "We are not ordinary freedmen, my son, you must remember that we are the descendants of citizens and we have the honor that we must maintain."

"Yes, of course the honor of the ancestors must be maintained. But the wallet at home is also very dry. We need to control our anger and invest our energy in efforts to regain citizenship, such as letting me read and read instead of hitting this **** thing. Sword blank."

   Ace replied calmly.

   He lifted a hammer that was almost half his height, and beat the blank of the sword "clang-dangling", smoothing the surface of the blank gradually.

   Luo Meng opened a somewhat dry mouth, trying to say something but couldn't say it.

   Looking at his calm and busy son, he sighed, turned and left to go out, muttering, "I see."

   Ace picked up the sword blank from the iron stone and walked to the whetstone.

   The sound of sharpening the sword "嚯嚯" sounded rhythmically, Ace sharpened the sword blank skillfully, but his mind went back to three years ago.

   He was reincarnated from the earth. He remembered that he had just passed through the time when the world was spinning, and he was in a daze when he was sucked into the mother's womb. He only awakened the incomplete memories of the previous life when he was seven years old.

   High-rise buildings, a constant stream of vehicles, computers and smart phones for entertainment, all have gone away and can no longer be touched.

   The memory of the two lives merged. He had a high fever. Thanks to the meticulous care of his mother in this lifetime, he slowly survived the side effects of the memory fusion.

   Little children don’t know much, but they can speak the lingua franca of this area anyway. Having a whole family is a serious local resident, not a black household.

   After three years of conscious understanding, listening to Romon's bragging, listening to his mother telling myths, and not letting go of every bard's singing performance, he finally understood the world.

   There seem to be gods in this world. They live in the invisible and untouchable mountain of Kaya.

  Medimos, my city-state, is the promised land of the goddess of grace in the southern part of the Sarria Peninsula. The king of the city is the son of the goddess of grace and the founder of the city Ronamus.

   Since there are gods, there should be extraordinary existence.

   Ace thinks so, and always pays attention to surrounding phenomena.

   He found that the nobles of the city-states are indeed far superior in strength, speed, bounce, and reaction ability. Ordinary people, including soldiers of the city-state, cannot be compared with the nobles of half-old children.

   In the inaccessible wilderness outside the city, I heard that there are many monsters wandering, with all kinds of extraordinary abilities.

   Ace used children's talent for asking why, and asked many people how to be like aristocrats.

   The answer is that nobles are the blood of gods, born far beyond ordinary people, they are the rulers of human beings designated by gods, and mortals cannot become them.

   A world where transcendent creatures are certain to exist, but destined to be a mortal, Ace is a bit unwilling.

   But his mentality is good. He is in a low position and has too few contacts, so the information he can get is extremely limited.

   Only by entering the middle and upper levels of the city-state can you get more information and have more opportunities.

   Even if it doesn't, it may not be impossible to study their extraordinary secrets by capturing wandering monsters and even drawing blood from the nobles.

   Ace's goal gradually became clear, to become the upper-middle class of the city-state, that is, the citizen.

  Medimus city-state is a young colonial city-state, built only a hundred years ago, full of vitality, and has the ambition to actively expand abroad.

  The city-state is surrounded by barbarian tribes, wandering monsters, far away from other civilized countries.

   The most recent civilized countries are all in the northern part of the Sarria Peninsula, so this is a very martial-state and a city-state with a spirit of expansion.

The city-state of Medemus is the promised land of the graceful goddess Medea. His direct lineage, the son of God Rhonemus, rules here. It is the top of the city-state pyramid, followed by the nobles. Citizens, free people and slaves.

   As for how to become a citizen, Ace listened to his father's rumors many times. There are three conditions for a free citizen to become a citizen:

   One is literacy, the other is a low-level public office for more than three years, and the third is a merit equivalent to ten people.

   If a citizen fails to meet the above three items after three generations, the fourth generation automatically loses citizenship.

  In other words, Ace’s family declined in Romon’s generation and changed from a citizen family to a free citizen family.

   Romon is a good city-state boy with a burly figure. He has a good sword and shield fighting technique, he has prepared his own weapon and armor several times, joined the army as a heavy infantry, cut the heads of more than a dozen barbarian warriors, and killed several monsters.

   The only drawback is that his brain is not smart enough to learn words. Until the age of thirty-five, he failed the exam and eventually lost his citizenship.

   He also lost a series of preferential treatments for citizens, the right to the most favorable tax rate, the right to reduce crimes, the right to annuity, the right to participate in political power in the citizen assembly and the 500-member assembly.

   can't live in the first block with the best public security, and can only move to the eighth block in the south of the city, relying on the city-state and residents to fight for a living.

When Romon was young, he worked hard to inherit his citizenship. Until he completely lost his citizenship and almost spent the wealth left by his ancestors, he did not consider marriage. He and the freedman Marina of the 8th block, Ace’s mother, looked right. Settled down.

   Over the past ten years, Romon has also been in his forties. He has gradually become a skilled blacksmith and has his own stable home in the eighth block.

   He loves to drink, he always spends all his savings at home, so he has no financial resources for Ace to read.
