Chapter 40: I am the Son of Fate!
A voice interrupted John’s thoughts. At this moment, the tension in the atmosphere between the two of them had also disappeared because of Kurkas’ kind smile.
John raised his head. It was the principal’s office in front of him.
“Don’t be nervous. Sit down first.”
Just as John was about to take the initiative and seize the right to speak, the principal laughed.
John had no choice but to sit down. He could not figure out anything through the principal’s expression.
“Principal Kurkas, I think the special talk should be about Scola and Kurt. Am I right?”
He was the first to ask this question to divert the principal’s attention.
Of course, if it was possible to do so.
However, Kurkas’ next sentence was enough to shock everyone.
“Hmm… actually, I saw it all. It’s just that I didn’t make a move.”
As the principal of the Gusteco Mage Academy, he actually allowed the students and teachers to have a duel?
Hearing this, John’s felt anxious, and he nodded slightly.
Basically, he could guess what Kurkas wanted to ask.
It must be during the time when he casted the Dragon Slayer Magic, he exposed the aura of the dragon race, so Kurkas wanted to know about this.
However, what Kurkas said next confused John for a moment.
“Is the Grand Mage Founder still alive?”
The question directly made John speechless.
Wasn’t Grand Mage Founder the one who once led humans and dragons to fight against angels and demons! ?
Why would Kurkas ask such a question? ?
John had no choice but to tell the truth.
“I’m sorry, Principal Kurkas, I don’t understand what you’re saying…”
Seeing John’s puzzled expression, Kurkas smiled and then let out a long sigh.
Then, he looked out of the window.
“Your Dragon Slayer Magic is very similar to the person I’ve seen before.”
As soon as he said this, John’s brain began to work non-stop.
The change in events was too sudden.
John did not know what to answer, so he could only wait for the principal’s next words.
It is because his understanding of Grand Mage Founder was limited to the books in the castle.
Hadn’t he already passed away?
Why would he ask him this question?
Seeing John’s dumbfounded expression, Kurkas also laughed. From the beginning, he had never seen the young man in front of him as a dragon race or a giant dragon.
According to what he knew, the dragon race was favored by the God of Magic and their affinity with elemental magic surpassed all other races.
Even the rulers of the two major psychic domains, angels and demons, were not as proficient as the dragon race in elemental magic.
However, because of this, the God of Magic had set a commandment for the dragon race.
No matter which level the dragons reached, their affinity with elemental magic would never reach 100% .
Moreover, although the dragon race was extremely powerful, the population number was extremely low due to various circumstances.
The limit of the dragon race was the ancestral dragon who was still alive.
Unless it was a child born to a foreign race, there was a very small chance of reaching such a level.
This information was what Kurkas had learned when he was investigating the psychic domain.
The psychic domain.
It was a place that was born at the beginning of the world. It was even tens of thousands of years earlier than the dragon race that was born in the real world!
Therefore, this was the reason why Kurkas did not suspect John after the battle ended.
Of course, John, who had never been to the psychic domain, did not know about these things.
“The person you are talking about, could it be…”
Seeing that Principal Kurkas was unwilling to speak, John initiated to ask.
“Everyone knows that I once killed the two-headed dragon by myself and defended the border of Gusteco.”
“But who knows that I have witnessed myself a demon dragon that is even more terrifying than that one?”
Hearing these words, John was stunned. Could it be that the danger that Principal Kurkas faced back then wasn’t just the two-headed dragon, but there was actually a demon dragon?
After Kurkas’ narration, John knew a shocking secret!
The Grand Mage Founder might not have died. He was still alive in this world!
Moreover, it was very likely that he had reached the realm of eternal life!
Who would have thought a human could actually reach the realm!
“Do you mean that the Grand Mage Founder was the one who saved you back then and used the same Dragon Slayer Magic as me?”
John was extremely familiar with Dragon Slayer Magic, which he had obtained through the system reward.
The Dragon Slayer Magic was, of course, very pure.
Kurkas nodded and agreed with John’s words.
“That’s right. For this reason, I have traveled to various countries. Although there are some who have learned the Dragon Slayer Magic, they are only superficial.”
“Your Dragon Slayer Magic have made me think of Grand Mage Founder. Your magics are almost the same.”
“Could it be that you really do not remember anything about Dragon Slayer Magic?”
John didn’t see any ill intentions in Kurkas’ expression. On the contrary, he was kind to him.
That was why John heaved a sigh of relief. No matter what, it should have been smooth sailing this time.
However, how was John going to answer this question?
Was he going to tell him that he got it by stealing the princess?
Of course, John wasn’t a fool, so he wouldn’t say such a thing. Therefore, he made up a story.
“Principal, I was born in a kingdom. This magic has protected Amy and I for as long as I can remember. As for who my parents are, I still don’t know. The only thing I know is that Amy is the only family member I have left…”
When Kurkas heard John’s story, tears welled up in his eyes.
Because the story that John had told was so true!
In short, John hadn’t known who his parents were since he was a child. Amy and him had been abandoned by their parents. When they were six years old and the enemy was about to attack Amy and him, he had comprehended the Dragon Slayer Magic and killed all of them.
As for why he comprehended it, John didn’t know either. It was like a legacy had suddenly been instilled in his mind. He could use almost all of the Dragon Slayer Magic at will.
However, there was a limit, and that was that he could not teach it to others.
Such a melodramatic story, but when Kurkas heard it, he wiped his eyes and stood up.
“Poor child. I didn’t mean to make you recall the sad things. I’m very sorry.”
Regarding John’s matter, Kurkas basically already had a plot in his mind.
The key was that the timeline also happened to match. The time when the mage who had used the Dragon Slayer Magic to save him was exactly ten years ago, like what John said.
At this moment, Kurkas managed to connect the whole matter together.
Could it be…
that John was the inheritor of the Dragon Slayer Magic?!
It was the opportunity that the Grand Mage Founder had left for the human race before he died!
Kurkas had read the prophecy of the Grand Mage Founder in the books of the human race.
In the future, there would be a son of fate who would save the human race from untold miseries!
Therefore, Kurkas said something that confused John,
“John, you are the son of fate of the human race that was chosen by the Grand Mage Founder!”
At this moment, John was confused.
What?
I was actually the son of fate of the human race?
However, as a time traveler, John knew very well that he was a pure-blooded dragon!
