The middle-aged man was Rhine Mutters, the head of the Mutus family which Cohen belonged to. He was one hundred and five years old this year, and even the oldest person on Earth had already turned white at this age. However, Rhine had a lifespan of three hundred years.

Rhine looked at Link again, then he looked at the dried broth on the ground and frowned, "I've already sent someone to get the best doctor in the Wind City." The original quota for the Battle God's College entrance exam was prepared for you, rest more, rest well, and don't let the adults worry, "he continued after pausing for a moment," As for your mother, you have to persuade them not to write to your father about this matter, as he is already under too much pressure in the army, don't let him get too distracted. When you grow up, you should know that the consequences of getting distracted there will be severe, and the clan won't be able to bear the brunt of the second generation's death. "

Linke nodded, full of worry.

What's more, the Moutts' family had an even more serious weakness, which was that the second generation's mortality rate was too high, resulting in an enormous inheritance fault.

Rhine had eight sons, all following Rhine's example and joining the army after reaching adulthood. The three of them died in battle early on, and three of the remaining five people had extraordinary talent and had successfully stimulated their energy to become professionals. Originally, everything was going in a good direction, but six years ago, in the last large-scale war between the Empire and the Dragon Clan, all four brothers had died in battle, with the exception of Cohen's father, Jason. This was a huge blow to the family that was already struggling with every step. Fortunately, Jason's powerful strength as a High Rank Giant Strength had been recognized by the military as an influential high ranking military officer. Otherwise, it would be hard for the Murters family to maintain their reputation as a large family.

"Alright, Cohen. Your mother is here. I'm leaving." Rhine stood up and looked at Link again. He gently stroked his golden hair and said, "You are still so young, don't worry. There's still a lot of time."

He knew better than Cohen what time meant to the family, and he could imagine how much this old man who stood alone to protect the family from wind and rain would have to endure. He felt that there was a strange connection between him and this old man, and he felt that it was kinship.

"Father, how is Cohen?"

A young woman, who had abandoned all her elegance but was still as beautiful as ever, met Rhine at the gate of the yard.

Nothing serious, the urgent training should have caused the energy explosion and injured the organs, but I've already seen it, it's not a big problem, "Rhine was pleased, for this was the first time since she had refused her offer to let Jason retire," I've already sent for a doctor, so there's no need to worry too much, "she continued after a moment of hesitation," In ten days time, the War God Academy will open up the competition for the entry test in Wind City, so for this period of time, it's hard for us to beat the other six families in the fight for the three places.

"Thank you, father, for your concern about Cohen." The young woman's anxious face softened, and she bowed to Rhine.

Rhine frowned slightly, then sighed, "Selina, I won't say anything more about Jason, the family is in a difficult period," Rhine paused for a moment, "I will write to ask him to come back, as for whether or not he will return to the army, the family will respect his personal wishes."

The woman who was called Selina bowed again.

"Cohen is the hope of the family," Rhine said firmly, "You should also know the difference between a spellcaster and a fighter," Rhine was a little agitated, "Before he came into the family, a spellcaster of all attributes had never appeared." Cohen is the hope of the family, "Rhine said firmly," You should also be aware of the difference between a spellcaster and a fighter, "Rhine was a little agitated," Before he came into the family, a spellcaster of all attributes. You know, I will always pay attention to his progress from time to time. A weak but continuous stream of wind type energy was poured into his room, which may have been the reason for his condition. Although I was angry that he ignored the crazy training of his own body, I was gratified that he had started to think for the clan, even though the academy quota wasn't that important to us. Selina, he, has grown up. "

The young woman was a little dazed. Perhaps in her eyes, Cohen was still that little boy who had ran into her arms to act like a spoiled child.

"That's right, he's grown up. In half a year, he'll be studying alone in the imperial capital," the young woman said sadly.

"No, he won't be alone," Rhine's face was a little gloomy, "This time he woke us up," he thought of the bowl of broth, "the family can't afford to lose Jason, and so we also can't allow any accidents to happen to Cohen, who has become the most outstanding representative of the third generation. I think he needs some loyal companions, as well as an elder who can take care of him at any time." Rhine looked up at Selina, as if asking for her opinion, "I plan to let seven old Cohen go."

"Seventh Uncle?" "No one will doubt Seventh Uncle's strength, but Seventh Uncle's temperament is a little different. Should Third Uncle or Fourth Uncle …"

"No, Serena, you don't know him. Of all the old guys, he's the one who has liked Cohen the most since he was born, it's just that he's not good at expressing himself. Don't worry, he'll take care of him, you go and see him, I'll be leaving first."

Ce'Nedra saluted silently after Rhine left.

Her elegance, her natural generosity, her warmth and love, were in line with all the fantasies of a perfect mother in his mind, and the unconcealable love in her eyes made him feel even more warm. He looked at her, a little dazed.

"What's wrong, son?" The young woman caressed his cheek. The latter's face was pale, "Are you still in pain?"

Rincewind shook his head. He thought that the young woman had always cared for Cohn, who might have died. He was just a substitute for him, but he wanted to be her son.

"No, mother, Doctor Kama just said that I will be fine. I just need a few days of rest to fully recover. You know, I can still be as lively as ever, without any differences."

Promise me that you won't train anymore during this period of time, "the young woman was a little worried," You are already excellent enough, my son. In the entire Wind City, you are the best, even in the entire family. As for the remaining three public evaluations, it's just a front. No commoners would be able to obtain them, and with our family's current resources, it's very difficult to compete against the other six families. It's just a show. It's not your fault. You're just too young. "

"I know, I already know mom, don't worry, I won't do anything stupid to make you worry," Link said with a serious face, looking like he was about to swear an oath, "I've already thought about it, in two days when I'm better, I'll go with Daisy to the Lan Mountain to hunt and catch a few Wind Rabbit to help you decorate the small garden, there will always be some living things that are more vivid, plus I haven't left Wind City for a long time."

"Our Little Cohen has grown up," The young woman's expression was somewhat complicated, both pleased and reluctant, making it hard for Lin Ke to understand, "Going out is also good, but this time, you have to bring more guards with you. Although Lan Shan is not far away from the Wind City, it is not close, and the family's current situation isn't too good.

"In a few days, your grandfather will ask your seventh grandfather to come to your side, and he can also instruct you on your cultivation in the near future. Although there are no spellcasters in the family, your seventh grandfather's strength is superb, so it's enough to answer some questions for the current you."

"Grandpa Seven?!"
