He wore dark blue robes and his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, displaying his scar-filled forearms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite having the appearance of an old man, this person seemed to be brimming with strength and vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence was commanding, emanating an aura of power and authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the man gazed at Adam with his piercing blue eyes, the youth's body couldn't help but involuntarily tremble a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the might of a Rank 3 Magus!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We finally meet, Adam.\" Edwin got up from his seat and walked out of the gazebo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was close to 2 meters tall. This caught Adam by surprise. He couldn't help but stand there in a daze as he watched the old man walk toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edwin's hair was thick and pure white in color. It was tied into a knot and cascaded down his shoulders. His beard, equally white, was properly trimmed and well-groomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man stood before Adam and carefully observed him for a good minute. He slapped the youth's arms and then lightly punched his abdomen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good!\" Edwain burst into a loud peal of laughter. \"Very good! This is how a man should be - strong and muscular!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes then narrowed as he glanced at Biden. \"Unlike this twig. Always buried in the library. Hmph!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher!\" Biden had an extremely embarrassed expression on his face as he kept glancing between Edwin and Adam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He screamed inwardly, Why must you embarrass me in front of the new guy?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edwin just ignored his apprentice. He then glanced at Adam, who was still looking at him in a daze, and asked with a chuckle, \"Why are you so quiet? Never met a Mana Vortex Magus?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam snapped out of his daze and respectfully replied, \"Forgive me, it's just… your presence is just vastly different from the other Rank 3 Magi I've met.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oho?\" Edwin was intrigued. \"Apart from Berger, who else do you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Elrod Firvele of Baja High Forest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, an elf from Baja, eh?\" Edwin tried to recall if he'd ever met any elf by that name. \"No, I don't think I've met him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you know old man? Uh, I mean Magus Berger?\" Adam asked with bright eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, I know him, you fool!\" Edwin harrumphed. \"My precious daughter was in his care for the longest time. I am very grateful to that asocial gnome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the old man's eyes softened and he placed his right hand on his chest before deeply bowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I am eternally grateful to you, Magus Adam. Thank you for saving Elia.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam and Biden were astonished. Both for different reasons, of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter glanced at Adam and thought to himself incredulously, So this was the Herbalist that cured Teacher's daughter! But… he can't be older than I am… So young and already such great attainments in Herbalism! Incredible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew just how severe his Teacher's daughter's illness was. Many Herbalists had tried to cure her but failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Adam was in a completely flustered state and he retreated a few steps. He couldn't accept the bow of a Magus who was far stronger than him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M-My lord, you don't have to do that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Edwin didn't care about how Adam felt. Despite his superior rank, this was the least he could do for the person who cured his daughter when countless others failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He truly admired this youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he was deeply indebted to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few moments later, he finally stood back straight. He glanced at Adam and grinned, \"Come, let us have some tea. We have much to talk about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trio walked to the gazebo and took their seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edwin suddenly glared at Biden and stated, \"What are you sitting for? Who is going to pour us tea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Yes, Teacher.\" Biden nodded with a defeated expression and poured the herbal tea from the ceramic teapot and into the cups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the youth was pouring the tea, Adam's attention was involuntarily drawn to the small man-made pond beside the gazebo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pond was serene and he could see colorful koi fish lazily swimming within. The pond was bordered by water lilies, adding a touch of beauty to the already breathtaking scenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This place is nice… So peaceful,\" said Adam as he found himself subconsciously relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is a good spot to practice mindfulness,\" replied Edwin as he gracefully lifted the cup and took a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then glanced at Adam and said with a warm smile, \"I visited Moon City after Elia recovered, you know. But at the time you weren't there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam thought for a moment and then nodded. \"That's right. Aunty did mention about your visit. Back then I was still inside the secret plane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\" Edwin nodded. He deeply glanced into the youth's jet- black eyes and added, \"I heard about what happened in the Federation during the war with the orcs. You kids have truly gone through a lot of hardships.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering the friends that he had lost during the war, Adam's lips curled up into a rueful smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes flashed with reminiscence and grief as he replied, \"New beginnings are often painful endings in disguise. Such is the Way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edwin was taken aback. His eyebrows rose in surprise and he nodded. \"You are truly a wise child.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a sip of tea and then stated, \"I see Berger has already instilled in you the philosophy of the Way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam smiled. \"Yes, something like that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\" Edwin nodded in gratification. \"As a Magus, you must embrace change and recognize that suffering and loss are a part of the natural process that leads to growth and new opportunities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Life and death, joy and suffering are part of the natural cycle,\" Adam softly said as he glanced at the tea in his cup rippling as a gentle breeze blew by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not for the harshness of the cold night, how can we look forward to the warmth of sunrise?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Marvelous!\" Edwin sincerely praised from the bottom of his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he talked to Adam, the more he found himself admiring the youth. Even Biden was the same. He couldn't help but be moved by the youth's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't believe that the Adam sitting in front of him was the same person that was acting like a hooligan and rudely speaking to him in Grand Bazaar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edwin stared at his empty cup for a long time. Then, his flashed with brilliance and he seemed to have come to a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Adam, you're coming with me to the Tower of Daybreak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1111,"2026-05-29T04:44:34.705Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.309Z",1,"novelbin.me","c501fd0f9b307b4289a66022978dfb3268e0b3c94ccc07548b4a1aa1b2e245eb","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-353","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-351",1765,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-cover.jpg"]
