Rebirth: I can easily control the end-of-the-world game

With Cosi's explanation, Feng Lan understood the curse.

"So, have you tried to find the wizard who cast the curse and ask him to remove it?"

Cosi shook his head. "We looked for it hundreds of years ago, but it seems our ancestors never found the wizard. When the Declan family was once prosperous, we also asked the kingdom's great wizards to solve this problem, but those wizards were all unable to find a solution."

"In order to avoid the curse, and because our family was so small, our ancestors brought their dwindling members to this remote town with a low concentration of magic power, hoping to reduce the curse's intensity. However, they didn't expect that the curse would still be in effect after six hundred years."

Feng Lan interrupted Kesi and asked, "Can the kingdom's great wizard make a curse last for six hundred years?"

Feng Lan is not from this world, so she doesn't know how much magic power is needed for such a deadly curse to last for so long.

Kesi shook his head, thought for a moment, and answered Feng Lan hesitantly, "The Grand Mage... probably can't do it. Although the Grand Mage couldn't remove the curse for the ancestors of the Declan family, he cast a blessing magic for the Declan family, wishing us eternal health, hoping to reduce the power of the curse..."

"Therefore, the Declan family has been healthy for generations, but unfortunately, the curse has not been weakened. All people with Declan blood will still die at the age of fifty."

Feng Lan consoled him, "After being cursed, did anyone else die before the age of fifty?"

"This..." Kesi was a little stunned. He stopped and recalled the contents of the family tree. The shocking list of names and the age of fifty, which was like bad news. There were no exceptions. "No, everyone died at the age of fifty."

"Then perhaps you can be a bit bolder. After all, if you have an accident before the age of fifty, you won't die."

Feng Lan's words inspired Kexi from another perspective. Her eyes lit up again, as if she had found a new direction in life.

"Ah...ah...Master Lan, you are truly a unique mage. You solved my worries with just your words!"

Kexi was very happy. She couldn't help but hug Feng Lan and said, "Yes, maybe this is not a bad thing before I turn fifty."

Comforted by Feng Lan, Kexi took her for a walk around the town with brisk steps.

To the right from the lord's mansion is the potion shop. Below it is a blacksmith who usually makes shower heads, axes and other things for everyone. Below is the library and there is a stream.

Going around in a circle, there is a tavern in the south of the town. Cosi said that the people in the town would gather there on rainy days, and occasionally the wizard would show up at the party.

At the westernmost part of the town, the tall purple-black tower with a pointed roof is the residence of Master Nero Manyinde.

In addition, there is a carpenter, a livestock store, and a fish shop in the town that sells fish and fishing gear.

Overall, the town of Minderland is able to be self-sufficient. Similarly, the pace of life is very slow and there are not many outsiders. Therefore, every household is familiar with each other and some have even been good neighbors for many years.

That's why, before he even returned home, Cosi learned from his neighbors' conversation that two strangers had come to his house.

Feng Lan followed Kexi around and found nothing. The town had beautiful scenery and the people were simple and kind. Apart from being closed, there was no sign of any conspiracy.

Perhaps, we have to start with the genealogy of the Declan family.

"Can I see the Declan family tree?"

After returning to the lord's mansion, Feng Lan asked Elhua, who was the lord of the town and the current patriarch of the Declan family. Well, although due to the small population, this position was somewhat dispensable.

"Of course, Master."

Elhua readily agreed and took Feng Lan to the basement where old things were stored.
