When I turn back into a man [Western Fantasy]

Rosen returned to his manor.

This manor is called Gosling Manor, where Rosen's mother once lived.

After he became a prince as an adult, he rejected the territory granted to him by the old king, but only hung a false title, and then moved to this manor alone.

He has been away from the capital for many years, but the loyal old housekeeper in the manor still manages the manor in an orderly manner, waiting for the master to return home at any time.

"Master, you are back."

The gray-haired old housekeeper Sid saw Rosen and saluted respectfully.

Rosen nodded, "Grandpa Sid, the key to my mother's room, please send it to my room later."

Sid: "Good sir."

He was a little puzzled, and didn't understand why Lawson suddenly thought of asking for the key to his wife's room.

After all, since his wife disappeared, her room has been sealed off by the old king.

It hadn't been opened until Lawson moved into the manor.

After Rosen returned to the room, he changed into a light nightgown, and Sid knocked lightly on the door, and walked in with a delicate box, "Master, here is the key for you."

Lawson motioned for him to put the key on the table, and then the old butler left silently.

The light outside the window gradually dimmed. Lawson crossed his legs and sat on the armchair, squinting at the small box.

After a long time, he exhaled lightly from his nasal cavity, reached out and picked it up.

This small box was originally forbidden by magic.

However, when Luo Sen held it in his hand, the restriction seemed to disappear, allowing him to open it easily.

Inside the box lay a golden key inlaid with gemstones on a black velvet cloth, which looked like a work of art.

Rosen picked up the key, got up and opened the door, and walked to a room at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

The key was inserted into the lock with a slight click.

The room that had been sealed for more than 20 years was opened again.

Lawson paused for a second, then stepped into the room.

He was already prepared to be covered by the dust that hit his face, but when he opened the door, he found that the inside was as clean and tidy as if someone came in and out to clean it every day.

Lawson frowned slightly.

He felt the fluctuation of the magic element.

Under the influence of magic, all the items in this room stayed in the same state as they were 20 years ago.

He closed the door smoothly, without staying too long at the door, and walked quickly through the living room to the study without looking sideways.

The moment he pushed the study away, a picture suddenly appeared in front of his eyes——

A woman with long blond curly hair was sitting at the desk, writing something with a quill pen. She seemed to have sensed the movement behind her, and then she stopped what she was doing and turned her head slowly.

Lawson subconsciously held his breath, his pupils constricted slightly.

But the moment the woman was about to reveal her face, she shook like water streaks and then disappeared.

Lawson was silent for a moment.

The glimmer of expectation that had just risen in my heart disappeared in an instant.

"Time imprint..."

he said softly.

The old king had told him before he died that his mother had left him a coming-of-age gift in the study in her room.

It's just that so many years have passed, but Lawson has never taken it away.

"Don't hate your mother, Lawson."

When the old king was dying, he lost the majesty of the past, and his voice became ethereal and empty.

He said slowly: "Socia...may not love me, but she loves you deeply, you are her child..."

Old memories rolled back.

Luo Sen closed his eyes, then withdrew his mind.

Everyone didn't understand, he never hated anyone.

After the time mark dissipated, the original appearance of the desk was also exposed.

Lawson walked to the desk and found a small square box made of pure gold inlaid with all kinds of gems on the desk.

He picked up this delicate and small gold box and put it into the space ring.

Immediately, he exited the study in a hurry, and his eyes did not rest on any items.

Until he closed and locked the room again, and retreated to the corridor.

It was only then that Lawson realized that there was a thin layer of sweat on his back at some point.

"It's really embarrassing..."

He laughed at himself, his figure stretched out by the moonlight outside the window at the end of the corridor, making him look a bit lonely.

But when he turned around, the expression on his face returned to his usual appearance.

Lawson returned to the room, put the key back in the small box, and asked Sid to put it away.

Then he took out the small golden box that he had taken and placed it on the table.

He didn't want to take this so-called gift of coming of age.

But after his 25th birthday, things began to change in him.

For example, originally he could only slightly perceive the existence of magic elements, and could not use any magic.

Slowly, he found that his elemental affinity was significantly improving.

Later, he was even able to use some basic magic, and it was all magic elements.

If the members of the Magic Association found out about this, they might immediately arrest him and send him to be dissected for research.

For another example, he also found that he was becoming more and more lethargic. Although he was physically strong, he was listless and yawning all day long...

Moreover, he, who has never liked to dream, began to dream frequently.

In the same repeated dream, there is an ancient language coming from the sky, long and mysterious.

He couldn't understand, but he was deeply impressed by the pair of huge, loving golden vertical pupils that always appeared in his dreams.

This made Lawson doubt himself.

Later, he found some clues in some old events recorded in the court, and then contacted what the old king had said to him, some words about his mother, and gradually had a guess.

His mother, most likely.

It is the legendary dragon family.

This can explain why, as a human being, he can perceive magic elements while possessing a powerful sword energy.

After all, in the historical records of the mainland, the magic of the dragon clan is the supreme existence.

It can ignore all element restrictions, and has a unique dragon language magic.

And the drowsiness that appeared in him was also answered when he fell into a dream again.

That was the dream he had last year, on his 29th birthday.

In the dream, that ancient and mysterious voice was replaced by a gentle female voice for the first time, gently explaining his current situation to him.

It was only then that Rosen realized that the adulthood of the dragon race was not the same as that of the human race.

Already 29 years old, he started the second metamorphosis in his life, which is the adulthood of the Dragon Clan.

But because of his half-human, half-dragon bloodline, during the transformation process, he would consume a huge amount of his body, so he would feel tired and sleepy.

But the female voice didn't tell him what changes would happen to him after he passed through adulthood, and since he woke up from that dream, he didn't dream anymore.

So when the symptoms of lethargy began to affect normal life, Lawson couldn't help but think of the coming-of-age gift left by his mother.

It was also at this time that he realized the true meaning of "adult gift".

I'm afraid that the things inside are specially prepared by his mother for his adulthood.

only……

"Since you're leaving, why leave such a thing behind..."

Even if he survives adulthood, it doesn't matter if he survives unharmed or becomes stronger.

Not that no one wanted him.

Luo Sen stared at the small box that he came back to take out, and after observing it quietly for a long time, he temporarily lost interest in opening it.

He got up and took out a bottle of spirits from the side wine cabinet.

After pouring himself half a glass, he stood in front of the dark night window and drank it with his head raised.

In the next few days, Lawson was a bit busy.

The news of his return was quickly known by the nobles, and various gatherings and invitations came one after another.

So much so that he didn't pay much attention to Tong Zhan's situation for a while.

But after the enthusiasm of these nobles dissipated, he thought of the young man in Sunset Town.

So after a reception, Hawkeye was called and asked what Tong Zhan had been doing these days.

Because Tong Zhan's situation was a bit special, Luo Sen didn't let Hawkeye follow him closely, but just asked them to pay attention to Tong Zhan's movements when he was a boy.

"My lord, Mr. Tong Yao will go to the fighting arena to participate in the cold fight every night these days."

Hawkeye paused, "I have never had a defeat, and I have already entered the dark list..."

Lawson: ...

His face sank instantly.

After finding a suspected figure of Tong Zhan in the fighting arena that day and making Hawkeye follow him, he took advantage of the opportunity to find out why Tong Zhan came to the fighting arena so late.

As a result, the whole process of Tong Zhan's previous game was found.

However, because Tong Zhan bought spectator tickets, and he participated in the competition after being provoked, Luo Sen thought he was just interested in the Cold War, so he came to take a look.

And registering as a player and participating in the competition was just an accident.

It turned out that he didn't expect that he was going to play the game?

Lawson is very clear about the rules of the Cold War, and he also knows the kind of people who go there to participate in the competition. That place is not at all suitable for a pure white rabbit like Tong Zhan to mix in.

He quickly made a decision, and rushed back to Sunset Town now to arrest this messy little guy.
