Magicians themselves possess special abilities and are also at the top of the power structure. Except for special reasons, this group is generally wealthy. Most of them have private mansions that function as part-time workshops.
Female magicians - witches prefer high-rise buildings such as towers, while male magicians are yearning for atmospheric designs with sufficient floor space such as castles. Restricted by their respective titles and economic conditions, the specifications and functional perfection of the mansion also vary.
Not exactly the same.
Baron Gilles de Rais is quite wealthy. He inherited the property and land from his ancestors, and a few years ago he also inherited a rich inheritance from an extinct relative. It is not as rich as a company that can rival the country, but it can be regarded as a wealthy family.
In addition, unlike other nobles, the Baron regards waste as a virtue and shows off his wealth as an obligation. He carefully sets his own consumption expenses, so that the Baron has never been in a state of making ends meet.
Sufficient capital and a planned and restrained consumption concept. The Baron who possesses these two advantages can definitely be among the top three richest teachers in the National Academy of Magic.[
Having said that, the Baron is also a human being with curiosity and hobbies, so it is normal to invest some money, time, and energy into something that may not be used in a lifetime and is purely personal interest.
"There is freshness in life and living."
The baron held up the tea cup, and the dense steam entered his nose. He carefully distinguished the proportions of vanilla, strawberry jam, and black tea in the aroma, and said with some intoxication and joy:
"Day after day, repeating the same life will gradually make people become numb. There may be one or two people who can find changes in the same place, but most people will gradually lose the pursuit of the beauty of change. That's why. We
It is necessary to transform life from a static state to a changing dynamic... What do you think, Miss Zhen?"
"Uh...it does seem that way."
The beautiful girl in the evening dress gave a somewhat stiff answer, and the baron noticed that the lavender eyes contained not the embarrassment caused by the difficulty of communication, but the distress of linking up after understanding.
Are you comparing yourself with someone you know, and are you annoyed by the difference in attitude towards life?
The baron nodded to the side as he became more interested in this little girl who was hiding a side that no one knew about.
A belt-shaped spiny tentacle picks up the teapot and fills the teacup with water. It has no limbs and head, leaving only a ring-shaped mouth full of inverted triangular sharp teeth at the middle root - like a specially enlarged version of the vertebrate starfish in the ocean.
The familiar is standing
The waiter beside Roland, wearing a small white apron with a semicircular pocket and a strange shape, was so inconsistent that it seemed to sense Roland's gaze. For some unknown reason, his green-blue body instantly changed into
A bright red body color.
(Difficult, could it be that you are shy?!)
Cold sweat broke out on the "girl's" forehead, and she hurriedly swallowed a cup of black tea to calm down.
Incredible, the taste is quite good, and it is unexpectedly consistent with the style of the baron's glass greenhouse.
The cool breeze at night raises the fragrance of flowers, and together with the fragrance of tea, it enters the heart and spleen, making people intoxicated. Looking around, there are exotic flowers and plants collected from all over the world, showing their graceful figures under the illumination of magic lamps.
Posture. Looking up, you will see a huge stage of stars and moon hanging above your head.
"Changes in life, changes in heaven and earth, microscopic changes, macroscopic changes...?"
A soft murmur escaped from the lips and flowed into the Baron's ears. Les laughed in the resonance of emotion and understanding.
(She is indeed a good girl.)
When he saw the maid named Zhen for the first time, a kind of paralyzing shock erupted from his brain and the deepest part of his soul. Rice, who had not experienced this feeling for a long time, was almost dizzy.
It's not the appearance that is beautiful, but the inner noble temperament and intellectual wisdom that are most attractive.
There is no mistaking it. Even though she is wearing a maid uniform, she can taste and appreciate the layout of the garden carefully, and then understand and analyze it. As a magician, the most important thing is this kind of meticulous observation, and
Qualifications that breed innovation. Knowledge can be strengthened through learning, but talent is hard to come by.[
(She doesn’t look like a girl from an ordinary family... It’s such a pity to be a commoner. If she were a magician, she would definitely have a place in history.)
In the past, there were two such women who had the same outstanding qualifications as the girl in front of them. As mentors, Rice and the principal were full of expectations for them to blossom their talents, but in the end...
"Guest...Your Excellency the Baron?"
Feeling strange that Les suddenly became motionless while holding the cup, the girl asked curiously.
(What a gaffe.)
Realizing that he was distracted, the baron secretly blamed himself and drank tea to cover up his embarrassment. After a moment of regaining his composure, the baron asked:
"Zhen, what do you think of researchers who deviate from the norm?"
"Well?"
"It's not that the evil heretics who abuse their power believe in the Mother Goddess like us and are convinced of God's love for the world. In order to explore the truth and break the established framework so that people can live a better life, they are regarded as heretical and evil by conservative forces. In the end
A magic researcher who was abandoned by people and the Mother Goddess."
After a moment of sudden realization, the girl fell silent. The baron stopped asking questions and slowly rubbed his hands under the table.
"Someone said this to me in the past."
The girl's words that seemed sad and somewhat understanding brought back the baron who was blaming himself for his rashness.
"If intelligent life wants to progress, the last thing it needs is ethics and emotions. Now that the goal has been determined, if you pin your progress on these essentially illusory things, you will only end up destroying yourself."
"This statement...well, it is certainly insightful, but..."
The baron shook his head, as if the heat in his belly had been poured with cold water.
As a person who explores the truth, after confirming his belief, he will do everything possible to find the right path. However, this statement also implies that all conservative forces that oppose him must be eliminated without mercy. It is tantamount to going from an extreme.
The other extreme, thus sowing the seeds of strife.
Maybe he is a very sad person, so he sees things this way.
Just as the baron thought so, he saw the girl nodding and then shook her head.
"He also said that specific knowledge or intelligence, even just a little bit, when used at the right time, may change the entire world in an instant, such as a huge golem that can fly in the sky and rush into the enemy's formation, instantly destroying the entire city.
Super explosion that leveled city
Techniques, using floating techniques to lift huge rocks to high altitudes without air, causing them to fall, using huge impacts to cover the sun with smoke and dust, making the ground cold, etc... It may be a ridiculous idea, but there is no such thing.
Who cares, but once it happens..."
The baron was a little shaken. This was a situation he had never imagined. When the girl said this, he had to admit that it was indeed terrible. After a moment, he leaned forward and asked in a low voice:
"So, they...these researchers who are exploring new 'principles', did they do something wrong?"
The girl smiled evilly and declared in the most formal and solemn way: [
"How could it be? If even searching for the truth becomes a mistake, then where is the truth?"
At this moment, Baron Rice was completely obsessed with the girl Zhen pretended to be Roland. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users
