As an otherworldly realm was about to invade Blue Star, Ren Ming used a system to fake a spiritual energy recovery, thus creating a modern supernatural civilization.
A girl who was framed and...
Mrs. Lawes sighed.
"Dear Tiffany, do you know the patriarch of the Morris family?"
"Is that Artemiza Morris, known as the 'Immortal Patriarch'?"
Tiffany quickly figured it out.
Of course she knows.
As the patriarch of one of the four great wizarding families, the Morris family naturally attracts attention.
When she first appeared in public, almost all media outlets praised her highly.
The powerful knowledge of spells was secondary, the most important thing was her young and beautiful face that was revealed.
She and her daughter Lilia standing together look more like twins than mother and daughter.
Rumors circulating in the community even exaggeratedly regarded her as an immortal human.
After that, the wizard's reputation soared.
Many aristocratic young men and women are willing to ignore their country identity for the sake of their genes.
Send out warm marriage invitations to their family members.
It's simply trampling on Tiffany's values.
"Yes, it's the 'Immortal Chieftain'. In fact, except for her, all wizards have a longer lifespan than ordinary people."
Mrs. Lawes confirmed Tiffany's guess.
Her expression was hesitant, as if she was having trouble saying what was next.
But after taking stock of the surrounding environment, he finally made up his mind.
This store is very famous in their circle, and the security and membership system are very strict, and there will definitely be no leakage of information.
She placed her hands on the table and spoke seriously.
"I got the news from my husband that General Austin is still alive."
"What!!!"
Tiffany screamed, and when she realized it was inappropriate, she immediately covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
There is only one "General Austin" who can be called without any prefix.
That is the grandfather of the current head of the Adeline Austin family.
In the wars of the last century, he won many victories for Britain, sweeping across Europe with his wolf-tooth sword and making numerous military achievements.
In modern times when warfare tends to be based on hot weapons, his sword can still make enemies on the battlefield shudder.
He was the brightest rising star in Britain at that time.
pity.
At the height of his military success, he retired due to a relapse of an old illness and died shortly afterwards in his country estate.
Only the young Duke of Austin was left, and the British Empire was in turmoil after the war broke out again.
Mrs. Lawes nodded.
"Only a small number of people know about this now, but it will soon be known to everyone."
"The Austin family has no intention of keeping this secret any longer."
It should be said that if it weren't for the Gregardi Alliance accident, this news would have been all over the place.
"By now, he should be over 130 years old, right?" Tiffany's eyes were filled with confusion.
Even if the other person is alive, he is hooked up to a ventilator and is lying on the bed, just a bag of bones.
It's no different from being dead, right?
The reason why General Austin will always be missed by everyone.
A big part of the reason is that he died at his most perfect moment.
It was the turning point when Britain went from prosperity to decline.
He is the undefeated god of war, the ever-sharp British sword!
And now, the hero's most embarrassing old age is about to be revealed to the public...
"Why make such a decision and bring down his perfect reputation for nothing?"
"Why did he fake his death back then?"
Tiffany had a bunch of questions she wanted to ask, which eventually culminated in these two.
Especially the second one.
Given the other party's status, there is no need to worry about his achievements surpassing his master.
In fact, he has already been designated as the next prime minister!
Why?
Didn't he know how much Britain needed him as a leader at that time?
"It's useless to ask me." Mrs. Lawes winked playfully.
"However, I heard that General Austin plans to stand on the stage again, and he should be in very good spirits."
At least it won't be as miserable as they imagined.
There are even rumors that wizards retain the souls of their dead ancestors.
Waiting to revive one day after the magic tide.
Mrs. Lawes pursed her lips and smiled, and there was no need to tell the other party these words.
She gently stroked the fine lines at the corners of her eyes with her right hand, and her voice was filled with both sighing and regret.
"That's the magic of wizards, Tiffany."
"I'm already thirty-three years old, and you're still young. You don't understand how important beauty is to a woman."
As ordinary people, no matter how well we take care of ourselves, we cannot escape the traces of time.
But wizards can.
"Beautiful appearance, strong body, eternal life..."
"This is easy for wizards, but it's something every one of us dreams of."
"I don't believe you really don't have any thoughts at all."
"I..." Tiffany wanted to retort, but didn't know where to start.
She doesn't want it!
Before Mrs. Lawes could finish her words, she looked up and stared into the girl's eyes.
"Mrs. Lida, who hasn't arrived yet for the tea party, has a second son who recently obtained a fruit that, after eating it, can control fire."
"More and more people are gaining power now. If we stand still, we're moving backwards!"
She shook her head dejectedly.
"I don't think running away will make us any safer."
Put aside your own selfishness.
She will not be complacent because she is afraid of unexpected accidents.
Her mother's family made their fortune by relying on the dividends of the great voyages of discovery.
The ideas passed down from her parents told her.
We cannot give up conquering the ocean just because we are afraid of the unknown dangers in the ocean.
Wizards are not a profession that suddenly appeared. They have existed on Blue Star for hundreds of years.
Judging from the magic technology they provided, the other party has never stopped researching the uses of magic.
From ancient times to the present, the fact has been kept secret shows that nothing serious has ever happened.
The disaster three days ago was truly an accident.
Tiffany lowered her head and fiddled with the cake in her hand, her expression unclear.
After a long time, no one spoke again.
"well."
This was the umpteenth time Mrs. Lawes had sighed.
The topic reached a dead end again.
Is she no longer suitable to get along with little girls?
"Let's talk about the latest gadgets. What's everyone busy with? Why aren't tea parties happening as often?"
Mrs. Lawes changed the subject.
Only after she finished speaking did she remember.
Recently, the circle has been flooded with news about wizards and extraordinary people.
The extraordinary people gathered in Britain, and everyone was busy recruiting helpers, so they had no time to do anything else.
Mrs. Lawes frowned in annoyance and was about to change the subject.
After thinking for a long time, she finally realized it.
There is no other topic. Now everything we talk about will turn to wizards.
At this moment, Tiffany took over the conversation.
"I just returned to Britain recently, so I don't know as much as you do."
Her eyes flickered with an ambiguous light, then quickly returned to normal.
"But didn't the wizard promise to provide Britain with a lot of undisclosed magical technologies?"
She suddenly took the initiative to bring the wizard forward.
He showed no resistance at all to topics related to wizards.
