"I'm currently working in a textile factory in Liuli Province. It's pretty good." Lettice wiped her tears and slowly raised her head.
"Is that so? Has anyone bullied you?" Willett asked with a little concern. After all, with Letty's looks, she would be a stunning girl with a little dressing up. If the security was bad, then...
"Fortunately, no one bullies me. The counties in Liuli Province are under strict control, and no one dares to mess around."
Willett thought back to the soldiers in the mining area. Their strict discipline had once surprised him greatly. Now he thought that other areas would not be too bad either.
"That's good."
The room fell into silence for a moment. Willett wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. He could only silently look at the girl in front of him, the former apple of his family's eye.
Looking back, years ago, Lettice was a sought-after and envied young lady among Lurna's senior management. Now, she was reduced to working in a textile factory. The disparity was probably beyond his uncle's imagination. After all, she was only in her twenties, unlike him, who had already experienced many hardships and had become more open-minded.
"Can alchemy and transcendental sequence still be practiced?" After a long time, Willett asked carefully.
"Maybe. Times have changed now. The new way of training has changed a lot. People like us with less glorious identities are not allowed to enter the academy to study. We can only explore on our own." Lettice looked at the texture on the table. She is only at Magic Sequence 2 now, and this is the result of her own private exploration, which is very slow.
"It'll get better, take it slow."
"As long as the authorities don't prohibit it, I will eventually figure it out. Live a good life then and don't forget my childhood dreams." Willett crossed his hands uneasily, rubbing his rough palms against each other.
In this prisoner mine, all prisoners are forbidden to practice. Anyone found to have gathered extraordinary magic power will be punished, even if they were once high-ranking magic masters and high-ranking officials of Lurna.
Just as the two were talking, the brass clock on the table ticked and the soldier standing outside the door walked in.
"It's time to go." His voice was calm, as if he was already used to such tragic scenes that made people cry.
Willett supported himself and slowly stood up, speaking in a halting voice.
"Live well and marry into a peaceful family in the future. It doesn't matter if your last name is not Shelia, as long as you are safe."
"If you want your life to be stable, your uncle will be relieved..." Willett was taken out of the house by the soldier.
Lettice looked at the thin figure limping under the scorching sun, and her eyes gradually filled with liquid.
Once upon a time, this uncle was also a genius in the family, extremely handsome and suave, and was regarded by Rulna as the future Sequence 9 and the pillar of the Shelia family.
But now, everything has dissipated like a dream, turning into a harsh and painful reality.
