Arcane Lord

“You don’t want honor? Why? Honor is the most important part of an aristocratic family, and the benefits it can bring are beyond imagination.” Lady Anastasia Asked with a puzzled face.

Any noble family will build a small exhibition hall to put the honors that their ancestors have won in it, and show them to every visiting guest. Usually the family with more achievements is easier To win respect, it is also a tool for Great Family to compare each other.

Because these honors represent the contribution made by a noble family to society, the first point for ordinary people to distinguish the good from bad is often the honor, which shows how important this seemingly illusory thing is .

“Hehe, you may have forgotten that before I became a nobleman, I was first a mage, mastering the power of Arcane. Most people treat mages with awe, and they are afraid that they cannot understand Naturally, there is no respect or love for the supernatural power of, and as the mage’s level increases, the gap will become deeper and deeper, so honor is completely dispensable for me, it is better to replace it with reality. Real benefits.” Andre gave the answer with a chuckle.

From the moment it was born, the profession of Master is destined to be unable to be understood and accepted by ordinary persons. In their view, the ability to manipulate flames, lightning, storms, control human hearts, and create illusions is nothing like gods The difference is that only Tiancai with superior intelligence can understand the complex theories contained in Arcane and trigger powerful magic through sounds and gestures.

Even in the most advanced era of ancient magic civilization, there is a huge gap between the status of civilians and wizards, even more how now the number of wizards has dropped sharply, and each one is similar to rare animals. It is even more difficult to cultivate. In the eyes of the ruling class, even a thousand ordinary persons do not need to be a mage.

It is precisely because of this attitude and various privileges that the mages and the civilians are in a completely opposite class. In the eyes of the residents of Linton City, the mages are almost a symbol of danger, and they hold hands. A legal license to kill can take a person’s life if something goes wrong.

In the records of the Mage Association, nearly half of the members have had a record of killing people on the street, and a few of them also used the powerful plastic energy Arcane to turn the whole street into ashes because of anger. A tragedy that directly caused dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries.

For such a group of unscrupulous superpowers, how can ordinary residents not be afraid, how can they not be afraid?

From the moment he entered the city, Andre was aware of the status of the mages in the city, and he also knew that unless the judicial immunity was cancelled, the mages would always be impossible to be respected and loved by the local residents. .

Perhaps all of this was the plan of the nobles back then. On the one hand, they gave the wizards Supreme social status, and on the other hand, they placed the wizards on the opposite side of the working people. In this way, although they can enjoy There are so many privileges, but it has lost the most important foundation. It can only be attached to the aristocratic system, and it will always be impossible to obtain real rule.

Of course, those archmages who are really immersed in Arcane’s research have never thought of going to rule Linton City. They don’t have enough time to learn magic knowledge and do experiments. The intrigue behind politics.

Only those low-level mages who find that they can no longer advance on the path of magic will shift their focus to politics in an attempt to obtain a hereditary title for future generations.

However, most of these people have a normal aptitude. Even if they get the title of nobility, if their offspring cannot become mages or formal apprentices, they will quickly decline after two generations and fade out of people’s sight.

In fact, Linton City does not yet have a magical family in the true sense. On the contrary, there are several more famous families in the northern inland that are rich in mages. It is said that they have the bloodline of Ancient Era, and they have The lost arcane skill.

In the following time, Andre and Lady Anastasia discussed some precautions about salt drying in the sea, and finally selected a remote island far away from the route. Seventy of the terrain is desert and rock, and the remaining 30% is a small oasis. It is estimated that feeding two to three thousand people is not a problem.

There is water and sufficient sunlight. It basically only rains in June and November. It is the most ideal place for the construction of salt pans. As long as the salt ponds are dug, the deserts during the day At high temperatures, the first batch can be produced in just over a week.

In order to ensure that the secret would not be leaked, Lady Anastasia directly burned the parchment which recorded the method of drying salt. At the same time, Summon Steward and several henchmen hurriedly removed from her manor. Seven hundred serfs were taken out, and they went out to sea with tools and grain, and prepared to personally supervise them until the first batch of salt was produced.

As soon as her front foot was gone, Chloe put the sheep on the back foot. The old steward who stayed at the mansion could not deter the Eldest Miss at all, so he simply entrusted her to Andre. Anyway, the two of them The marriage contract has already been made, and it doesn’t matter if there is a “life”. Unmarried childbirth is quite common in the aristocracy. Early wiping between unmarried young men and women is a trivial matter in the eyes of the elders, as long as the child’s bloodline is not. The question will do.

Chloe is quite happy for the generosity of old steward. No matter where her fiancé goes, she will follow wherever she goes. She even sleeps in a bed at night, plus The temptation of the corset and stockings, Andre was so hung that he didn’t hold on, and he rectified this young and energetic girl on the spot.

But even so, cuddling and some intimate physical contact are inevitable, which made him rise in falsehood and didn’t sleep well for two consecutive nights.

After all, any man with a normal physiological reaction, holding a beautiful girl in his arms will have a strong impulse, especially when the two are married, and Chloe’s deliberate teasing, one night It is simply not the life of a normal person.

As a person who has lived for two lifetimes, Andre is quite open at certain times. For example, when he saved Dame Selena, without the slightest hesitation, he turned the other person into his own woman. There is no psychological burden when taking possession of the young widow Elsa.

Because these two women have grown up, they know what will happen after a relationship between a man and a woman, and both parties also enjoy this kind of exercise that is beneficial to physical and mental health. Not at all it is said that who suffers and who takes advantage.
