Chapter 570: Pitiful

In Beauxbatons' auditorium, a discussion on the distribution of inheritances began right after lunch. The update was the fastest, however, the meeting started a little faster than expected, but it ended just as quickly.

The whole meeting took about two or three hours from beginning to end, and Madame Maxim had to temporarily suspend it, stating that the follow-up meeting would resume shortly after.

There is no way, many forces have their own reasons, and while they express their opinions, there will be some small frictions from time to time. If no one stops you, you'll have to draw a scene on the spot to have a wizard duel.

Of course, if you want to say whether there will really be a fight, it may not be that a group of quarrelsome guys seem to be reckless, but in fact, they are all human spirits, where will they really fight?

But let's be honest, if no one has an overwhelming power advantage, it is absolutely impossible for such a meeting to come to an outcome that is acceptable to everyone.

At this moment, Maca, who had just finished the meeting, was walking on the path in the garden. He breathed in the fresh floral air and admired the colorful flowers around him, and couldn't help but feel comfortable for a while.

"Sir, why didn't you speak just now?" Fanny, who was following him, asked, "Is it because you knew it was going to be like this?" ”

"No, how could I have expected it to be as noisy as the auditorium before?" "I just understand that with a world-class inheritance distribution like this, it's certainly not something that can be concluded in a day or two. Today is just the beginning......"

As he spoke, he paused for a moment, then spread his hands again and continued:

"And you see, Madame Maxim mentioned the alchemy contest again, she probably wants those families and various other forces to gradually get used to this proposal, so that they can be mentally prepared when the plan for the distribution of the event is officially proposed in the future."

"So...... Are you going to take control of the venue for the event and gain more traction? Fanny said thoughtfully, "Well, Nicolame's alchemical legacy...... It's very tempting to think about......"

"Well, there may be a method of refining the Philosopher's Stone in that legacy...... Who knows! Maca shrugged her shoulders and said, "But whether you have it or not, everyone has to treat it as if it were a 'being.'" Otherwise, if you miss it, you will regret it. ”

"Elixir of life...... Is it? Fanny pursed her lips and sighed with some regret, "I don't know if it's really 'ageless'...... How old was Mr. Nicolamay when he made it? ”

Fanny seems to care more about the efficacy of "immortality" than "immortality". In this regard, Maca couldn't help but secretly shake her head, even if this beautiful workaholic, she would still inevitably be troubled by her appearance and youth!

"You can ask the old butler when you go back," said Maca, smiling, "and if you can't find a chance, I can find time to ask for you...... However, when it comes to the Philosopher's Stone, I don't really want it as much as everyone else. In fact, I'm just here for the right to play this time, and as for the 'dominance' you mentioned, I'm not that interested in that. ”

The more he delved into magic, the more he understood the wonder of life. Between life and death, there is a great mystery, and death may be a door that leads wizards to explore more fundamental magic. This was conveyed to Maca by Dumbledore on the occasion of a bystander.

That world was so enigmatized by all awakened wizards that Greenwald tried to follow it at the cost of an unusually terrible scourge.

It is precisely because of this that Maca knows in advance another direction that she can reach in the future.

But, as most people feel, death is always terrifying. Even if you may not be afraid, you will still be stuck at the feet of death because of nostalgia for this world.

That's why everyone wants to get a Philosopher's Stone like Nicolame, so that their lives can continue as if they were unlimited.

Of course, Maca hasn't lived enough, but it belongs to his life, so there is still a lot to spend! Now, he is not so fanatical about a philosopher's stone, because he wants to try to cross the line called death himself, like Dumbledore.

Look at Nicolame and his wife, didn't they choose to give up eternal life in the end? Although no one knows the truth about why they made such a choice, in any case, it is a fact that the Lemay couple took the initiative to die, which was what Dumbledore himself said back then.

Creatures are born and die, and the reason for this is not quite clear, but it seems that it is most correct to face death in the end.

Therefore, whether or not you can get the final method of making the Philosopher's Stone, let's go with the flow!

As far as Maca thought this, Fanny felt quite incredible. Who cares about immortality and wealth?

But this is Maca's business after all, and how he decides is naturally up to him.

Fanny just thought about it, and put the matter aside for the time being. Because she suddenly remembered another question in her heart, it was a good time for the two of them to walk in the garden at this time.

"Mr. McLean, I heard...... You and Miss were classmates at Hogwarts, weren't we? ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

When Maca heard this, she couldn't help but be a little puzzled, wondering why she suddenly asked about this.

"That'...... You ...... to Mademoiselle," Fanny said, pausing for a moment, "No, I mean...... What do you think of Willy? What do you think of her? ”

"Uh...... What how? ”

Maka suddenly felt a little strange. It would not be surprising if such a question were to be asked by Mr. Blois, who was his precious daughter, after all. But if this Fanny asked, it would be a little sudden.

He remembered that Monsieur Blois, when he had introduced Fanny to him, had mentioned that the young housekeeper seemed to have left the house long ago. I'm afraid the relationship between her and Willy is not close enough to ask about these things, right?

This Fanny is extremely serious in her work, and even a little stereotypical, not like an abrupt character.

"I'm sorry, Mr. McLean." Fanny hesitated a little more, and then said softly, "I know this question is a bit sudden, but I still want to bother you to tell me...... The head of the family has always been worried about Willy's future, and he doesn't know if he can find someone to entrust him with his life. ”

"Did Mr. Blois ask you that?" Maca looked at her and asked hesitantly.

"No, that's not the case...... Fanny immediately shook her head, "it's not on my mission, it's my own question. In fact, many people in the family are worried about this. Willie didn't like to talk since she was a child, and she didn't even have a friend, and she couldn't even smile...... There have always been rumors in the family that Willy was given some kind of black magic ......"

Maca had heard Willy mention some things about the past, and she thought that this bloodline curse was not suitable to explain to others, so very few people knew the actual situation. Unexpectedly, even the Blois family was just a few strange rumors.

"Hmm...... Unfortunately, I'm a friend of Willy, but I'm just a friend. Maca paused and said quite seriously, "There is never such a possibility between me and her as you imagined. ”

"Really?" Fanny pursed her lips and sighed vaguely, "If that's the case, then there's no way." It's just a pity...... When Willy was a child, I hugged her a few times! At that time, I was still thinking that there was finally a girl younger than me in the family......"

Her feelings for Willie are afraid that it is a feeling of treating her own sister. A sister who is delicate and beautiful, but has a lot of regrets, will always make her feel deeply sorry for her as an older sister.

It is rare that many years after she left Fort Blois, she still has the matter of Willy's sister.

"Actually, this time Monsieur Blois has asked me to try to solve Willy's troubles," Marca comforted, "and I will do my best to do so." Whether Willy will become a normal girl, I think it's worth looking forward to. ”

"Resolved?" Fanny hurriedly asked, "Mr. McLean, do you know why Willy became like that?" ”

For her question, Maca did not answer casually.

"Actually, Mr. Blois knows, doesn't he?" He said, "This is what he tried to solve, and he asked me first." If you want to know the specifics, I think it's better to ask him...... I'm not in a position to reveal it on his behalf. ”

"Head of the house...... Is it? Fanny was stunned, "Okay...... Well, I won't ask any more. Thank you for explaining this for me, Mr. McLean. ”

Seeing that she saluted herself, and seemed to have a tendency to change back to work mode, Maca immediately waved her hand.

"Seriously, you don't have to be so reserved with me! If possible, I'd like you to be casual, it's a relaxation for both of us. ”

"No, how can this work," Fanny said solemnly, "for me, it's work, it's a task given by the family. ”

Looking at her insistent look, Maca had to sigh secretly.

He said no more, lifted his leg and walked on. From afar, he caught a glimpse of a striking silhouette of his back, apparently the big fat young master of the Hohenheim family. Just looking at his panicked look, it seems that something interesting has happened again.
