Chapter Seventy-Three: I'm Still Alive
Speaking of which, this is a cliché story.
There was once a man who wanted to revive his weakened family.
For this reason, he gave up his lover and married a woman who could help his family, so he was also infamous.
But so what, for a man who is clear about his goals and directions, stigma and ridicule are not obstacles to his progress.
Judging from this, maybe this man can be called a hero or something.
But, in fact, he can only be regarded as a fool with delusion.
At the very beginning, he discovered that he had no talent for magic, and that he could not inherit the magic that his family was so proud of. Even the naturally weak body once became a burden to their own development.
Under his own means, he forced the family to spend part of his savings, and his weak body was cured. And at this time, his uselessness has also become an obsession in his heart.
Under the banner of revitalizing his family, he began his journey of "saving himself".
Then, in despair, he found that not only did he have no talent for magic, but also had a terrible talent for combat—even if his weak body could be cured, the foundation of his body could not be cured.
He finally understood a sad fact - he was just an "ordinary person" with a little cleverness, an "ordinary person" forever and ever.
In desperation, he began the life of an ordinary person - he also understood that what he wanted was not what he began to get - and his wife started a new life in the fief that his family had just changed.
Then he was compensated by fate.
His wife really loved him with all her heart and bore him a daughter and a boy. Although the new fiefdom was not as large and rich as the previous one, it was better to be simple and peaceful.
Then, fate began to charge interest.
The wife has been in a state of weakness for unknown reasons after giving birth, and even began to age at an unimaginable rate. She fed him 20 years old when she gave birth to her daughter and 25 years old when she gave birth to her son. He was only 30 years old when he died, but he looked like he was fifty or sixty years old—his hair was dry, his complexion was yellow, and his skin had lost its luster and elasticity.
He went out of his way to a professional to ask why his wife was like this.
The conclusion is:
"Your wife is an excellent mother for a family of magicians, and it is easy to give birth to offspring with good magical talents, and you are really lucky."
"But ......"
"However, because you don't know enough knowledge, you don't know this, your wife's time limit for giving birth to daughters and sons is only 5 years, and in these five years, you have not given your wife enough nutrition, and these five years are just a time to breathe a sigh of relief for your wife's body."
"That's it?"
"It's just an introduction, the key is to give birth to your son, and his talent should be very high, which is equivalent to squeezing life for the mother, especially your wife, a weak mother. This is how your wife has exhausted her life potential. ”
"I—I've bought her tonic or something!"
"This is not something that can be fixed with some random tonic, and it left the root of the disease when your wife gave birth to a daughter."
Then, the son who he saw as hope was accidentally killed by his daughter while studying the family's magic with his daughter. The funny thing is that when his son died, he watched from the sidelines.
Just like providence, the original family had verified an alchemy experiment in the past that there was no danger, but suddenly there was a strange reaction, and the experiment deviated from the record......
He was left with his daughter, who originally planned to give his son a magic mark when his body was about the same, but when he was disheartened, he gave it to his daughter.
Then, after a series of thoughts, a series of heart knots became his dark thoughts under the distortion of alcoholism.
"This is the will of God, and the will of God is that my daughter Ilia will revitalize the family in my place."
Then, he began to restrain Ilia with the strictest requirements, and completely manipulated Ilia according to his own wishes.
But isn't this also a sign that he has great expectations for Ilia?
Now, what did he see?
The daughter who repaid her great expectations, the country servant who was summoned, destroyed her fiefdom like this?
