Modier stood up and couldn't help but look more curiously and seriously at the lady with outstanding temperament in front of him. In those extremely light blue eyes and ice-like hair color, he did see some shadows of himself. , but he still couldn't remember, he couldn't remember his last name, he couldn't remember his experiences when he was young, he couldn't remember whether he had a family and descendants, he couldn't even remember where he had stopped and lived. ¡ª¡ªHe could only guess the identity of the "Victoria" in front of him, and asked tentatively: "How long have you been looking for me?"
"Six centuries." Duchess Victoria hesitated for less than a second, and finally made up her mind to tell the answer.
Modile's expression froze for an instant, as if he had heard a fantasy story. After a long time, the corner of his mouth trembled, and he stared at the "descendant" in front of him: "How long do you want to talk?!"
"Strictly speaking, it is five hundred and seventy-two years. Although it is not six centuries, it is not far away." Victoria took a breath. She knew how unimaginable this fact sounded to a client who had lost his memory. , but she came here today to solve the mystery surrounding her family ancestors. Except for the taboo "surname", it is best not to hide too much other things, "Ancestor, I'm afraid you don't even know that you are already here." How long have you been wandering around the world?¡±
"How is this possible!!" Modile suddenly raised his voice and pointed at himself in astonishment, "Six centuries, sixI"
Halfway through, the old man stopped suddenly and his expression changed rapidly. Victoria immediately became worried when she saw this. However, before she was about to speak to comfort her, the old man in front of her suddenly frowned and held her chin with one hand. The beard on his head looked thoughtful: "But then againsix hundred yearsI have experienced all kinds of weird things, does this seem impossible?"
Victoria: ""
It seems that the ancestor¡¯s ability to accept is much stronger than she imagined?
As he spoke, Modier's attention was focused on Victoria again. The old mage's brows were still unbrowsed and he seemed to be very worried: "I still can't believe it. According to you, wouldn't I have become an old man?" An immortal monster Of course, I usually live quite happily Haha, that's not the point. The point is that I don't actually know what happened to me. I don't know if those dragons told you the situation. My memory is a bit messy right now, and even my daily experiences are messed up, especially recently. In fact, I don¡¯t even know that I have any descendants I¡¯m sorry, girl, doesn¡¯t that sound a bit irresponsible?¡±
"Of course not," Victoria said immediately, "The Dragon Clan envoy has told me everything before coming, and I am mentally prepared. I am also here to confirm your situation and help you as much as possible - I still have I have many things to ask you.¡±
"Oh, of course, of course," Modier said repeatedly, then glanced at the curious onlookers who had gradually gathered in the surrounding streets, and then glanced at the "Adventurer Cabin" where he temporarily lived not far away. , a smile appeared on his face, "How about we go to the house first? This street with people coming and going is not a place to talk after all."
"Of course," Victoria nodded immediately, then looked back at Maggie, "Maggie, then you"
"I won't follow," Maggie shook her head before Victoria finished speaking and said with a smile on her face, "This kind of occasion is not suitable for an 'outsider' like me to make trouble around - Ke Lei and I Let¡¯s go shopping nearby. It¡¯s rare to be able to come to the hometown of the Dragon Clan, and I really want to look around and understand the history of this place.¡±
Victoria didn¡¯t say much, she just looked at Maggie deeply, as if gratitude showed in her eyes, then she nodded and walked towards the hut with Modier.
Looking at the direction where Victoria¡¯s back disappeared, Maggie took a long time to look back. She seemed to be talking to herself, and she seemed to be saying to the black dragon girl next to her: "It seems that the beginning is not bad."
The black dragon girl Coretta couldn't help but look back at this "distant relative" from afar. It was obvious that she was curious about Maggie, the "dragonborn". After all, although a large number of dragonborn came to Tallond for the "Assist in construction", but their main scope of activities is still in the coastal county area in the southeast. In New Agondor, dragonborn are rarely seen.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Coretta finally couldn't help but ask: "Are you friends with that Ms. Victoria? Is it easy for dragons and people to be friends in the Loren continent?"
Maggie looked at the pure-blood dragon she had just met. She knew that the other person was also a black dragon. In terms of blood, she and the other person were descended from the same "branch"."
"I have the same last name as you, but" Extreme embarrassment almost broke through Victoria's dozen layers of mental protection. The corners of her mouth trembled slightly, and she finally managed to maintain an expressionless face and said, "I was told Don't let anyone reveal anything involving your last name - it seems to trigger a 'memory gap' in you."
"Ah, ah, that's right, I remembered it," Modi suddenly slapped his head and said a little embarrassed, "I remember that Herago reminded me of this not long ago, saying There is a 'gap' in my memory system. Once key information is touched, consciousness will be interrupted and reset. Well, it was my omission."
As he spoke, he laughed, and it seemed that the awkward and stiff atmosphere before had faded a lot due to this episode: "Then let me ask something else What do you do? At home that should be considered mine. Family, what¡¯s the situation now?¡±
"Imainly manage, um, manage a lot of land, and many people rely on that land for their lives," Victoria said awkwardly, after all, she had never considered describing her ordinary life in this way before. and the people around me, "Your descendants are quite competitive in this generation. Apart from me, some of them have joined the army or run their own industries. Most of the young people are still studying. One of the most talented is me." My nephew, he is studying in the imperial capital"
Modier stared, feeling that all these things seemed far away from him. The sense of unreality came to him again, causing him to subconsciously mutter: "I am an old man who takes risks everywhere, how come I suddenly have such a thing?" A lot of descendants that sound very powerful?¡±
Victoria didn¡¯t seem to hear clearly: ¡°What did you say?¡±
"Ah, it's nothing." Modier quickly waved his hand and looked at Victoria with curiosity, "It sounds like this is not simple. You have industry and land, but I am even more confused. You are so ordinary." What do you do It sounds like farming? But it seems a little more powerful than that"
"Well, it's a little better than that," Victoria said with difficulty. She was really not good at communicating with people in this way, but at this moment she had to think quickly about how to explain her affairs to her ancestors, while making the other party not want to do anything about it. Thinking of the giant Wilder family in the north, "I don't personally manage the land, I just manage a large area of ??land, and I also manage all the industries on the land"
Modile listened carefully, but suddenly frowned, and the seriousness in his expression startled Victoria, who immediately stopped telling: "Ancestor, is there any problem?"
¡°You can¡¯t break the law,¡± Modier said suddenly without any clue, ¡°This is no joke.¡±
Victoria was confused: "Huh?"
"Although I usually wander around, I understand the laws promulgated by the empire and the policies announced by the Government Affairs Department," Modier continued to look at Victoria with a serious face. At this moment, he really seemed to be worried that future generations would go astray. The old man said, "Son, it is illegal to embezzle land and monopolize operations!"
Victoria: "?"
After being stunned for two seconds, she finally reacted and explained with great embarrassment (although it could not be seen on her face): "No, you misunderstood, I am only responsible for managing those things - the land belongs to the country, and the industry belongs to others. I'm just managing. Of course, we also have some family businesses, but they can't be called annexation or monopoly - everything is under the legal premise"
The Grand Duchess who controlled the entire Northern Territory was rarely at a loss in her life, but Modile gradually relaxed her brows. The old mage finally nodded and finally understood everything: "I feel relieved when you say that Ah, I I understand what you do, do you work in the Government Affairs Office?"
"Um" Victoria was startled, then quickly accepted this new idea and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I work in the Government Affairs Office - I have to go to the Government Affairs Office almost every day to show up, and sometimes I have to bring documents with me. Go home and deal with it"
"Then it's quite hard for you," Modier finally laughed again, even a little relieved in his smile, "But it's good for young people to work a little hard, because it is to accumulate for future life By the way, listening to what you said, Are you still an official in the Government Affairs Office?"
"That's it" Victoria nodded stiffly, "He's well, an ordinary administrator"
