149: save2 More Information
Magic? So there really is magic in this world?
Lu Lele felt an itch in her heart. Although the information the Earl had just revealed was a tiny bit voluminous, leaving Lu Lele stunned, she still keenly extracted the keyword.
Magic!
Lu Lele's mother, the White Witch, knew magic!
And the Earl said that the White Witch had passed her power on to Lu Lele.
Then, as the one who inherited her power, Lu Lele should naturally be able to use magic.
Magic that could turn an entire city into white sand!
What terrifying power that was!
If she could possess this power, she could thoroughly break free from the shackles of this sickly body and do whatever she wanted!
Lu Lele was completely captivated by magic for a short ti, but she soon cald down.
Lu Lele did not overlook the other content the Earl had spoken, or rather, she didn't subconsciously believe that everything the Earl said was a believable fact.
She keenly noticed that there was actually a contradiction in the Earl's words.
If the White Witch's initial purpose in giving birth to Lu Lele was to use Lu Lele as a vessel and one day possess her body, but she only changed her mind during childbirth, then why did she leave that teddy bear for Lu Lele?
The Earl had said before that this teddy bear was made stitch by stitch by her mother while she was pregnant with Lu Lele.
This conflicted with his current statent.
"Father, I have a doubt."
Lu Lele didn't hesitate much and chose to directly ask the Earl about the contradiction in his words.
She wanted to see exactly how the Earl would react.
As a result, the Earl was very calm and said:
"That's right. I lied to you before. That teddy bear was actually your mother's favorite toy when she was alive, not sothing she made while carrying you. I just wanted little Lele to know that Mom actually loved you very much, so I chose to say that."
Hearing this answer, Lu Lele nodded slightly, but she was still a bit skeptical and didn't fully believe the Earl's words.
Seeing his daughter nod, the Earl continued:
"I know Lele must be very curious about information related to Witches. In fact, Witches can also be created through artificial ans. White hair isn't the Witch's true characteristic, but one thing is certain: only after reaching adulthood can a Witch truly control her power."
"However, compared to Innate Witches, these artificially created Witches are not only very weak in power, but their abilities can only be maintained for five to ten years."
"It is said that in the past, God's Favorites were the focus of cultivation for various forces. However, in the last two centuries, fewer and fewer people have been granted God's favor, so cultivating Witches has gradually beco popular and is faintly becoming the mainstream trend."
"Many created Witches, in order to keep their power, also adopt thods similar to the White Witch. The specific ans are even more cruel. They, too, are Traitors to the Law."
"...You know so much information," Lu Lele couldn't help but interject a comnt.
The Earl sighed and said:
"These are all things your mother told . I am rely passing this information on to you now."
"I more or less understand my own background now. But I still don't understand why you sent to the noble school. Wouldn't that let more people know that I am a Witch?"
"Those who ought to know will know anyway. I just let more people know your identity and let everyone know that Earl Lu Dashuai's daughter is suspected to be a Witch. I muddied the waters, and then I used the excuse that you weren't adapting to life at the noble school to bring you back ho."
"This way, no matter which force it is, they won't easily move against you before you co of age, otherwise they will beco the target of public criticism. At the sa ti, it can also guarantee Lele's safety as much as possible."
Lu Lele vaguely felt that the Earl's explanation seed to make sense, but sothing also seed a bit off. However, she didn't delve too deeply into it.
She turned to tell the Earl about Zhang Lenglan and what she had said.
She thought the Earl would be very surprised, but he appeared very calm instead:
"Zhang Lenglan. She counts as soone from the Church... but I can't be one hundred percent sure."
"The Church's attitude toward Witches has always been ambiguous. However, as long as they aren't Traitors to the Law, the Church will generally try to win them over because they are accustod to turning people with mysterious powers into their own people."
"As for that leaf, there is a significant possibility that Zhang Lenglan is being deliberately mysterious. However, it is not ruled out that, as she said, it is a curse from a heretical sect. It needs to be handled carefully."
"Then, Father, should I cooperate with her?"
"I think it is fine. Lele, use her hand to test your own power and try to wield it. Don't worry, I will send people to protect your safety."
...
...
Lu Lele left the Earl's room, his incredibly serious and solemn voice from the end still echoing in her ears:
"Lele, today I am telling you this information, but I must also tell you sothing that concerns the honor and faith of our family."
"You are not yet an adult. When you co of age and can skillfully use the Witch's power, you will need to dedicate this power to share His Majesty's worries."
"Although I often complain about His Majesty in daily life, our family has been loyal to the Royal Family for generations. Your power must not be used for others."
"When the ti cos, I will send you to the Royal Palace. You will beco a Patronized Witch, revered and feared by tens of thousands. Lele, you must prepare yourself ntally. This is your mission and your destiny."
Lu Lele ended her recollection and took a deep breath.
The information she had collected in this short ti just now was not ordinary at all; it was even far more than the sum of all the information she had collected since arriving in this world.
White Witch, magic, Witches, the Church, Traitors to the Law...
The Earl actually knew so much information. This was completely inconsistent with his usual appearance of being a pleasure seeker.
This cheap father of hers was not as simple as he looked.
If nothing else, just the fact that he personally said he had a complicated past with the White Witch and that everyone else who knew the White Witch other than him was dead was enough to explain a lot of information.
Lu Lele did not dare to believe the Earl's words entirely.
Of course, she wanted to believe the Earl.
However, the Earl's words and actions always made her feel that sothing was a bit strange, especially these contradictory statents. Even if they could be explained, they still made Lu Lele unconsciously raise her guard.
Better safe than sorry, as they say.
