Olivia would never disappoint those who treated her with sincerity. If the famous "Lord Vilgefortz" treated her like a pawn, then his personal secretary, Lydia, treated her with more sincerity.
Of course, Lydia, who hung out with Vilgefortz, was not a good person. These days, sorcerers were also known as witches. They were hunted down by various witch hunters. In some propaganda, witches were ominous beings who brought disaster and curses to mortals.
When Lydia first appeared in front of Olivia, she did not even use any illusions. Instead, she displayed her severely burned face in front of Olivia. She looked just like Freddy from a horror movie …
Fortunately, our Lady Ermion Zhao was experienced and knowledgeable. She activated her acting skills at the critical moment and poured some chicken soup into her mouth. Appearance was not important, inner beauty was the most important. She did not care what the person who taught her looked like. She only cared if she could learn something. As the saying goes, "Once a teacher, always a mother".
Olivia may have been young, but she had a big heart. She was not arrogant or prejudiced. She did not care about justice or evil. She focused on improving herself. She earned skill points by completing side quests. Her life in this source world was very fulfilling.
She treated the sorceress Lydia calmly and gently. Lydia, who was sensitive due to her disfigurement, felt a warmth that she had not felt for a long time.
Other than some demons who were born with chaotic attributes, as long as they had a little bit of humanity, they would yearn for recognition and acceptance. This was especially true for sorceresses, who were born lonely.
Lydia felt an inexplicable sense of happiness in the process of teaching Olivia. She even felt that she, Olivia, and Vilgefortz had formed an ordinary family of three. This was something she had never dared to dream of before …
When a woman fell in love with a man, she would, of course, want to bear his children. However, most sorcerers could not bear children. Some sorcerers would even look for ways to give birth to their own children.
Lydia was not the only one who was troubled by this problem. Yennefer, the famous sorceress who graduated from Aretuza's Sorceress Academy, also wanted to have a child with a legendary witcher. Unfortunately, it was almost impossible. So, under certain circumstances, she would transfer her desire and love for children to an adopted daughter.
That legendary witcher was Geralt, also known as the "White Wolf." According to the "Law of Surprise," Cirilla would become his adopted daughter. Naturally, Yennefer would love Cirilla as well.
Perhaps one day, the two of them would treat Cirilla like their own daughter …
Emhyr and Pavetta, the biological parents of Olivia and Cirilla, were truly incompetent. The former only wanted to return to Nilfgaardian and become the Emperor of Nilfgaardian. Pavetta did not have the patience to take care of their own children.
Therefore, Olivia was brought along by Vilgefortz and Lydia, the two villains who hid their abilities well. As for Cirilla, she was very close to her maternal grandmother, Calanthe …
At this time, Olivia saw Lydia's disappointed expression. Obviously, Lydia thought that her talent was mediocre. She could not enter the state of meditation immediately. Olivia was not stingy with her skill points. She directly added a point to the "meditation" skill icon. Next, she only needed to use this icon in the game system to enter the state of meditation. She could even adjust the time of meditation!
The younger a sorcerer was, the earlier they could enter the state of meditation, the greater their potential. Learning magic also had to start at a young age …
At this time, Lydia spoke in a voice that was different from her usual cold indifference. Instead, she spoke in a soft voice, "You are still too young. The power of your blood cannot be fully activated. Don't worry if you cannot enter the state of meditation. I have not even taken out a magic potion that can help you enter the state of meditation. You …"
Before Lydia could finish her sentence, she was stunned. Olivia, who she thought was only cute, had an "average" talent in magic. Once again, she was dumbfounded by the truth!
Olivia had successfully entered the state of meditation!
She could easily feel the magical elements around her. What she needed to do was to familiarize herself with them and get along with them. With the help of the System, all of this seemed to be a matter of course …
Lydia walked around Olivia for a long time. She had no idea what Olivia's talent was. After all, when she was Olivia's age, she had not been able to successfully enter the state of meditation!
However, the power of Olivia's blood had already reached a consensus with Vilgefortz. She was not the kind of person who had no magical talent. She was also not the kind of source sorcerer whose blood was so strong that she could not use magic. She was also not the kind of sorcerer who could cast ultimate spells. But how could she, who was so ordinary, always make her presence known?
All in all, Lydia was pleasantly surprised. No one would wish for their own children to be untalented. She felt that it was quite interesting to be constantly surprised by Olivia's talent.
Lydia also hoped that Olivia could go to Aretuza's Sorceress Academy on Thanedd Island to further her studies. There were so many types of magic. What Lydia was good at might not be the most suitable for Olivia. Lydia was starting to look forward to Olivia's success.
What Lydia did not know was that with the system, Olivia could be good at anything … as long as she had enough skill points.
At night, Vilgefortz and Lydia were alone. They did not seem to be close, even though they had just made physical contact.
"Today, I taught Olivia how to meditate," Lydia said lazily, as if she was still savoring the aftertaste.
"Oh? With the power of her blood, she was able to learn to meditate at the age of seven. Teaching her this now is just a blow to her ego. "Vilgefortz took a sip of wine and said with a sense of superiority.
"But she successfully meditated today," Lydia retorted. She did not seem to regard her superior as her superior.
"What? That's impossible. With her mediocre talent … "Vilgefortz did not continue. He felt that his apprentice was too evil. But it did not matter. There was still a long way to go.
Lydia smiled faintly. She hoped that this life would continue. To her, it was a warm and happy life.
Unfortunately, the next moment, Vilgefortz shattered her fantasy. "Emhyr finally agreed to my plan. I've had enough of staying in this boring Cintra for so many years."
"You're going back to Nilfgaard?"
"Not only that. Cintra's son-in-law, Downey, has to die. The one going back is the prince of Nilfgaard, Emhyr, hehehe …"
"I don't care. I just want to know, what about Olivia?"
"Her? She's dispensable. Cirilla must stay with her father. "
"I don't want to be separated from Olivia. I want to send her to the Sorceress Academy in Aretuza," Lydia requested.
Vilgefortz frowned. He really didn't understand why this cold-blooded assistant and secretary, who he was so comfortable with, would suddenly become so sentimental.
Heh, women.
"Then let's bring her along. It's fun to keep her as a pet, isn't it?" Vilgefortz smiled as if everything was under control. He was so handsome and charming.
