"You must be very unhappy that I didn't have a conflict with the headquarters," Roland asked.
As he asked, he kept examining Aldo's expression, as if trying to see through the other party's mind.
Aldo looked a little dispirited at this moment, as if he had experienced some major change in his life. His eyes were listless and even a little numb.
Hearing Roland's question, he shook his head woodenly. "It has nothing to do with that. The person who came is a talent of the Bard family, so it's normal for him to know when to advance and when to retreat. With the personalities of you Golden Sons, sooner or later, you'll run into the headquarters. I'm not in a hurry. "
"Then what's with this lovelorn look, Chairman?" Roland found a chair and sat down.
Although there were extra chairs, Aldo didn't sit down. The light in the laboratory was a little dim, making the chairman's expression look even gloomier and gloomier.
"My child is gone!"
When Roland heard this, he asked curiously, "I remember you don't seem to have children."
"You also know that I've taken in a lot of female servants, most of them related to me." Aldo sighed softly. "Some time ago, when I took them to avoid the people from the headquarters, I lived in seclusion in a nearby mountain, where I had a secret refuge. But one day, a woman had a miscarriage. The child was six months old, and I actually didn't notice. I only found out after she miscarried. "
The matter of offspring was indeed very important. Roland sighed as well and comforted, "My condolences. Although it's a little inappropriate to say this, you're still young. Can't you just have a few more?"
When Aldo heard this, he looked at Roland with a strange look. "Don't you Golden Sons ever worry about having children?"
"There are worries. Sometimes you don't want to have children and you'll be hit with a dart, and then there's a surprise waiting for you." Roland shrugged and said, "Although I don't have any children yet, I've heard from the elders that raising a child is a very troublesome and expensive thing these days."
Aldo looked strangely at Roland. "I don't know how it is in your Plane of Golden Sons, but here, it's quite difficult for Mages to have children."
Roland froze. "Why do you say that? I'm quite curious."
"Because of individual strength, it's difficult for ordinary women to conceive the child of a professional. The greater the difference in strength, the smaller the chances. That's why professionals generally marry other professionals, and the children they give birth to have a high chance of also being professionals. "
Would professionals gradually turn into another species as they grew stronger?
Roland thought for a moment and asked, "Then it's not easy for ordinary men to impregnate female professionals?"
Aldo showed a very strange expression. "It's even worse … Most ordinary men can't even penetrate the membrane of female professionals! If it's a female warrior, when they're in the sky, they might even break the penis of an ordinary man. "
Hearing this, Roland felt a chill run down his spine. This was too terrifying.
"Don't talk about ordinary men. We mages have weak physiques, and we can't really withstand the torment of female warriors. "
Roland sighed. "We Mages are so pitiful. It's hard to learn magic, expensive in the early stages, and now it's so hard even to find a spouse. So … we magicians can only look for female magicians? "
"That's right, but you can also find a female warrior who's much weaker than you, or a female agility class who's slightly weaker. The chances aren't too low. But none of them were easy to find. They prefer strong men. We're not their first choice. "
Roland let out a long sigh. "Hearing you say that, I kind of don't want to be a Mage anymore."
Hearing Roland's joke, Aldo finally laughed, but he looked miserable. "I've been blacklisted in the headquarters, and it's almost impossible to find a female Mage of similar strength to marry. I'd already given up and planned to spend the rest of my life with a bunch of ordinary women, or adopt a son. I just didn't expect that a woman would be pregnant with my flesh and blood, and I didn't expect that the Goddess of Magic would give me hope and then take it away. "
Roland was curious. "Didn't the woman who was pregnant with your flesh and blood tell you that she was pregnant? It's been six months, and her belly should've bulged slightly. No matter how slow she was, she should've realized that she was pregnant. "
"She didn't dare." Aldo smiled bitterly. "Because we Mages are more mysterious and superior in the eyes of ordinary people, and I never mentioned the matter of offspring, they didn't dare have any extravagant hopes. And she was afraid that if she was pregnant with my child, it would be aborted as an illegitimate child that shouldn't have been born. So she's been holding it in. Originally, she planned to wait another half a month, save more money, and sneak away to give birth to the child. "
"It seems quite reasonable for her to consider it that way." Roland sighed. "Why did she miscarry the child?"
"She went to the foot of the mountain to fetch water, and halfway up the mountain, her foot slipped and rolled down. Although she rolled less than twenty meters, her stomach hit a stone."
Roland sighed as well. At first, he thought he could hear a palace drama.
"I wasn't far up there at the time, and when I saw her roll down, I immediately went down to help her up, but I saw a lot of blood gushing out of her lower body. And she grabbed my pants, not caring to hide it anymore, crying and asking me to save her child, my child. "
Alpha pressed his right hand to his forehead and inhaled painfully. "But I only know offensive spells and some enhancement spells, I don't know healing spells. I frantically sent people back to the city to the Church of Life to invite a priest over, but it was too far, and the child was gone. "
His voice of pain and self-blame, as well as his haggard face.
Roland could vaguely feel how much pain Aldo was in.
Aldo continued, "Although she didn't have a child, I decided to let her take care of herself. If she can get pregnant with my child once, she might be able to have a second time."
Roland felt that Aldo's idea was indeed correct.
"I'm not in the mood to manage the Magic Tower right now." Aldo walked to the top of the stairs, looked at Roland, and pleaded, "So for a long time to come, I'll have to trouble you with the operation of the Magic Tower."
"I'll say it again, are you so reassured with me?"
"If you wanted to take away the resources of the Magic Tower, you would have done so long ago, there was no need to wait for me to come back."
After saying this, Aldo left.
Not long after, Vivian came up with some drinks and pastries in her hands, put the plate on the table, and said, "The chairman is a bit pitiful."
Roland asked, "You heard it all?"
"You didn't deliberately keep your voices down, we all heard it." Vivian sighed and said, "I've heard a little about the chairman's past, he's more difficult than you think, Deputy Chairman. In particular, two years after his woman betrayed his troops, the chairman was almost crippled. "
"How did he get through it?"
"He seems to have gotten over it," Vivian said lightly.
