As long as one was in the human world, one had to abide by the rules of the game.
The people in power who made the rules and were protected by the rules believed in such rules with an almost superstitious attitude. They did not believe that there was an existence that could overturn the rules. Even if there was, they would gather together and do their best to suppress it. Until blood flowed like a river, until either side completely collapsed. There was no other outcome in the battle for dominance of the rules.
But whether those people admitted it or not, there were still powerful people in the world who could ignore the rules. But the rules of the human world were not so easy to break. Even someone as strong as the Lich, and a mage who did not know how to put himself on a higher level, had times when he found it tricky. Just like the family revolution in Estali's home in the Holy City …
The cause of the incident was the broken head of the newly made astronomical telescope.
The lens used before was polished by dwarven craftsmen using magic stones that had been depleted of their Mana Authority. Magic stones whose magic power had been exhausted would become transparent crystals. Although it no longer contained magic power, it was still a magic material and could be permanently shaped with the use of shaping.
The most difficult part was not how to polish the curvature of the lens surface, but how to achieve an even distribution of the internal density. That was to say, the refractive index of all parts of the lens was exactly the same, or at least close to the crystal.
To achieve this, it was not something that could be achieved with simple shaping. First, the magic crystal had to be softened to the point that it was close to liquid, and then mixed to make it evenly distributed. This was a stupid method that someone could not think of. After all, he was not a transmigrator who had a full set of Lycra optical technology. And the success rate of this stupid method was, as expected, so low that it made one's hair stand on end.
So back then, he almost got the dwarf craftsmen to cooperate with him, and only then did he make a few lenses that someone could accept. Then, he used them until he went to the abyss and messed things up. Then, of course, he returned to the ruins of the former Demon Lord Sha Bin's castle to look for the remains of the telescope. And as expected, the lenses all died heroically.
And observing the stars, in addition to the need to find a way home, was also someone's interest. Also, when observing the stars, he could obtain a rare peace. Of course, he could not leave it alone. So, making a new astronomical telescope was prioritized by someone in the order of priority.
Today, of course, Lin had a better way of making lenses than the stupid methods he used in the past. However, it was also very laborious, and he had to do it himself. Because there were some operations that needed to be taught to other producers, the time spent on teaching would probably have been spent on his own.
The specific operation was to use the Draconic enchantment technique, which was the sound wave vibration, to evenly distribute the crystals and adjust the curvature of the lens surface. But in practice, because it had never been done before, there were a lot of waste products used in the experiment.
It wasn't easy to make a set, but before he could test the effect after installing the binoculars, it was smashed by those two naughty fat boys.
Currently, the main troublemaker at home was the child brought by Black Dragon Augustus – Ezio. The other child, Kish, gradually became more sensible as he grew older because his mother, Vana, took care of him. The three kittens were taken care of by the magic cat Hardy. Compared to fooling around at home, they preferred to go out for adventures. Sometimes, not returning home for three days was not a big deal.
But Ezio was completely self-indulgent and lawless. Just like most children who used pranks to seek attention, they only hoped that someone would love them or even scold them. Unfortunately, in this family, except for the doting grandfather, Black Dragon Augustus, Lin and Fen, the two adults, completely ignored the children, let alone take care of them.
Vana also loved Ezio very much, but after all, he was still different from her own son. Or, for the children, they still felt that they were treated differently. Therefore, Ezio greedily wanted more love and care.
But children were unreasonable creatures. They didn't know what was meant by observing people's expressions, didn't know how to read the atmosphere, and didn't know what kind of behavior would cause trouble for others. It was because there were so many things that they didn't understand that they needed to be taught.
Otherwise, if they unilaterally ignored them, they would end up like a certain someone. The room was no different from a disaster. In addition to the mess, the lens that was placed on the workbench not long ago was heroically destroyed again.
When they first came to this family, a certain child was taught a lesson by Lin because he was too naughty. But at that time, Augustus was protecting him, and they weren't familiar with each other yet. So when a certain someone expressed his intention to teach him a lesson, he stopped. Ezio did stop for a while … but it was only for a while.
Now that he saw the miserable state of his room, a certain someone silently used the Flash Spell to go to the forest outside the Holy City and racked his brains to find a suitable vine. The specific standard depended on which kind of whipping was more painful when he was young. Then, he went home and began to aim at the fat child's buttocks from all directions. If one was broken, he would find another one. In any case, the vine was free. It was free.
The fat child, who was screaming from being whipped, had never suffered like this before. The first thing he did was run to the east wing, intending to ask his grandfather to protect him. Lin didn't stop him. He cast the Light Body Technique on himself and moved quickly step by step, accurately whipping the child's buttocks with the vine. And he used all kinds of fancy moves, from the front, to the side, to the side, to the side, and upside down. Once the vine came out, it would definitely greet the child's buttocks.
When the onlookers saw that a certain someone was ruthless this time, whipping the fat child until he cried out non-stop, they wanted to come out and protect the child. Especially the two girls, Halloumi and Kaya, who considered themselves to be the two children's older sisters. How could they not come out and protect their younger brother when he was being beaten so badly?
Seeing that his apprentices were standing in front of him, and that mischievous fat child who couldn't be taught was hiding behind them, Lin temporarily stopped. "Teacher, Ezio is still a child." The two girls used the same old excuse and said, "Teacher, Ezio is still a child. Is there a need to beat him up like this? "
A certain someone was wondering if these two girls didn't beat him enough in the past, which was why they said such things today. But when he thought about it seriously, he really hadn't beaten these two girls before. First of all, they were very self-aware and wouldn't have this kind of mischievous behavior to seek attention. Second, he usually used other methods to help them remember, rather than teaching them a lesson with his fists very roughly.
But just as a certain someone was thinking about how to phrase it, the fat child hid behind someone else, waved his fist angrily, and said, "That's right, I'm just a child. Besides, you're not my father, what right do you have to teach me! "
This time, a certain someone laughed. It was a hideous laugh, a frightening laugh, a laugh that made people who saw it involuntarily shiver from their tailbone all the way to their forehead.
The two girls were no stranger to this kind of smile. Every time before a lesson that left a deep impression on them that they would never forget for the rest of their lives, they would always see this kind of 'I'm ready to play you to death' smile. This made the two devastated girls want to slip away.
