I am the only one who practices magic: I practice magic in the city

Chapter 582 I had no intention of overstepping my bounds (First Update)
Lisia once wanted to help Adrian regain his gender, but Adrian refused.

She also said, "If love is merely a physical union, then it is too lowly. Only by transcending the barriers of gender and physical form can we prove that the bond between us is immortal."

Lisia was so moved that she cried her eyes out.

She believed it.

She was willing to believe it.

It wasn't until Adrian devoured all her spiritual power and life essence through the Heart-Stealing Mother that she understood why Adrian refused to restore her gender.

The other party has always been preparing to devour her and achieve legend!
Even though the rejection reaction was reduced by the Heart-Stealing Mother's treatment, her life essence and spiritual power are still female-oriented, and only those who are also female can be successfully devoured.

In that instant, it felt as if countless ice blades were piercing Lisia's heart.

Her mental strength was collapsing, her life essence was being torn apart, and the last glimmer of light in her heart was extinguished.

Her lover shattered her trust, leaving her without even the courage to struggle.

It was precisely this near-death despair that was one of the key reasons why Adrian was able to successfully seal her away.

After Fang Yu's repeated probing, it was basically confirmed that Lisia had no idea that Adrian had experienced the time he transmigrated to Earth.

Based on the available information, it is inferred that Adrian, for some unknown reason, perhaps as he claimed, was the result of some arcane experiment, which caused his spirit to travel to Earth and descend into the body of a newborn baby girl.

Then, after graduating from university, he found a way to return to the main plane and got back to the main plane.
How did he travel through time?

How did you get back?
Fang Yu looked deep in thought.

He is now basically certain that Earth and the Prime Material Plane are not planes to plane, and teleportation spells cannot possibly transport people from Earth to the Prime Material Plane, and vice versa.

Currently, only the Rubik's Cube, which Vernes calls the "Eternal Focus," can achieve this.

Could it be that Adrian had also come into contact with this Rubik's Cube?
Wait a minute, Lysia just said that Adrian disappeared for five years.

If it's a Rubik's Cube, then no matter how long it stays on Earth, its return time should remain unchanged.

Even if he finds a way to make time flow in both directions, the time on both sides will still be in a one-to-one relationship.

He spent at least twenty-three years on Earth, but only five years have passed here.

Moreover, this Rubik's Cube was fished out of Cuiping Lake by Gao Mingkai, and it had been lying quietly at the bottom of the lake along with that strange bead for at least the past three hundred years.

Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, but still did not ask Lixia about the "Eternal Focus".

The fifteen-minute break passed in the blink of an eye, and Fang Yu floated in mid-air for the duration of that time.

"I'm sorry, Mage Licia, I may have to go. I'll be quite busy these next few days and may not be able to come every day."

Lisia waved her hand listlessly, and the surrounding scenery began to shatter into pieces, turning into specks of light.

"It's alright, young mage, I'm used to it."

Fang Yu nodded and bid farewell to Lixia, but did not disappear immediately. After thinking for a moment, he pointed his finger in the air, and the fragments that had turned into points of light began to gather again.

The points of light regrouped, and after a short while, they gradually created a wide expanse of water.

The lake surface was like a flawless mirror, reflecting the sunlight and shimmering in the water, as if even the wind held its breath.

In the distance, several low, gently sloping mountains are reflected in the lake, their bluish-gray outlines casting varying shades of color on the water.

Near the shore, a long, winding bridge stretches out, its white stone railings shimmering with a faint golden glow.

The pavilion in the middle of the lake has red pillars and green tiles, which are reflected on the clear lake surface, creating a swaying reflection.

Several pink and white flowers beside the pavilion were unfurling their petals, their stems meandering and swaying gently in the wind.

In the distance, a solitary tower stands tall, its color transformed into a brilliant gold by the setting sun.

A long bridge lies across the landscape, with distant mountain shadows as dark as ink, and the faint sound of a deep bell can be heard, spreading layer by layer through the mist.

The lakeside buildings feature overlapping eaves and soaring corners, resembling bird wings stretching towards the sky.

The roof is covered with green tiles, and the walls are painted with thick vermilion lacquer. Figures occasionally flash through the openwork windows, where young men and women lean against the railing, embracing each other with deep affection.

Lisia stared blankly at the scenery around her.

"This is West Lake." "Unfortunately, it will only exist for less than a minute."

"But it doesn't matter, maybe soon you will be able to see the real West Lake with your own eyes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Yu's figure shattered into pieces, and Lixia's spirituality trembled involuntarily, its colors shifting unpredictably.
-
Fang Yu's figure slowly appeared on the streets of London, which were decorated with Christmas ornaments.

The jazz music of "Merry Christmas" drifted from the storefronts along the road. Pedestrians hurried along both sides of the road, but no one noticed Fang Yu's figure, which was gradually becoming more prominent.

In short, we still need to solve the problem of divine upgrading first.

My divinity has now been upgraded to 2.8. Based on my discussions with Lisia over the past few days, the bottleneck problem will be solved once my divinity reaches 10.

While we're at it, let's add some more excitement to the Queen's funeral.

The impact of the Queen's death was far-reaching.

This is not only because Elizabeth II is the oldest royal in the world, but also because of the special status of the Angolan royal family. The death of any other king would not have such an impact.

What many people don't know is that among the many royal families in Jurop, the Anglo-Saxon royal family is the most prominent not only because of the aura brought by the former "British Empire".

More importantly, almost all members of the Yurop royal family today can trace their lineage back to George II and Queen Caroline three hundred years ago.

All members of the royal family in Julop have the blood of George II and Caroline.

If Queen Victoria was the "grandmother of Julop," then Caroline was the "great-great-grandmother," with an earlier and more widespread influence.

The royal families of almost all countries, including Anglo-Saxon, Northern Yugoslavia, the land of windmills, the land of chocolate, Greece, Romania, and the land of geese, share this lineage.

So now you know why white people are one family, right?
Because they really are one family.

Moreover, this "family" is not the kind of general statement that people of the Great Zhou are accustomed to saying, "We were one family five hundred years ago," but rather a gene-level connection of noble lineages.

The only family that is somewhat similar to them is the "Duke Yansheng" family from the previous Zhou Dynasty.

In other words, the Yurop royal family consists of more than a dozen "Duke Yansheng" families who have intermarried for three hundred years and are still passing on that deep-rooted bloodline honor to this day.

The underlying differences in ideology are something that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who had been accustomed to the idea that "there are no noble families after Huang Chao" for over a thousand years, could not understand.

However, even the passing of such an important figure did not significantly affect the Christmas celebrations of the Anglo-Saxon people.

The biggest difference is that the cheerful Christmas songs like "Golden Hook" that are often played in stores have been replaced by more solemn choral Christmas carols such as "Merry Christmas" and "Silent Night".

Because God is more noble than Queen.

The Queen's body is lying in state in Westminster Hall of the Houses of Parliament. Tomorrow, her remains will be moved to Westminster Abbey across the street for a state funeral.

Unlike Westminster Hall, which was filled with a somber and solemn atmosphere, St. Stephen's Hall, which was separated by only one wall, was filled with an atmosphere of anxiety, anger, and panic.

Inside St. Stephen's Hall, the vaulted stone walls cast long shadows under the dim yellow light, resembling a frozen mural.

The statues on both sides of the corridor stand silently, their faces in a state of half-light and half-shadow.

A deep, resonant chime drifted from outside the hall, mingling faintly with the distant, solemn hymns.

"The succession to the throne is not based on anyone's likes or dislikes, but is determined by the laws and constitution of the country."

"If I were to abandon my duties for personal reasons, it would be tantamount to denying the authority of the constitution itself."

“I know I am not perfect, but the order of succession is not determined by me alone.”

"If I can voluntarily give it up today, I can be forced to change it tomorrow."

"Such a succession to the throne would no longer be sacred, but merely a product of political competition."

“As a prince of Anglia, I have neither the right nor the intention to overstep my bounds.”

In St. Stephen's Hall, William, dressed in a black suit and black tie, spoke eloquently, an unnatural blush rising on his face, as he scanned the attendees around the large conference table.

Prime Minister Theresa May, Archbishop Welby of Canterbury, Privy Council President Liddington...

At the far end of the conference table stood Charles, the fifth king of the House of Windsor.
