Chapter 1252

• Liza’s expression shifted slightly, a mix of reluctance and amusement crossing her face. She had no intention of bringing up this old story, mainly because it was a product of her youthful impulsiveness. Back then, she had been fascinated by an ancient drama, and in a moment of whimsy, she borrowed the name of a character—Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor—without much thought.
• She could still recall the moment she handed the restored scroll to the cultural relics professor. The elderly professor had grasped her hand in excitement, eager to know the name of the person responsible for such an extraordinary restoration. Always preferring to keep a low profile, she couldn’t reveal her true identity. Without hesitation, she blurted out the name "Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor." That single statement had unknowingly cemented her reputation in the world of cultural preservation.
• Though she had stepped away from restoring ancient books since then, the legend of the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor persisted. The story of a young woman accomplishing what many esteemed professors had deemed impossible had spread widely. In the eyes of the industry, she was a near-mythical figure—an enigmatic genius who appeared just long enough to complete a miraculous restoration before vanishing without a trace.
