"It doesn't hurt anymore."
Goethe shook his head.
"Walking with me to the corridor?"
Scrooge Grams asked.
"I only hurt my face, my legs are fine."
Goethe laughed, but the wound was touched again and he couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Scrooge K. frowned as he looked at it.
However, the Grand Duke didn't say anything. He just nodded to Silla and Swart, walked to the corridor outside the room, and waited quietly for Goethe.
Facing Sila and Swart's questioning eyes, Goethe waved his hand, indicating that he could do it.
He put on his shoes, picked up his coat, and walked towards Scrooge.
Then, the two of them walked side by side in the corridor.
"Goethe, what was your favorite place to visit when you were in Luster?"
When he reached a corner where he could see the courtyard, the Grand Duke stopped, turned his head and asked.
"Garden Club."
Goethe touched the tip of his nose and said this.
In 'his' memory, 'his' favorite place to go was really the Garden Club.
after all……
As a man, you cannot reject your own weakness.
"Garden Club?"
"Hahaha!"
The Grand Duke was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly.
The archduke smiled and patted Goethe on the shoulder.
Full of strength.
But his eyes were full of smiles.
"I also like to go to clubs - but after becoming the Guardian of the North, I couldn't go to any club in Hale Lester, unless I wanted to make it known to the whole city, and later I met the man I loved.
Mother of Man, Simley, Emley, Gergil and Nina: Little Jasmine.”
When facing his wife, the Grand Duke chose a nickname.
He looked at his nephew and pointed to an empty flowerbed in the courtyard.
"When little Jasmine was alive, she liked to plant flowers, but she couldn't grow them at all. She tried her best to take care of them every time, but it didn't work at all. The flowers still died."
"At one point, she started growing prickly pears."
"But in the end, he died."
"Little Jasmine was so angry that she squatted here and cried. Simlai was only five years old at the time. He kept holding Little Jasmine's hand and comforting his mother."
"You may not know that Simlai looks serious and cold, but in fact he is as gentle as little Jasmine at heart."
"Enmley is different. He has completely inherited the cunning side of little Jasmine."
"As for Gajeel?"
The Grand Duke clenched his teeth as he spoke.
Deep sorrow appeared on the face of the Grand Duke.
"He always said he wanted to pursue art, but I knew what his heart really wanted."
"well."
"Simlai, Enmlai helped Gejir cover up, thinking that I didn't know. I...wanted to be a just guardian of the north, but he is little Jasmine's child and my son."
"I can't do it."
The Grand Duke sighed.
Scrooge Grams, standing at the corner, was still strong and strong, but at this time, he was just like the ordinary middle-aged men on the streets, thinking about his family and worrying about his children.
Goethe stood there quietly, listening to the Grand Duke's words.
"But the one that worries me the most is Nina."
"When little Jasmine was young, there was a time when she couldn't smile, or rather... she was cold."
"It gives people chills when they see it."
"I was even beaten by little Jasmine at that time, saying that I was a greedy bear."
"However, it gradually got better later."
"Little Jasmine laughed. I took her around the entire northern border. She also wanted to visit Bode - although she never said it, I knew she didn't want to embarrass me."
"Simley, Enmlai, Gejir and little Jasmine are the same in this regard."
"They are always afraid that I will worry."
The Grand Duke said as he sat on the stone bench in the corridor and waved to Goethe.
Goethe immediately sat down next to the Archduke.
"I had previously arranged a blind date for Simlai, the daughter of Lord Svetra. I thought the two would be in love, but in fact they had some conflicts in private. Later I found out that the lady's private life was somewhat chaotic.
, but Simlay didn’t tell me at that time, he just told me that he liked that girl very much and was willing to get married.”
"It was Enmlai who disrupted the engagement ceremony. The lord Svetla led him to look ugly, and he died of illness after he returned."
"The other party's daughter did not inherit Svetra's territory, but a distant nephew inherited it. This stingy nephew drove away his uncle's daughter and died of illness a year later."
Hearing such words, Goethe looked strange.
How could such a coincidence happen?
There must be something fishy here.
And the Grand Duke did not hide it.
"It's Gezierbu's game."
"He thought that the other party was insulting the Ke family and his brother, so he arranged everything - after that, the Svetra Territory became the direct territory of the Ke family."
"It is a plain area, with both cultivated land and minerals. There is an iron mine and a silver mine. It is only a day's journey from Bear Castle. There are occasionally some thieves in the territory, but they are small and can't cause trouble."
As the Grand Duke spoke, he took out a parchment from his arms and handed it to Goethe.
"This is?"
Goethe had a guess in his mind.
"The letter of enfeoffment from Lord Svetra."
"Goethe, you will be the lord of that place from now on."
After speaking, the Grand Duke thrust the letter of enfeoffment into Goethe's hands without waiting for Goethe to refuse.
Even though Goethe had made a guess before, he was still surprised when he heard that it was Svetla who received the letter of enfeoffment.
"I don't……"
"you can!"
"You are one of the men of the Ke family. You have the blood of the Ke family. You are naturally qualified to inherit the territory of the north. If it weren't for the fact that Bear Castle is the fortress facing Fabol in the north, the person in charge there must be
For someone who has considerable military talent and the ability to lead troops, I will also divide the Bear Castle to you, and by the way, there is also this."
The Grand Duke took out a ruby the size of a pigeon egg from his arms and put it into Goethe's hand.
"It's good for your injury!"
The Grand Duke said this.
But in front of Goethe's eyes, words appeared——
[Healing Stone: This is a special product of the 'Fairy Lake', one of the secret realms controlled by the Tesin royal family. Putting it on the body can speed up the recovery of injuries and can actively heal injuries. When the original Ke family was in charge of the northern territory, Tes
Because it is one of the treasures sent by the royal family to appease the Ke family]
[Effect: 1, recovery; 2, cure]
[Recovery: It can speed up the recovery of the holder's injuries to a certain extent, and can also speed up the recovery of the holder's physical strength]
[Healing: You can release the power of healing at one time and recover all injuries including fatal injuries, but the healing stone will lose its effect afterwards]
(Note 1: The recovery speed of the healing stone is closely related to the [body] of the holder)
(Note 2: The healing stone can only heal injuries and cannot dispel curses or other negative effects)
(Note 3: Can be brought into the ‘secret realm’)
…
"Slow recovery from injuries?"
"Cure fatal wounds?"
Goethe looked at the properties of the [Healing Stone], and his eyes glowed.
Both [restoration] and [healing] effects are very important to Goethe.
The former makes him more durable.
The latter is basically an extra life.
Goethe wanted it, but couldn't have it.
He will return it immediately.
However, the Grand Duke did not take it, but looked at Goethe seriously.
"Are you trying to unsettle me?"
The Grand Duke asked.
"I……"
"You are my nephew, and I am your uncle. As your elder, when you encountered a crisis in Luster, I was full of guilt for not arriving immediately."
"Originally, I thought that everything would be fine after I took you to my side, but something like this happened again. Now I can't wait to rush to Bode and twist off the heads of those bastards."
"But, I can't."
"The North is not ready yet."
Saying these words, the Archduke patted Goethe on the shoulder again.
"Tomorrow I will let Enmlai teach you the inherited knowledge of the Ke family - Simler is more suitable, but recently he has to help me deal with the pressure coming from Bode."
"As for Gergil...well, forget it."
When it came to his youngest son, the Grand Duke looked helpless.
"If you have anything, just tell me directly. Don't worry about Bode."
"I'll take care of it."
The Archduke smiled at Goethe, stood up and left.
Goethe looked at the archduke's leaving figure, holding the letter of enfeoffment and the [Healing Stone] that Svetra had received in his hand, sitting there in a daze.
From beginning to end, he could feel the Grand Duke's care for him.
That is the unique care that elders give to younger generations.
but……
The identity is obviously fake!
What on earth is going on?
Goethe had constant doubts in his heart and looked towards the empty flower garden.
At this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew by, and big raindrops fell with pitter-patter.
It finally rained in Hallestre after a gloomy afternoon.
The rain has a hint of coolness.
Even in summer, the residents of Hallestre feel uncomfortable.
Many old people even lit fireplaces directly.
This is especially true in the Kejia Castle.
Firewood burned brightly in the fireplace of the small conference room.
Dispels the coldness and dampness.
When Scrooge opened the door, a wave of heat hit him.
"Father(X3)!"
The waiting Simlei Ke, Emlei Ke and Gejir stood up at the same time.
"Um."
"I just visited Goethe."
"He is in better spirits than expected."
The Grand Duke said as he sat in the middle chair.
"Goethe, who can fight against extraordinary beings with a mortal body, is definitely not a weak guy - and he has outstanding talent. As long as he completes three 'baptisms', he will definitely become a person that attracts attention."
Gergil showed undisguised admiration.
"Three 'baptisms'?"
"For a guy who hasn't completed his 'baptism' even once, is it too early to tell him three times?"
"Even if his father gave him the family secrets, he would not be able to reach the level of the first 'baptism' within three to five years."
Emrek leaned back in the chair, one leg resting on the armrest of the chair, and one hand picking his ears, looking carefree.
However, when Simuleke's eyes swept over him, the second son of the Grand Duke immediately sat up straight and placed his hands neatly.
Then, the eldest son of the Grand Duke looked at Gegil.
"Don't use what you studied to help Goethe."
On the word 'help', Simley.K emphasizes the pronunciation.
"He is my brother. I can't let Goethe do experiments with those unfinished potions - it would be great if we could have the 'secret realm' of those bastards. Maybe there is something in there that can help Goethe baptize in advance.
thing."
Gejir promised, and then when he mentioned the 'secret realm', his tone was filled with envy.
"Don't count on those crooked things."
"As long as we Ke family men rely on ourselves, that's enough!"
"Our ancestors were able to obtain everything now from nothing. As descendants of the Ke family, we should keep this honor in mind!"
The Grand Duke suddenly spoke.
"Yes, father."
The three young people answered immediately.
The three of them all looked serious and did not show off.
The Grand Duke looked at his three sons and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he looked at his eldest son.
"Simler, I gave Svetla to Goethe."
The Grand Duke said with a hint of guilt.
After the last engagement incident, Svetla Territory became the territory of the Ke family, and it has been managed by Simlai Ke.
"Um."
"Goethe needs a stable fiefdom."
"I will have the soldiers in his territory trained again."
Simler Ke had no objections.
For the eldest son of the Grand Duke, although the Svetla territory was rich, Goethe was his younger brother, so there was no problem if he gave it to his younger brother.
"The training needs to be stepped up this time."
"besides……"
"Pay attention at the border too."
"Those bastards from Tesin won't let this opportunity go so easily."
The Grand Duke reminded the eldest son.
"Let them come!"
"I'll show them what hell is!"
The eldest son of the Grand Duke said murderously.
Of course, it wasn't just talk. The eldest son of the Grand Duke immediately opened the map he carried with him and began to tell his father and two younger brothers what his plan was.
At the same time, several members of Tesin's royal family also sat together in the capital city of Bode.
