Lin Li was led by Mr. Steven as he walked in the corridor of the castle. Lin Li saw oil paintings of people hanging on the walls of the corridor, with their names written on them, and a text introduction under each painting.
At the end of the corridor, Lin Li saw the last portrait, which showed a very young and beautiful blond demon woman. The name in the lower right corner turned out to be Evelina.
Lin Li stopped and looked carefully at the text under the mural on the wall.
"The demon race shouldn't be like this. The division of blood levels makes us inherently unequal. But are we who are born with noble blood really noble? I don't think so. Noble blood doesn't seem to be
Giving us a noble look makes us ugly, selfish, and arrogant because of our natural blood. Everything we do now makes me hate this innate nobility..."
"This is what Evelina said when she was young. We didn't understand her at that time and thought she was just talking. Until she fell in love with that demon swordsman of low bloodline and left the family for him.
, I didn’t know she was serious about all this..." Mr. Steven said softly as he gently wiped the mural on the wall with his hand.
"Mother-in-law, when she was young, was she opposed to relying on blood to divide hierarchies?"
"Yes, at that time, the elders in the family were extremely resistant to her idea, which they considered absurd, and took back all the rights that had been given to her. In the end, in order to isolate her from those low-blooded demons
She was kept in the family and refused to go out. At that time, she asked me to work with her to change everything, but I didn’t have the courage like her... She has been a girl who has always radiated light since she was a child.
.”
Lin Li listened to Old Man Steven's words, and could hear a lot of regret in his tone. However, he had carefully observed the people in the manor since he first entered the manor. The servants in the manor seemed to be all.
It didn't look like they were being forced to work, everyone seemed to be having a good time.
"It was only when I took over the right to take charge of the entire family from my father that I began to think about making changes according to Evelina's ideas. In today's Amy family, their ranks are no longer divided by blood.
Everyone in the family is a family member of the Amy family, so that all people in the family can truly live an equal and happy life. However, all this has come too late, and it still cannot make up for those who have been harmed by the family.
people."
"What you are doing is breaking the original rules. Even if the apostles and the Demon King are not alarmed, then the other nobles and royal families in this country do not care about your actions?" Ron on the side suddenly asked.
"Now that we have chosen this path, our Amy family is ready to face all this. In recent years, the territory of the Amy family has been continuously compressed by other families, and many of the family's mineral deposits have also been taken back by the royal family. If one day we really mess with
The angry Apostle and even the Demon King are nothing more than death, and they are all ready." Steven said and looked at the three Hovids standing next to them. The Amy family can only have these young people.
The most proud thing in his life.
"Don't worry, the Amy family will always exist." Lin Li looked at the words under Evelina's mural and didn't know who he was talking to. Only now did he realize how difficult it is to change in this world.
, even a large noble must bear the risk of being exterminated if he wants to make changes, but there are a few people who can desperately choose to make a different voice to the world like Aunt Evelina and the Amy family.
Woolen cloth?
"Squeak"
Old Man Steven pushed open the door of the room behind him, and Lin Li and the others followed Old Man Steven into the room. The room was spacious and bright, and there were chairs with exquisitely carved patterns. There was also a chair in the middle of the room.
Oval long table.
Tammy followed Lin Li and listened to the conversation of these adults. She was getting more and more bored. She didn't know how long they would continue talking, so she pulled Lin Li's sleeves and asked weakly: "I want to go out to play with Xiao Jin, is it okay?"
?”
When Lin Li heard what Tammy said, he was a little embarrassed for a moment. He didn't feel comfortable letting Tammy and Xiao Jin go wandering around outside without anyone accompanying him. These two troublemakers might cause some trouble.
"Haha, let this little guy go, I'll let Jason accompany them." Felix looked at Tammy who was begging and said with a smile.
As soon as Felix finished speaking, a demon dressed in black robes emerged from his shadow.
"Oh? A member of the Shadow Clan?" Ron nodded as he looked at the Demon Clan emerging from the shadows.
"Well, he was rescued by his grandfather when he was a child. He has been living in the family all his life. His name is Jason. Let him take them around the family."
"Good guy, you dare to come out and tell me, did you go to big brother to complain about me today?" Howe grabbed Jason who had just come out of the shadow and asked him fiercely.
"I just stated the facts. Now the family no longer allows you to cause trouble outside." Jason said calmly without any apology.
"Hmph, you dare to take charge of me. It's been a long time since we have discussed each other. Do you want to give it a try?"
"Stop making trouble, I have business to do." Jason broke free from Hovid's arm, ran to Tammy and Xiaojin, and led Tammy and Xiaojin out of the room. He didn't want to deal with this lunatic who was so careless.
In the past, I would lie down for half a month after each sparring session.
Seeing Tammy jumping out with someone accompanying her, Lin Li felt relieved.
Seeing Hodge, who had been looking gloomy all the time, he suddenly thought of using the Amy family's connections to find out if he could find those bushwalkers who were captured as slaves.
After the group sat down on the chairs, Lin Li asked: "Grandpa Steven, I wonder if the Amy family's ability can help me find a group of slaves. Those slaves are all members of my friend's tribe.
He was arrested outside the city by slave traders in the city, and I don’t know where they are being held now.”
"Huh?" Mr. Steven looked at Hodge next to Lin Li, "There are too many slave traders in this city, and the Amy family has not had contact with those slave traders for a long time."
Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard what Mr. Steven said. If even the Amy family couldn't provide help, then he would have to go to the city and inquire a little bit by himself? That would be too inefficient. Maybe he would wait until he got the news.
By that time, the bushwalkers had all been sold off.
