At this moment, Linde finally gave up and no longer dared to have any illusions.
It's not that he doesn't understand how people who are abandoned by their family will be treated, but the tenderness in the past blinded him, and the treatment he still enjoys as a direct young master blinds his heart.
As a result, the person in this family who was the most soft-hearted towards him was indeed his brother.
He should have known that his mother, Helena, hated betrayal the most... ever since the disaster that year forced her to give up her bright path as a magic swordsman, and she even became bedridden for many years.
Helena has always been decisive, but Linde really didn't expect that she could cut off her love for her youngest son so decisively.
However, Lind's face as he leaned against Dieter's chest was indifferent: Is all this his fault?
He knew there was something wrong with his character, but the appearance of the mutated silk spider was not because of him... Don't the count and his wife never feel guilty when facing their son who became like this because of their mistakes?
Could it be that they felt that making Linde a mage would make up for him?
Lind pursed his lips. It was not that he didn't know that Earl Steer just wanted him to return to the normal treatment of the second son of the family. Moreover, he had not taken back everything he had given him in the past, which was not considered cruel.
But, what about Ellie?
When Ellie becomes what she is now, the resources the family has devoted to her are almost like wasted... Why don't the earl and his wife react at all?
Not even the Hall of Plenty was recovered.
Linde smiled coldly: Because Ellie's abilities are now beyond the earl's understanding, so he doesn't want to openly offend this daughter who has an extraordinary experience at first glance, right?
Even if Ellie and Ismail are like that, except for their appearance... ah, even their appearance is almost gone... they have nothing to do with the Stel family.
Linde knew that this might be because he was being petty again, and the Earl should also have his considerations, but he has become what he is now.
He raised his head and tapped the armor on Dieter's chest: "Brother, you must live well!"
"What are you talking about?" Dieter couldn't help but touched Lind's forehead, "Don't worry, I have been at the border for so many years and I have a lot of money.
I also got a lot of commission from the mithril I sold last time.
I'll buy you dozens of bottles...ah, even if it's 100 bottles of medicine, I can still get it.
This is a matter between our brothers, the family, and the side branches can't say anything about it.
Don't blame your father, Linde. He has always been fair and strict, which is why he has reached this point in the army... We cannot live a good life today because of his personality, but blame him for being ruthless because our own interests are harmed.
Linde, no matter how many reasons there are, you made a mistake.
Just because I can understand you doesn't mean you are right."
"I know." Linde bent his eyes and showed a forced smile, "But, brother Dieter, I will definitely start to get used to the life of the side branch in the future.
There are some things...you...don't think that I..."
Dieter immediately understood: "You want to get some private property for yourself, don't you?"
This is true. Isn't it because Ellie dares to be so arrogant because of the rich hall in her name?
If Linde had some property in his hands, he wouldn't always feel that he couldn't control his future... But giving property to boys and giving dowry to girls are completely different things in aristocratic society.
Earl Stehr did not dare to violate tradition easily. He and Helena could only give him a little more money on Lind's birthday and some important holidays.
Linde is a kid who has always been very thoughtful. He spends his daily expenses through Helena's side and doesn't have many interactions with the outside world. He still needs to have hundreds of thousands of gold coins in his hand.
Dieter turned his head and thought for a moment: "Is that so? Several shops near the safe house created by the Great Sage Belveland have not been sold. I asked Ted to take them out and sell them to you at the internal price."
Linde opened his eyes wide: "Huh? How could..."
"Because of that safe house, the prices in these stores are very high.
But because there are always poor people who cannot live there and stay there for a long time, there is no way to open a shop facing the upper class in that house.
I think you also know that no one dares to expel the people there." Dieter smiled slightly, "There is no way, these stores will fall into our hands.
Do you understand?
We don't have to sell it, but we can't sell it at a discount just for that little money. That would make people wonder if the Stehr family is going bankrupt.
Nor can it be rented out at a low price.
Tsk~The face of a nobleman.
It's okay if you buy it at a low price, especially if I ask for it.
Aren't you still learning alchemy?
In the future, you can open a crystal item store targeting the middle class without losing money.
You can just rent out other stores.
Since it's your own store, you don't need to maintain that high price."
"Perhaps you are willing to rent to us undead?" 'Lu Huayu' interrupted the conversation between the two brothers with a smile, "It would not be bad to sell things like concentration potions!"
"You..." Linde looked at him curiously, "Aren't you all rich?"
Last time, he saw a few girls squatting in a corner discussing how to get a piece of jewelry worth 300,000 gold coins... Those were ordinary undead people with no status!
In their mouth, 300,000 yuan is the same as 3 yuan, and they are afraid that they will not be able to spend it.
'Lu Huayu' blinked: "Rich people always want to be richer. Why not make money if you can?"
Quite true.
Linde nodded slightly and showed a bright smile to him: "Then when I buy it... then it will be tomorrow! Where can I find you?"
"Tomorrow? There's no need to be in such a hurry." 'Lu Huayu' laughed, "During the decisive battle, I will definitely be on that white, always moving stage.
This is a bit dangerous, the Moon Clan will definitely try to sneak attack.
How about you wait for me in Brasilia City?
After the battle is over, I will just go find you."
"No need." Linde tilted his head and showed a somewhat erratic smile, "Brother will definitely come, then I will follow him.
I think you will definitely win, and it is even less likely that your command team will be attacked by the guys on the opposite side...and there is such a powerful and beautiful girl here!"
The 'Old Sanda King' turned around lightly, and his red skirt drew a bright light in the sunset: "Ah, thank you for the compliment.
Since you plan to cooperate with Mrs. Lu...Lu Huayu, you are one of your own, so there is no need to be so polite.
I should be there tomorrow, if you need anything, you can come to me."
'Lu Huayu' thought for a while, then looked at Dieter who was silent, and nodded simply: "Okay, you can do it!
It's best to come over from the camp and say hello to the gatekeeper... Tomorrow will be a night sleeper, right? Sui Chen?
Tell them for me and let me know when you see Linde coming out of the city gate."
'Suichen' nodded: "No problem."
‘Lu Huayu’ turned back and spoke in a gentle but firm tone: “I’ll let our family members protect you, there will be no problem.
Ha~
Although Black Rose and War Territory are very powerful in combat, when it comes to protecting people, no one can compare to us in the apocalypse!"
He looked at Dieter who was a little hesitant and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Dieter.
We are professional~”
Dieter was a little surprised... The undead have always been dissatisfied with each other, and no one was willing to admit that they were inferior to others in any aspect.
But when ‘Lu Huayu’ said this, even such a powerful ‘old Sanda King’ didn’t deny it!
That's a priest who casts instant healing spells!
Even the always competitive 'War Thunder' just curled his lips and didn't say a word in rebuttal.
This apocalyptic family seems to have a very good skill indeed!
Only then did he smile: "That's great, I will bring Linde with me when the time comes.
My brother's safety depends on you!"
The setting sun slowly faded away its last rays, and Dieter and Linde had to leave.
Looking at their retreating figures, ‘War Thunder’ asked in confusion: “What are you doing?
When did Eunuch Lu change his business to selling goods?"
‘Lu Huayu’ rolled his eyes: “Ask the old dog, he knows.”
‘War Thunder’ scratched his head and said ‘oh’.
You know...'Lu Huayu' curled his lips, if the one who came forward to do this was the 'old Sanda King', that guy from Thunder wouldn't even ask!
Because it was him, that guy would use his brain a little bit.
This guy seems fine on the surface, but secretly he still treats him as an enemy.
The 'Old Sanda King' clasped his hands on his chest and raised his chin slightly: "So, tomorrow, I have to stay at the podium from morning to night?"
"Yes, I'm sure you'll be fine during the day. Do you want to add a supplementary milk for you at night?" Sui Chen asked softly.
"Huh?" The 'Old Sanda King' turned to look at him, "Don't you know that the old dog has the buffs of Dark Night and Silver Moon?
The Silver Moon Archbishop of Aglaia always looks like he wants to hang himself every time he sees him."
"What?" 'Lu Huayu' turned his head suddenly, "Then why did he die so many times?"
"Are you stupid?" the 'Old Sanda King' said impatiently, "Who can he beat in a head-on battle?
The seedling who wants to play as a thief must play as a mage. If he doesn’t die, who will die?
A mage needs a sense of direction to determine the location of the target. Does he have that ability?
In close combat, he is actually not weak.
The buffs given by the two goddesses are mainly based on his own talents... He can completely become a swordsman or assassin who adds buffs to his whole body in the future, and then cuts and stabs with swords."
"Ah..." 'Lu Huayu' understood what she meant, "So is it a skill like blending into shadows and blending into moonlight?
No wonder his eavesdropping skills are much better than before!"
He breathed a sigh of relief: "I also said, why have I regressed so much? It's okay."
The 'old Sanda King' curled his lips disdainfully: "Ha~ this is the point of attention~"
"Huh? Old dog..."
"Thing Lei, come here, long time no see, let's practice some skills." The 'Old Sanda King' flew up and kicked directly towards the silly cowherd who was talking so freely.
