Seeing such a scene, Butler Fred, who was standing in the corner of the house, couldn't help but reveal a wry smile and shook his head slightly.
Lord William's love for his son is well-deserved.
On weekdays, the earl always has a serious expression and does not show anger or authority. After the servants in the territory spoke to him, they were all trembling and uneasy.
However, as soon as he saw his son, especially the young master Alan York in front of him, Earl William seemed to be a completely different person. He smiled extremely happily and no longer had the usual annoying smile.
His intimidating aura makes him look like an ordinary father from an ordinary family.
"Perhaps the Earl misses his deceased wife too much!" Butler Fred guessed silently in his mind, "After all, Master Allen is the one who looks most similar to Mrs. Carmen among all the Earl's sons.
"
As for Earl William, he was staring at Allen at this time, looking at him carefully.
Although, only a few months had passed since the last time they met.
But Earl William felt that a long, long time had passed.
Because he clearly felt that Allen's temperament seemed to have matured a lot in the past few months.
From a boy to a man.
A few months ago, Allen was still a silly kid who was obsessed with learning magic, but was depressed because of his limited talent.
But now, all the gloom and immaturity on Allen's face have been swept away, replaced by a kind of calmness that is unfazed and unhurried.
Looking at Ellen's face, which was quite similar to Mrs. Carmen, Count William was deeply moved.
He once thought that if Allen spent his whole life doing nothing, then he would try his best to fulfill the obligations of a father and let Allen live a simple and happy life with no worries about food and clothing.
But now, Allen is doing nothing but becoming a blockbuster.
Whether he single-handedly defeated the enemy at the naval base or now became the master of the mage tower, Earl William was shocked.
He felt that his son had been remade in the factory.
"Alan, first of all, congratulations on becoming the new Master of the Mage Tower," Earl William said with a smile, "Before we talk about business, we have to celebrate first."
Immediately, Earl William looked at Butler Fred in the corner and ordered him: "Fred, bring me the bottle of champagne in the cellar!"
"As you command, Your Majesty the Earl." Butler Fred saluted.
To be honest, Butler Fred was a little surprised when he heard this order.
Because the champagne in the cellar of the villa was brewed by Madame Carmen herself many years ago. After Madam Carmen passed away, Count William never touched them again.
And today, Count William once again took out these champagne bottles for the first time.
It can be seen that the Earl's attitude towards Young Master Allen is really different.
"Thank you." Allen smiled.
Since Earl William said this, he simply put aside those troublesome political affairs for the time being, then stepped forward and poured a glass of champagne for himself and Earl William respectively.
"To be honest, Allen," after the two clinked glasses, Earl William raised his glass and said to Allen, "Not long ago, when you left without saying goodbye and quietly ran to an alien plane, I was very worried.
At that time, I kept thinking, you brat, you have really never given me any peace of mind since I was a kid.
"But fortunately, not only did you come back safe and sound, but you also became a powerful magician famous throughout the country. If your mother was still alive in the world, she would be very happy..."
Allen didn't speak, just sipping the champagne in the glass and listening to him quietly.
Allen had to admit that over the years, Earl William had become both a father and a mother, and he was almost becoming more nagging than a middle-aged woman when in front of his children.
Five minutes later, Earl William finally stopped talking about his family's shortcomings. Instead, he sat back on the sofa, suppressed the smile on his face, and said to Allen:
"Alan, you must be writing to me this time because you have something very important to discuss with me! As long as it is within my ability, I will do my best to help you."
Allen also sat down on the sofa opposite him. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Father, I am currently working with Queen Margaret to formulate the next battle plan. But you should also know that the new and old Braden Kingdom
The nobles of the two parties are not completely united. There are many contradictions and differences among them, and many people are dissatisfied with Queen Margaret's personal participation in political affairs.
"I am very worried that we will encounter great resistance in dealing with the next war."
Hearing Allen's words, Earl William suddenly started laughing.
"It turns out it's just such a small thing!" I heard Earl William say with a smile, "I thought it was some big and difficult thing. Otherwise, how could it be so difficult to defeat you, a famous eighth-level magician and mage Tata?
host?"
Allen said calmly: "This is called specialization in a skill."
"There are specialties in the arts... This is an interesting statement," Earl William said, gently shaking the glass in his hand, "but you have indeed found the right person.
"Alan, you don't need to worry about this anymore, just leave it to me! Just give me a week, and I will show you a Kingdom of Brayden with unified opinions and an arm in command."
"Then I'll just wait for the good news!" Allen smiled.
At the same time, he thought to himself that his wealthy and cheap father spoke just as arrogantly as himself. Sure enough, money can give people confidence!
"By the way, father," Allen suddenly thought of something important, "Queen Margaret has recently had the idea of reorganizing the cabinet, and she also wants to ask if you are willing to serve as the new prime minister of the Braden Kingdom?"
"Reorganize the cabinet? This young queen is very ambitious," Earl William commented after hearing Allen's words, "But let me be the prime minister, forget it! This kind of thankless position is dedicated to helping people
It is better to hide behind the scenes than to take the blame."
Allen smiled and replied: "I think so too. Besides, in the same family, if the father is the prime minister and the son is the master of the mage tower, it will definitely attract a lot of jealous eyes. So I simply rejected the queen."
"So smart!" Earl William gave him a thumbs up, as if praising a child who had just gotten a perfect score in the math test.
Then, Earl William seemed to suddenly remember something important, and continued: "By the way, Alan, don't get too close to Queen Margaret in the future."
