"Of course the dracolich is dead." Mr. Lambert said, "If the family's main combat force had not gone to another location to deal with the matter, the evil dracolich would not have caused such a huge loss.
.So after the main force came back, they quickly contacted the Church of the God of War and killed the Dragon Lich together."
"Originally nothing would have happened if they were hiding in the basement of the family manor, but in order to protect the innocent people in the city, they led the guards to attack the dracolich to attract its attention, and then used the manor itself
Our defense held back the dracolich for nearly half an hour, buying enough time for the people to escape."
"They are real heroes, but father, why have you never introduced me to these great things that my grandparents have done before?" Lawrence asked curiously, because Mr. Lambert did say that his parents were
He is a hero, but he has never specifically said anything heroic.
"Because you were still young at that time, and after talking about your grandparents' heroic events, you have to talk about our family's situation. I think what I said at that time was not good for your growth, so I plan to tell everything when you become an adult.
You." At this point, Mr. Lambert smiled quite proudly.
"What I didn't expect is that you went to college and left home before you became an adult. So I never had time to tell you about it. In fact, if my brother hadn't been in trouble this time, after you returned to our house this time,
I will tell you these things."
"On the other hand," Mr. Lambert paused here, then stretched out his hand to touch his father's tombstone and said, "I left home because I had some conflicts with my family, so I have been arguing with my family.
There is a knot in our relationship. I think this is another reason why I haven’t told you about my family situation before.”
At this point, Mr. Lambert took a few steps forward and came to another tombstone, then pointed at the tombstone and said, "She is your mother, please bow to her."
Lawrence bowed seriously to the tombstone three times, then raised his head and looked at the tombstone. The tombstone was carved from a lively pink-blue stone. In the center of the tombstone was engraved a
Bust relief of young woman.
"My mother looks very gentle." Lawrence said after looking at the relief on the stone tablet. What was carved on this relief was a long-haired, round-faced woman wearing glasses. Judging from her face, she should be a very gentle woman.
"Yes, your mother is the most gentle and kind-hearted woman I have ever met." Mr. Lambert sighed. "And she is also a very smart person. Although she is not extraordinary,
But she is still among the best among her peers. For example, she was among the first batch of regular female college students in the Federation."
"Female college student?" Lawrence opened his eyes wide in surprise. As far as he knew, due to the existence of extraordinary powers, the world has done much better in terms of gender equality than he did in the same era in his previous life, but this does not mean that complete equality can be achieved.
For example, in terms of education, although there have been girls' schools for girls for a long time, they are more inclined to cultivate women's social etiquette and female skills, rather than providing academic education like formal universities.
That is, more than 20 years ago, the three powers of Hokuriku in the New World began to try to carry out educational reforms to allow women to enter universities like men. However, until now, men are still the majority in universities. It can be said that all women who can enter universities are elites, even average.
The level of their male classmates is higher than theirs.
"That's right, female college student. Her family is a hereditary knight family that owns a knight's manor, but she is the only one left in her generation." Mr. Lambert explained, "Your maternal grandparents died relatively early.
, so when she came of age, she found a son-in-law to marry in order to keep her noble title and property."
"But in the second year after she got married and went to school, her first husband died unexpectedly during a hunting trip. After that, another man who tried to marry her encountered a supernatural monster on the way to get engaged.
Killed during the attack. In addition, a baron who wanted her to be his lover was also executed by the church and completely deprived of his noble status because he was found guilty of colluding with the lower planes and robbing children for human sacrifice."
"This - father, you are indeed brave." Lawrence felt that his mother, whom he had never met before, could count his fate according to the previous life, which was a bit too harsh.
"No, I'm not brave. In fact, my marriage to your mother was arranged by your grandfather. You know, I am the second son who has no inheritance rights in the family. And nobles often like to arrange for the sons of their families who have no inheritance rights to marry.
As soon as they reach adulthood, they marry women with sufficient financial status, and the most popular marriage partners are wealthy widows." Mr. Lambert talked about the principles of marriage within the aristocracy.
"It sounds like—" Lawrence didn't know what to say next. After all, he knew that when descendants of nobles enjoyed the conveniences provided by various families, they would naturally have to pay a corresponding price.
"When I first heard that I was going to marry your mother, I was not happy, and even a little scared. Not to mention the various remarks about your mother that were not conducive to her husband and her age that were circulated in the aristocratic circles at that time.
She is nearly five years older than me, and the mere fact that I have never met her makes me feel very unhappy inside."
"But for me, who has enjoyed all the benefits of the family, I have no other choice." Mr. Lambert shrugged and said with a happy smile on his face. "I won't do it until I get married.
I find that thanks to this arrangement, I was able to get to know your mother."
"During that time, under the influence of your mother, I gave up my family's traditional belief in the God of War, became a priest of the God of Knowledge, and studied in a church school. On the other hand, I ran the Capital Cultural Center with your mother.
The manor house that belonged to her near Daubona was the happiest day of my life."
Although Mr. Lambert's tone was very calm when he said this, Lawrence could hear the significant influence of the mother he had never met on his father.
Unlike people like me who are not very interested in gods because their souls come from another world, the vast majority of people in this world are still full of respect for gods. Therefore, even if people can change their beliefs, people often choose to believe in many things.
A way to increase faith in a god, rather than directly giving up the old, even less pious, faith and becoming a cleric of another god.
While Lawrence was thinking about these questions, Mr. Lambert still spoke slowly at the same pace as before. "It's a pity that the happy life after marriage only lasts for two or three years. Your mother is pregnant with our first child."
He died of illness at that time.”
"This made me very sad, and I even completely closed myself off for a time, and attended your mother's funeral in a state of confusion. Fortunately, I slowly recovered under the inspiration of the gods, and at the same time I also knew that your mother's soul had entered my body.
The Lord’s Kingdom of God.”
"But not long after I recovered from the extreme grief, my father asked me to start a new marriage with his introduction. I didn't even consider that your mother died less than three months ago.
Because of this, your grandfather and I had a big fight for the first time in our lives."
"When your grandfather refused to give up his order, I chose to hand over the manor to the family as compensation for the family's training of me for so many years. Then I left home and went to the New World. What happened next?
I think you know everything."
At this point, Mr. Lambert sighed and fell into memories of the past. Lawrence stood quietly beside him and looked at the light blue tombstone.
