From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Chapter 214 Victor's Past

The noble lady who had a secret crush on Victor was named Nina Binbinhua, a viscount noble from the Marquis of Frostwolf.

Her father, the clan leader Carl Binbinhua, was a powerful being with the strength of an earth knight.

The Binbinhua family was not an old noble family in the traditional sense, but a new noble family that was personally enfeoffed by the Marquis of Frostwolf in recent years after Carl Binbinhua was promoted to an earth knight.

This type of noble family has a notable feature, that is, they do not pay much attention to the family background of family members, but pay more attention to personal character and ability.

This concept is not difficult to understand. After all, they themselves have also been promoted to their current status through unremitting efforts, so they will have a higher sense of identity with those who have also achieved success with their own talents and fighting spirit.

However, it is regrettable that Victor does not seem to have these two key factors.

Although he no longer has the surname of the Sunflower Family, the fact is that Victor's growth and development cannot be separated from the large amount of resources provided by the family and the Dragon Breath Knights.

Of course, this does not deny that Victor has worked hard in the process of cultivation, but judging from the current situation, he still lacks sufficient persuasiveness.

Moreover, as a newly promoted noble, Carl Binjuhua does not have a good impression of the Dragon Breath Knights.

Many people in the Golden Grand Duchy think that they are just a group of handsome men who can only show off their beauty, or the Grand Duke's pretty boy guard of honor.

Although these names are a bit exaggerated, they can also reflect people's views on the Dragon Breath Knights.

Only those old nobles know the reason and original intention of the establishment of the Dragon Breath Knights, but they can't waste their breath for the Dragon Breath Knights. The Grand Duke did not take action to stop it, but they did. Doesn't that make them seem to be overstepping?

Although the Dragon Breath Knights themselves are very powerful, they are still questioned and despised by many people because of this bad image.

Even most members of the Dragon Breath Knights have gradually accepted this concept, which further confirms their name of pretty boys.

Finally, Victor himself has some problems.

He has a dispute with the Sunflower Family, which makes Carl dislike him.

Although Carl was not afraid of the Sunflower Family, he was only a viscount after all, and he did not want to offend a count family because of Victor.

When he learned that his daughter Nina and Victor had feelings for each other, he was very angry and locked Nina in the room to prevent her from continuing to contact Victor.

Not only that, he also came to the door in person and warned Victor in front of the Dragon Breath Knights not to approach his daughter again.

Krober also knew what happened later. At the birthday party, Grand Duke Veronica decided to go to war with the Mountain Copper Kingdom, and the nobles present began to prepare for the war.

Carl was naturally the same. He left his wife and children in the manor of Saint Gold Castle, and followed the Grand Duke to the Emerald Kingdom for an expedition.

During the expedition, Victor also tried to meet Nina Binbinhua. It was not for bad ideas such as elopement. He just wanted to confirm whether Nina had enough affection for him.

If so, he would try to make Carl recognize him even if he had to pay everything, so that he could marry Nina openly.

But unfortunately, Victor never saw Nina again.

This incident has been bothering him. From that day on, he has not had a good sleep, and he was confused during training and patrolling.

After hearing this, Krober gave him a hug as comfort.

"You were distracted while standing guard, and you talked to me so much, wasting my time. You have no resources for cultivation this month."

Victor, who was just immersed in the hug with Krober, was stunned by his sudden words. He widened his eyes and asked in disbelief:

"Ah?? Are you a human?"

Hearing that his cultivation resources for this month were deducted, Victor jumped three feet high and complained wildly to Krober.

But Kloeber showed a satisfied smile and said:

"Well... Is this the Victor I know? The previous look of being slapped should not appear on you."

Victor was silent for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and said:

"Although I am very grateful for your comfort and I know you want to cheer me up, but isn't your method a bit too scary?"

Kloeber tilted his head.

"Who said it was to cheer you up? I really deducted your cultivation resources."

"Kloeber, I XXX!"

"Hey, insulting the lord, you don't want the cultivation resources for this year?"

Feeling threatened, Victor closed his mouth.

"You are so cruel, Kloeber, I am in your hands."

Kloeber shrugged his shoulders.

As a lord, rewards and punishments are one of the basic principles of managing the territory, and you cannot be partial because of personal relationships.

Although he and Victor have a deep friendship, it does not mean that Victor's recent mistakes can be ignored.

Deducting Victor's resource share for the month is not only a personal punishment for him, but also a warning to others, letting them know that only hard work can get the due rewards.

"Victor, I am going to give you an important task now."

Klober suddenly put on a serious expression, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

Victor saw this and immediately straightened his back and replied respectfully:

"Please give me your orders, Lord!"

At this moment, Victor looked like a loyal knight, ready to obey the Lord's orders at any time.

Looking at Victor, who was full of energy and serious attitude, Klober nodded with satisfaction and expressed his approval.

"Now, kneel down to me."

When Victor heard Klober's order, he was stunned for a moment, but suddenly he seemed to remember something, and knelt on one knee in front of Klober with a look of surprise, put his right fist on his chest, and performed a solemn knight's salute to Klober.

"Victor, since you have participated in several military operations with me before and have made certain contributions in them.

I, the benevolent Earl of the Amethyst Islands, Krober Amethyst Rose, have decided to generously grant you a follower.

Although you do not have the right to use Amethyst Rose as your surname, you can proudly call yourself a member of the Amethyst Rose family."

Looking at Victor half-kneeling on the ground, Krober hesitated for a moment and continued:

"In addition, I will personally go to the Binbinhua family as your lord to meet with Carl Binbinhua and try to promote your marriage with Miss Winnie."
