I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

Kenny looked at the barbecue his mother brought and a look of joy appeared on his face, but it did not last for a moment and his face turned pale again.

"Mother?!!"

"Ah."

The lady placed the barbecue in front of Kenny, peeled off the meat with a knife, and placed it in front of Kenny.

Kenny's expression was a little dull. He didn't eat the meat on the plate. Tears streamed down his cheeks. He picked up the piece of barbecue that had been cut into a corner and began to eat it in big mouthfuls. The taste of tears and barbecue mixed together, bitter and salty.

"Is it tasty?"

"good to eat."

During the meal, his voice was slightly choked.

The lady forked the meat from the plate and was about to put it to her mouth when Kenny grabbed her arm, but unfortunately the poison had already taken effect and his eyes stopped shedding tears and started to ooze black blood.

His strength was now not even as good as a woman's, but the lady still ate the barbecue.

Kenny fell down, and the lady held his head up and fixed his hair.

"Kenny, is there anything you want?"

"I want to take Dashi back. She's my sister. I'm worried about her being out there, ahem."

"Do you have any other wishes?"

"Mother, I want you to smile more, ahem, stop crying in front of Dashi's portrait every day, ahem."

"Okay, I'll smile more next time."

Kenny spat out black blood, his pupils began to dilate, and he began to lose his sight.

"Mother, I can't see you anymore."

The lady hugged Kenny and said with sobs:

"I'm next to you, Kenny, just like when we were little, we were always together, you're touching Dashie's head, Dashie is holding Aimee, and Dad and I are behind you."

"Mother, Father, Dashi, Aimee, where are you? All I can see is...darkness."

The raised hand fell, black tears flowed from the lady's eyes, and a smile remained on her face forever.

She completed the last task given to her by the lord, cleared away Aimee's stumbling block, and also fulfilled the child's wish, to smile forever.

The knights left by the lord were all good fighters, and Duke's knights were wiped out in a short time.

Duke is now in front of Aimee, and the two are talking across the fire.

"Knight Duke, I have a mission for you."

"Please speak, sir."

"I need someone to help me go to the capital and report to the king what happened in Razlan. I think you are the best person."

"Yes, Lord."

Duke didn't wait until the next day, he planned to leave the army directly, he didn't want to see the dead body of his disciple. What Kenny did seriously affected Aimee's prestige, he couldn't survive.

With tears in his slightly cloudy eyes, he looked at the blood flowing out of the tent and left the army with his luggage.

The knight left by the old lord came to Aimee and handed her a seal. Aimee took a look at the emblem, which was an iris. The lord of Razlan came from the giant wolf family, so people called him the Count of Giant Wolf, but Razlan's emblem has always been an iris.

The knights began to recite the oath of allegiance, and Aimee was awakened. It turned out that now she was the real lord of Razlan. Her last name came from the giant wolf Stark, but she was not the earl of the giant wolf, she was the earl of Iris.

The knight in front of him took off his helmet, revealing an old man inside. This was the last thing the lord left for Aimee, and it was his final trump card.

"I accept your allegiance. Please stand up."

"Yes."

Aimee did not return to Bennett's carriage, but got into the lady's carriage, and the knights continued to guard outside the carriage.

"My Lord, the lady and Kenny have already gone."

"Does mother look sad?"

"The lady died smiling."

"This must be Kenny's request. Among the three of us siblings, he is closest to our mother. I understand. You can leave now."

"What about the lady and Kenny's bodies?"

"Skin Kenny and hang him on the flag, ma'am... cremate the rest of his body, ma'am and Kenny, and scatter them together in the woods."

"Yes."

Kenny, mother, I hope this snowstorm can bring your souls to the arms of the two gods.

After a long prayer, Aimee picked up the book that the lady had read. It was the lord's notes. The page she opened was about what he had done to the lady's territory.

After reading this history in silence, Aimee gained a new understanding of the lord and his lady, and also came to terms with her mother's death.

It's good to die, it's good like this.

Outside the carriage, heavy snow was still falling. The wind blew over the fire, making crackling and whistling sounds. The people huddled in their small tents. What happened before had nothing to do with them, and they didn't care who the lord was.

Whoever becomes the lord will not affect the lives of the people below.

The next morning, the team set off on the thick snow.

The color of the ashes is slightly different from that of the snow, but no one would notice that a patch of snow had changed color.

……

In a small town far away, the territory of a viscount, people came out in groups and began to clean the fallen snow in front of their doors.

A wizard walked into a not-so-busy street, and people were observing this wizard who came from nowhere.

The town has just over 10,000 people, and almost all the neighbors know each other. It is a bit strange that a cloaked wizard came out of nowhere.

The guard took a look at the mage and sent someone to report to the lord. For a viscount's territory, mages were a scarce talent and the knights in the territory did not have rune armor yet.

After a while, the Viscount's butler came to the wizard:

"This wizard, what is your name?"

The wizard took off his hood, revealing dry white hair, scraggly stubble, and a pair of white glowing eyes filled with indifference, loneliness, emptiness and death.

The old butler's smile froze on his face. The visitor did not have good intentions.

The guards on the side also clenched their weapons.

The wizard looked around, and his sight finally stopped on the old butler.

"My name is Mervyn."

The old butler wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was terrified, but he still had to bite the bullet and complete the viscount's task.

"The Viscount would like to invite you to the Lord's Court. If possible, you can become the territory mage here."

The old butler stuttered as he spoke. He was extremely frightened. The wizard's scary eyes were staring at him.

Mervyn looked at the trembling old butler and said without any emotion:

"I will go to see him later, but before I see him, I want to leave a gift in this territory."

The old butler instinctively felt that something was wrong and quietly made a gesture to the back. A knight quietly withdrew and he went to call for help.

"I wonder what kind of gift it is? Can I open it at the Lord's mansion? The Lord will definitely give you the best hospitality."

"No, this gift needs to be in the center of town."

The wizard's words made everyone even more frightened. Looking at the wizard's eyes emitting a strange white light, no one dared to stop the wizard from walking towards the center of the town.

The wizard stopped in the town square.

"I'm going to show you my gift."

The old butler wiped the sweat from his forehead and said carefully:

"Please, please."

At this time, the knight who had left also came with his men. Thirty or forty people surrounded the mage, but unfortunately Mervin was not afraid at all.

"are you ready?"

Seeing so many people coming, the old butler felt more confident.

"Evil wizard, don't try to harm anyone. I won't let your evil plan succeed."

"Hahaha, come on, look at the gift I gave you, come on, stop me, just like a hero in a fairy tale."

Dense blue runes lit up on the ground, and a strange magical power enveloped the entire town.

The corpse of a giant dragon fell from the sky.
