The Origin of Arcane

Hey, if you don't tell me, I've already forgotten about it. I heard that the lord of the Yongye Army is very young, similar to little Sophilia, and has never been married. If little Sophilia marries him, how can we Not a family? Can’t good things be shared?”

You just sold little Sophia for these extraneous possessions? Doesn't your conscience ache?

What does it mean to sell little Sophilia? Little Sophilia hasn't married yet, don't you worry? If she were from an ordinary family, she would be the mother of five or six children at her current age. Yes, the longer it drags on, the fewer men are suitable for her, now there is one, of course we must hold on tightly.

Okay, stop talking. The more you talk, the more ridiculous it becomes. This is a military meeting, not discussing marriage leave, nor is it about bandits sharing spoils. General Esmond waved his hand, marking the end of the discussion, Your Majesty , I'm afraid it's inappropriate to leave Broken Blood Castle at this time, right?

Grand Duke Cedric shook his head and said: It doesn't matter, this war will not develop into a full-scale war within a year or so. No matter how weak the Eastern Odin Empire is, it is not to the point where it can be broken with a single poke. Before that, It's not the best time for us to intervene in this war, but it is to blackmail those bastards, otherwise we will be involved in the war, let alone pay attention to them.

Esmond lowered his head and thought for a moment, this is also the reason.

It's useless to talk about morality and reason with those bastards in the south. They don't think they have the belief that they will defend Blood Fort Brokenmouth to the death. This might not be a good way.

And if you want to interfere in this war, you can't do it without sufficient logistical supplies. This is the greatest tragedy for this group of soldiers. If you want to fight a big battle, you have to go out to make friends with others first.

If your Majesty goes to the south, will you bring Arnold back by the way? This kind of large-scale battle cannot be done without his spear. Esmond cautiously suggested.

Don't mention this bastard to me. If I catch him, I'll be the first to break his leg. Grand Duke Cedric slammed the table and said with an angry face, This bastard got into trouble and ran away. , where do I put this old face? How can I face my brother after I die?

Arnold did go a little too far this time. Esmond cleared his throat, and said in full agreement, The previous runaway, which was an out-and-out cowardly act, ruined all of us Strachey. The face of the family is nothing more than yard to yard, and the war is important now, and when this war is over, I will personally escort him and marry Mrs. Margaret.

Esmond winked at General Pedro while persuading him. This is the best time, if he doesn't persuade the old man at this time, there will be no chance in the future.

Although General Pedro didn't want to get involved in the family affairs of the Strachey family, he had to say that Arnold, that war lunatic, was indeed a member of the Broken Blood Cavalry. It was completely different with him and without him. The second time, if they really fully intervene in the war between the two Odin Empires, they might have to rely on the crazy momentum of the other side.

After a little hesitation, General Pedro also gently advised: Your Majesty, after all, this kind of thing is what you want. General Arnold's temperament is not a day or two. Mrs. Margaret is willing to have a relationship with him. , you should be prepared to face this situation.”

What? You are still defending him? Could it be that I was wrong? Grand Duke Cedric's eyes were wide open, and he seemed to pour his anger on General Pedro.

General Pedro shook his head again and again: I don't mean to defend him, I just want to say that things have already happened, what we should think about now is how to solve things, General Arnold won't come back for a day, Margaret The madam has to hang up and down. Once the child is born, it will be bad for the reputation of the two families. It is better to find a way to get them married. When they have a family and a child, they will have concerns. It is not impossible Let Arnold take it easy.

As far as his prodigal virtue, will he take care of the child? Grand Duke Cedric snorted, obviously not believing that Arnold could make changes so easily, but after all, his anger was not as strong as before.

The reason why Grand Duke Cedric was so angry was because Arnold had lost face to the Strachey family this time. After all, what happened to him was not big or small.

Although Mrs. Margaret was married, her husband had been killed in battle for many years and had been a widow. It was not too immoral to hang out with Arnold.

What annoyed Duke Cedric the most was that Mrs. Margaret's husband had followed him for many years and died in battle because of one of his wrong orders.

Grand Duke Cedric always felt ashamed of his family. He usually took good care of his family. Fortunately, his son took care of the widowed young lady to the bed, and ran to him with a big belly to urge the marriage. His old face All of a sudden there is nowhere to put it.

In addition, Arnold has too many bad roots in the past, and among the many sons, he has always been the one that Duke Cedric valued the most.

As a result, no one could be found at all, and Arnold slipped away early.

I don't know whether I am afraid of facing the anger of Grand Duke Cedric, or the urging of marriage from Mrs. Sugaret.

Regardless of the reason, one thing is certain, his irresponsible behavior has completely annoyed Grand Duke Cedric, who regards responsibility as the most important thing.

For a long time, no one in Broken Blood Castle dared to mention the name Arnold, for fear of offending the tyrant.

But Arnold's ability and reliability on the field are obvious to all.

The war is approaching, and everyone prefers to have this lucky young God of War sitting in command.

Where is that bastard now? Although Grand Duke Cedric did not explicitly say that he would spare Arnold, his attitude undoubtedly eased a lot when he asked this.

The last time he showed up was at little Sophilia's place, but after being questioned by little Sophilia, he showed his own timidity and ran away after staying for a long time. The last time he showed up was at the city of Angelbena, the leader of the Man Yu army. After that, no one saw him again, and there are two possibilities for him to avoid our sight, one is to go out to sea by boat, and the other is to enter the Eternal Night Army. General Esmond He replied without hesitation, From his appearance in Angel Bena City, it is more likely that he will go to the latter.

Are you sure? Grand Duke Cedric was not satisfied with General Esmond's ambiguous answer.

There is a 90% possibility that he has the best relationship with little Sophilia, and they usually exchange letters. Over the years, he has shown a strong interest in the new rising power in the Andes, especially Yong Ye. The military leader actually used the new weapon to win the alliance between the Kingsley family who used the battle artifact and the Commons family who used the dragon skeleton warship. He will definitely investigate, especially the manufacturing method of that new weapon. If you don’t get it, you won’t be Arnold.” General Esmond said with a smile, “If Arnold can bring back this new method of weapon manufacturing, it will be considered a meritorious deed.”

Nonsense! Grand Duke Cedric turned angry.

General Esmond was taken aback by the other party's abnormal reaction, and said in confusion: Your Majesty has already seen the power of this new weapon, if it can be used on a large scale, it will definitely greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of our Blood Castle. Returning to the formula is definitely a good thing, how is it nonsense?

The leader of the Eternal Night Army is now a staunch ally of little Sophilia. Little Sophilia has been trying to get the black powder formula in her hands. She has never let go because of confidentiality reasons. Since the war with the Kingsley family ended, Everyone in the world has seen the power of black powder, and began to think of ways to reverse it, so the young lord's tone became less tight, and with little Sophilia's means, it is not difficult to get it. Grand Duke Cedric said again He slapped the table loudly, What kind of secretive means does Arnold use for something that can be obtained through trade means? Once the other party finds out, how do you ask me to explain it? How do you ask little Sophia to explain it? To be honest , how much do you know about this matter?

This time it was General Esmond's turn to be dumbfounded. After hesitating for a few seconds, he still didn't dare to hide it: According to the informant, the news that Arnold inquired in Anjibena City is all about the merchant ships led by the Yongye Army. I miss him. I want to enter the Yongye Army through this method.

What do you want me to say about you? Why didn't you report this matter to me immediately? Grand Duke Cedric asked through gritted teeth.

General Esdmond opened his mouth, but he couldn't answer for a long time. He couldn't say, old man, you were angry at the time, and you were in a hurry with anyone who dared to tell you about Arnold. There was no way to tell.

Forget it, you don't need to worry about this matter. Grand Duke Cedric waved his hand. He knew that he was also responsible for this matter, so he shouldn't let that little bastard Arnold run around. Know how many bastards he left outside for the Strachey family.

Strachey, a family that passed on the name of knights, how could there be such a freak?

Grand Duke Cedric, who was disturbed by Arnold's news, was in no mood to continue this military meeting, and made a decision: All Rangers cancel their rotation, let me spread them all, not only keep an eye on those of Theodin Empire Don’t let the East Odin Empire’s every move be ignored, this matter is still followed up by General Esmond, especially the two royal courts, I want to know their precise monthly camping points.”

Of order, Your Majesty. General Esmond ordered in a loud voice.

The defense of Broken Blood Castle is entrusted to you, General Pedro. I want every soldier and every horse to be in the best condition, every weapon to be polished to the sharpest point, every pair of armor They are all maintained to the strongest strength, and can be attacked at any time.

Of order, Your Majesty. General Pedro stood up and took orders.

General Yasvis, I'll leave the matter of military supplies to you. I don't care what method you use, but at least I can raise 200,000 troops for three months.

Obey, Your Majesty. The general with a slightly distressed expression complied. He didn't know whether he was born with such a face, or he was worried about the impossible task arranged by Grand Duke Cedric. But at this time, even if he couldn't complete it, he couldn't. To say no, I only hope that Grand Duke Cedric will be more helpful this time when he goes south, and come back with more supplies.

General Castle, General of the Austrian League, the task of patrolling the border gates on the east and west borders is entrusted to you. I want to make sure that the soldiers are not relaxed because of the absence of war in these years, and they can respond to my summoning orders at any time. .”

Of order, Your Majesty. The two young generals stood up at the same time to accept the order.

As for the two of you. Grand Duke Cedric did not forget that there were two temporary members at the military meeting, You will go south with me and still temporarily command the original rangers. I will give you a week to adjust your status. Wait for my order anytime.

Of order, Your Majesty. Captain Yales and Captain South, who had been restless all this time, got up and took orders at the same time.

Perform the mission. Grand Duke Cedric waved his hand.

After paying a military salute, the generals of Broken Blood Castle left one after another. Only General Esmond stayed at the end and did not leave for a long time.

Is there anything else? Grand Duke Cedric looked up at his eldest son.

General Esmond hesitated for a moment and said: I don't know what father wants to do, but it is somewhat inappropriate to promote a soldier in such a way, especially if he is going to bring him with him. After all, he has just graduated from college. Grassland back.

In private, the relationship between General Esmond and Grand Duke Cedric was less official.

Even if he has a problem, it is on the prairie. I will take them to the south now, and there will be no problem. As for the promotion, I haven't considered it for the time being. I will talk about it when I come back from the south. Grand Duke Cedric replied with a smile, Don't worry, a little captain, even if something goes wrong, he won't be able to jump out of my palm. Your father is not that old yet.

It's good for father to know. General Esmond nodded and said, When is father planning to leave for the south?

One week at the fastest, two weeks at the slowest, and no more than three weeks at the latest. Grand Duke Cedric sighed softly, We are also racing against time. There is news from Valesta, little Sophie Liya is ready to let go and push Prince Laurie to power.

So early? General Esmond was taken aback. Isn't it one and a half years before Prince Laurie officially comes of age?

Princess Regent Sophilia is the biggest supporter of Blood Castle at the moment. If she steps down, their life will be even more difficult.

Not only is Sophilia close enough to them, but also because she grew up in Blood Castle, and even followed Grand Duke Cedric to the prairie, and is very aware of the threat Odin orcs pose to the Byron Alliance.

After Prince Laurie came to power, everything is unknown.

Not only is the young prince elusive, but he is more easily influenced by other members of the Lancelot royal family.

If possible, Broken Blood Castle would like Sophie Liya to sit in this position forever.

Little Sophilia must have her own considerations for doing this, but this is a situation we have to face sooner or later, but sooner or later. Grand Duke Cedric is obviously more open than General Esmond, This is for us It's not all a bad thing, at least we can get to know the young prince in advance, and if something goes wrong, little Sophilia can still play around with it and buy us more time to prepare.

So, father's trip is not only to settle accounts with those lords and nobles, but also for the new king? Esmond said as if he had realized something.

It seems that the changes in the Theodin Empire just happened at the right time. Regardless of whether there is such a thing or not, just based on the news of the new king, Grand Duke Cedric will go to Valesta.

That's right. Grand Duke Cedric nodded and said, Marrying with the royal family and ensuring that the royal family has the blood of the Strachey family is the key to maintaining the stability of the entire northern situation. The previous generation was born with your sister Ariel. The problem can only be found in the new generation, let Jennifer and Beverly get ready to go to the capital with me.

Jennifer and Beverly? General Esmond said with a bit of embarrassment on his face, Jennifer has Odin orc blood on her body, and Beverly is only twelve years old this year, maybe it's not suitable?

Jennifer is the granddaughter of General Esmond, and Beverly is the youngest daughter of the third son of Grand Duke Cedric.

Grand Duke Cedric sighed helplessly: The two of them are already the closest in age, and Jennifer should be the most suitable candidate, but there are always so many short-sighted people in the world who hinder them, so Beverly can only be used as a backup Choice, it is their responsibility to be born into the Strachey family.

General Esmond could only keep silent. The unique identity of a mixed race might have troubled him when he was young, but it no longer does.

As Grand Duke Cedric told himself when he was a child, what kind of person you want to be is not determined by your birth and blood, but by what kind of person you want to be.

General Esmond can now say to all questioning eyes that he has become the person he wants to be. He is not ashamed of his bloodline, but proud of it. With this unique bloodline, he has accomplished A task that ordinary people do not complete.

Due to the gradual increase of the unique group of mixed races in Blood Fortress, and their unique contributions, those rough men no longer looked at them as aliens.
