"The Haines family, chosen by the oracle, is the shield of the empire.

The males in the family have the only legitimate bloodline, and the females in the family have the only imperial star..."

"The star is a symbol of the family's prosperity and a shield that continues the empire."

13 years ago, the Duke and the Lord, who had not yet separated, gave birth to their respective eldest sons on the same day.

The real child was born by the unpopular Duchess carrying the Duke's child on her back. In order to survive, he was sent out of the Duke's Palace at a very young age to wander outside.

False Orthodoxy is the child born to the Lady Lord. With his innate healing power, he has always been the center of attention.

Although I don't know how the false orthodoxy can have healing power...

But he is fake after all.

...

The two children were still wrestling with each other, and the main argument was "You punch me, I kick you."

Sheen grabbed Xiren's arm that was holding the brooch with his left hand, bent Xiren's arm upwards, and then pressed him down with one hand.

Then he turned around and rode on Xilun, pinned Xilun's arms behind his back, and then slapped Xilun in the face several times with his right hand.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

"To deal with naughty kids: beat them up first, then explain!"

Click!

Xiren was slammed to the ground by Sheen.

The maids gathered around them, but no one dared to pull Sheen up.

After being pinned to the ground, Xilun struggled hard, but he met an expert - Jiaming is a ninth-dan free-sparing player in real life!

As you can imagine...

DUANG!

Xilun was hit hard:

"what--!"

(Desire to win UP!)

Sheen's fists pounded on Xilun so hard that even outsiders could hear the pain.

“It hurts, ah!”

click!

"I told you to take over the magpie's nest, I told you to take Xien's place.

I told you to be so crazy! 」

Finally, Xien stepped on Xiren's head, panting and shouting with a broken voice:

"Really hit me——"

"You are a greenhouse-raised weakling. Can you compare with me in combat power?"

The suppressed fake young master had no power to fight back and allowed the real young master to press him to the ground with his feet.

"Father, Xien bullied me, he bullied me..."

Xiren started crying in pain, but no matter how he struggled, Xien would not let go.

"... "

The Duke stood aside, took a deep breath, and his deep blue eyes widened, his face dark with anger.

"enough!"

The Duke shouted, and all was silent.

"Xien! Get up right now and apologize immediately!"

Alas, bad luck:

"Who said that a bad father is the standard for this kind of plot?"

The Duke continued chattering:

"You just came here and you're already doing this. How can other family members accept you?

"You are bringing shame to our family..."

The Duke thought that yelling at Sean would make him obedient, but Sean started arguing with the Duke:

"Are you blind? You were beaten by someone, and you went back. Isn't that normal?"

ding dong~

Xien and the system (formerly Xien) heard the prompt tone and turned to look at the display screen——

"The Duke's heart has changed, the host's prestige +2"

Xien was stunned, and kept winking at the system: Can I improve my qualifications by bullying the villain?

The system waved its hands: This is your first time traveling through a book, and it’s also my first time being a system, so I don’t know much either.

but...

Xien/System: Things seem to be getting interesting (evil face)~

"Shut up!"

The Duke raised his hand to slap Sheen, but Sheen stopped him and pointed at him and cursed him.

"Take your hands away!"

Sheen decided to try to see if moral blackmail could increase his qualifications:

“I’m struggling out there, and every fight is just to make it through until the day you take me away.

"What about you? You bring Xi Lun here to drink tea and enjoy yourself, and you treat him as your own son. Doesn't your conscience hurt? You are so biased!"

The servants present all widened their eyes when they heard what Xien said:

"Didn't the Duke say that Sean is a legitimate child born to a collateral relative..."

"Look, Sheen looks like the Duchess. He is the Duchess's child."

"Is it because the Duchess is crazy that she hates her children?"

The servants' comments were all about condemning the negligent father who stood in the center from the moral high ground.

The Duke stood in the center of the crowd, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, his body shaking.

A new prompt box is here——

"Detected that the character 'Duke' has slightly lost the support of the people, 'Protagonist''s' strategy +2"

drop~

The system prompt sound came again——

"The maids are wavering, the host's courage +1"

drop~

"Initial mission successful, unlock reward: Loyal Steward."

Xien's eyes lit up:

"What a magical system! I love it!"

When I came to my senses and looked at the Duke, he had lowered his raised right hand and was clenching it tightly.

He lowered his head and stared at Xien with his deep blue eyes, as if his eyes wanted to devour Xien.

"You held on until the day I took you back."

The Duke's tone softened.

"Our father-son relationship needs time to improve, but I can't mistreat Xilun. Let him go and apologize to him..."

Duke Atholle Haines is the villain of the novel, and it is his inaction that leads to Sheen's tragic end.

(Bad dad, bad dad...)

Is this a father-son relationship?

no!

I don’t buy it.

Xien wiped away the tears that had been squeezed out, lowered his head and smiled evilly:

“Hahaha, hahaha!”

Click!

"what!"

Xiren's little finger was broken directly by Xien's left hand - you are not qualified to bargain with me.

The Duke was completely confused by this operation.

He stood there and could only stare at Sheen, letting Sheen negotiate the terms.

Xien "has a life in his hands" and grabbed Xiren's head and threatened:

"Give you two choices,

“First, let Xilun apologize and admit that I am your biological son and the true heir to the Duke’s Mansion, and then kick Xilun out!

"Second, give me a large sum of money, and I will leave here and not fight with Xilun...

"…But you didn't realize that you abandoned your own son and favored someone else's son. If the whole empire knew about this, would you be able to afford the shame?"

Although the Duke’s power is great, the reader knows his weakness—

Atole is a man who cares a lot about his reputation. What he values ​​most is the interests and reputation of his family.

The scandal of "favoring the fake young master and destroying the real young master" spread to the social circle, and the Duke could never hold his head up for the rest of his life.

Gudong…

The Duke swallowed and whispered tremblingly:

"Xien, do you have to be so heartless?"

The display screen popped up again——

"The Duke's inner wavering is detected, the 'protagonist' has +2 physical strength"

"Oh my god, isn't the Duke a living victim of leek cutting?"

When Xien thought of this, he looked down at Xilun, who was dying.

"But looking at this little guy, if I continue to fight, I'm afraid I'll just get killed, right?"

Xien grabbed Xiren's hand. He could feel that Xiren had no strength to struggle:

"Although it's a bit troublesome, I can slowly torture the fake young master to death.

It’s interesting, isn’t it?”

A sneer escaped Sheen's lips.

click!

He stepped hard on Xiren and then took his foot away, but still sat on Xiren.

"I'll tell you this, Duke,"

Xien stared at Xiren's gaze.

"It's either him or me in the Haines family, or it's either me or him!"
