Ivan closed his eyes and thought.

indeed,

Although Arthur has a title, it is not a good idea to hide away because of the cruelty of the two people who killed him many years ago...

"Arthur can only rest when the duke and lord are dead."

but...

Arthur suddenly changed his expression and excitedly announced to Ivan:

"And I'm here not only for the fact that 'Arthur is still alive', but also to make it easier for me to enter the southern business community and snatch their business. I think that's a good idea too!"

Eh...

Ivan is overwhelmed by Arthur's optimism:

"Uncle, you are really capable of doing this."

As expected, for businessmen, profit is the most important thing.

"Sheen is quite capable," Arthur smiled and put his hat on.

In public, he certainly knows how to speak in moderation.

"I took Sheen in when he was 13 years old. At that time, he already understood that my brothers didn't take him seriously at all..."

"That's why he came to you..."

Before Ivan could finish his words, he heard Arthur's truth.

Arthur put his hands on his hips, lowered his head and said helplessly:

"At first, I didn't want to take on this tough job. Especially after I knew that Sheen was Atole's child,

I really want to kill him.”

Ivan stared with eyes wide open.

Didn’t Arthur say at first, “It was I who took the initiative to adopt you”?

"I know you're surprised, but let me finish,"

Arthur smiled at Ivan.

After so many years, Sheen has grown up. Arthur thinks it is better to tell the truth:

"Actually, Romos came to me with the guardianship documents. The document has Atole's name on it, and the guardianship will take effect as long as I sign it."

Moreover, the custody transfer document did not have a specific date written on it, which meant that Atole wanted to abandon Sheen directly.

"You know, I don't have any children. And Sheen is Atol's child, it's hard for me not to be prejudiced against him. Looking at Atol's signature on the document, the thought that came to my mind was..."

"How bad can a child who is abandoned by his own father become?"

Ivan (Sheen) was stunned after hearing this comment:

"So, at first, uncle just wanted to use Sheen to contain Atole...?"

Arthur gave Ivan a thumbs-up.

But then he folded his hands over his chest, closed his eyes and sighed:

"That's what I thought before, but then it changed..."

Arthur's mind flashed back to him standing next to Olive, looking at Sean (13) who was only a few steps away from him:

The same soft and dazzling golden hair and fair skin as him.

The bright (brown) eyes looked up at him.

He stared at the spot with eyes wide open.

This special blonde hair...it's not an exaggeration to say that it's my own...

What is striking is Sheen's body shape: his short stature indicates that no one cared about him for the first 13 years, and his thinness indicates that he stayed in the Duke's Mansion for half a year.

My cheap dad never cared about Sean’s diet!

At that time, Arthur was in a state of confusion:

"Just because Xien has the same blond hair as me, Atole and Alex ignored him and even turned right and wrong to train Xien to be like Alex?"

"The genuine golden hair is obviously a blessing from the gods, so why do those who possess it suffer so much?!"

Arthur clenched his left hand into a fist and hid it behind his back when he thought of this.

From that moment on, the guardianship contract was no longer just a simple "guardian and ward" relationship.

Rather, it is two orthodox bloodlines who share the same suffering and sympathize with each other and who are banding together for warmth.

"Since there's no specific date on the contract, I'll just raise Xien as my own child."

Every time Arthur saw Sheen sleeping like a kitten, he would think:

"Although I don't have any children and have no experience in raising children, as an elder, I will establish a good 'father-son relationship' with you in order to train you to be a true legitimate heir."

Such warm scenes seem to overlap across eras.

When Arthur was about the same age as Sheen, the old Duke also liked to watch Arthur fall asleep.

(End of the sensational story)

Ivan put his hands on his hips and said helplessly:

"If it weren't for the Duke's doing this, you wouldn't even know that Sheen existed."

Arthur shrugged at Ivan and rolled his eyes:

"Everything has its own merits. Besides, I have already warned Atole..."

"What I did was to disrupt the enemy's morale. You should praise me."

Arthur's deep blue eyes revealed a cunning look as he whispered this.

...

Ivan rested his chin on his right hand and closed his eyes to think.

It didn't take long before he gave Arthur a thumbs-up.

"Hahaha, I understand. This plan was a great success."

Arthur suddenly put his hand on Ivan's shoulder and even patted him twice.

"Now that we're done, let's go get something to eat... let's go to the dessert house on Charles Street. The egg tarts there are delicious - I remember you've tried them, right?"

Ivan smiled:

"I haven't eaten it, but Sean has. I heard from him that the Duke specially invited the chef from the dessert shop to come to the Duke's Mansion to make it for him. Unfortunately, it was only once, and the quantity was small."

Arthur was amused by the "just once" comment:

"Haha, then it's my treat this time. Eat as much as you want!"

"Okay~"

When Ivan heard that there was something delicious to eat, he was happier than anyone else.

......

Duke of Haines Palace.

Atole sat weakly on the bed, and his pale face showed that he had just woken up.

"What? Are you telling the truth?"

Alex sat on a small chair beside the bed. He had come to see Atole just for show after learning that he had fainted.

But I didn't expect Atole to bring such heavy news.

"You said you saw Arthur? Stop talking nonsense, brother!"

Alex's face was full of shock, but he could understand it when he thought about the unrecognizable faces of the bodies found in the fire.

"It's absolutely true. If you don't believe me, ask Xi Lun. He can see it too!"

Atole was holding a cup of cold water, and his hands were shaking.

"I can't believe this guy is okay! I have to kill him before he returns to society!"

Alex listened to these words but made no statement in support of his brother.

because...

Alex's hands were shaking -

Sheen is gone, if Arthur is going to die...

"The fact that Xilun is a fake orthodoxy will be exposed!"

...

While the southern part of the empire was still feeling the coolness of autumn, a freezing cold wind had already blown in the north.

Not to mention the border.

It was snowing heavily and the environment was harsh.

There, a bloody war is taking place.

"Damn it, there's actually such a master in the Impes family. He knows how to deal with the dark magic we are so proud of!"

In the collapsed front-line battlefield camp, the enemy's Grand Duke Gray and the enemy's commander bit his lip and cursed.

"He's also a powerful swordsman!"

Less than thirty meters away from the Grand Duke's camp.

The Grand Duke watched helplessly as the Duke-candidate of Impes slaughtered his proud magician generals like a madman.

No one can stop the powerful white magic that was born with Impes' "first child" from shattering the fog of black magic.
