After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

However, when Ivan explained the existence of Eve, he simply said that he had saved a girl with powerful magic and who was grateful to him many years ago, and after training her for several years, he let her play the role of Eve's sister.

There is no need for the Crown Prince to know the clone’s trump card!

"Ha, I knew it was you!" Everett didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"You should know that when we learned that Xien had died, father wanted to give you a state funeral. But I saw that the situation was not right, so I stopped it."

Ivan shrugged. "It turns out that Your Highness made the right choice. If the Emperor had given Sheen a state funeral, Haines would have taken the opportunity to transfer his property."

Everett took a sip of tea and put the cup on the table.

"Oh, so you made Sheen a dead man... that makes sense~"

Everett sat at his desk, his chin resting on his right hand, his eyes fixed on Ivan's black dragon claw.

"It's hard to imagine how Sheen managed to survive."

Everett felt a little sympathetic towards Sheen's situation.

Besides, Sheen was the one who showed his support for him to become emperor, so of course Everett would help him:

"Given your special situation, I will turn a blind eye to this property transfer. You know, if we don't open a backdoor, the nobles will have almost no chance of transferring their assets to the commoners."

"Thank you~"

Ivan happily received the real estate transfer documents.

At the same time, the sound of Haines' carriage came into my ears...

(End of memory)

Ivan placed his hands on the armrest and raised his head slightly to look at the Norata Castle in the distance:

"It's still the same as it was seven years ago. Of course, I'm talking about the Duke's Mansion before I came here..."

Ivan (Sheen) certainly remembered the fact revealed by Mr. Hughes seven years ago - before Sheen came, the entire Duke's Mansion was cold and deserted, filled with a weird atmosphere.

After Xi Lun officially came to power, this weird atmosphere became even more obvious.

Ivan looked at the prosperous scene around him: the green plants blooming under the influence of immortality magic, and the marble statues that were kept clean.

Even Rufus House (Silen's residence) was elaborately renovated, making it even grander than Norata Castle.

But these scenes are filled with a sense of "darkness".

Ivan finally found the right words to describe it:

"The atmosphere seems to be colder than before, and it feels like many people have died in this land."

Many people died?

Everett was upset when he heard this thought:

"I have tried very hard to track down the whereabouts of the missing owner, and all clues point to this place."

Everett waved his hands helplessly and sighed.

"Unfortunately, Haines and the royal family have privileges similar to those of the Magic Tower. We have not found direct evidence to prove that these lives were killed by Xi Lun. Even if my father personally goes out, he cannot conduct a large-scale search in the Duke's Mansion."

Everett tried very hard to make the words "killed by Xi Lun" sound small and light - this just shows that Xi Lun was just being clever.

Ivan pretended to be surprised and asked:

"How do you know these people were killed by Xi Lun?"

Everett replied casually: "Although Li Luxiu hates me, he is afraid of death."

Oh, Liu Luxiu told on.

Silence.

"Xi Lun is a very good idealist..."

“A lot of people in Haines are.”

Ivan glanced at Everett.

This guy is pretty good at making innuendos.

The autumn wind blows, and it carries a bit of chilliness that makes people shiver when it blows on their bodies.

Everett put his hands in his pockets and paced back and forth:

"Unfortunately, Haines is in too high a position - so, when do you and Mr. Arthur plan to take action?"

"It will take a few years. Don't worry."

Ivan raised his right hand, smoothed his long silver hair that was blowing in the wind, closed his eyes and hummed.

"But I have to say that this celebration banquet was a good one..."

Then, a strange smile appeared on Ivan's face, but Everett didn't notice it:

"This party is just the calm before the storm."

the next day.

Ivan did not forget what he was mainly here for - "to invite you to provide technical guidance to the Blaney Knights."

The reader got a good idea of ​​Haines's military strength when he was still Sheen:

Haines has two private knight orders, one is the Parker Order affiliated to the Duke's House, and the other is the Blainey Order affiliated to the Lord's House.

The swordsmanship teacher of the Parker Knights is the former Grand Master of the Royal Knights, so the combat level of the Parker Knights "is still up to the standards of the Knights of the Duke's Palace."

"But compared to the Kalebo Knights of the Impes Family, they are far inferior."

This is the evaluation of outsiders.

And the Knights of Blaine...

Those gathered were all magicians who had modified themselves into "copycat sword masters" - since they needed to protect "the most honorable Master Xilun", naturally the knights around Xilun were required to have magic powers.

drop~

A system pop-up window appears:

"Mission: Train the Blaney Knights (Just a little bit of help is enough)

Reward: Viscount Roman's character setting

"Ugh..."

Thinking about these two polarized settings, Ivan couldn't help but blurt out,

"No matter what, their talent is not as good as that of a magic swordsman... How can I train them?"

(My head is so big)

Forget it, in order to successfully get rid of the Viscount, I should just accept the mission...

After changing into light training clothes, Ivan went to the training ground set up in the backyard of the Lord's Mansion.

The knights' voices came into his ears:

"Today I was scolded by the idle grey-haired young master (Xi Lun) again..."

"Don't mind him, that's just his way!"

"It seems that Xiren is making trouble even under house arrest."

Ivan walked among the knights sitting on the ground. When the knights saw him coming, they were too lazy to move.

"That's the civilian magician the Duke brought in, right?"

"I think so. To be honest, this guy is good-looking..."

"I really don't know what a commoner is teaching us. I think he must be grateful to his ancestors for coming here!"

"Hehe, I wonder what he can do to us!"

Ivan walked among them, and he found the knights' decadent appearance outrageous.

In addition, most of these knights were impoverished nobles who owed debts to Haines - they all served to repay their debts.

Ivan actually knew them all:

Although the family fell into decline, the nobles' arrogance and contempt for others remained unchanged.

"I guess they all think that guarding a young master whose identity is so controversial is simply lowering one's status, right?"

Ivan looked at the stinky faces of these knights and thought:

Since they are skeptical about Xilun's legitimacy, it would be beneficial for me to train them now...when I return to the Duke's Mansion as Xien in the future!

Ivan stopped and stood in the middle of the crowd:

"Where is the captain?"

"Hello, Master Ester," a middle-aged knight came out.

"I'm the new leader, Tim. Nice to meet you."

Ivan's eyes widened, full of question marks:

"(scratching his head) No way? A new leader? I heard that the previous leader's term was less than half a year..."

A small voice came from the crowd and answered:

"Captain Lauren died suddenly a week ago."
