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

Chapter 38: The Contractual Marriage of the Demon Tower Master and His Wife

Nancy couldn't see Romos's face.

But judging from his tone and the attitude towards people, it seems that Romos is not as scary as the rumors in the empire.

silence.

"call..."

Nancy took a deep breath and told Romos the whole story of how she was Alex's fiancée, and how she was betrayed by Alex and Susan, and finally hunted down.

He looked at Nancy's gray hair—Alex had been in big trouble.

The Demon Tower Master stood straight with his hands loosely clenched into fists resting on his legs and his mouth open.

Such things are "destroying" to him.

"My whole family was killed by Susan. I have no home anymore,"

Nancy covered her pregnant belly and said,

"I want to protect myself and my child and not let my child fall into their hands.

"What should I do?"

Letters home are a difficult thing to read.

Romos thought to himself: Although I am a man, I know how miserable it is to meet a scumbag.

After suffering so many blows, she still wants to keep the scumbag's child... We can only say that she loves her child instead of the scumbag.

......

"Well, there is a way that will not worry about you being hunted down again, but will also protect you and the child..."

"any solution?"

Romos smiled and extended his hand to Nancy:

"That is to marry me and let the child bear my last name."

what?

marry?

Nancy looked up and stared at Romos' hand.

The idea is ridiculous.

But looking at Romos's expression, it seemed that he was not joking.

Nancy quickly compared Alex and Romos in her mind:

"Even if Alex becomes a duke, he can't afford to offend Romos!"

"But my child has no blood relationship with you..." Nancy felt that this plan seemed a bit unfair to Romos.

She touched her bulging belly and whispered:

"My child is Alex's. If he finds out..."

Romos withdrew his hand, put his hands on his knees, and stared at her blankly:

"It's strange to say, but noble men hate it when their spouse cheats on them. But I'm not one of them. I'm old and I don't have the ability anymore."

If it weren't for the fact that she knew that Romos had "outlived four generations of emperors," Nancy would have really mistaken the person in front of her for an unmarried young man about her age after hearing Romos' gentle and youthful voice.

Nancy was silent.

"You're younger than I thought," Nancy murmured.

"Hahaha, you really know how to talk!"

After laughing, Romos returned to the topic.

"I have a child. Of course, she is a successful experiment with magic that I created myself. Since I created her, I must be responsible for her."

Nancy was confused by the amount of information:

"Experimental subject?"

But thinking about the world's evaluation of Romos, it seems that we can understand Romos's approach -

He needs an heir to the Magic Tower, and artificial experimental subjects might have a longer lifespan.

"As I am unmarried, it will inevitably cause unnecessary troubles if I take her out. So I came up with the idea of ​​contract marriage,"

Romos even imagined a family portrait of four people in his mind.

He held out his hand to Nancy again:

"Since your child lacks a father figure and my child lacks a mother figure, isn't it just right for us to complement each other?"

"Let's talk about some superficial interests..."

Romos smiled slyly.

"The wife of the Demon Tower Lord is qualified to be on equal footing with any noble. After you marry me, you don't have to be afraid of them."

......

Romos knocked on the door a few times with their marriage certificate, and pushed the door open after getting permission from the person inside.

He saw Nancy holding Ida, who was ten months old.

Baby Ida had Nancy's white hair and Haynes's starry golden eyes.

Romos looked at the baby for a long time:

“I have to say my daughter is pretty… well, she looks more like you, which is good.

"Ma'am, in order to allay their doubts, I asked someone to change the wedding date to a year ago."

"what?"

Nancy didn't understand Romos's idea at first.

Under the guidance of the wet nurse, Romos gently picked up baby Ada and slowly placed her in the crib beside him. He then explained to Nancy:

"Ma'am, you have to know,

"Alex knows that he can only condemn you morally, but he won't kill you. He won't delve into your family affairs either."

"If you want to blame someone, blame the atmosphere. A bastard child won't ruin his reputation. It will only make people think you are marrying above your station."

Nancy was silent after hearing this. Although Romos's words were uncomfortable, they were also right.

Romos curled his lips and touched Nancy's hair——

Alas, my hair tends to fall out easily after giving birth, and the quality of my hair is obviously much worse.

...

The two had a contract marriage, and after the news of their marriage came out, many people said that Romos was "an old cow eating young grass" and that Mrs. Jones "had been toyed with by others before she married an old man."

But this contract marriage has been going on for so long and has been quite peaceful.

There was no love between the two, but they lived in mutual respect:

Romos can fulfill his duties as a father and husband, and Nancy can fulfill her duties as a wife and mother...

This is enough.

(End of memory)

Sheen thought the story was a bit explosive, but it seemed to be the best approach for Nancy at the time.

He was silent.

Mrs. Jones finished her story and quickly got back to the point:

"But Miss Bonnie brought you to see me, is there something wrong?"

She turned her gaze to Sheen.

Back to the topic...

Sheen immediately straightened up, looked Mrs. Jones straight in the eye, and said solemnly:

"I want to enter the Magic Tower and become a disciple before entering the Magic Academy."

Mrs. Jones did not think this was a joke, especially after she learned that the person who came was a true descendant of Haines's orthodox bloodline.

She held her chin with her hand, looked at Sheen with a smile, and then said to Bonnie and Ada:

"Hmm? You guys go to the next room for tea and dessert. I want to talk to Sheen alone."

She gave the cousins ​​some time to spend together.

After Bonnie and Ada left, Sheen put his hands on his knees and said in his inner monologue:

How does it feel like an interview?

Of course, the person in front of him has a close connection with the Lord.

Judging from her description, she will definitely find a suitable way to make the lord's family suffer.

"Then I will definitely get this position."

Mrs Jones slowly poured a cup of tea and held it in her hand:

"Let me tell you a premise. After Romos trained the previous generation of disciples, considering his age, he only planned to train the last generation of disciples this year."

Mrs. Jones stated in a gentle tone,

"Of course, there's only really one spot available."

For this reason, many noble family heads came to the Demon Tower, wanting Romos to accept their children as his final disciples.

The original story says that Romos usually takes in two apprentices at a time, so it seems he has some plans this time.

Sheen inwardly marveled at the low acceptance rate.

But the resources that the last apprentice obtained were almost all of Romos's hard work.

This opportunity must be seized!
