I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

In the north, the Grand Duke had just gathered up the remnants of his army.

"The ordinary soldiers were seriously injured, and the others were slightly injured."

The Duke of the North breathed a sigh of relief. Ordinary soldiers could be replenished at any time and the price was cheap. As long as the knights were fine, it would be fine.

"Aimee is about to give birth."

The knight next to him responded:

"Yes."

"I'm going to the capital. Please send some knights from the north. I need guards here."

"Yes."

The Grand Duke looked towards the direction of the royal capital. He had already withdrawn the forces from the north. He knew that many people were eyeing Aimee covetously.

But he also didn't want Ai Mei to be alive. He would never do anything like raising a tiger to cause trouble.

Of course, given Aimee's personality, she might let the child stay.

That's better. It's much easier to build a relationship with a child than to win over Aimee.

The Grand Duke thought of the sun rising over the battlefield and the devastating shock wave, and he felt extremely fearful, yet eagerly looking forward to it.

……

In the south, Lord Rose was reading the intelligence from the north.

"Aimee Stark is going to give birth."

Grand Duke Rose sighed in his heart. If Aimee and Bennett's child was controlled by the North, then Rose Territory would be completely finished.

The feud between the Rose family and the Bennetts was, after all, just a personal vendetta.

The Grand Duke of the North has evil ambitions.

"Ah... notify the archmage to come over."

"Yes."

The soldiers outside the carriage left, and Grand Duke Rose also came out of the carriage.

After a while, a black-robed wizard appeared in front of the Grand Duke.

"Master Mage, how would I, Rose, treat you?"

The blue in the wizard's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood what the Grand Duke meant.

"The grace is as heavy as a mountain."

There are only four words for "mage".

Grand Duke Rose looked towards the north, sighed, and said:

"In the North, Aimee Stark is about to give birth. I want you to go there in person."

The mage was stunned for a moment and said:

"Miss, over there..."

"I'm afraid I can't count on it."

The wizard was silent.

Aimee Stark, the legal wife of the Archmage of the Sun, is pregnant with the Archmage's child.

No one would believe that the Great Mage Lieyang did not have any hidden tricks.

After all, neither Natural Disaster nor God's Gift is fertile, and this is his only child.

This is probably a mission that will result in death.

"Even if I succeed, can Rose Territory withstand the revenge?"

The eyes of Grand Duke Rose became increasingly empty. He knew that this time, he was going to offend a natural disaster to death.

But he had no choice. If he let that woman give birth to the child, no one would be able to stop him in the North.

He had no other choice. The meaning of being a nobility lies in everything in the territory.

Grand Duke Rose's gaze gradually became firm. He turned back to look at the Archmage and said firmly:

"Master Mage, this time, it is the Rose Territory that let you down."

The wizard did not say anything. Although the Grand Duke of Rose called him "Sir", he became a calamity because of the grace of the Lord of Rose.

Not to mention, before he became a natural disaster, he swore to devote his life to the Grand Duke.

“Your Excellency the Duke, I have passed down the Calamity Rune. If Your Excellency the Duke finds a suitable candidate, you can let him inherit it.

But this rune is very evil, if you are not in a stable state of mind, it may bring disaster to the people."

Grand Duke Rose nodded and watched the wizard fly to the north.

He returned to the carriage, wrote two letters, and called the soldiers outside the carriage:

"Give this letter to the Madam, and this one to the Patriarch."

"Yes."

Watching the soldiers leave the carriage, tears gradually welled up in Grand Duke Rose's eyes. This was all he could do.

……

north.

Aimee held her stomach and frowned slightly.

"what happened?"

Sierra came forward, draped a blanket over Aimee, and added more wood to the fireplace.

Aimee shook her head, looked out the window and said:

"nothing."

Helen was also there, but she didn't dare to speak at all because there were more and more people from the Rose Sect in the castle.

And today, the Grand Duke sent a letter over and sent away a large number of God-given knights.

The young, strong-willed knights are gone.

Now the only ones left in the castle were those old knights whose faith had collapsed and who looked quite old.

The three people in the room knew what was going to happen.

Aimee also let Helen stay in the room, which showed her great trust in Helen.

Now Sera hardly dares to leave Aimee for a moment, for fear that if she misses a second look, Aimee will die.

The door creaked open and an old man entered the house, holding a mountain deer in his hand and carrying firewood on his back.

After unloading the firewood and handing the mountain deer to Sera, the old man looked at Aimee and sighed:

"News came from the front that Archmage Lieyang killed the orc chieftain and wiped out half of the orc army in one fell swoop.

The king is now on his way back to the capital. Once he returns, he will reward Bennett."

Aimee nodded, squinted her eyes and rocked the rocking chair gently. She was in a good mood.

The old man looked at Sera, who also sighed and shook his head slightly.

The old man looked at Aimee again and said:

"Call the Archmage back, they are about to take action."

Aimee smiled disdainfully and said:

"No, they won't do it now. Grand Duke Rose knows me, he will definitely not do it at this time."

Aimee's eyes still didn't open. She just rocked in her chair and hummed a heroic epic from the north.

The old man seemed to see the shadow of the old duke in Aimee.

That was the old duke when his eldest son had not yet joined the army and the current duke had not yet ascended the throne.

The old man suddenly felt a little sad. This was the best bloodline of the giant wolf.

"When will they start? I'll ask the old brothers to prepare."

There are more than a dozen old knights in the castle. These old knights are all God-given, and the reasons for the collapse of their faith are different.

But there is one thing they are the same, that is, orders and such are bullshit to them.

Ai Mei seemed to be annoyed by the old man and responded impatiently:

"The day my domain became a dukedom and Bennett stepped forward to confer the honor on my behalf."

The investiture ceremony must be completed, and Aimee will never allow the scene of her family's promotion to become a laughing stock for other families in the future.

The old man knew very well how much these nobles valued honor. No matter what they did in private, they had to be decent enough in public.

The old man sighed, didn't say anything more, just waved his hand, turned around and was about to leave the room.

Aimee suddenly opened her eyes and said:

"This is my father's only blood. Please help me find a newborn baby and hide it in the room for the next few days. On the day of the awarding of the medal, you and Sera will escort my child away."

The old man was a little confused:

"How do you know that you will give birth on that day?"

Aimee looked at the old man. Her green pupils were full of indifference and wildness. They didn't look like human eyes, but more like wolf's eyes.

"Otherwise, why would the Grand Duke keep you here?"

These old knights, who are fed up with the nobles' transactions and whose beliefs have collapsed, have only the ability to help the Grand Duke complete the final step with their broken knight's hearts.

Of course, the same goes for Aimee.
