"Are you kidding, do you know how long we've been waiting here—?!"
"2 hours! 2 full hours!"
"Is that woman playing tricks on us—?!"
"Master, please remain calm......" Facing the fury of the Duke's son, Karbas's expression did not change at all, unlike other servants, he just reminded calmly,
"This matter has nothing to do with the eldest lady, it is the meaning of the duke!"
"I don't care!" Hearing the steward's response, the Duke's son became even angrier.
"Damn it, it must be that woman's trick, she wants to play us!"
After a roar of resentment, the Duke's son stared at the butler in front of him, and then asked fiercely,
"Where is she?"
"Master, you shouldn't..." At this moment, Karbas couldn't help exhaling in the face of the Duke's son who was in extreme rage, and then tried to persuade him, but the Duke's son didn't give a damn. Taking this opportunity, he asked further,
"Don't avoid my questions!"
"Where is that woman now? I'm going to see her now!"
"Go and tell her that if she dares to play tricks on me tonight, I swear I will take revenge on her at all costs!"
Finally, facing the decisive reaction of the Duke's son, Karbas, who could no longer avoid him after asking the Duchess for help in vain, finally let go.
"Okay, young master, I can arrange for you to meet the eldest lady, but I hope you can exercise restraint. The eldest lady's current situation is not very good, and it will be very troublesome if you are disturbed."
After all, Karbas explained a few words to a servant behind him. Not long after he left the hall quickly, a group of servants walked in from outside the hall. When they entered the hall, these servants were not empty-handed. Instead, he was carrying a wooden box about the height of a person. The appearance of the wooden box was quite delicate, making one wonder what was inside the box.
"what is this?"
Facing the weird scene in front of him, the Duke's son subconsciously widened his eyes, and asked the doubts in the hearts of everyone present,
"Didn't I ask you to bring that woman to pick us up? What are you doing with a box?"
"Cough cough." Hearing the Duke's son's inquiry, Karbas coughed twice before responding calmly,
"Master, Missy is in the box."
As he spoke, Karbas clapped his palms, and the servant at the side quickly opened the erected box after receiving the cue, and at the moment the box door was opened, an extremely beautiful and charming girl broke into everyone in sight.
The girl has brown hair, and her skin is fair and transparent. Under the candlelight, it seems to be covered with a layer of hazy luster. Although the girl's eyes are closed at the moment, and the pair of pupils in the eye sockets cannot be seen, it has not harmed the girl at all. Against the background of the gorgeous clothes, the girl in a coma still looks like the light of the sun and the moon, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
It seemed that he did not expect the person in the box to be such a beautiful girl. Everyone present was stunned. Even the Duke's son subconsciously widened his eyes. He even felt his heart beating at a high frequency.
But soon, after remembering the girl's identity, the Duke's son quickly restrained the surprise in his eyes, and then tried his best to promote the anger that was almost extinguished in his heart, trying to maintain a fierce posture, for fear that he would lose his composure in front of everyone.
"Karbas, what's going on~?"
This time, it was the Duchess who spoke first. After walking up to the girl and looking at her for a long time, the Duchess looked at Karbas with a puzzled expression, trying to get the answer from him.
As for the Duchess' inquiry, Karbas did not give a detailed explanation, but said with a slight hint,
"Reporting to Madam, due to some misunderstandings between the eldest lady and the master, the eldest lady is not willing to obey the master's arrangement. In order to protect the safety of the eldest lady, the master has no choice but to 'invite' the eldest lady back."
After listening to Karbas's words, the Duchess seemed to understand something. When she looked at the girl again, the coldness that had been surrounding her weakened a little, and just when the Duchess wanted to ask something more, she didn't wait. Open your mouth, and in the next moment, a sudden change occurs!
Chapter 25-24
"Bitch!"
At this moment, looking at the girl who was already close in front of him, there was a fierce light in Wolong's eyes. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
As the only male heir of the Duke of Aldan's family, Volon, who is regarded as the future owner of the Duke's mansion, has received the most traditional aristocratic education since he was very young.
What is traditional aristocratic education?
The so-called traditional aristocratic education is to educate the successors of the aristocracy to strictly abide by the noble and humble, abide by the etiquette of the aristocracy, and resolutely attack anyone who dares to touch the barriers of class.
Obviously, for Wolong, who received a traditional aristocratic education, it is absolutely impossible for him to have any affection for a girl who has the identity of an illegitimate daughter.
However, it's only to the extent that she doesn't like it. If the girl is really just an ordinary illegitimate daughter, then Wallon's reaction will be like most traditional nobles, who will remain indifferent after being surprised.
After all, as a girl, even though she has a half blood relationship with him, in a patriarchal society, the existence of a girl will not pose a direct threat to his interests, and excessive hostility to the girl will only show his heart narrow.
Therefore, when he first heard about the existence of the girl, Wallon's reaction was actually not intense. In his mind, the impact of this incident was nothing more than the addition of an illegitimate daughter beside his father. If you can't be picked up, it's not a big deal even if you can be picked up in the end.
However, this contemptuous attitude came to an abrupt end when Volon heard that the girl had awakened [Azure Bloodline].
As the heir of the Aldan family, Volon has always been proud of the family's glory, so it is impossible for him not to know what the appearance of [Azure Bloodline] means.
The appearance of a person with [Azure Bloodline] not only means that there is an extra talented person in the family, but in the aristocratic circle, this matter itself has extremely strong political significance.
Different from the girl's original world, in this world with extraordinary power, the power of blood is an objective existence, and this power is the origin of the birth of human nobles.
Pull the timeline of the world back to the ancient times full of darkness and chaos. At that time, there were terrible supernatural creatures all over the world. At that time, human beings were still in the middle and lower reaches of the food chain, and most of them were pitiful without any power. Insects, only a very small number of people are lucky enough to obtain power comparable to extraordinary species due to various reasons.
In the face of a crisis-ridden environment, if the powerless among human beings want to survive, they can only rely on those "chosen ones" who have great power in the sky. This is the origin of the earliest human nobles.
Back in time, as the tide of magic recedes, the extraordinary creatures that were once active have gradually turned into bizarre legends. At this time, human beings are already the masters of the world and have established a brilliant and brilliant civilization.
But at the same time, just like those disappeared extraordinary creatures, the extraordinary bloodlines in human beings gradually disappeared as the tide of magic power receded. Today, there are few rumors of the awakening of noble bloodlines. So many people have even regarded the power of blood as an unreliable legend.
In such a big environment, the news of the girl's awakening of the [Azure Bloodline] will inevitably become a blockbuster, causing a huge impact in the circle of nobles.
Among other things, the existence of the girl alone has proved the legitimacy of the nobles ruling the world!
This is not a joke or arrogance. The reason why the earliest human aristocrats were able to be promoted to nobles in the ethnic group, apart from possessing great power, was mainly because they used to be the guardians of human beings in the chaotic and dark age. Guaranteed the continuation of human civilization.
During this process, the ancestors of the nobles actually shed blood, and it is this glorious past of fighting for the interests of mankind that provides solid and powerful legitimacy for the nobles to rule the world.
But in today's era, as the extraordinary bloodlines passed down among the nobles are dying out one by one, coupled with the gradual weakening of the overall sense of crisis in human civilization, the legitimacy of the nobles' ruling the world has begun to be challenged and questioned.
The subjects who challenge the legitimacy of aristocratic rule are none other than the new generation of aristocrats who have not received historical inheritance, and many new interest groups born in "modern" society. Driven by their own interests, they do not understand nor Willing to understand the pride of traditional nobles for their own blood, they will instinctively resist the rule of traditional nobles.Among the characteristics of upper-class politics in various countries today, the most common point is the struggle between the new aristocratic collective and the traditional aristocratic collective.
Regardless of whether the traditional aristocrats are willing to admit it or not, the objective reality is already doomed. The replacement of the traditional aristocrats by the new aristocrats in controlling the world is a change in line with the laws of the times, and human subjective will cannot resist it.
The time when the girl awakened her bloodline happened to be stuck at the stage when the traditional nobles were gradually unable to withstand the challenges of the new nobles. As the most special individual who appeared at a special time and a special position, the existence of the girl itself represented a huge political fortune. Wealth, a girl with such political value, will naturally be treated differently. Even if the girl's identity is a bit embarrassing, it is not a problem in front of the "orthodox" blood.
As for the girl, there was no problem, and it was the other people's turn to have problems. As the Duke's son, Wallon became the most direct loser in the girl's awakening incident.
Ever since the news of the awakening of the girl's bloodline spread among the nobles under the deliberate push of Duke Aldan, Volon has been receiving all kinds of gazes from the outside world. People's gazes may be weightless, but what is represented behind the gazes is If there is weight, when countless eyes gather together, it will form a huge pressure.
Faced with this sudden tremendous pressure, Wolong, who had never experienced a similar situation in his life before, didn't know how to deal with it. In the end, under the oppression of external forces, he suffered serious mental damage.
After being hurt, people will naturally want to take revenge, but most of the direct hurters are people that Wallon can't afford at the moment, so this 11-year-old boy took all the responsibility as a matter of course. The source of all changes, coupled with the deep-seated jealousy of the girl as an awakened person, Wallon's attitude towards the girl quickly changed from contempt to hatred or even hatred.
And it was driven by this extreme negative emotion that Wallon had the idea of revenge on the girl. After a period of deliberation, he strengthened his determination to do it.
Wolong's original plan was to give the girl a harsh "lesson" when she came to the door, to warn the girl that she was not welcome in this house, and let the girl know who was the master of the duke's mansion by the way.
Don't think this kind of revenge method is very naive. As an 11-year-old boy, there are not many plans that Wallon can think of. After all, the girl is the daughter who has awakened [Azure Bloodline] and is recognized by the Duke. The means of life must not be used on young girls, and Warron still has some sense of propriety.
However, when Wallon prepared all kinds of revenge methods and prepared to severely punish his embarrassing illegitimate daughter, he was disappointed and angrily found that his plan seemed to have a tendency to fail from the very beginning, because the girl did not She didn't enter the Duke's mansion in the normal way. She was brought in after being knocked out. In this way, the method Wallon prepared would be useless.
And just when Wolong thought his plan was about to fail, he was suddenly pleasantly surprised to see that his mother had inadvertently restrained the butler's attention, and there were no guards from his position to the place where the girl was!
Facing the opportunity before him, Wolong made up his mind without hesitation... Since the girl is in a coma and cannot be taught a lesson, let her wake up first!
With this in mind, Wallon took advantage of an opportunity that no one noticed, and suddenly rushed to where the girl was. Because the distance between the two sides was already very close, he stood at the girl's place in just a few breaths. in front of.
Looking at the girl with closed eyes in the box, Wolong's eyes shone fiercely. Then, without any hesitation, he raised his arms high and began to quickly accumulate strength. The palm of the glove will fall fiercely on the girl's face!
"Master, stop!"
Finally, Wallon's "crazy" behavior was discovered by other people in the hall. The first to notice the sudden situation was the butler Karbas. Seeing Wallon's actions, he was shocked out of his wits.
Because of the battle of wits and courage with the girl for several months, Karbas really understands the temper of his eldest lady. If Wolong's slap really falls on the girl's face, after the girl wakes up, no one will be able to say goodbye tonight. I want to sleep, and for a long time to come, there will be chaos in the Duke's mansion.
As the butler of the Duke's Mansion, Karbas did not want to see such a result anyway, so he tried to stop his young master's crazy behavior. Unfortunately, everything happened too suddenly, and his position was too "distant". This makes the efforts he can make really limited.
The second person who noticed and had the ability to stop it was the Duchess. After seeing her son's actions, this beautiful and graceful woman was taken aback for a moment, and then she wanted to stop immediately.
However, when the Duchess' eyes fell on the girl's delicate face inadvertently, a look of struggle suddenly appeared on her expression, and it was this slight hesitation that made the Duchess lose the chance to stop it.
As for the other people in the hall, they all reacted one by one at this time, but they also couldn't do anything, they could only watch everything happen.
However, just when everyone thought the matter was irreversible, a figure suddenly stood in front of the girl. The next moment, with a loud applause, the person standing in front of the girl fell heavily to the ground.
"Diana~~?!"
At this moment, looking at Diana who was lying on the ground covering her face with tears in her eyes, Wallon's eyes widened in disbelief, as if he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him.
And after noticing the redness and swelling on his sister's face, a trace of remorse flashed in Wolong's eyes. He knew that he had used all his strength in that slap just now, and his sister was delicate and weak, so the injury probably wasn't serious. .Just when Wolong instinctively wanted to check his sister's injuries, his peripheral vision suddenly fell on the girl behind her. At this time, there were several servants standing in front of the girl, and the butler appeared next to her. , obviously, he has no chance to do anything to the girl anymore.
At this moment, seeing everyone looking at him with vigilant eyes, Wolong became angry from embarrassment, and then, unable to vent his anger on the girl, he subconsciously chose to vent his anger on his sister.
Under the influence of the unknown fire in his heart, instead of apologizing for his behavior just now, Wallon yelled loudly at the girl who fell on the ground,
"Diana, you're an idiot—!"
"Have you forgotten which side you should be on?!"
"Is that why you want this dirty illegitimate daughter to be your sister?"
"Okay, then you can do whatever you want! But remember it for me, don't call me brother again in the future, your voice makes me sick!"
After all, Wallon turned and left without looking back.
On the other side, the Duchess, who finally came to her senses, originally wanted to scold her son, but after seeing her daughter's tragic situation, her entire attention was drawn by her daughter. She was afraid that her daughter would be disfigured, so she hugged her The humble daughter kept calling for the doctor, and she really didn't have the heart to pay attention to her son's rebellious behavior.
The only person who can make the decision on the court, the only one who remains calm is the butler Karbas. After seeing the scene of flying dogs and dogs in front of him, he responded to the call of the duchess and quietly gave orders to the people around him. Let them take advantage of this opportunity to quickly take the girl away.
Finally, with the efforts of the housekeeper, after nearly half an hour of frantic fuss, the Duke's mansion finally calmed down again, and at the same time, a luxurious carriage with the Duke's exclusive logo quietly drove into the Duke's house. The gate of the government...................
ps: make up yesterday's chapter, update as usual today
Chapter 26 25. The Duke's Routine
About half an hour later, as the farce in the Duke's mansion came to an end, the mansion, which had been noisy for too long, finally fell silent in the night.
At this time, in the main study room of the Duke's Mansion, Duke Aldan, the owner of Morodo City, was quietly sipping the steaming black tea in his cup to dispel the cold air around him, while quietly listening to the words of his housekeeper. Report, everything that happened just now, in the sound of the butler's report, gradually became clear in the Duke's mind.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, following the voice of the butler Karbas, the report was finally over. After the report was over, the butler subconsciously looked at his master, wanting to know how Duke Aldan felt about this matter. What was his attitude towards this matter, but he soon discovered that Duke Aldan's expression was unusually calm, as if he didn't care about what just happened, which made the housekeeper a little puzzled.
