After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

At this moment, at the same time when Celia comforted the old mage, there was a sudden and crisp sound of metal collisions in the secret treasure room on the upper floor of the castle.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Viscount Abt, the owner of the castle, who was holding a large cloth bag, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and filling the cloth bag with gold and silver treasures.

At this moment, the viscount, who has always been very particular about appearance, has completely abandoned the elegance of nobility, not only casually throwing aside the ceremonial sword that symbolizes power, even the armor that should be worn on his body is lying on the ground in a desolate manner. In the corner, at this moment, he looked like a thief who broke into the treasure house, stealing the treasures in the treasure house in an incomparably despicable way.

"Boom~boom~boom~"

I don't know how long it took, but when Viscount Abt had already filled the cloth bag in his hand and was about to leave, there was a regular knock on the door of the treasure room.

The moment he heard the knock on the door, Viscount Abbot turned around like a small beast being attacked, his eyes were full of horror, and then he instinctively stepped back a few steps, full of fear. Frightened eyes looked around randomly, as if he wanted to retrieve the ceremonial sword that he had abandoned, so as to increase his sense of security, and he seemed to want to find a route to escape.

However, before Viscount Abt could do anything, he did not know what to step on while retreating backwards. His feet suddenly slipped, and then his center of gravity became unstable. His whole body was dragged by the heavy cloth bag, and he fell backward down.

The next moment, there was a crisp sound of "cracking" in the room, and when he looked over again, Viscount Abbott had already fallen to the ground. At the same time, the heavy cloth bag in his hand was at the mouth Open wide, a large number of round gold coins popped out of the cloth bag like water splashes, and then happily rolled all over the floor. Against the backdrop of candlelight, the room became golden, but, on the surface of the gold coins that reflected light On the other hand, Viscount Abt's face looked so pale.

At this moment, it seemed as if there was a terrifying monster standing outside the door. Facing the gold coins scattered all over the floor, the terrified Viscount Abt didn't even take a look. All his attention was caught by the door of the room. So attracted, I even forgot to stand up.

Finally, just when Viscount Abt's spirit was on the verge of collapse, the door was opened, and then, a figure he was very familiar with walked in...

"...Father, what are you doing~?"

That's right, the uninvited guest who broke into the room was not the Crispin rebels or anyone else, but the eldest son of Viscount Abbott—Caslo Abbott.

At this moment, looking at his son standing in front of him, Viscount Abt, who was originally extremely panicked, suddenly relaxed, and his expression was in a daze for a long time before he finally recovered. After that, His Excellency the Viscount seemed to realize that In this situation, he turned to his son and growled almost angrily,

"Caslo, who let you in?"

"Where are the guards at the door, what are they doing, have those damn bastards left their posts without authorization?!"

"Go and bring them here, I will hang them all!"

On the other side, facing Viscount Abt who was still sitting on the ground venting his anger, Castro did not reply, he just lowered his head and looked around, then stepped forward to help his father up, and waited until Abt After the Viscount stood still, he asked slowly,

"Father, are you planning to run away~?"

"Shut up!" Viscount Abt, whose face was punctured by his son's straightforward questioning, said angrily with his face flushed.

"Caslo, how dare you talk to me like that, I am your father—!"

Hearing Viscount Abt's increasingly angry roar, Castro still had no expression on his face. He just lowered his head and asked again in a deeper tone,

"Father, if you just leave like this, what will the Abt family do?"

"You can run away, but the Abt family cannot. If you can't find the culprit, Your Excellency will definitely liquidate the Abt family......"

"enough--!"

The next moment, before Castro could finish speaking, there was a hysterical roar in the room. Immediately afterwards, Viscount Abbot stared at his son with bloodshot eyes,

"Remember clearly, I am the head of the Abt family, and the Abt family must obey my will!"

"Only if I live, the Abbot family will prosper!"

"If I die, the Abt family will also perish!"

"That woman hasn't won yet. She provoked the Empire, the Church, and Boulrose at the same time, and even angered His Majesty!"

"She's against the whole world! She can't win, she can't win—!"

"I'm going to the capital, and I want to see her demise with my own eyes. At that time, I will make the Abt family great again..."

At this moment, it seems that Castro's persecution stimulated a slender nerve in Viscount Abbott, making him look like a madman, sometimes cursing, sometimes insulting, and sometimes swearing by gnashing his teeth, saying that he must Can reproduce the glory of the Abt family.

Facing such a crazy Viscount Abt, Castro suddenly sighed softly, then slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it seemed as if he had made up his mind. The hesitation and hesitation that had been lingering in his heart all this time disappeared without a trace.

"Forgive me~, Father......"

Suddenly, a deep sigh resounded faintly in the room, and before Viscount Abbot could realize why his son spoke like that, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then, his whole body The person was pushed back by a huge force, and he was pushed against the wall of the treasure room before stopping.

"you you.........."

After a few breaths, Viscount Abbot finally recovered from the shock and pain with the icy touch against the wall behind him.

The next moment, he resisted the severe pain in his chest, grabbed the collar of the sword-bearer in front of him, and stared at the opponent's face, his eyes were full of resentment, anger and disbelief.

Viscount Abt never thought that one day he would be armed with weapons by his proud son. This cruel reality made him unable to understand, let alone accept.So the father widened his eyes furiously, and stared at his son with a ferocious expression. He struggled hard, gnashing his teeth, wanting to utter the last curse.

However, when countless vicious words reached his lips, Viscount Abt couldn't say anything, because at this moment, he suddenly found that on his son's face, he did not see the arrogance of being a victor, There is no sly smile after the trick is successful, there is only fear, sadness and pain, and there is even a wisp of moisture flowing from the corner of the eye.

Facing the weird scene in front of him, Viscount Abt opened his mouth, and finally chose to remain silent. Following his silence, the room suddenly became extremely quiet. Suddenly, the father and son who were facing each other with swords were like Looking at each other quietly, no one spoke.

"You told me, father......"

After a while, Castro broke the silence first, as if he wanted to give an explanation for his patricide, Castro stared at his father, and said in a hoarse and deep voice.

"Family glory is above all else. As the heirs of the Abt family, we must maintain the glory of the Abt family at all costs!"

"Father, it's clear that you told me these truths...why did you betray it yourself~!"

Facing Castro's questioning, Viscount Abt did not reply, he just silently stared at his son's face similar to his own, his expression suddenly seemed a little dazed.

At this moment, the long river of time seemed to be reversed in front of Viscount Abt, and scenes from the past flashed before his eyes like a revolving lantern. He remembered everything his son had experienced from birth to adulthood, Those feelings and memories that once made him unforgettable are constantly emerging in his mind.

In the end, the image of memory was fixed on Castro's face at this time. Looking at the mature face in front of him, in a trance, Viscount Abt suddenly discovered that his son, whom he had always considered ineffective, In fact, it has already quietly grown up......

"Ahem... Castro, do you think you are smart? Do you think you are better than me?"

"Hehe, how naive...cough cough cough..."

Finally, after coughing up a mouthful of blood, Viscount Abt, affected by the complex emotions in his heart, suddenly suppressed his anger and hatred. Then, he held his head high, deliberately put on a sarcastic attitude, and spoke arrogantly to Looking at his son, he asked,

"Why do you think that as long as you betray me, as long as you bow your head to that woman, that woman will let the Abt family go~?"

"Why do you think that woman can fight against the Empire and the Burros Kingdom at the same time, as well as the joint siege of His Majesty?"

"Do you really think that woman can fight the whole world alone?"

"I remember that I once taught you that as the heir of the Abt family, you must see clearly which path to take to bring the family a brighter future, and you must not make a decision based on impulse."

"Ahem....... Castro, my son, you shouldn't be so stupid, right?"

"Father~, don't you understand......" Facing Viscount Abt's sarcasm, Castro, who felt ashamed, hesitated for a moment, but in the end he remained calm. firmly replied,

"The person who can't see the way clearly has always been yourself!"

"Since the rise of the Grand Duchess, have you ever been to Chris Harbor?"

"Do you know how much the world has changed when you insisted on fighting against the Grand Duke and Daughter?"

"Did you know that while you were laughing at the stupidity of laying expensive steel on the ground, Chris has developed a method that can carry a large amount of goods from one city to another in a short period of time?" A large rail car!"

"Did you know? Just as you were pointing at the use of female workers by the Grand Duchess, the factories in Port Chris are being erected one after another, and they can bring Chris extremely rich returns every day!"

"Did you know? Just when you accused Your Excellency of ignoring the rules of the nobility and imparting knowledge to the common people privately, Chris has established an extremely efficient team of civil servants, and can recruit a huge number of skilled workers at any time!"

"Did you know? Just when you implemented the militia policy against Your Excellency, and cursed maliciously again and again, Chris has become a war fortress where all the people are soldiers!"

"You don't know!"

"You don't know anything—!"

At this point, it seemed that he realized that his emotions were too agitated, and Castro couldn't help but paused. After taking a deep breath, he looked at Viscount Abbott again, and continued to speak in a low tone. road,

"Father, it's never me who makes decisions out of impulsiveness, but you, it's always been you!"

"Greed and desire have already devoured your sanity, causing you to ignore the sincerity of the Grand Duchess and Her Majesty again and again, and abruptly pushed the Abt family to the hostile position of Chris."

"But even so, Your Excellency is still willing to give the Abt family a way out."

"I can't just watch you push the Abt family into the abyss, I must stop you, even...even if I want to be your enemy!"

"So..." At this moment, after listening to his son's speech, Viscount Abt seemed to understand something, he suddenly lowered his head and let out a sad smile,

"My son, from the very beginning, you were the nail that woman arranged for me?"

"Hahahaha, it's true, ahem...it's really amazing, that woman is really amazing..."

The next moment, just as the voice fell, the Viscount Abt, who seemed to have no resistance, suddenly looked hard, and then, taking advantage of Castro's lack of reaction, he summoned his last strength to connect him Push away with a sword.

On the other side, when Castro stood up and was about to do something, he saw Viscount Abbott clutching his bleeding chest, stumbling all the way to the window of the room.

Seeing this scene, Castro was subconsciously stunned, because there was a dead end beyond the window, and the treasure room was located on the sixth floor of the castle, at least 20 meters above the ground, jumping from the window would undoubtedly kill him.

Then, before Castro could figure out his father's intentions, he saw Viscount Abt standing in front of the window, and suddenly threw something towards him forcefully.

After Castro subconsciously caught the thing and took a closer look, he found that the thing lying in his hand at this time was a delicate and classic seal.

And the moment he saw the seal clearly, Castro's eyes widened suddenly, because this seal is a family token passed down from generation to generation by the Abt family, and it can only be controlled by the head of the family. The meaning of things thrown to themselves could not be more obvious.

Regarding this, Castro instinctively wanted to say something, but when he raised his head, he found that his father had already dragged his seriously injured body and climbed up the window with difficulty. At this moment, the surging emotions in his heart, He subconsciously shouted,

"Father--!"

Hearing Castro's shout, Viscount Abt paused, and after a while, the desperate Patriarch Abt finally looked back at his son.

At this moment, the father and son looked at each other quietly from the air, and neither of them spoke, as if all the grievances and friendship between the two were paid to this last glance.

After a few breaths, Viscount Abt ignored his son, turned around with a blank expression, and stood on the window sill.

Immediately afterwards, after silently glancing at the panic-stricken crowd below, as well as the Crispin rebels standing outside the castle like a forest, the Patriarch of the Abt family was deeply moved. took a deep breath, and in the next moment, a roaring sound suddenly echoed over the castle,

"Caterina Aldan, you won, but I will wait in hell to see what happens to you—!"

After the words fell, while everyone was stunned, Viscount Abbott leaped vigorously, like a shooting star across the sky, and then, with a muffled sound, a bright red flower of death appeared on the ground. Blooming gorgeous........

Chapter 117 Publishing a Single Chapter

Send a single chapter to talk about the update status of this book.

I believe that the readers who have been following the updates all know that the update status of this book is quite unsatisfactory. It is often updated every two days. The author explains here that the author was also a diligent person who insisted on daily updates, but since last year, the author Life suddenly fell into a trough. Not only did his girlfriend leave the author, but he also encountered various ups and downs on the road to writing a book. The worst thing is that the author's place of residence turned into an outbreak of the new crown virus, and all kinds of negative factors gathered , so that the state has been bad. When it was the most serious, the author not only deteriorated in physical condition, but also had mental problems, and he cheated several books in a row.

However, recently, I don’t know if it’s extremely peaceful or not. The author’s situation in all aspects has begun to show signs of recovery. A careful reader should be able to find that the author’s updated chapters are all 4000 words long, but the update status is not ideal. The author I have been trying to further adjust the status, but the effect does not seem to be very good. After thinking for a long time, the author finally thought of a solution, which is to seek help from the masters.

Starting today, the author vows to return to his previous state and become a diligent person who takes full attendance every month (12 words per month, with a maximum of three days off). I hope that the readers can give the author encouragement and encouragement.If one day the author does not update for no reason, you can encourage the author to be an old pigeon with stew in the comment area. Of course, if the author can complete the monthly full attendance, please don't be stingy with the ones in your hands. Piao Piao, I believe that as long as the judges are willing to help, the author will definitely be able to return to the hardworking person who used to get full attendance every month.

In addition, to share a piece of knowledge, when the author was reading the history of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period today, he suddenly saw such a story:

Duke Huan said: "Lu Liang is in Qi. There are thousands of grains, bee stings, and teeth with lips. Now I want to go to Lu Liang. How can I do it?"

Guan Zi said to him: "The folklore of Lu Liang is ti. The public obeys ti, and the left and right obey it, and the people see it. Because the public ordered Qi not to dare to do it, he must look up to Lu Liang. It was Lu Liang who explained his farming and made ti. carry on."
