Warlord: King of All Clans

Carefully taking the small piece of meat, Leo's hands, as a high-level warrior, couldn't help but tremble a little.

"I have a son?"

Freya stood on his shoulder, looking at the tiny Balder, and cried because of his ugliness, "So ugly! How can he be so ugly!"

The skin of a newborn baby has not yet stretched out and looks wrinkled, and its body may even be deformed due to the squeezing during delivery.

The cubs of various races that Freya saw all grew for a period of time after birth. They were either furry or chubby, and all looked very good. This cub was the only one that she witnessed being born with her own eyes.

Olivia had just completed a difficult childbirth, the bed was soaked with sweat, and her body was extremely weak. When she heard this, she opened her eyes and showed worry.

Taking her child from Leo, Olivia checked it carefully and finally felt relieved. "It's very healthy! All newborn babies are like this."

As the mistress of River Bay who wields the power of holy light, Olivia has witnessed the birth of countless babies and is well aware of their newborn state.

Six, Fraser and a group of other friends put their heads close to the bedside and gathered around to see the newborn baby. Then they were all so embarrassed that they cried and ran away without looking back.

"So ugly! So ugly!"

Balder seemed to feel disgusted and burst into tears.

Antonise looked at the peaceful scene and smiled.

The Holy Light is the light of enlightenment for the rise of mankind, representing new life and prosperity. True believers attach great importance to the reproduction and prosperity of the human race.

The Bader people are as their name suggests, and they are also natural born extraordinary people that are rare in a thousand years. As long as they don't go astray in the future, they will definitely be one of the candidates for the Holy Light Pope.

At this time, Antonisse seemed to understand Master Bobak's true intention.

"I must train such a chosen one well."

Having made up his mind, Antonice said to Leo, "Leo Mondo, I remember that you are the adopted father of the Imperial Princess Gullveig?"

Leo nodded and said, "Yes, Gulveig is a princess of the Empire, but she is also a little mouse of the River Bay."

Antonisse smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I am the godfather of Charles VI, the grandfather of the Emperor of the Empire."

Leo was confused when he heard this, thinking that your relationship is a bit distant.

After Anthony had finished visiting his relatives, he said bluntly: "I haven't presided over the baptism of new blood for nearly a hundred years. Perhaps I can be Balder's godfather."

In the southern territory where the Church of Holy Light fully covers, every newborn baby will be baptized by the priest in the church of the parish after birth, and the parents will designate a trusted elder to be the godfather of the newborn baby.

The status of the godfather is second only to that of the biological parents, and he is responsible for the religious education of his children. The religious education in the South also includes cultural education and moral education.

In some places, godfathers even have to take on the obligation of raising their godchildren and need to ensure the healthy growth of their godchildren.

In the Isenbor area, including the river bend, only one-third of the people believe in the Holy Light, and most of them are pan-believers. The custom of godfathers is not popular.

After all, everyone is raising their own cubs, and no one has the energy to take care of other people's offspring.

Hearing Antonisse's words, Leo hesitated, "Whether Balder should choose to believe in the Holy Light, we should wait until he grows up, right?"

Anthony looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Your son peed on my face. This revenge must be avenged. Be my godson and I will let him go."

Leo was speechless. "You are the Cardinal Archbishop of the Southern Territory. You can find any godson you want. Why do you keep staring at my son?"

"This is the Son of Holy Light."

Leo retorted, "My son first."

Antonis was very surprised. It was the first time he met someone who rejected him.

When he first became the Cardinal Archbishop of the Southern Territory, he delivered the eldest son of the emperor, who later became Charles VI. The Emperor promised him a Cathedral of the Holy Light that was as big as the imperial palace in exchange for his agreement to become the godfather of Charles VI.

In the southern territory, this is an opportunity that is hard to come by. Not to mention him, a "living saint", even if the Bishop of Holy Light in a small diocese told the believers that their children were born with visions and were children of Holy Light, these believers would send their children to the church without hesitation.

On second thought, Antonisse understood the concerns of Rio's ruler and explained, "I have adopted Balder as my godson. I will not take him away, nor will I get involved in the religious disputes in the Reach."

Leo didn't agree immediately, "I have to think about it."

As a person who had experienced it, Leo knew very well that the struggle of faith in River Bay had begun the first moment Balder recognized Antonisse as his godfather.

The mistress of River Bay is already the "Goddess of Holy Light" admired by everyone, and the heir of River Bay has become the "Son of Holy Light". What will the people of the territory think? What will the Church of Holy Light think?

I am afraid that there is no need to wait for Balder to inherit the River Bend before the River Bend is completely covered by the faith of Holy Light.

There are earl families in the North who have family members who believe in the Holy Light, but there has not yet been a northern earl who has converted to the Holy Light.

If Leo rashly agrees, what will the Ancestral Temple in the North think? What will the Grand Duke think?

All of this takes time to consider.

Seeing that Leo did not agree, Antonisse was not discouraged, but slowed down and said: "Don't worry, I will stay in the courtyard for a few days, and then continue to guard the gate north. Every two years, I will come to the river bend."

He turned his head to look at the weak Olivia lying on the bed, and with a light tap, the magic power in the entire room was instantly transformed into the power of holy light, which was then absorbed by Olivia.

Olivia's body recovered quickly and returned to normal in a blink of an eye.

The overflowing holy light touched Olivia, who had already reached a high level. She hugged Balder, closed her eyes, and felt it carefully. Then, a vortex of light golden magic rolled up around her body.

After a moment, she opened her eyes and said with joy, "I have been promoted to the intermediate level."

Olivia, who awakened naturally, was promoted naturally again!

Antonisse gave Olivia some pointers, then said goodbye to Leo, "I'm going back to the atrium first. The inheritance of the atrium has given me a lot of new ideas that I'm eager to experiment with."

Leo hurriedly saw the guest off, "Please go ahead. The atrium is always open to you."

In the next few days, Leo was not in the mood to receive Archbishop Antonese, but instead stayed at home to act as a nanny.

As the Earl of the North, he had to pick up his own son's feces and urine. It was the first time in his two lifetimes that he felt so embarrassed.

Fortunately, he had a large group of friends, and with everyone working together, he finally got through the initial adaptation period.

At this time, the advantages of family harmony were reflected. All day long, there were always more than three people following Olivia, taking the initiative to help take care of the cubs.

Although everyone dislikes Balder because he is ugly, he is Olivia's biological son, so everyone works hard to take care of him.

With their help, Olivia and Leo can still find time to handle government affairs and maintain the basic operation of the Earldom of Riverbend.

A few days later, Grant brought envoys from the Odalov family, Rigolav brought envoys from the nobles of Arbroath, and Nairn brought envoys from the nobles of Isenbol, all gathered at the River Bay to celebrate the birth of Balder.

The Earl of River Bay now has an heir, which is a major benefit to both the vassal families and the allied families. Everyone is eager to come and strengthen relations.
