The hall was silent, and everyone looked at Horn. Horn's face was as deep as water, and he slowly turned around, looking at the boy who spoke boldly.
Back then, Lanni eloped with a man of unknown origin and escaped from the floating island. Horne would remove the most beloved daughter from the family in a rage. Now that ten years have passed, the wound that once injured the visible bone has gradually healed. Especially finding Allen back was even more comforting for Horn. Out of the mentality of compensation, coupled with Alan's own abilities, Horn intends to cultivate this grandson as an heir.
But now, this bold boy has opened Horn's wounds. The four people of the "skins on the surface" even sprinkled a handful of salt on his wounds, and Allen's father was absolutely a taboo for him. Now, the boy spoke out brazenly.
"Grandpa, didn't you say how strict Bethkod’s house rules are? How come I don’t look like it, isn’t it you who lied to me?" A voice rang, but it was from the Morsen family. Adele. She looked at Kate innocently and said: "Look, a kid who jumps out can question Grandpa Horn's decision. This is also called the strict family rules?"
"Adele..." Old Kate groaned with a headache, and looked at his granddaughter and said: "Just help me, shut up your evil little mouth!"
At the same time, looking at Adele, the loud boy, and Roddy. Roddy's eyes were wide open, and his eyes filled with anger, looking scary. Adele stuck out her tongue and ran behind Kate and said, "Uncle Roddy don't look at me like that. Adele doesn't understand anything. Don't take what I just said to your heart."
Rody laughed in anger. The fairy of the Morsen family was already involved in the family business at a young age, so how could he be someone who doesn't understand anything. If someone treats her as an innocent little girl, it's really hell.
"Rainer, your family budget for the second half of the year will be halved. Now give it to me." At this time, Horn said in a calm tone and looked at his eldest son Roddy: "Maybe you should have someone Teach him what is polite."
"I'm sorry, father." Roddy smiled bitterly, and when he turned to look at his son, he put on a ferocious face: "Reina, let's get out of here!"
"But father..."
"Get out!" Roddy almost burst out this low drink from his mouth full of steel teeth. He would have roared if it hadn't been for the presence of outsiders like Kate.
Reina looked at Ellen angrily, as if he wanted to kill him on the spot. Allen looked at him calmly, which made Renner even more annoyed. As he walked by Ellen's side, he said in a low voice: "You wait for me, my brother!"
After Reiner left, Horn announced his free activities, followed by social time. It is the first time that Allen has participated in social networking in the upper class, and has no idea what to do. Roddy did not leave him in the cold, and talked with him for a while. Especially Roddy, even though his son gave Horn a heavy punishment, he still looked bold and joked with Allen as if he had forgotten that one happened just now.
For the foreign guests, in addition to Kate, some other guests also voted for Allen with kind olive branches. These people can become Horn's guests, which one is not a fine fellow. Seeing Horne almost stiffly stated his position, all guessed that Allen would be the next child of Bethkod's next focus, and they all rushed to talk to Allen. They know very well that if they don't seize the opportunity now, they will convey friendship to this lucky boy. When Alan has his own circle, it will be difficult to get in again.
Among them, there are even those who suggest that Alan can be married, which makes the teenagers from the surface feel a little at a loss.
In fact, Kate is also included in this plan. But he also knew that Alan would not be able to put forward this idea outright before he entered the heir sequence. After all, Mawson and Bethkod are both famous people now, how can they marry off the women of the clan casually.
For things like today, foreign guests like them are not needed to be present. Horn made such an arrangement to show his position to his friends in the circle and recommend Allen. Secondly, it is also based on the calculation of checking and balancing the family's internal forces with the help of foreign forces, in order to reduce Allen's future resistance on the road.
Old Kate saw all this in his eyes and made his own plans.
Finally the guests let Alan go, and the boy breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the lights in the room, I felt that I thought I had adapted to the prosperity of Babylon, but still dazzled my eyes at the glitz of this moment. He quietly retreated to the corner, suddenly feeling that something was looking at him. Looking in the direction of perception, a hideous devil's head jumped into Allen's eyes.
This demonic head is hung on the curtain wall in the middle of the hall, supported and fixed by metal branches. Allen walked over and looked carefully. The skin of this head is dark red. It is not known whether it has been processed by a certain process or is the original. The surface of the skin glows with a metal-like luster under the light. It makes the head look like a piece of red iron.
On the forehead, there are many black bone spurs. The protruding cheekbones caused a pair of eye sockets to sink deeply, casting a large shadow on the cheeks. In the shadows, a pair of eyes flickered under the radiance of the light as if they were covered with icy debris. At first, Allen thought it was just some kind of handicraft, but from below, he could see a small cervical vertebrae protruding from under his neck.
"This is Blade Demon, one of the most dangerous alien life in Outland Yodon." A voice sounded behind Allen.
Alan turned around and saw a beautiful boy. He was about the same age as himself, with a sunny face and a pair of sea-blue eyes. The appearance is somewhat similar to Bell, especially the pupils of the same color. It's just that Bell's eyes are reminiscent of the ice-filled ocean, and the boy in front of him makes people see the clean sky.
"My name is Regis." The boy reached out his hand, and Alan noticed that he was still holding a long sword in his other hand.
"Allen."
After shook hands with this seemingly friendly brother, Allen asked humbly: "What is Blade Demon?"
"A creature that hates any life. Their bone hardness is close to metal. Some parts of the body can eject bone blades like blades. It is worth mentioning that the blood of these things is comparable to fire oil. Use it as fuel." Regis pointed to the head on the curtain wall and said: "That was the demon general Habik who fought and beheaded in Outland Yodon when Grandpa was young. This was a feat at the time. . After all, apart from the Federation and Idahua’s army, we, Beth Kod, were the first nobles to fight on the chaotic battlefield of the Yorton Star Territory. The achievements of the grandfather back then, even the wealthiest men were also looked down upon, that’s okay. Said it was the most glorious time in the family." Regis's small face was full of respect: "I hope that in the future, I can expedition to Yodon and kill those dirty guys like my grandfather!"
Listening to these words, Alan couldn't help but look at Horn. At this moment Regis said: "I heard that you are the winner of the death ring?"
"Yes."
Regis nodded and said: "I've seen the scene of your battle, your knife is good. Let's try it out when we have time."
He lifted the sword in his hand and tapped Alan's chest with the handle of the sword.
Allen gently pushed away the handle of the sword: "I am happy to accompany you."
Regis laughed: "I'm starting to like you, Ellen. Renner and they are afraid to compete with me, it's terrible." After speaking, the boy walked to the other side.
Allen smiled, he didn't dislike the brother Regis. Although Regis was young, he had gradually revealed his edge. From his eyes, Allen saw a vast sky. Perhaps this boy, Horne said, the boy who holds a starry sky.
At this time, a faint voice sounded: "If it were me, I wouldn't allow Regis's little madman to compete with swords."
Alan looked at it, and a big boy with impeccable looks and dress came over with a glass of wine and handed one of them to Allen. He said graciously: "I am Kodov and Heydrick is my father."
"Then, my brother. Just now I seemed to hear you promise to compete with Regis?"
"Are there any questions?" Allen asked, taking the glass.
Kordoff shrugged his shoulders and said, “Do you know why we don’t compete with that kid? Because that’s a little madman. He’s not a competition, he is desperate. So if you compete with him, don’t remember. Don't think about any kind of mercy or something like that. Otherwise..."
He wiped his throat.
Allen conquered the land and looked at him, Kodoff laughed, patted little Allen on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I just made you play with it. Although the little lunatic is going to be crazy, it’s a headache, but it’s not. The kind of person who doesn’t know the severity, don’t worry, just fight him."
"Scared me." Allen patted his chest and said, he wasn't afraid that Regis would fight desperately. It's just that, he will inevitably have to use ruthless tricks, and it won't be good for anyone to win.
"You are so funny. I have the opportunity to ask you some interesting things about the surface. In return, I can teach you how to be a real man." Kodov blinked and added: "Is no girl I know Less."
"Really? Why didn't you introduce me to me!" Adele's open voice intervened.
Hearing her voice, Kodoff immediately put on a bitter face: "Mosen's fairy, no, I got a headache when I saw her, Alan, I'll go first."
Then he left Alan unscrupulously and had a haha with Adele. Kodov left in embarrassment like a mouse hitting a cat. Adele walked to Alan's side, reached out to grab the wine glass in his hand, and poured the unfinished wine into her mouth.
"That's..." Allen felt a little embarrassed. Adele did this for the wine glass he had just drunk, wouldn't it be equivalent to indirect kissing?
Adele raised her eyebrows and said: "Why, I will send Bethkoder's Tyrannosaurus and Snow Lizard for you, you should thank me, what happened to me for a drink?"
