There was no sound in the hall, and everyone looked at Horn. Horn's face sank like water, and he turned around slowly, looking at the boy who spoke boldly.
Back then, Lan Ni eloped with a man of unknown origin and escaped from the floating island. It was only in a rage that Horn removed his favorite daughter from the family. Now ten years have passed, and the wound that once hurt the visible bone has gradually healed. In particular, finding Alan is even more of a comfort to Horn. Out of compensatory psychology, coupled with Alan's own ability, Horn intends to cultivate this grandson as an heir.
But now, this bold boy opened Horn's wound. The four "ground bastards" sprinkled a handful of salt on his wounds. Alan's father was definitely a taboo for him. Now, the boy spoke out without hesitation.
"Grandpa, didn't you say how strict Beth Keld's family rules are? I don't look like it. Could it be you who lied to me?" A voice rang out, but it was Adele from the Mossen family . She looked at Kate innocently and said, "Look, a kid who jumps out at random can question Grandpa Horn's decision. Is this also called strict family rules?"
"Adele..." Old Kate groaned with a headache, looked at her granddaughter and said, "Just think of it as helping me, and shut up your little mouth that is harmful to people!"
At the same time, looking at Adele was the loud boy and Roddy. Roddy's eyes were wide open, and his eyes were full of anger, looking scary. Adele stuck out her tongue, ran behind old 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 heart."
Luo Di was furious and laughed back. The goblin of the Mossen family had been involved in managing the family business at a young age, so how could he be someone who didn't understand anything. It would be hell if anyone took her for an innocent little girl.
"Reina, your family budget for the second half of the year will be halved. Come down now." At this time, Horn said in a calm tone, and looked at his eldest son Roddy again: "Maybe you should let someone teach him , what is politeness?"
"I'm sorry, father." Rody smiled wryly, and when he turned to look at his son, he had already put on a hideous face: "Reina, get out of here!"
"But father..."
"Get out!" Rody almost yelled out from his mouth full of steel teeth. If he hadn't taken into account that there was an outsider like Kate, he would have already roared.
Renner looked at Allen angrily, wanting to kill him on the spot. Allen looked at him calmly, which made Reina even more annoyed. When he walked past Allen, he said in a low voice: "You wait for me, my brother!"
After Reina left, Horn declared freedom of movement, followed by social time. It was the first time for Allen to participate in the social interaction of high society, and he didn't know what to do. Luo Di and the others did not neglect him, and chatted with him for a while. Especially Rody, even though his son gave Horn a heavy punishment, he still looked bold, talking and laughing loudly with Allen, as if he forgot what happened just now.
As for the foreign guests, besides Kate, some other guests also offered kind olive branches to Allen. These people can become Horn's guests, which one is not a smart guy. Seeing Horn's almost strong position, he guessed that Allen would be Bethkind's successor.
The children who came to focus on training all rushed to chat with Alan. They're well aware if they don't take the opportunity now to convey friendship to this lucky teenager. When Alan has his own circle, it will be difficult to get in again.
Among them, there are even those who hinted that Alan could get married, which made the teenagers from the surface a little at a loss.
In fact, those who have such intentions also include Kate. However, he also knew that one day before Allen entered the line of heirs, he could not blatantly put forward this idea. After all, Mosen and Beth Kede are both famous people now, how can they marry off the women of the clan casually.
Originally, things like today would not have required the presence of foreign guests like them. Horn made such an arrangement to express his position to friends in the circle and recommend Allen. Secondly, it is also based on the calculation of using external forces to check and balance the family's internal calculations, so as to reduce Allen's resistance on the road in the future.
Old Kate saw all this in her eyes and had her own plans.
Finally, those guests let Alan go, and the boy was relieved. Looking at the lights in the room, I felt that I thought I had adapted to the prosperity of Babylon, but I was still dazzled by the glitz at this moment. He retreated quietly to the corner, suddenly felt something was looking at him. Looking in the direction of perception, a ferocious devil's head jumped into Allen's eyes.
This devilish head was hung on the curtain wall in the middle of the hall, supported by metal branches. Allen walked over and looked carefully. The skin of this head is dark red, whether it has been processed by some kind of craft or it is original, the surface of the skin glows with a metallic 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 large shadows under the cheeks. In the shadows, a pair of eyes seemed to be covered with shards of ice, shining under the light. Allen thought it was just some kind of handicraft at first, but looking from below, he could see a small piece of cervical vertebra protruding from the neck.
"This is the Blade Demon, one of the most dangerous alien life forms in the Outland Jotun." A voice sounded behind Allen.
Allen turned around and saw a beautiful boy. About the same age as myself, 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 an ocean covered with ice, while the boy in front of him makes people see a clean sky.
"My name is Regis." The boy stretched out his hand, and it was only then that Allen noticed that he was still holding a long sword in his other hand.
"Alan."
After shaking hands with this seemingly friendly brother, Allen asked humbly: "What is the Blade Demon?"
"A creature that hates any life. The hardness of their bones is close to that of metal. There are certain parts of the body that can eject bone blades like blades. It is worth mentioning that the blood of these things is comparable to fire oil and can be used as fuel. Use." Regis pointed to the head on the curtain wall and said, "It was Habik, a demon general who was conquered and beheaded by my grandfather when he was young. This was a feat at the time. After all, apart from Apart from the army of the Federation and Star Idahua, we, Beth Keld, were the first nobles to fight in the chaotic battlefield of the Jotun star field. Even the rich and powerful also paid attention to the achievements of the grandfather, which can be said to be
The most glorious time of the family. Regis's small face was full of respect: "I hope that in the future, I can also go on an expedition to Jotun like grandpa and kill those dirty guys!" "
Hearing these words, Allen couldn't help but look at Horn, and then Regis said again: "I heard that you are the winner of the death ring?"
"Yes."
Regis nodded and said, "I've seen the scene of your battle, and your knife is very good. Let's compete when we have time."
He raised the sword in his hand and tapped Alan's chest with the handle.
Allen gently pushed the sword handle away: "I am happy to accompany you."
Regis laughed: "I'm starting to like you, Alan. Renner and the others dare not compete with me, it's terrible." After finishing speaking, the boy walked to the other side.
Allen smiled, he was not disgusted with the brother Regis. Although Regis is young, he has gradually shown his edge. From his eyes, Allen sees a vast sky. Maybe this boy is the boy Horn said, the boy who pretended to be a starry sky.
At this time, a faint voice sounded: "If it were me, I wouldn't agree to a sword fight with Regis' little lunatic."
Allen looked, and a big boy with impeccable appearance and clothes came over with wine glasses and handed one of them to Allen. He said gracefully: "I am Kodov, and Heydrick is my father."
"So, my brother. I seem to have heard you agree to a sword fight with Regis just now?"
"Is there a question?" Allen asked, taking the glass.
Kodov shrugged and said, "Do you know why we don't compete with that kid? Because he is a little lunatic, and he is not called a competition, but desperate. So if you compete with him, please remember not to think about it." What kind of mercy. Or else..."
He made a motion to wipe his throat.
Allen looked at him conspicuously, Kodov laughed, patted Little Allen on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, I just teased you. Although the little lunatic is crazy, it makes people headache, but it's not the kind of ignorance. If you are a serious person, you can rest assured that you can fight him."
"Scared me." Allen patted his chest and said, he was not afraid that Regis would fight desperately. It's just that in that case, he will definitely have to use ruthless moves, and it won't be good for anyone to lose the lottery.
"You are so interesting. I have the opportunity to ask you some interesting things about the lower surface. In return, I can teach you how to be a real man." Kedov blinked and added: "I know quite a few girls."
"Really? Then why didn't I see you introduce me!" Adele cut in with a flamboyant voice.
Hearing her voice, Kodov immediately put on a bitter face: "The goblin of the Mossen family, no, I get a headache when I see her, Alan, I'm leaving first."
Then he left Alan very unscrupulously, and had a haha with Adele, and Kodov left in a little embarrassment like a mouse bumping into a cat. Adele walked up to Allen, reached out and grabbed the wine glass in his hand, and poured the unfinished wine into her mouth in one gulp.
"That's..." Allen felt a little embarrassed. Wouldn't Adele's doing the same thing as an indirect kiss for the wine glass he had just drank
Adele raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, I'll get rid of Bethcord's tyrannosaurus and snow lizard for you, you should thank me, what's wrong with buying me a glass of wine?"
