Henrietta's laughter didn't make Aigron relax, of course he could hear what it meant.

Although he was not touched by his eyes, he could clearly feel that the whole restaurant was paused for him, and even the children sitting next to him seemed to be waiting for his answer.

"Teresa is really understanding." He nodded, and then replied, "Every time I talk to her, I feel very happy."

"Oh? Is it? It seems that you are too young after all, and you still have too much to say." Henrietta still smiled, "It will be different after a long time, like me... until now I have long I'm too lazy to listen to what the old guy is saying...hahahaha..."

Aigron glanced at Archduke Karl, and found that he was still eating with a blank expression, pouring wine from the side jug made of high-quality wood from time to time, as if he didn't hear what his wife was saying at all.

If you pick up another newspaper, it will be even more appropriate.

A commander who once commanded thousands of troops is sitting quietly at the dining table, listening to his wife scold him. Perhaps this is the family life he is nostalgic for.

"We are different." Just as he was thinking, Teresa suddenly refuted his mother's words, "Your Highness is a very good storyteller, and I like to listen to stories. I think as long as there are new stories, there will always be something to talk about." chat."

"Your Highness can tell stories?" Her second brother, Ferdinand, who was only eight years old, asked sullenly, "Is it the stories in fairy tale books?"

"It's much better than that." Teresa replied with a little pride, "It's the stories that even adults will find very interesting."

"I don't believe it." Her elder brother, Albrecht, who had been hostile to Aigron just now, looked suspicious, "You must be lying, you just want your parents to like His Highness, so you keep saying Well, it's been that way from the beginning."

Teresa's face flushed suddenly, obviously her younger brother hit the mark.

"I'm not exaggerating, I'm just stating what I've seen." She replied reluctantly. "What do you know, a kid like you?"

"You are only a few years older than me, don't you know a lot?" Albrecht grimaced disdainfully, "Dad complained yesterday that you wanted to get married at such an age, and you didn't care about it at all." he."

The sudden words froze the air in the restaurant.

"Abbott, you bastard, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw you out of the window later!" A moment later, Teresa was so angry that she picked up the fork and waved it, threatening her younger brother. "It seems that the family usually spoils you, how dare you do this!"

"When you change your surname, you won't belong to this family anymore!" Albrecht seemed a little flustered, but for the sake of face, he still held on and sneered in a low voice.

"Enough!" Mother Henrietta was still watching the children's bickering jokes, but now she couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly scolded her son. "Abbott, shut up right away, go to the attic by yourself after eating, and promise to come down at night!"

It seemed that his mother's intimidation finally had an effect, Albrecht could only bow his head resentfully, and didn't dare to say anything more.

Aigron, who witnessed this situation, couldn't help laughing.

"Puff ha ha ha..."

At the beginning, his whisper was still very soft, but soon, the laughter became louder and louder. In the end, everyone's original embarrassment was also resolved in the laughter.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry to make you laugh." Henrietta laughed sheepishly, "It's really difficult to manage boys at this age! Oh, if only I gave birth to daughters."

"No, ma'am, I don't mind at all. In fact, I find it very interesting." Aigron shook his head, "I have no brothers and sisters—I mean, although my mother remarried Earl Nepeg and gave birth to other children." children,

But I have never met them, let alone had any feelings and contacts with each other. So, I've never experienced this family quarrel feeling, so when I look on, it makes me a little envious, at least you both value each other. "

"You're right." Henrietta nodded approvingly, "Family brings troubles, but more importantly, it brings emotional sustenance. As we grow older, everything we have experienced will fade away. Will become a distant memory, and in the end, we'll all just find our place in the family."

After a while, she added with comfort and encouragement, "Things in the past were beyond your control, and you have suffered enough; but now, you are still young, and you still have many opportunities to Starting a family of your own... I think if you want to, you'll be a very happy parent, to put it bluntly - as happy as we are. And I, would love to see that happen."

Then, she quietly looked at Teresa, whose face was still blushing.

"Teresa, my daughter, don't take Abbott's nonsense just now to heart. He just deliberately angered you. No matter what happens, you are our daughter. No matter what surname you will be named in the future, we will treat you There will never be any less love for you, there will always be a place for you—”

Although her words were simple and her tone was calm, Teresa was extremely moved.

"Thanks, mother, I certainly don't take his nonsense seriously."

Aigron also felt very happy watching the warm interaction between the mother and daughter.

If he had to use an adjective to describe this family, he thinks it should be "positive energy". The family members love each other. They are doing their best to support their daughter.

Perhaps it is because of such a family atmosphere that Teresa has developed a character like her.

But after a while, the young man felt something was wrong again.

Before I finished the meal, I suddenly brought up the topic of changing my surname...

Wait, if you suddenly say something like this, does it mean that there is an imperial order?

Thinking of this, he felt a little guilty again, and didn't dare to say another word.

Unfortunately, although he intends to dodge, it is absolutely impossible for Henrietta to ignore today's protagonist.

"Frantz?" she called out.

"Any orders?" Eggron responded.

"Actually, Abbott has never said a word wrongly. Teresa has indeed been saying good things about you." She looked at the young man with a smile. The impression was excellent - so good that I was even a little worried that I would be disappointed if I actually met someone, but I am relieved that my worries were in vain, and I am very happy to have a guest like you in our family."

"It's also my honor." Aigron put down the tableware, and thanked his wife solemnly.

"Smile at me," said Henrietta, laughing. "Young people look good when they smile."

Aigron could only forcibly pull the corners of his mouth to make himself smile more happily.

"That's right!" Henrietta clapped her hands lightly, "You still have decades to spend in your life, and it would be too difficult to keep looking sad, so be optimistic about everything."

"What you said is completely reasonable, but everything I have encountered so far makes me not very optimistic." Aigron replied in a low voice, "But in the future, I will try to do what you said."

"Teresa——" Henrietta greeted her daughter, "This is also your responsibility in a sense... If you volunteered to be His Highness's best friend, then you have to help him laugh a lot , isn't it?"

Although Teresa was a little shy in her heart, she still nodded after all. "Mom, I will."

Speaking of this, Aigron was already a little worried, for fear that the Grand Duchess would suddenly say when do you plan to get engaged——

Fortunately, she seemed to think that there was no need to rush this matter, so she finally didn't mention the last step, allowing Aegron to breathe and finish the delicious lunch.

After lunch, the family members either went to take a nap, or came to the living room to chat and chat, but after a while, after digesting the food, Grand Duke Karl, who had been silent all this time, suddenly walked in front of him.

"Young man, let's do some after-dinner exercise."

"Of course." Aigron was a little surprised, but immediately agreed, "But——what do you mean?"

"Captain Foresty has always praised you in front of me, saying that you are his rare student, and you have completely learned the essence of his swordsmanship... So, he successfully aroused my curiosity." Archduke Karl Shrugging, "I want to know if he's telling the truth, or exaggerating."

"...You..." Aigron shook his head hesitantly, "Why don't you change to another sport?"

It's not that he's afraid of showing cowardice, but that he's really afraid that he'll make a mistake in confiscating his hand—he hasn't learned the skill of Archduke Karl before and doesn't know it, but the other party's age is fifty-five years old, and he's physically capable. Degeneration is inevitable.

Therefore, if he accidentally hurt the Grand Duke, then the matter would be in serious trouble, and he might become a wanted criminal in advance...

"You seem to have forgotten that I am the master here, and I have the right to decide how to entertain the guests." Archduke Karl raised his head slightly arrogantly, "Also, instead of worrying about hurting me, you should worry about losing yourself." What should I do if it happens, it is directly related to my evaluation of you..."

After a pause, he added, "Besides, don't worry, everyone here is a witness. If something happens, no one will hold you accountable."

"Father! What are you doing!" Teresa was a little startled, and hurriedly stopped her.

"Teresa, don't worry about it. I want to have a man's conversation with him. Let me make sure that everything you and I have done is worthwhile." Grand Duke Karl waved his hand, motioning his daughter to stop talking , and then continued to stare at Aigron, "How is it? Franz, dare to accept the challenge? Are you going to face it head-on, or are you going to hide yourself forever under the flamboyant rhetoric?"

Teresa was anxious, but she didn't dare to talk anymore. She knew that her father was usually very talkative, but when he was serious, he would never allow perfunctory. So she could only look at the two of them anxiously.

But the Grand Duke's provocative eyes and words aroused the anger in the young man's heart.

That being the case, come on!

"Okay, Your Highness." He stood up, and then bowed to the Grand Duke, "I am very honored."

"Okay, come with me." Archduke Karl nodded.

Then, the two walked out of the mansion together, and came to an open space outside. This open space was very flat, and there were soft grass on the ground. It was indeed a very ideal place.

Teresa followed behind all the time, for fear that something would happen between the two of them.

"Let me be the referee, Dad!" She demanded forcefully, "Otherwise I won't allow you to mess around."

"Yes, as long as you don't take sides." Archduke Karl shrugged and answered sarcastically.

Then the servant brought over two training swords, unsharpened and smoothed at the top. Like two iron rods.

Aigron took one casually, then waved it lightly, looking for the feel of the hand, allowing himself to adapt to the center of gravity of the sword.

"It seems that you really learned well." Seeing his subconscious movements, Grand Duke Karl nodded. "However, how many real talents are actually learned, it has to be verified in practice."

Then, the two held swords, and looked at each other a few steps away.

Aigron slightly lowered his shoulders, and then adjusted his breathing.

He didn't know how far he should control, and now he had to adapt to the situation.

"Teresa, you can start shouting." Grand Duke Karl greeted his daughter.

"Daddy!" Teresa protested again.

But her protest didn't get any response, and she had no choice but to look at the two people in front of her.

Hope they end sooner.

"Start!" Seeing that her father was determined to go his own way, she had no choice but to yell out.

At this moment, Grand Duke Karl took a sudden step, and then moved the sword in his hand upwards, stabbing towards Egron's body.

He is very fast. Considering his age, it is really not easy. It can be seen that he has always maintained physical exercise.

But... it's not fast enough compared to the boy's teacher.

Aigron, who had already adapted to the teacher's rhythm, dodged to the side lightly, dodging the blow.

However, at the moment when the stabbing failed, Archduke Karl slashed heavily to the lower right, and Egron had no choice but to continue to take a step back, while blocking the blow with his sword.

When the two swords intersected, there was a crisp metal sound, and the young man felt a little numb in his wrist, but he did not expect that his strength was also maintained well.

But... that's all.

Aigron is sure that even when he was young, he was not his opponent, let alone now.

However, how should everyone end up decently?

"What's the matter? Are you still hesitating?" Grand Duke Karl temporarily stopped, and then shouted at him, "Do you still think you have everything? Still dare not fight! You are so wrong, fool!"

"What did you say?" Aigron was a little puzzled.

"It's good that you can hold your breath, but you also need to be able to move!" Grand Duke Karl continued to look at him, "Bloodlines give you tickets to enter that arena, but bloodlines can't guarantee your victory, no opponent will Because of whose son you are, let alone because of whose son-in-law you are, you will not automatically kneel and surrender, if you want them to kneel, you have to use your fist!"

Then he raised his arm, clenched his fist, and signaled, "Only by knocking them down without hesitation, and then continuing to hit them mercilessly, so that they can never stand up again, can you win-and only win Only then will you be compensated for your hard work and pain, so you tell me—young man, do you want to win? If you don’t want to win, you don’t deserve anything!"
