Chapter 192 Return to the Moriah Family

Chapter 192 Return to the Moriah Family ( words updated, please subscribe)
Yalong City.

In front of the Duke's Mansion, there was a thick red carpet inlaid with intricate golden patterns. On both sides of the gate stood knights in armor, holding spears, looking majestic and solemn.

Many nobles gathered in the square in front of the gate. The men wore silk robes and carried exquisite swords. Most of them were retainers of the Moria family. The ladies wore gorgeous fluffy long skirts, wore golden crowns inlaid with gems on their heads, and held lace-trimmed parasols. They fanned their feather fans, whispered to each other, and watched curiously, hoping to meet the new noble of the empire soon.

The carriage slowly stopped at the door. A man in a black tuxedo and a half-top hat opened the door respectfully.

A maid in an elegant long dress helped a blond, blue-eyed, exceptionally handsome young man out of the car.

"Oh, look, this is Lee En."

"He looks even more handsome than in the pictures in the newspapers."

"Although I don't like having a younger brother suddenly, he seems to be a good guy."

The noble girls started talking, but the men seemed much more reserved, probably because most of them were retainers or distant relatives.

Grand Duke Moria has many children, but his sons either went to the North or other territories after they grew up, and most of his daughters married far away. However, for the future of their next generation, some children still chose to send their children to be raised by Grand Duke Moria.

The only ones left at home now are the Grand Duke's youngest daughter Kelly Moriah, who has not yet married, granddaughters Angelina Moriah and Diane Moriah, grandson Parker Moriah, and Lean Moriah, who has just returned to the family.

When Li En Moria arrived at the Duke's Mansion, they were all waiting at the door, including the Grand Duke himself. The servants lined up respectfully in two rows, like guards waiting for inspection. This posture was several times more dignified than when Li En became the Lord of Green Shade.

Looking at the densely packed entries, Li En could only sigh in his heart that there were so many people in the Moria family.

And this is when most of Moria's direct descendants are in the North. Is this the real big family in the legend?

The fact that the Duke personally came to greet Li En was enough to show how much he valued him.

Grand Duke Moria is the most powerful person in the kingdom besides the Pope and the King. Even when the King is present, he will often wait in the castle and will not go to the door in person.

The Duke's Mansion obviously did not celebrate the Magic Festival, which made Anne feel as if the cheerful and novel atmosphere had suddenly switched to a serious and old-fashioned court drama.

Anne couldn't help but feel the pressure building up.

Because Li En only has one servant, while Grand Duke Moria has countless people around him.

"Li En, here I come."

A smile appeared on Grand Duke Moria's face.

This surprised the nobles present. Normally, they hardly saw any expression on the face of this serious old man. Even though it was rumored that he was so romantic and handsome in his youth, now he was a typical Conservative, an inviolable family elder and Prime Minister of the Empire.

"Grandpa, I'm here."

Li En responded with a smile.

His smile was like the warm spring sunshine, making 80% of the women present feel their hearts beating fast, especially the young girls who were just beginning to fall in love.

But most of them are Li En's cousins. Although in this society, there is no opposition to marriage within the family, Li En, as a modern person, cannot accept this.

He doesn't want his future child to be mentally retarded and a demon.

So when he heard the girls' accelerated heartbeats, Li En chose to ignore them. In fact, he couldn't see them either.

"Come on, kid."

Grand Duke Moria waved to Li En, and Li En walked to his side.

He took Li En into the old luxury carriage that belonged to him.

The nobles also boarded their cars and drove all the way from the main gate to Alexburg.

In the magnificent banquet hall, the firelight from the fireplace and the hanging tapestries intertwined to create a warm color. Grand Duke Moria prepared a family banquet for Li En.

The tables were spread with fine tablecloths, set with fine china and sparkling crystal glasses. Champagne frothed in the glasses, while a variety of delicious foods exuded an enticing aroma: grilled meats, sausages, fresh fish, cheeses... and dishes prepared with seasonal vegetables and herbs.

Everyone sat around the long table.

"This is your aunt Kelly, she is my little daughter."

Kylie Moriah's blonde hair glowed softly in the sun, and every strand of her hair seemed to speak of aristocratic elegance and composure.

Her emerald eyes were like the most precious gems in the deep sea, clear and deep, as if holding stars. They were both gentle and sharp, revealing a hidden wisdom. When she lowered her gaze slightly, her long eyelashes fluttered, like a butterfly gently fluttering across the surface of a lake, adding a touch of mystery and allure.

Her hand gently stroked the gorgeous down fan, and her eyes looked Li En up and down.

She was very interested in this heroic nephew who had returned from the South.

Perhaps she inherited the temperament of Grand Duke Moria, she is a very passionate woman.

Although Li En didn't see her beautiful face, he could get a glimpse of it from the entries about her.

[Duke's Daughter][Beautiful][Romantic][Intelligent][Playful][Indulgent][Kind][Talented][Enthusiastic]

"Good morning, Aunt Kelly. I'm sorry I couldn't see your beauty."

Li En said politely that he had judged from the entry that although this aunt had never married, she had many lovers.

She opposed the imperial marriage law, which only allowed men to have three wives and four concubines, but did not allow women to have the same rights. She also said that if the empire did not establish an equal marriage law, she would never marry.

Because of this, she was very uncooperative with old Moria's conservative style, acting like a rebellious daughter.

Kelly's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

"Welcome home, Li En."

"Thank you, aunt."

"This is your cousin, Angelina."

Angelina wore a delicate light blue satin dress, and her every move revealed an innate elegance.

Her slender eyebrows were slightly raised with a hint of barely perceptible curiosity.

"Good morning, cousin Li En. I've heard about your deeds a long time ago. Welcome home."

Angelina said softly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

It was the first time she had seen such a handsome young man. Even though the capital was full of talented people, none of them had the unique charm of her cousin.

Li En has the feeling of a teenager who has experienced the vicissitudes of life. This may be a very inappropriate attribute in others, but it is just right for him, making people feel that he has many stories but retains a childlike heart.

In addition, the fact that he is blind adds a sense of tragic epicness, which will make girls involuntarily think of his experience of saving more than 100,000 people from Youssouf.

There is no young girl who does not worship heroes.

Angelina likes this cousin very much.

"Thank you, Cousin Angelina."

Li En said that the entry for this cousin was also normal, she was a noble girl,
"This is your cousin, Diane, and your cousin Parker."

"Hello, brother!"

Both the shy cousin and the lively cousin took the initiative to greet Li En, and Li En responded.

After these blood relatives got to know each other, Grand Duke Moria briefly introduced the waiting retainers, showing his 100% respect for Li En.

You have to know that Li En is now blind. The noble retainers really don’t feel the need to introduce him because Li En can’t see at all.

Perhaps the next time they meet, this blind noble boy will forget them completely, or make a complete mistake.

“Wilfred Robert, patriarch of the Robert family. Hiram Allison, patriarch of the Allison family. Rupert Nick, patriarch of the Nick family…”

After all the characters were introduced, Grand Duke Moria raised his glass.

"Come on, let's celebrate Li En's return to the family."

Everyone raised their glasses as well.

"Let us celebrate the return of Li En/Lord Li En."

The banquet lasted from day to night and evolved into an aristocratic ball.

As the protagonist, Li En naturally cannot be absent.

Even though he was blind, he could not escape the fate of dancing with his cousins ​​and aunt.

He was a little surprised that his brothers and sisters liked him very much.

Needless to say, his cousins ​​were young girls who were just beginning to fall in love. Seeing the handsome boy with his own aura, they naturally couldn't help but get closer to him. Even his cousin Parker liked to stick to him and asked him to tell her about his adventures.

In the eyes of his cousin Parker, Li En is a brave adventurer.

Li En thought he would be involved in a power struggle among the rich and powerful, but he didn't expect his family to be so easy to get along with.

As for those retainers, because they were loyal to Grand Duke Moria, they also showed enough respect to Li En.

"Brother, are you really blind? Why do I always feel like you can see me?"

The naive Parker was only fourteen years old, but his height had reached 2 meters, half a head taller than Li En. This made Li En very suspicious that he was malnourished, as he was only 1 meters tall at the age of 17.

"No, I can't see you."

Lee En said truthfully that although Parker was clingy, fortunately she didn't need to dance with him.

"Brother, I want to hear more about Yusofa. I always feel that the newspaper doesn't describe him in enough detail."

Parker said seriously that he was already a three-star Glory Knight at such a young age, and his future was limitless.

His only shortcoming is that he is too naive, a chatterbox, and lacks the aloofness of an aristocrat.

"Parker, stop disturbing me. Come and dance with me."

said the equally lively Diane.

She and Parker are twins, a boy and a girl, both only 14 years old. Due to genetic reasons, she is now 1 meters tall and is a real long-legged loli.

"Let's continue talking about Yusof."

Rather than dancing, Li En would rather develop a relationship with her younger brother.

Parker stuck out his tongue at Diane smugly.

Grand Duke Moria couldn't help but smile as he watched his grandchildren getting along harmoniously.

Unfortunately, apart from Kelly who has always been reluctant to get married, Angelina is already an adult and will leave the Duke's Mansion after the marriage is agreed upon. Diane and Parker will also be picked up by their parents soon.

Grand Duke Moria really hopes that Li En can stay and stay with him.

Just as Li En was telling the story of Yusofah, Diane and Angelina also gathered around, as well as his aunt Kelly and Kelly's best friends.

After listening to Li En's description, the children admired Li En even more, and the noble girls fell in love with him even more.

Kelly's two best friends couldn't take their eyes off her. They were the daughters of the Moria family's retainers. On the surface, they were Kelly's maids, but in fact, they were both aristocrats and had a relationship like sisters.

And like Kelly, they are all quite passionate and don't mind developing a romantic and non-responsible relationship with Li En.

But Li En obviously doesn't have this intention now.

Annie doesn't like Kelly and her best friends. She can feel that they are lusting after Li En's body.

But as a maid, she could do nothing except stand beside Li En.

You can't just kill them all at night, right? That would affect Li En's family harmony.

"Brother, you are a true hero. I want to be like you. I want to join the army, fight in the Azure Dragon Court, serve my country, and become a great hero."

Parker said excitedly.

He thought that he was a three-star Glory Knight, which was powerful enough.

Grand Duke Moria's expression suddenly turned serious. "Parker, you are not allowed to go. After the Harvest Festival, your father will come to pick you up. You must go to the North."

"I don't want to go to the North. It's full of uncles and aunts. My family will always protect me. I don't need this kind of protection. I won't be able to train myself this way. I want to follow Uncle Hall and fight in the Azure Dragon Court."

Parker had reached a rebellious age and refused to listen to his elders, especially since he noticed that Grand Duke Moria had smiled twice today and concluded that he was in a good mood, so he dared to express his thoughts so directly.

Kelly, Angelina, and Diane were all shocked by what the boy said.

They knew that Parker was usually rebellious, but they didn't expect him to dare to express his true thoughts in such an occasion. He must be itching for trouble.

Or maybe it was Li En's arrival that gave him courage.

"Parker, say it again."

Grand Duke Moria's face turned cold, the music at the ball stopped abruptly, and everyone fell into silence. You could hear a pin drop in the hall.

Parker swallowed and slowly lowered his head, "Grandpa, I was wrong."

The music of the dance party started again, everyone continued dancing and drinking, and the hall became lively again.

Kelly, Angelina, and Diane also breathed a sigh of relief.

In this family, no one dares to disobey Grand Duke Moria.

Li En patted Parker's shoulder and said, "Don't blame Grandpa. Grandpa is doing this for your own good."

"Brother, do you also think I shouldn't go?"

Parker looked at Li En aggrievedly.

Li En nodded. "Yes, it's very dangerous there. You're just a three-star knight, so you'll just be cannon fodder if you go there."

"Ah? But, I, I, I, I am already very powerful, a three-star Glory Knight, obviously very strong."

Parker was not convinced. It was obvious that no one in his family could defeat him. At least among his peers, no one was his opponent. Why couldn't he go to the battlefield to gain experience?
"Parker, do you dare to kill someone?"

Li En suddenly asked.

Parker paused, then nodded heavily, "I dare you!"

Li En shook his head. He knew it was just a lie told by a child who refused to admit defeat.

"Brother, you don't believe me."

"If you want me to believe you, then show me. If you can kill anyone casually and without any psychological burden, then the battlefield is suitable for you. If you can't do it, then listen to Grandpa and don't go. The battlefield is never a good place to train. It only breeds conspirators and murderers. Don't let your pure heart be polluted."

Li En said lightly.

Parker's handsome little face wrinkled up. He looked around. He definitely couldn't kill his aunt, sisters, and younger sisters. He couldn't kill his retainers. The servants were also very kind to him, so they couldn't be killed either. He began to feel conflicted. Finally, he held his head and hit himself hard twice.

He seemed to be awakened by himself, raised his head excitedly and said,

"Brother, can you please not kill people? I heard that the Azure Dragon Court is full of monsters. I'm going to kill monsters."

"How do you know that those monsters are not the same as humans?"

Lee En asked.

"How can monsters be like humans?"

Li En could tell that this kid had actually made up his mind. Even if he agreed with Grand Duke Moria not to go now, he would secretly follow him afterwards. This was a child in his rebellious period.

Thinking of this, he didn't explain to Parker anymore, because children of this age can't listen to reason.

"Let's talk about something else. Brother, do you have a fiancée?"

Diane blinked her bright eyes and asked excitedly.

"If not, can I be your fiancée?"

"No."

Grand Duke Moria and Li En said in unison.

Diane's pretty face darkened instantly.

Kelly and Angelina laughed.

"I'm sorry, cousin Diane, I already have a fiancée, Miss Catherine from Blue Moon Territory, and we've been engaged for some time."

Li En doesn't want to portray himself as a single person. He hopes everyone here knows that he has a family.

"That's a shame."

Diane pouted.

A look of disappointment also flashed in Angelina's eyes.

"No matter who my fiancée is, you will always be my family, and this is more important than anything else."

Li En comforted him.

"Yes, that's true."

Diane perked up again.

Angelina also smiled.

Both sisters seem easy to coax.

"Brother, I want to fight with you."

Parker didn't know what was wrong with him, but he suddenly jumped out again.

He was probably thinking about what Li En had just said about him being a three-star Glory Knight who could only be a cannon fodder, and he felt very dissatisfied.

"If you lose, you have to admit that I, the Three Star Knight, am very powerful."

Parker raised his head proudly. The sisters began to roll their eyes.

"Parker, don't spoil the fun like this. We're still at the dance."

"Who says you can't duel at a ball? Men often challenge ladies to duels at balls."

Parker didn't want to bother with his sister and sisters.

He just wanted to prove himself strong in front of his grandfather and brother.

Li En raised his eyebrows slightly, "If I win, will you give up your plan to go to the Azure Dragon Court?"

"Ah."

Parker was serious this time, "But you can't use the power of your believers." Parker knew that Li En once summoned angels with the power of his believers, and the angel Soraya gave Li En powerful power to force back the evil god, so he was very afraid of the power of Li En's believers.

But he didn't know that Li En was also a six-star blood knight.

"it is good."

Li En nodded slightly. "Then let's just compete in pure swordsmanship. Grandpa, do you agree?"

"This is a matter for you young people, so you can decide for yourselves."

In the eyes of Grand Duke Moria, fighting between brothers will increase their affection, so he does not object to their swordsmanship competition.

Everyone at the dance party stopped their entertainment and followed the young Moria III into the courtyard.

Instead of using Enzo, Lee En used a wooden sword.

Parker was afraid that he would hurt his blind brother, so he also used a wooden sword.

The two men saluted each other, introduced their names and identities, and began to formally compete.

"Parker, remember to use all your strength, otherwise you won't be able to defeat me."

"Brother, please don't let me go. Let me see if I'm really a worthless loser."

The noble retainers who were watching began to talk. They were all optimistic about Parker, who had grown up under their noses since childhood, even though Li En had become very famous recently and was even called the only man who faced the evil god without being contaminated.

But in fact, the men who studied the way of knights have always been skeptical about the martial arts ability of the believers, thinking that those believers are at best some doctors with higher status, who are best at healing and blessing, and cannot be compared with the knights who can truly rival the witches. This is why the church has its own knightly order.

They stubbornly believed that the strongest man in the world was a knight, the strongest woman was a witch, and everything else was everyone else. Even the Pope could not withstand a blow from a legendary knight.

Although this is indeed the case and the knight's destructive power is indeed greater than that of the Pope, it is unlikely that someone who can become a legendary knight will appear for hundreds of years.

Moreover, Parker's swordsmanship teacher is Mr. Conrad Heyrick, the most famous swordsman in the royal capital, who is also a five-star glory knight.

Don’t ask why Grand Duke Moria didn’t teach Parker swordsmanship himself. The reason is that he couldn’t teach his own child and had to hire a tutor.

Moreover, Li En kept emphasizing at the trial that it was not he who defeated the evil god, but the angel who came and gave him the power to defeat the evil god, which greatly weakened his power.

"Parker, don't lose and embarrass us."

"As long as he doesn't summon an angel, he can't defeat you."

The men started to boo.

Although they are all nobles, they are not gentlemen of the royal capital. Many of them were injured in the battles in the north and came back to retire and take care of their children. Therefore, they have some of the flavor of tough northern warriors.

The noble girls also became excited.

"I hope Li En doesn't get hurt."

"Yeah, if Parker dares to hurt my brother, I won't let him go when I get back."

Diane said with a pout.

"It seems like none of you think highly of Li En."

Grand Duke Moria said with great interest.

"Although he is a hero, being a believer and being a knight are two completely different paths."

Old Wilfred, the head of the Robert family, said, "Parker is different. His talent is the best among these children. I don't believe he will lose."

"Old buddy, do you want to make a bet? I bet Parker will win. If he loses, you have to pay for my Ludo wine for a year."

Hiram Allison said to Rupert Nick beside him.

Rupert Nick shook his head, "No, I also think Li En will lose."

"It will win."

Anne said this expressionlessly, attracting the attention of many nobles.

They admired the maid very much. Not only was she unique and wore a fashionable long dress, but she also had no humility of a maid at all.

"Beautiful lady, would you like to bet with me?"

Hiram Allison thought Anne was about the same age as his daughter and said this with great interest.

"it is good."

Annie was not afraid of him and accepted the bet immediately.

"But I don't need Ludo wine. If I win, from now on, you must all acknowledge that I am also a retainer of Li En's family. You can no longer look at me as a servant."

Anne felt that since Grand Duke Moria had so many retainers, Li En also needed his own retainers.

And I am the most suitable candidate.

And in fact, Li En said from the beginning that he would give her freedom. She has always stayed with Li En, once for Anna, and now for some strange ideals.

She was a free person and had the right to choose whether to be a retainer or a servant.

When Anne said this, most of the onlookers laughed.

"Hahaha, what an interesting maid."

"Interesting, Hiram, make a bet with this little girl."

"Okay, I promise you. If you win, I will acknowledge you as Li En's retainer."

Although Grand Duke Moria is a conservative old antique, he doesn't mind that Li En has a lively maid by his side.

To him, this is youth.

If I were 40 years younger, I would be rebellious enough to fall in love with a maid.

But now he has become calmer and his body no longer produces restless hormones.

Parker was different from the others. When he heard what Anne said, his face turned red with anger.

The servants in Alex's castle have always spoiled him and pampered him. No one would be like Anne, who is pessimistic about him.

"My brother may have been very powerful in the past, but now he's blind. There's no way I can lose!"

Parker blushed and looked at Anne deeply. He remembered this beautiful maid.

He wanted to make her regret her decision.

"If you lose, I will contract Uncle Hiram's Ludo wine for you for a year, but I want you to leave my brother and serve me. From now on, you will be my slave."

Li En was slightly surprised.

He originally just wanted to let Parker know his own limitations and not be so rebellious as to go to the battlefield to die, but now, he wanted to teach this little dandy who grew up in happiness a lesson.

Parker stabbed out with the wooden sword in his hand.

Parker raised the corner of his mouth. This move ostensibly attacked the upper body of the target, but in fact the sword would change its path in the middle and directly attack the lower body, causing the opponent to fall.

For the blind Li En, if he fell, he would have no chance of winning.

Parker believed in himself and also believed in his swordsmanship teacher who was known as the best swordsman in the kingdom.

Although the teacher is only a five-star Glory Knight, his swordsmanship is superb, and even a six-star knight may not be able to challenge him successfully.

"Brother, I'm sorry! For the sake of my dignity and my dream, I must defeat you!"

For Parker, he used his fastest speed, and the only sounds in his ears were afterimages and the sound of wind.

For a three-star Glory Knight, this speed is the limit.

But for Li En, the entries were approaching too slowly, too slowly.

He didn't even need to think. When Parker approached, he gently raised his leg and dodged the attack.

After dodging Parker's sword, before Parker could even scream in surprise, he had already pinned Parker down with his backhand, swung the wooden sword, and hit Parker on the butt.

"what--"

Parker screamed.

The power is totally disproportionate, and the speed, skill and attack are also disproportionate.

Everyone originally thought they would see an exciting sword fight, but in fact they only saw Li En beating a child.

Parker lost all his face this time. He was beaten and burst into tears in front of all the noble retainers.

The onlookers were stunned and couldn't believe what they saw.

"It's so, so, so embarrassing. Parker, don't tell me I know you."

Wilfred Robert and the others dispersed, while Hiram Allison looked at Anne seriously, "If I lose, I will acknowledge your status as a retainer, my lady."

"Ah."

Anne said lightly that all this was within her expectations.

Parker couldn't even beat a four-star assassin like himself, so how could he possibly defeat Lee En who always had a hidden card?
"Do you know you're wrong?"

Lee En asked as he spanked Parker.

"Brother, I was wrong. I know I was wrong."

Parker's eyes turned red from crying and he said aggrievedly.

This was the first time he had ever suffered such humiliation since he was a child. "But with so many people here, can you please give me some face? Wuwuwu."

"Well, tell me, where did you go wrong?"

"I, I, I shouldn't have thought about going to the Azure Dragon Court. I'm too weak."

"anything else?"

"I do not know."

"You shouldn't bet with a lady. Don't do such childish things again, you immature child."

Li En threw away the wooden sword and let Parker go.

Parker covered his butt in grievance, realizing for the first time how weak he was.

But he did not bear a grudge against his brother Lee En Moriah. He felt that he was taught a lesson with good reason.

The servants immediately gathered around and surrounded Master Parker, asking him about his well-being.

Parker was taken away and temporarily left the dance.

Grand Duke Moria also announced that the banquet would continue.

So everyone continued dancing, eating and drinking.

But Li En was more popular. This time, he was surrounded not by girls but by the retainers of the Moria family.

They truly accepted Li En, a descendant of the Moria family who was disguised as a theological believer but was better at fighting than a knight.

After three rounds of drinks, Li En had become one of the best friends among the northern warriors. Listening to them happily telling about their adventures in the North, Li En couldn't help but feel envious and thought that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely go to the North to have a look.

Grand Duke Moria was very satisfied with Li En's adaptability.

I didn't expect that he could get along well with his stubborn old ministers in such a short time.

The dance ended in a lively atmosphere.

Late at night, Grand Duke Moria took Li En to his study and personally explained to him the heavy history of the Moria family.

There are countless medals on display in the study, and photos of successive heads of the Moria family hang on the walls.

Each of them is a very handsome golden-haired man, but unfortunately Li En can't see, so he can only listen to Grand Duke Moria describe their glorious life.

"This is your great-grandfather, Damian Moriah. He was a valiant warrior who fought in 1548 battles, both large and small, in the North, bearing 791 wounds. He received three First Class Medals of Honor, one Lifetime Medal of Honor, and 31 other medals from the royal family. He was known as the North's greatest warrior and died in the Battle of Ignatz. He was also the first Duke of the Moriah family..."

"This is your great-great-grandfather, Randolph Moriah. He was a prime minister. Like me, he always stayed by the emperor's side, assisting him. He received 22 medals of honor and promulgated 32 laws in his lifetime. He was hailed as the most knowledgeable prime minister..."

"This is your great-great-great-grandfather, Moritz Moria. He was the first earl of the Moria family. He also lived an extremely glorious life..."

"This is your great-great-great-great-grandfather, Silas Moriah. He was the Lord of the Rhine Territory, one of the first ministers to follow the Holy Empire Emperor, and the founder of the Creed Family. It was he and the other six major families who founded the current Creed Family. It was also he who assisted the first Emperor of the Holy Empire to ascend the throne. At that time, he was just a marquis..."

"Compared to the previous family heads, I have achieved almost nothing."

Grand Duke Moria sighed and said.

"I don't think any of them could have come as far as you have on the path of chivalry."

Li En comforted him.

Grand Duke Moria was slightly stunned, "How do you know?"

“God has given me special talents.”

Li En could only say this to avoid arousing the suspicion of Grand Duke Moria.

If anything happens, just push it to Tiger. If Tiger refuses to take the blame, Soraya can take it.

"What talent?"

“If I see someone who is exceptionally good, I can sense it from their aura.”

Li En said.

"Such a talent, can you see where my chivalry has gone?"

Grand Duke Moria asked happily.

Li En brought him too many surprises.

"If I'm not mistaken, you have at least entered the rank of Six-Star Glory Knight. You are a truly powerful warrior."

"Haha, my child, you are half right."

Grand Duke Moria is already a Seven-Star Order Knight, but he never reveals this fact to others. He is not as high-profile as Earl Hall, who wanted everyone in the world to know after being promoted to a Seven-Star Order Knight.

"Are you already a Seven Star?"

Li En pretended to be very surprised.

Grand Duke Moria nodded slightly. This was the first time he admitted his true rank in front of others.

It's also because Li En, his grandson, is so outstanding.

“You are truly amazing.”

Li En immediately offered a wave of praise, "This achievement is enough to make our great-grandfathers proud."

"I believe that the future of the Moria family will be better than mine."

Grand Duke Moria actually didn't believe it, but now that he saw Li En, he said this.

“I may never reach the glory of my ancestors.”

Li En said modestly that the main reason was that he did not want to become the head of the Moria family. Such a large family business, although it looked enviable, would actually cause many problems.

Compared to shouldering the mission of the Creed Family, Li En would rather leisurely develop the economy in the Green Shade Territory.

Grand Duke Moria did not intend to make Li En the heir immediately. He just wanted to increase Li En's sense of family honor first and then take it step by step.

You have to know that Li En is Jack's son. Jack was an illegitimate child who was kicked out of the family tree, and Li En is the illegitimate son of an illegitimate son. The operation is still very difficult.

Moriah's plan was to let Li En study with him for two or three years, then go to the North for training for a few years, and then adopt him under the name of his eldest son Howard Moriah, so that Li En would have a legal identity.

As for Li En's biological father Jack, he can do whatever he wants, old Moriah doesn't care about that rebellious illegitimate son.

"Don't underestimate yourself. You are a Silver Follower at such a young age, and you have also mastered the Way of the Knight. You are unique in this world. If you are willing to work hard, your achievements will definitely surpass those of your peers and live up to the glory of your ancestors."

Moria encouraged.

"Thank you, grandpa."

When Li En asked Moria to save him, he showed his excellent talent, so there is no point in being humble now. It is better to accept it calmly.

For superiors like Grand Duke Moria and Augulas, only when they see enough value in themselves will they be willing to invest, and emotions will be put second.

"Grandpa, will His Majesty the King really agree to my return to the family? If I do return to the family, can I still marry Catherine smoothly?"

Li En remembered what old Jack said. The king actually did not agree with the marriage between the Moria family and the Jackson family. This was the real reason why he refused to marry Megawati Jackson at that time.

"You have returned to the Moriah family, and the king has no right to interfere. As for your engagement, I know what you're worried about. Perhaps your father told you something. He thought his sacrifice was for the family. How ridiculous! He thought he could predict the future just because he had the Eye of the Future. Your engagement with Catherine will be fine. In fact, as long as you don't marry Dorothy, the king won't care."

"Auguslas is so confident?"

Li En subconsciously called out August's name.

Grand Duke Moria was stunned for a moment. Since there were only him and Li En in the study, he did not care about Li En's violation of the rules and explained,
"Augusla not only possesses a Sequence 1, but also the full support of the Hall family. Even if Dorothy doesn't marry Augusla, her cousin Tracy will. Of course, our Moria family has always been loyal to the royal family."

“But the Hall family also has a close relationship with the Pope.”

Li En raised his doubts.

"This is precisely the king's brilliance. He has always tacitly acknowledged the relationship between Hall and the Pope. Hall is Randall's weak spot, and the king holds it in his hands. If Dorothy marries the king, his majesty will be even more confident. He now sees you as a candidate for the next Pope. You need to demonstrate your worth instead of hastily fleeing back to Greenshade Territory."

"Actually, the Green Shade Territory isn't as terrible as you think. There's a Hell Gate in the Bone Forest, which is the entrance to an infinite treasure."

Li En also told Grand Duke Moria the secret information he had, "If the Moria family can control that place, we won't have to be constrained any longer. Grandpa, whatever you want, you can get it."

Grand Duke Moria's eyes lit up slightly. He patted Li En's shoulder and said meaningfully,

"Do you know why I won't pay your debt?"

"why?"

"Because we have discovered the entrance to the Old and New Worlds in the North, exploring there requires a huge investment, and we are already exploring. If we can recover the lost civilization and treasures of the Old World, our Moria family will go down in history."

At the level of Grand Duke Moria, power, status, and wealth are no longer important to him. What he values ​​is an indelible name. Leaving a strong mark in history, even being remembered forever by the world.
