My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

"Eileen, how dare you speak to a guest like that? Apologize immediately!" Abel's face darkened as he reprimanded her.

Eileen's pretty, fair face was filled with disbelief: "Daddy, what are you saying? You want me to apologize to a lowly commoner?!"

Snapped!

"Shut up! Is this how your etiquette teacher taught you? Apologize to the guests right now!" President Abel slammed his hand on the table, his face as dark as the torrential rain outside.

Chapter 495 The Hulk

—A few minutes ago.

While Kouta was still comfortably taking a bath.

After healing his injuries with an expensive magical potion, President Abel knocked on his daughter Erin's door.

Eileen had just finished showering, her light brown wavy hair still wet and cascading down her back. She was wearing a simple pink nightgown, her graceful figure partially visible.

The nightgown wasn't modern or fancy; it was just a loose-fitting dress. But in this era, pink itself represented luxury.

Two maids behind her were drying her hair with towels.

President Abel waved for the two maids to leave.

After the maid left, Eileen looked at her father and asked, "Father, is there something you need?"

President Abel asked gently, "My dear daughter, what do you think of that boy from before?"

“Him? He’s just a lowly commoner. Why is Father asking this?” Eileen’s tone was as if she were talking about something disgusting.

“I hope you will marry him,” Abel said earnestly.

moment.

Eileen bristled like a kitten whose tail had been grabbed, her voice filled with disbelief and a distorted, shrill tone:

"Father, are you really my father? How could you force me to marry a lowly commoner?!"

"Let me finish," President Abel comforted his daughter to calm her down, then said in a deep voice, "That boy, he is a Divine Blood Awakener!"

"Wh-what!??" Eileen was so shocked by her father's words that she was so stunned that she didn't even notice the exquisite wooden comb falling to the ground from her hand.

The previous look of disgust and disdain was no longer visible on her delicate, oval face, which resembled that of an Aryan.

"Father, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true, I saw it with my own eyes..."

Then, President Abel told his daughter about the battle that had taken place in the church.

After hearing this, Eileen was speechless: "He's actually a Divine Blood Awakener, and with a powerful defensive talent at that!"

She knew what it meant to be a Divine Blood Awakener.

Since the beginning of records of those who have awakened divine blood, every one of them has been a chosen one destined to become a great knight.

Great Knight!

Those were the true upper echelons of the kingdom, possessing not only twenty times the strength and speed of ordinary people, but more importantly, their lifespan soared to two hundred years, living an extra lifetime compared to ordinary people—they were practically another species.

If knights are merely lower-ranking officers at the bottom of the kingdom's power structure, then grand knights are those who can truly enter the kingdom's decision-making level.

Every Grand Knight is granted the title of Viscount, which is not the fake title of honorary baron that knights hold, but a true noble title that can be inherited and has a fief.

Eileen knew that the powerful figure behind their Loran Merchant Guild was a Grand Knight.

However, becoming a Grand Knight is extremely difficult. It requires decades of consistent effort and the enormous expenses involved are enough to deter over 90% of knights. Even after accumulating the necessary resources, success is not guaranteed.

Most knights have already exhausted all their potential by simply breaking through the limits of human endurance to become knights, and as for great knights, that's something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Throughout recorded history, every single person who has awakened divine blood has become a Grand Knight.

However, it seems that those who awaken to divine blood are both made and broken by their bloodline. They can only reach the rank of Grand Knight, and no one has ever reached the rank of Earth Knight.

But the Earth Knight level was something I could only dream about; Eileen couldn't even muster the slightest expectation for it.

Therefore,

Upon learning that the beggar she had looked down upon was actually a divine blood awakener, Eileen was overwhelmed with mixed feelings—a mixture of astonishment and a hint of reverie…

The reason she was willing to sleep with Roy was because Roy Frederick was born into a noble family of great knights and had already reached the pinnacle of knighthood; he might even break through to become a great knight.

Moreover, she heard that other seductive and slutty women had their eyes on Roy, so she gave herself to him half-heartedly.

Eileen hated that she was born into a humble merchant family, which made her feel ashamed and relegated to the background at every banquet.

Her dream wasn't grand; she simply wanted to marry a great knight, leap across social classes, and become a true noblewoman.

But now, a brighter path lies before her.

After awakening, those with divine blood can become great knights in just a few years.

Compared to Kouta, Roy Frederick suddenly seemed less appealing to her.

"My dear daughter, what do you think?" President Abel noticed the shyness on his beautiful daughter's face and knew that she was already smitten.

“Father, I… of course I’m willing.” Eileen’s face was flushed.

"Okay, then you should stay away from that Roy Frederick from now on."

Upon hearing the name Roy Frederick, Eileen's expression suddenly changed, as if she had remembered something important.

"Father, I, I~" Eileen's voice was soft and sweet, like a child who had done something wrong.

Abel suddenly had a bad feeling: "What's wrong?"

Eileen gritted her teeth and said, "I... I haven't had my period for two months, I might be pregnant..."

Eileen's words came to an abrupt halt. Abel paused for two seconds before reacting.

"Who is it? Is it Roy Frederick?"

Eileen nodded with difficulty.

He pointed at his daughter, his face pale and his whole body trembling, as if all his strength had been drained: "You, you're so foolish! Do you know that doing this will ruin your reputation?"

Eileen retorted, "How is this ruining my reputation? Don't all the noblewomen of earls and marquises have affairs after marriage? It's an open secret that everyone knows. What's wrong with what I'm doing?"

"Foolish! You know they are married!"

You know they are counts and marquises!

You're just the daughter of a small-time businessman, what gives you the right to do this?

Do you know that nobles are a group of shrewd people? They might be able to accept a woman being overly open in that area.

but,

The one thing I absolutely cannot accept is a woman being stupid!

If you give your body away without even getting engaged, what are people supposed to think?

They'll just think you're either so stupid that you'd be fooled by sweet talk, or you have absolutely no self-control.

Regardless of the reason, they would never marry such a burden and create a future problem for their family!

No matter how beautiful or gorgeous you are, they will still have a romantic relationship with you, rather than marry you.

This way, I can enjoy your beauty without taking any responsibility, and it'll be much easier to dump you when I get tired of you.

After President Abel finished explaining, Eileen's face turned pale. She had never imagined the consequences would be so dire, and in an instant, she felt as if all her strength had been drained away.

“No, no, Miss Dinah Elaine didn’t tell me that!” Eileen seemed to grasp at the last glimmer of hope. “Miss Dinah said that it was no big deal, and that the sooner you do it, the sooner you can enjoy it.”

"Dina Elaine, the woman whose affair with the guard was so scandalous that it spread throughout the kingdom."

Of course she would say that. She herself was ruined, with no one willing to marry her, leaving her no choice but to marry down. Naturally, she hoped more people would be ruined like her.

Eileen still couldn't accept reality: "No, it can't be. Miss Diana is so elegant and has such a noble air about her, how could she possibly do such a thing?"

Abel laughed at his daughter's foolishness: "Elegant manners? Noble demeanor? Even a pig, dressed in fine clothes and fed with dozens of servants attending to its every need, would become elegant and noble if it lived like that for more than ten years. Do you think Dinah Elaine is even less than a pig? Huh?"

I spent a lot of money to bring you into the kingdom's upper-class aristocratic circles, hoping that you could see through the glamorous surface and see the naked exchange of interests behind the upper class, and understand the inner workings of the upper class.

But I never expected that you would actually take that glamorous image seriously?

And all that talk about nobles and commoners, always using the term "lowly people." Haven't you ever thought about why lowly people are lowly people?

Without hesitation, Eileen replied, "Untouchables are untouchables by nature. They are lowly, filthy, lazy, ignorant, and short-sighted."

Chairman Abel was stunned when he heard this. He had thought his daughter might be a little stupid, but he never expected her to be so stupid as to be beyond redemption.

"You really think so?"

Eileen looked at her father with a puzzled expression: "Of course, isn't it obvious?"

Abel shook his head, offering no explanation.

My daughter is so stupid that she can't even see through the rhetoric used by the upper class to cover up the exploitative nature between classes, and she actually believed it. What is there for him to explain?

Alas, what a misfortune for our family.

“Father, Roy and I have only been together a few times, and we’ve kept it a secret. No one should know,” Eileen asked unwillingly.

"It's no use. The noble circle of the Kingdom of Altona is only so big. What you did must have already spread in secret."

"No wonder. I was wondering why the Aubrey, Jonas, and Leopold families, who were all interested in marrying you, never brought it up again. So that's why."

President Abel knew that his daughter's reputation in aristocratic circles was ruined, and no family would marry a landmine.

"Father, what should we do?" Eileen's face changed repeatedly, her heart filled with regret. "That's it, I'll abort the child now and then marry that boy. He's a lowly, no, a commoner, he definitely won't mind."

Abel nodded: "That's all we can do now. By the way, who else knows about your pregnancy?"

Eileen shook her head: "I didn't tell anyone."

How far along are you in the pregnancy?

"Last month, plus the time of my period this month, it's about a month and a half."

"Then, perhaps we don't need to abort this child. We can do this..."

Then Abel began to explain his plans.

After hearing this, Eileen asked, "Oh, will that work? Won't we be discovered?"
