Chapter 111
I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 111
#After returning, the family was ruined (112)
Rumors about the eldest daughter, Sera, had been heating up the kingdom recently.
Turian Marquis.
He too was clearly listening to the rumors spreading throughout the kingdom.
‘Amazing.’
Eldest daughter Lee Sera.
He knew his daughter’s temperament best.
It was that child who was praised as the most beautiful woman in the kingdom and who lived her whole life like a noble crane.
Additionally, Lee Sera was the one who did not treat anyone weaker than her as a man. Didn’t he always avoid me, treating me like a parasitic brother even if I just turned a mile?
What does it mean that such a daughter is desperately courting the duke?
‘I was overpowered.’
It was no different from the duke subduing his eldest daughter by force. That meant he had powers close to superhumans.
‘…oh my god.’
I knew he was strong.
However, the Marquis did not know that he would be able to completely subdue his daughter who had reached the level of a superhuman.
A person with talent beyond imagination.
The Marquis’s heart also had no choice but to lean towards Duke Ethan.
‘…That’s a good thing.’
Seeing how he completely subdued my daughter, who was like a wild colt, made me wonder if there was another match made in heaven like this.
It was then.
“Your Excellency the Marquis. “Can I come in?”
“Please come in.”
The head deacon came into the office and handed over a letter.
“This is a letter from the princess.”
“huh? The kid sent the letter? Please give it to me quickly.”
The Marquis immediately opened the letter and looked at its contents.
Immediately, he opened his mouth.
I think I’m in love. I will do as my father said and do my best.
The Marquis’ eyes softened after seeing the content of the text.
Eldest daughter Lee Sera.
From his amazing talent, cute appearance, and wayward behavior. The Marquis was a father who loved everything about his daughter.
‘I finally found my partner.’
I was wondering who to send my daughter to, as I couldn’t even afford the mileage.
If it were a duke, it was a great choice.
I only feel sad for a moment.
The turian who received his daughter’s letter immediately made up his mind.
‘I have to shake up the 7th family for my son-in-law.’
Kingdom 7th Street.
The current atmosphere among the seven, no, six families was close to being hostile toward the son-in-law. That was clear just by looking at the attempt to push him out using Theron, the Three Dukes.
‘To protect my son-in-law.’
Instead of causing a stir in the 7th family and forcing his son-in-law to step down, he should have made them aware that there was a better option.
‘It’s impossible for me to do alone.’
Although he was one of the famous seven families, he was the only one with so much power among the members of the three dukes and four marquises.
‘I need someone to cooperate. That’s not even possible at the marquis level. It will lack weight.’
At least one operative family would have to cooperate further to shake up the 7 families.
Which family should I choose?
The turian thought of the members of the Seventh House. The first thing that came to mind were the three dukes.
They weren’t dukes for nothing.
They are all people who have inherited the Kang Ryong style, and their power is so powerful that it cannot be compared to that of the Marquis.
‘The Duke of Agiles is excluded.’
The Agiles family, which deals with black magic, was the family that directly brainwashed Theron. He and his son-in-law were literally from the same family as Marshal Cheolcheon.
‘Even the Lacian duchy is impossible.’
This was the family that included Duke Gerond and Prince Mileton, and they were also one of the families that actively corrupted the Three Dukes.
“…There is only one choice.”
Duke Dustin.
It was a family known as a famous martial arts family, and as expected of those who used their fists, they were a family that was characterized by being manly and thuggish.
The plan to brainwash Theron?
People who were so macho that they felt like barbarians could not have agreed to such a plan.
‘The Duke.’
He was the one who repeatedly voted against the plan regarding Theron.
It seemed like he could be persuaded.
Plus the Duke.
Among the seven heads of the family, he was the only one other than himself to have a daughter.
The consensus also fits perfectly.
‘We don’t have much time.’
I sent a message to Duke Gerond through the crystal sphere, so a meeting of the 7 families would be convened soon.
Before that, I had to convince the Duke.
‘let’s go.’
The decision was instantaneous.
The Turian disappeared from the office, leaving a brief note.
Three days later.
I was able to come face to face with the Duke who was training in the mountains.
* * *
The Duke, who was sitting cross-legged with his shirt off, widened his eyes.
“Turian? “Is that you?”
“See you, Duke.”
“What happened to the news about my daughter? “Did you really send that child to the duke?”
“…yes. “It happened that way.”
“Huh… There’s no way you don’t know the overall atmosphere of the 7th House… Even if it were me, the two dukes would never stay still. “What on earth did you do that for?”
Duke’s question was filled with concern. Not only do the two nobles belong to the same faction, the moderate faction, in the 7th family.
This is because among the seven families, they are the only ones raising daughters and have had consistent exchanges since the past.
Moreover, there was another thing in common.
It was true that both were fathers who loved their daughters dearly.
“That’s exactly why I came here.”
“haha. Do you think I will abandon my colleagues? Don’t worry. “You won’t be stigmatized as a traitor.”
“Duke.”
“huh?”
“I saw great potential in my son-in-law.”
“son-in-law? “Has that kind of relationship already developed between that Isera child and Duke Ethan?”
“I think it’s a fait accompli. “Is there any other man in the world who can control a child like that?”
“Hehe… That’s right.”
“That’s why I want to protect my son-in-law for my daughter. Please help. “Duke.”
Duke looked at the turian.
If it’s to the point of asking you to come to him in person.
“I guess what you want is not simply to protect the duke.”
“you’re right. “I want to turn the tide itself.”
“…are you trying to change the atmosphere of 7th Street?”
“you’re right.”
Duke, who was pondering, said.
“You are my colleague, so I think it is only natural that I protect you. However, the requests after that are in a completely different area. “You know that much, right?”
“…yes. I know.”
It’s either simply protecting oneself or changing the mood of the entire group.
The latter was bound to be much more difficult. Duke said with a smile on his face at the Turian’s words.
“Have I committed a sin? “Open your face.”
“I know I’m asking a difficult favor. “Your Excellency the Duke.”
“There’s a saying that goes down in the Dustin family. “Don’t worry and just do what you want.”
While the Marquis was silent, the Duke continued speaking.
“And my heart goes out to help you. However, it is true that I am worried.”
“…are you worried?”
“Didn’t the Marquis make an important decision? Is he really worth it? “I was curious about that.”
The Duke jumped up from his seat.
“You can’t evaluate a person simply by listening to their words.”
Duke.
He was a man who believed only in what he saw with his own eyes.
“So I’m going to go and check on him myself.”
Before the Marquis could reply, his new brother disappeared.
‘…I guess I’ll have to send Jeon Seo-gu by express.’
Duke of Ardan.
The news that the Transcendant was heading there had to be delivered as quickly as possible. Wouldn’t that allow us to prepare in our own way?
Soon, the Marquis’ new model also became blurred.
* * *
The Duke’s grand banquet hall.
Sylvia approached Ethan, who was training there.
“Duke. “The Turian Marquis has sent a letter.”
“Correspondence?”
He looked at the contents and laughed.
Don’t you want to make a strong ally besides me among the 7 families?
So, I met the Duke in person and persuaded him. As soon as I said that, I started running, so I will reach the duchy sooner or later.
My route is clearly set. So now it’s the duke’s turn to prove himself.
Oh. Isera is a good girl.
Then, do your best. son-in-law.
Sylvia looked at Ethan and tilted her head as if she was curious.
“They say a man who is very good with his fists is planning to visit.”
“…yes?”
“this. “I think it’s already here.”
From far away, a person with incredible power was running towards the inner castle.
“Let’s go back.”
“…All right.”
Before Sylvia even left the training ground.
Coo!
With a heavy pounding sound, a giant landed between the main stage.
The man, who appeared to be close to 2 meters tall, was filled with muscles that made it seem like he was going to explode just by looking at him.
“Are you the duke of the rumor?”
“You’ve come to the right place. “I was wondering what would happen if I got lost.”
The age difference alone was almost one generation. But would you ever think that you would speak informally to the public?
The embarrassment only lasts for a moment.
Duke grinned.
“Hahaha! Just as I heard, it’s really interesting! But do you happen to know who I am?”
“The nobleman who met you first kindly sent a letter to let you know.”
“this. Were you close friends? “The Marquis didn’t give me my daughter for nothing.”
“Not that close.”
It wasn’t a look in his eyes that told a lie.
Duke nodded and spoke immediately.
“Would you like to spar with me?”
“The reason is?”
“The Turian Marquis told an interesting story. So I got curious. “How far will your potential reach?”
“It’s the duke’s turn to prove himself.”
That was the moment when I clearly realized what that meant.
“Of course. What is the format?”
The Duke looked at the Duke and his eyes lit up. Does the Duke in front of him have enough potential for the Turian to bow his head and ask for him?
To check it out properly.
“Why not try sparring without using mana?”
Ethan smiled quietly.
I thought I knew why Duke was proposing such a format.
Experiences, response methods, and even basic skills that are latent in the human body. To check all of this in depth, the most efficient way was to fight bare-handed without mana.
Duke was currently curious about himself.
It’s not enough to turn simple curiosity into anticipation, but to increase it explosively.
‘Start small. ‘Finish big.’
The best way was to show and prove things gradually.
Something that can be shown in small ways.
That’s right.
“Then it became black. “I’ll use my fists like you do.”
Duke frowned at those words.
“If you’re worried about getting cut, you don’t have to be. Because the body of the transcendental is truly solid.”
“Don’t you want to check everything about me?”
“….”
“There is nothing better to check a person’s potential than bare-handed fighting.”
Ardan was a family that was famous for its swordsmanship but also its martial arts skills.
While rolling on the battlefield for 13 years.
Although it was not as much time as the sword, it was martial arts that was used for a significant amount of time.
“…Are you really saying this because you know how to throw a punch?”
Even young people are not obnoxious if they exercise their spirit in moderation. That was the moment when Duke asked back with a frown on his face.
“Isn’t this how you do it?”
Ethan ran out with his eight rings freed and stretched out his fist. It was a fist with no mana at all.
But for that punch.
‘…!’
It contained a mysterious trick that I had not expected. The duke, with wide eyes, quickly lowered his head.
