Knight's Infinite Journey

Chapter 219 Marvin Nock

Looking at his daughter's appearance, Carlo wanted to reprimand him, but in the end he could only sigh and said, "Come here."

Dana then breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward with a smile.

"Sorry for making you laugh."

Seeing his daughter sitting at the dining table eating, Carlo smiled, mocking himself: "As you can see, my situation here is a bit bad."

"What happened before?"

Yadimu looked around and asked, "Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this."

Previously, my predecessor received news that my predecessor’s father passed away half a year ago.

Considering the distance between the two places and the time spent going back and forth, this incident may have been a year or two ago.

But even so, Carlo's situation shouldn't be so bad.

After all, he is different from Yadimu.

Carlo is the most capable of his brothers, and he had the best relationship with him in the past.

Their father screamed that Carlo should inherit the title of Baron Nok and become the patriarch of the family.

But judging from the results, it seems that is not the case at all.

This is interesting.

Needless to say, there must be many other changes involved.

Yatimu looked around, looking at Carlo's appearance in front of him, and didn't say anything, just waiting quietly for Carlo to speak.

Carlo sighed and began to speak slowly.

Simply put, this is a simple power grab.

The predecessor was Carlo's father, the old Baron Knock. Not only did he have many children, he also had several younger brothers.

What happened this time was caused by one of the younger brothers.

After the death of the old Baron Knock, his younger brother suddenly came back and used a series of means to seize the title of Baron Knock and became the new Baron Knock.

It was originally a difficult task to seize the title that originally belonged to someone else's child, but he did it forcefully.

In addition to the sudden death of old Baron Knock and no preparation, other factors were also very complicated.

"He spent a lot of money to bribe Count Tann's assistants."

Carlo smiled bitterly and probably mentioned this.

Yadimu understood immediately.

Earl Tann is the governor of this area. In theory, the inheritance of local nobles such as Baron Knock is arranged by top nobles such as Earl Tann.

Therefore, if someone can make Earl Tann's intention change and become slightly more inclined, it will naturally have an impact.

"In order to bribe Earl Tann's assistants, he spent a lot of money and did not hesitate to borrow money from many businessmen."

Carlo said: "This was money that he could not afford to pay back, so after he became a baron, he sold off many of his family's properties to plug his hole."

This is why the Nok family has become what it is.

As for the situation of Carlo and others, there is no need to say more.

In the past, when old Baron Knock was here, their treatment was naturally the best.

But now that the younger brother of the old Baron Knock has taken over, how can they still live well?

Yadimu had no doubt that if it weren't for the inconvenience, the current Baron Knock would probably want to kill Carlo and others directly.

He shook his head, and then continued: "Where is Sister Hani?"

"She is already married, but I heard her situation is not very good."

Carlo thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"Is it."

Yadimu nodded, but there was not so much emotion in his brows.

Honey is the elder sister of the predecessor, and one of the few among the many children of the old Baron Knock who has a fairly good relationship with the predecessor.

Of course, that's just on the surface.

According to Carlo, Honey had already married a few years before the old Baron Knock died.

Her husband is a wealthy local businessman, but it is said that he is not very good to her.

This became even more obvious after the death of old Baron Knock.

Carlo sighed as he spoke, observing Yatimu's reaction.

Born in such a noble family, he was naturally not a fool. However, the opponent's advantage was so great that he had no power to resist.

Originally, he had already planned to accept his fate and stop thinking about messy things.

But now, Yadimu's arrival has rekindled some hope in his heart.

No matter what, Yadimu is his brother, and he is also a mysterious and powerful wizard. He will definitely help him, right?

After all, the relationship between them was the best at the beginning.

boom! boom!

When various thoughts flashed through Carlo's mind, there was a dull knocking sound outside.

A terrifying sound came out.

Yadimu turned around and looked in the direction of the door.

It had been forcibly opened at this moment.

Yadimu couldn't help but frown.

Two figures came out.

"Are you the outsider who calls himself Mr. Roland?"

The leader of the two men was a sturdy middle-aged man, wearing leather armor and a stern expression on his face. At first glance, he was no ordinary guy.

He looked at Yadimu: "Mr. Marvin, please come over."

"Roland."

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Carlo couldn't help but shudder, and subconsciously looked at Yadimu beside him.

The fear of this man was evident in his behavior.

Atimu looked at Carlo, looking at his subconscious reaction. He was silent for a moment, and then stood up: "Lead the way."

"Aren't you going to take me to see Mr. Marvin?"

He looked at the person in front of him: "I'll just go with you."

"Roland."

Looking at Yadimu, Carlo couldn't help but say: "Be careful."

"Yes, I know."

Yadimu nodded, waved his hand nonchalantly, and then walked forward.

"My brother's child has returned."

In the spacious hall, Baron Marvin looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help but ask: "Ms. Cora, are you confident to handle it?"

Standing in front of Baron Marvin was a middle-aged woman.

The woman was wearing a long red robe, and her overall appearance seemed a bit conservative and mysterious, but she was already quite old in appearance.

She stood in front of Baron Marvin and smiled at him: "He is just a second-class apprentice. He probably can't even master a serious spell. He is not a threat at all."

"I don't know how many Bai Mage I have killed who came from this academy."

She stood there, looking confident.

Seeing her reaction, Baron Marvin felt a little relieved.

The middle-aged woman in front of him is also a mage, and a third-class mage apprentice.

As a member of the Nok family, Baron Marvin had already considered the hidden danger of Artimu when he was seizing the title.

So before, when he sold the Nok family property, he deliberately left a large amount of money behind.

This money is either used for other purposes or to deal with Roland Nok, the second-class mage apprentice.

For Marvin, only by dealing with this nephew can he truly seize everything that belongs to his brother.

Otherwise, he might not feel at ease even if he dies.

God knows when the other party will come back, kill all his children, and take away the title of the Nok family again.

And now, this money is spent like this.

"Are you sure he is a second-class apprentice?"

Looking at Baron Marvin in front of her, Cora asked.

"I'm sure."

Baron Marvin smiled: "In the entire Knock family, I have all the letters that have been exchanged with him in the past. I can easily tell."

"Otherwise, how could I possibly know that he came back at this time?"

Baron Marvin had long known that Artimu would come back at this time.

Because after he took charge of the entire family, he mastered the communication method between the Nok family and Yadimu's predecessor, so that he knew all the letters sent by the predecessor.

Even Carlo didn't know the news.

It was precisely because of knowing this news that Baron Marvin knew that Artimu would come back during this time period, and was able to respond in time, deliberately hiring a third-class apprentice to come and take charge.

The purpose is to solve Yadimu at once and eliminate all hidden dangers.

"Besides, if he is really a third-class apprentice, why would he come back?"

Baron Marvin said again, sneering: "If he is really a third-class apprentice, he doesn't even need to snatch the title of baron, and he can become a noble himself."

The status of a mage is very high. If a third-class apprentice is willing, he can easily obtain the title of baron.

Cora thought for a moment and felt that it was indeed the case.

However, out of professional habit, she still reminded her: "I must remind you that what you gave me is only enough for me to make one move. If the opponent's strength exceeds the range of the information you provided, then I will leave immediately."

"What you gave me is not enough to offend a mage of the same level."

"I said this, do you understand?"

"understand."

Baron Marvin accompanied him with a smile: "I know all the rules."

"If it doesn't work out, you can just leave."

"Um."

Cora looked cold and nodded lightly.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Yadimu's figure appeared at the end of their sight.

"Is this your nephew?"

Cora looked at Yadimu in front of her and couldn't help but nodded: "It looks pretty good."

"I just don't know how strong it is."

Baron Marvin did not speak, but a smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Are you Marvin Nock?"

A voice came from the front.

Yadimu walked to the front and looked at Marvin in front of him.

Nominally speaking, Marvin should be his uncle.

But unfortunately, the predecessor was not in this area for a long time. Except for Carlo and a few other people, he didn't even know some of his brothers, let alone his uncle Marvin.

Including the memory of his predecessor, this was the first time he saw this uncle.

"Yes, it's me."

Marvin nodded and was about to say something.

"Okay, that's right."

Along with a burst of sound, the terrifying mana began to vibrate.
