Legendary Hero

In Elu's story, he is the heir of the Esgard family and the future Lord of Lionheart City.

He had three older brothers who were killed in clashes with surrounding cities, so he is now the eldest son.

His father is over 50 years old this year. Because he fought for many years when he was young, his body was covered with injuries, so now he is bedridden all the year round, and he doesn't know when he will die. He has a stepmother in her thirties, who is the daughter of the president of a chamber of commerce in Lionheart City. She has a son and a daughter with her father. The son is ten years old this year.

As for himself, his body is weak, although he has been practicing the family's force martial arts, he has hardly made any progress. He was so despised in the family that even his father thought of letting his half-brother inherit the position of city lord.

His only support is his deceased mother's family. His maternal grandfather was the most capable and prestigious general in Lionheart City. He was quite dependent on his father. Two of his uncles also held important positions in the Lionheart City army. .

It is precisely for this reason that although the status of the young master of Elu is in jeopardy, it has been maintained.

But this situation cannot last long. This time, the reason why he went to the Wuyue Continent was because the family's merchant fleet had some problems in the Wuyue Continent, and there had to be enough people to deal with it. Another reason was that His maternal grandfather is also old, in his seventies, and suffered a recurrence of an injury the year before. He vomited blood while riding a horse, and had to resign from his job to recuperate.

Without the support of his grandfather, he, the young master, was forced to go to Wuyue Continent by the power of his stepmother.

This trip, he originally brought a full guard group with more than 30 powerful warriors, but encountered a sneak attack by robbers in the Wuyue Continent, and almost wiped out the entire army. Only Juta took him to escape the siege .

In the cabin in the early morning, the aristocratic teenager Eru, who was already a little drunk, chattered about his past without reservation. When he talked about escaping from the siege, Luo Lin asked: "What about the family merchant fleet?" , have you dealt with it?"

"Take care of the fart!" Elu breathed alcohol, his white face was flushed, and he waved his hand heavily: "When I went, all five merchant ships had been auctioned off by that damned city lord. The people in charge also ran away. The robbers took more than half of the ransom money I brought, and my trip was in vain.”

"That's not good, you will definitely be called an incompetent wimp when you go back this time, and then your status as the young master will be lost, hehe." Luo Lin patted the young man on the shoulder gloatingly.

Elu knew in his heart that what Luo Lin said was right, but he was tired and couldn't turn the situation around. He simply followed Luo Lin's example and sat on the aisle, and said indifferently: "Who says it's not. I'm thinking about it too. What's the matter?" Young master, it doesn't matter if it's inappropriate, I'll give it up to my younger brother, so as to save my stepmother from bothering me all the time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Lin laughed, pinched the boy's face and slapped it with his hands: "Young man, you are so naive."

"Don't slap me in the face!" Elu waved his hand to hit Luo Lin's hand. He was drunk now and didn't bother to care about the guard's faux pas.

But with his little strength, how can he open it? Luo Lin was still slapping, using almost the same strength as slapping the palm, and he said without mercy: "You are no longer the young master, do you think you are safe? You think well , let me tell you, you are handing over your life to your stepmother and allowing her to kill you! No, not only your own life, but also your grandfather's life and your uncle's life. I I'm sure, when your younger brother succeeds to become the city lord, you won't live for three years at most."

While talking and hitting, Elu's eyes were staring at the beating, but Elu was not angry at all, instead he was stunned, the slight pain on his face stimulated him, and he slowly sobered up when he was drunk.

"What you said is true?" He asked, but he believed more than half of it in his heart. He had heard a lot about this kind of competition for the position of city lord since he was a child. It is rare to mention the fate of the loser, but Elu has lived in the Santo's House for almost sixteen years, and intrigues with people every day, how can he not think of it?

Before he had the idea of ​​retreating, it was nothing more than a little luck.

Luo Lin guessed that if he continued to slap his face, the kid would be angry, so he stopped, took another sip from the bottle, drank the last sip from the bottom of the bottle, and then sprayed it on Eru's face. Smelling of alcohol, he said with a smile, "If I say it's a lie, would you believe it?"

"Then what should I do?" Elu asked, he regretted a little after asking, such an alcoholic, and he was born as a commoner, what's the use of asking him? Although he didn't take back the words, he no longer expected an answer from the bottom of his heart.

Unexpectedly, Luo Lin smiled: "I have been a guard for five years, and I have seen you in this situation a lot. Now that you have a reputation and the support of the army, this is a good situation. The reason why you If your position is not stable, you are too incompetent to give confidence to those who follow you."

"But I..." Eru wanted to argue that his health was too poor, but he realized that this might be the reason for his failure, but it could not be used as a reason to retreat.

"Hmph, you still have some backbone." Luo Lin smiled, and then handed the wine bottle in his hand to Elu: "You fill up my wine bottle, and I will teach you a way to deal with this difficulty."

"Are you serious?" Eru was dubious.

"Wine!" Luo Lin pushed the bottle towards Elu.

Elu died as a horse doctor, didn't pick up the wine bottle, turned around and went to the cabin to get a new bottle of fire wine for Luo Lin.

While he was going to get the wine, Luo Lin turned to face the two guards in the aisle who had been woken up a long time ago and were staring at his guards dumbfounded: "What are you looking at, go to sleep."

The two guards hurriedly stood up straight without looking sideways, but they were all muttering in their hearts, this guy's guts are really made of diamonds, he dared to slap the nobleman so righteously.

After a while, Eru came again and handed the wine to Luo Lin. He looked up at the two guards in the corridor, and said softly, "Why don't you go into the cabin and talk?"

"No problem." Luo Lin stumbled up and got up, entered the cabin, and walked all the way to the carved bench in the room. Mouth poured wine.

"Drink less, drinking will hurt your health." Elu couldn't help but persuade.

"Don't worry, drinking can nourish your mind, don't you know?" Luo Lin waved his hand, but didn't continue to drink. To be honest, he doesn't like to drink much, and now it's nothing more than the work ethic of pretending to be an alcoholic. As for booze? Of course not, he is still a dragon now, his physical vitality is not covered, this little alcohol can only revitalize his blood.

"What should I do?" Eru asked sincerely, and now he felt that this guard might be able to help him tide over the difficulties.

"Look for an ally, take advantage of the situation." Luo Lin slurred his words, looked around, and finally landed on a small box on the cabin closet.

This small box contains something similar to cigarettes on the earth. Of course, Eru does not smoke, and this thing is not his, but the configuration of this ocean-going civilian ship for nobles. If you don’t smoke, it’s just a decoration. Money, anyway, is counted in the ticket.

So this era is prosperous. Although there are often conflicts between cities, commerce is also extremely developed, and all kinds of enjoyment are readily available.

"I want that." Luo Lin pointed to the closet. On Earth, he liked to smoke. It's a pity that there are no cigarettes in this world, so he quit. But now that he sees this thing, he misses it a little.

Eru was thinking about Luo Lin's words, and didn't say much after hearing the words. He opened the closet and threw a whole pack of cigarettes on Luo Lin: "It's all yours. Then who should I find an ally? How can I take advantage of it?"

Luo Lin took out a cigarette from the box, lit it up, took a puff, tasted it, and it felt good, similar to the cigarettes on the earth, but this one was more refreshing. After exhaling a smoke ring, Luo Lin took the wine Throwing the bottle aside, he decided to slowly replace alcohol with cigarettes in the future, who made him like smoking more: "How do I know who to ally with, after so many days on the ship, you just stay in the cabin, and the dance party is not good." I don’t participate, and I don’t talk to other nobles. To be honest, I have never seen such a lonely noble like you. Hey~ You don’t feel inferior, do you?”

"..." These words hit Eru's heartache, his face turned pale, he gritted his teeth, and couldn't care less about his face, and said truthfully: "I'm the only nobleman on board who doesn't know martial arts, man Laugh at me, women look down on me, I've been to proms a few times, and every time I've been treated as a clown, what do you mean by that?"

'Baz~Baz' Luo Lin squinted his eyes and puffed out the mist. He kept smoking for half a stick before he glanced at Elu and said teasingly: "Being a clown is ten thousand times better than being ignored by you, so good You won't take advantage of the conditions, I think you have a brain problem."

Luo Lin was not polite at all, and Eru felt a little angry, but he felt that his words made sense, and he fell into deep thought before he knew it.

Luo Lin didn't care about him, and began to enjoy this alien version of cigarettes. When he finished smoking one, he declared with a drunk face: "Smoke is better than alcohol. From now on, I will smoke. Young master, In the next five days, I will change the bottle of fire wine into cigarettes, right?"

Elu couldn't laugh or cry: "I said you can't stop mutilating your body? How can you make me feel so close to being disabled?"

"Everyone's fate is different, young master, I still envy you for being born noble. If you are noble, my wife and children can hide in a safe fortress."

Eru was stunned again, and suddenly felt a bright light in his heart, yes, I have something that most people in this world don't have, so why should I complain? Isn't it just that the body is weaker, what's the big deal.

All of a sudden, Elu was full of spirits, and said with a smile: "You are right, Luo Lin, I am indeed too lonely, I want to go out. Yes, I will go to the dance on the boat tomorrow!"

He smugly walked up and down in the cabin, but as he walked, hesitation appeared on his face again. A person's personality can be changed, but it is basically impossible to change it all at once. For example, Elu, as soon as he thought about it, the inferiority complex that had been ridiculed in his bones emerged again.

After walking around a few more times, he said, "I'm not sure by myself, you will go with me tomorrow. Don't worry, as long as I become the city lord in the end, I will let you be my general, and you will be free from alcohol and tobacco!"

Luo Lin laughed, and took a deep breath of the cigarette between his fingers: "Your promise is solid enough, okay, I'll just say this to you, and I'll fight with you."
