Chapter 384: The Choice of the Turtle Dragon

The Fluorescent Mushroom family arrived at the Golden Summit Castle in early February.

Because the female family members needed to take a carriage and there was no direct trade route, they had to transfer from the volcanic oasis, so it took more than a week to travel.

"My poor Robbie!" Old Lady Ingrid hugged Mrs. Robbie as soon as she got off the carriage.

Mrs. Robbie, who had been quite strong during this period, finally couldn't help crying loudly after throwing herself into her mother's arms.

Diana was also hugged by Lady Meryl.

The scene was very touching.

After a lot of crying and comforting, the guests attending the funeral came over to greet them, and then everyone moved to the hall of the castle.

Baron Roman glanced at Russell in the crowd, and the father and son looked at each other, and they understood each other.

In the previous time, Russell had flown over before the family convoy arrived at the Golden Plains to communicate with his parents about everything that happened here. Including the conflict with Count Osklo.

Of course.

He focused on describing how he killed three dragons with one sword, shocking the Shuiliu family and the Jinding Mushroom family.

So Baron Roman, who knew the situation well, quickly had a conversation with Earl Osklo, Lord Dyson, and the side branch members of the Jinding Mushroom family, and barely reached a unified consensus.

Respect Madam Robi's choice and recognize the heir chosen by Madam Robi.

And old lady Ingrid and Lady Meryl also pulled Madam Robi to talk about private matters in the room.

"Robi, you have to make the right choice." Old Lady Ingrid said, "You have lost Davis now, but you still have Diana. You must take good care of Diana and arrange her future life."

"Mother..." Mrs. Robi said tangledly, "Diana is too young, and it will take many years for her to get married and have children..."

Mrs. Meryl said, "That's why you have to be cautious. If you choose Diana, everything will be fine after a few years. But if you choose Dyson, after Dyson becomes a baron, you and Diana will have to leave the Golden Castle."

"Ahem..." Mrs. Robi coughed lightly, her face a little pale, "Leaving the Golden Castle? I haven't thought about it."

After she got married, she stayed in the Golden Castle almost all the time. After giving birth to Diana, her health has been poor, and she even skipped the limited social activities. It can be said that she has long regarded the Golden Castle as a part of her life.

Suddenly hearing that she was leaving, she was shocked.

Old Lady Ingrid looked at her daughter's haggard appearance.

She cried softly, "My poor Robbie, mother shouldn't have agreed to let you have a child. Giving birth to a child means giving half of your life to the Golden Mushroom Family. Who in the Golden Mushroom Family cares about you now? They just want to drive you and your daughter away!"

"Mother, I am willing to do this." Mrs. Robbie comforted, and she forced a smile, "I am willing to have a child for Davis, and Diana is also very well-behaved and sensible. I never regret giving birth to her."

What else can old lady Ingrid say? She can only complain angrily: "This Davis!"

After a while.

Mrs. Meryl asked: "Robbie, have you made up your mind?"

Mrs. Robbie nodded: "I have made up my mind. I am the Baroness of the Golden Mushroom Family. I need to take on this responsibility... Dyson may not treat us well, but he is the heir chosen by Davis."

"My confused Robbie!" Old lady Ingrid sighed.

At this time, the door was knocked, and Russell walked in with Diana: "Grandma, mother, aunt, maybe we should listen to Diana's ideas first."

"Diana?" The three were puzzled.

In their eyes, Diana was just an eleven-year-old girl who knew nothing, and the adults should decide this matter.

But Russell insisted: "I think we should listen to her ideas."

Then he patted his cousin on the shoulder: "Go ahead, express your ideas loudly, we will all respect you."

Diana glanced at Russell, saw encouragement in Russell's eyes, and nodded heavily.

Facing her mother, she whispered: "Mother, I know your decision. You love your father so much that you don't want to change your father's choice before his death. But I think that perhaps Mr. Howard can represent my father's true choice."

Mr. Howard is the charcoal dragon.

After Diana finished speaking, she waited nervously for Mrs. Robbie's decision. She was too young and couldn't control her own destiny.

But she believed that with the support of her invincible cousin Russell, she still had hope.

At this moment, Russell was also calmly waiting for Mrs. Robbie's choice. He was very disappointed with Aunt Robbie's indecision, and it was ridiculous to say that she still loved Baron Davis. Davis had been affectionate in the Grand Duchy.

Aunt Robbie was not in love, but was being stupid.

But it didn't matter. His main purpose of coming here was to support Aunt Robbie, not to snatch the inheritance of the Golden Field. Whether it was to choose Lord Dyson to succeed the throne or to give it to Diana's future son, as long as it was Aunt Robbie's choice.

But just before.

Cousin Diana, who had always been quiet, suddenly found him and asked him a few questions, making him decide to help.

"Cousin, why can't I inherit the baronship?"

"Well, it may be because the laws of the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame do not support women inheriting the title." Russell replied.

"So everything of my father must be handed over to Brother Dyson, and I can't get anything?"

"Not necessarily. Your father's title can actually be passed down to your son across generations... After all, the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family is ready to do so. If the Golden Mushroom Family imitates it, no one should say anything."

"Will the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family violate the laws of the Grand Duchy by doing so?"

"Well, how should I put it? The laws of the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame are decided by the Shadow Flame Dragon. As long as the Shadow Flame Dragon nods, the outdated laws can be amended." Russell said, "In the final analysis, the rules are made by the strong."

Diana said thoughtfully: "Then in our Golden Plains, does Sir Howard have the final say?"

So.

With the support of Russell, she boldly told her mother her idea - let Sir Howard decide who will be the heir.

Mrs. Robbie looked at Diana in surprise, and then looked at her nephew with outstanding temperament.

Her nephew even offended an earl of the Grand Duchy for him, which made her feel really guilty.

Finally, he sighed and nodded: "Okay, everything will be decided by Lord Howard."

...

The charcoal dragon has been guarding Davis's grave for the past few days.

With Mrs. Robbie's announcement that the charcoal dragon will choose the heir of the Golden Baron, all the guests rushed over.

However, there are only two great nobles at present.

One is Earl Osklo, who still stays in the Golden Castle, and the other is Baron Roman - Earl Merlin has left. Other great nobles sent representatives or heirs to pay their respects. If they are not relatives, they don't need to come in person.

The guests are divided into three waves.

One wave is led by Baron Roman, surrounding Diana; one wave is led by Earl Osklo, surrounding Lord Dyson; and another wave is mainly watching the fun, and neither side joins.

"Lord Howard." Mrs. Robbie stepped forward.

The charcoal dragon, who had been lying on the ground with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and looked at Mrs. Robbie with sadness.

"Davis has left us forever. Now, we need to choose his successor." Mrs. Robbie said with sadness, "There are currently two candidates, one is Diana, my and Davis' daughter, and the other is Dyson, Davis' nephew."

Paused.

Mrs. Robbie said, "Please make the decision."

After Mrs. Robbie finished speaking, the charcoal dragon fell into deep thought, looking at the tiny Diana, and then at the young and strong Lord Dyson.

Dyson clenched his fists and responded to the charcoal dragon's gaze nervously. Diana also had a tight face and looked at the charcoal dragon silently.

The charcoal dragon did not choose a successor immediately.

Instead, it turned its head to look at the tombstone, wailed, and then got up from the ground, stood up, and shook its wings.

The trauma brought to it by the snow giant Da has almost recovered.

Under the eager and nervous gaze of everyone, the charcoal dragon Howard slowly walked towards Diana and Dyson, and finally stopped between the two. It took a deep look at Diana, as if it saw the shadow of Davis on Diana's face.

In its slender vertical pupils, sadness, struggle, determination and other expressions flashed, and finally it slowly shook its head at Diana.

Then it turned and walked towards Dyson, and exhaled a warm dragon breath to Dyson.

This was not the original dragon breath, nor was it a fatal dragon breath, but just a dragon breath that represented its recognition of the other party's heir status.
