Chapter 431: Annie from Ade's Family
"Velim Kinnari?" Russell, who had changed into a home tuxedo, looked carefully at the young man in front of him in the living room.
His appearance is hard to describe, and his exotic temperament is strong.
Moreover, his accent is similar to that of Arnold Marquis of Lieyang, but it is worse than that of Marquis Arnold. After all, Marquis Arnaud has been dealing with the Grand Duchy of Shadowflame for a long time, and his accent is getting closer and closer to the local one. The young man can't speak the Grand Duchy's accent well.
Faced with the sudden visit of Velim Jinnari, Russell was quite surprised: "You said you were the Phoenix Bird Baron of the Fiery Torrent Kingdom."
"Yes, Sir Russell." The young man beat his chest and saluted, expressing his respect for Russell frankly. "I only came of age in May this year and successfully inherited the title of Baron Fengniao inherited from my family. However, my family only has a territory as large as a manor. "
"So." Russell raised his eyebrows, "Who are you, West Kinnary?"
"Do you also know my great-grandfather?" Velim said in surprise, "West Kinnari is my grandfather, the first Baron Phoenix... But after my grandfather passed away, the territory dwindled day by day, leaving only The next manor.”
West Kinnari is the dragon domain lord mentioned in the book "The Possible Evolution of Dragons".
Russell felt somewhat unreal about the descendants of the characters in the book suddenly appearing in front of him.
When the servant brought the tea, he asked: "Your Excellency Velim..."
"Sir Russell, please call me by my first name." Willim put down his tea cup and bowed to Russell, "You are a senior on the path of knights and a model of knight practice. Willim is just a junior in front of you. "
This is indeed the case.
The Kinnari family's territory has dwindled to the point where it is only the size of a manor. Maybe one day even the title of Baron Fengniao will be deprived of it.
Regardless of status or strength, Velim cannot be compared with Russell.
"Okay, I'll call you Velim." Russell nodded, "Sit down and talk first... By the way, that big bird outside is your fantasy beast, right? It looks very strange. It seems to be a pseudo-dragon descendant of a fantasy beast?"
"It's called Lily." There was light in Velim's eyes when he mentioned Lily, "It is indeed the pseudo-dragon descendant of the phantom beast species, the Mimetic Nari Dragon, but I haven't made a contract with it yet... I have just been promoted to the Grand Knight. How long has it been since I was not proficient enough with the Dou Qi Chain?"
"I see."
"Your Excellency Russell, this is a letter from the Elector Mel to you." Willim handed the letter to Russell.
Then he fell silent. Although he was an adult, he was obviously not very sociable.
"You sit down first and I'll read the letter." Russell said.
Then I opened Cousin Mel's letter and saw that the handwriting was indeed written by Mel, and the mark on the envelope was indeed unique to the Yujiuka family.
As for why Mel didn't use the family's knights to deliver the letter when he wrote the letter, he instead entrusted a young knight from a foreign country to deliver the letter.
The explanation was already in the letter.
"Russell, I have to admit, I praise the dragon. This time I went to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents. I completed the lobbying task perfectly, so that the two countries can become allies, and the dragon will fight side by side. But that's not the point. The point is, I Welcome my love!"
turn out to be.
After Mel went on a mission to the Kingdom of Fiery Torrents, he met a famous lady at a dance, and it was love at first sight and heart-to-heart love.
"Her name is Annie, Annie Inula. Her beauty, her agility, and her enthusiasm are things I can't describe. All I can tell you is that her father is Ad Lieyang. of an earl.”
Russell narrowed his eyes.
Asked Velim directly: "Count Ad Lieyang, do you know?"
"I know that he and Arnold Lieyang Marquis are both collateral bloodlines of the Lieyang royal family, because after riding the dragon, the Lieyang surname was restored." Willim explained, "My aunt is the descendant of Earl Ade. Madam, Anne is my cousin."
"That's it." Russell understood that Willim was obviously abducted by Mel.
As expected, Velim was quickly mentioned in the letter.
"Velim admires you very much because his great-grandfather was the Lord of the Dragon Territory. Thanks to Annie's relationship, he hopes to come to you to ask for advice on how to be promoted to the Lord of the Dragon Territory... So I brought him back to the country and asked him to find you. "
Mel didn't bring Velim here in person. He had just returned from a mission and had too many things to do, and Velim couldn't wait any longer.
So we simply sent someone to escort Welim to the Netherworld Valley, and let Welim come to visit Russell alone.
At the end of the letter, Mel hoped that Russell could take Willim in for a while for the sake of his hard-won love.
Close the letter.
Russell smiled and asked: "So, Willim, describe your cousin Anne to me."
He wondered what it would be like to be a lady who could attract his cousin.
Willim frowned and thought for a while: "Cousin Anne is very beautiful, and very... very lively and cheerful. I don't know anything else. Because her castle is in the capital, and my manor is adjacent to the snowfield, and this time I am also a prince. Later, I went to the capital to visit His Majesty the King, and then stayed at Cousin Anne’s house for a while.”
Russell understood that the relationship between the cousins was obviously not very close, and they did not live together, so they might not see each other once a year.
The relationship is clarified.
Russell went straight to the point: "Mel said in the letter that you want to ask me how to be promoted to Dragon Domain Lord?"
"Yes!" Willim responded with firm eyes.
"But why do you want to become the Lord of the Dragon Domain? Isn't it easier to fight against the Flying Dragon Knight?"
"Because, I want to restore the family's momentum." Willim said, "Lily and I, we both want to revive the family and restore the grandeur of the dragon domain lord period of my great-grandfather, instead of waiting for the territory to wither into a cold spring point."
Of course, there is another reason that Velim did not say.
There is no bipedal flying dragon in his family. He wants to become a flying dragon knight, and the difficulty is similar to that of a dragon domain lord - at least he has a pseudo-dragon descendant of the fantasy beast species in his family, the pseudokinari dragon Lily, which gives him a little more hope of promotion than others.
After hearing this, Russell slowly shook his head: "I'm sorry, Willim, if that's the purpose, you'd better go back."
"Sir Russell, why is this?"
"Being promoted to Dragon Territory Lord means death. If it is just to revitalize the family, there is no need to work so hard. And, let me tell you the truth, there is no shortcut to being promoted to Dragon Territory Lord. It is a matter of life and death. Those with insufficient background will never succeed. "
This is the truth. If Russell didn't have the background of Amber Worm, and if he didn't have the background of Xiao Menglong, he would not be promoted either.
As Mel's future cousin-in-law, Russell is still willing to pass on his experience if possible.
However, this experience is unbearable.
Waving his hand, Russell said: "So, go back, make a contract with Lily, become a fantasy beast knight, and then find a way to ride the dragon."
Velim did not leave, but his eyes became even more intense: "Your teachings are the same as those that my great-grandfather left to the descendants of the family!"
"Huh? What is the same?" Russell asked.
"You said that the dragon domain lord needs the foundation. What my great-grandfather left behind also told us that the descendants must prepare sufficient foundation to attack the dragon domain lord." Willim said simply, "Sir Russell, this foundation is talking about the amber worm. ,right?"
Russell was really surprised now: "Do you know about amber worms, or that your great-grandfather also had amber worms?"
