Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 159 Father and Son
"Father, what did you say?" Greco looked at Godwin on the main seat in disbelief, "Let me show mercy to Lucia in tomorrow's duel?"

He stood up indignantly, and said anxiously: "He didn't just fight against me this time, but openly insulted you and the entire Golden Dynasty! Exile a duke—oh, I don't even know what these ancient dragons are thinking What do you think, since the founding of the dynasty, there hasn’t been any duke who has been condemned. Grandma and His Majesty Radagon have taken care of him before, but now he has to make progress, how can we not teach him a memorable lesson?”

After a storm of accusations, seeing his father's face still calm, just looking at him indifferently, Grek couldn't help swallowing, took two steps back, and sat back on the chair obediently.

"Finished?" Godwin raised his eyebrows.

"It's over."

Godwin sized up his eldest son for a few seconds, and finally said when he saw him sitting on pins and needles: "If you can hold on until I come back, instead of fighting with Lucia during the deliberations of the court meeting, it seems that I am not here. For more than a year, you have not made no progress."

Greg smiled awkwardly, and was about to reply when his father continued: "You don't have to hide in front of me, son."

"You actually don't care about the fate of Duke Duoris, and even privately questioned why I had to pay such a huge price to protect an abandoned son in your eyes - all you care about is that the ancient dragon prince just arrived in the capital. You have been conferred the position of God-man, and you have dominated everything in the past six months, and you have become the most popular among Rodel's demigods."

"Of course, what you care most about is that he blatantly stood against you in the deliberations of the court meeting, but he didn't pay any price. Even with my instruction, you only got a chance to fight him fairly in public."

"After all this happened, you found that the world doesn't revolve around you, so you want to defeat him, hurt him, humiliate him in the eyes of all eyes, to prove yourself to me, your grandmother and even the three dynasties He is the strongest demigod of the same generation, and the blood of gold is far more noble than the blood of the ancient dragon that has been abandoned by the times in your eyes, right?"

"Father, I—" Greg stood up anxiously, intending to argue, but couldn't think of how to speak.

"Relax, child." Godwin breathed a sigh of relief, and he stroked the armrest of the main seat with his palm. It was obvious that there were several huge pearls and gemstones inlaid there, but now they have been removed, leaving only one uneven place. base.

"This is at home, I am your father, and I didn't accuse you of anything—the pursuit of the peak at any time, and the desire to become an existence that leads the world forward, this is the most precious character of the gold family, just like me I have never blamed you for your pride, and this time you want to prove that you are better than Lucia, and gold is better than ancient dragons, and it is completely understandable."

"But you have to remember," he slowly stepped down from the main seat, walked up to Greg, and pressed his shoulders, "Since ancient times, every existence that can rule the world has not only the world's invincible Weili also has the ability to absorb everything and encompass everything."

"In ancient times, in the era when the 'Eternal Lighthouse' Fam Yazra hung high above Nimgfu, and the dragon king Platon Sankswega was everywhere, except for the arrogant and rebellious flame giants who set off round after round of rebellion , the ancient dragon dynasty treats all creatures in the border land equally. Leaving aside the storm dynasty that worships the dragon god, whether it is the sub-humans of the weeping peninsula, the humans of the barren land, the Samirs of the extreme northern ice sheet, or the ancients of the western land The German Dynasty, or the eternal capital established by the extraterrestrial civilization in the center of the Asian altar, the Dragon Clan regards it as an equal to itself."

"By the time when your grandfather became king, the Golden Dynasty was able to accommodate many alien races with different appearances and beliefs from ours. The mixed-race warriors in the Eastern Expeditionary Legion in the early years, and Kalia and Kalia who later became friends with us This is true of Sky City."

"As for the defenders of the fundamentalism of the Golden Law who spare no effort to suppress alien races"

He sighed slightly, and said earnestly: "I hope you can understand that baseless anger and hostility are by no means a noble or pure expression, on the contrary, it can only represent cowardice."

"You mean" Greco looked at his father tentatively, "let me take care of the face of the ancient dragon dynasty while defeating Lucia, so as to win the favor of the two ancient dragon priests?"

Godwin couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't let your own eyesight be so short-sighted, Greg - you may not be able to reap the kindness of the Priest of Lance by being merciful, just like we may not see immediate benefits by protecting Duke Duoris. But we are gold A family, the only and destined king of the junction, so you must learn to look at the world from the perspective of a king, so as to make the most accurate judgment when facing every decision."

"In the next few decades, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, the ancient dragon dynasty with a new demigod like Lucia will gradually recover, and even grow to the point where it is not much inferior to the golden dynasty. Back then, we could not bear the price of being an enemy. , and will remain so in the future.”

"No matter how much you hate Lucia, you will have no choice but to admit his status as Dragon King in the future, and if you want to go further and create a more prosperous world under the leadership of the Golden Dynasty, you have to fight with Gu Long and Ka Leah walks side by side, and Duke Duoris, a valuable and loyal minister, is our indispensable Prime Minister on the road to such a future."

He looked into his son's eyes and said, "Now, do you have any questions?"

Greco stared blankly at the golden blessing in his father's pupils, which was as bright as the scorching sun, nodded heavily in a turbulent mood, and said, "No more, father."

"It's getting late, let's go back and rest," Godwin said with a smile, "I've heard about the lakeside battle between Lucia and Latarn in the southern border, so let me see tomorrow how much better my son is than them. "

"I won't let you down!" Gregor promised firmly.

Watching his son's back disappearing at the end of the corridor, Godwin called the old steward of Fredell Hall, and asked, "How do you deal with the maids, attendants, and dismantled jewelry decorations that have been removed from here?"

The old butler's heart tightened, and he knelt down immediately, and replied respectfully: "Most of the maids and attendants have been placed in other properties of His Highness Gregor as much as possible, and those who cannot be placed will be given an extra year's salary and let them go. All the jewels and decorations that have been dismantled have been sold, a total of 62 rune, His Highness rewarded [-]% of it to his personal guards, and sealed the rest into the treasury for your inquiry."

Godwin nodded slightly, and said, "I see, you can go down."

After the old butler left, Godwin let out a breath slowly, tapping his knuckles on the bare armrest of the chair. It seemed that Grek was still so vain and domineering when he was away, and his mother still indulged his style, but at least Judging from his recent performance, this child is definitely not useless, but he needs to be carefully trained by himself in the days to come.

The excellent bloodline of the golden line must not go into decline after him, Godwin thought so.
