Chapter 854: Promotion to Nobility - Prelude

Weilin looked a little suspicious and asked curiously, "Where is it?"

"The extremely cold ice field of the Brizet subcontinent." Aljetta answered.

"When?"

"Five years later. I'm not sure about the exact time. If you want to go, I have to ask my father. After all, he knows the exact time, and only he can take you there." Aljeta shook her head and answered.

Weilin stared at Aljeta, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "If I remember correctly, Uncle Alaric is about to abdicate."

Aljeta nodded and responded, "Yes, my father will step down in eight years. The next king of the Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom has been confirmed, and it is Fineus."

"However, my father has already ceded power. It is estimated that in two years, he will become a lazy dragon."

"You are making up stories about your father like this, aren't you afraid that I will complain to you later?"

"What's there to be afraid of? The only way he can beat me is if he can find me. As long as I hide, why should I be afraid of him?" Aljeta said confidently, without any fear on her face.

"What a filial dragon."

Laxia, who was sitting next to Aljeta, looked at her husband with a helpless look, not knowing whether her choice was right or wrong.

"Wei Lin, how about it, do you want to go?"

"Go, I've never been to other subcontinents, this is a good opportunity to go and take a look." Weilin nodded and replied, "By the way, can you ask Uncle Alaric if I can bring a few more people with me?"

"No problem, I'll do it, don't worry." Aljeta replied with a smile.

Nearing evening, Weilin and Aljeta ended their conversation and left the Adventurer's Tavern.

On the third-floor window sill, Aljetta watched Weilin's departing back and whispered, "When I first met Weilin, he was just a silver knight, much weaker than me. But now he has already touched the threshold of the middle level of soul consciousness. I don't know what good things he ate to make his strength grow so fast."

Laxia rested her head on Aljeta's shoulder and asked softly, "Why, are you envious?"

Aljeta did not hide anything and answered openly: "There is one thing. After all, it takes time for us to improve our strength. Apart from treasures like the origin of the world, other things are insignificant to us. This is an advantage, but it can also be said to be a disadvantage."

"That's true. The long lifespan of the legendary race is also a confinement of the world." Laxia hugged Aljeta from behind and replied softly, "In the story books, there are often stories of dragons avoiding human disasters when they are weak, and cheering on the enemy's graves in the future, but this is just an exception. The stronger the strength, the better the search ability. After all, no creature wants to leave a potential disaster for itself."

"That's right!" Aljeta curled her lips and responded, "Look, those five-colored dragons are born a lot, but they also die a lot. Thinking about it this way, I feel much better."

Laxia turned Aljeta around, looked him in the eyes, and asked with a serious expression, "When are we going to lay eggs?"

"How about three years from now? Then we can have more children and ask Weilin to send more gold coins as gifts."

"Why do you keep thinking about gold coins?"

"Aren't you?" Aljeta asked back.

"Hey, we should go back."

Laxia's eyes were a little evasive and she changed the subject directly.

On the other side, Weilin and Kyle came to Qixing City at night. The lights were bright, the crowds filled the commercial streets, and the air was filled with fireworks.

"It has some of the flavor of Yinxing City."

"My Lord, you are missing Windsor Castle a little bit."

"One thing is that I haven't been back for more than ten years, and I don't know if the people I knew back then are still around."

When he was just eating and waiting to die, he still got to know a lot of people in Windsor Castle, especially the elder Miller. He didn't know whether the elder was still alive.

As the family librarian, he is recognized as a living fossil of the Aix family. The elder knows a few family secrets that even his own father does not know.

“Forget about it. I haven’t had a good stroll in Qixing City under the night sky for ten years. I have to spend some gold coins today.” After saying that, Weilin merged into the crowd and headed for the stalls selling special delicacies.

Seeing this, Kyle smiled and shook his head.

Before being promoted to earl, my master was considered a branch of the Earl of Eagle.

After becoming the Earl, Qi Xingling's lineage truly became a branch of the Ex family, with the right to formulate branch family rules, family tree, and pass down his own name as the surname.

However, according to his understanding, the four earls who founded the Aix family did not pass down their names as surnames. They called themselves XXX.XXX.XXX. Aix, and still call themselves XXX.XXX.

Like other families, most people will pass down their own names as surnames to distinguish their lineage from the main family.

After sensing for a while, Kyle found that Weilin, who was eating with his mouth full of oil, walked towards him with a slight twitch of his mouth.

……

Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, it was half a month later.

Lester took the generous gift from Baird and left Qixing Territory with his subordinates.

During these fifteen days, he treated himself as a law-abiding spectator and visited Qixing Territory under the guidance of Baird, his "guide".

As for the things recorded, they were detailed and concise in the right way. As a veteran of the Title Review Department who had worked for over 60 years, he was able to sit firmly on the captain's position by relying on his ability to keep an eye on all directions and to listen to all sides.

Over the years, he has witnessed many examples of former colleagues getting themselves into the kingdom of the Goddess of Life.

Of course, all the content is true and reliable, otherwise he would be in great trouble after the truth was revealed, and even his uncle could not save him.

The young man patted his mount, came to Laiya's side, and asked in a low voice: "Cousin, is the usual inspection operation like this?"

Leia looked at her nephew with a serious face and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about the facts. Some things cannot be generalized. You should forget what you read in the books now."

"When we examine the titles, we encounter many nobles whose identities are extremely complicated. They don't speak up, and we don't know who they are related to by blood or by interest."

"From now on, learn more from Captain Lester. The reason he has been able to stay in the Peerage Review Department for 67 years and remain standing is not only because of his background, but also because of his abilities."

"Okay, cousin." The young man swallowed and nodded in response.
