Chapter 189: Your lord is back

Maro City.

Duke's Palace.

This ancient castle with a history of more than 200 years has witnessed the development of Marro City from a ruin to a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands.

It also witnessed the rise and fall of the Stein family.

For 200 years, the Stein family has been ruling the vast land of the southern plains.

Although it has experienced many crises, it has been able to turn danger into safety every time.

But this time, it seems particularly tragic.

A tragic battle suddenly broke out in the Duke's Palace last night. At that time, the flames shot up to the sky and the shouts of killing were endless.

The hot blood dyed the earth red and gradually merged into a stream.

No one knows how many people died.

The battle lasted until late at night before it gradually subsided.

Early in the morning, although the smoke of the Duke's Palace had not yet dissipated, the castle gate was opened.

This indicated that the chaos was over.

Teams of soldiers kept carrying corpses out of the palace,

and teams of cavalry carried the Duke's Palace's statement everywhere.

It was not until they read the statement that the people, who had been in a state of panic all night, knew about it.

It turned out that the Duke's mansion was holding a family dinner last night, but a large number of [Osho Shinrikyo] assassins took the opportunity to sneak into the mansion with the intention of overthrowing the regime.

The eldest son, Bird Stein, and the third son, Morris Stein, led the knights to bravely fight back against the invading enemies.

However, there was a great swordsman among the assassins, and the eldest and third sons were defeated and both died.

More than half of the knights in the mansion were also killed or injured.

At this critical moment of life and death, the second son, Leon Stein, who was originally insane, was suddenly guided by the holy light and blessed by the ancestors.

Not only did he regain his sanity, but he also obtained the skills of a god descending to earth.

With his own strength, he turned the tide and saved the collapsing building.

All the invading enemies were killed, and the wolfish ambitions of the cultists were completely destroyed.

After hearing the news, people were overjoyed and ran to tell each other.

Ethan looked at the statement in his hand, smacked his lips, and was somewhat amused.

He flew back with Sophia early this morning, and saw the statement as soon as he entered the manor.

"Do you want to see it?"

As he said that, Ethan handed the statement in his hand to Sophia.

Sophia didn't take it, and walked straight to the study.

Seeing this, Ethan shook his head gently and followed.

As soon as he entered the study, Sophia closed the door and planted a strawberry on Ethan's neck without saying a word.

Ethan was stunned for a moment, but he immediately realized that Sophia was swearing sovereignty.

"Sophia, I know you want to swear sovereignty, but now is not the time!"

Sophia shook her head: "I don't want to swear any sovereignty, because I'm about to get married!"

"She's lying!" Catherine's voice rang in Ethan's ears.

Ethan was helpless at this time.

Catherine was the rainbow eagle, and after being summoned, she looked like a little girl.

For some reason, she knows nothing about her abilities.

However, she seems to have the ability to sense lies, and no matter who is lying, as long as she doesn't like it, she will interject.

Either "He is lying" or "What he said is true."

In short, no matter when and where, no matter what the situation is, she always has to show her presence.

At first, Ethan thought it was good, but after a day, she was like a fly, buzzing in his ears, annoying him to death.

What's worse is that he can't stop it.

You know, Katherine is not as obedient as Volibear and Kayle.

She does whatever she wants to do, completely out of control.

You can't blame her, once you blame her, she will cry immediately.

What's worse is that Volibear and Kayle, the two lackeys, don't know what kind of demon they are.

When they see her crying, they rush to defend her, and they have reached the point of ignoring orders.

Ethan feels that Katherine is the real master, and he is the apostle.

Catherine alone is already annoying, and now Sophia is causing trouble again.

She was so enthusiastic when she came back, it was nothing more than knowing that she was going back to the territory soon, and declaring war on Angelina head-on.

Ethan originally planned to tell Angelina about this later, but now it seems that he can only confess the truth.

As for the result?

He didn't know, he could only wait for the judgment of fate.

Ethan sighed and helped Sophia.

"Okay! I have to go back to the territory first.

Don't go out alone when I'm not here, understand?"

"Are you in such a hurry to leave?" Sophia wrapped her hands around Ethan tightly.

"I really have to go back to the territory, you should be careful these two days."

After that, Ethan put Sophia on the chair and was about to leave.

Seeing that Ethan was determined to leave, Sophia suddenly changed her face and shouted loudly: "If you dare to walk out of this door today, you will never see me again in the future."

"She is lying!" Catherine's voice appeared regardless of the occasion.

"Do I need you to explain this?" Ethan cursed in his heart.

A strong woman like Sophia will get angry if she is not satisfied.

No, this woman must not be spoiled.

If she does not show weakness to him, she will not be able to live in the future.

Thinking of this, Ethan ignored Sophia's threats and left decisively.

Before leaving, he slammed the door heavily.

He wanted to give Sophia a clear signal that only one person in this family can have the final say.

…

I don't know what Angelina will do after knowing this?

I guess there will be a big quarrel.

She just has no opinion, but it doesn't mean she has no temper.

I just made a mistake that every man in the world would make.

Will she forgive me with this explanation?

Ethan flew towards the territory nervously all the way.

Not long after, a lightning fell at the gate of Bertner Manor.

The manor exploded immediately, and nearly a hundred people rushed out of the tents of all sizes on the lawn, holding weapons and surrounding Ethan.

"Who are you?"

"Hey... it's the lord!"

"The lord is back!"

"The lord is back!"

"Go and inform the lady and the chief."

"Oh! I'll go now!"

Hearing the voice, Angelina lifted her skirt and ran downstairs happily.

Everyone consciously lined up in two rows to make a way for her.

Ethan walked on the sidewalk with a smile, waving to everyone while opening his arms to pick up Angelina who was rushing towards him.

"Ethan, you're finally back. Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Angelina rushed into Ethan's arms.

She saw the strawberry mark on Ethan's neck and her eyes widened immediately, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she calmly blocked it with her arm.

Ethan smiled awkwardly: "Yes! I'm back!"

"Your lord is back!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"
