Chapter Twelve Marrying A Magician Girl
"I hope, Rennes, that you can marry my eldest daughter, Jessica," Igor said solemnly.
"???" Rennes was filled with question marks upon hearing this.
Was this guy so serious about giving his eldest daughter to him?
Could it be that he was under some kind of pressure and lost his mind?!
Before understanding the reasons behind this, Rennes didn't dare to accept this 'gift'.
"I don't have confidence in coming back unscathed from this border war," Igor said with a bitter smile, seemingly sensing Rennes' thoughts.
There are no rules on the battlefield.
In the wars between nations, small nobles like him, who are weak in strength, are simply risking their lives for wealth and glory.
Even if he gathers a group of local nobles, he can't guarantee that he won't die on the battlefield.
Upon hearing this, Rennes immediately understood the implied meaning in Igor's words.
This old guy wants to secure his family's future.
By marrying his eldest daughter as a mistress (concubine), it is clear that he hopes Rennes can help the Yark family in critical moments in the future.
After all,
The next generation of the Yark family has not yet grown up.
As the eldest son and heir, although he has average magical talent, he is currently only a 4th-tier mage (mages are a highly expensive late-game profession, with money you're a mage lord, without money you're a mage loser, lacking enough money to buy equipment and magic scrolls, their early-game combat power is completely inferior to warrior and knight professions).
He is also not outstanding in terms of strategy.
It is difficult for him to uphold the Yark family's banner.
In this situation,
If Igor, this old guy, doesn't come back from the battlefield, the Yark family's various businesses will undoubtedly be swallowed up by other nobles.
Ultimately, they will decline.
"This matter is too sudden."
"I still need to think about it carefully."
Understanding the reasons behind it, Rennes immediately prepared to refuse.
He is not an animal that thinks with his lower body.
Just to marry a woman he has never met, he would help the Yake family withstand the pressure from other nobles.
Isn't that foolish?
"I can hand over the Yake family's Black Rock Mine to you."
Upon hearing Rennes' refusal, Igor gritted his teeth and increased his offer again.
Upon hearing this,
Rennes' eyes also lit up.
The Black Rock Mine is a highly profitable industry.
As an extremely sturdy rock,
Black rock is the main building material for military structures such as castles and city walls.
The demand is high.
Although the Yake family's Black Rock Mine is only the smallest type,
If managed well, it is not a problem to earn two thousand gold coins per year.
Although it is far from his brewery,
It is still a decent source of income.
Thinking of this,
Rennes immediately became tempted.
However,
He did not rush to agree.
Instead, he chose to continue probing to see if he could gain more benefits from the Yake family.
However,
It is clear that Igor, this old fox, has already set his bottom line.
Regardless of Rennes' probing, he no longer increased the stakes.
After a brief struggle, Rennes ultimately chose to agree to this matter.
After all.
There's no harm in making a profit.
After the two signed the magical contract, Igor left with a smile.
...
A few days later.
There was another woman in the Habsburg Manor.
It was Jessica, the eldest daughter of the Yark Baron family.
This woman is nineteen years old, with a melon seed-shaped face and an intellectual temperament all over her body.
Very beautiful.
In addition, she is also a magician.
And her talent is quite good, possessing intermediate magical aptitude.
It's just that all the family's magical resources are provided to her brother, who is the heir.
This is why her magician level is only at the 2nd rank.
Knowing this, Rennes was overjoyed.
He thought it was just an incidental benefit of the exchange of interests.
Who would have thought there would be such a pleasant surprise.
"A woman with such excellent talent will definitely give birth to children with no inferior talent."
"If lucky, maybe she can give birth to a child with a golden-level successor."
Thinking of this, Rennes suddenly became even more excited.
After a brief emotional exchange.
Rennes took Jessica into the bridal chamber.
...
It has been a week since Rennes married the eldest daughter of the Ayak family.
During this week, the region of Rennes has been quite lively.
News of the border war breaking out has already spread.
All the nobles who aspire to higher titles can't contain their inner restlessness and have started forming alliances with familiar families.
At the same time, they are constantly expanding their own armed forces.
They are preparing to take advantage of the chaos and gain something from this large-scale war.
The families that wanted to bring Rennes into their fold have long been prepared and have set off for the front lines.
The outside world is in turmoil.
However, Rennes' life has not been greatly affected.
Every day, he educates his children and accompanies his wives.
He also takes care of the affairs of his territory.
The days remain peaceful and comfortable.
In the blink of an eye, the warm and pleasant spring has turned into a scorching and unbearable summer.
During these few months, Rennes successfully impregnated Jessica.
At the same time, his other two lovers, Leila and Murphy, are also nearing their due dates.
One week later, the two women gave birth to their children.
