Chapter 448
The mayor of Montilfarli glared at her immediately.
Dark Dimon's pretty face was indeed very deceptive, and ordinary little girls could not resist it at all.
But of course her daughter could not be so superficial.
Aurora was particularly concerned about the son of the Valkyrie, and she was to blame.
After a busy period of relaxation and drunkenness, she accidentally let slip the news of their childhood engagement.
Originally, this so-called "child engagement" was just a casual decision made by the two mothers during a chat.
At that time, Montilfarli had just had the intention to build a city, but suffered from insufficient connections and resources, so she found the most trustworthy comrade-in-arms-Valkyrie? Yalvette.
Yalvette was such a gentle person, and when she learned that the purpose of Montilfarli's city building was to accommodate the discriminated mixed-bloods, she agreed without hesitation.
At that time, the war had only ended a few years ago, and the Duke's Mansion was also licking the wounds left by the war, and the inventory was also tight.
Alvette could choose to support Montilfarli without hesitation at that time, which touched Montilfarli very much.
She happened to see two half-grown children cuddle in the crib, and she impulsively proposed this child marriage.
Alvette knew that doing so would make her comrades feel a little more at ease, so she agreed at that time.
But in fact, neither side was too serious.
After successfully building the city, Montilfarli also provided a lot of rewards to the Duke's Mansion.
If neither side mentioned it, as the children of both sides grew up, the "child marriage" would probably be in name only.
Unfortunately, when her daughter was five years old, the mayor of Montilfarli accidentally exposed this matter.
From then on, Aurora, who was already sensible and knew right and wrong at the age of five, knew that she had such a "fiancé".
Although they had never met after growing up, the news in the Free City was still circulating quickly.
Aurora could occasionally find out about things related to her from the maids around her.
Slowly, she knew his name, his mischievousness, and those seemingly true rumors.
But what does it matter?
Isn't it enough to be good-looking? 【?】
Bad character can be cultivated. 【?】
Aurora actually knew what this "child marriage" was about.
But from her point of view, if the marriage could be successfully concluded, the burden on her mother's shoulders would be immediately lightened.
The establishment of the Free City is just the beginning, and the subsequent development is the key.
As a new city built in the territory of the demons, its development must be full of difficulties and obstacles.
For the mother, for the city, and for all the hybrids, the support of the Valkyrie is necessary.
Of course, Aurora is not that great.
She is just for her mother.
In short, it was really like this at the beginning.
That was her idea when she was five years old.
…
At that time, Aurora's goal was to become the "wife behind the successful man".
But later, as she grew up, her understanding of the relationship between men and women became clearer, and she was ashamed to talk about this goal.
The initial utilitarianism gradually faded away with age.
Mayor Montilfarli always told her: The road is her own, and she has to walk on her own feet.
Always thinking about taking shortcuts and relying on others is an immature behavior.
After Aurora understood the truth, she cut off the first half of "the wife behind the successful man", leaving only the second half of "wife".
As long as she is a "wife" who is versatile enough, what does it matter if the "husband" is a waste?
Yes, as long as she becomes such a "wife", it will be fine.
Aurora has habitually put herself in the role of "wife".
Although the two are not actually engaged, and have not even met since they grew up.
But now she has the confidence to support any "husband".
…
"No problem, Aurora."
Aurora looked at the "husband" in the mirror and encouraged herself a little in her heart, come on!
…
St. Marian College.
Open-air duel hall.
Dark Dimon didn't know that he was being watched.
After all, the Valkyrie would never mention that matter except for occasional jokes.
He was a heartless person before, and would not pay attention to a few words.
So he had no impression of the so-called "child marriage".
But even if he knew, he would not change his mind.
The so-called "fiancée" was a popular character in the original game.
But it had nothing to do with him now.
Even if they met in the future, it would be after they met.
He used his greatest efforts to deal with the "Demon Bloodline", and hoped to do whatever he wanted in other parts.
"It's about to start!"
As all 132 contestants stood in their positions.
The atmosphere in the venue also gradually changed from the initial joy to solemnity.
No matter what mentality you come here with.
As long as you stand on the field, you will realize that if you still hold the mentality of entertainment at this time, you will not only lose face!
The audience's enthusiasm for the duel competition shocked the first-year students who played for the first time.
The accompaniment of the start of the game was replaced by a tsunami-like shouting.
Being in the audience and being on the field are two completely different experiences.
Some of the first-year students were already trembling with fear because of this.
And Dark Dimon also felt his blood gradually boiling.
Zach Wilson on the commentary table waved his arms vigorously, trying to calm the audience down.
But his aura was clearly not enough to hold the line.
The commentary for the upcoming audition battle will also be a big test for him.
He had no choice but to shout with all his strength amidst the shouting: "Under the spotlight, our players have already taken their positions. Whether they are first-year students who have just entered the battle or experienced third-year students, they all Standing on the same field and praising the new duel mode, I would like to say hello to all the viewers on their behalf, Happy Easter!”
"happy Easter!"
Although there were not many, some people responded to Wilson's call piecemeal, and the blessings mixed in the calls made Wilson quietly wipe his sweat.
"Happy P!"
But some people took the opportunity to curse.
Angus Jeffrey, the president of the Noble History Research Society, was gnashing his teeth in the ring. He even roared in the crowd: "Fuck him to death!"
Several members of the Noble History Research Society in the arena seemed to have glanced in his direction consciously, some casually, and some with clear eyes.
Since the failure of Valentine's Day, third-year Mike Owen has gradually declined from Jeffrey's confidant to a marginal figure, so naturally there is a vacancy around Jeffrey.
No matter what the idea is, if he can replace Mike Owen's position and become Jeffrey's confidant, it will be beneficial in the short term.
As for the long term…
Who is doing long-term investing these days?
In short, no matter how chaotic the audition is, no one will think it is wrong.
Then take the opportunity to cause chaos.
There were three students in the second grade and two in the third grade who paid more attention to Jeffrey's proposal.
And the one closer to Dake...
No. 74, sophomore.
There were only two people separated from Dak.
Second-year House of Nobles, Origo Luther!
The Ruther family is just a little-known family in the kingdom.
Its patriarch is only a baron.
But they have a vast barony - albeit mostly wasteland.
But recently the minerals appear to have been mined.
As a result, Oligo Luther reluctantly squeezed into the Noble History Research Society. This was an opportunity for him to reach the upper echelon, and he was trying to seize it.
For marginal nobles, if they can reach the upper echelon, it is an important way to improve their lintel.
The advice and opportunities available to people on the upper rung and those on the lower rung are completely different.
This is the same in aristocratic circles.
What's more, the only capital owned by the Ruther family - a lot of land - is becoming worthless.
With the acceleration of urban construction, human beings are passing through the early stage of "everything is in waste".
I believe that in the near future, humans will begin to develop and reuse the demon territory.
As an outpost, the City of Freedom will also become a battleground.
"Sun Warrior." Suna Montilfari has indeed built a promising home for hybrids.
…
In short, for the benefit of himself and his family, Oligo Luthor is trying to find a way to stumble Dark Dimon.
As for why not just surrender to the Duke's son?
On the one hand, it was because he had no way to surrender, and on the other hand, he had already joined the Noble History Research Society.
People's vision is usually blocked by their environment.
If he is in the Noble History Research Society but his heart is open to outsiders, he may not have to take the next step.
But how to trip up Dark Dimon?
If he targets it too deliberately, will he be misunderstood that he has an opinion against the Duke's Palace?
If I attack him too hard, will I offend the Duke's son and be retaliated against in private?
The Ruther family could not bear even a hint of the Duke's wrath.
As a minor nobleman, it was really difficult for Ruther.
He was stressed out.
…
As the game is about to begin.
Dark Dimon took out two magic cards from the card bag and held them in his hand.
There are no rules in the audition battle, except that you can't start summoning before the game starts, you can do whatever you want.
So he directly took out "Cage: Imp" and "Pride III".
