Chapter 1787 Unfulfilled Promise

"Erich! You...you promised to marry me!"

Perhaps it was because the blow of being ignored by the one he loved was too great, and De Quinn, who had been silent for a long time and stunned for a long time, suddenly broke out.

And it was her almost thoughtless words that finally broke Erich's defenses completely, making it difficult for him to maintain his superficial calm.

He looked at De Quinn who stood up suddenly and looked directly at him, and was a little lost for a while.

Yes, of course Erich still remembers that at the LeMay Fountain in Beauxbatons, it was he who personally told De Quinn his promise to enter the marriage hall together. And he even remembered how shy and charming the beautiful De Quinn was at that time.

However, it turns out that although some old-fashioned stories are clichés, it is precisely because they are constantly being staged in this world in almost every era.

Erich knew this at the beginning. He knew that those old stubborn people in the family who only had the supremacy of pure blood and power would definitely not agree to marry De Quinn. Not only can she not marry, but even if those elders find out that she is with De Quinn, the latter may be in danger of life.

Because in the paranoid thinking of those old guys, any in-depth communication between him and De Quinn would tarnish the "pure blood" of their Brandt family.

Hmph, sometimes Erich doubts whether he is considered a "human" when he was born in this family, and he only cares about the purity of his blood in everything... Isn't this the breeding of animals?

Therefore, when Erich decided not to marry Feide Quinn, he actually planned to fight the entire Brandt family to the end.

That's right, Erich is an astonishingly gifted magical genius, and he also knows that he has magical power beyond the reach of ordinary people. He grew up and improved all the way. He had already reached the level of an ordinary graduate in the fourth grade. When he graduated from Beauxbatons, he was even better than the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic.

But what he didn't expect was that it was good that he was talented, and he could even be called a genius wizard. However, his "genius" is far from enough to make everyone in the Brandt family shut up.

In fact, his uncle was Erich's uncle who took the initiative to stop the two of them halfway. He was not a good person, but Erich loved his little nephew very much since he was a child. In order to prevent Erich from being punished, and at the same time to prevent Erich from being too sad, he brought someone out and sent De Quinn back home.

If some old guy from the family came out instead, De Quinn would have been exposed to the wilderness back then!

For this reason, Erich, who was young and angry at the time, didn't understand his uncle's kindness, and couldn't help but fight when the other party ordered someone to send De Quinn away.

After he was defeated by his uncle, he realized that the strength that he had been sought after since he was a child was not at home at all... even his uncle alone could make him completely defeated, let alone those more powerful members of the family... Older generation.

At the same time, the uncle, who personally frustrated his nephew's vigor, sat down and had a good chat with Erich.

Erich still clearly remembers a sentence said by the other party:

"Erich, I don't want you to forget that girl, but you have to remember that if you don't let go, she will die sooner or later, and your persistence will eventually become the only cause of her death. And you... ...At least the current you, it is absolutely impossible to keep her. "

After all, Erich was persuaded, the kind that refused to accept.

To this day, he is still working hard, looking forward to the day when he becomes the head of the Brandt family. He naturally knew that De Quinn had never been married, just like him, so he still didn't give up.

Unfortunately,

The old head of the Brandt family, Erich's grandfather, lived surprisingly long and healthy, and he still sits firmly on the throne for decades.

Obviously, even his father, who was the most capable in the previous generation, has not yet been able to become the head of the family, so when will he be able to take his turn?

"...Emily."

For a moment, Erich subconsciously called out Ms. De Quin's name, and he was immersed in the sad memory, as if he had changed back to the young man he was when he was young.

However, he couldn't help himself that year, and his current situation has not changed.

"Master."

Suddenly, a cold voice broke in. The voice seemed to be accompanied by the cold temperature in the ice cellar, which made Ms. De Quin shiver, and at the same time woke up Erich in a trance.

"Master, so... is this Miss Emily DeQuinn?"

"No, she's not! You heard me wrong, she's not, she has nothing to do with me, it's just that she was talking crazy there just now!"

"Well, is it? But...Young master, although I am old, I am not stupid."

Before the words finished, a figure slowly walked out from the corner of the living room. Yes, it was the corner where Hermione had noticed the change before.

"Sure enough, it's someone from the Erich family."

Hermione frowned slightly as she watched the old wizard in a gray robe pacing towards him.

This old man is not simple at first glance. His expressionless cold face, his calm posture with slightly lowered eyelids, and his habitual movements as if he is holding the handle of the wand in his sleeve all show that he has been trained in actual combat. Practiced in the past.

"Master, since you have nothing to do with her, why do you still protect her?"

When Hermione heard the other party's words, she turned her head slightly and looked towards Erich. Sure enough, at this moment, the other party had already occupied the front of Ms. De Quin, and used his body to block between her and the old man.

And Hermione even found that Erich seemed to be unable to hold back and wanted to touch his waist, but gave up this kind of action time and time again.

"This... isn't this worried that you will do it at will, I know your temper very well!" Erich pursed his lips and forced himself to calm down, "You know, this lady is The Minister of Magic of Belgium, you must not be rude, you should go back quickly!"

"Belgium?"

The old man shook his head after hearing the words, obviously disdainful of the name. But after a short pause, he still said calmly:

"Also... I'm sorry everyone, I was rude. But, young master, it should be fine to do something to you, right? You know, you are making mistakes, and I have to take you back to the family to accept the punishment of the Patriarch... ...This is a family matter of my Brandt family, so I won't bother you to intervene."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man got up again, and actually pulled out his wand from his sleeve and walked towards Erich step by step.

"Master, please don't resist. This is an unwise behavior. The Patriarch loves you very much. I believe you will not be punished too severely. Don't worry!"

Erich looked at the other party, hesitated for a moment, and finally closed his eyes.
