There are many nobles in the Duchy of Galea, who control the upper classes of the Duchy, who hold power, and are the real masters of the country.

Decline, rejuvenation, and strength, every year there is the decline of the family, and there is also the rise of the nobility like the newborn sun. How to maintain the interests and status of their own family has become something that every family must consider.

Naturally, in order to safeguard their own interests, the nobles have communication with each other, and with communication, a circle will be formed, and the nobles in this circle will not say that the relationship will be iron enough to wear a pair of pants, but they will also stand on the same front for their own interests. Everyone cooperates within the circle and obtains benefits.

And this kind of interest is not limited to money, sometimes it will be a political or even military bargaining chip, everyone takes what they need, develops together, and strengthens their own family and power.

Every circle has a threshold for each circle, and it is difficult for the weak to break into the high-level circles unless they have special resources in their hands.

So, is there a better way to break into a certain circle quickly?

The answer is, yes.

Marriage is a good way to strengthen ties between families, enhance relationships, and unite the front through marriage. For example, a weak family marries a noble lady from a strong family, or on the contrary, the strong can gain some chips from the weak, and the weak can also get some resources from the strong.

In short, marriage is definitely a good way to increase your strength.

That's what Dylan had in mind. His own talent in swordsmanship can be said to be at the top level even in the entire continent, and at the age of sixteen, he passed the silver-level assessment of the adventurer's union, although this does not mean that he is a silver-level adventurer, but at least it shows that his strength is comparable to those adventurers who are still hovering at the silver level in their twenties or even thirties.

Now, everyone in the Duchy knows that in addition to Ophelia of Galea, he Dilan Nande Bathory is also a genius like no other, and he has the teachings of his teacher Audrey Tanlian, those nobles believe that he has a good chance of becoming a platinum!

It's just a possibility. Although those nobles were optimistic about his talent and were getting closer to the Bathory family, they only kept it within a certain range. They are willing to invest in the future, but they are also driven by risk.

Of course, Dylan knew that he was very talented in swordsmanship, otherwise he would not be favored by one of the former candidates for the Sword Master, and he believed that sooner or later, he would also become a platinum, and possibly even surpass his teacher.

Because of this, his state of mind changed.

As a platinum candidate, he enjoys the admiration of others, the compliments of others, and the flattery and flattery of others. Of course, Dylan has this qualification, and the age of sixteen and the silver level are the best proof of this. And he has long begun to regard himself as a future platinum level, after all, confidence is a necessary condition for the road to the strong.

And with the change of his mood, the young ladies of the usual big aristocratic families were not so unattainable in his opinion. No, it should be said, it's them who stammered themselves! Therefore, for the future wife, his vision is no longer limited to those vulgar fans.

They're pretty and beautiful, but so what? Are there different prostitutes on the side of the road, but also a golden phoenix that can make countless men crazy?

So, he set his sights higher. Well, there is only one choice.

Ophelia Setika Ratniat.

As the daughter of the Grand Duke of Galea, Ophelia is not only a princess of the Duchy of Galea, but also an unprecedented genius! Her talent for swordsmanship allowed her to become the youngest silver-level adventurer ever at the age of fifteen, and her magical attainments had reached the middle level, and it was rumored that Ophelia's magic was about to enter the advanced realm.

High! That's an adventurer comparable to the iron level! Magicians of this level, except for geniuses, are all middle-aged and elderly people with thinning hair and almost reflective heads!

It can be said that she is the sun hanging over Galea, dazzling, noble and attractive like Amitya, Vicelan, and Oron (the three moons of Alam). Countless young talents want to kiss Fangze, but unfortunately, with their status, they may not even be able to see Ophelia's back.

But!

He, Dilan Nande Bathory, is different. Not only is he a rare genius in swordsmanship, but he is also a student of the prestigious platinum-level swordsman Audrey Tanlyan! And his family, Bathory, is also a noble family with the title of count! Although there has been some decline in recent years, there is no way that Bathory will not return to glory and even step on a higher peak!

In this case, if he can marry Her Royal Highness the Princess of Galea, then his Bathory family will become the fourth largest family in Galea, and he Dilan Nande Bathory, even if he is not platinum now, his identity and status will far exceed before!

What's more, Ophelia is what he dreamed of getting his hands on. She is young and beautiful, with an outstanding temperament, far from being comparable to ordinary aristocratic girls, and the most dazzling genius and the identity of Princess Galea are even more unclimbable mountains, blocking Dilan's face.

As early as when he was a child, at that glance in the palace, the fiery figure had already left a deep imprint in his heart, and he could only look up to her at that time.

And now, I have that qualification, that qualification, to conquer this peak!

"You want the teacher to take Ophelia as a student?" Audri took a sip of black tea, a hint of surprise flashing in his cloudy eyes.

"Yes, teacher, Ophelia's swordsmanship talent is still above Dilan's, and her former teacher is no longer able to teach her and has resigned. Some time ago, it was reported that Ophelia was visiting the master of swordsmanship, probably because she wanted to learn from him. In the eyes of students, a genius like Ophelia can only be taught by a teacher. Audrey's expression was naturally noticed, and he immediately said the prepared speech, which made Audri feel relieved.

And Audri has his own plans.

That Nizi's talent is indeed good, even higher than that of Dilan. He had a desire to take her as a student, and he had also gone to Archduke Kenther, who by then already had a teacher; After that, the teacher was afraid of delaying Ophelia, so he didn't continue teaching, and Audrey went to Kense, who didn't refuse, but didn't agree, saying that Ophelia would decide for herself, but Ophelia had already gone out to practice at that time, and it was said that she went to Contesino. Later, he went to the Eastern Continent because he had to solve some things personally, so the matter was over.

Of course, Audri knew what he was thinking as a precious student, nothing more than wanting to use himself as a teacher to get closer to Ratnit, and at the same time, he could also get close to the princess of the principality.

But Audri didn't care, he had the plan to do so. It's better to say that if it weren't for the lack of conditions, Audri would have wanted to go and kiss Dilan.

After a little thought, Audri made up his mind:

"Okay, I'll leave that to the teacher. When the time comes, the teacher will take you with you, and it's up to you how to play. ”

"Thank you, teacher!"
