Chapter 554: The Earl's Troubles

The female knight who has decided to dedicate her life to the god of bravery, Heyronis, always comes to see her former lover regularly, and Cecil doesn't know what to say when she sees Taris, whether it is to comfort him or say anything else, the former identity between them seems a little too embarrassing. Anne was more considerate and took the initiative to comfort Talis.

Talis thanked the two for coming, Darcy was a noble son and had a good relationship. But he has been dead for more than a year, and there are very few people who come to see him, but Cecil is a little ashamed of what she said, Darcy died for himself, but he also came for the first time after his death, although because he went to the north later, but Cecil still had a blush at this time. Talis, on the other hand, said goodbye to the two of them and walked in the direction of the Temple of the Brave.

After bidding farewell to Taris, Cecil was to visit Count Cassikud, whom he had not seen since he had been to the north, and who he should have visited by court. Anne didn't like this kind of relationship, unlike Darcy, Anne herself had no relationship with Count Cassikud, and instead she had some resentment towards Ophelina. Of course, now she doesn't doubt that there is any ambiguity between Ophelina and Cecil, she knows that Ophelina doesn't like Cecil, and she also believes Cecil's feelings for her. So he didn't go with Cecil, but went back to the inn.

Cecil came to Count Casicut's mansion, and more than a year ago, Cecil first arrived at Count Cassikud's mansion, when Cecil was still an unknown gentleman, and now he is a hot celebrity in the kingdom. Count Cassikud has been in trouble recently, his eldest son, Count Guladhoo, has joined the family of Duke Fatam and wants to inherit the status and property of Duke Fatam. Who knows that recently Duke Fatam has another illegitimate son, which makes Duke Fatam pick his nose and raise his eyes on Count Casikud's eldest son, no matter how he looks at it, he wants to find a reason to deprive him of his inheritance, and then transfer everything behind him to his illegitimate son. For this matter, Count Cassikud has been really anxious recently, Duke Fatam is a big celebrity of King Rex, and he has been attacking Count Cassikud in front of the king for the past two days, constantly giving him small shoes to wear.

It is really a bad thing that the backer who used to carry you has suddenly become your enemy, and these days, under the operation of Duke Fatam, Count Kasikud has been reprimanded several times by His Majesty the King. It was a terrible mood, and more importantly, Count Cassikud didn't know what to do next. It's a long sigh in his own mansion all day. Thinking that his son was probably even more uncomfortable with Duke Fatam, but his father, he couldn't help much, Count Cassikud's heart was even more uncomfortable, and the entire Earl's mansion was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

Count Cassikud gave Cecil a warm welcome, and it was the first time that Cecil had been to the Earl's Court so many times that he had been warmly welcomed as a distinguished guest, and although it was fully worthy of his status, he was still a little flattered. After all, he is now a big celebrity for His Majesty, and Count Cassikud is facing the most difficult moment of his life. As soon as Cecil let him into the hall, Count Cassikud chattered to him about his misfortunes, including how the treacherous Duke of Fatam had excluded his father and son, and King Rex's moodiness, which was completely on the side of Duke Fatam, completely ignoring the loyalty of Count Cassikud who stood by his side when few nobles supported him.

Cecil laughed secretly in his heart when he heard this, the reason why Count Cassikud was on Prince Rex's side was entirely because he was a person on the line of Duke Fatham, and King Rex was now grateful to Duke Fatham rather than Count Cassikud himself. With the suffering of Duke Fatam and King Rex, it was not at all surprising that Count Cassikud was struck.

Duke Fatam is indeed a bit treacherous, but ordinary people can also understand that Duke Fatam is almost sixty years old, and he originally thought that he had no son before he let Count Casikud's eldest son become rich, who knew that when he was old, he found that when he was young, he had left a son overnight, which made Duke Fatam feel unhappy? Since the old duke has found his son, he will inevitably do everything possible to leave his title and property rights to his son, how can there be any reason to support his son-in-law? And Count Casikud, who thought that he had locked the inheritance, was of course unwilling to back down, but the situation was stronger than people, and since Count Cassikud was so ignorant of practice, it was not surprising that Duke Fatam would deal with him.

Cecil expressed his opinion on this matter: "At this point, I advise you to endure the pain for a while, and let your eldest son withdraw from the battle for the succession of the Duke of Fatam, if the Duke of Fatham is bent on passing on to his illegitimate son, I am afraid that you will not be able to twist your arms and thighs." ”

But Count Cassikud still disagreed, in fact, in addition to this reason, if Count Cassikud's eldest son quit as the duke's successor, then where would he go and return to Count Cassie's mansion? So what about Yellen, the second son who returned from the Shield Paladins to inherit the family business? Do they still want to be brothers? I am afraid that Count Guladhu is unable to advance or retreat, and it is very embarrassing, which is also an important reason why Count Cassikud is resolutely unwilling to give up, if he gives up, it will really cause immeasurable consequences to himself. However, the Duke of Fatam, who had followed him faithfully for decades, was not considerate of himself at all, and insisted on restraining himself to death.

Cecil also understands that the loss received by Count Cassikud at this time is too great whether it is from interests or emotions, but he still feels that he should back down, after all, although the loss received by retreating is very large, but it can also keep the most basic interests, if Count Cassikud and Duke Fatam continue to fight, then Cecil can't predict what Duke Fatam can do for the sake of his son, who has completely lost his mind. When the time comes, with the help of King Rex, Count Cassikud's entire family will go to the execution ground, and it will be no exception.
