Chapter 144: Rival (I)

The Draal family was originally just a vassal nobleman in Hertfordshire, and Wallachia, as the head of the Draal family, had a close relationship with Ektor, and through many marriage proposals and requests, he was able to facilitate the marriage of his son Giroud, who was still a minor at the time, and Aktor's daughter Cailu.

However, the relationship lasted less than two years before it was completely shattered.

Ten years ago, when Rome attacked Britain, Ector chose to prioritize the relocation of his subjects to safety, and he ordered Wallachia, the lord of Dral, the lord of St. Albans, the large city of Hertfordshire, to follow his arrangement and accept and settle the displaced refugees. However, Wallachia disobeyed Ector's orders, leaving behind tens of thousands of people who needed to be relocated and refuge, and also abandoned the cities that needed to be garrisoned, and led 600 soldiers from the city to support King Yusher, which was appreciated by King Yusher.

And not only that, after his meeting with King Yusher, he also slandered Kayilu's father, Ektor, saying that he intended to harm the king and had the idea of rebellion, although King Uther did not fully believe his words, but his statement undoubtedly had a great influence on the content of King Yuse's later judgment on Ektor.

Because, after King Uther stripped Hertfordshire of his dominion from Ector, he gave it to the House of Dral!

Wallachia was also added.

The Wallachian Viscount became the Wallachian Count!

This is two levels higher than Ektor after the relegation.

When Ector led half of his people to move to the Isle of Wight, where there was nothing, Wallachia held a feast in the realm to entertain the nobles and nobles of the county, and not only did he have no intention of sending troops to protect the people who were forced to leave the territory, but he was also said to have mocked Ektor for his ignorance.

However, Ector forgave him, believing that this was a punishment he deserved for not putting the monarch first, so after building the lord's palace on the Isle of Wight and settling the lords, he even sent a letter inviting Wallachia to come to the territory as a guest.

Wallachia, who received the letter, was so mad that he ignored Ector's friendliness and instead regarded it as a provocation, and Ector still considered himself his subordinate! Wallachia replied with a letter in which he said nothing about the matter, but instead invited Ector to a large ball of nobles in the realm.

When Ektor saw the letter, he thought that the other party was willing to befriend him.

So I was invited.

On that day, Cailu followed, and at the aristocratic ball, which was attended by all the dignitaries of the palace, Wallachia proposed to Ector in front of everyone the decision to dissolve the marriage contract between the two families, and announced that the two families would break off their relations from now on.

This caused a sensation at the time, and it also made Ector lose face.

After that, Ector was largely absent from the nobility of Britain.

Kayilu was furious about this.

Although she herself was very resistant to her father's marriage contract for herself, she saw his father's face as if he was more than twenty years old, and heard the words of the local nobles who despised his father, and a feeling of anger ignited in her young heart.

She couldn't forgive the Draal family, they not only took away the territory that belonged to their family, but also insulted their father, how could the family who did such a thing be safe and secure and not be punished in any way?

Therefore, she decided that if one day she could get the chance, she would definitely take back the family territory with her own hands, even if it was unscrupulous, to give the shameless Draal family a resounding slap in the face.

……

"That's rude."

Giroud stood up, bowed to his chest and turned to leave.

He had a smile of superiority and plenty on his face, as if he had already won the battle.

Just as he was about to reach the door of the hall, he realized a cold gaze from Kayiru.

The young man looked at the girl who was glaring at him fiercely, and a look of confusion appeared on his face, then to surprise.

"Are you...... Oh, Ektor's. ”

He seemed to recognize the girl, too.

"Long time no see. The last time we met, it was seven years ago. Giroud smiled.

“…… Hehe, hello. Kayi replied with a non-smirk.

Olivier Giroud. Draal, in a way, is Kayilu's childhood sweetheart.

Although Kayilu had been engaged to him, she didn't have any good feelings for him, and even if she left him behind the fact that the other party was from the Draal family, she still didn't like him.

Because, she knows how bad this man's nature is.

Kayilu remembered that when she first met Giroud ten years ago, the arrogant attitude of the other party who did not treat her as a human being made her unhappy.

Obviously, the status of the family is lower than his own, and he pretends to be as if he is the illegitimate son of King Yuse, and wants to swear loyalty to him and serve him in his diet and daily life, and treat himself completely as a maid.

Because it was so unpleasant to see him, so he beat him without saying a word, because his body was not developed at that time, and he couldn't take any advantage, so he only had a tie with him, Kayilu thought that this matter was over, but this guy actually brought a few children to help the next day, but fortunately, the guards at home saw it and stopped it in time, otherwise Kayilu would have really broken a few teeth.

Of course, if it develops to that point, this guy's lifeline will not be saved.

Although Kayilu's boxing skills were poor at that time, she was still quite confident in her kicking skills.

"How did you get here?" Giroud asked.

"Of course the purpose is the same as you." Kayilu said without hesitation.

"Like me?" Giroud blinked, as if he had heard something incredible, "What an interesting joke." ”

Kidding you.

Kairu almost scolded.

But she endured it, because as a nobleman, Kayilu knew that she had to maintain basic etiquette, after all, nobles were highly educated and upper-class. Scolding will only show that your grade is very low, even if you want to ridicule the other party, you must be more subtle.

Yes, as long as you are subtle, you can mock.

"Hehe, you're kidding. If a little woman wants to participate in the king's election, it is much more realistic than a yellow-haired person who has not yet been knighted holding a broken sword and claiming to be modest while pretending to be forced. Ahaha, silly fork. A charming smile tugged at the corner of Kayilu's mouth.

"Huh?" Giroud frowned.

Ah, too bad, it's still foul language.

Kayilu broke out in a cold sweat.

Speaking of which, judging by the other party's character, he must be angry.

If you don't get it, you'll have to fight.

As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes, Cailu just heard the conversation between Giroud and Mark, and knew that his strength might not be as good as Giroud, but what does it matter? Fighting depends on momentum! It's a big deal to say that he bullies women, how can he lose?

Wait, take a closer look, he seems to have six guards behind him? Among them are women too?
