Charles usually goes home to find a place to climb over the wall and go in unknowingly, but today is broad daylight, and he also met his eldest brother Reed, so he naturally walked through the gate with Reed and Bergman.

When the doorman saw a few people coming, he was about to come forward to ask, but when he saw that it was his own earl, he quickly opened the door, lowered his head and stood carefully on the side, wondering when his master went out, why didn't he see it?

Charles, Reed, and Bergman walked into the hall of the main mansion and said to the maids, "Go and inform the young lady, and say that Master Reed is back!"

The maid hurried upstairs, and after a while she heard a chaotic sound on the stairs, and a little girl in a knight's training uniform ran down with a "kick-and-kick", not at all the same as the old lady.

When Olive ran to the hall, she realized that there was still an outsider present, Bergman, and she quickly adjusted her pace to switch to lady mode, but her excited expression did not relent.

"Reed, we were still talking about you yesterday! I'm afraid you won't be able to come back before the New Year, but it's great that you're back now, we haven't spent the New Year together in years......"

"Olive ...... You've grown ....... taller," Reed was equally excited, looking at Olive with doting eyes, different from the relieved look at Charles.

Every brother loves his sister, especially a fifteen-year-old girl who has been raised to be the head of the family since she was a child, she is forced to learn a lot of things, forced to shoulder too many responsibilities, the same ...... I also lost a lot of childhood fun.

"Reed, when are you coming back? You shouldn't be leaving this time, are you? Charles was still helping you find a suitable position a few days ago! You can pick a position for Nasser in the military department! so that we can always .......be together."

“.........”

"I ...... I don't know where I'm going to work......"

Reed glanced at Charles and was a little puzzled, what do you mean by "you pick a position"? When can the position of the military department also be "picked"?

"Olive I'm hungry, can I eat early today?" Charles saw that Reed was a little restrained, so he helped him resolve some of the embarrassment.

"Okay, I'm a little hungry too, you can sit down first......"

Olive beckoned her maid Caroline to arrange lunch, while she went back to her room to change her clothes, and it was rude for the host to entertain guests in a training suit in the presence of Bergman today.

Reed looked at the sweat stains on the little girl's knight's training uniform, and asked Charles a little unbearably: "Olive Live, she is still ....... Awakening training?"

Charles stretched out his hand and motioned for Reed and Bergman to wait in the dining room, and replied, "Yes, I agreed to Olive Live's request to try to awaken the transcendent, and maybe next year, she will be a transcendent." ”

“........”

The three of them entered the dining room and sat down, and the maid served a small snack and black tea first, but Reed had no intention of tasting it, and Charles saw that he wanted to say something, so he asked, "Reed, what is on your mind?"

Reed looked up at Bergman, who immediately stood up and said, "Lord Earl, may I have the pleasure of visiting your garden?"

Charles smiled, turned back to Roy, the butler who was waiting in the corner of the restaurant, and said, "Take Mr. Bergman to the shooting range, and ask him to help test our new gun!"

Roy, the butler, walked over and politely invited Bergman to go out.

After Bergman and Roy left, Reed asked Charles with some hesitation, "Charr, I remember that you have been opposed to Olive trying to awaken the transcendental, why did you change your mind?" You should know....... That's dangerous......."

Charles sighed, "But that's her right, Reed, since you know that she has been secretly training her body before awakening for so many years, have you ever wondered if Olive will risk herself to find the opportunity to awaken?"

“........”

"Olive has always ....... Very sensible, she should understand the needs of the family......."

"The bullshit family needs, she is herself, she doesn't belong to anyone, she has the right to choose what her life is like, we just need to make sure she's safe enough as much as possible, and make sure she's happy enough........"

"Reed, do you know that Olive actually discussed with me that day and went to the black market to buy spiritual power materials to prepare spiritual power awakening potions, can you understand how dangerous it is?"

"And the other day, Olive said that she was going to find a rich merchant to marry her, do you know why? Don't you think it's a dereliction of duty for us to be an older brother when a sister like Olive can't do what she likes, can't live happily ever after?

“............”

Charles complained irritably, leaving Reed completely stunned, Charles's appearance was completely inconsistent with the thoughts and attitudes that a family leader should have.

The person at the helm of a wealthy family should be calm and ruthless, and every decision must be made in the best interests of the family, even at some point, even if it is to give up the life of the family.

As for the happiness of the children of the nobles, it is basically a luxury, so many noble marriages on the mainland, and how many pairs of dependents are lovers? The reason why the relationship between lovers is so prevalent in the aristocratic circle and the breath is so serious is actually the sequelae and by-products of power transactions.

"Charles, you're mistaken, but I'm actually ...... There's no objection to Olive becoming transcendent, I just think ......... She should wait until she has a reliable apothecary in her family before trying to awaken Olive so that she will be less dangerous. Reed thought for a moment and looked at Charles and said very implicitly.

Charles understood that Reed was talking about this, and when there was a reliable pharmacist in the family, wouldn't this be a reminder to himself that the family did not have a reliable source of spiritual power potion now? After all, the higher the quality of the Awakening Elixir, the greater the success rate, and the Chevalier family's Awakening Elixir formula was a bit special, so it was really inconvenient to find someone to make it.

"Reed, actually...... I'm a pharmacist!"

“............”

"What did you say, Charles?"

Reed wondered if he had misheard, it was amazing enough that his younger brother had suddenly become so handsome, and now he even said that he was a pharmacist? When did he start to make spiritual potions? Three years ago? Five years ago?

He was still like that back then........ It's incredible.

"I said that I am a pharmacist, a month ago I successfully formulated a second-level spiritual power potion, and I have obtained the pharmacist qualification of the Academic Tower, although I am not very sure about the preparation of spiritual power potions for awakening now, but I think it will be a year or two at most. ”

Charles said this a little humble, in fact, he can try to prepare a spiritual power induction potion now, but there is no guarantee that it will reach perfect quality, and he will never tolerate the slightest flaw in Olive Awakening.

"Charles, I really don't know what to say........ I congratulate you!"

Reed was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, and he realized that Charles was too far from what he had imagined.

Reed actually collected some information about Charles through his own channels during this time, and at first he didn't believe the rumors that "Count Bayonne was playing stupid for ten years", but with Charles's sudden soberness, breaking through to become a hunter knight, and public contact with the Prussians, Reed became suspicious of Charles's pretending to be stupid.

When he finally met Charles today, Reed was surprised and delighted to find that his optimistic estimation of his brother had turned out to be all underestimated.

Maybe the charr is not a good family leader, but ...... He is very temperamental about himself.

"Pedaling"

Heavy footsteps hurried closer to the dining-room, and the tall, strong Bergman walked in briskly, looking at Reed, and then at Charles, not knowing who to speak to first.

"Mr. Bergman, are you interested in our new gun?"

"Yes, Lord Earl, can I order twenty large revolvers?" said Bergman, embarrassed.

"Twenty sticks? It seems that you ....... That's a lot of people!"

Charles smiled faintly and leaned back in his chair, waiting for Reed's answer and explanation.
