＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Rejecting the offer of a high-level mage from Barrett to join the guild, Lunaris returns to the Duke's Palace.

Although there are many perks that you can enjoy by joining a guild, such as free magic materials, perks...... But there are also a lot of obligations to fulfill, and the affairs of the temple are enough to annoy her, and she will have to go crazy with a tight spell.

For some reason, perhaps because he was ashamed of his granddaughter, Duke Warren only sent a maid through the countess to inform Moon Shadow that her coming-of-age ceremony would begin the next day, and it was not until the next day that Moon Shadow saw the Duke and her father at the coming-of-age ceremony, and the latter's face did not seem to be very good, and his spirit was a little sluggish.

She glanced around, most people didn't know her, Albert had already arrived, and was laughing with a woman in the family on her legs without any image, and when she noticed her gaze, she beckoned and said hello, not far from Albert, it was the cousin Koster, who was staring at her with a vicious gaze at this time, and when he saw her gaze turned, he lowered his head as if nothing happened, as for the others...... Moon Shadow is mostly unrecognizable, and for a person who is often away from home, this situation is unavoidable.

According to the requirements of the aristocratic coming-of-age ceremony, not only the whole family must join, but the ceremony also has to go through many procedures, among which is to receive religious baptism.

Because the Dresses Empire revered the goddess of life, the family invited the priests of the Temple of Life.

Although Lunara was a student of High Priest Mina, she had not been baptized by the Temple of Life, and her identity as another 'saint' had not been officially revealed, so there was nothing wrong with taking this opportunity to be baptized - wasn't it just a formality.

However, there are two things that have surprised the people of the Warren family today -

Although they knew that the Archmage was very strong, everyone did not expect that Moon Shadow was already an intermediate mage, after all, she had been with the Archmage for less than a year (despite this, they still believed that the nightmare was a gift from the Archmage to his disciples).

Another thing is the attitude of the temple, in previous years, a high-ranking priest was sent casually, but this year it was the high priest of Serena who came in person, which shows that the temple's attention to the family has reached a very high level, even Duke Warren is excited.

After bathing in the light, the baptism is over, and now comes the final procedure for the distribution of the territory, and the high priest of Serena, as a religious person, voluntarily withdraws, showing a detached position of not intervening in secular affairs. However, when she leaves, she has a message to Moon Shadow asking her to make sure she makes a visit to the temple after the coming-of-age ceremony.

In the hall of the coming-of-age ceremony, a huge map hung with red lines marking all the fiefdoms of the Warren family.

Duke Warren slapped Moon Shadow on the forehead with the scepter in his hand, and then announced in a solemn voice, "I, Parn. Warren, as the patriarch of the contemporary Warren family, was appointed by the family presbyterian church to give you Hawaii Island as a territory, are you willing to bear the tax obligations of the territory and the obligation to revitalize the Warren family? ”

"I do."

Moon Shadow smiled and raised her head: "May I ask the patriarch, there is one thing I want to know, as far as I know, Hawaii Island is an uninhabited natural island, who does I, the lord without a lord, collect taxes from?" ”

"Ahem," Duke Warren's old face turned slightly red, he coughed dryly, and pointed to the coastline near Hawaii Island on the map: "Of course the family has considered this issue, Soentoke is the closest town to Hawaii Island, and the family has decided to make it part of the territory of Hawaii Island, and it needs to pay a tax of forty thousand gold coins every year, but,"

The duke's tone changed: "You can refuse to accept this territory, the family will give you another fee, and many family members do this." If you accept the territory, you must stay in the territory for at least half a year or else the family will have the right to reclaim the territory. ”

"No, I accept it."

The corners of Moon Shadow's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a sweetest smile.

An imperceptible look of disappointment quickly crossed the old duke's face, and he glanced at Count Warren, who drooped his eyelids unconsciously.

"Father, I have one thing."

Allison, Moon Shadow's fourth uncle, stepped forward, his eyes looking at Moon Shadow with a hint of hatred.

"What's the matter?"

Duke Warren was in a bad mood, and his tone was a little impatient.

"Father, according to the rules of the family, all the property belonging to the family must be managed by the family, Coster found out some time ago that a Lumingchun hotel on College Street was opened by Alice, but when Coster was ordered to take over the hotel, he was treated rudely and was injured by Alice's servant again."

"Is there such a thing?"

The old duke's face sank like water, and he seemed to have caught a breakthrough.

"On orders? At my hotel, who is Cousin Coster on his orders? Moon Shadow asked rhetorically, "Is there such a thing as molesting the hotel manager in the order?" ”

"According to the rules of the family, members of the family can not only enjoy the rights granted by the family before they set up their own doors, but also must fulfill their obligations to the family, and the hotel you opened before you obtained the territory should be owned by the family, as for 'that thing'...... It's a complete misunderstanding! Erilin replied through gritted teeth.

"Dear uncle, I completely agree with you that rights and duties are exactly equal." The smile on Moon Shadow's face did not change at all: "But, where is my right?" The tuition fee for going to the Demon Martial Arts Academy is solved by myself, and all the expenses for opening a hotel are also paid by me, and each member of the family has a monthly rule, you go to check the account, have you ever paid me a copper coin? ”

She turned to Duke Warren again and said, "Grandpa, I can understand that I didn't pay my monthly bill and tuition, so I found a way to earn money by myself; If the family is really difficult, I can also hand over Lu Mingchun. ”

The coming-of-age ceremony of any family is very solemn, not only for all members of the immediate line, but also for the side line...... Even people who have a close relationship with the family may be invited.

College Street is also a famous place to sell gold, those students are the sons of gold, after Lu Mingchun opened, it was soon welcomed by the students, these students are live advertisements, now Treston has no one knows Lu Mingchun on College Street, with 'daily gold' to describe Lu Mingchun's income is not too much, I heard that the owner behind this restaurant turned out to be the young daughter of Earl Warren, and the guests all whispered.

It is very easy to confirm the facts, the old duke couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, after colluding with the family elders, he coughed dryly and said: "Cough, Alice, after the resolution of the family elders' council, the Lumingchun Hotel is your private property and will not be included in the family property. ”

"Father-"

Allison was a little unconvinced, most of the family business was taken care of by him, and Lu Mingchun's fat meat was not moved by him.

Duke Warren glared at him fiercely: "Regarding the matter of Koster, I believe it is a misunderstanding, and this matter ends here." ”
