Nicholas Alex Jacott. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This guest from the empire with a lengthy surname may not be noble, but knowing his current position through his identity, even in a place where the imperial capital is overflowing with nobles, he also has a position where the head of the second-tier family of the empire must be in awe and cautious when he sees him, because he is one of the few housekeepers of Constantine's family, and considering that he is only 35 years old this year, he has always been deeply relied on and trusted by the old Duke of Constantine, it is not difficult to imagine his special status in the imperial capital, it can be said that sometimes when he appears on a specific occasion, Nicholas himself can represent the old Duke of Constantine to a certain extent。

It was such a special guest who appeared in the wasteland without warning, and rushed to Alfred Castle, which was in a sensitive situation at the moment.

The crisis and trouble brought by Christopher can only be put aside for the time being, when Augustus appeared in front of the castle to greet this guest for the first time, His Royal Highness Sophia, the little princess of Constantine, had already arrived, and then when Augustus walked up to Sophia, smiled and greeted Nicholas, who had a feminine appearance, Sophia asked Nicholas why he came to the wasteland.

Wearing a crisp tuxedo, the rush along the way could not make this middle-aged man who always wore a warm smile mentally exhausted.

He bowed down and smiled: "My arrival is on the instructions of the Duke, if Your Highness does not object, from today onwards, I will be your exclusive personal butler." ”

Sophia was stunned.

Even Augustus was amazed.

Although his knowledge of this world is still superficial, he must know that there has always been an unwritten tradition in the circle of the first-tier nobles of the Holy Empire, that once the parent personally appoints a personal butler for one of his heirs, it means that the heir is automatically qualified to inherit the family steering wheel in the first order, which is really a glorious and shocking event, especially for the huge Imperial Bank Constantine family.

But at the same time, this was undoubtedly too sudden an event to mention Augustus, and even Sophia, who had not received any clues from the Mass before, could hardly react.

She quickly asked, "Is anyone out?"

Nicholas bowed down again, as if the smile itself merged with him: "Young Master Lance died suddenly half a month ago. ”

This is the cruelty of the big family fighting for inheritance, you know, it is definitely not an easy thing to successfully control a huge family to move forward steadily, and the amazing talent and ability that the helmsman must have in all aspects is particularly important in itself, so survival of the fittest is often the main theme of the struggle for inheritance in the big family, and only this way can the most suitable parents be screened out.

Sudden death?

What a subtle crown conclusion.

Sophia pursed her lips tightly and didn't say anything more.

Augustus on the side had a gradually complicated look in his eyes, and subconsciously distanced himself from Sophia that was difficult to detect.

He knew that since the arrival of Sophia's personal butler appointed by the old Duke of Constantine, Sophia is no longer a little princess of Constantine in the simple sense, and she is also the likely successor of the huge Constantine family in the future - there are usually 6 heirs in the first order of the first-line big family, that is to say, Sophia already has a 1/6 chance to become the helm of Constantine. For a bloated family with a total number of heirs such as the outer lineage, which will definitely not be lower than double digits, can this probability be considered low?

Although it cannot be denied, this is not a low chance, which also means that Sophia may face a high probability of danger next.

"I don't know why my grandfather made this decision, but I remember telling the damned Frodo very well that I don't need the so-called inheritance. ”

Sophia, who finally spoke, spoke in a calm tone, but without warmth.

What Augustus would not have known was that the damned Frodo she spoke of was Sophia's father.

Nicholas smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry Your Highness, this is not something I should think about, this is your grandfather's decision." ”

......

At this point, Augustus could not afford to hear too much about these internal affairs of Constantine, and he subconsciously smiled and naturally prevented Sophia from speaking again, so that he did not notice that Sophia's obedience to him made Nicholas's expression slightly amused, and then welcomed the guest to Alfred's castle, Augustus knew that Sophia must still have many questions to ask, so he arranged a separate room for her and her personal butler to communicate, and he gave the servants the necessary work such as tea and snacks, and left directly。

The more he walked, the more complicated his expression became.

It is impossible to joke with the clever little princess Constantine as she did in the past.

What is his identity, he is just a sinner in the wasteland, and Sophia's identity is already one of the heirs of the first order of Constantine.

How long does it take to get from his world to her world?

Can you get there?

Bitterly putting aside these difficult thoughts in his mind, Augustus, who turned back to the study, tried not to think about this sudden event, because for him, the most important thing at this time can only be about Christopher, since Christopher has declared war and does not dare to attack Alfred on a large scale, then his various dark methods will definitely not stop in the future, and Augustus can only be tired to deal with it.

That's Alfred's biggest embarrassment at the moment.

There is no ability and strength to launch a counterattack at all.

Therefore, with this in mind, Augustus dug up all the information of the castle's servants and retinue that the old butler had compiled for him, and in any case, the maid's sneak attack like the night before must be avoided as much as possible, and he must also try to clean up the nails that Christopher had planted in Alfred's castle in the past years.

But how easy it is, after all, decades have passed.

Looking at these unfamiliar names with a headache, Augustus finally found that he couldn't find a good way to face Christopher's unscrupulous means after completely giving up his honorable status.

He frowned and pondered.

However, what comes to mind is Sophia's coldness and arrogance at the beginning, the pride and tears of her time in Loraine Town, and then her smile and brightness.

How can you say that you don't want to think about it.

Especially when he thought of the starry light on Alfred's Lawn that night, it was impossible for him to be quiet and consider what he should have considered.

He silently picked up the quill in front of him, and sat there in a daze, his eyes blank.

Then, because of the injury to his arm, he could no longer write with force, and the handwriting on the paper was extremely sloppy and difficult to read.

"Goodbye, Sophia. ”
