Chapter 0034: Hector
Aldington met his uncle, Hector Eagle, six days after his awakening.
Thirty-five years old is not too old, with pale blonde hair like Aldington, and a striking hooked nose.
Because his maternal grandfather, the Earl of Helrington, was still alive, Hector could only temporarily bear the title of viscount.
"Old lady Carly, it's a pleasure to meet you, your body is still so strong and healthy."
"I think I'll live a long time, Hectert, is your mother okay?"
"My mother is in good health, and my father and mother have asked me to bring you a greeting."
"Thank you for the greetings from the Earl and Lady." Carly and Hector hugged softly.
Immediately, Hector looked at Baron Aurenor and gave him a heavy hug directly: "Aurenor, we haven't hunted together for a long time, are you ready for the wine of Butterfly Castle?" "Before, he was full of aristocratic temperament, but now he has changed to a ruffian temperament.
"I can drink as much as you want, Golden Rum."
"Kim Rum can't do it, I want Bartini, I know you must have Bartini in your cellar." Hector said with a smile.
Batini is a stronger distilled spirit than Golden Rum, and the raw materials are very high-end, and the taste and price are far higher than that of Golden Rum.
Baron Aureno shook his head: "Well, Bartini, you always keep an eye on my Bartini. ”
Hector hugged Lady Helena again: "Helena, my sister, you still look so beautiful and moving, and the warm climate of Red Leaf Town is really nourishing. ”
Then came Aldington.
"Uncle." Aldington put on a smile.
Hector directly hugged him up: "Haha, I know your news, Aldington, trainee knight, uh-huh, sixteen years old, not too late, not too late, future phantom beast knight." "Compared to Hector who only cultivated his fighting spirit at the age of eighteen and is still hovering at the elite knight level, it is indeed not too late for a sixteen-year-old trainee knight.
"Evelyn, why didn't she come with you?" Lady Helena inquired that Evelyn was Hectert's wife and a nobleman.
The corners of Hectert's mouth turned up: "Her body is a little uncomfortable...... If nothing else, you're going to have an extra nephew. ”
"Yes, great, this is the first boy you contributed to the Eagle Strike Sky Family, I have to admit that although you have a very poor talent and always disappoint your father, in terms of family reproduction, it is finally satisfactory." Helena dragged Hector back into the living room.
Giving birth to a son is as important to an aristocratic family as it is to cultivation.
Previously, Hector had given birth to two children, but both were girls and destined to marry into other noble families, so a male heir was the most urgent need of the Eagle Strike Sky family.
"Didn't the two cousins come over?" Aldington asked casually.
"Hetty and Hanny are both attending classes at the Female College of Versailles, and it's not easy for them to get back from Versailles."
The College of Versailles was an aristocratic school that taught female nobles how to manage their fiefs and castles and become their husbands' helpers. Lady Helena, as well as Aldington's sister Audrey, both attended the College of Versailles and were well versed in territorial affairs.
The family sat down in the living room, and the servant brought tea and chatted casually.
Hector asked, "Sister, is there anything you wrote to invite me to Butterfly Castle?" "According to the rules of previous years, he usually comes once in summer and once in winter, but now it is spring, and there is still more than a month before summer.
"Of course, there is good news that I want to share with you."
"Oh, what's the good news?"
Lady Helena pointed to Aldington, who was not very vocal and said, "Your nephew is good news." ”
"Huh?" Hector didn't know why, "Of course I knew about Aldington's promotion to Cadet Knight, you had written to me a long time ago, but you didn't invite me over that time. ”
Lady Helena smiled but did not answer.
Baron Aureno had no intention of answering, and Old Lady Carly looked at Aldington with pride.
Aldington understood that his mother wanted him to tell Hector personally, and he cleared his throat and said, "Uncle, I am awake. ”
"Huh?"
Hector was puzzled at first, and then shocked with a look on his face: "Really? Are you awakened? Aldington, you're saying you've awakened the power of thunder? ”
A spark of electricity flickered on his fingertips, slightly larger than when he first released.
"Wow, a tiny bolt of lightning, this is really the power of thunder!" Hector exclaimed, then pounced on him and gave Aldington a hard hug, "Aldington, uncle is proud of you, haha, when you were a little pudding for you, I knew you would definitely be promising!" ”
"It's just a small gain, uncle, don't be too surprised." Aldington had a calm expression on his face, "Ji Cao Don't 6".
"It's not a small harvest, it's a big one, haha." Hector laughed, and then complained to Mrs. Helena, "Why didn't my sister make it clear in her letter, my father and mother would be very happy when they heard the news, and besides, the gifts I had prepared were not enough." ”
He motioned to Carson, the butler, to call the manservant who was with him, and said to the manservant, "Go and bring me the gift I brought to Aldington." ”
Then he turned his head to Aldington and smiled: "This is a gift to congratulate you on your promotion to a trainee knight, and I will make up for you the awakening gift when I go back." ”
"The gift is not in a hurry, uncle, the reason why my mother did not inform you in the letter was that I stopped her. My level of awakening is still very weak, so I don't want to celebrate with great fanfare now, and it is not too late to send out invitations and hold a celebration banquet after I have strengthened my power to run thunder. ”
Why is that? Awakening is awakening, why wait for the power of thunder to grow? Hector was puzzled.
"It's not a matter of face yet." Old Lady Carly laughed, "Aldington is a child after all, and he always wants to be in the limelight, and when he thinks of his great-grandfather, when electric sparks can come out of his whole body, he will definitely make a big show...... Understand a child's thoughts. ”
Aldington smiled, seen through.
Hector suddenly realized: "So that's the case, that's right, a cluster of electric sparks is indeed too small, and electric sparks can come out of the whole body, which is shocking enough." ”
said.
After the butler knocked on the door, the valet walked in with a long box.
"Open it, Aldington, and see if you like this gift." Hector said.
"Is it a sword?" Aldington's eyes lit up, as an Imperial Earl, the Eagle Strike Changkong family has strong financial resources, and Hector will definitely not be stingy with his moves.
He opened the box, and suddenly, a one-handed sword that looked a bit like Frost Sorrow, but did not emit blue light, was lying quietly in the box. Picking up this one-handed sword, you can feel that the weight is very heavy, the sword is about one meter three long, the whole body is silver-gray, the cold light is flickering, and the sword body is engraved with a line of letters.
Letters form a word – night cream.
