Chapter 0364: The Past

Seeing Kaadis Ferren's gloomy expression, Nock finally believed that this senior was really a friend of the teacher.

"Senior Ferren, don't be sad, the teacher doesn't regret his choice."

Kaadis Ferraine saw Nock, who comforted him, and came out of his grief and restrained his feelings of loss.

"That's right, he's that kind of person, and he never regrets his choice.

Just as he had at the beginning, he ran away from home alone and traveled to the mainland as a wandering priest.

On the contrary, I, fearful, for the sake of the family, shamelessly accepted the help of the Grand Duke,

to become a bishop.

Even this time he came to run for cardinal, it was because of the favor of the Grand Duke.

Originally, I had planned to see you in the Kingdom of France when I became a cardinal.

But I didn't expect you to appear in the Holy Court.

It stands to reason that you shouldn't be in the Kingdom of France right now?

When I heard your name in the Holy Court, I was stunned. It's just that the occasion was too scary at the time.

I don't even dare to recognize you.

Later, I heard that you want to live in the yard where I live, so I will give it to you.

After all, you're John's student. I'm your elder too. ”

Nock wondered, "Senior Ferren, you already knew about my existence?" My business, the Holy Court only announced it yesterday, right? ”

Kaadis Ferrian smiled and explained, "Outsiders, maybe after the announcement of the Holy Court,

I found out about you and John. But I'm not.

Long before the Holy Court wrote to inform the Grand Duke of John's death and your news,

We already know about John's death and your existence.

Even, before the Holy Court found you, the Grand Duke sent someone to the Lionheart Kingdom to find you.

Unfortunately, I got the news that you were missing.

Fortunately, the Holy See, knowing your news and John's death, wrote to inform the Archduke.

That's why I'm running for it.

Of course, don't wonder why the Holy Court wrote to inform the Grand Duke.

Because John was the youngest son of the Grand Duke of the Rhine.

His disappearance, in the realm of the Holy Empire,

It also caused a lot of commotion.

Just because the Grand Duke favored him too much, it was rumored that the Grand Duke wanted to succeed the Duke of John Richmond.

This provoked the displeasure of the Duchess. The Duchess concealed from the Grand Duke and launched various targets against John,

Or even assassination.

John was not born to a duchess, his eldest brother and second brother were the duchess's own sons.

And John, on the other hand, was only the child of the Duke and his cousin.

It is said that the mother of the Duke and John was a childhood sweetheart, but the Grand Duke in order to inherit the title,

had to take the more helpful duchess.

John's mother preferred not to marry and to be a lover to the duke, and after John,

The Grand Duke often went out on official pretexts, which made the Duchess find out about the situation.

John's mother is said to have been killed by burglars. John escaped by hiding in a secret room.

But the Grand Duke has always suspected that the so-called thieves are just a front, and the duchess is behind them.

Therefore, John was raised by the Archduke from a young age with a friend.

And that friend of the Grand Duke was my teacher and John's. ”

Kaadis Ferraine paused and continued: "The Grand Duke loved John very much, even to the point of loving him,

Beyond the concern for John's two brothers. This also directly contributed to the subsequent situation.

When John was sixteen years old, he was brought home by the Grand Duke, and John was officially announced as the third son of the Rhine.

Check in to the Ducal Palace. ”

Kaadis Ferren sighed and continued to recall:

"But Rhine lived an unhappy life, and in the Duke's palace he was targeted by his two older brothers, by the Duchess.

Of course, these were all things that John complained to me in private later, and on the surface, the Duchess cared about John.

even let his two sons take care of John's illegitimate son.

But in private, John's two older brothers were bullying him together, beating him and threatening him when they found an opportunity.

But they forgot that John was already an adult. Oh, forgot to tell you, in our Prussia,

Sixteen years old is already an adult.

Because of this, John, who suddenly moved into the Duke's Palace, was regarded as the Grand Duke's candidate to change the heir.

will be frantically targeted and assassinated by the Duchess.

Faced with the troubles of the Duke's Palace, John chose to escape.

He fled straight back to his teacher's home and spent half a year with me.

But the Duchess didn't want to let John go, so she came directly to the door while the Grand Duke was away on business.

I even felt that if it weren't for the high status of the teacher at that time, coupled with his strong strength,

Maybe it's not the woman, it's a group of killers. ”

Speaking of this, a trace of resentment flashed across Kaadis Ferren's face.

"John couldn't bear the harassment of that hypocritical woman, and took advantage of the inattention of me and the teacher,

Packed a few clothes, left a letter and ran away.

He said that he wanted to be a wandering pastor and see the vastness and customs of the world.

He was only seventeen years old! Can you imagine a seventeen-year-old child,

Forced to run away from home penniless? ”

Nock wanted to say that he could not only imagine, but also understand.

Kaadis Ferraine said, "We have been looking for John for many years, but we have not been able to find him.

He seemed to have disappeared, and in the entire sphere of influence of the Holy Empire, my teacher and me, as well as the Grand Duke,

Always trying to find him. Even before the news of his death came, we didn't give up. ”

Kaadis Ferraine suddenly said very sadly: "However, we never thought that after so many years,

When we got the news, he had been dead for many years. You know when we learned of John's death,

How mixed and exciting are the feelings? Even, the Grand Duke wants to send troops against the Lionheart Kingdom!

But for Miss Lillian's sake, the Grand Duke held back.

It was at that time that we also learned of the existence of you and the monastery.

Miss Lilian says that the convent has been forcibly disbanded by the Queen of the Lionheart.

She was sent to the Grand Duke, her other siblings,

was sent by the woman to a place she didn't know.

It's just you, Miss Lillian, and I'm sure you're still in the Lionheart Kingdom.

She was convinced that you would hold on to the monastery until the last moment.

It's a pity that after our people infiltrated England City, they only heard that you were missing, and the whole city was your wanted warrant.

Miss Lillian was also worried about insomnia. ”

Taking advantage of the moment when Kaadis Ferraine was breathless, Nock finally had a chance to interrupt him.

Nock asked excitedly, "Senior Ferren, what are you talking about Miss Lilian?" ”

Kaadis Ferren looked at the excited Nok and smiled kindly: "It's your sister from the convent,

John's adopted daughter, Miss Lillian Rhein. She is now adopted by the Grand Duke and raised in person,

Not even the Duchess can interfere.

By the way, she is now a qualified nun.

My teacher introduced her to a teacher with a good background and skills.

With us people in her hands, Miss Lillian is doing well now.

If it weren't for the fact that we were worried that she would be assassinated by some people if she went out without the ability to protect herself,

She's going to see you at Reims Cathedral.

It's a good thing we stopped her, otherwise she would have pounced by now.

You don't know how excited she was when she received news from the Holy Court and knew that you were okay.

I also thought that you were alone in the Kingdom of Fran.

It just so happened that the cardinal of the Kingdom of France was running for election this time, so I discussed it with the Grand Duke.

Let's see if we can snatch this position, or go to the Kingdom of Fran to be your backer.

It's just that I didn't expect that the backer you found yourself was much more reliable than ours.

Who is that mother-in-law who even His Majesty the Pope reprimanded?

Do you have a good relationship? With that kind of relationship, I don't have much desire to run for cardinal.

I'm going to get an upper middle grade so that I can deal with my teacher, and then I'll talk to you when it's over.

By the way, I invite you to go for a walk in Prussia with us.

The Grand Duke of the Rhine wants to see you, and Miss Lillian misses you too.

Of course, if you can, please also go and meet my teacher, he also wants to see the old man.

What is it like for John to teach his disciples? ”

Nock didn't expect that he would have such a relationship with Kaadis Ferren.

His teacher turned out to be a brother to Kaadis Ferren.

I have an extra group of elders out of thin air.

What the hell is going on, could it be that Lady Luck has been asleep these days,

Mistaking his Nock Lane for his own son?

Otherwise, when he was in trouble, he didn't have a helper, and he and Leo could only rely on themselves to fight their way.

But now, the elders have jumped out one by one, and the background is still very strong.

How acceptable to him!

Lylian, he wanted to see it, and he had to see it.

After all, of all the children in the convent, he had the best and closest relationship with Lilian.

That's the sister he brought up.

Unlike other children, Lillian took care of them more.

To the rest of the children of the monastery,

Nock is more like a strict father who goes out every day to earn money to support the family, and Lilian is like a mother who takes care of the family.

Except, of course, Colwell, who was Nock's most loyal admirer.

Although he later chose to leave because of Nock's disappearance.

But more because he found out that Nock alone couldn't protect them all.

He himself wanted to be stronger, so he left with others.

All in all, for Kaadis Ferren, the elder who suddenly appeared,

Nock was a little overwhelmed at this point.

Rasti seemed to see Nock's anxiety and uneasiness, and climbed into Nock's arms from the seat next to him,

Reach out and stroke Nock's chest.

"Papa is not afraid, Rasti, drive away the bad."

As he spoke, Rasti glared at Kaadis Ferraine fiercely.

In her eyes, it was this bad guy who made her father unhappy!
