Although Lord Hampton Stewart has the same title as his father Matthew, he is a great knight, but he has a lot of water.

Generally speaking, to be able to obtain the rank of Grand Knight, it is generally necessary to complete the second awakening and obtain enough meritorious service, at least in the combat unit This is a basic criterion.

But there are some exceptions, such as our Lord Stewart.

He was born in a family of craftsmen in the imperial capital, and I don't know from which generation, he can have some relationship with the famous Stuart family in the imperial capital, and he can be regarded as a distant branch of the child.

Yu Yin, the Tuo family, was able to enter the imperial capital garrison to serve and defend the imperial city, and he was really high-spirited for a few years.

But that's about it.

The talent is average, and he doesn't get attention and resources, so in the imperial capital, where there are many powerful dogs, he didn't complete his first awakening until he was 29 years old, and he couldn't see the hope of promotion for a long time.

So, unwillingly, he left the imperial capital and sought new development.

In the following ten years, he worked as a mercenary and a businessman, but most of them did nothing, and the years flew by in vain.

Until during a trip outside the Saiwai, he lost all the goods, but he also coincidentally rescued a powerful person in Gaokan City who was killed.

And take this as a step forward, and since then he has been serving by this adult's side, doing something that is not on the table but is very caring.

When the adult retired, Hampton Stewart was already 50 years old.

The age of 50 is a hurdle for Ward men, and generally speaking, men who have not awakened will begin to gradually enter middle age, and their physical strength and energy will gradually decline.

The vast majority of ordinary soldiers will choose to leave the army in this year, and exchange a certain amount of retirement money for the merits accumulated over the years, and some can even get a large fief.

Most of these people will return to the countryside to accompany their wives and children to make a living by farming, mining and fish hunting, raising their children and making up for the lack of family affection.

If you have some capital or connections, you will go into business or do something else as a means of making a living.

And our Lord Stewart was also faced with a major choice at that time.

Although he has awakened and can struggle for a few more years, he has not been given the opportunity to awaken a second time at the age of 50, so he basically has no hope.

Therefore, after several struggles, with the help of that adult, he exchanged several years of service for an exceptional promotion and obtained the title of Great Knight, which can be regarded as breaking this kindness.

And with the family money he has saved over the years, he came to Luoma Town and became a lord.

His first wife died of illness, leaving only a son, who was too talented to follow him around, and was sent back to the imperial capital by him to study at a young age.

The lady of Lord Demi Stewart, after he came to Lok Ma Town, married a woman from a well-known local commoner family as his second wife.

Later, she became pregnant with Catherine in the same year and gave birth to little Anna.

If you want to say that he is very fond of Little Anna, it hurts to the tip of my heart.

Attaching to the powerful may be his old business, but it is never enough to sell women for glory.

Part of the reason why he behaved so openly and philistically was that the old man who had promoted him was about to return to the arms of Gaia, the mother goddess of the earth, and his descendants were quite fond of him and ignored him.

He himself is not in the right position, so it is inevitable that he will be weak-hearted, and he will be cautious all day long, for fear that one day there will be a rumor that the position of this lord will be replaced.

You must know that being the lord of a town for several years, the benefits you get are by no means as simple as those on the surface.

If one day a powerful person takes a fancy to his lordship, it is simply a ready-made handle.

That's why he was so kind to the Matthew family, and even a little flattering, after all, it is not an exaggeration to describe the Snape family's status in Gokan City with great power.

And Matthew himself is of the same rank as him, but he is an active military officer with a great future and no threat to him.

Befriending this family, taking advantage of the situation, and doing no harm to him in the position of the lord of Luoma Town.

Phil didn't think much of it, and continued to wander around the lord's mansion in the company of Little Tail, and walked to the garden without paying attention.

The moonlight is sultry, the evening breeze is light, and there are beautiful songs in the distance.

Well, although this beauty seems to be too young.

It's a pity that it's not just the two of them here, those children don't have the patience to accompany the adults for their hypocritical and boring entertainment, and they all come to the garden, and they are gathering together in groups of three or five at the moment.

It can be seen that they are very familiar with each other, and Phil is an alternative in comparison.

No sooner had he turned the stone arch than Phil faintly heard some quarrel ahead.

Sure enough, there were two groups of children entangled by the pond, pushing each other, pestering and scolding.

The group of people was three boys who already looked like teenagers, and the tallest one was more than a head taller than the current little fat man.

They are relying on the strength of the crowd and rushing forward with great momentum.

There are only a few people, but there is only one boy and a little girl.

The little girl had beautiful black hair that was braided into two small ring-shaped braids.

But now the braid on one side has been scattered, unkempt and sloppy, and there is a pink bird-patterned hairpin scattered on the ground.

But the little girl didn't care about cleaning up her embarrassment, and was anxiously tugging at the arm of a boy who was standing in front of her, obviously afraid that the boy would suffer.

The boy was slightly shorter than the tallest one opposite, but a little taller than the other two accomplices.

I saw that his face was flushed, and he was glaring at the other party with angry eyes, and he was pushing the opponent's outstretched fists and palms.

Helplessly, the other party has many long hands, and he himself has an arm that was held by the little girl, so he obviously suffered a lot of losses, and his face was a little bruised.

The jacket was also wet, and it was suspected that it had been spilled by a drink.

But the strange thing is that no matter how fierce the fight was, the boy did not make a sound, but only fought silently with an angry face.

The little girl and the gang obviously suffered a loss, but Phil didn't have the idea of meddling in the slightest.

Between children, sometimes the reasons for fighting are bizarre, ridiculous, and outrageously naïve.

The situation in front of him is obviously a hero saving beauty, and there is a pig teammate who pulls his own hind legs, he looks at the excitement with a smile.

He himself did not do anything to bully a little girl when he was a child, it was not malicious, it was purely cheap.

For example, Lala's little girl's braids, and then she was beaten by her brother.

Then pulled, and then beaten, never tired of it, and lived well to nearly 40 years old.

Besides, even if he has the heart, he can't look down at his little arms and legs, and it's not good if he doesn't measure himself.

According to the habit of his previous life, he hid behind a tree and watched the good show in front of him with relish.

But for some reason, the more he watched, the more impulsive he felt in his heart, encouraging and seducing him to rush forward, as if he had fallen into an evil spirit.

This strong impulse is a bit unfamiliar, Phil savored it carefully, maybe it was called a sense of justice, maybe it was courage, but he would rather call it a lack of heart, at least he hadn't felt that kind in his previous life for more than ten years.

Suppressing this impulse, he was a little disappointed, turned around and was about to walk away, but he didn't notice the anger in the eyes of the little Lori behind him, and he was a little disappointed.

At this moment, a boy scolded in his ears: "Little Duke Vane, your grandfather Duke Sr. was a heretic who was deceived by the devil back then, and he was not qualified to return to the arms of Gaia, the goddess of the earth, and even his soul mark was broken."

I don't know how much it cost your family to let the temple cover up this matter, you are shameless and called Duke, and sooner or later you will be spit and cursed by Mother Earth God. ”

By this time, the boy named Little Duke had been pushed to the ground, and the two accomplices pressed him to prevent him from getting up.

The tall boy tugged at the little girl's braid and shouted, "Now you have bewitched Jasmine again, and she will become a heretic sooner or later." ”

It has to be said that this curse is somewhat vicious, especially when it comes out of the mouth of a young child, which is really surprising.

In Gaia, which is almost the only family in the temple, the heretics are very severe accusations, and they have not heard it in such a remote and isolated place as Luoma Town for many years, and the content of the words also made the little fat man vaguely recall some things back then.

He suddenly changed his mind, obeyed his body's will, and turned to the center of the dispute.
