Chapter 1026 Father and Son-in-law

Chapter 1026 Father and Son-in-law

Noel looked down, recalling the information about her brother. 'If I'm not wrong, her brother is known to be a genius as well. It's said that Marquis Stargaze has found a good successor for him. However, everything changes with Anna inside the picture.

'Her talent is so amazing that her brother turns into a shadow. However, Anna's personality was known to be troublesome, so her brother remains the heir of the Stargaze family.

'It seems that he has to go to the front line to protect himself. I see. If he has become a Spirit Grandmaster, he's definitely worthy of being the successor of the Stargaze family.

'And because Anna's personality issue has been solved and she is now engaged to me, there won't be anyone stopping him from returning home. All Uncle Kevin needs to do is teach him the politics before handing him the seat of the Stargaze family's patriarch.'

Noel couldn't help but ask, "Will it be fine for him to return? I'm not going to turn him away from the marriage ceremony. I'm just worried..."

"It's fine. I'd actually sent a message to him about the marriage ceremony. He was delighted to know that and was prepared to return. But it just happened that we would move the schedule ahead." Kevin shrugged.

"I see." Noel nodded, feeling relieved.

"That's right. You've got a letter."

Noel glanced at the letter and mentioned no name. It must be the letter that was passed by the brothel manager in the capital city.

"I understand. Thank you very much." Noel smiled.

"I know that I shouldn't worry about this, but I need to warn you. Don't underestimate those old nobles in the palace. They might end up devouring you."

"Do you know about their intentions? And what kind of things are they planning to seize?"

Kevin thought for a moment. "I'm not so sure about this, but obviously, they're planning to acquire your runes. And obviously, they might end up forcing you to submit it to the kingdom."

"The runes are solely mine. And they won't be able to seize it. I have prepared some assurance as well."

"In that case, you should worry about Duke Briton's incident."

"I know." Noel nodded.

"Last but not least, it's the Atracaeca Kingdom. We don't know about their stance yet, but if they end up joining hands with the royal family, even you might have a problem."

"Atracaeca Kingdom, huh?" Noel looked down before asking inwardly, 'Ardagan. How about giving me a mission?'

[Mission: Win the debate against the old nobles.]

[Description: The old nobles have prepared to make trouble during your reward ceremony. Beat them up with your mouth and obliterate their plans.]

[Reward: Dignity Medal]

[Mission: Win the heart of your father-in-law and brother-in-law.]

[Description: To marry someone means to win the hearts of her family.]

[Reward: Blessing Medal]

'This is...' Noel read the two missions carefully, confusing Kevin.

The content of the letter contained all the new information and test results from their new invention.

After reading all of it, Noel replied to them about the next project as well as the names of these inventions. He simply slapped the name of the previous civilization onto them though.

...

Finally, the day of his ceremony arrived.

"Am I supposed to wear this?" Noel asked with a wry smile.

"What's wrong? It suits you." Kevin chuckled. Because he usually wore the black military uniform from the Demon Banner Army, wearing the opposite color made him look different.

Yes, instead of black, he was wearing a white ceremonial uniform. It created a contrast with his hair and eyes.

However, the aura of the warrior as well as the pride of a noble transformed the awkwardness into dignity.

Noel was never like Anna, who was one of the flowers of the kingdom. However, he had a charm different from theirs but didn't lose to them either.

Ardagan also matched him by turning white like when they were in disguise.

"Hahaha. You definitely will not lose against those pretty boys." Kevin laughed happily.

"We can just wear the usual one, can't we? It doesn't really matter."

"Of course, it matters. Even though it's minuscule, having a good appearance will give you an advantage in the debate. Besides, there are a lot of ladies attending the ceremony. I want to show off a little bit, telling them that this is what they have missed."

Noel scratched the back of his head. "Well, it doesn't really matter to me. But if that makes you happy, I don't really mind."

"After the ceremony, there will be a banquet too. While it looks flashy, it's pretty comfortable, right?"

"Indeed." Noel's plan was to receive the reward, escape from the banquet, and return to his territory as quickly as possible. Of course, the banquet would definitely allow him to see the nobles' stances about the current political situation, even though he would be tired of dealing with the nobles who would try to shove their daughters at him.

Either way, this was also another opportunity for him to deal some damage to their reputation. He had even arranged a few things.

"That's right. Uncle... There are a few things I'd like you to do. I'm not sure what will happen during the ceremony, so I have prepared some countermeasures. If the condition reaches those points, I hope that you can help me."

"Hoh? Sure. What do you want me to do?"

Noel smiled evilly as if he had made a devilish plan to smear the royal family as well as crush his father's rival.

Even Kevin's face turned into shock after hearing the plan. He never thought that his son-in-law could even come up with something like this.

"Alright. You got my words." Kevin smirked, feeling excited about the drama that would occur in the palace. "Let's go to the palace now."

"Yes."

Both of them immediately headed to the carriage. This was the night where the pair of father and son-in-law would wreak havoc in the palace.

"Earl Noel Ardagan is entering the hall!"
