Chapter 1046 Dylan Stargaze (2)

Dylan and Alicia were riding their horses straight to the Stargaze family's territory.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Because he rarely came home, Dylan's face wasn't known by a lot of people. He easily headed to his home without getting any attention.

As soon as he reached the mansion gate, the guards stopped him as though he were just a stranger.

Dylan didn't feel offended at all. He simply said, "Is Taylor here? Can you call him out? Tell him that the first young master has returned."

The guards were confused, but before they could do anything, someone's voice echoed from afar.

"Young Master!"

They all turned their heads around, seeing a big, muscular man run toward the gate and even jump as if he were about to tackle Dylan. The latter simply grabbed the muscular man's head and stopped him without taking a single step back.

*Bam!*

The impact produced a shock wave that astonished the soldiers.

"Ca...Captain Taylor?!" The guards were confused.

On the other hand, Dylan simply smiled while tilting his head to the side so that he could take a good look at Taylor. "It's been a while, Taylor. You still haven't changed."

Taylor smiled and straightened his body, revealing his true height. He was a giant with a height more than 230 cm. Compared to him, Dylan looked so small even though his height was average.

"I'm just happy that the young master can return safely." Taylor smiled. He was the one who had trained Dylan since he was young, so it wasn't weird that he had a deep attachment to Dylan.

Dylan smiled. "Is my mother inside?"

"Yes. How many days are you going to stay this time, Young Master?" Taylor asked.

"I'm going to stay here for a long time. You don't have to worry about that."

"A long time?" Taylor suddenly gasped. "Young Master... you..."

"It's time for me to learn how to be a noble. That's why I'm counting on you from here on, Taylor."

Tears couldn't help but form in the corner of his eyes. Dylan, who had been sent away this whole time, could finally return. As the one who was most attached to him, Taylor wanted to cry but had to say, "Of course. Please leave all the tasks to me. The young master is finally home... Young..."

Dylan patted his shoulder while saying, "Alright. Alright. How about guiding me inside first?"

"Y-yes! Huu..." While crying, Taylor led his young master inside.

"Is my mother in the office?" Dylan asked.

"Yes. Madam has only told me that you will be home soon and asked me to guide you to her once you arrive."

in-law gives you the opportunity for it."

"Oh? He really did all that?"

"Yes. To be honest, I couldn't really find any flaws in the plan." Vivian sighed. "He is going to expand the highway for his new technology. The technology is desired by a lot, so they will definitely support the expansion of the road.

"You still need to negotiate with them so that we all can use the roads with the least amount of tax. Because they already want it, they will probably agree to our conditions since we're the Stargaze family."

Dylan thought for a moment. "So that's how it is. Because of Anna, the negotiation will be a simple task. If that's the case, should we just try to make a profit in the negotiation?"

"That's what I'm going to teach you." Vivian raised a finger. "If you show outrageous cooperation and eventually sow a seed of hatred in your partner, there will be a high chance for them to betray you in the future. That's why I'll be helping you so that the benefits are mutual and the agreement can be long lasting."

"I see. It's an experience that I don't have. It seems that my brother-in-law is a capable man."

"I can't help but agree on that. And more importantly..."

"Yeah. He manages to turn my sister back to normal. Even now, I hate that arbiter." Dylan clicked his tongue.

"That's also another problem. According to your father, Josephine rarely visited the royal court anymore. He is still observing her movement and seems to know more of what's going on, but currently, we don't have to focus on her yet."

Dylan nodded. "Yes. I'll focus on strengthening our territory first."

"Mhmm... And because of that, some other nobles might try to take advantage of this situation to make a 'connection' with you."

Dylan's expression turned serious. He obviously understood what she meant. Because of Anna, he became an extremely important chess piece to reap some benefits from the Ardagan family.

After all, he could simply ask Anna for something, and the latter would give it directly or plead with her husband.

So, there would be a lot of nobles coming with their daughters.

"Can I just tell them that I already have Alicia here?"

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm "Do you really think it's going to work?" Vivian shook her head. "If you're going to use that, the first thing they will do is eliminate her. If you don't want that, you have to accept others..."

"I guess I have to do that." Dylan smiled wryly.

"Still, your father and you are strong enough to choose your spouse. So, you can choose whoever you deem is good for you."

"Mhmm. I'll think about that later. There is one thing that has been on my mind this whole time. I've heard a rumor about a carriage that can actually bring hundreds of people or tons of supply in a single trip."

"It's the new technology of the Ardagan family."

"What are these rune technologies?"

Vivian thought for a moment before nodding her head. "Let's start with that. They are..."
