Intelligence 6: Lilith's follower, an official knight once threatened to chop off Klar's fat pig head with his own hands.
With all these conditions in place, most of the people present here have come from that time, so they can guess the ins and outs of this matter without much thought.
Lilith Golden Rose was unable to satisfy Klar's needs during her pregnancy, so Klar went out to find some mistresses. However, the mistresses came to provoke him, but Klar did not intend to punish them. As a result, Lady Lilith's blood surged and caused a difficult delivery. In order to prevent the matter from being leaked, Baron Klar quickly put the blame on the newborn Krober. In order to make the mistress shut up, he took him to the castle and raised him regardless.
As soon as this matter was deduced, countless details were instantly imagined by everyone present.
Lady Lilith, who was born into a noble family, was insulted by a lowly merchant's daughter, but her husband did not seek justice for her. She was depressed in the castle and died sadly after giving birth to a child.
There were also many nobles present who had married their daughters far away. It was hard for them not to think about their own daughters and what would happen if they also met husbands like Kroll who treated them badly.
Thinking of this, their faces darkened instantly.
They were already accustomed to Klar having a mistress, and how many of those present could remain faithful in their marriage?
However, the fact that a mistress had come to provoke the castle mistress and had not been punished was a bottom line that could not be challenged, whether for the Golden Rose family that Lilith came from or for the nobles present.
Since the ruler of the principality, the Golden Duke, is a woman, the status of women in the aristocratic atmosphere of the entire principality is still relatively high. It cannot be said that men and women are equal, but it is almost the same.
The male owner is responsible for foreign wars and handling territorial affairs, while the female owner is responsible for managing the castle and servants.
The hostess does not cut off ties with her natal family when she marries into another family. On the contrary, she will have closer ties with her maternal family, and the cooperation between the two aristocratic families will become closer.
Baron Klar's actions were a slap in the face to the Golden Rose Family, and they also lowered the bottom line of the entire aristocracy.
Let's put it this way.
With the incident with Klar in the past, those nobles who want to promote a marriage between the two families by marrying their daughters will think carefully from now on. People are all made of flesh and blood, and who doesn't want their daughter to live happily after marriage? If she gets insulted like this after marriage, I'm afraid the two families will go to war directly. It would be a real loss of both a daughter and an army.
Thinking of this, the knights also realized the seriousness of the matter. The one who led the discussion was even sweating profusely, fearing that these words would be spread out.
However, there are always unexpected events in life, and the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen.
"What you just said... is it true?"
A low roar filled with anger came from behind the crowd, and everyone quickly made way for him. Baron Adam walked in with a spirited old knight.
The person who asked that question just now was this old knight who looked very energetic.
Foster. Wooden Shield.
As a person born in a civilian family, he was taught from childhood to be loyal to the Golden Rose Family and his lord. At the age of thirteen, he was drafted into the battlefield and was hit directly in the chest by a hammer from the enemy. He almost died, but the dragon took pity on him and finally let him survive.
Ever since he had a near-death experience, Foster seemed to have become enlightened. His training progress was not only rapid but also overwhelmingly better than his comrades who were training with him.
When he was still a high-ranking knight's squire, he was picked by Lilith Golden Rose, the most beloved little princess of the entire Golden Rose family at that time, to serve as her own guard.
That was the first time he was so close to a noble.
Lord Lilith was a very cheerful and kind person. Her golden hair was as bright and dazzling as she was. The days when she served him were the happiest time for Foster.
A few years later, it was time for Foster to break through and become a formal knight. Although he was a knight within the family, he did not have enough merit to exchange for potions.
He knew very well that without the potion, based on his talent and physical fitness, breaking through to become a full-fledged knight would be almost a life-or-death experience.
It is not known whether his usual sad expression was discovered, or whether Lilith learned about this matter through other channels.
One night, Lilith personally handed a bottle of golden rose potion to him.
"Take it, Foster. As your lord, I have an obligation to take this responsibility for you. You need to become stronger so that you can better protect me, right?"
In this way, Foster returned to his room in a daze. He did not come to his senses until the next morning and went to work with dark circles under his eyes.
"You need to become stronger so that you can better protect me, right?"
But he always kept Lilith's words in his heart.
When the news of Lilith's death in childbirth reached his ears, Foster felt like the sky had fallen on him. However, his integrity prevented him from putting the responsibility on an innocent newborn baby. So, with complicated emotions, he swore allegiance to the newborn Kroebuck in order to protect the most precious gift left by his lord in the world.
He originally thought that the long time had erased the anger in his heart, but when he heard the truth about his master's death again, he truly realized that he had not forgotten this humiliation, the humiliation of his master being murdered.
Yes, murder.
Foster believed that Baron Klar and his mistress wanted to murder their lord, otherwise how could such a commoner come to provoke the Baroness and the Earl's daughter?
If you say that this was done without the permission of that fat pig Klar, even if Foster gave that bitch ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to challenge the noble bloodline of the Golden Rose Family.
"Now... tell me... what you just said... is it true?"
Foster, with an angry face, and Baron Adam, with a gloomy face beside him, became the two most frightening people in the training ground, no doubt about it.
At this time, Klar, who was still recruiting farmers and soldiers in Deepwater Territory, had no idea that he was about to face a disaster.
