In Bruno's study, Crown Prince Garrett knelt on one knee to greet his father.
The prince had the golden-brown hair and purple pupils that were unique to the royal family of Alduin. However, because he practiced a special fighting spirit secret book, his hair color was mixed with some purple, the same as his pupils.
Garrett is very tall, especially when wearing a golden armor. Most people would feel quite oppressive in front of him.
"Haha, my son, please get up quickly."
Bruno smiled and walked over to help the kneeling Garrett up.
The king in gorgeous clothes looked so petite in front of his son, but Bruno did not feel any oppression. His eyes were full of love and approval.
Yes, the outside world is criticizing his weak strength, and he may only be able to stay at the silver level for the rest of his life.
But his son made up for what he lacked in strength.
Bruno has always regarded Garrett as his pride! "It's been more than three years since we last met, right?"
Bruno grabbed Garrett's arm and led him to sit on the sofa nearby. "How is life at the border? Is it good?"
Garrett smiled, but it was obvious that he was a serious person.
"My life there is fine, father, don't worry too much."
He said, "But the Kingdom of Tricia has not been peaceful recently. The 'Sacred Storm' organization suddenly appeared and occupied an area of nearly a duchy at a very fast speed. Tamriel seems unable to resist."
“That’s a good thing!”
The smile on Bruno's face never stopped. The great turmoil in the Kingdom of Trissia was giving Alduin an opportunity.
"However, the founding celebration is coming soon, and we should enjoy the excitement of the celebration before that. As for the action against the Kingdom of Tricia, we will discuss it with a few dukes and Marquis Rulans after the celebration."
The three dukes plus the marquis of Wushan Territory are the top nobles of Alduin.
Garrett hesitated. According to his personality, such things should be discussed and confirmed first. How could the celebration be more important than defeating the enemy? However, since his father had made the decision, he could only obey the arrangement.
It's only a few days anyway, and it will be over soon.
"I heard that Marquis Lulans has recovered and even achieved a breakthrough to become a Silver Moon Knight?"
Garrett said, "I have long heard of the bravery and strength of the former Marquis of Thunder. It looks like I will have a chance to experience it this time."
Bruno knew his son. He was a gifted boy who loved competing with strong opponents.
"That depends on whether Lu Lan Si gives you the opportunity to challenge him."
Bruno smiled and said, "However, I think you can challenge his grandson, who is also your future brother-in-law, Ronin Wushan."
Brother-in-law?
Garrett was not aware of this matter. "Are you talking about Blanche?"
Bruno nodded. Today, he could reveal the marriage.
"During this celebration, I will announce the engagement of your sister Blanche and Ronin."
Garrett nodded.
"Over the years, the rumors about Blanche have had some negative impact on you and the royal family. Now that she can get married, it's a good thing for everyone."
"The Wushan family is the top noble family in the kingdom, but they have never married into the royal family. It is a good choice to let Blanche marry into the Wushan family."
He was not interested in what kind of person Roning was, as long as Blanche could marry without losing face for the royal family.
However, he didn't understand what Bruno had just said.
"Father, you asked me to challenge Ronin. The grandson of Lulans should be around 20 years old. Is a man of this age qualified to be my opponent?"
He turned around and sat on the sofa next to him. "Broll saw with his own eyes that Ronin used a secret technique to kill Orson the Broken-Handed Knight who became a Silver Moon Knight through abnormal channels. He guessed that your brother-in-law, who is less than 20 years old, has the strength of the late Meteor level or even the Silver Moon level!"
Garrett frowned, his expression serious: "Silver Moon level under 20 years old, are you sure?"
Bruno nodded. "You know Broll, his judgment is not far off."
Garrett's frown deepened.
"Lord of Wushan Territory, Lulansi is a Silver Moon Knight, and his fighting ability is extraordinary. His grandson actually possesses such strength at the age of nineteen."
He looked at Bruno: "If we don't take into account the strength of the followers, and only consider the combat power level of a single family, the Wushan family ranks at the top."
Even in the Alduin family, only Garet has reached the Meteor level. If Duke Ferrens, who changed his name to Gregor, is also counted, then there are two of them.
But they were far inferior to a 19-year-old Silver Moon Knight.
"This Ronin..."
Garrett felt heavy-hearted. Although the other party was his brother-in-law, he was somewhat uneasy about this man's potential.
Bruno seemed to know what his son was trying to say.
"The current environment is not very good. Howling Island, Moonlight Valley, the Principality of Vera, and even your uncle Ferrens, these people are very close. A strong Wushan Territory is what we need."
Garrett narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of hostility emerged from his body, "These restless people should be suppressed!"
Having said that, he knew now was not the right time.
Now that the Kingdom of Tricia is in chaos, it is the perfect time for Alduin to take advantage of the situation.
Once the armistice agreement is torn up, an all-out war will break out on the continent of Orlant.
The royal family cannot take on all of them alone, they need the help of all the forces including the Principality of Villa and the Principality of Ferensburg.
When we unify the continent in the future like the first Emperor Orlant did, it would be fine if these people restrain themselves, but if they still collude with each other and have ill intentions, it would not be too late to suppress them then.
Although Roning is excellent, he will not make an impact in the short term.
Even if the opponent is promoted to Jiaoyang before Garrett, the latter is confident that he can deal with it.
All the strong men on the royal side combined are no match for one scorching sun.
There were only the two of them, father and son, in the study, so they didn't have to worry too much about what they said.
Bruno said, "I asked you to try to challenge Ronin just to see how strong he is. This way, we will have a better idea."
Garrett thought about it and said, "I understand. When he arrives in Golden Feather City, I will go find him privately to give it a try. To be honest, such strength at the age of nineteen sounds incredible!"
"There is a magic potion in Wubei that can enhance the strength of the knights."
Bruno expressed his guess: "Perhaps Ronin has extraordinary natural resources, and with the help of magic potions, he has grown so fast."
"Oh? There is actually such a magic potion?"
Garrett's eyes lit up.
Strength is what this crown prince has been pursuing since he was a child.
It's not like he hasn't tried various magic potions over the years, but to be honest, they have had little effect.
If Ronin's strength improvement was achieved through magic potions, then this potion would definitely be able to help him go further.
"That being the case, I have to have a good talk with him." (End of this chapter)
