Lucky Or Unfortunate
It takes 3 days to sail across the sea from the Glen area to the capital of the Lion kingdom.
During this trip, the three of them, Glen, Adam, and Marlon became increasingly familiar with each other.
Moreover, after the three of them revealed their respective true identities, this immediately created a more intimate closeness between the three of them.
It turns out that Adam Holland was the first son of Earl Holland who owned territory a few days from the Glen area.
Famous as an Earl who is quite prestigious and good among the nobility and his people.
And Adam, as the first child of Earl Holland, became the favorite child of his family, and this was of course very visible from Adam's fat and prosperous body size.
However, Adam has been hanging out with Glen for the past few days, has quite a good and cheerful attitude as a friend, even though sometimes his narcissistic and showy nature is clearly visible.
As for Marlon Huge, he apparently comes from the family of Viscount Huge, a nobleman who is relatively close to the territory of the Earl Holland family.
And it is precisely because of the proximity of each other's territory that there is more contact between them, which of course makes Adam and Marlon more familiar with each other.
And now with the subtle help of Glen, who also has the motive of having friends from noble families, they have become closer to each other.
Especially after they found out that Glen had the title of Baron inherited directly from his family, which made them realize that Glen was taller than those who were only literal heirs.
Compared to Glen, who was officially appointed by the Queen.
"Really...you Glen...hiding big things like this so deep!!!" Adam said in surprise when he found out Glen's identity.
" What is it?? Just get used to it's not something big!!" Glen said dismissively.
"Fuck... don't you Glen know how prestigious it is to be an official noble with a title... if it were me... I would definitely..." Marlon groaned and began to imagine if he were the heir to his family.
But when he recalled his family's attitude towards him, he became skeptical.
"That's true what Marlon said, don't underestimate Glen's title!!!
Did you know that a noble with an official title attending a royal magic school has several advantages.
And that's not a small profit!!!!...argh…..I'm so jealous of you!!! When will I have an official title…
Thinking about my parents who are still dashing…what bad luck!!!" Adam said in a jealous tone and lamented his fate.
But Glen, who heard it, found it funny and couldn't understand how Adam's father would react when he found out that his son was eager to receive his degree.
Adam, you are truly a dutiful son!! Glen thought helplessly.
"Okay...I know what you want, but do you also realize that in my current position it's not easy?" Glen said, answering them with a question back.
Hearing Glen's question again, the two of them became thoughtful and fell silent.
They are aware of what Glen means, those who have lived in noble families since childhood, are well aware of the intrigue and interests that always exist in their lives.
Even though they were small, even though their lives were complete and did not experience shortcomings like ordinary people, their lives were also not completely happy and easy.
Their lives are scheduled from waking up to sleeping, as if everything has been planned and arranged for their future.
Without really asking themselves what they want.
Everything has been arranged and they can only accept and follow it.
There is no compromise or denial, there is only obedience that they have to live by, and this is clearly not easy.
Luckily for Adam, because he was the first heir of his family, he lived quite well and was very pampered even though strict rules still surrounded him.
However, he also had to remain vigilant and try hard to make himself fit as the main heir of his family.
Because if not, his younger brother is ready to take over, and even his half-brother will also be ready to take over.
And this is something that is very common among noble families, there is competition in winning the heir to the throne.
As for Marlon, it was clear he had almost lost in the fight for his family's heir, as an ostracized child he clearly had no advantages compared to the other siblings.
Which of course made him even more discouraged by the oppression from his other siblings.
Luckily, it seems that fate said otherwise, because he awakened quite strong magic power and was able to be invited to the royal magic school.
And this revived the hope he had, even though the chances were still small but he was also aware, only by becoming stronger and famous could he have a greater possibility of inheriting his family's noble title.
As for Glen, who has no relatives and has officially received the title of baron, this is something very lucky in the eyes of both of them.
He didn't need to conflict with his other siblings, or fear being betrayed by his close relatives.
Because he was alone, and had complete power in his hands for the inherited domain.
Although once again it is also not an easy matter to survive alone, in the midst of a magical world full of challenges and dangers.
"Okay... don't keep discussing that problem, just live with what is already there, if you really want to change and have a title.
Just show the quality that you have, and if you feel that it's lacking then isn't there another way to get a noble title, such as making a big contribution to the kingdom??" Glen spoke again after seeing the depressed faces and features of his two new friends.
He clearly realized that this conversation had made both of them feel sad and miserable, so instead of continuing to talk about it, he shifted the conversation to something better.
"Huuu...you think it's easy to make a recognized contribution...it's even more impossible Glen!!!!!" Adam said with an annoyed face at Glen's suggestion.
"That's right….that's really impossible these days!!!!" Marlon also responded with the same attitude.
" Get ready…..all students and prospective students from the royal magic school are asked to get ready, because soon we will arrive at the capital of the Lion kingdom!!! The sound of the announcement echoed throughout the ship.
And the three who heard this immediately became happy and forgot their sadness.
"Ok..ok…finally we have arrived…..ohhh….the capital of the Lion kingdom…Adam has arrived!!!" Adam happily said excitedly.
"Umm….we've finally arrived!!" Marlon is happy with his shining eyes.
On the other hand, Glen, who heard this, had mixed feelings and curiosity, he who had gone far from his territory would now finally arrive at his destination.
And hearing the happy voices of Adam and Marlon, he knew that the capital of his Lion kingdom was prosperous enough to make them so excited.
