Reiter and His Three Sons

A biting cold wind whistled past at night, as if the devil was roaring. It was snowing heavily, and a thick layer of silver frost covered the entire Young Eagle Town.

In the quiet and cold Young Eagle Town, all the shops were closed, and there was no one on the streets.

Looking to the west, less than a kilometer away stood a majestic and upright Deep Rock Castle.

In the hall on the fifth floor of the Deep Rock Castle, there was a fireplace in the deepest part that was surrounded by flames and emitting waves of warm currents. This was the spiritual core of most noble families.

Under normal circumstances, by the fireplace, one's mind would be active and relaxed.

However, at this moment, there was a faint sorrow brewing in the air.

Three young men were talking to a middle-aged knight who was not very tall but had an abnormally steady temperament. However, the middle-aged knight did not seem to be in a good state.

There was a tuft of white hair in front of his forehead. If one looked carefully, it seemed to have condensed into the sharp hook of an eagle's beak. Overall, it did not match the other black and smooth hair.

It was the external symptom of the White-Headed Eagle's poison.

The three young men looked very solemn, but they tried their best to hide it.

"Father, I believe that when this winter is over, the White-Headed Eagle Poison in your body will definitely be dispelled with the arrival of spring." The second son, Rylei, patted his chest with one hand and said confidently.

The third son, Thales, lowered his head and silently played with the corner of his clothes. He seemed distracted, but he was actually extremely uncomfortable. After a series of internal struggles, Thales' low voice sounded. "In a few days, when the snow stops, I'll go look for Lilice.

"She once said that if I'm willing to sleep with her for a night, she can agree to any of my requests! In my opinion, although this sentence is exaggerated, if I take this opportunity to build a relationship with her, I might be able to obtain the help of her father, Viscount Bolton."

After saying this, Thales lowered his head even more, but his eyes were filled with determination.

The second son, Rylei, was shocked and surprised as he looked at his delicate and cute third brother, who was usually very introverted. He was a little speechless.

Recalling the carefree Lilice, Rylei took a deep breath.

So that fat woman liked young ones?

However… Regarding the fat woman's reputation, Rylei was not optimistic about it. He heard that the fat woman relied on her outstanding talent and powerful family background to repeatedly force a small noble who was powerless to resist to have sex.

Not only was her private life chaotic, but she also seemed to have some perverted hobbies.

If Third Brother went over, wouldn't he be walking into a tiger's den and falling into a tiger's den?

At the thought of such terrifying consequences, Rylei shuddered and was about to advise.

Reiter Green, who had been resting with his eyes closed, could no longer sit still!

There was a crisp sound. He patted the right arm of the chair, blew on his beard, and his eyes widened. He said angrily, "Thales, don't even think about it! I don't agree with you selling your body for me. That fat woman with the pockmarked face wants to sleep with my son?

"If it was Tucker, it would be fine. Anyway, Tucker's skin was thick and durable, but you couldn't. Your small body doesn't even have battle aura talent. You definitely couldn't withstand her torture!

"I've heard that a year ago, Feltz of House Doron had also entered the threshold of a Knight Apprentice. He was also a weak-looking young man, but he couldn't get out of bed for three days after being tormented by Lilice! How dare she have designs on my son now? Dream on!"

Although he was very weak, at the end of his speech, Reiter roared for once. Then, Reiter's chest heaved up and down as if he was very angry. After saying that, he added, "Thales, don't mention this again. I'm fine!"

Tucker and Rylei looked at each other. Although they did not agree to let that fat woman, Lilice, ruin their third brother, they knew their father's condition very well. They could not delay it at all.

Thales pursed his lips as if he wanted to say something else.

At this moment, Reiter's expression changed slightly. Perhaps his voice was a little too loud just now, affecting the White-Headed Eagle Poison hidden in his body.

Reiter only felt an indescribable energy vibrating in his chest. Then, he felt as if his throat was blocked by something. His expression was ugly as he straightened his body. He suddenly opened his mouth and coughed out a pool of blood.

This scene frightened Reiter's three sons. The eldest son, Tucker, wanted to mutter, but he could only quickly take out a towel from the side and cover Reiter's mouth, wanting to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Bah, Tucker, get lost. Who asked you to use the tablecloth as a towel!" Reiter had been enduring the weakness in his body, but when he smelled the stench so close to him, he couldn't help but push the careless Tucker away.

"Oh, I'm too nervous. I'm sorry, Father." Tucker scratched the back of his head foolishly and grinned heartlessly. "I'll go find a clean towel and come over now."

The small surprise eased some of the tension.

After Tucker left, under the gaze of his two sons, Reiter closed his eyes again, and the quiet atmosphere continued. With the beast poison in his body, memories of the past surfaced in Retter's mind.

He… was a transmigrator.

Before he transmigrated, he had no parents. He grew up in an orphanage and developed a self-reliant personality. It had been more than 30 years since he transmigrated to this vast transcendent world.

Although he had never seen the world in its entirety, he knew that there were two types of power systems in this world: knights and mages. Knights could cultivate combat aura, and mages could master all kinds of magical spells.

His kingdom was the Kingdom of Jinlun. A few years after he transmigrated, his parents in this life were sacrificed in a beast harassment operation at the border.

According to his father, his great-grandfather was also a mage. The low-grade meditation technique left behind was proof that it had always been passed down in the family.

In Reiter's generation, he happened to awaken his magic talent and was lucky enough to become an earth-element mage. However, he only had low-grade talent, so he had only reached the level of a second-grade mage when he was in his forties.

When he was young, he traveled everywhere. He had been a mercenary, adventurer, lone ranger, and so on. Ever since he learned of his parents' death, he had resolutely stepped onto the front line.

Initially, Reiter only wanted to take revenge. As he stayed on the battlefield for a long time, with the scarcity of earth-element mages and their special role on the battlefield, as well as his hard work, he killed dozens of orcs of the same level and accumulated a lot of merit.

He was even lucky enough to cooperate with others and kill a Class 3 beastman with a royal bloodline, the Blood Moon Werewolf.

In the end, with his rich experience on the battlefield, outstanding contributions, and a beautiful resume that had killed the royal bloodline of the beastman, he was fortunate enough to satisfy the conditions for the Kingdom of Jinlun to bestow him the title of Baron. He was honored to become a small noble.

In the Kingdom of Jinlun, it was not an easy task to be promoted to a noble by making meritorious contributions in the military. Reiter had done it. Although it was only the lowest baron rank, it was enough to cause a huge change in his status.

The newly promoted nobles of the Kingdom of Jinlun had the obligation to send at least one Grade 2 mage or two Grade 2 knights to fight on the frontlines for ten years, so he could not enjoy the treatment of a noble for the time being.

Fortunately, he was a mage and only needed ten years.

If there was only one knight, he would need to fight on the front line for another 20 years.

Yes, there was still professional discrimination in this world, but no one had ever refuted this point. After all, mages of the same level had a natural advantage over knights. As their strength increased, the difference would become even more obvious.

Two months ago, when winter had just begun, the temperature had dropped drastically. In the past, during this time, the war between the Kingdom of Jinlun and the Beast Race would have decreased greatly.

Coincidentally, the obligations that Reiter had to fulfill after becoming a noble also fulfilled the ten-year period.

He ignored the commander's persuasion and resisted the temptation of the other party saying that he would have a chance to become a viscount in another ten years. He also wanted to bid farewell to that place.

He received a letter while he was still at the front, in which it was reported that Tucker's wife was pregnant with a boy and was about to give birth.

At that time, he was excited and naturally left without listening to any advice.

Of course, one of the reasons was that he did not have high expectations for his talent. He pessimistically believed that it would be very difficult for him to break through to become a Grade 3 Mage in ten years.

And in the Kingdom of Jinlun, if one did not meet the requirements for strength, no matter how many merit points one had, it was impossible to obtain the corresponding title.

In addition, the beastmen had always been cruel. There was a risk of dying if he stayed at the front line. With many factors combined, he still planned to return to the rear and settle down and develop in a low profile manner.
