Chapter 39 Marriage plan!
"If you want to participate in the war in two years' time, Yersen, you must at least become a senior knight, Brand, you must at least become an official mage."
"No. Question! "
Regarding the pioneering war, Brand and Yersin are preparing to practice hard in the next two years.
So despite some difficulties, the two of them agreed to the request made by Mr. Holland.
Seeing his two sons being moved by his words, Mr. Holland nodded with satisfaction.
In a happy mood, he fed himself two more chili peppers.
“Let’s stop chatting here, prepare for war and so on. That is my business as the head of the family, and it has nothing to do with you two. You know that there is such a thing, and then you can practice well.”
Mr. Holland leaned back on the comfortable chair and talked about something that both of them cared about:
"Finally, we have to talk about the important matter of your marriage."
Hearing this, both Yersen and Brand froze and cast anxious glances at Mr. Holland.
Although Brand does not have many requirements for his significant other, he still cannot say that he does not care about the matter at all.
Not to mention Yersin, he was more worried at this time that Mr. Holland would let him marry someone other than Ms. Romine.
What he is most worried about is that Mr. Holland will announce the shocking news that Ms. Romine will marry Brand.
Just listen to Mr. Holander continue: "After all, our Holander family has a small number of people. Before the next generation is born, we dare not put everything into a huge uncertainty like the development of war. on.
In addition, when it comes to matters of huge interest such as the maritime trade route with the elves, a contract alone is not enough. "
At this time, Brand suddenly stood up and interrupted:
"I am only 16 years old. The empire's law stipulates that you can only get married after you are 18 years old, so I think it is important to cultivate future generations. Let’s leave this difficult task to Yersen! ”
Although he has always been open to things like marriage, Brand still feels a little inappropriate considering that he is 16 years old.
Listen to Brand After speaking, Yersin cast a grateful look at Brand. In his opinion, Brand was not preparing to compete with him for Ms. Romine, but was preparing to give him an assist.
"Of course we will not violate the laws of the empire. It is not yet time for you to raise offspring."
Mr. Holland shook his head slightly, then looked at Brand apologetically and said:
“But I have communicated with several allies. Although the Kaya Empire does not practice the ceremony of engagement, we must follow the right circumstances. In short, you are indispensable for this marriage.”< br>
While saying this, Mr. Holland took out several "lists" full of names from the drawer on the side and handed them to Brand.
Brand took it with a blank look on his face.
Seeing Brand take the "list", Yersin unconsciously cast curious and inquiring eyes.
He is very concerned about whether Ms. Romine, whom he misses so much, is on this list.
“Don’t look at Yersin, Ms. Romine, whom you have been longing for, is not here.”
Looking at Yersen’s expectant look, Mr. Holland Smiling:
“I discussed it with the head of the Romien family. Considering your sincerity towards Ms. Romien, they still agreed in principle to let Ms. Romien marry you. However, There is a prerequisite, you have to become an official knight.”
"Oh!!!"
"I love you, sir!!!"
Hearing such good news, Yersin jumped up, then rushed forward and gave Holland A big hug from Mr. De.
Seeing his son so happy, Mr. Holland was also in a happy mood. However, Mr. Holland finally reminded:
"But don't be too happy too early. Because time is a little tight, I will only give you one month. If you haven't become an official knight after one month, then you can't marry the legitimate daughter of the Romine family. Think about it."
Yersen patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry! One month is enough."
Looking at Yersen's confident look, Hollander said. The master smiled and nodded, then turned his gaze to Brand, who had turned pale since he got the list.
“That’s it Brand.”
Mr. Holander’s eyes once again brought a hint of apology: “Because the Holander family has few members, and this time the allies are relatively small. More..."
Brand shook the "list" in his hand and interrupted: "Master! The Kaya Empire is monogamous! You don't want me to marry everyone on the list, do you?"
"How is that possible! There are dozens of names on it."
Mr. Holland smiled awkwardly.
Brand's expression softened slightly and he asked doubtfully: "Do you want me to choose one?"
"That's not the case."
Facing Brand's questioning gaze, Mr. Holland said bravely:
"Although the Kaya Empire is generally monogamous, strictly speaking, the laws of the Kaya Empire only stipulate that "The number of 'lawful wives'"
After coughing slightly, Mr. Holland continued:
"I don't know if you have heard of the term "lawful wives". In fact, in In many countries in the eastern part of the Farnes continent, men there can marry a varying number of wives in addition to their main wives. I originally wanted Yersen to share the burden with you and marry a few each."
< br>At this time, Yersin interrupted angrily: "I only want Ms. Romine!"
"It's none of your business!"
After throwing a chili for Yerson to play with, Mr. Holland continued:
"Because of your appearance, Brand." It is indeed too outstanding, and the heads of several allied families also bear tremendous pressure from the female relatives within their respective families.
So although I will argue with you, you still need to choose one from each family. The total is 6.”
At this time, Brand didn’t say anything, but Yersen became curious.
"Isn't it 5?"
Mr. Holland explained:
"Brand first chooses one from each family, and then adds the ones already from the Mesa family. The one determined in advance, so there are 6 in total. Of course, if Brand wants to marry a few more, it’s no problem.”
Looking at Brand’s face getting darker, Huo said. Mr. Rand still did not continue to stimulate.
"Okay, that's it for today's topic. Yersin, you need to hurry up. Brand, you're just engaged. It doesn't matter if you reply to me later, by the way!"
At the end of his speech, Mr. Holland took out two crystal balls from his pocket, handed them to Brand, and then explained:
“These two crystal balls contain a message that points directly to the Magister. The mage inheritance, one is for you, and the other is for your teacher."
After a pause, Master Holander said apologetically:
"It can be regarded as compensation for you. , after all, because of family reasons, you have endured burdens and pressures that you should not bear at this age.
In addition, maybe your teacher does not like those troublesome rituals, but there is a proper apprenticeship ceremony, Huo Lan. The De family will never forget it.”
