In the endless war-torn continent of Lordaeron, Caer Dalon has become a paradise due to its unique geographical environment. Read novels on Dao.com
Many of Hilbrad's nobles who were related to the Barov family sent their families to Keldaron to avoid disaster. Naturally, Alex also left his wife and young son in Lake Center Castle.
Even though he has already taken control of Alterac City, this is the first time Alex Barov has asked his family to come here.
Carlos, who has not been home for many years, remembers his two younger brothers as the same two followers they once were.
But goodbye, the two former little followers have become adults.
Especially Wilton, the little fat boy who was rounded into a ball at that time, under the encouragement of his role model, actually developed a muscular body. Even if he was wearing a heavy leather jacket, he could still see the outline of his body.
And Alex, although not as strong as his younger brother, has completely inherited his father's intellectual appearance with his well-proportioned body shape and elegant appearance.
What a pair of handsome young men!
It's a pity that both of them were in a miserable state with bruises and swollen faces.
My sister is the good one from other families, and my younger brother is the good one from my own family.
He hugged his two brothers warmly, then walked to his mother and kissed the back of her hands and cheeks.
"Ilucia, take these two bastards down first. I have something to say to Carlos."
"Yes, mother."
After dismissing the servants in the room, Janis couldn't help crying.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? This doesn't look like tears of joy?"
Carlos was at a loss.
"Do you know why Alex and Wilton fought?"
"Um, I don't know."
Carlos searched for a long time but couldn't find a handkerchief, so he had to use his sleeve to wipe his mother's tears, but his mother slapped him hard on the buttocks.
"For status! For inheritance rights! This is for brother Ni Qiang!"
Janis stared and explained what happened.
If Carlos does not ascend the throne, then everything is easy to say, Alex's title will eventually be in Carlos's possession. His two younger brothers may be property or a piece of land, and they will be sent out to work on their own after Carlos inherits his father's title.
If Carlos had not ascended to the throne. Alex and Wilton may not have any ideas yet, and they will be done with living a carefree life under the protection of their elder brother.
However. As the family's status increases, everything becomes less certain.
Whether it is for the sake of family succession, the stability of the family's status, or even the continuation of the succession to the throne, Alex and Wilton will get much more than before.
Even if they don't get Alex's Grand Duke title, Alex and Wilton will at least be marquises, and they will be actual marquises or even earls.
Carlos, who had lived in Azeroth for more than 20 years, understood what he was saying, but he had nothing to do. I could only hold back a sigh.
In this beautiful, dangerous and cruel world, power comes from strength and responsibility.
Even a remote village chief needs to be responsible for dealing with wild beasts when they appear around the village. Either pay someone to hire someone, or lead the team yourself.
Human beings are not the masters of this world, and the inertia of order is far from enough to support the continuation of royal power, so enfeoffment has become the best choice.
Logically speaking, when he became the king, his father Alex should hand over the position of head of the Barov family to him.
But Alex didn't do that.
Carlos thought about it, but didn't care.
Think about it now. Alex was probably afraid that Carlos would be dazzled by the sudden power and have thoughts about his two younger brothers, so his choice to be a father brought the conflicting points of conflict onto himself.
Carlos didn't mind. But he wasn't sure what his two younger brothers were thinking.
"Wildon said that Alex was despicable and cowardly and unworthy of calling himself the brother of the King of Heroes. Alex said that Wilton only had muscles and not brains. He insulted your name and was simply a disgrace to the Barov family."
From Giannis's description, Carlos understood that during the days he left, speculators had gathered under his two younger brothers, and they began to look at each other.
"What the hell is the King of Heroes?"
Carlos asked with a twisted look on his face?
"The praise of those bards, now in the countryside. You are called so."
"Heh, heh. Heh, heh."
Carlos really didn't know what to say. Laughing is worse than crying.
"Go and do your work. Although I'm sad that the two of them are at odds with each other, I don't need you, a guy who doesn't even have children, to come up with ideas."
Although she was very happy that Carlos came to visit her, Janis was not a lady who only talked about gossip about costumes and jewelry. She knew that her son was really busy.
After chatting for a while and talking about some interesting anecdotes about military life, Carlos left Janis's side after making his mother laugh, and found his sister and two brothers in the yard.
"Carlos!"
"Brother!"
Although both brothers were excited to see him, Carlos saw something more in their eyes.
The humans of Azeroth are really precocious.
Squatting down, Carlos nodded to Ilucia and hugged his two younger brothers.
"Alex, Wilton."
Carlos gently called his two brothers' names.
"Big brother is fighting the orcs."
"Um."
Alex nodded, waiting for his eldest brother to continue.
"I know, of all the green-skinned monsters, my eldest brother can fight five of them!"
Wilton had a look of admiration on his face.
"Orcs are very powerful. Do you still remember the time when we three brothers fought wolves together when we were young? The eldest brother is very busy and very tired. For you and our Barov family, the eldest brother has the consciousness to die on the battlefield at any time."
"Brother!"
"Impossible, you are so powerful!"
Using force on his hands to calm his two frightened brothers, Carlos continued.
"So, my brothers, if the eldest brother is gone, my father, mother, and sister will have to be taken care of by you two. If you two start fighting, who will protect this family?"
"Carlos, I was wrong."
"I was the one who moved first, Alex, I'm sorry."
"Remember, this world is so dangerous. If you can't trust your own brother, who should you trust?"
Carlos felt that this was enough. He let go of his two younger brothers, leaving them with a tall back, and left the courtyard where his mother lived.
Let's talk about the future later. If the alliance is defeated, my brother will not even have a chance to fight for power.
An unprecedented fatigue filled Carlos' heart.
Everything I do is for my family, but is this really what my loved ones need?
certainly!
If you don't even have the right to live, then what's the point of loving?
The fatigue came and went quickly. Carlos, who had reaffirmed his faith, felt that his vision seemed to have become clearer, and the world had invisibly faded away.
"How cool, this man is my big brother."
"Alex, I won't hit you again."
"I will no longer speak ill of you behind your back."
"What? Not only did you say it in front of me, but you also slandered me behind my back?"
"Didn't you just say you won't fight?"
Wilton put down his clenched fists in embarrassment and watched Carlos leave. (To be continued)
