I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 106
#When he returned, the family was ruined (107)
Ethan’s mind spun quickly. There was information that could be found out about the situation.
first.
The Turian Marquis is misunderstanding that there is something about passing down experience to the family.
second.
The Marquis is not a being strong enough to push him down with force.
So you can’t do anything stupid.
And the last third.
If you’re a guy who’s greedy enough to come quietly alone like that, when it turns out it’s real.
‘I’m sure he’ll try to devour it by himself somehow.’
There is no need to tell that to the other 6 families first.
Past life and present life.
Ethan has accumulated countless experiences while experiencing two lives.
‘I guess I can try to plan it out.’
It is a huge plate that will gradually collapse the seemingly tightly connected Seven Families from within.
The core of this matter was simple.
To pretend that something is not there.
how?
Soon, a thought crossed Ethan’s mind.
‘Hmm…’
A huge secret that could shake the entire 7th Street.
Suddenly, a good idea occurred to me. He asked back while looking at the Marquis.
“transaction?”
“exactly. transaction. “It wouldn’t be a bad offer for the Duke either.”
Solving it with force was the worst option of all. Even if we were to compete against the peacock right now, wouldn’t we have to fight all day?
‘If you draw on the power of the family.’
There was no way the remaining 6 families would sit still.
Quietly and secretly.
The best thing to do was to finish what we were giving each other and lay the foundation for a leap forward. Of course, the starting point is to create that foundation.
“I want to know what the secret is and what it involves. Of course you will pay the price.”
“It’s a price. Do you think Fractal Marquis will give me something in return?”
“…There must be something you want. “I will provide the duke with any material support.”
“I’m not in need of that.”
“It takes a lot of money to develop a collapsed duchy….”
“It’s enough to make money somehow. “Did you really try to find out the secret with something like that?”
The turian’s mouth closed.
‘…It’s difficult as expected.’
If he really had such a secret, even if he were himself, he wouldn’t reveal it in exchange for money. What on earth does the duke want?
It was a time when he was struggling.
“It’s a secret that I can’t tell you, though.”
“huh? What is that…”
“I mean, if you’re curious, you can tell me.”
The Marquis’ eyes turned sharp.
Why on earth?
Why do you say something like that?
By looking at the duchy so far, I have been able to find out that the duke is not just a knight with outstanding skills, but also a person who uses his brains well.
There must be a reason why such a person speaks like that.
The turian’s head began to roll faster than ever.
‘Is it psychological warfare?’
however.
In this situation where so little information was given, it was almost impossible to find out the duke’s true intentions.
It was right then.
“Are you curious?”
“….”
The Marquis managed to suppress an answer.
The very first.
He tried to take control of the situation by proposing a deal.
I felt it instinctively.
In this conversation, the leadership is slowly shifting to the Duke.
“If you’re not curious, just leave.”
“…Whew. Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Is he really saying that to tell me the secret, or is he just showing that attitude to make fun of himself?
Nothing was certain.
My heart was suddenly becoming frustrated.
Ethan smiled quietly at that and added a word.
“There are so many things to think about.”
“….”
“His judgment is poor, even for the head of a family.”
Wow!
The head of the Fractal Marquis.
It was a position where I had never once in my life heard such verbal abuse.
This was especially true for someone who was a generation younger than me.
“Let me ask you one last time. Are you curious?”
Anticipation slowly began to bloom inside the office.
It was a warning.
If you’re not curious, just leave.
I was completely caught up.
The Marquis, who sensed this, spoke up.
“…exactly. I’m curious. Just keep one thing in mind. “If this was just a prank… I wouldn’t stay silent.”
Mana was writhing in the Marquis’ body.
He seemed quite angry.
The duke chuckled and answered.
“I’ll let you know.”
“….”
Really?
It was then.
“Simple. “This is just a power passed down to the family lineage.”
“…!”
The Marquis’ eyes widened at the Duke’s words.
Then he asked again.
“…lineage?”
“okay. “That is also a power that can be utilized by the eldest son, who most strongly inherits the duke’s blood.”
“…I don’t understand. If that is really true, then why didn’t the previous Zhuangzi utilize such power?”
“Didn’t I tell you? The blood must be inherited in the strongest way. “It doesn’t always happen just because you’re the eldest son.”
“….”
“And there certainly are ancestors who used this power.”
“It exists?”
“Do you know about the Sword Tower?”
Sword tower.
It was literally a building that took the shape of a tower and was one of the research groups formed in the duke family.
“…Are you talking about the duke’s building? Seven years ago, it was collapsed by collateral…”
“Yes.”
The main role of the sword tower was simple.
It was to study other sword techniques.
It was one of the key research buildings that extracted the strengths of other sword techniques and applied them to the Duke’s sword skills.
In the past, it was also a place with great reputation.
However, it is known that after the collateral ascended to the throne and took all the research results from the sword tower, the building was torn down.
“Of course I know very well. Usually, unqualified people who could not produce black flames were not appointed as the heads of the Sword Tower.”
“The family’s swordsmanship has developed endlessly. “It was even more so when the eldest sons became the heads of the Sword Tower.”
“….”
Was it really like that?
To be honest, even the Turians didn’t know that.
Whether it is the eldest son, the second son, or the third son.
Sword Tower, where unqualified people who could not shine the black flame used to enter, was one of the organizations that was far from the core power of the duke family, although it had a great reputation.
Therefore, it was also an organization that had not been paid much attention in the past.
In fact, the sword tower was a space that felt similar to a place of exile.
Ethan said, smiling quietly at the Marquis’ questioning gaze.
“One thing is certain. The unqualified ‘eldest son’ was unconditionally placed in the Sword Tower. “You will find out if you check the records.”
“Could it be because… that power could manifest? So you used it to develop swordsmanship?”
“Well, there must have been several reasons. What is certain is that that was one of the considerations.”
The power to receive the memories and experiences of ancestors.
This was incredible power.
‘The duchy’s family heads have been strong for generations.’
The Turian thought of past family heads. Usually, the eldest son would assume the position of head of the family.
‘If the eldest son is unqualified….’
This means that he went into the sword tower unconditionally and developed the family’s swordsmanship.
‘…So has the Duke’s swordsmanship developed that far?’
If the family knew that their eldest son had such power, they would of course never have wanted to let him go.
but.
I couldn’t completely believe those words right now.
It was an overly optimistic judgment to think that the duke would tell only the truth.
“…Are there any documents written about our ancestors?”
Reliable evidence was needed.
If it were a document containing the records of the ancestors, it might have been written about whether the firstborn sons always entered the ‘Geontap’.
At those words, Ethan reached for an old book in his office.
The book pulled from the bookshelf floated and landed in front of the Turian.
The Marquis immediately opened the book.
Saruk.
As each page passes by.
The turian’s eyes sparkled.
‘…It was true.’
An unfit person who cannot produce black flame. Sometimes the eldest son was ineligible, and sometimes the second or third son was.
There is a record that the second or third son was appointed as collateral and was given territory or roamed around as he pleased.
‘…the firstborn son is different.’
Starting from the first head of the family to the 17th previous head of the family.
There was a record that during that period, every one of the eldest sons who were found to be ineligible was appointed as the head of Geomtap.
Is this simply a coincidence?
I only found out after listening to the Duke.
‘It can’t be a coincidence.’
In order to utilize that power for the development of swordsmanship, perhaps the eldest sons were appointed as the heads of the Sword Tower.
Ethan smiled quietly after seeing the turian’s sparkling eyes.
‘I got caught.’
Of course, Zhuangzi had no such power.
The reason why the eldest sons, who had historically been ineligible, took on the leadership of the Sword Tower was because it was one of the traditions of the dukedom.
I think it is right to give the eldest son an honorable position even if he is not given real power. The position that was most suitable for him was the head of the Sword Tower.
It wasn’t difficult to put together the right information plausibly.
Looking at the Marquis’s expression, it seemed like he was more than half persuaded by what he said.
‘Believing it completely is something that only a fool would show.’
It would not be strange to call it foolish or foolish for the head of a family to believe everything a person says.
The Turian Marquis probably wasn’t that stupid.
‘Even if I only believe more than half of it anyway.’
There was no problem proceeding with what was planned.
The first button was properly inserted.
“…I have one question. Why is the duke’s level so much higher than that of other past family heads or eldest sons?”
“Because there is a difference in the level of ability displayed.”
“…Does this mean that the duke’s power was most strongly expressed?”
“I’m assuming that’s the case.”
The Marquis’ eyes lit up.
Even if you can’t completely believe what he said, what the duke said was definitely interesting.
And because of those words.
I felt a great sense of crisis along with surprise.
A power granted to the duke’s bloodline.
The one with the strongest expression of such power.
‘Even the 7th family may not be able to gain the upper hand in the future…’
What a fearsome power the Duke family had in the past!
The Turian Marquis was one of those who remembered the past.
Amazing talent and skills.
What if the power of the bloodline continues to be added to it?
‘…Even if the Three Dukes learn the Strong Dragon Style…’
It was to the point where I began to doubt whether I would be able to defeat the Duke in front of me in the future.
It was said that not only would the Duke remain in power for a very long time, but Ardan could also regain its former glory.
“This is all I can tell you.”
After speaking, the Duke waved his hand. Despite the Duke’s appearance openly issuing an order to congratulate the guests, the Marquis did not move a single step.
His eyes were sparkling even more than before.
A power passed down through blood.
If Fractal Marquis could have that power, it wouldn’t be strange if he became the first family in the kingdom, not the 7th family.
‘I have to gain that strength.’
how?
The answer was simple.
“I would like to make a suggestion.”
“proposal?”
“I want to form an alliance with the duke.”
“Are you sane to say this now?”
“Extremely sane. Even though the duke has outstanding talent, it would be very difficult to face the ‘six families’ alone.”
“I don’t think that’s what the guy who brainwashed my brother would say.”
“The people who led that work were the Dukes of Agiles and Dukes of Lacian. The core core of the 7 families is actually occupied by three ducal families. “We, the marquis, have no choice but to follow their decision.”
“so?”
“No one will believe you if you offer to form an alliance with words alone. So, as a token, I will give you my daughter.”
“…what?”
“I said I would give my daughter to the duke.”
If you don’t have a lineage, all you have to do is create a new lineage.
This was the answer given by the Turian Marquis.
