Lord: More Children, More Blessings, Build A Family Of Gods

Night falls.

Inside the noble garden of the royal palace, the lights are bright.

Although the royal banquet is still nine days away.

But with so many nobles gathered in one place, it is natural that they cannot just wait idly.

Therefore.

Several dukes took the lead and had a real exchange.

Noble garden.

The central palace.

Over a hundred high-ranking nobles, including counts and above, gathered in small groups, chatting and conversing.

Through this banquet, they constantly expand their social circles.

And Rennes.

He had no intention of wasting time talking to these hypocrites.

He sat alone in a corner of the banquet, leisurely drinking and enjoying himself.

However.

This state did not last long.

A few minutes later.

A man in a purple robe walked in.

This person was none other than the Crown Prince Karogor, who had a connection with Rennes. "487"

The other nobles present also recognized the identity of this Crown Prince.

Their eyes lit up.

They approached and conversed with him one after another.

Hoping to establish some kind of relationship with this Crown Prince.

And the fact that this Crown Prince appeared at this banquet.

Clearly, he was seeking the support of more high-ranking nobles to solidify his position as the Crown Prince.

Therefore.

He didn't put on any airs.

He immediately engaged in conversation with the nobles who gathered around him.

Until the Crown Prince happened to notice Rennes, who was sitting in the corner, drinking alone.

"Duke Rennes, long time no see."

Amidst the astonished gazes of the other nobles, Karogor walked straight towards Rennes and warmly greeted him.

"Your Highness, Prince Karogor, I have seen him."

Seeing the Crown Prince coming over to greet him, Rennes naturally couldn't be impolite.

Immediately, he put down his wine glass and replied.

After exchanging pleasantries,

Karogor showed no intention of leaving.

He kept finding topics to chat with Rennes.

Obviously, the previous failure did not affect his determination to win over Rennes.

And Rennes naturally understood the intentions of the Crown Prince.

However,

Since the other party was so enthusiastic, he couldn't reject him from a distance.

He could only chat casually.

While Rennes was chatting with Prince Karogor,

The other nobles were in an uproar.

"Who is this? The Crown Prince is so enthusiastic towards him!"

"I don't know! I've never seen this person at a high-level noble banquet before."

Everyone was speculating about Rennes's identity, which made the future heir apparent value him so much.

Some clever people had a vague idea in their minds.

After all,

It wasn't difficult to guess.

Someone who could make the Crown Prince value him so much and was a newcomer.

Only the recently appointed Duke Rennes fit these two conditions.

Thinking of this,

Those nobles who guessed Rennes's identity suddenly brightened up.

They immediately decided to get to know him better later.

After all, he was a powerful Sky Knight at the top of the Kingdom of Lance.

If they could establish a connection, it would be a valuable network.

However,

Before these people could take action,

A golden-haired young man dressed in luxurious clothes and exuding an arrogant aura pushed open the door and entered.

This blond young man seems to be specifically looking for someone.

He scans the surroundings.

After spotting Karogor's figure, the blond young man strides over.

"Brother! I didn't expect you to attend this banquet too."

"Who is this? Can you introduce me?"

With a fake smile, the blond young man forcefully interrupts Karogor and Rennes' conversation.

"Alexis, are you provoking me?"

Seeing the blond young man's deliberate disruption, Karogor's previously relaxed expression disappears.

He becomes somewhat gloomy instead.

"Provoking? Of course not!"

"I just wanted to 'care' about you a little."

"After all, your most important supporter, General Landon, recently switched to my side."

"My dear brother, if you can't even keep your most important supporter by your side, it's quite pitiful and laughable, isn't it?"

Ignoring Karogor's change in expression, Alexis laughs and says.

Upon hearing this,

Karogor clenches his fists, his face becoming so dark that it seems like water might drip from it.

Meanwhile,

Rennes on the side also realizes who this blond young man is.

His name is Alexis.

And he is in direct opposition to the Crown Prince.

Besides the Third Prince, who aspires to the throne, who else could it be?!

Based on their conversation just now...

This Third Prince has already caused the Crown Prince Karogor's most important supporter to defect.

He has successfully gained the upper hand.

"Heh! Alexis, don't forget! The woman you liked since childhood, Iber, is now my wife."

"You can't even have the woman you love, so what qualifications do you have to say such things to me?"

Suppressing his anger, Karogor immediately retorts.

"Kar! O! Gor! Say it again."

Upon hearing this, Alexis, who had previously looked smug, seems to have been struck in a sore spot, his face turning pale.

There is full anger in his words.

I wish I could tear Karogor into a thousand pieces.

"What if I say it again?"

Karogor said coldly, "I'm speaking the truth! Ibele is my wife, and I sleep with her every day..."

"You!"

Upon hearing this, Yaxis trembled with anger.

Immediately, he made a move to draw his sword.

However...

The nobles present obviously couldn't let the two princes fight here.

In case one of the princes got injured...

Or even accidentally died...

At that time, they would inevitably be implicated and face the king's wrath.

Everyone hurried forward and separated the two princes.

They didn't start fighting immediately.

Karogor and Yaxis, whose minds were clouded by anger, suddenly calmed down.

They glared at each other fiercely and then left separately.

The exchange banquet returned to its original calm.

Rennes, who was on the side, didn't say a word throughout.

He just watched silently.

After all...

He didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.

Nor did he want to be caught up in the troublesome vortex of the battle for the throne.

After the two princes left...

Other nobles approached Rennes one after another, wanting to establish a relationship with him.

Feeling overwhelmed, Rennes casually responded a few times and chose to leave early.

In the following nine days...

To avoid the harassment of these people, Rennes simply stopped attending the exchange banquets.

He stayed in his room every day, perfecting the magic circle he had recently constructed.

Ten days later...

The royal banquet ordered by the king began as scheduled...
