Under the deliberate operation of Viscount Lister Roald, news about the engagement between the foreign prince and Miss Myrna quickly spread throughout the territory and even the surrounding areas.
Obviously, he was deliberately creating momentum to arrange a legal identity for the two children.
After all, illegitimate children do not have the right to inherit in the aristocratic circle. What is great is that they are trained to be servants, attendants, coachmen or housekeepers.
Many aristocratic parents don't even care about the life or death of their illegitimate children, leaving them to fend for themselves without even bothering to ask a question.
In order to satisfy the curiosity of the local nobles about the "foreign prince", Viscount Lister Roald specially held a grand engagement ceremony and invited all the surrounding neighbors.
And Zuo Si's performance did not disappoint him. He soon conquered the entire aristocratic circle with his temperament, demeanor, conversation, and charm.
Because anyone who has seen this "Prince" with their own eyes can't help but sigh, this is the real nobility.
Compared with the other party, local nobles like myself are too shallow and inferior.
Whether it is clothing, food, clothing, housing, transportation, or attainments in art, literature, and philosophy, they are all subject to all-round and three-dimensional crushing.
Especially the strong aura of a superior, as well as the habits he displayed unintentionally in daily life, are enough to prove that he is a ruler who is accustomed to giving orders and making others obey him.
So no matter what their initial thoughts were, they now only feel envy and jealousy.
Because through this marriage, the Roald family not only successfully solved the hidden dangers of inheritance, but also gained a new family member. It was like a pie falling from the sky.
However, no one realized what kind of murderous intention was hidden behind everyone's happiness.
"Master, do you really want to marry Miss Mana? The two of you have not spent more than five hours chatting together."
Paris, the personal maid, looked at Zuo Si who was standing in front of the window and looking out. She was obviously shocked, puzzled and stunned by this sudden engagement.
She could not imagine that two people who had just met for the first time and had never known each other in depth could decide to be her lifelong partner with just a few words.
Zuo Si, in particular, never showed the slightest bit of admiration, happiness or joy from beginning to end.
It's as if you are not marrying another noble lady at all, but deciding what to eat for dinner.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Ah, that's right. This is the marriage of nobles. You are very uncomfortable with it and can't understand it at all, right?"
Paris smiled bitterly and replied: "I can't understand it. Because in my opinion, marriage is a lifelong matter for two people, and they must be cautious, cautious, and cautious."
"Look, this is the biggest difference between commoners and nobles.
For nobles, marriage is never a matter between two people, but a matter between two families.
Personal emotions and wishes never matter.
Because this is an obligation and a responsibility that every noble must bear.
The purpose of marriage is to find allies for the family and gain benefits.
As for the relationship after marriage, it is best if they get along well.
If they can't get along, then everyone can play their own way after the heirs are left.
Men can find mistresses, and women can find lovers.
Otherwise, where do you think there are so many love poems and love stories between ladies and knights in the court?"
Zuo Sukui did not hide anything and openly exposed the aura of the nobles and the truth behind the marriage.
Marriage, for those who are truly rich and powerful, has never had anything to do with love.
Rather, the exchange and combination of interests is to ensure that the wealth and power owned by oneself, future generations, and even the entire family will not flow out.
Or even go one step further on the original basis.
So the modern version of Cinderella drama where a poor boy marries a rich and beautiful woman and becomes a winner in life, or an ordinary girl is favored by a domineering CEO and marries into a wealthy family...
Although it is not completely impossible, the probability of it happening is even lower than winning a lottery ticket.
Even if occasionally there are a few young masters or young ladies who don't understand the importance of it and are willing to risk everything for love, but as long as the family behind them cuts off all financial sources and connections, they who have been accustomed to rich clothes and fine food since childhood will quickly succumb.
Because the quality of life is always easy to change from frugality to luxury, but difficult to change from luxury to frugality.
A person who is used to living in a big villa cannot be like the lower-class workers who live in a group rented house with an area of more than ten square meters all year round, share the same bathroom and kitchen with several people, and worry about the cost of firewood, rice, oil and salt every month.
Maybe it can be tolerated in the short term, but over time it will definitely explode.
Therefore, love and marriage where status and status are unequal usually cannot be maintained for a long time. When the passion fades away, only conflicts and resentment are left.
What's more, the contribution of aristocratic marriage is mutual.
If one party cannot give the other party what it wants, then the basis for the marriage no longer exists.
Especially in this land filled with wars, plagues, diseases, hunger, and killings, any nobles who can survive the brutal elimination are often terrifying in reality.
Because anyone who is stupid or emotional is basically dead.
"So you don't like Miss Mana at all?"
Paris was stunned as she digested the explosive information that she had never been able to access before.
Zuo Si chuckled and explained: "It doesn't matter whether I like her or not, what matters is what I can get from this marriage.
Regardless of whether you are a noble or a ruler, if you cannot abandon your emotions and measure the gains and losses of interests from an absolutely rational perspective, you are unqualified.
Because this weakness will be noticed by other nobles and exploited.
He will bring terrible war and disaster to his territory and subjects."
"I see." Paris nodded in understanding. "Then what exactly can you get from this marriage?"
"It's very simple, the inheritance of the Roald family.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Or to put it more bluntly, after the death of Viscount Lister Roald, he will indirectly control the family through Mana.
This is like when the old king of some countries dies but has no sons or brothers, so a woman can only inherit the throne.
And if her husband is smart enough, he can take this opportunity to gain huge power, and even make the queen the de facto controller of the country.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, no noble would choose to let a woman inherit the throne.
Because her marriage alone will cause a series of problems and troubles.
The most important thing is, if I refuse that night, guess how Viscount Lister Roald will react?"
Zuo Si was very interested in teaching this personal maid who had only been with him for a short time.
Because after getting along with her for a few days, he discovered that this young girl had huge potential in some aspects.
And maybe because of working in a tavern and being exposed to more people and information, he is far smarter and more clever than ordinary civilians.
"You mean that Viscount Lister Roald will kill him if he refuses?"
Paris was suddenly frightened and trembled.
She has never doubted the coldness and cruelty of nobles.
Especially when conflicts and conflicts broke out between two noble lords, the first thing they usually did was to plunder, massacre and burn down each other's villages near the border.
After another noble lord learned that his village had been burned to the ground, his first reaction was not to save the survivors, but to bring his army to burn the other side's village as revenge.
The final result is most likely that the two sides will burn several villages to each other, fight for a few times, and then shake hands and make peace.
As for the villagers who were massacred and plundered, they were just victims of the nobles venting their anger.
In addition, there are also rumors that many missing young girls and even young children were sent to noble manors and never came out of the castle.
Zuo Si nodded playfully: "That's right.
In fact, in the eyes of Viscount Lister Roald, I am always under his control.
As long as he wants, he can end my life at any time.
What's more, he hides many more secrets than you think.
To be honest, I am looking forward more and more to the day of showdown and the moment when he shows his true colors.
I believe it will be very, very interesting and exciting.”
"You treat such a dangerous thing as a game?"
Paris seemed to realize something, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
She obviously never thought that such a crazy soul was hidden in the heart of her knowledgeable, gentle, always polite and elegant master.
"Why not? After all, this world is sad enough. It is full of darkness, pain, despair and inexplicable cause and effect. Wouldn't it be boring if we didn't find some excitement and fun?"
After that, Zuo Si looked through the window at the towns and villages above and below.
In his opinion, this territory is already his own, and it is also the key to integrating into the great network of cause and effect woven by the God of the Abyss.
Although based on the scale of the sea of souls and thoughts in this world, the power possessed by the God of the Abyss cannot be compared with the Chaos God of Subspace in the Warhammer Universe, but this does not mean that it has no research value.
On the contrary, the reason for its birth and the form of existence are completely the highest level of concept god and philosophical god, and it is the dark side spawned by the common consciousness of mortals transcending individuals.
This means that it is the embodiment of evil and desire in human nature, and it is the devil that exists deepest in the hearts of everyone in this world.
And all Zuo Si has to do is touch it, understand it, replace it, become it...
When he turns the God of the Abyss into a part of himself, Zuo Si can complete his transformation and truly become a symbol of evil in the entire multiverse with the help of the power of the planeswalker's spark.
In addition, he will also gain the ability to weave his destiny.
Then small things like catching little Annie and cleaning up a meal will be as easy as eating and drinking.
In fact, Zuo Si has been trying to integrate since arriving in this world.
He can very clearly feel that when he interacts with the people around him, or even does something that may affect the so-called "key historical process", the law of cause and effect and the web of destiny that surrounds the entire world vibrate.
Obviously, the God of the Abyss felt the huge and terrifying evil in Zuo Si's heart, and was trying to bring him under his control.
Because the God of the Abyss is the God of concepts and philosophy.
This means that although it has self-awareness, it must succumb to its innate nature and has no resistance to evil people who have strong desires and ambitions in their hearts.
In other words, the God of the Abyss is essentially a ruthless wish-fulfillment machine.
Anyone with a strong enough desire can make a wish to him through something like Behelet, but the price is that he must sacrifice his own humanity and gradually become an extension of the will of the God of the Abyss.
The more humanity a person can sacrifice, the closer he is to the God of the Abyss.
This is also the biggest difference between an apostle and the hand of God.
Zuo Si was not sure whether the God of the Abyss wanted to break through the barrier between the two worlds like the four vendors in the Warhammer universe.
But it is undeniable that as time goes by, its influence and control on the real world will become stronger and stronger.
From the birth of the first God's Hand to Griffith's ascension to become the fifth God's Hand, all of this is traceable.
Without external interference, perhaps in the end all human beings will be swallowed up and become a whole.
The God of the Abyss controls everyone like the Hive Mind, or in other words, everyone is an extension of its spirit, thought and will.
Human beings will no longer have the so-called free will, and they will not even need to think. Naturally, they will no longer have negative emotions such as pain, loneliness, and anger. They will only need to leave everything to God.
Although this future sounds very scary and frightening, it is the subconscious desire of most people.
Therefore, everything the God of the Abyss does can be summarized as fulfilling human wishes.
I have to say, this is really ironic and full of black humor.
"Are you planning to replace Viscount Lister Roald as the master of this territory?"
Paris raised her head and probed cautiously.
Zuo Si turned around and walked directly in front of the maid, stretched out his hand and gently touched her face, which had become delicate and delicate after being cared for by magic ointment. He stared into the emerald green eyes like gems, then bent down and whispered in her ear.
: "The owner of this territory?
No, what I want is this country and even the entire continent.
A mere piece of territory cannot satisfy my appetite.
And you must try your best to learn the knowledge I teach you from now on.
Because if you want to keep up with me, it’s not enough just to do some work of serving tea and water.
I have higher expectations for you.
So don’t let me down, okay?”
Paris, who was a waitress in a small town tavern, couldn't stand this kind of stimulation. The muscles all over her body tightened instantly, her heart beat wildly, her face was covered with an abnormal blush, and even her breathing became rapid.
stand up.
Especially the hot breath coming out of Zuo Si's mouth when he spoke, the magnetic voice, and the huge ambition that I don't know how to describe in words...
All of this has a fatal attraction for a young girl.
Even though I know it is very dangerous!
Even if you will be burned like a moth to the flame!
She also wanted to follow the man in front of her, even if the cost was to be deceived, played with, and finally ruthlessly abandoned.
After several minutes, Paris slowly recovered from the strong emotions of excitement, anticipation and desire, and responded with a slightly trembling voice: "Don't worry, I swear I will never do it even if I die."
Let you down."
"Haha, I like your eyes and reaction now, it's very cute."
After saying that, Zuo Si stretched out a finger and pressed it on the other person's forehead, then traced it all the way down from the nose to the lips, chin, neck, and finally stopped at the position of the heart on the chest.
As a psychological master with a profound understanding of human nature, he obviously knows very well what his personal maid really desires in her heart.
To be precise, it should be what most young women desire in their hearts.
That is the excitement that is completely opposite to a comfortable life!
This is also the reason why most women actually prefer "bad men" in their hearts.
Perhaps as they grow older and mature psychologically, they will gradually compromise with reality and find an honest man to marry and live a stable life, but the desire for danger and excitement in their hearts has not disappeared.
Countless women who have been good wives and mothers for more than ten years have suddenly cheated on their wives in middle age. It is most likely that this kind of desire has been suppressed for a long time and suddenly lost control.
Therefore, in the relationship between the sexes, the more honest, conservative, responsible and introverted a man is, the less likely he is to win the favor of women.
Unless your first love is from school days, there is a high probability that you will end up being a successor.
This is just like peacocks and other animals. Males must show off their gorgeous feathers to females in order to win the right to mate.
And women are always more emotional than rational.
Just satisfying their material enjoyment is not enough, otherwise once that feeling comes, they will rush forward at all costs.
Just when Paris' eyes began to blur and her whole mind was on the verge of collapse, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly cooled down the burning fire in her heart. She quickly took a deep breath to force herself to calm down, and then retreated.
Take two steps to open a distance of two or three meters.
Just three to five seconds later, Mana, wearing a long white dress, appeared at the door of the room, spread her arms and turned around in a circle and asked, "How about this dress? Does it look good on me?"
"Of course! You are always the most beautiful in my eyes, no matter what you wear, you are always so beautiful."
Zuo Si has never been stingy with compliments like this that can win the other person's favor without having to pay anything.
What's more, the other party is only a sixteen-year-old aristocratic girl, who is at the age where it is easiest to be immersed in sweet words and unable to extricate herself.
What's more, she is about to lose all her relatives and witness the most terrifying and dark side of the entire family.
"Thanks."
A shy blush appeared on Mana's face, and she was not aware of the envy and jealousy in Paris's eyes.
The latter obviously knew very well that with his own background, he would never be able to stand beside Zuo Si as uprightly as the other party.
This has nothing to do with appearance, ability or figure, it just simply does not have aristocratic blood.
In other words, this is a job that tests reincarnation skills.
It's a pity that the maid lady is obviously not lucky enough in this regard, so she can only choose another way.
But what made her feel gratified was that compared to this noble lady, Zuo Si obviously trusted her more and even took the initiative to share many secrets.
That kind of ambiguous and needed feeling made her involuntarily feel strong satisfaction.
"You came up from downstairs just to show me this new dress?"
Zuo Si obviously noticed the reactions of the two young women in the room, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a playful smile.
Before he ignited a spark and became a planeswalker, he once heard someone say that a scumbag who rides on two or even multiple boats is essentially an animal that thinks with his lower body and cannot control his belt at all.
But after experiencing it personally, he found that this sentence was actually wrong.
In addition to being driven by primitive reproduction and continuation of their own genetic instincts, what these people really enjoy is the satisfaction brought by manipulating, deceiving, and playing with women, which is more like a disguised desire for dominance and power.
"No, my uncle asked me to inform you that he wants to talk to you privately about the future of the family."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! From the tone and attitude of this noble lady, it is easy to see that without much thought, she has completely regarded Zuo Si as the one who will spend her life with her.
people.
After all, compared to marrying those old, ugly, greedy, lustful perverts with all kinds of unknown special hobbies, Zuo Si's performance simply stood out from the crowd, like a prince charming from a fairy tale.
Coupled with the amazing charm attribute blessing, Mana will offer herself at the slightest hint.
"Oh? Now?"
Zuo Si touched his chin with a thoughtful expression, apparently sensing that Viscount Lister Roald wanted to have a showdown with him.
Because the other party has been testing them in the past few days, and deliberately took away the magic sword and armor in the name of helping to keep it.
Mana nodded quickly: "Yes.
And I'm a little worried about my mother.
She had locked herself in her room for many days, and even meals were brought to her room by servants.
My uncle said that she might be a little sad because she saw that I was getting married and remembered her dead father.
I don’t know why, but I always feel that since my father passed away, my mother has been living in great pain and has never shown a real smile.
In addition, the entire castle seems to be trying its best to hide something from top to bottom."
"Relax, don't forget that you still have me? No matter what happens, I will protect you and won't let you get hurt."
Zuo Si held up the noble girl's face and kissed her forehead.
Mana's whole body seemed to have been electrocuted. First her body tensed and stiffened, and then it quickly softened. Her head rested lightly on her broad shoulders, and an inexplicable sense of security arose in her heart.
As for the maid on the side, she was almost going crazy with jealousy. She clenched her hands into fists and wished she could push him away immediately and replace him.
But it's a pity that she can't do this.
Because this is part of Zuo Si's plan and the starting point of that huge ambition, there is absolutely no room for any surprises.
However, Zuo Si, who had a bad taste, obviously felt that this was not enough. After soothing the mood of the girl in his arms, he pushed her directly to Paris: "Mana will be left to you. Remember to take good care of her, it's best before I come back.
Don't run around."
"clear!"
The maid resisted the burning flames of jealousy and forced a smile in response.
"You two should get along well."
Zuo Si said these words with a half-smile, turned around and walked out, completely ignoring the weird atmosphere between the two women behind him.
After all, the most important rule of being a scumbag is to never be internally conflicted, but to let the women around you become internally conflicted and constantly compete for favor in order to please yourself.
Just like a PUA, a man will always show how popular he is, and then let his suitors, spare tires and lickers compete with each other to give him money and gifts.
After passing through the long and narrow corridors and stairs, Zuo Si was led by a servant to the underground level of the castle.
This was originally a place used to imprison criminals, torture and torture prisoners, so a large amount of dried and solidified black blood can be seen on the floor and walls.
All kinds of torture instruments are also available, as if telling the terrible things that happened here.
But right now, the cell is empty, with only dirty rats and cockroaches occasionally crawling out of dark corners, and then quickly disappearing into hidden corners.
"What do you think of this place?"
Viscount Lister Roald, who was standing outside one of the iron fences, suddenly asked in a confused manner.
"Are you referring to this dungeon, or to the instruments of torture?"
Zuo Si, who had just walked down the stairs, asked very casually.
You must know that my father was once a cruel lord known far and wide.
He enjoys torturing and abusing those who dare to disobey him and takes great pleasure in doing so.
The things you see were built during his reign.
When we were young, my brother and I were forced to watch the brutal scenes of prisoners being executed, which left a huge psychological shadow.
Because of this, after his father died, his brother decided to become a kind and kind lord.
Not only did he free all the prisoners, but he also gave them a large sum of money as compensation and abolished the harsh decrees issued during his father's reign.
No matter from which perspective, my brother is a good man, a rare noble lord with high morals and conscience.
But the world always seems to have an inexplicable malice towards good people.
Instead of receiving any gratitude for what he did, he was regarded as a symbol of weakness by everyone.
Not only did other surrounding noble lords begin to look covetously to annex and occupy this land, but even the civilians in the territory began to no longer obey the lord's orders in awe.
In some places, there was even violence to resist the payment of taxes.
How, does it sound ironic?
A kind lord would end up like this, but a cruel lord could win the respect of everyone.
Finally, amidst internal and external troubles, a powerful neighbor gathered thousands of troops to attack us.
My brother was completely defeated in that war and even lost his life.
If I hadn't stood up to turn the tide and repel the enemy, the entire family would have ceased to exist.
From then on, I began to gradually change from hating my father to understanding him, and even becoming him.
Because in this turbulent world, if you want to avoid being eaten by others, you must show your fangs and claws to prove that you are a beast.
Even if you are not a beast, you still have to pretend to be a beast.
Otherwise, those real beasts will pounce on you, kill you and eat you."
Hearing these words, Zuo Si immediately smiled and shook his head and responded: "The law of the jungle is the law of the jungle, and it is also the inevitable result after the collapse of order.
I don't think this root has much to do with kindness or cruelty, but rather depends on faith in law and order.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! If the king can severely punish every noble who provokes a war without authorization, deprive them of their titles and territories and demote them to civilians, I believe no one will dare to take risks easily.
But unfortunately there are not many monarchs on this road who can do this.
The long-term war has intensified chaos and disorder, making people more inclined to measure strength and weakness through the simplest and most direct violence.
Your father ruled with brutality, displaying violence to keep the people of his territory in awe and intimidating other noble lords around him.
But your brother did not clearly realize the harsh environment he was in.
The reason for his failure was not kindness but stupidity and incompetence."
"Stupid and incompetent?
Ha ha ha ha!
You summed it up very well!
My brother is indeed a stupid and incompetent lord.
Maybe he shouldn't have been the heir to the family from the beginning, but his good guy.
I'm glad you can agree with me on this.
After all, kind-hearted people cannot survive in this cruel and dark world."
Viscount Lister Roald laughed happily, while his eyes showed naked and undisguised appreciation.
There is no doubt that Zuo Si's speech was very much to his liking.
Especially the evaluation of his dead brother was exactly what he had always wanted to say but was not comfortable saying it.
"Isn't that why you called me here just to talk about this?"
Zuo Si picked up a pair of pliers specially used for tooth extraction from the table and looked very relaxed, not affected by the eerie atmosphere in the dungeon at all.
Viscount Lister Roald shook his head: "No, of course not, I just want to confirm what kind of person you are.
After all, you have always given people the impression of being so polite, educated, and personable. You seem to never be irritated and always have a light smile on your face.
But now I can be sure that you are very similar to me at heart, and you are both a pragmatist who puts interests first.
Now, it's time to show you the true face of this family.
I hope you won’t be frightened when you see it.”
As the last word blurted out, Viscount Lister Roald's body began to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye. The clothes on his body were completely torn in just a few seconds, and a large amount of thick hair grew on the surface of his skin.
It has become like a lion, and the vertical pupils of its eyes are emitting a creepy light in the dim environment.
But unlike a real lion, his body remains in a standing posture, and his lower body has several arms covered with suckers, and translucent tubes can be vaguely seen at the end.
There is no doubt that any ordinary person would be frightened and faint to death after seeing this scene.
But Zuo Si, who already knew the truth, didn't show the slightest hint of movement. Instead, he looked up and down with an expression of interest.
"You don't seem surprised? Or have you seen other apostles like me?"
A strange color appeared on Viscount Lister Roald's ferocious and terrifying face.
Because of this, it was the first time he didn't see the shock, fear and trembling reactions on the other person's face after the transformation.
That kind of indifference and calmness made him feel vaguely uneasy.
"No, I've never seen a creature like you before."
Zuo Si gave a very straightforward negative answer.
"Then why can you keep calm? Aren't you afraid that I will kill you or eat you?"
Viscount Lister Roald suddenly leaned down and opened his bloody mouth full of fangs.
The good news is that his threats are obviously of no use.
Zuo Si answered straightforwardly: "If you want to kill me or eat me, there is no need to waste time and energy on such a grand engagement ceremony. And even if you want to kill me, you have to wait until Mana gets pregnant and gives birth to a healthy child.
"
"good!
I am more and more satisfied with you now.
There are not many sane people who can keep calm when seeing the apostles on this road. Most of them will instantly break down and run away.
He is truly worthy of being a prince who came from a foreign country and received royal education.”
Viscount Lister Roald revealed a hint of appreciation in his tone.
"Thanks for the compliment.
I don't think there's any point in running away at this time.
Now that you have revealed your true identity, does that mean you can tell me what exactly happened?"
Zuo Si obviously wanted to continue to explore the other party's heart hidden under the monster appearance.
Because almost everyone who becomes an apostle will most likely have a story filled with sadness, pain, and despair.
The struggle of human nature in these stories, and the final ending of being swallowed up by evil and darkness, will make him experience the ultimate pleasure.
"If you really want to know, then come with me."
Viscount Lister Roald quickly returned from the apostle form to the human form, and turned a torch on the wall with his naked body.
Rumble, rumble!
Along with vibrations and sounds, a spiral upward staircase opened on the dungeon wall.
The two of them climbed up the stairs one after another until they passed through the bookshelf and entered the room in the tower.
As soon as he crossed the threshold, Zuo Si saw an extremely explosive scene.
I saw Mana's mother, Narberal, naked and shackled to the bed with a big belly as if she had been pregnant for ten months. There were more than a dozen cribs around her, all of which were filled with babies and children from Liszt Rowe.
A lion monster that is very close to the apostle of Viscount De.
The only difference is that they don't have wriggling tentacles on their lower bodies.
And the gender of all babies is male without exception.
The oldest among them is already close to one year old in height and weight.
Just as Zuo Si's eyes were attracted to these semi-apostles, Mrs. Narbera, who was tied to the bed, suddenly let out a painful scream, and then her whole body struggled violently, as if she was suffering from some great pain.
Two men in the room who looked young and dressed as knights immediately stepped forward and forced her legs apart.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In less than thirty seconds, a strong little monster crawled out of its mother's body.
The people responsible for the delivery quickly picked up scissors and cut the umbilical cord as quickly as possible, then bathed the newborn baby and put it in one of the empty cribs.
"No! Don't come here! Please let me go! I can't do it anymore! Let me die! Let me die!"
After seeing Viscount Lister Roald, Mrs. Narberal collapsed and shouted in an extremely weak voice.
Apparently, all the demi-apostles in the room were conceived by her.
"So this is why Mrs. Narbera has been closing her doors to guests recently?"
Zuo Si asked in a tone without any emotion.
Viscount Lister Roald grinned with a cruel smile: "Ah, yes, it's all thanks to the bottle of magic medicine you provided that restored her fertility."
"Why does it have to be her? Can't other women do it?" Zuo Si continued to ask.
"Sorry, no.
Because I have conducted experiments on hundreds of women, and without exception, they will form deformed stillbirths in their abdomens, and eventually one will die and two will die.
Maybe only female members of the family can give birth to offspring for me.
Mana is a good choice.
But I can't risk it.
If she were also transformed into a maternal body, the Roald family would be completely cut off from their bloodline.
After all, all my descendants age and die very quickly.
In just a few years, they will transform from babies into old men without any ability to reproduce.
I think this may be the price to pay for becoming an apostle."
When Viscount Lister Roald looked at his brother's widow, there was no trace of sympathy or pity in his eyes. He didn't even seem to be looking at a person at all, but at a tool.
"So my mission is to produce more offspring with Mana to continuously expand the size of the family bloodline, so that you can obtain more and better mothers?"
When he said these words, a cold and sharp light flashed in Zuo Si's eyes.
Viscount Lister Roald nodded without thinking: "You guessed it right.
Whether it's a boy or a girl, the more the better.
When they grow up, they get married and have children, which will double the number of family members.
At that time, I will have an inexhaustible matrix, and through them, I will create an unrivaled apostolic army to sweep across the entire continent and establish an immortal thousand-year empire.
I want you to sleep in the same bed as Myrna from tonight."
"Hehehehe! So in your eyes, I am just a fertility tool?"
Zuo Si let out a burst of laughter that he didn't know whether it was self-deprecating or mocking the other person's overestimation.
"Otherwise, what do you think you are?
ally?
Family member?
No, no, no, I don't need these things.
Because an army composed of descendants is enough to tear apart any enemy who dares to block the way forward.
Of course, as a reward for your contribution, I can promise to leave you a rich fief in the future empire, and even allow you to serve as my deputy.
It all depends on your willingness to cooperate.
Please make your choice now!”
As the last word blurted out, Viscount Lister Roald transformed into an apostle again and looked down at Zuo Si.
If he dared to show his cards at this time, he was obviously convinced that the other party would not dare to reject him.
