From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Now it seems that the time for Krober to break through and become an earth knight is coming soon.

As long as he is provided with a quiet and peaceful training environment, he can achieve the second transformation of fighting spirit and successfully advance to the realm of earth knight.

Of course, if Krober aspires to be promoted to earl, then the family must have a second earth knight, and his current territory is not enough to support him to become an earl.

In view of Krober's current situation of being alone, I am afraid that he can only rely on marriage or recruiting external talents to expand the family's power.

And Victor is one of Krober's ideal candidates.

Although Victor has some minor shortcomings, such as bad taste, carelessness, and freedom.

But he has excellent training talent, and he is upright and has a corresponding overall concept.

Therefore, Krober believes that Victor deserves to be absorbed into his family.

However, what specific method should be adopted to absorb Victor, and under what name, these issues need to be carefully considered by Krober.

The most appropriate way is to let him marry his third sister Christina.

However, Kroeber did not want to repeat the old path that his grandfather, Marquis Daniel, had taken, so he decided to use another method to attract Victor to join his camp:

That is to recruit Victor by recruiting followers.

After all the assessments are completed, if Victor is indeed fine and has obtained the consent of Christina herself, then the marriage between the two will be considered.

Christina is not just Kroeber's sister, she is also a very important person in his life who gave him the few family affections when he was young.

Therefore, he very much hopes that his sister can live a happy life.

Even if his sister is unwilling to accept the marriage and just wants to be single for the rest of her life, it's okay. Kroeber will respect her ideas.

And Kroeber can also find other ways to strengthen the entire family.

War, annexation, slavery.

As long as he is strong enough, he has countless ways to strengthen the family.

Of course, if his sister has someone she likes, he will definitely express his support and approval without hesitation, provided that the person is reliable.

After all, for Krober, the most important thing is always the family's interests and his sister's personal happiness.

Krober sorted out his thoughts and told Victor briefly.

"Although I can't help you in this regard, I can provide you with a way out.

If you have nowhere to go, go to Black Feather Island to find Knight Foster. He will arrange a ship to Amethyst Island for you. After that, I will let you become my follower."

Victor laughed when he heard Krober's words.

"We are both great knights, why should I become your follower?"

The two had always been getting along as equals before, and even when Krober was still a formal knight at the beginning, Victor's status was slightly higher.

But this time, why did Victor regard himself as Krober's follower?

Such a gap made Victor feel a little difficult to accept.

"What's so hard to accept? I've already touched the threshold of the Earth Knight. I'll be able to undergo the second transformation of my fighting spirit in the next few days.

By then, I'll be the Earth Knight. It'll be easy for me to find a great knight to be my follower."

Krober read Victor's thoughts from his expression.

"But you're already the Knight Commander of the Dragon Breath Knights. You already have the title of Knight. Can't you find a way to get some military merits and exchange them for a Knight's rank from the Grand Duke?"

Victor's eyes darkened. It was obvious that Krober's words touched his heart.

"No more military merits... I've used all the military merits I've accumulated to exchange for cultivation resources. Otherwise, I wouldn't have reached the Great Knight realm at such a young age."

Victor is 27 years old this year, ten years older than Krober, and his talent is considered good.

Krober waved his hand, indicating that he had no other way to help him.

"Well, after all, I still have to thank you, my friend. Many people I knew before were no longer as enthusiastic as before after hearing that I had been kicked out of the house.

Even if there were, they all saw my strength as a great knight and wanted me to work as a thug in their family.

Well... you are the same, but compared to them, I will still choose you because you are the only one willing to help me.

But I hope you don't tell everyone in the Dragon Breath Knights that I was kicked out of the house. They don't know about it yet."

Krober frowned when he heard this.

"Why don't you tell everyone? You should know that their backgrounds are much higher than those friends you knew before.

If you seek their help, maybe this matter will be easy to solve."

This is the truth. Only a very small number of small nobles and civilians can join the Dragon Breath Knights.

The rest are the descendants of the major families. Each of them has a high status and rights. Not to mention solving the Sunflower Family, but at least they can provide Victor with some help within their ability.

"No..." Victor smiled.

"I still don't want to trouble everyone too much. It's better for me to handle my troubles myself."

This is one of the advantages that Kroeber admires about Victor.

Thinking of this, Kroeber finally gave in.

"If you really have nowhere to go in the end, come to me, at least you can still get a knight position.

And I will provide you with a chance to meet my third sister, as for whether you can grasp it, it depends on you."

Now Krober has gradually changed his suspicious character, or in other words, he does not let this suspicion show up particularly obviously.

For Victor, he is willing to give a chance.

But similarly, this opportunity will not be given to only Victor. He only promised to give Victor a chance to meet, as for the others, he would not guarantee it.

And Victor is only the first one, as his vassal and followers increase.

Christina's vision will become more and more picky, and Krober can't control who she chooses at that time.

In short, Christina is like a guest who comes to eat, and Victor and others are the food, and Krober is the chef.

What Christina wants to eat is up to her, and Krober only needs to display all his dishes for her to choose.

And what Krober promised Victor is an opportunity to show it.

After understanding what Klober meant, Victor gave Klober a grateful hug, which made Klober feel sick.

"Don't touch me, you're disgusting! If you have a problem with your sexual orientation, I will withdraw my promise just now."

This sentence broke the sentimental atmosphere, but made the relationship between the two people closer, at least Victor thought so.

And Klober seemed to be really disgusted.

The two chatted for a while, and then said goodbye and got busy with their own things.

Entering the inner castle of Saint Jin Castle, Klober arranged his guards outside, and entered the throne hall alone to meet the Grand Duke.

The throne hall was still empty, and there was no one else in the whole hall except Grand Duke Veronica.

Oh, except Klober.

"Greetings to His Excellency the Grand Duke."

Klober knew that Grand Duke Veronica did not like too complicated etiquette in private, so he used the simplest knight's etiquette to greet the Grand Duke.

Grand Duke Veronica also shifted her gaze from the battle report in her hand to Krober.

It was strange, but whenever she saw Krober, her mood would inexplicably improve.

She had been following the battle between the Emerald Kingdom and the Mountain Copper Kingdom these days.

In the border area, the Emerald Kingdom was almost beaten by the Mountain Copper Kingdom. Not to mention losing cities and land, it was beaten so badly that it couldn't raise its head.

This was under the premise that neither side sent out dragon knights.

If dragon knights were sent out, I'm afraid the Emerald Kingdom would be no match for the Mountain Copper Kingdom.
