From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

After the successful breakthrough, Krober was not satisfied with the status quo and stopped practicing. On the contrary, he continued to sit on the bed and absorbed the magic power floating around him with all his concentration.

Unknowingly, the sky gradually became brighter, and it was not until the next morning that Krober stopped practicing.

He stood up slowly and put on the dragon's breath knight's plate armor, which symbolized his identity.

It is worth mentioning that since Krober plans to break through to the realm of the Great Knight in the near future, Sam and Will will not be needed, so they are specially arranged to help Foster.

After hearing the news that Krober had begun to break through the Great Knight, Foster worked harder and harder in training. Now he almost devotes most of his time to training every day.

For all this, Krober saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart.

In his opinion, it is undoubtedly a good thing that the Foster Knights can continue to grow stronger.

After getting dressed, Krober carefully combed his hair in the mirror.

After all, in front of the Grand Duke, no detail can be ignored.

In fact, it is often these subtleties that best reveal a person's true character.

Krober knows this very well and naturally does not want to have a negative impact on himself because of these small details.

After packing up everything he could, Krober walked towards the door of the Grand Duke's room and waited quietly at the door, waiting for the Grand Duke's instructions.

This station lasted until about eight or nine o'clock in the morning.

With Archduke Veronica's perception, she could naturally feel that Krober had been standing guard at the door very early.

But this did not stop Veronica from staying in bed.

It's not that she's lazy, but she just likes the feeling of the bed and pillows being so soft that she can be rubbed into them.

This is one of the bad habits that Veronica has had since she was young. (Hmm...same problem as Krober.)

She wouldn't leave her bed until about nine o'clock in the morning to handle official duties.

On the day when Krober went to St. Gold's Castle to take the oath, if Vivian hadn't told her in advance, she might still be lying in bed at that time.

Again, she was not staying in bed, she just didn't want to leave the soft embrace of the bed.

Under normal circumstances, she would handle official duties in bed in the morning, and it would be no problem for her to do her daily exercises in bed.

And at her level, there is actually no practical use in continuing to accumulate fighting spirit. In comparison, the dragon knight will pay more attention to the in-depth understanding and flexible application of the rules. Its ability is no longer limited to "fighting spirit". A single energy field category.

However, after nine o'clock every night, Veronica must leave her room to deal with various other chores, such as summoning subordinates to understand the progress of the work, going to play with Vivian (crossed out) to cultivate and work with giants. The feelings between dragons, coordinating and resolving conflicts between nobles, and seriously thinking about which laws and regulations currently have loopholes or deficiencies, whether they need further revision and improvement, etc.

"Sir Clobber."

Hearing the sound coming from the room, Krober did not hesitate, turned the door handle, pushed the door open a little, and asked:

"Then I'm coming in, Your Majesty the Grand Duke!"

She didn't hear a response, which was normal. As a knight, as long as she didn't hear an order to refuse, she could enter the Grand Duke's room. This was a rule taught to her by an unknown and kind-hearted maid.

Opening the door, a sense of luxury hits your face.

The first thing that catches the eye is a huge golden dragon-headed flag hanging on the wall. It shines with dazzling light, as if to show people the dignity and majesty of the owner.

What really attracted Krober's attention was the huge soft bed measuring four meters by four meters.

"OMG!"

He couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

Looking at the feet, the carpet is obviously made of the fur of some kind of phantom beast. The entire rug exudes a faint magical glow, adding a mysterious and enchanting atmosphere to the entire room. Not only is this rug beautiful, but the material it was made of must have been extremely valuable.

As for the seemingly ordinary furniture, they are actually made of expensive jade trees.

This magical tree originates from the Jade Valley of the Jade Kingdom. It is a mutated species influenced by the breath of the Jade Dragon.

The entire body of the jade tree shows a dreamlike white and emerald green tone, just like jade, hence its name.

Every piece of furniture made from the jade tree is a work of art, let alone an entire set.

Although its price cannot be said to be priceless, it is definitely not affordable by ordinary nobles.

After briefly looking at the furniture in the Grand Duke's room, Krober no longer looked up, but lowered his head to salute and say hello to the Grand Duke.

"Um……"

It was obvious that Archduke Veronica had not yet recovered from the state of just waking up, and she was confused when she responded, not even noticing that she had called them in.

"..."

For a moment, the scene fell into silence.

In the end, it was Krober who took the initiative to break the awkward situation and spoke up.

After all, as the leader's most considerate subordinate, I naturally cannot let the leader take the initiative to find topics. This kind of thing definitely needs him to take the initiative to mention it.

"Sir, after I broke through the Great Knight, the color of my fighting spirit changed greatly. It looks a bit like the color of your fighting spirit. Do you know the reason for this?"

"Hmm... Hmm?!"

Grand Duke Veronica, who was still in a daze, became alert instantly after seeing the red-gold fighting spirit in Krober's hand.

Her bright eyes stared at the fighting spirit, and even her white-white arches slightly raised, showing her curiosity and surprise.

In fact, it was no wonder that Veronica was surprised, mainly because her unique red-gold fighting spirit would appear on someone else, which really made her feel like someone had stolen her account in front of her.

However, after being surprised for a while, Veronica quickly came back to her senses, and couldn't help but think of the possibility of dragon knights infecting humans proposed by the Council of Scholars at that time.

The main content is:

The dragon can infect the surrounding environment to produce ores or gems that match its own elements, and the dragon knight will naturally have some of the same physique as the dragon after merging with the dragon.

The dragon will infect the surrounding environment, but the dragon knight will not.

After the investigation and research of the Council of Scholars, they found that the target of the dragon knight's infection was actually human beings. However, unlike the dragon, the dragon knight's infection itself was not very aggressive.

Knights who have a certain level of fighting spirit will not be easily infected, and their own fighting spirit will instinctively resist the magic factor that is inconsistent with their own elements.

Krober is purely because his own fighting spirit is of high quality and can accommodate a small part of the red gold fighting spirit factor.

More importantly, Veronica herself has no intention of infecting him, which allows Krober to absorb the magic factor overflowing from Veronica's normal breathing state without any accidents.

If this is replaced by someone with a lower quality of fighting spirit, let alone absorption and digestion, I am afraid that he will be injured by the violent magic factor the moment it is absorbed into the body.

The infection of the dragon knight is not a good thing. They will slowly assimilate all the humans around them, slowly turn them into accessories under their fighting spirit, gradually lose their reason and soul, until they finally become a dead object similar to a human-shaped ore.

This is why Krober was so lucky that he was not infected, and he also used this power to successfully break through to the Great Knight and awakened new characteristics.

Even so, Veronica could not continue to allow Krober to stay by her side.

It was true that she had not thought of the so-called dragon knight infection theory before.

After all, she had been a dragon knight for so many years, and there were so many people around her, but none of them had been infected.

So after feeling that Krober was absorbing her overflowing magic factor, she did not stop him. Fortunately, it is not too late to stop it now.

So after careful consideration, Grand Duke Veronica planned to give Krober a fiefdom and send him out to be a lord.

Although it might be a bit uncomfortable not to see her little rose in the future, Veronica did not want to wipe out the future genius of a principality because of her own reasons.

In fact, sending him out was really a decision made by Veronica after careful consideration.

First of all, Krober has proved his loyalty, loyalty to her and loyalty to the country. He is a trustworthy knight and must be a trustworthy vassal.

Second, Krober's talent is among the best in the eyes of the knowledgeable Grand Duke Veronica. This kind of loyal genius must be cultivated carefully by anyone, unless he is a fool.

Third, although Krober is very talented, this world cannot solve all problems with high talent. It also requires a pair of eyes that see through the essence of events, a rational and intelligent brain, and a unique personality charm.

Krober is still lacking in these points now. If Veronica keeps him by her side, it is not helping him, but harming him!

For the sake of the country and herself, both publicly and privately, Veronica will not choose to selfishly keep Krober by her side to affect his future, but choose to let him go and let the bloody reality hone him.

When I was young, I took Vivian to travel around, and finally became a dragon knight after going through thousands of hardships and obstacles.

If Krobel wants to become a talent, he must also go through hardships.

Veronica did not realize that her feelings for Krobel had gradually changed from "a beautiful pet" at the beginning to "an excellent and loyal genius worthy of cultivation".

"Sir Krobel, I called you here this time because I actually have a task for you..."
