Noble Emblem

Sophia was born in a side family, but in many cases, it doesn't matter whether you are from the main family or not, as long as you are strong enough.

Aristotle's family did have two master-level demon sorcerers, but both of them were nearly a hundred years old and were about to die. And Sophia is only in her early thirties. After becoming a master, due to the increase in age and the activation of the succubus bloodline, her lifespan should be around 150 years old, and she may have a chance to become a legend.

Compared with the two old people, Sophia's future is too bright.

At this time, are the so-called collateral and direct lines important?

The carriage stopped in front of a manor. The three of them got out of the carriage and entered the manor.

As a long-established family that has existed for hundreds of years, Aristotle is very well-established and also very low-key. Like the last battle for the throne, they stayed calm and tried to reduce their presence to as low as possible. lowest.

Then, he escaped the battle for the throne without any loss.

Perhaps for many families, opportunities also breed in crises, but Aristotle does not need opportunities. They have almost reached the pinnacle that a noble family can reach.

Unless they want to be royalty.

Of course they have had such thoughts, but there were ancestral precepts three hundred years ago that strictly warned not to expect such things, otherwise disaster would happen. The words of the ancestral precepts are very harsh, very severe, and there seems to be other advice behind it, but only the head of the family can see it.

Moreover, every head of the family will strictly abide by the secret ancestral instructions after seeing it. If someone in the family has such an idea, they will first be warned. If they still don't give up, they will be expelled from the family.

The three of them entered the manor, and Sophia became the host and greeted Beta. Helen looked a little nervous on the side, looking up at Beta from time to time, and then lowering her head.

The three of them ate, drank and chatted leisurely, with servants waiting beside them.

Sophia quite liked this situation. Although she still loved her husband very much, it was good to spend some time with Beta like this occasionally. Besides, there is Helen next to her, so she is not afraid of any rumors.

Not long after, the housekeeper came over and said that the head of the family invited Beta to meet. In addition, he also hoped that Sophia could come there too.

The two stood up and were taken to a study by the housekeeper.

As soon as Beta entered, a middle-aged man sitting on a chair stood up, bowed slightly and saluted: "I am very happy that the Pope of the Wealth Cult can visit our family in person. This matter is worth recording in our family records. , remembered for tens of thousands of years.”

"Master Aristotle, you are too polite." Beta waved his hand.

The three of them sat down one after another. As the host, Aristotle naturally had the words to say: "His Majesty the Pope, do you have anything to do with your visit to our family?"

It's no wonder that he asked directly. Beta's reputation is now very loud among the noble families of Hollevin. Regardless of strength, ability, or character... Dare to challenge the eldest prince, and after the eldest prince became king, he did not dare to retaliate. Now he is the pope, and there are miracles. Which family members see him, not Trembling!

"I asked Beta...the Pope to come and take a look at our summoning magic circle."

Sophia rushed to answer for Beta, but she was so used to getting along with Beta that she called him by his first name familiarly.

The head of the family was named Levin. He heard the feeling and raised his brows slightly, but pretended not to know anything: "I see. Here, I would like to express my gratitude again."

He stood up and bowed to Beta again.

The man in front of him is the Pope. Although the Wealth God Sect is now a small religion, in terms of status, Beta is essentially the same as a king. And even if it is a small sect, the energy of the Wealth God Sect is greater than that of the Aristotle family.

Moreover, after Woking performed a miracle in Hollavin some time ago, more and more people now believe in the Cult of Wealth. Although most are businessmen, many women have also come to believe in her.

The reason is that the teachings of the Wojin Cult have been spread. In addition to the principles of life, many women are surprised to find that in the teachings of the Wealth Cult, women have a very high status. Moreover, there is also the protection of marriage.

For example, if a man wants to marry a new wife because he has changed his mind, and the woman has done nothing wrong, and the woman believes in the religion of wealth, as long as she makes an oath in front of the goddess statue for help, she will get feedback from the goddess. After confirming that the matter is true, The Waking Temple will send people to help the woman get one-third of the man's property.

Considered divorce compensation.

Wojin is the goddess who controls wealth. It is easy to do this kind of thing, as long as the money circulates according to a certain intention.

Men naturally don't like this kind of thing, but if women secretly become religious, there is nothing they can do about it.

The most important thing is that now Wojin is a god of neutrality and order, and no one can accuse her of being an evil god. No one can explicitly say that her teachings should be banned without any valid reason.

It can only be contained secretly.

It's just that the spread of Wojin's teachings is faster.

Many businessmen now put small statues of Woking in their homes and pray for a while from time to time.

As the pope, Beta's status also rose with the tide.

"How about we go take a look at the summoning magic circle now?" Sophia looked at her family leader: "Pope Beta is also very pressed for time."

Levin nodded in agreement and said that he had not thought of it at the moment, which was a slight to the distinguished guest.

The three of them passed through the secret passage and entered the basement of the manor.

A huge magic circle appeared in front of him, but only half of the magic lines were on, and the other half had no magic reaction.

"More than a month ago, there was a problem with the magic circle." Levin said: "This magic circle was built by our ancestors. It is very complicated. Our descendants only know how to use it, but do not know how to maintain it. It may have been too long. It’s related, the magic circle is damaged.”

Beta walked around the magic array and then said: "The magic array is not damaged naturally, but man-made. Under normal circumstances, any perfect magic array can operate without being damaged by external forces or terrain. Thousands of years, yours, can’t last more than four hundred years at most.”

Levin's face turned gloomy: "Man-made damage? The people who can enter here are all core members of our family. Who are they!"

Sophia's focus is on the other side: "Can it be fixed?"

The two people have obviously different ways of thinking. As the head of the family, Levin's first priority is to maintain the stability of the family. And Sophia is a sideline and a married daughter. This time she came back to see the situation and see if there was anything she could do to help. Naturally, she wanted to get things done quickly so that she could go back to her own home to live her life.

She didn't want to pay attention to the internal fighting in her family.

"Yes." Beta nodded: "But it requires a lot of magic materials, about three hundred gold coins or more."

As soon as these words came out, the two people next to them were obviously relieved.

"I will make a list later, and you just need to send someone to buy magic materials. By the way, I hope you can collect the materials within three days. I will have other important matters to deal with in three days."

Levin immediately said: "No problem, His Majesty the Pope, we will never waste your time."

The three of them left the basement. Helen was still waiting in the hall. When she saw Beta coming out, she immediately lowered her head shyly.

Sophia wanted to take Beta to the guest room to rest in person, but Levin on the side said: "Helen, take the Pope to the biggest and best room to rest. Sophia, come with me. There are some things I want to talk to you about." .”

Helen led Beta up to the fourth floor with a shy look on her face.

Sophia and Levin arrived in the study.

Sophia sat down and said, "Uncle, if you have anything to do, please just tell me."

Levin looked Sophia up and down and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that among the younger generation, you are the one with the best achievements. If I had known this, I wouldn't have allowed you to marry outside."

"Thank you for the compliment, uncle." Sophia smiled.

"There is something that may make you unhappy if I say it, but out of convention, I still have to ask." Levin took a deep breath: "This is not a forced request or order, but a request. You can refuse. , or you can ignore it, no one will say anything to you, but out of ancestral teachings, I still have to ask."

Sophia frowned, looking at Levin's serious look, she felt it was not a good thing. But the other party was so sincere, she couldn't help but listen: "Uncle, tell me."

"I hope you can leave a descendant for our master's family."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Sophia asked coldly: "Blood purification?"

"Yes!" Levin nodded, looking embarrassed.

Many aristocratic families with special bloodlines like their outstanding descendants to intermarry with each other to ensure the purity of their bloodlines. Although there is a risk of deformed children in this way, the probability of geniuses is also the same. "

"With you, uncle?" Sophia's tone was somewhat mocking.

Levin shook his head: "Of course not me. It's John, the most handsome and genius in our clan. He is only 14 years old now and is already an elite summoner. He is also old enough to give birth to offspring."

Sophia shook her head: "Forgive me for refusing."

"The family will give you the greatest compensation."

Sophia smiled: "I am the wife of the city lord of Winterwind City, and I actually control a city. My husband loves me very much, I have a harmonious and beautiful family, and a good reputation. Why should I give up my family and present life? I have the status to conceive the offspring of a little devil? No matter how much compensation I get, what's the use? Am I stupid?"

Levin sighed: "Really not?"

"no!"

Levin was silent for a while and said: "Then let's put it another way. You find a way to obtain the essence of His Majesty Beta and conceive his child. We will do everything we can to help you, including using the succubus eyes. We will also use everything Means to help you cover up your tracks this year until you give birth to a descendant. For example, let Helen transform into you and live with your husband. Or use other more appropriate means. Your status will never be compromised and reputation, any harm.”

"Uncle, why do you have such thoughts?" Sophia asked after being silent for a long time.

Levin smiled and said: "Because I can see that you seem to be very familiar with His Majesty the Pope, very familiar."
