Warm Dragon

The sacred unicorn Polly attracted the attention of the members of the fluorescent mushroom family. This is a perfect work without a single flaw.

The unicorn before was beautiful, but it was too big, and it always looked abrupt when compared with others.

The current sacred unicorn has a more crystal texture, and its body shape perfectly matches the knight, without any abruptness. Standing with Russell, it is like a natural knight and a warhorse, harmonious and unified.

"Okay, don't continue to be rude to Lord Polly." Baron Roman spoke, ending everyone's appreciation.

Polly was not used to the feeling of being watched by others, and quickly turned into a lightning, branded on Russell's forehead.

"The mark has changed too!" Sister Lola said in surprise.

She is already fifteen years old this year, and has grown into a tall and graceful lady. Unfortunately, her appearance is like her sister Rowling, and she is not outstanding-the way of survival of the fluorescent mushroom family has changed from low-key to development, but the trend has not been reversed in time.

"I brought you a lot of gifts for this trip to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents, but they are all in cousin Mel's motorcade and have not arrived yet." Russell said.

Then a group of people returned to the castle.

Just after sitting down, sister-in-law Gwen came to Russell with a baby in her arms, along with brother Roland.

"Russell, take a look at your nephew!" Roland laughed.

"When was he born?" Russell stretched out his hand to tease the sleeping baby with his eyes closed. His face was wrinkled, and it was obvious that he had not completely relaxed. "Brother, sister-in-law, have you named him yet... I forgot to prepare a gift for him!"

"No gift is needed, and your promotion to the Magic Dragon Knight is the biggest gift for Roger... His name is Roger, born on May 3!" Roland said excitedly, being a father for the first time, full of energy.

Then he added: "It was the name given by my father."

Gwen shook Roger awake, and when Roger was about to cry, he immediately directed Roger's sight to Russell: "Roger, come and see your uncle, your uncle Russell Fluorescent Mushroom, but he is the first Phantom Dragon Knight in Longmian Continent!"

Roger glanced at Russell, without giving him any face, and burst into tears.

Gwen immediately handed Roger to the maid behind him, and said with a smile: "This kid, besides eating, drinking and sleeping, he can only cry."

Russell laughed and said: "Being able to cry means being healthy and energetic, very good!"

Mrs. Meryl quickly told the maid to feed Roger carefully, and Baron Roman's eyes also moved with Roger.

At this moment.

Russell could feel that the hearts of the whole family were turning with Roger-at least his grandmother, parents, and eldest brother and his wife. Mrs. Meryl, who always valued Russell the most, also paid full attention to Roger.

"Is this inheritance?" Russell thought to himself.

He smiled, but he was not psychologically unbalanced because of this. He felt that he was no longer the focus of the crowd, but he did feel a little bit like an outsider.

Just at this moment, he turned his head and saw Uncle Rosen.

Uncle Rosen also smiled at him, and there was a certain meaning in his smile that Russell caught - this was a knowing smile from the second son of the family. Even if Russell was a phantom dragon knight, it was difficult to change his identity as the second son of the family.

Of course.

Although he and Uncle Rosen were both second sons, there were still differences.

Uncle Rosen in the past was just Baron Roman's spare tire, and today's Russell was destined to create a new family and leave the fluorescent mushroom family.

If Russell wanted to inherit everything from the fluorescent mushroom family, then his eldest brother Roland would become a spare tire at any time.

One passive, one active.

The fate is completely different, and the mentality is also completely different.

"Where is Royal, uncle?" Russell walked over and asked.

"I asked him to go to Yunmeng Ranch and work with Knight Raphael first." Uncle Rosen responded.

"Yeah."

"Are you going to accept Royal as a follower?" Aunt Luo Bi asked on the side.

"There may be some changes, so prepare to let Royal follow me first." Russell said casually.

He will soon ascend the throne as the Grand Duke.

At that time, ordinary knights will lose the opportunity to become followers, because in theory, as long as the knights are not born in the warm enclave, they are all natural followers of the Grand Duke, and there is no need to hold another loyalty ceremony.

But.

The ministers of the residence and ordinary knights will definitely be treated differently. Russell now accepts Royal, and Royal is his minister of the residence.

In the future, he will definitely be given priority over ordinary knights in terms of merit and reward.

Although he can promote any knight to a nobleman at will, he must be principled after becoming a Grand Duke. And the minister of the residence is an unwritten rule, which is also the reason why the eldest brother Roland wanted to go to the Dragon Blood Knights to get close to Grand Duke Kunstan.

Uncle Rosen didn't know what would happen next, but he was happy: "I'll send someone to inform Royal tomorrow morning!"

The dinner started soon.

After a round of toasts, Russell said: "Everyone stop for a moment, I have an important announcement."

Everyone stopped eating.

Baron Roman nodded: "Go ahead."

"I have reached a preliminary cooperation with the Shadow Flame Dragon and have notified the Senate. Next, I will inherit the Grand Duke of the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy." Russell didn't waste any words and directly explained the situation.

Silence.

Since old lady Ingrid started, everyone was stunned, then looked at each other and remained silent.

Everyone thought that Russell might ride a dragon, and he might even ride a dragon and become a grand duke.

But when this moment came, I didn’t know how to express my feelings. Grand duke, the king of a country, just like that!

Finally, Baron Roman spoke first: "Russell, this topic is very... serious, please tell me, you are not joking."

"Father, how could I joke about such a thing." Russell said calmly, "In a few days, the Red Castle will send people to welcome me to the Red Castle to ascend the throne, so I will inform you first to avoid mistakes at that time."

"Oh my God!" Roland exclaimed, "The dragon is watching, the light is blessing, I thought this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon!"

"This is really... This is really..." Old Lady Ingrid was so excited that she was incoherent, "Old Rod, you... Did you see that, your grandson Russell has become the Grand Duke of this country, the Grand Duke!"

Mrs. Meryl grabbed Baron Roman's arm and kept asking: "Roman, Russell is going to be the Grand Duke!"

"Yes." After being shocked, Baron Roman quickly calmed down and gently patted his wife's hand.

Then he turned to look at Russell with a smile and said, "How will the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family respond, and what did the Elders Council discuss?"

"The Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family has already withered, and probably it will end here..." Russell's smile faded, "Father, I will take good care of Princess Anxia and Princess Kunlaya. Before the little princess gets married, I will not set foot in the inner castle."

After a pause, Russell continued, "I will live in another courtyard, or even live in Cigar Castle, and report to the Red Castle Hall every day...As for the Elders Council, it was originally the result of the Elders Council and the Shadow Flame Dragon. After I ascend the throne, the Elders Council will be disbanded."

"Russell, will you reorganize the cabinet?" Roland asked hopefully.

Russell nodded: "Of course, the Shadow Flame Dragon also hopes that I can promote the beginning of industrialization on the Black Fire Land to the whole country. So, big brother, you have to be prepared, I need you to come to the Red Castle to help me."

Roland couldn't suppress his excitement and nodded heavily: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you!"

"No wonder you asked Royal to hurry up to follow you, that's it." Uncle Rosen suddenly realized, picked up the wine glass, and said enthusiastically, "Russell, no, Your Highness the Grand Duke who is about to ascend the throne, Rosen toasts you a glass!"

"Uncle, you have to be prepared too, I will need your help after I ascend the throne." Russell raised his glass and clinked it with Rosen from a distance.

"Brother is the Grand Duke!" Lola cheered.

Cousin Diana's eyes sparkled: "Brother Russell, can I follow you, you can make me a female lord!"

"Haha, no problem." Russell smiled and nodded.

Aunt Robbie immediately whispered, "Diana, don't talk nonsense, there is no such thing as a lady."

Diana raised her head: "Brother Russell promised me, Brother Russell is the Grand Duke, whatever the Grand Duke says is true!"

"Okay, Robbie, the children are just playing." Old Lady Ingrid smiled and raised her glass, "Come on, for the ghost... the fluorescent mushroom family, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The banquet has entered an excited atmosphere, everyone is cheering, Russell ascended the throne as the Grand Duke, and the fluorescent mushroom family is the dragon blood branch!

Russell also raised his glass, clinked it with the Red Castle in the north, and then sighed softly: "The Grand Duke is not my choice, I hope the wind and snow will stop!"
