Using the fastest speed in his life, the neatly dressed Rory followed the attendants to the castle of the Charles family.
Huihong's castle is more than one or two levels higher than the Fast family's manor, but Rory is no longer the country boy he used to be.
But even after chewing the forbidden fruit, he still couldn't help but feel a little weak in his legs.
This was due to the inferiority complex in the young man's heart.
Even if he found out on the way that Earl Charles didn't want his life, he was still living under someone else's roof after all.
Who knew one day the Charles family would no longer support him.
Just thinking about what Rory should do when he has no ability to survive frightens the young man.
He made up his mind that no matter what the count asked him to do, he would seize the opportunity to flatter him.
At this point, Rory, who often serves Celine like this, is very good at it.
And in his opinion, Earl Charles is easier to serve than Celine.
That vicious woman was not as generous as Earl Charles, but Celine was the daughter of Earl Charles.
Even when he first came to Charles to report that Celine had betrayed the Charles family, Rory did not dare to have any disrespect in his tone.
Although he claims to be Lord Fast outside, once he enters a formal situation, Rory is just a little kid who doesn't even have a noble title.
He followed the attendants into Earl Fast's study with trepidation.
A small person like him could only accept such treatment.
But today, the little guy has a big opportunity in front of him.
As long as he successfully grasps it, he will really be Lord Fast in the future.
Without any courtesy, Earl Charles asked him directly.
"Rory Fast, do you want to be Baron Fast?"
On the surface, this is nonsense.
Because Rory always dreamed of becoming Baron Fast, Earl Charles must also know.
But big shots usually don't talk nonsense.
If they say something like this, it can only be because Earl Charles has some ideas.
And this idea may well propel him to the throne of Baron Fast.
But no matter what the cost, it was acceptable to Rory, who had nothing.
Earl Charles also knew that Rory would not be stupid enough to refuse such a benefit.
The key was not Rory.
How to open up the relationship with Tallinn City was the most important thing.
To this end, he has asked Colin, who is far away in Tallinn City, to take action.
Without Rory's consent, the Charles family used Rory as an excuse to spread rumors among the nobles of Tallinn City.
The content naturally used Lorne's identity as an illegitimate son as a breakthrough.
Not only did he say that he was of low origin, but he even questioned the blood relationship between Lorne and the old Baron Fast.
The witness was of course Rory, who was also from the Fast family.
He was manipulating the inheritance rights.
They jumped away from Celine and spread the word that Rory was the legal and only heir.
Luo Li's departure from the Charles Territory was also misinterpreted as asking for help and shelter.
The Charles family, which advocates legality and upholds laws in the north, will certainly not refuse Rory's request for help.
In order to show the legitimacy of their sending troops to intervene in the disputes between the small lords, Celine was also singled out and sentenced to death.
Of course, Celine in the story is a poor woman who was coerced by Lorne and did not dare to return to her natal family.
As a father, Earl Charles certainly could not tolerate his daughter being insulted by Lorne.
Based on the original scandal between Lorne and Celine, this theory is still very popular in Tallinn City.
After all, so many pairs of eyes have seen the dirty scene between the stepson and stepmother, and the statement of the Charles family does have some basis in fact.
The Grand Duke of the North could prevent big nobles from annexing small nobles, but he could not interfere with other people's family affairs.
The only place where the Grand Duke of the North can intervene is the inheritance dispute between Lorne and Rory.
Based on Lorne's current situation, he is already qualified to enter the Grand Duke's sight immediately.

But because of the red-eyed orcs, he, who had left Tallinn City and went to the front line in person, could not spare his hands to deal with it for the time being.
At this time, the leadership of Tallinn City fell into the hands of the Grand Duchess.
The Charles family has seized a good opportunity, and the grudges between the Lorne and Baker families are not shallow.
Whether it was the matter of Walter or the despicable dagger, it was impossible for the Baker family to swallow their anger after suffering a hidden loss.
Now that someone has jumped out to help them solve the problem of Lorne, they will naturally not refuse the kindness of others.
What's more, the Charles family has spent a lot of money to manage everyone, except for the Lady of the North who is in power.
Lorne is the nominal monarch, and little Anna has received many gifts as a result.
And I heard that the Baker family was going to teach Lorne a lesson and ask her to change her vassal.
Little Anna immediately clapped her hands and applauded.
Originally, she was counting on Lorne to marry her when he got rich.
Unfortunately, Anna saw Lorne's true nature clearly when the beast threw away the letter full of the girl's confession.
I waited many days and nights, but got no reply.
The beast who failed the girl should be punished, so whether it was Walter's actions or Lawrence's duel, Anna did not show any expression.
Even now, after receiving gifts from the Charles family, she still wishes the Charles family immediate success.
Even the Lord of Lorne nodded, and what happened next went much smoother than planned.
The Grand Duchess could not circumvent the Grand Duke of the North and deprive Lorne of his title, but she could side with Rory and question Lorne's bloodline.
The status of an illegitimate son originally limited Lorne's development among the upper-class nobility.
After the Charles family played a paternity test, there were many voices asking Lorne to hand over his title.
Taking advantage of this trend, the Charles family immediately used Celine as an excuse to declare in a high-profile manner that they were at war with the Fast family represented by Lorne.
And the Charles family, which had been preparing for it for a long time, had already assembled its troops within a few days of the public announcement.
When Celine received the information transferred from the Harrison family, the Charles family's army had already left their territory.
Not only did the lords on the road allow such a huge army to pass through their territory, there were even many guys who wanted to curry favor with the Charles family and provided supplies and accommodation to the Charles family's army.
Lacking her own contact network, Celine didn't know the specific situation but could only consider the worst case scenario.
Especially when she heard the Harrison family's messenger report on the recent events in Tallinn, she knew that this battle was inevitable.
It’s hard to imagine how shameless his father is to use his daughter’s scandal to satisfy his own wishes, but things are clear before his eyes.
Back then, Earl Charles was able to marry the young and beautiful Celine to the aging old Frenchman.
Baron Ste can know that Earl Charles is a guy who doesn't care much about face.
Doing such a thing now is in line with his usual style
