“You want me to become little Char’s godfather?”

Aaron did not know whether to laugh or cry.

A godfather was the equivalent of a foster father in the East, and he even had the right to supervise the child. If something happened to little Char’s parents, he would theoretically be responsible for raising the child.

Furthermore, if the Earl and Colin were to die in the future, Aaron could use his guardianship to take over the position of Earl of the Green Forest!

From a legal point of view, He would be more reasonable than Sean.

“I don’t mind, but I’m afraid Colin won’t agree. Besides, it’s just a rumour. Maybe it was deliberately spread by a someone to sow discord …”

Aaron shrugged, “We don’t need this, so there’s no need to push for anything, understand?”

He massaged his temples as he spoke.

Just now his spirituality had surged and he seemed to have sensed a vague scene, but there was nothing there.

This made Aaron guess: ‘This is the power of divination. Has the dark spirituality strengthened my intuition?

Could it be … that the ‘Black Sun’ in the dream world has grasped the symbol of divination?

The path of the Black Sun is the dark and is related to corruption. Wait, does this mean that my intuition has sensed a conspiracy? A future conspiracy? ‘

His expression became solemn.

Albert, on the other hand, bowed even lower.

He felt a terrible heat rising in front of him, as if the person in front of him was not a lord, but a dark furnace!

The pitch-black flames rose, as if a black sun had risen and engulfed him.

“Ah!”

Albert seemed to wake from a nightmare, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

My lord’s majesty simply surpasses the earl… no surpasses men!

….

Sotos Castle.

“Godfather? Why him? ”Hearing Colin’s roar, Ginny could only roll her eyes.

Then, as expected, she saw Colin being chased out of Theodore’s study in a sorry state.

“Once Father has made up his mind, he can’t change it… He’s just like Grandmother, unwavering!”

Ginny lowered her voice and looked at her twin brother, Sean.

Sean’s expression was not too good either, “This way, if something happens to Colin, Aaron will definitely take over.”

In the Green Forest, only the eldest son’s inheritance was considered just.

Once the eldest son died, his brothers’ inheritance rights were basically equal, and no one had priority over the other.

In other words, if Colin died, the title could go to Aaron or Sean. Which is reasonable.

Of course, he had a son, so the rights of his son to inherit would be above those of his uncles.

But, by virtue of his godfather’s guardianship, Aaron would have priority over Sean, at least until Xiaya came of age.

If this were an heiress, the situation would be even more miserable. Perhaps even her marriage would be arranged directly by her godfather.

“Colin is the eldest son, and Aaron is the son who pleases him… Who am I? I am nothing!”

Sean laughed at himself.

“At least… you know who you are.”

Jenny added in passing, before sulking. “I want to eat caramel pudding. The ones they make in the castle kitchen aren’t as pure …”

….

Colin left the castle, mounted his horse and rode to a villa in the small town.

He had a mistress here.

Well, for the Green Forest people, this was nothing. Even Colin liked to go to the small town from time to time to look for prostitutes to amuse himself.

It seemed that to make up for his wife’s infidelity, he was very keen on this.

Outside the villa, Colin dismounted. At the thought of his mistress’s shy face, his heart couldn’t help but tremble.

“Elaine, I’m here!”He walked through the door, grabbed a beautiful girl and couldn’t wait to kiss her.

“Wait, there are guests!”

Elaine’s face flushed and she quickly refused.

“Guests? Who are they?”

Colin frowned and walked into the living room.

Then he saw someone who took him by surprise.

“Sir Colin, we meet again.”

The special envoy from the Kagash Kingdom, Philly, whom he had met at the wedding, stood up and bowed respectfully to greet him.

“It’s you?”

Colin stared at Philly, a little dazed.

In the past, Philly wore a silk robe, his hair neatly combed and his eyes full of pride. He was dressed like a nobleman in high society.

But now he wore a grey cloak, his hair was dishevelled like a chicken’s nest, and he had a flattering smile on his face.

This made Colin realise that he seemed to have underestimated this legendary king’s jester.

“You snuck into the Green Forest. What do you want?”

Colin asked in a low voice as he entered the living room.

“I’m here to help Sir Colin. I understand you’ve been having some … er … little problems?” Philly Geto said, “The Kagash Kingdom is willing to help you become the undisputed Earl of Green Forest. This is beneficial to both of us.”

Colin was no fool, he immediately smelt the scent of conspiracy. He sneered, “You want me to betray the Green Forest, betray my father? I’m the heir, I don’t need any help! ”

His hand was already on the hilt of his sword, ready to chop off the head of the person in front of him.

“No, no, no, from what I’ve heard, your position as heir is already in jeopardy… Besides, according to the barbaric traditions of the Green Forest, the former legendary King of the Green Forest also thought highly of his second son, so he killed his eldest son to pave the way for him.”

Philly smiled, “Do you want to be Aaron’s stepping stone?”

He looked at Colin, who had stopped, and smiled coldly: “Such a fool, your brother knows that he has nothing to do with me and must stay away from me… but, being a fool is good, being a fool is good for the kingdom!

Somehow, Philly thought of the youth who was unfazed, ‘If we let a king like Aaron ascend to the throne, he will definitely set his sights outside the Green Forest, and then the kingdom will be in danger.’

“You ….”

Colin’s expression changed a few times, but he became strangely quiet, and his hand let go of the hilt of his sword.

“That’s right Colin. We didn’t ask you to betray your father, we only want to target your brother.”

Philly continued to persuade him, but in his heart he thought, ” It doesn’t matter if the conspiracy succeeds or fails, I will let the Green Forest fall into internal strife, it is best if it splits again, this is the most beneficial for the kingdom. The remaining members of the Davis family are too stupid, half of them have been captured, it’s not worth investing in them anymore.’
