I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 911

In a remote mansion on the outskirts of the imperial capital, the Duke, who was often talked about during this period, sat in his study. He couldn't help but frowned when he saw the documents sorted out by the servants.

"The Demon King's Army... came here at this time, and my plan was disrupted!"

Looking at these documents, the Duke's expression seemed a little ferocious, and the anger in his heart could not be suppressed. If someone else was looking at him, they would find that he actually exuded a faint black aura.

The Duke was a man with a very vicissitudes of life. He and his wife were still very young when they gave birth to Serita, but in just twenty years, his face was full of wrinkles.

Especially the frowning look, which perfectly fits the stereotype of a mean person, which is enough to show that his temper is not very good, and his eyebrows are frowned most of the time.

The rough big hand rubbed his eyebrows, the Duke stood up from his seat, turned around and raised his head, looking at the large oil painting hanging in the study.

That is the territorial map of the empire, or more precisely, the most complete map of the entire empire when it was at its strongest fifty years ago.

At that time, the empire could really be called an emperor-like existence, and no country dared to raise its head in front of it.

With its powerful strength and vast territory, and sufficient resources to be self-sufficient even without communicating with outsiders, it is an existence that countless countries envy.

However, the noble consciousness has left various hidden dangers, and the inheritance from generation to generation has not made the entire country strong. Instead, it has become the root that poisons the entire country.

Capable people cannot show their talents because of their low bloodline, and the resources that should have been rich are all concentrated on those incompetent noble children.

The originally powerful strength of the empire gradually declined, and incompetent people controlled power and resources. There was no one who could take on the heavy responsibility on the noble side, and those hidden good seedlings were probably submerged and could not be discovered.

The Duke cares a lot about this matter, so his current philosophy has always been to favor useful people. In his eyes, bloodline is not so noble, and being able to show one's own value is the most important thing.

Even if a beggar is in front of him, he will not despise him at all. As long as he can be sure that the other party is useful, he will support him without hesitation.

Just like his capable daughter, she has shown enough talent at a young age. The future of the Duke's family obviously depends on her. With such an offspring, maybe even the position of the king can be competed for.

"I... What am I thinking? How come I am bolder than before when I am older? Such a rebellious idea has come up."

The Duke was stunned for a moment, and his right hand covered his forehead and shook it gently, wondering if he was too tired during this period, and even his way of thinking became extreme.

At this time, a pair of white arms stretched out from behind him, and the soft touch appeared from behind, and he seemed to fall into a warm embrace.

"Pandora... My dear daughter, why are you here?"

The Duke, who was frowning and very tired, softened his expression after feeling the embrace behind him, calling the name of the person behind him, and his tone was gentle and somewhat unlike him.

Gently breaking free from the embrace, the Duke turned around and saw a girl with gray hair.

The scarlet eyes, delicate face, and graceful figure in a noble dress were very pleasing to the eye, as if she had perfectly inherited the bloodline from her mother. The girl in front of her could be said to be full of charm.

In fact, during this period, there were so many marriage proposals from other noble families that the Duke could not handle them, but he had no intention of marrying his daughter off. Those rascals were not worthy of his excellent daughter.

"Father, you don't have to blame yourself. Everything you did was right. The reason you had such an idea was because something was wrong over there."

Pandora looked at her "father", her pink lips trembled slightly, her scarlet eyes were inexplicably dull, and even the voice sounded a little too ethereal.

The Duke, who was in the "father-daughter relationship", did not realize that the girl in front of him was full of something wrong.

Although she behaved more dignified and elegant than any other noblewoman, she could not conceal the inhuman aura on her body.

Before the Duke could even express his thoughts, Pandora was busy confirming her thoughts. Her tone seemed to be guiding the Duke to continue to step into the dark place.

When the step under his feet could not help but stretch outAt that time, it was too late to take it back.

"Really? My dear daughter, do you think so? It seems that I am not extreme, but His Highness is too incompetent. If he had not done too little as a king, the empire would not have fallen into decline.

If he was really right as a king, then this country would not have become what it is now."

The Duke showed an expression of sudden enlightenment when he heard this, and the dark emotions in his heart gradually targeted His Highness the King, whom he respected very much in the past.

Now the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was so. If His Highness was really capable as a king, he would not have to worry about these things today.

"Thank you my dear daughter, maybe I really lack your concern."

As if he was really grateful to Pandora, the Duke showed his expression on his face. His serious and vicissitudes face, showing such a tender expression really made people feel a little bit out of place.

When he came to his senses, the Duke had stretched out his hands to hold the other's soft face, feeling the touch in his palms, and his eyes gradually became a little fanatical.

A feeling that was definitely not what a father and daughter should have emerged, and the Duke's breathing gradually became rapid. How could he be so determined to give everything for the empire now? It was as if he could do anything for the person in front of him, just to satisfy the desire in his heart.

And Pandora did not resist at all, and the whole person showed a look of being picked by the man. With such a delicate flower and this expression, the devilish charm was immediately full.

"You look more and more like your mother, so charming and so hot."

The Duke said the mushy words, and his hands gradually became dishonest, but at this moment, the door of the study was knocked, and an anxious voice came from outside,

Bang bang bang!

"My Lord Duke, I have something to report! There is someone outside claiming to be your daughter, and intends to use the Duke's daughter to swindle!"
