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

Chapter 975

Both Serita and Luke were too childish. They would easily clash if they had a little quarrel. This was exactly the most troublesome part.

Elena had to work hard to stop the two from wanting to duel, and reluctantly sat down to chat "calmly" for his sake.

"It's useless to say anything. Unless you promise me that you can stay and take over my position in the next few years, I won't agree to anything."

However, Luke, who had previously taken the initiative to give in, got angry at this moment. He crossed his arms and put on a bad face. He directly asked for the conditions. For Elena, these conditions were somewhat excessive.

"Don't be so arrogant. No one here will listen to your conditions!"

Serita was immediately unhappy when she heard this. She pointed at Luke's nose and said unhappily that there was nothing to talk about at all.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Elena had to come out again to calm them down, but soon he looked at Luke. He really found it difficult to accept the conditions offered by the other party.

"Duke... No... Mr. Luke, forgive me for being frank. It's not that I don't want to accept the proposal of marrying into the family, but your so-called Duke family background is not attractive to me.

I am not a noble person. I can remain calm in the face of interests. As long as the benefits are enough, I am willing to do many things.

But the problem is that Mr. Luke, what you give is really not enough. To put it bluntly, I have no interest in your position as the Duke of the Empire and your entire family business. I don't care about these at all."

As soon as these words came out, Luke's eyes widened, and the corners of his mouth twitched as if he wanted to curse.

The family business of the Duke of the Empire is not a trivial matter. Even though it has been hit hard by Pandora and the empire is now on the decline, this is definitely not a reason for foreign civilians like Elena to look down on it.

If Luke were to publicly and unconditionally select an heir, people in the empire and other countries would definitely fight to take the position if they knew about it.

After all, as long as he could become the next head of the family, he would not have to worry about resources or future, and he would live in wealth and honor all his life.

But Elaina said that she was not interested in this, and even said that she did not like it at all, which made Luke feel insulted, and at the same time felt that Elaina was a little too arrogant.

If Luke had not known that Elaina was an orphan, people who did not know would have thought that he was a great nobleman from some country.

"Don't be excited, I don't mean to offend you, but Mr. Luke, look into my eyes, think carefully, are I really just joking with you?"

After saying that, Elaina narrowed her eyes, and the vertical pupils of the half-dragon man emitted a faint light, even if Elaina tried to suppress it, she could not control the emanation of its majesty.

Looking at the other person's eyes, Luke realized how special Elaina's identity was.

Being able to breathe fire and grow dragon scales on the body, even if they are only some transparent dragon scales condensed by magic, is enough to prove that Elena is a half-dragon.

Just this point alone makes Elena no longer a starting point compared to ordinary humans, not to mention that he is the closest partner of the hero, and he has to embark on the road of defeating the devil together.

If you think about it carefully, such an existence does not seem to have any interest in the position of the Duke of the Fallen Empire. After all, the upper limit of Elena's future is definitely not just this.

If Elena is willing, it may not be impossible to become the king of a new country one day in the future. There is really no need to decide her future so early.

"Haha, old thing, you just understand. Elena is more capable than you think. I don't want your broken Duke position."

Seeing Luke's complicated expression, Serita said with a smug look, as if the special person was herself.

"So just leave me alone. It's definitely the right choice for me to leave with Elena. Besides, there's still the Demon King waiting for us to defeat him. I don't have time to stay here to play house with you in marriage."

Selita waved her hand and said with a swelled face, as if the decision she made was the most accurate choice in the world. This was really amazing.

Luke rarely refuted this time. He looked at Selita in silence, but his expression did not show any sign of wanting to accept it.

Although he knew Elena's specialness, his daughter might be with Elena.There will be more prospects, but even so, the title still needs someone to inherit it. Luke only has one child, Serita, and he will never let her go out and mess around.

"Although I can't marry into the Duke's family, I have a suggestion here. I wonder if you are willing to accept it, Mr. Luke."

Suddenly, Elena changed the subject, her narrowed eyes exuded a dangerous aura, and she had a slightly naughty smile on her face, as if she was thinking of something bad.

"Tell me about it."

Luke subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and always felt that Elena had bad intentions. Although it was very rude to look at his benefactor with such a mentality, his intuition made him feel that Elena was a little bit wrong.

However, because of curiosity, Luke still planned to listen to what Elena wanted to say, and what other solutions he could have in this situation.

"It's very simple. I can inherit this title, and it's not completely impossible to marry into the family. But if I want to marry, it's just nominal, or even undisclosed. I can become the future duke in name, but I won't stay to do anything. After all, I have my own things to deal with, and I won't have time to take care of other things for a long time in the future, so it's up to you, Mr. Luke, to take care of things.

But in return, I will also give some support to the Duke's Mansion, such as working hard to train Serita on your behalf, and I can also come to help if the Duke's Mansion encounters some difficulties."

Elena said with a smile. Although her tone sounded very plain, these words sounded like thunder in Luke's ears.

When Luke came to his senses, he almost bit his silver teeth to pieces, because the man in front of him actually wanted to get something for nothing.

He was unwilling to bear anything but just paid a nominal price, and even this nominal price was secretly promoted. He wanted to get the privilege of the title for free, and even hinted in his words that the other party wanted to take Serita away.
