Chapter Fourteen The Shiloh Family

Arthur, who is already twenty, has reached the age of enlightenment.

But martial arts, magic cultivation, mysterious organizational pursuit, and the responsibility of revenge for Keynes and the Blue Ape Mercenary Group on his shoulders made him not have time to stop and enjoy the love he deserved at this age like his peers.

The girls Arthur has come into contact with in recent years are Grie and Alia. Both girls have their own advantages. Arthur regards them as his friends and partners, but never has the courage to try to turn his partners into lovers. The door of love in Arthur's heart is still closed.

Now Grie took the initiative to push the door open a gap, but Arthur was still not ready to open the door completely to Grie.

When the music of the second dance stopped, Arthur did not think about how to respond to Grie's words just now.

Gary moved her blushing face away from Arthur's shoulders and took his hand to Grand Duke Rose.

Arthur's brain was still in a daze. Apart from keeping a smile, he didn't remember anything he said to the Lord.

In the end, maybe even Geli was annoyed by the words of Grand Duke, so she took the initiative to pull Arthur away to get rid of the siege.

After taking the red wine handed over by the servant, Arthur took a big sip before he woke up completely. Grie lowered her head and stood beside Arthur without saying anything, and the atmosphere between the two still seemed a little awkward.

"There are too many people here, so I'll take you to have a casual walk in the Grand Duke's Mansion." Or Ge Li took the initiative to break the silence.

"good."

Grey led Arthur through the banquet hall, but after only a few steps, he was blocked by two men and one woman opposite him, two young men of the same age as Arthur.

"I'm so anxious to leave, I won't find a place to have an affair, right?" said a tall young and young man in a silver dress.

"Cody, you dare to say something more nonsense. Believe it or not, I will smash that smelly mouth now." Grie fought back without hesitation.

The man shrugged but did not dare to continue provoking Goli, and instead said, "I didn't make you interested in this thorny rose today. I want to talk to Viscount Arthur alone, don't bother you, right?"

Grie snorted disdainfully, "Is Viscount Arthur interested in paying attention to you? It's his own business?"

Arthur was quite surprised. He seemed to have never seen these people opposite him before, so he looked at Goli with a consultation.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you to you. These are all from Grand Duke Hillow. It is best to be careful when talking to people from the Hillow family, otherwise they won't know if they sell you."

Goli's words were full of sarcasm. Cody held up a gun and rod and did not explode. He really didn't dare to mess with Goli in this occasion, otherwise he would have suffered the loss.

Cody politely reached out to Arthur, "Introduce yourself, I am Cody Hillow, my grandfather is my grandfather, Cairns is my uncle, and they are Aaron and Tiana."

Arthur shook hands with Cody gently. He later learned that Cairns was from the Hillo family, but he didn't understand why these people suddenly came to him.

"Golly, let them chat alone, I'll ask you to dance?" Aaron bent down and made an invitation to Golly. Aaron was slightly shorter than Cordy, had a feminine face, and had a ponytail.

"I'm not interested in dancing with you." Grie mercilessly poked Aaron back, "What's the best thing to say to Arthur is to be quicker, don't waste our time in having an affair."

Cody frowned, and then said to Arthur directly: "I heard that your surname was given to you by Cairns, so you can barely be considered a member of our Hillow family. The elders of the family are discussing the matter of re-adopting you into the family. I hope you will listen to the family's opinions before making important decisions in the future."

An unknown anger suddenly surged from Arthur's heart. Arthur didn't know what Cairns had with the family? But since he would rather create a mercenary group to earn commissions than seek help from the family, he could probably guess that Cairns' relationship with the family would not be very good.

Now the Hillo family has inexplicably taken the initiative to come to him. No matter what the other party’s purpose is, they don’t talk about feelings or interests, and they want to limit their decisions when they come up. They are used to being arrogant and really think that as long as they hook their fingers, others will pounce on them regardless of everything.

Arthur replied coldly: "Sorry, you seem to have made a mistake. I have nothing to do with the Hillo family."

Arthur's answer was also stunned by Cody and Aaron beside him. Unexpectedly, Arthur refused so simply. He knew what to say if he had prepared later.

"Is Viscount Arthur ungrateful? Your relationship with the Hillo family cannot be denied as long as you want to deny it. Uncle Cairns gave you the surname of the Hillo family."

Unexpectedly, the one who spoke was Tiana, who looked very mean. Although he was mean, he hit the nail on the head. According to mainland tradition, he would never allow himself to add a surname without being given by the royal family or nobles. Keynes wrote his surname to Arthur on the recommendation letter, which was indeed not recognized by the family. If the Hillo family had made it publicly, Arthur could not use the Hillo family. Perhaps it was because of a little accuracy that they believed that Arthur would never deny his relationship with the Hillo family.

"Since that's the case, I'll give you the surname Hillow. I'll report it to His Majesty the King later." Arthur said expressionlessly.

Arthur gave up his surname without hesitation. This time, not to mention Cody and Tiana, even Gori next to him was completely shocked. For the nobles, being deprived of their surname is equivalent to being deprived of their status as a noble, which is absolutely impossible to accept! But Arthur did not even change his expression at all.

"Do you have anything else? If it's okay, please get out of the way."

"Wait a minute." Tiana reached out to stop Arthur, "You are cruel. Uncle Cairns' Star Falcon Sword is also with you. After he dies, the sword also belongs to the property of the Hillo family. Please keep the Star Falcon Sword!"

The murderous aura instantly poured out from Arthur's body, and the Star Falcon Sword appeared in Arthur's hands the next second. This time, Tiana completely angered Arthur.

Tiana took two steps back in fear, while Cody and Aaron blocked her, staring at Arthur with alert eyes.

The giant sword of Star Falcon appeared, and the people dancing around were in an uproar, and quickly dodged a large empty scene, which suddenly became the focus of the entire dance.

"It seems that something happened to Geli. Don't you go and see it?" The marquis who was familiar with Ross, holding a wine glass and exhorting.

The grand duke laughed dismissively and said, "Our family is so beautiful. We have experienced many jealous things when we were young. Let them solve the children's affairs by themselves!"

The uncle Ross, who was unknown inside, thought it was because of his daughter, but he didn't expect that the person who was really jealous was Tiana. The reason why Tiana pressed Arthur step by step was because the Hillo family also wanted to recruit Arthur. The way they recruited Arthur was naturally not just based on their surnames, but also hoped to use marriage methods. The candidate for marriage was Tiana.

What the Hillow family unexpectedly was that before they could come forward to recruit, Arthur was almost taken first by the Ross family, so Cody and Tiana jumped out to stop him by themselves. But what Tiana Arthur could not have imagined was that his stupid behavior backfired completely angered Arthur.

Arthur stared at Tiana and said word by word: "Captain Keynes released the sword when he died. Anyone in the Hillo family wanted to take this sword from me, so he had to have the ability to kill me!"

Cody and Aaron looked at each other, and no one went up to challenge Arthur. Don’t say that they were not sure to defeat Arthur, even if there were, they could not take action here today.

"Do you want Viscount Kayong's face? Do you want to use your own force to take over?" Tiana continued to anger Arthur without giving up.

Just a second before Arthur's anger erupted, a small soybean-sized flame flew out of the crowd and fell silently on the tail of Tiana's long skirt.
