"Sir Prio, thank you for accepting my presumptuous visit despite your busy schedule."

　　 In the manor’s study room, Zirned was sitting in danger.

　　 "Introduce myself again. I am Nessi Zilned, Lieutenant Commander of the French Navy, and the captain of the sixth-tier ship Lucky Horseshoe. My ship is under the New World Fleet and is currently serving in its Atlantic Defense Fleet."

"My birth..." Zirned changed his tone. "I was born in Colmar, Alsace. My ancestor was made a Viscount in the period of His Majesty the Fourteenth. It was prominent in the Upper Rhine generation."

　　 "However, the ancestors of the previous generations fought all the year round, and there were many sacrifices. The family also often faced the succession of the child to the throne. The fief must be under the escrow situation. Years passed, it was inevitable that a family notorious for not good at business was inevitably left behind."

"It was about before and after my birth. Our suzerain, the Count Daddys family, died out, and the fief was reclaimed by the secondary council. As a vassal of the Count family, my family received a comprehensive evaluation and was not only forced to change the court to swear allegiance to your majesty. Even the fiefdom has been reduced from a small town with more than 400 households to a small village with only twelve households."

　　 "My family has fallen in the middle of the family so far. By the time my father inherited the title, it was already very tight and no different from ordinary farmers."

　　 Zirned laughed at himself: "I didn't receive any form of education in my childhood. I was most adept at growing wheat and milking cows. When I was four years old, I was able to catch squirrels with my homemade traps, and I was successful more than once."

　　 "This kind of life lasted until the age of six. My father was expelled from the army because of the mistake of returning home without authorization when the farm was busy, and we lost our most important source of livelihood."

"In order for the family of seven to survive, my father gave back the noble titles, abandoned the loyal leaders, sold the family's ancestral home and all the property that could not be taken away, and moved the family to Martinique as a pioneer. , Bought a small plantation with only a hundred acres of land."

　　 "Life has settled down again. Although we are poor and hard because we can't afford slaves, at least, we no longer need to worry about not having enough food, and I have grown up healthily from the age of seven to twelve."

"When I was twelve years old, pirates struck." Zirned said calmly, like a bystander telling a world tragedy that had nothing to do with him, "except for my little sister and I who went to the woods to pick wild berries. Everyone died. It was the navy patrolling nearby that expelled the pirates and accidentally saved my life."

　　 "This is the second turning point in my life. At the age of twelve, I sold my sister, joined the navy with the money, and became a sailor at the bottom, not even a sailor."

"At the time I was working as an information assistant on a sloop communications ship called the Centaur. It was the smallest, weakest, and most incompetent of the 36 crew members on the ship. I knew nothing, even staying idle. On the deck, the deck will be soiled because of seasickness."

　　 "I have been like this for three years, relying on bribes and enduring the captain's whip, I finally became a formal sailor."

　　 "At the age of fifteen, we met pirates again."

"The firepower was inferior, the personnel was inferior, the ship was inferior, and the Centaur was sunk. Under the leadership of the chief officer, I boarded the enemy ship and fought the enemy to death. In the end I became the only survivor of that battle. One person captured the enemy ship, and because of lack of manpower, he floated at sea for 22 days and was lucky enough to be rescued."

　　 "Later I learned that it was actually the flagship of the Pirate King. I probably met us when I was at its weakest and made me pick up this big bargain."

　　 "I was fortunate to become a tool for the New World Fleet to boast of military exploits. My record was multiplied and I was awarded the Saint Mitchell Medal. I was also exceptionally promoted to a second lieutenant, completing the leap from soldier to officer."

"In the following ten years, I began to fight hard. I experienced 127 naval battles, with 66 victories and no defeats. My military rank has also been promoted from a small second lieutenant to a major. High power."

"However, being invincible doesn't change anything. Four years ago, I competed with a colleague who was far less capable than mine for the position of lieutenant colonel, and I lost it. This defeat made me think I had seen everything through, so I took the initiative to apply for a transfer to calm down. The Atlantic Defense Fleet began to chase pleasure, no longer insisting on promotion..."

　　 "Until I met the adult."

　　 Zirned expressed gratitude and smiled freely: "My lord told me that rigid aristocrats only recognize my birthplace. If I have the ambition to become a general, the first thing I need to improve is my birthplace."

　　 "So...Sir Prio, I love Miss Emily, my daughter, my daughter, even if there is a difference in respect and inferiority, even if she doesn't love me, I hope to be her life companion."

　　 "I am willing to join the family! Abandon the surname, abandon the family, use your noble surname as the surname, based on the interests of the Prio family, loyal to life, never betray!"

"This is also of great benefit to you. You are the regional speaker of a remote town. There is no foundation in the military or politics, and no son to inherit the family business. You only have three daughters, but we all know that women cannot Keep your family business, this world... is still a man's world."

　　The long speech finally came to an end, Zirned could no longer straighten his waist as if exhausted.

　　 He softened tiredly, panting, and paused every word.

　　 "I have shown all my cards, Sir. I hope this makes you feel my sincerity, and then...please tell me your answer!"

　　 There was silence in the study.

　　 It used to be the space where Zirned wouldn't speak to Sir Prio. Now space is everywhere, and Jazz doesn't know how to start.

identity.

　　 The Atlantic Defense Fleet is the guardian and reliance of all ports on the pan-Atlantic coast of Martinique, and is the only regular maritime armed force.

As the powerful captain in charge of the Lucky Horseshoe, Zirned is by no means as humble as he himself said. Everyone with reason and judgment knows that his influence in the town is better than that of a no-name speaker. Adults are only high and not low.

　　 Being able to win over such a person is like a pie in the sky for Sir Prio, but Zirned was too sincere and humble, and Jazz lost his sense of reality.

　　 First of all, he must confirm his sincerity!

　　 Sir weighed his words with such an idea: "Mr. Major, although I have heard some weird rumors these days, to be honest, I have never tried to take them as real."

　　 "Do you think I spread those rumors?"

　　 "At least for the most part, I heard that your adjutant protested to the mayor because of some rumors that hurt your reputation."

Zirned shook his head altogether: "Whether you believe it or not, those rumors have nothing to do with me. I only know that some people are trying to help me, some are trying to harm me, and some are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. I can't see through it for a while."

　　 Sir Prio raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Assuming that those rumors really have nothing to do with you, what reason do you have to choose Aini, or to choose Prio's house."

　　 "Of course it is love."

　　 "You keep saying love, but with all due respect, from your lengthy speech, I did not hear your love for Aini."

　　 "It is love." Zirned looked solemnly, "I love your daughter, love wealth, love power, your daughter is the intersection of all desires, and the only choice worthy of all my sacrifices."

　　 The strangeness on Sir Sir's face is thicker.

"Although I don’t want to say that, Martinique is richer than me. There are many people who are richer than me. I am not even the most powerful person in Le Lorraine... As for Aini’s beauty, I think that It should not be in your consideration."

"Why ask knowingly, Sir." Zirned sighed disappointedly. "Miss Emily is the best choice~lightnovelpub.net~ Her value is not brought to her by the Prio family, but It comes from the wish of another noble person. It is the same for me and you. Miss Emily will become our bond with that noble person."

　　 "That nobleman?"

"Mr. Siegfried Nallo, I still don’t know his identity. He disdains that other people don’t want to tell me. But in my opinion, you should know his identity. There is also the Mr. Renault. , And many celebrities in the town, Mr. Narlo’s identity should not be a secret to them."

　　 "Narlo...Mr." The Jazz fixedly stared at Zirned. This, "Mr. Captain meant that your union with Aini was his expectation?"

　　 "Yes, Mr. personally told me that he hoped that I could give Miss Emily loyalty and happiness. That is Mr.'s kindness. Only by giving everything to satisfy Mr.'s wishes can I get the rewards I expect."

　　 "This... is beyond my expectation."

　　Sir Prio stood up, pacing non-stop, one circle, two circle.

　　Walking to the sixth lap, he stopped: "Captain...Zirne...Nesi, I remember that Mr. Narlo's ship has left the port, right?"

　　 "About an hour and a half ago." Zirned glanced at his pocket watch, "I watched the night as Mr.'s ship sailed into."

"In that case... I really want to satisfy your wishes. The Prio family also welcomes you such an outstanding son-in-law, but this is no longer a decision I can make. Aini is sad in the room, if we want to reach Narr Mr. Luo’s wish, you need to convince her yourself."
