Sorondo was indeed Knight Sicily's child and a member of the noble family.
It was just that he was not the eldest son and did not have outstanding Knight talent.
According to the rules of this era, after Knight Sicily died, his eldest son, Charlie, should inherit the title and everything.
As for Sorondo, apart from some severance pay, he would not receive anything else.
What was more, from what Chen Heng knew, Sorondo and his big brother Charlie did not seem to have a good relationship.
If Charlie inherited the title, it was very likely that he would kick Sorondo away. In fact, according to the rules of this era, it was even possible that he would kill Sorondo.
Right now, Sorondo was most likely worried about this.
"Sorondo, my dearest brother, what do you think I should do?"
Sorondo deeply sighed as he looked at Chen Heng.
What should he do?
Do you even need to ask me?
Chen Heng fell silent for a moment before looking up and saying, "Sir, what do you think of Sir Charlie's character?
He is a shameless and lowly person! "
Speaking of Charlie, Sorondo's expression became dark, "I've always wondered if he was my father's child!
"Then what do you think Sir Charlie will do to you if he inherits the title?"
Chen Heng took a step forwards and continued to ask, "Will he give you enough money to live on and chase you out of the territory to live somewhere else …
"Or will he keep you and have you take on some lowly positions in the territory?
"Or …"
Speaking to there, he paused before continuing, "Or send people to …"
Sorondo's expression immediately became dark.
He knew that with his big brother's personality, what Chen Heng said would most likely happen.
"Esteemed sir, are you really willing to accept such an outcome?"
At that moment, Chen Heng suddenly knelt on one knee and said earnestly, "Are you willing to accept such a pitiful outcome?"
"But …"
Sorondo's expression became hesitant, "In the end, he is my big brother and the successor of the Sicily Territory. What can I do …"
"Before truly inheriting the territory, anything can happen," Chen Heng said decisively.
He looked at Sorondo and said, "As long as Sir Charlie dies of illness, everything can change …
"You should know, Knight Cecily, you and Sir Charlie are the only two children …"
"He died of illness …"
Sorondo paused and no longer hesitated as he stared at Chen Heng, "It's just that … Charlie has Sir Edward by his side; how can I be a match for him?"
Hearing this, sensing Sorondo's attitude, Chen Heng inwardly let out a sigh of relief.
He was just afraid that Sorondo was too stupid to do such a thing.
But now, it seemed that the other party already had his own plans.
"Please leave it to me."
Chen Heng did not hesitate and said, "Even though Sir Edward is a Knight, he is old and is not as powerful as he was in the past.
"In a one on one situation, I have the confidence to defeat him."
"Really?"
Sorondo immediately stood up and looked at Chen Heng, his voice filled with excitement.
"Of course."
Chen Heng nodded without hesitation before saying, "It's just that in order to ensure victory, I need some help."
"What do you want?"
Sorondo did not hesitate at all and said, "Sharp weapons, sturdy armor, or lethal poisons and bows?"
"No …"
Chen Heng shook his head and lowered his head, his expression becoming incredibly respectful, "I hope to obtain a portion of the Knights Breathing Technique …"
"You want to cultivate the Knights Breathing Technique?"
Sorondo paused for a moment before hesitating, "This thing requires Knight talent to cultivate, and it might not be useful to you."
"It's alright."
Chen Heng lowered his head, his attitude not changing, "As long as it can be a bit stronger, it's fine.
"In the upcoming battle, any increase in strength will be incomparably important."
His expression was sincere as he spoke.
The Knights Breathing Technique was his true goal.
In this world, the Knights Breathing Technique was exclusive to nobles, and only noble families with a long history could have this legacy.
Chen Heng had become Sorondo's follower and worked hard for his father just for this.
Now, the opportunity had finally come.
"This …"
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Sorondo's expression became quite unsettled, and he became incredibly hesitant.
He stood there in silence for a long time. In the end, he thought about his current situation and gritted his teeth. "Fine."
I can give you the Knights Breathing Technique. "
He deeply breathed in and looked at Chen Heng as he said, "In fact, I can promise that as long as I become the ruler of Cecily, I will give my family's Knights Breathing Technique to you."
Hearing this, a look of gratitude appeared on Chen Heng's face, "This … sir …"
"There's no need to be so polite."
Sorondo walked up and helped him up, his expression incredibly sincere as he said, "After all, you are my closest brother, just like Sir Edward and my father. I hope that we can maintain this friendship until the end of our lives."
Crack …
After a moment, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he walked out of Sorondo's room.
He looked around, and after confirming that there was no one else around, he walked to his own room.
After coming to his room, he took out a yellow paper.
The yellow bast paper looked a little old and worn. There were many words written on it in the language of this world.
Chen Heng looked down and a look of delight appeared on his face.
"It should be real … it's just that it's not complete …"
Chen Heng thought to himself.
Over the past few years, he had not wasted his time. While being busy, he had also used his martial arts knowledge to analyze this world's Knights Breathing Technique.
From his experience, this Knights Breathing Technique was most likely the real thing, and it would not be a problem for him to cultivate it.
After thinking about it, no matter how stupid Sorondo was, he would not use a fake Knights Breathing Technique to fool him.
As for the basic parts, it was easy to understand.
Sorondo did not have much talent as a Knight, and the education he had received was only the basic parts.
As such, the Knights Breathing Technique that he knew was only the basic parts.
After looking over the Knights Breathing Technique and memorizing it, Chen Heng started to move.
Inside the house, he moved his hands and feet, twisting them in a unique posture, and began to stimulate his body.
After warming up, he took out some things from the side.
It was a piece of black ointment. It looked very black, like a piece of stone. It looked very special.
A unique smell emanated from it, causing one to frown involuntarily.
This was a supplementary medicine that Knights needed, and Chen Heng had obtained it from Sorondo.
In this world, Knights' cultivation was not an easy thing to do. At the beginning, unless other Knights provided life energy to support them, they would need special medicines to support them. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to get started.
After applying the ointment all over his body, an intense burning feeling appeared all over his body.
At the start, it was not too strong, but towards the end, it was so intense that he could not help but cry out in pain.
"This feeling is a bit like qi blood burning?"
Sensing this feeling, Chen Heng frowned as he thought to himself.
In the real world, Body Forging Techniques had concepts related to qi blood.
Under special circumstances, martial artists could also burn their own Qi and blood to enhance their combat strength and even their cultivation.
Now, Chen Heng felt that this was the case.
He endured the pain and frowned as he started to cultivate.
According to the Knights Breathing Technique, he started to do all sorts of movements and diligently cultivate.
As time passed, the burning feeling in Chen Heng's body became weaker and weaker. In the end, it was replaced by a cool feeling, giving him a different experience.
As time passed, the feeling in Chen Heng's body became weaker and weaker until it was almost non-existent.
A new wave of exhaustion appeared in his body.
"As expected, I don't have the talent to become a Knight …"
Sensing the feeling in his body, Chen Heng sighed.
Based on what Sorondo had said, if he had the talent to become a Knight, he would feel more and more excited during training, and he would not want to stop.
However, Chen Heng did not feel this way. Instead, he only felt tired.
It seemed that his body did not have the talent to become a Knight.
However, this was not surprising.
He had obtained this identity without spending any Points. It was already good that he did not lose an arm or a leg, yet he wanted to have the talent to become a Knight?
Dream on!
Before, Chen Heng had only wanted to give it a try and did not have much hope.
Now that his hopes had been dashed, he did not feel disappointed and only sighed.
"Fortunately, it's still somewhat useful."
This thought flashed through his mind as he sensed his current state.
Right now, he could feel that the effects of the Knights Breathing Technique on his body were not inferior to the Body Forging Technique at all.
"Using the Knights Breathing Technique in conjunction with the Body Forging Technique seems to be more effective …"
Sensing the changes in his body, Chen Heng thought to himself.
Perhaps with this Breathing Technique, he would be able to reach Body Forging Completion much faster.
"I wonder how much of a difference there is between Body Forging Completion and this world's Knights?"
At that moment, he thought to himself.
Time gradually passed.
After Chen Heng and Sorondo's secret conversation, everything continued to go on.
On the surface, everything seemed to be normal, as if they did not know anything.
Sicily also maintained a semblance of peace.
Just like that, two years passed in the blink of an eye.
Boom!
Thunder rumbled outside.
A heavy rain was pouring down with pitter-patter.
"Has Sir Sicily not recovered yet?"
Chen Heng walked into the hall and looked at the tall Knight as he softly spoke.
"Not yet."
