Angele led the team to a white tombstone in front of the forest. He had a calm expression on his face.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he bumped into Eunie's mother, the woman named Melanie.
A beautiful woman with long hair walked into the room. She was wearing a long white dress and was holding a violin in her hand. It looked like the violin was made of red wood.
Angele stepped forward and rubbed the tombstone carefully. Maggie, 1542.1.13, was engraved on the surface.
Angele heard a crisp melody that sounded like a zither. The melody was not pleasant, but it was full of emotions. Angele could tell from the rhythm.
Celia hesitated for a moment. She looked at the two children beside her, who were looking at her expectantly, and nodded her head.
Celia was holding Anse's hand.
"Come in." Angele turned around and leaned on the windowsill.
"That's a silver carriage that only counts can ride …" someone said in a low voice.
Amidst the vast expanse of green fields, on a yellow carriage road, a silver carriage slowly stopped beside a white manor.
Angele left the bedroom and walked to a room at the end of the hallway.
The two children did not know Angele at all, but they were afraid of strangers. They stayed by Celia's side the whole time, and they looked scared when they saw Angele.
"Yeah, you promised me this morning. Don't you dare go back on your word!" The little boy, Anse, also joined in.
Lieben, the butler of the Prince, ordered the guards to return to the manor after Angele gave the order. They were already home, so there was no need to be so formal. However, Lieben followed Angele into the manor and did not leave.
"Master Angele, did you have a good time here?" Melanie realized something was wrong after she spoke. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" She apologized in a hurry. There was a hint of fear on her face.
Melanie's lips were trembling. She lowered her head and looked at Angele with fear in her eyes. She felt like she said something wrong.
* Knock Knock *
"Angele, it's me, Celia." The woman walked in quietly and was about to close the door when two small figures suddenly jumped out from under her feet. The two children rushed into the room and hugged Celia's legs.
"This is what I know about your mother and brother." The baron handed a scroll to Angele before he left and did not say anything else.
About four years later, there was a new member of the Rio Family, and there was a gap between him and his father. Angele's father valued his position and power more and more, so he built a family that had nothing to do with Angele.
"Do it. Dig out the corpse." He took a few steps back and said lightly.
With a click, the door opened.
The two children giggled, and one of them pulled at his hair and beard. The two mothers stood behind them and smiled warmly.
Angele stayed in the house for two more days before leaving.
Angele did not see many familiar faces in the crowd. He was slightly at a loss.
It was a very rude mistake to ask a person who was already in her own home like a hostess.
Angele took out a small bottle filled with light yellow potion and handed it to his father. This was a potion that he had concocted a long time ago. It was a potion that could heal physical internal injuries. The amount of potion was enough to heal a Glowing Elephant, and it was enough for the baron to recover completely. Although the baron was a bit old, he might be able to become a Grand Knight after he regained his strength.
A clear and melodious sound like that of a guzheng.
Angele glanced at her and smiled. "Nothing. It seems like I don't belong here anymore," he said calmly.
* * *
A young man in a black robe got off the carriage.
"Oh, where is Maggie's grave in the Red Rock Mountain? I need someone to take me there in a few days. "
Celia opened the door. It was a spacious room that was half the size of a living room. The room was empty, and there were many instruments that looked like violins hanging on the wall. They were made of red wood, yellow wood, and black wood.
There were two children. One was a girl in a white princess dress, and the other was a boy in a brown slim-fit suit. They were looking at the baron with fear.
"Sure." The baron nodded and did not say anything else. "Celia will be back soon. I'll ask her to see you."
Angele arrived at the Red Stone Mountain Graveyard under the guidance of the butler, Lieben.
"Sure." Angele nodded.
"Celia is attending a party in the inner city of the harbor. Maggie … She got sick last year … She's buried in the Red Rock Mountain Graveyard." The baron stopped smiling and responded in a deep tone.
The fawn-like girl of the past and the slightly mature woman of the present gradually overlapped.
"Celia, you promised to play the violin for us," Oni spoke in a soft voice.
"Mother!" A small voice came from behind.
Master Adolf had been taking care of the family for a long time, and the family was getting stronger and stronger. It was impossible for her father to not have a new girlfriend.
The little girl, Onie, rushed over happily and threw herself into Melanie's arms.
Two beautiful young women were already waiting for them in the living room with a group of maids. They all bowed to Angele and the others as they saw Angele.
"Let's go home and have a good rest. Let's have dinner together. "The baron held Angele's hand and walked to the manor.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Celia was sitting on a chair with her red wooden violin in hand. She put the violin on her legs and pressed the strings with her fingers. It looked like she was playing the lute.
Everyone in the family was extremely cautious when they spoke to him, and there was even a tinge of unfamiliarity and fear in their tone when they spoke to him. After all, the family relied on Angele to develop the family. Angele was the guardian of the family, and no one dared to offend him.
"Nothing. I've never heard you play the violin before. Why don't we go to the music room and enjoy your performance?" Angele suddenly opened his mouth.
"Wait, where are Maggie and Celia?" he suddenly asked.
Angele knew that he would only bring more pressure to the family if he stayed there. He could not go back to the old days.
He looked at Celia, who was intoxicated by the music, and the two children. Angele left the music room quietly.
"When did you come back?"
The two kids were staring at Celia. One of them was lying on the chair while the other one was standing on the side.
"Lieben, tell the guards outside to clear the place. Get everyone out of here. "
Angele stood by the door and stared at Celia quietly.
"Angele!" The baron yelled after seeing the man's face. A joyful smile appeared on the baron's face. He strode over, hugged his son tightly, and patted his back with all his might.
Angele stood in the middle of the living room and looked behind the two women. There were two maids holding the hands of two kids. The two kids were about two or three years old.
"Lady Melanie." Angele nodded slightly.
"Melanie and Sarin. They're my women. "The baron pointed at the two women and smiled.
The baron walked to the hall with a group of people.
* * *
Melanie quickly covered her daughter's mouth. She was afraid that her daughter would annoy Angele. She took her daughter to the side of the hallway and tried not to block Angele's way.
After the father and son separated, the baron turned his head and whispered a few words to a servant beside him. The servant hurriedly nodded and ran back to the manor.
Lieben had received Angele's order, so he followed Angele's orders without any hesitation. He quickly ordered the guards to clear the graveyard.
"I just arrived. Father, long time no see. " Angele also patted the baron's back, but for some reason, he didn't feel as warm as he thought he would be after reuniting with his father.
Angele remembered the shy and innocent Celia in front of him again.
The two women bowed to Angele immediately. They did not dare to say anything.
In the past four years, the baron learned a little about Angele's situation from Adolf. He could guess what kind of path Angele was heading towards.
* DING *
With a crash, the carriage was pushed to the side.
The sun was setting, and the whole graveyard was illuminated by the red sunlight.
"Dead?" Angele was a bit surprised and lowered his head. "Forget it, Father. Please arrange a room for me. I want to rest for a while."
"What do you think? He's cute, right? You're as cute as you were when you were a kid. "The baron smiled.
Angele and the baron entered the small white house in the manor together with a group of people.
When Angele left, the baron looked apologetic, but they both knew that Angele's future would only get bigger and bigger, and the baron needed to find another heir to inherit the Rio Family's bloodline. Angele would not stay here for long.
Angele smiled as well, but he could feel that there was a distance between them.
"Listen to me. I have something to do now. Can you go play in the music room?" She crouched and comforted the two children.
There was a rhythmic knock on the door.
Angele walked away after hearing the order.
In the yellow bedroom, Angele stood by the window and looked at the green fields outside.
His father was no longer the same as before. Angele and his father were the only family he could trust. Now, the baron had built a new family by himself. There were many new members in the family.
Angele looked at Celia, who was talking to the two children in a low voice. He noticed that time was passing. Unknowingly, even Celia had become the child's elder.
Next to the black lacquered wooden fence, the guards carefully spread out and stood guard.
"Yes … Yes." Melanie nodded.
The people in the manor were looking at the elite soldier in silver armor behind Angele's carriage curiously.
The man shook his robe and looked at the baron and the others who were walking towards him.
Angele took one last glance at Onnie and smiled.
Angele glanced at the people in the manor, including the baron's two wives and the servants. They all lowered their heads and looked at Angele with respect.
"Alright, stop messing around." Celia was a little anxious. Normally, she would not mind messing around with her siblings, but now that her cousin Angele was here, she did not want to make him angry. The reason why the family was able to develop to such an extent was because of Angele's teacher, Adolf. If she made Angele angry, she did not know what would happen to her.
The baron noticed that Angele was looking at him and smiled. "They're your siblings, Anse and Oni." The baron walked to Angele and held the children in his arms. He turned around and looked at Angele.
It was necessary for the baron to find two new wives to continue the family.
