The Knight's Journey to the Empire

Countess Katis thought silently for a long time, then smiled and said softly: "Baron Soran, you have seen my current situation!"

"I have so many official duties to deal with every day. I am so busy that I don't have any extra time to spend with you! But..."

Countess Katis changed her mind and continued, "But after we officially move to the Antilles, I might be able to promise you that I will accompany you to visit various islands!"

Why did Countess Curtis say that?

This was actually her consideration!

……

First of all, the last words left to her by her deceased beloved Count Frank asked her to find a suitable person again, either by marrying someone into her family or by remarrying, but the only thing she should do was not to be a widow.

He also told her to give birth to a suitable heir for the Earl of Curtis's family to inherit the Earl of Curtis's family name and century-old foundation!

Secondly, Countess Curtis is now 28 years old!

At this age in the Knight Continent, where medical and health conditions are very backward, if a woman needs to get pregnant and give birth to her own bloodline, she would be considered an elderly mother!

This involves great risk to one's life!

Then there are Sauron's conditions in all aspects!

This can indeed be said to be the young man who best meets mate selection criteria among the many suitors Countess Curtis has met over the years!

At least in terms of fighting spirit cultivation talent and intelligence level, Sauron is definitely the best one!

Moreover, the inheritance of offspring in this world still places great emphasis on the excellence of bloodline!

Finally, it’s Sauron’s strength!

Soran is now at the professional level of a brave knight, and is getting closer and closer to breaking through to the professional level of a superior knight!

The higher the knight's professional level, the lower the possibility of having offspring!

Therefore, if Countess Katis wants to have children with Soran, she really needs to hurry up!

Otherwise, when Soran breaks through to the upper knight professional level one day, it will be even more difficult!

The reason why she didn't agree to Soran right now, apart from the excuse of being busy with official duties, was mainly because she couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart!

After all, Countess Curtis has been a widow for Count Frank for so many years and has not chosen to marry someone else or remarry. This is enough to show her love for Count Frank!

And now she is asked to accept someone she doesn't love into her life, and even have physical contact with him!

So naturally, this made Countess Katis, who had always been clean and self-respecting, find it a little difficult to accept for a moment.

Of course, Countess Katis did not directly reject Soran's request.

Because she knew that neither she nor Soran had much time left to wait!

Especially after migrating to the [Angliss Islands] in the future, as the two nobles with the highest status at that time, the way they get along with each other is indeed worthy of Countess Katis's careful consideration.

So Countess Katis felt that she had to learn to adapt and learn to accept!

And getting to know each other slowly through dating is a very good choice!

Similarly, although Solon has been influenced by modern ideas, he believes that love is one of the indispensable factors in marriage!

But as the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. He has been traveling to the Knight Continent for so many years and is an upper-class person with a certain status and position.

Therefore, it is inevitable that they will be influenced by the "bad ideas" of the aristocracy of the old era.

So Sauron boldly pursues what he loves. This is possible and he is willing to do so!

But it is absolutely impossible to make him choose to hang himself on a tree and become a dead bootlicker!
