The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

Because this matter was indeed very important, Aarons immediately took Cliya to find Jiangyue.

Although the sage said that she was working on an urgent project, she immediately came out to greet Aarons when he knocked on the door of the laboratory.

"Marquis, do you want to...His Highness?"

"Teacher Jiangyue, someone came to me just now and asked me to say hello to you on his behalf."

Jiang Yue, who was originally smiling, quickly turned serious after seeing Aarons' strange expression and Clary's gloomy face.

"This is something he brought me. Can you help me see what it is?"

After entering the laboratory with the princess, Aarons handed the suitcase to Jiangyue.

After Jiangyue opened the box and took out the set of drawings, her eyes instantly became sharp.

"It's something that Deya left behind... Who sent it?"

"It's Moro Ofei, that bloodless and tearless bastard."

Claire spoke very badly of the duke, and looked as if she wanted to eat him alive - it was the first time Aarons saw her so angry, but he could probably understand the reason.

That duke must have done something unforgivable in the past.

"So it's Morro... What is that kid doing here?"

"He intends to cooperate with me to deal with the Duke of Booker's family, but the deal has not been concluded yet."

After hearing Aarons' answer, Jiangyue's face also showed a nostalgic expression.

Although Klia was still very angry, the sage recalled a different past.

"Dia is a disciple I took in before I officially became your highness's magic instructor. She is a very talented girl... Marquis, you may not know that more than half of the technology used on the Empire's airships was actually developed by her alone."

Developed it alone?! Is that person a genius or a freak?!

"Ten years ago, Sister Daiya was only 25 years old. She had been studying with Teacher Jiangyue for more than five years. Although the content of our studies was completely different, we could be considered sisters from the same school."

"I remember when Your Highness was thirteen years old, one day Daiya suddenly came to me and said that she had met a very outstanding boy... Before that, I thought she planned to spend her whole life on magic technology, but I didn't expect that there would really be someone who would make her heart move."

"That person is Moro Ophi, who was the heir to Duke Ophi at the time... a rotten person with nothing but good looks."

Through the alternating narration of Cliya and Jiangyue, Aarons gradually understood what happened at that time.

——Although the woman named Daiya was just a commoner, she possessed a technical talent that was enough to be recorded in the history of the empire. After being brought to the princess by Jiangyue, her talent finally had the opportunity to blossom and bear fruit.

At that time, Claire was fifteen years older than her, but they were as close as sisters... However, three years later, Dia accidentally met Moro Ofei, who was of the same age as her and was only the heir to the Duke.

"Molo was indeed a very handsome boy. Not only did he have the strength of a fourth-level boy at such a young age, but his appearance and character were also among the best in the aristocratic circle. It's not surprising that Daiya would fall in love with him."

A commoner girl falls in love with the heir of a noble family - many people like such stories, but in reality it may not be so beautiful.

"And that bastard Moro...was also attracted to Sister Daiya at that time."

When a nobleman of high social status met a rare and talented woman, a love affair that was not going to end well began.

Of course, the Duke's family would never allow the heir to marry a commoner with no power, but Moro Ofei was determined to marry Deya at the time - and because of this incident, there was a lot of conflict between the Duke's family and the princess.

And in the end, after struggle and compromise, their marriage was finally recognized...but the conditions put forward by the Duke's family at the time would make people think that it was all just a scam when they think about it later.

"All the technologies developed by Sister Daiya became the private property of the Duke of Ophir's family... and it was with these technologies that they quickly monopolized the empire's airship industry."

Maybe this was a trap carefully designed by the Duke's family to steal their technology - because not long after the two officially got married, Dia suddenly suffered from a strange disease.

"After they got married, I went to visit Deya's child... Although she could hardly walk at that time, she told me that was her happiest moment."

The gradually worsening disease eventually took away the ability of the talented woman to walk and write. In the last days of her life, her husband never visited her again.

"Three years ago, a dispute over succession suddenly broke out in the Duke of Oufei's family... In order to maintain his position, that bastard ruthlessly abandoned Sister Daiya, who was already on her last legs."

"Your Highness, he probably didn't mean it. After all, at that time..."

"I don't know if he did it on purpose. I just know that the bastard didn't even go to see Sister Daiya until she was buried."

At this point in the story, Aarons basically understood it.

In order to seize the technology developed by Daiya, Duke Oufei deliberately let his heir seduce her, and finally took her technology legally for himself, and then plotted to murder her.

Although this conjecture is indeed very reasonable...but is it really the case?

"Teacher Jiangyue, is there a signature on the drawing?"

"Let me see... the signature is Deya Oufei, not Duke Oufei."

"So, who is the Duke's current wife?"

"As far as I know, not yet, but that was information from half a year ago. I don't know if it's available now."

After hearing these answers, Aarons sighed with some emotion.

He already knew the most crucial information, so he immediately made his own choice -

"I understood and I decided to work with him."

"Husband?! No! That guy will definitely betray you!"

"Marquis, what His Royal Highness said does make sense. You'd better think about this matter again."

Since even Jiangyue was a little surprised, Aarons had to explain to them why he did so.

"Although Xia Ye often says that I don't understand women, I still understand men - the Duke will not only not betray us, but will definitely do his best to assist us."

Looking at the expressions of Jiangyue and Keliya that still looked a little confused, Aarons somehow revealed a confident smile.

"I told you before, Teacher Jiangyue."

Even if most of the reasons are just intuition and empathy, Aarons believes that his judgment will never be wrong.

"——I have a very good eye for people."
