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

Aarons didn't want to discuss his own problems, so he deliberately skipped the topic of rest and let Claire talk about the empire first.

"Although I don't like that guy Moro Oufei, his feelings for Senior Sister Daiya are indeed real."

Daiya was Jiangyue’s former apprentice - when Keliya had just started to learn magic techniques, the young woman had already been studying with Jiangyue for a long time.

She is a genius in magic technology. If she is given ten years, she may be able to develop new technology that subverts the existing rules.

"But Senior Sister Daiya fell in love with that man... For that guy, Senior Sister gave up her talent and future and married him as a commoner."

It was not uncommon for honorary nobles without territories to marry commoners, and no one would specifically criticize it - but Moro Ofei was the heir to the three great dukes, not some small noble without power.

Although he was not the strongest candidate for the dukedom at that time, he still bore the title and responsibilities of a great nobleman.

Such a man suddenly married a commoner woman, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the conservative aristocratic forces.

But Moro relied on his own strength to defeat all the heirs of the Duke of Orpheus in just a few years. It was rumored that he even used rather dishonorable means to force the old duke to abdicate, and finally sent people to assassinate the old duke and all his brothers.

Shortly after he officially became the Duke, his wife died of an unknown illness.

"...I heard this from Teacher Jiangyue."

"Yes, but these are just superficial statements. The real situation is..."

——The actual truth is that the royal family was worried that the nobles would obtain new magic technology, so they secretly sent professional intelligence personnel and bribed the servants of the Duke's Mansion to put a special chronic poison in Deya's daily necessities.

The poison was not lethal, but it would erode a person's intelligence and memory. After realizing that she was poisoned, Daiya immediately made a shocking decision.

She secretly used a special ancient scroll collected by the Duke of Ophir's family, burning her own life force to forcefully suppress the poison.

"In order to complete her research in time, Senior Sister Daiya used a secret method to forcibly reduce her life to only three years to suppress the poison... and she did complete several important projects during this period."

"…It turns out that the royal family isn't clean either."

The power struggle in this country has long been as rotten as a quagmire. Anyone involved in it may be harmed or even pay with their life.

Moro was ultimately unable to prevent his wife's death, but the royal family and other nobles did not obtain the research results left by Deya.

"In fact, Senior Sister Daiya contacted me once during the last period of time. She told me at that time that if Moro Oufei started to intervene in the dispute over the succession to the throne, she would let me take Luo Lan and flee the country as soon as possible."

"Has she predicted something?"

It was impossible for such a talented woman not to guess what her husband was planning - and she specifically reminded Claire because she was worried that this innocent princess would be involved in a cruel struggle.

But this also shows that Duke Oufei had already prepared a dangerous plan.

"So my husband...if we encounter any irreversible situation next, you should stop caring about the empire and take us away from this country."

"--no."

Aarons certainly understood what Claire meant.

The Empire's affairs had nothing to do with him, and neither side was a good person. Even if he just gave up, there would be no loss.

He does not need to bear the fate of the empire, but...

"This is Aarons Morty's responsibility. I promised to make Roland the emperor, and I will do it."

"But you're not actually..."

"I have never accomplished anything before, but I will succeed this time."

Klia finally understood why Karin and Xia Ye were so shaken.

Aarons had actually been bound by his identity without realizing it - his past failure and his current powerlessness made it impossible for him to break free from the abyss of a loser.

If he fails again this time...what will happen?

"I have to be Aarons Moti now... If I'm not Aarons Moti, nothing will be accomplished this time."

"Is that so...Okay."

"Well, if you're fine, go back and rest. Once the battle starts, we'll need you to control the situation... I should also go back to work."

Aarons gave a gentle smile, reached out and gently patted Claire's shoulder, then stood up and walked out of the room without hesitation.

At this moment, Her Royal Highness's golden right eye also burned with blazing flames.

"I, et al., seem to have overlooked the most important thing."

……

Xia Ye has been in a very bad mood these days.

She didn't know what she had done wrong - she had been contributing her best since she met Aarons.

After she transformed into a human appearance and began traveling alone on the continent, she had been acting cautiously, trying her best to avoid anything that might endanger her.

Although she needed to hunt regularly, she had never actually dedicated her body to others... After carefully maintaining her purity for hundreds of years, she was lucky enough to meet Aarons Moti.

The tough souls from the other world would not be destroyed by her predation at all, and those dreamlike memories made her intoxicated.

After a simple calculation of the pros and cons, she decided to stay with Aarons. The price she paid for this was her own ability and body.

But, why?

"Did I do anything wrong?"

She contributed almost all of her strength and offered her body without hesitation. Aarons affirmed her ability and never rejected her desire.

However, Aarons seemed to have no attachment to it.

When faced with a crisis, he would abandon himself without hesitation; when thinking about the future, he thought that he was a person who should not exist.

Why did this happen? Why did the young master whom she was determined to serve for life make such a choice without hesitation?

Was she just an insignificant existence in Aarons' heart?

"Huang Yayin... have you already seen through all this?"

The person who could be regarded as his second mother seemed to have already seen through Aarons' disguise and the hidden truth.

But she did not make it public, waiting for them to discover and solve the problem themselves.

"…What exactly was my mistake?"
