Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

The people of Yinshan Territory really didn’t know what a railway was. They didn’t even know that a war that swept across the entire continent had taken place not long ago.

After all, the terrain of the Hidden Mountain Territory is rugged, transportation is inconvenient, and it has few resources and is not near the sea. Therefore, neither the Avars nor the demons are interested in this barren land in Anjou. In addition, although it is located in Anjou, it is at a subtle distance from the dragon's hometown, so the only impression of the Hidden Mountain Territory of the previous war is that a few white lights descended from the sky.

This was regarded as a miracle in the Hidden Mountain Territory at that time, but that was all.

The lords and church members of Hidden Mountain Territory had been appointed even before Alberto's bloody coup, and nothing had changed until now. If the lords of Hidden Mountain Territory had not occasionally sent people to other nearby territories to purchase supplies, they would not even know about the bloody coup.

Larsen is the only blacksmith in Hidden Mountain Territory. Originally, he was not the only one, but because Larsen's craftsmanship was so good, other blacksmiths could not continue to do the job and changed their careers to do other jobs.

Although he is already middle-aged, there are still many women in Hidden Mountain Territory who are secretly watching Larsen. From middle-aged women who are about the same age as Larsen to teenage girls, all of them are secretly watching Larsen working as he forges iron around the blacksmith shop.

Although they said they did it secretly, they have been doing it more and more brazenly in recent years, with some bold village girls even coming up to tease Larsen directly.

The reason is not only that Larsen is the only blacksmith in Hidden Mountain Territory, but also that he has a body full of muscular muscles. In Hidden Mountain Territory where the average person is malnourished, he can be said to be like a god descending to earth. Not to mention that Larsen often has a melancholy expression on his face, and his every move always makes people feel that he has a unique aura.

Coupled with Larson's mysterious past of amnesia, many people speculated that Larson might have originally worked for a wealthy family, and that wealthy family might be even bigger than the lord.

Some people also speculated that Larsen might have originally been a noble, but this speculation was basically only believed by the most innocent girls in Hidden Mountain Territory. Although Larsen's aura was different from others, his blacksmithing skills were not deceptive. Even if he had lost his memory, he still remembered his blacksmithing skills. In the eyes of everyone in Hidden Mountain Territory, only those who used to make a living with this skill would remember it so clearly.

So the answer is obvious. Larsen was probably the exclusive blacksmith of a great lord's family, and his family has been making blacksmiths for generations. This can explain why Larsen has a unique temperament and a muscular body, and why Larsen knows what he should do as soon as he gets a hammer and tongs.

This is a memory engraved in my muscles. Even if my brain loses its memory, my body still remembers it.

Larson could even vaguely feel that this craft was from his family, as if it was passed down to him by his father, who said that he could make a living with this skill if he fell into poverty in the future. He never expected that he would actually put it to use.

"Hey! Larsen, there's a response from the lord, and he wants you to come over!"

Hearing someone shouting this, Larsen stopped forging, shouted "Got it", then packed up the blacksmith shop and prepared to go to the lord's manor.

Just as the people in the territory said, Larsen was not a native of Yinshan. He was picked up from outside by the lord's daughter when the lord sent people to purchase supplies a few years ago.

Because there were blurred letters on the clothes he picked up, the local illiterate lord called him Larsen. Anyway, the pronunciation was almost the same, so the villagers also called him Larsen.

Larsen only remembered that he came to Anjou with a smuggling merchant. He didn't seem to be originally from Anjou, but who would care in this mountain area? Even if someone cared, Larsen only thought that he was originally a blacksmith. After all, as soon as he got the hammer, Larsen knew what to do, and the ironware he forged was the best in the Hidden Mountains. It was even famous far and wide. When he first arrived in the Hidden Mountains, the lord even made a fortune from the ironware he forged. But he was just a blacksmith. Who would care where a blacksmith came from?

Maybe he met robbers on the road, was hit on the head, lost his memory and was thrown here. Or maybe he was far away from his hometown due to the war, got a broken head on the battlefield, and was finally thrown here with the smugglers. Who knows?

According to the villagers, there are too many people like this, so many that even in the remote Hidden Mountain Territory, there are many people who have come here like Larsen. Even Larsen himself doesn't care. He just keeps working as a blacksmith, at least this way he can have food to eat.

Relying on blacksmithing, Larson gradually lived a peaceful life, and he felt that this was how his life would be.

At least that's what Larson thought before he saw the white light.

"You said you were going to Capet?"

Rubin, the lord of Hidden Mountain Territory, looked at the blacksmith who had asked to see him before.

"You still want me to lend you a large sum of money for the trip?"

The obese Rubin stroked his goatee, looked at the blacksmith in the territory, and said, "No, that won't do. You're going to Capet. How are you going to pay me back?"

Larsen said, "I have recalled some of my memories. When I arrive at Capet's hometown, I will naturally send someone to repay you. If you don't believe me, I can mortgage my blacksmith shop and those fields to you."

In fact, it was not just some memories, Larson remembered them all. It might be because he had rested properly in the past few years, or it might be that the white light that fell from the sky and was seen by everyone really triggered some miracle, making Larson want to go outside and take a look. This desire, coupled with his well-recovered body, made his brain recall all his memories.

His original name was Connor Lars. His father was the Grand Duke of the North and he had four lovely children. Now, he had to return to Capet to inherit the position of Grand Duke.

Of course, if I said that, everyone in Hidden Mountain Territory would think I was a lunatic, and even if they really believed it, they would probably only report it to other nobles in Anjou. Larsen rubbed his arm. The assassination and the magic props at that time seemed to have left him with deep sequelae. In addition, he had lost his memory and had not used the power of a professional for a long time, so his strength was probably less than 30% of his peak.

Larsen didn't know what the situation was outside. He had been in this hidden mountain village for about six or seven years, but he didn't even know what the situation was in Anjou, let alone Capet.

Is his father still alive? What about his children? Is the position of Grand Duke still reserved for him? He didn't know any of these.

At that time, Larsen had already discovered clues of the Augustine royal conspiracy, which led to his death.

Because he failed to pass on the information, Larsen could only assume that Augustine's conspiracy and layout had succeeded. Although his disappearance might alert his father and delay the plan, he had been missing for too long and his disappearance would probably only make the Lars family more chaotic.

Larsen was worried that when he returned to Capet, he would find that the North had fallen into the conspiracy of Augustine III, the entire Lars family had fallen apart, his children had been separated, and his brothers were killing each other.

However, the Lars family is so big that even if Augustin III wanted to take action, he couldn't kill all of them, so Larsen felt that he could still find a way to find his family members after returning to Capet.

Larsen sighed heavily. He didn't know how his people were doing. It was impossible that they were all killed by Augustine and his men.

(The last day of 2024 is coming to an end. I would like to wish you all a happy new year. I also hope that 2025 will bring you more happiness, health and happiness. Say goodbye to regrets and welcome a new beginning. But no one will still be reading novels on New Year's Eve, right? Haha, if there is, thank you for your love of novels. I would like to raise a glass here and have a drink with all the book friends. Happy New Year.)
