German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 4 A Typical Start for Nobles
"I know it's cruel for you, but I hope you can pull yourself together."

The man outside the door stated the facts to Jolin.

It was raining heavily outside, and the air seemed cold and damp.

Carl just looked at the man outside the door, looking up at him silently.

Carl was uncomfortable with a complex emotion that was difficult to express.

The parents went to the town to buy some items, and when they came back, it rained heavily, and a mudslide formed on the dirt road, turning them into two cold corpses.

On the next day, a day was chosen, and the villagers held a funeral for them graciously. This was not only the status of Carl's parents during their lifetime, but also their good character.

Carl was alone in front, looking at the two tombstones and being speechless.

He just sighed calmly, and he had already imagined everyone's heartfelt feelings in his mind.

"What a poor little guy, he's only eight years old this year."

"The couple are good people, why would the gods show no mercy to them?"

"The pair of sluts are finally dead! It turns out that this day came so quickly."

"Their inheritance must be mine! The little bastard is not worthy of the fields and the estates."

"Why don't you take this little bastard away with you? What a pity."

……

Karl grew older, perhaps psychologically.Become very sensitive to those malicious emotions.

Apart from friends of the parents such as the pastor, those who attended the funeral also had some people who had long disliked their family. They could not accept the behavior of a little orphan inheriting their own piece of land.

It doesn't matter if you take pleasure in others' misfortune, or you have sincere sympathy.Carl knows one thing, life will not be so peaceful after that...

Carl is eight years old and is studying in a school in Lincun.Because he did not have the ability to inherit and continue the family, this made many people peek at his family's legacy.

Perhaps the saddest joke is nothing more than this. I once thought about going to the battlefield to be a civil servant, because inheriting the family business is really wasting my life.

It's good now, the family was ruined before the war came, and there was no choice.

"A young orphan with a large family property, those so-called relatives should not be far away, let alone abuse, it will be difficult to live in the future..."

Carl sighed, sat up and picked up a book to read.

There is no Dickens in this world, at least Karl has never heard of it, so the book he found also tells the story of an orphan, but it is far less legendary than "Blood and Tears of the Lone Star".

After reading it for a while, Karl felt tired, so he came to the study. The middle-aged man was gone, and there was still his unfinished manuscript on the desk, which was a novel.

It's just that no publisher has published it for him yet, but he still insists on writing, and now, more than half of it has been written.

If it was placed in the previous life, it should belong to the writer who used love to generate electricity.

Karl is sitting here for the first time, in his father's place.Picking up the manuscripts that my father regarded as treasures, looking at the text after text...

"Ha, my father really doesn't have the talent for writing, but he's just a hobby..."

Turning his head, Karl saw the pen, which was left by his father's father, that is, Karl's grandfather. It is said that it was his father's birthday present when he was ten years old.

However, Karl is not yet ten years old, and he has already inherited this gift.

"What bullshit god, just let me live like this?"

……

Then Carl tidied up his hands neatly, lay down on the table and began to sob.

He didn't know why he was sobbing, maybe it was the eight years of family relationship, maybe the parents of the two generations had passed away...

----------

It's been a week since the parents' funeral, and Carl's family has had a predictable wave of guests, and they're not very kind.

"According to the laws of the empire, you must have a legal guardian before you reach adulthood."

There were three people standing in the room besides Karl, the pastor, the village chief and the distant uncle.

Since Karl is only eight years old, the empire is legally considered an adult at the age of 16. Before that, Karl must have a guardian.And there must be a blood relationship.

And the malicious, sloppy-looking guy who was standing looked at Carl with a look that was sure to win——Luma Wells Anpurnimir.

"Luma Wells Anpurnimir, your uncle, is willing to be your guardian. He will take care of you until you reach adulthood." The village chief said in a very flat tone, and handed over a document .

This is a guardian's application letter, which means that the uncle is very generous and willing to take in the orphan and quietly evacuate the inheritance.Moreover, the village chief and the priest both signed it as witnesses.

The last group of guardians also had Luma's name, so they were short of signing themselves and selling themselves.

"It's really, a typical palace drama."

This was the first time Carl received the news, but everything was not connected, and in the end he only had to sign it himself.This was clearly arranged in advance.

And this Uncle Luma has put a lot of thought into it. He has more than one relative who is so far away that he doesn't know where. He should be the one who gives the most benefits, so he put on a bad face with the village chief.

The guardian is not just a caring relationship. Children are not sensible, so the property management right is in the hands of the guardian before they reach adulthood.To put it bluntly, it is to work hard for several years to evacuate Karl's parents' property.

Of course, these are all within Karl's expectations, although they will be very distressed and disgusting after they actually happen.

Raising his head, Karl carefully looked at the expressions of the three of them.

The priest expressed some guilt and worry. After all, he was Karl's father's sincere friend, even a close friend.He also likes Karl Jr., and he knows that Luma and Karl's father are at odds.

But the law of the Imperial Law is like this. It must be a blood-related guardian, unless he kills those distant relatives overnight, in order to obtain guardianship.

But all he can do is sign his name with guilt, which is the only thing he can do.

The village chief's face was calm and calm, it seemed that he had received a lot of benefits, and he and Lu Ma flirted with each other. Their behavior was really disgusting and disgusting.

As for his future guardian, the silly basket Luma, let's not talk about his ugly face and Abaaba's heart.

This guy looked so determined to Carl that he knew that life would be difficult in the future, not to mention whether he would be abused, or whether his new life would end in an accidental death.

However, Luma is very pertinent in his heart. He believes that his ability is much better than that brother, and he deserves this inheritance.

Of course, this ability is not an ability in the true sense. As a barely literate guy, Uncle Luma is not even as good as eight-year-old Karl.Nature has no ability to speak of.

His so-called ability is to make babies, yes, to give birth to children.

The eldest son served in the Imperial Central Army and was said to be a lieutenant officer.The second son has just entered the military academy, and he will be no worse than his elder brother in the future.
