Life in a different world begins with hidden strength

Chapter 26 Choosing a Fiancé

Students at Violet College have vacations in batches, with lower-grade students taking exams early to make room for seniors, and the full winter break is expected to begin in mid-December.

A two-and-a-half-month vacation. The new school season will not begin until March 1st.

Winters in the Eastern Continent are long and cold, often with persistent and widespread snowfall.

During a time when everything is frozen and everything is silent, humans who reduce their range of activities and stay at home for the winter will think more about reproduction.

The Origin Festival held on January 1st every year is the most important festival of the year.

Origin not only means the beginning of the new year, but also a metaphor for the origin of life. Also known as Blind Date Day and Engagement Day.

Half a month before the Origin Festival, unmarried men and women will gather frequently in order to meet their favorite partner.

Twenty-one Elm Street.

The Hongfeng family's residence is almost adjacent to the Langton family.

The building with dark red walls is made entirely of strips of stone, and there are few combustibles inside. The high-purity fire blood of members of the Hongfeng family may inadvertently release heat from their bodies, causing a fire.

According to the royal capital's etiquette requirements, the residences of earl-level nobles can only have a maximum of four floors, and the Hongfeng family is no exception.

In the private dining room on the top floor, Grenville, who had just arrived home, looked distressed and lamented softly: "Time is running out, who should I choose?"

While descendants of nobles enjoy their rights, they inevitably have to fulfill corresponding obligations.

Marriage!

The patriarchal law stipulates that girls have a certain range of limited choices before they are twenty years old. If you are over twenty years old, your family will force you to arrange a partner without any chance of rejection.

Exceptions are made for female spellcasters. Because of their scarcity, it is necessary to prevent the brain drain caused by out-marriage.

Grenville picked up the list handed over by the maid and read it from beginning to end. The images of young faces printed in color using magic cameras are lifelike. The list includes some general information, including name, age, family background, current status, and honors received.

Most of the candidates are northern nobles who usually have a lot of interest exchanges. The Langton family is among the most recommended, with a larger number.

As one of the four beauties of the Violet Academy, Grenville is surrounded by many suitors. Therefore, the vision is extremely high. It is inevitable to prefer shortage to excess.

Excellent suitors mostly have financial conditions and personal strength. It's just more or less. In her opinion it won't have much impact. Mainly focus on personal image and temperament. I hate some slovenly members of the opposite sex, who feel very unclean and sloppy.

The rough and heroic image is certainly more popular in the male circle and is easily recognized. But in the eyes of many aristocratic ladies, they feel dangerous, even physically repelled and frightened.

Clean and elegant handsome men are a resource, far rarer than beautiful women of the same appearance.

Normal men don't care too much about appearance. Both physical fitness and intelligence are the focus of survival and competition.

Perhaps, the former is a shortcut.

However, the entire race does not allow a large number of weak and handsome men.

The nobles in the north are very martial. The strong ones have a high status, while the weak ones, even if they are direct descendants of the lord, their status is not much better than that of a servant.

If Mi Jiaan was not a one-of-a-kind spell caster, there would be no way he could lie down and live in peace for the rest of his life.

Grenville turned to the end of the list and finally saw a new face.

His face was as handsome as a god, as dazzling as the sun.

The living conditions of the nobles are favorable, and their appearance is mostly above the five-point standard, with an average score of six.

However, being very good-looking is another concept. The red-haired girl's eyes showed confusion and admiration. She was stunned for a long time when she thought of the black-haired boy jumping onto the ring.

"Mi Jiaan, why didn't I see it before?"

"Miss, his previous performance is not worthy of you. Although he has the ability to cast spells, he has no attributes and limited development potential. His father, Barus, is sixth in the line of succession and has five brothers and sisters. This time, we After getting the information, Mi Jiaan may be a born awakener, showing strength beyond most of his peers. Moreover, he is good at healing spells. He has the followers of super-powerful men, and he is likely to become the powerful elder of the Langton family in the future. ." The maid carefully organized her wording to answer.

The family responded so quickly! Grenweier sighed in her heart, and after exchanging the rosters, she made her choice.

"Mi Jia'an! Submit the invitation for me as soon as possible and make an appointment to meet."

"Yes, Miss Grenville!"

……

Mi Jia'an sneezed inexplicably, and he didn't know who he had provoked to worry about him. As a result, a spell scroll that was about to be drawn was suddenly scrapped, which made me feel inexplicably upset.

"Master, something strange seems to have appeared on me." Yinfei timidly poked her head out of the quilt.

"Let me take a look." Mi Jia'an turned the lamp to shine on Yin Fei.

She pulled down her collar slightly, and inexplicable black lines appeared under her delicate collarbone.

"what's up?"

Mi Jiaan will not think that it is his fault. Putting his hand on it, the black lines disappeared inexplicably. After the hand left, it slowly reappeared.

"It's so magical..." Yin Fei blinked her curved eyelashes.

Mi Jiaan smiled slightly awkwardly: "Let me see if there are any other places?"

"No, I'm so shy." The half-elf girl resisted.

"Look, let me have a look." The two struggled for a while, and Mi Jiaan finally got what he wanted.

Indeed, it only exists under the collarbone. It doesn't look like an eyesore, but it gives it a mysterious aura.

"Not before." Yin Fei got back into the quilt and huddled up.

"Okay, I'm sorry. I don't know what happened..." Mi Jiaan apologized on his face.

The lights went out and the waves rolled over them, and their relationship continued to heat up.

Yin Fei happily said in front of the female knight: "Master! I will defeat you tomorrow..."

"You've already won..." Mi Jia'an admitted defeat and lay down, squinting his eyes in contentment. The silver-haired girl's water-snake-like body curves swayed carelessly, and her hands were difficult to control. After years of hard training, there is not a trace of fat on her body: "Master, you are not allowed to cheat with transformation! You must use your own strength..."

"Oh! How do you know..."

Early the next morning, the genius dawned, and Mi Jiaan was forced to wake up. After a simple breakfast, the two of them came to the lawn at the front entrance of the mansion with their wooden swords in hand.

"Master Xiaoan, please show your strength!" Yinfei took a deep breath and put on an offensive stance.

Mi Jia'an didn't seem to wake up, and snorted coldly.

In the blink of an eye, the two figures met and hit each other.

Yin Fei used the basic swordsmanship taught in the academy to the point of proficiency. Attacking and parrying formed instinctive reactions, and she even developed some tricks that were more suitable for her. The wooden sword was like an extended arm in her hand.
