Chapter 1 Brand of the Holland Family
Chapter 1 Brand of the Holland family
This is a very quiet modern city.
Looking down from a high place, no trace of biological activity can be seen in the entire city.
Except for the occasional leaves and dust blowing in the wind, the entire city was as quiet as an exquisite city model.
The only thing that is incompatible with this peaceful "model" is a swimming pool behind a huge villa, beside the sparkling open-air swimming pool, drinking cappuccino with a depressed look on his face, sitting under a sun umbrella and reading a book.
Pants youth.
The frowning look on his face seemed like he had encountered some problem related to "life and death".
"Introduction to Magic - New Edition of the Royal Mage Academy of the Kaya Empire in 427".
This is the name of the book in the young man's hand, and it is also the basic textbook for the first semester of the mage college he attends.
It describes in detail the "simple" knowledge required to become a mage apprentice, as well as the "simple" method to become a mage apprentice.
Because he has a good basic education, every young man with words in the book is familiar with him.
This was said by Yersen. Hearing Yersen defend the honor of the family, Mr. Holland rarely showed a red face of "pleasure".
This is the origin of the conflict between Brand and Yersen.
Therefore, Brand, who was indulging in "luxurious" years and constantly looking for fun, would be caught by Yersin with a foul face from time to time and lectured him.
Yersin is an idealistic person. He has aimed at revitalizing his family since he was a child and has been working hard for it.
So now is actually the peak of the Holland family.
Yersin has been strict with himself since he was a child, with the goal of revitalizing the family, and you can often see him sweating.
According to imperial law, the title of a hereditary noble is inherited by the eldest son.
As for where this goal came from, we have to mention their father, Lord Viscount Holland.
Mr. Holland was just teaching his two sons to brag casually that day. Who would have thought that Yersen would take it so seriously.
After hearing his "omnipotent" father speak such desolate "facts" in a lonely tone, the young Yersen was deeply affected.
The time-travelers who are tired of playing with things now have to face this big devil called "Final Exam"!
…
I wasted a lot of free time because I was addicted to "Cheat Finger".
"Magic, you are like a gauze girl hiding behind the hazy morning mist. I can't see you clearly, and I can't get what I ask for!"
Every time Yersin heard him talk about the glorious deeds of his family in the past, his heart was filled with excitement.
But when the words were connected into sentences and the sentences were formed into paragraphs, his mysterious and deep eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension.
Mr. Wu Ming, who traveled back in time and merged with the memories of his previous life, struggled to adapt to the "luxurious" life of a medieval aristocrat - living in a castle, eating meat, and having many servants.
And if there is anything about this kind of life that makes him always dissatisfied, then he has to mention his great brother who is extremely self-disciplined and motivated.
But as time went by, he accepted his current life and name.
Browsing at a glance can naturally only give you a vague overview.
Read more, ask more, and you will learn as time goes by.
"The Holland family used to have a glorious past, but it is now in decline."
Although Mr. Holander sounds so inspiring, in fact, the Holander family does not have a glorious past.
This made Brand more troubled.
When he first came into contact with this kind of life, Mr. Wu Ming was still not used to it.
For an ordinary nobleman with a good basic education, the difficulty level of this book is probably equivalent to that faced by college freshmen on Earth in advanced mathematics.
As soon as he closed and opened his eyes, he came to a strange and mysterious world.
The ancestors of the Holland family started out as pioneer knights. After opening up the territory, they obtained the title of baron. Then through generations of continuous development, the barony developed into the current viscounty.
Although magic is indeed a profound subject, if it only involves the knowledge of junior mage apprentices, it is not that profound.
As Brand's eldest brother, although Yersin is not very young, he has now reached the level of a senior knight apprentice and is second to none among his peers.
Although there are no mobile phones in this technologically backward world, we cannot surf the Internet.
Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, Yersin will inherit the Holland family's territory and viscount title after his father passes away.
The animal milk must be fresh, with an appropriate amount of refined sugar added; the white bread must be freshly baked, and evenly spread with a layer of golden honey; the clothes must be handmade, using the best fabrics and using magic gold thread.
Tattoo with shiny gold edge
Yersen has always been very dissatisfied with Brand, a useless brother who has always been greedy for pleasure, has no ambition to make progress, and also questions the glory of his ancestors.
In fact, as far as the basic knowledge of magic is concerned, the "Introduction to Magic" in the young man's hands is already very simple.
After grumbling gracefully, the young man in swimming trunks frowned and continued to study hard.
This greatly satisfied Mr. Holland's vanity, even though Brand often expressed doubts about his remarks when he was present.
"It's so outrageous. How can you question the glorious history of your family!?"
Yersen Holland, the eldest son of Viscount Holland and Brand's eldest brother, is two years older than Brand and only celebrated his 18th birthday this year.
About half a year ago, Mr. Wu Ming, who was extremely dissatisfied with the company after staying up late and working overtime, received the attention of the time traveler god.
How can one bite make you fat?
At this time, the time has come to the end of the semester.
Brand's lifestyle is famous in the viscounty for his extravagance.
From then on, bringing back the past glory of the Holland family has become Yerson's life goal that he always pursues.
It’s fine if you don’t seek advancement and don’t work with him to revitalize the family, but what’s going on with such extravagant waste of family property?
Because I didn't study hard on weekdays, and now the exam is approaching and I'm pressed for time.
As for why young people feel so threatened
can only say.
You are a scumbag, you are always like this when exams are approaching.
But no matter if you take it seriously, Mr. Holland is happy to see his eldest son's progress. Seeing that the effect of his teachings is so obvious, Mr. Holland can't help but say it several times in the days to come.
But with all kinds of magical dramas and obedient and obedient maids, Mr. Brand feels that this kind of aristocratic life does have its beauty.
Brand Holland, this is Mr. Wu Ming’s new name, and his new identity is from the Farnes Continent-Kaya Empire-Southern Province-Tole County-Holland Viscounty-Holland Viscount
Second son.
There is still one week left before the final assessment of the first semester of the Mage Academy.
This will seriously delay his future efforts to revitalize his family!
——This is what Viscount Holland told his two sons when they were young.
Brand actually had a period of "progress".
But the final result proved that Brand, apart from being too handsome, was completely useless!
Now he is 16 years old, and he is just getting started with knight training. Although he has the talent to become a mage, he is a scumbag who hates learning, even after the protagonist travels through time.
In short, Brand finally decided to screw up.
Only a "luxurious" life can bring some comfort to his injured soul.
