"Come on, Niya, you are now the knight lord of our North Wind Castle and are qualified to sit here." Earl Carrick waved to Niya with a smile.

In his eyes, this child was very restrained and a little unconfused.

But this is understandable. It is a major event in life that a knight can obtain the imperial title. He must be blinded by joy, right?

What's more, being a female knight is even more difficult, and it often requires more effort than men.

"Thank you, Count..." Niya looked at the half-empty seat on the round table and was slightly confused.

She originally wanted to sit next to Raven, but changed her mind halfway through and finally sat quietly next to her father.

"...My father, please try the strong fruit wine I brewed specially. This is a very popular wine in the capital of the kings in recent years. It is said that it was introduced by some elves back then, and few people know how to brew it.

I also used many methods to figure out its brewing principles and materials after drinking it. Now that I have returned to the territory, I finally have the opportunity to make it myself.

Sister Niya officially became the lord knight of the family, so I would like to congratulate you with this wine.”

Alice said as she took out a very exquisite silver wine utensil and poured a glass of it very elegantly for everyone present.

"..." Lei Wen looked at the wine glass in front of him silently. This was prepared by Alice for everyone. The translucent silver cup was very exquisitely crafted and could be regarded as a handicraft. Especially the faint white mist was emitted around, which was a little cold to the touch, and I don't know how it was done.

However, through the Eye of Identification, he could see its material intuitively.

Don’t underestimate this wine glass, the ingredients are quite complex. Because it is fused with a magical ore called ice crystal ore, it will have a faint white mist. This ore contains a large amount of ice energy, and just a small piece can cool the room for at least one week in the hot summer. It is very magical.

Of course, it can not only reduce heat, but also has many uses. Runes, forging, magic patterns, alchemy... as long as you need to fusion ice energy, you will use it.

"Well... it's good, good wine, it's the taste. I remember that I drank this wine at the dinner last time when I went to Wangdu to report my duties. Five years have passed." Earl Carrick sighed after drinking it all. When he went to Wangdu last time, he was still full of energy. The old king was in good health and trusted him very much. And at that time, he was highly praised for his achievements in the Northern Region for many years.

Unexpectedly, they are suspicious of each other now. He even planned not to go to the capital this year on the grounds of physical discomfort. Because he was really worried that he would never come back again after this trip. After all, the old king is old and of course he has to pave the way for his successors. He has neither the royal bloodline nor the bloodline of the princes, and his geographical location is also very sensitive.

When he thought of this, he felt depressed. Especially when he thought that the family currently does not have a legitimate heir, he became even more ignorant.

He really needs to give birth to a child through the blood of the Massian family. Only in this way can he avoid the political purge that will definitely come. As he said before, even if the old king is for the sake of the heroic spirit of the Grand Duke Asel, he will at least have room for his children. Otherwise, he can only fight to the death.

"Leiwen, what are you thinking?" Yu Guang glanced at Leiwen beside him, and asked unconsciously as he stared at the wine glass with a heart-wrenching look.

Although he also despised this prodigal son in his heart, he married his beloved daughter after all. And maybe when the family is in danger, he can still play a role.

"Uh...I'm just thinking about how such a good wine was made." Lei Wen was interrupted by the count, slightly embarrassed, and could only speak perfunctorily.

"..." Natalie put down the wine glass and curled her lips gently. In her eyes, Raven is a person who only knows how to speak out but is actually useless. He is good at drinking until he is drunk. It is not that everyone here does not know what kind of person he is, what are you good at pretending? He is afraid he can't even figure out the basic principles of brewing.

"Ha, my brother-in-law must have drunk a lot of good wine in Wangdu before, and I believe he has drunk a lot of lie fruit wine. Do you think my wine is different??" Alice smiled and dragged her cheeks and looked at Lei Wen very interested. She originally hoped that her father could pay more attention to her. Now it was a good opportunity, because she knew that her father actually valued Lei Wen very much for various reasons. Her sister looked at him coldly, but she could be more proactive.

Compared to those old men who might marry those old men, Lei Wen is always better than them. You should know that those old guys are perverted, and you can't think of it. And in her opinion, Lei Wen is very easy to control. She has always been very pessimistic about marriage. If possible, she hopes not to marry anyone in this life. Even if she really wants to marry, it is barely acceptable to marry someone like Lei Wen. Because he has no ability to control himself at all, and occasionally he can be used as a punching bag, and he usually thinks he doesn't exist.

Of course she knew that Lei Wen was a fool, so she also thought about him when asking questions.

As a once famous playboy, drinking is naturally his strength. Even if he doesn't know how to drink, he can still tell whether it's good or bad after drinking too much, right?

If you can't even say anything like this, what else can you say?

"..." Raven looked at Alice's expectant eyes and probably guessed what she was thinking.

This little girl is definitely a big guy and has no choice but to choose her acting skills. Those who don’t know would think she is a naive and curious about everything. Naturally, she makes her father pay attention to her in this way.

If I don’t answer, my handle is in her hands, God knows what else to do.

After thinking about it, he said seriously: "Free fruit wine is a purely brewed fruit wine, and its main ingredient is the familiar dragon fruit. However, it is not an ordinary dragon fruit. It is said that the best fruit wine grows around volcanoes and even higher-level fire crystal mines. Their fruits often contain a considerable amount of fire elements. The wine brewed with them has a warm taste and a long aftertaste, and it pours into the body like a hot stream.

Although this glass of wine also contains a faint fire element, it does not have that natural feeling. Although you specially used a silver horn cup containing ice crystals to neutralize a part, there are still some differences.

Actually, I don’t know what method you used to imitate it, but it is already very powerful. I believe that even if you sell it at a high price, there will be many merchants willing to buy it."

After Raven finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all. In fact, he knew exactly what the ingredients were used for this wine, but he definitely couldn't explain it very clearly. Alice really made a few tricks and used very ordinary ingredients to brew a famous high-end wine.

"Wow... brother-in-law, you can tell the difference before you even drink it. You are right. In fact, this is just made by me with ordinary Yin Tao. However, I have worked hard to reconcile the taste and retain the elements, and you have discovered this..." Alice stared at Lei Wen with her big eyes. What she didn't expect was that she really planned to make a big profit with this secret recipe. After all, as an alchemist, she usually needs money to study and research. Moreover, she is very picky in doing things, and she will not sell works that she is not satisfied with even if she loses them. Her father rarely gives her a large amount of money, so she can only find a way for herself.

"Well, this is not a real fruit wine? I really didn't find any difference." Earl Carrick frowned and asked Alice to pour another glass. After drinking it, he began to think about it carefully. He personally likes this wine very much, which is very suitable for the tastes of people in the Northern Region. After drinking it, he was steaming and the intensity was just right.

If the materials are ordinary and mass-produced, they will definitely be very popular even if they are more expensive.

Don’t underestimate it. The people of Northern Europe have never been able to live without wine on the dining table. The wealth contained in it is quite large, and it can even be sold to neighboring countries.

To be honest, Alice has always been growing up in his stockings. She was sent to Wangdu to study since she was a child and only came back once every few years.

It's because she looks too much like her wife, and she will unconsciously think of her when she sees her. He has only loved this woman in his life, but he left him so early. And it's because of giving birth to her...

Now that her youngest daughter looks older, she seems to be able to do something useful for her family, rather than just letting her get married and seek political capital through marriage.

In fact, he really thought about this issue seriously...

But what he cared more was the interaction between Raven and her.

It can be seen that Alice is not as disgusted with Raven as her sister, and even seems to be quite good to him.

In fact, the count occasionally blames himself for this matter. His beloved daughter now regards him as an enemy. Every time she sees her lifeless eyes, she will of course feel heartbroken as a father.

Since that's the case, it's better to change people. You should know that Alice is 16 years old and will be 2 months away.

Thinking of this, the count gently put down the wine glass...
