Chapter 115 - 115 97 Brothers Reunite_1

115: Chapter 97, Brothers Reunite_1 115: Chapter 97, Brothers Reunite_1 “Master, the eldest and second young masters are here.”

Upon hearing the servant’s paradoxical words, Hudson almost thought he had sprouted two sons.

He quickly reacted, understanding that the “eldest and second young masters” the servant referred to were his own elder brothers.

The advent of this messy form of address was likely due to habit.

After all, when they were back at home, these were how they were referred to.

However, upon arriving in the Mountain Domain, Hudson was automatically upgraded to “master,” whereas for the two elder brothers, the servant presumably followed the habit deeply embedded in his heart.

He had no time to fuss over this; it was normal for a servant to be slow-witted.

If he were a bit smarter, he wouldn’t be a servant, would he?

If he were intelligent, based on his merit of following Hudson for many years, he would’ve been promoted to a more important position already.

“Arrange for their reception first, I’ll be there once I’ve finished freshening up.”

Hudson spoke with considerable joy.

This joy, springing from the depths of his heart, seemed to be an instinct.

In the memories left by the original owner, the two elder brothers had always taken good care of him.

As the heir, Hudson did not reject these feelings.

After all, humans are social animals.

If there were no affections at all, life would be rather exhausting.

If he weren’t feeling a little hesitant, unsure of how to face them, perhaps he wouldn’t even need to freshen up and would’ve rushed to meet them directly.

There was no need for formalities among brothers.

Unless there were outsiders present, it didn’t matter if the etiquette was breached.

After quickly finishing freshening up, Hudson also adjusted his mentality.

Follow his heart and there was no need to over-perform.

If you tried to hide who you are in front of familiar people, you were more likely to leave clues.

Given the many events that occurred in the years they were separated, changes were inevitable.

…

“Nelson, Evola, it’s been a while!

When our father sent the invitation letters last time, I thought we should’ve met a long time ago.

I never expected it to be delayed until now.”

Hudson spoke with a tone full of emotion.

In the blink of an eye, it’s already been three years.

It must be said that in the world of nobles, reunions were few and far between.

If it weren’t for the Koslow Clan’s huge gains this time, requiring them to consolidate their strength and intimidate those with ill intentions, the three brothers didn’t know when they’d have the chance to meet again.

Even if it’s just a few hundred miles away, it often felt like two different worlds.

Without significant events, few people would travel hundreds of miles for a visit.

Even letter correspondence was rare.

After all, the cost of sending letters was high in this era.

Without a dedicated postal service, one could only send their messengers.

“It indeed has been a while, but, Hudson, your change has been significant!

When I received our father’s letter, I thought it was someone’s prank.

Who would have imagined that in just three short years, the teenager who was always skipping knight-training, leaped to become the renowned Mountain Baron.”

Nelson responded with a hearty laugh.

It was clear he was truly happy for Hudson.

As the eldest sibling, the title of Baron was attached to him since birth.

According to the inheritance law of the Alpha Kingdom, as long as Nelson himself didn’t act recklessly, and isn’t an idiot in cultivation, he could smoothly inherit the title.

Being born with a golden key, he naturally had no reason to be jealous.

When his brothers were able, the Clan’s power would grow continuously, which would benefit everyone.

In this aspect, Nelson undoubtedly set a good example, laying the foundation of “brotherly love and filial piety” at home.

In Hudson’s memories, his childhood knight training was completed under the supervision of this elder brother.

In simple terms, he was beaten quite a few times.

However, apart from being strict with them in terms of cultivation, he took great care of his younger brothers in the daily life.

As the eldest son and the first in line to inherit the title of Baron, Nelson was naturally entitled to more resources.

And he was always sharing these benefits.

Even when their stepmother moved in, she was able to behave so appropriately, which was largely attributed to this elder brother’s influence.

As heir apparent, he had many privileges.

The servants would dare to neglect Hudson, a younger son, but would absolutely not dare offend the heir.

As Hudson remembered, before his elder brother left, he had warned all the servants in the house.

Especially those who sided with the Lady Baron, they were directly beaten up by him into a half-paralyzed state.

They literally ended up half-paralyzed and met the Lord of the Dawn within a month.

The subsequent misfortunes were most likely the acts of Baron Redman.

A son and a servant are clearly not on the same level, and unstable elements obviously couldn’t be allowed to remain.

The deterrence was exceedingly obvious; even after two or three years, the servants of the house were still very disciplined.

Everyone knew that if the eldest young master gets angry, he can genuinely kill, regardless of who the victim is, even if it’s Lady Baron’s confidant.

If they died, they died in vain.

“That’s true, in the two years that Nelson left home and less than two years since I left, your changes, Hudson, have been truly unimaginable.

But, Hudson, you’re not considerate at all.

If we hadn’t returned home, we wouldn’t have known about all that happened.

You are too softhearted, Hudson.

Laisol dared to steal your Life Essence, and you didn’t even beat him up?

But you can rest assured, beating up a younger brother is what I do best.

We already told Priest Kueen, we won’t let that kid be treated; he’ll have to lie in bed for at least another half a month.”

After hearing Evola’s words, Hudson’s face changed, seeming as if he had been reminded of past events he didn’t want to recall.
