Chapter 46

"Thanks."

Rennes accepted the congratulations, he had a good impression of Kenegi.

Although it was only the second meeting, judging from the soul's emotions, Keneji has never been hostile to him, and even has a bit of kindness. He should be a character worthy of deep friendship.

Viola next to him said with a smile: "Since you know each other well, I don't need to introduce any more. Mr. Keneji is a celebrity in our Longshande. He started from scratch and became a rich man in less than 20 years. Canonization of the baron. Ren, you have to follow the example of Mr. Keneji and learn from him."

"Ma'am, I'm honored. It's only with the help of the Mechanics Union that I can achieve what I am today." Kenieji smiled heartily, his face full of humility.

However, Ren could still see that his praise of Viola was quite useful, and he couldn't stop the complacency in his eyes.

The two seemed to be familiar with each other, and Viola said again: "Mr. Keneji has always been a frequent customer in our store and often participates in trade fairs. Unfortunately, he has no chance to cooperate."

"I also want to be the woman's business partner, there will always be opportunities in the future."

Keneji responded in a timely manner, with both regret and expectation in his tone, which seemed very sincere.

Listening to the polite words of the two, Ren couldn't tell which sentence was true and which was false for a while, and he couldn't help but secretly sighed that the people who can mess with the mall are all geniuses.

At this time, a waitress came over and whispered a few words to Viola.

Viola nodded, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, there is a customer over there who needs to make a deal, and the amount is not small. I want to leave for a while."

"Ma'am, please." Keneji understood.

Viola thought for a while, and then said: "Ren, please entertain Mr. Keneji for me." After getting a response from Ren, he left with the waitress.

Seeing her tall figure enter the trading room next to the hall, the two men looked away.

Kenieji turned to Rennes and said with complicated eyes: "Renne, your luck is so good that I am a little envious."

Ren thought he saw something, shook his head and said, "We're just friends, and we've just met not long ago."

"Really?" Keneji smiled incredulously, and realized that Ren didn't seem to be lying, and said tentatively, "Don't you know Ms. Viola's background?"

"have no idea."

Ren shrugged. In fact, he wanted to know for a long time, but he didn't know who to ask.

Keneji couldn't help but looked at Ren seriously again, and sighed: "I even suspect that you are the illegitimate child of the goddess of magic. You don't understand anything, but with your good looks and talent, you actually got along with Viola. So close, how many people in Longshande would dream of taking your place."

Hearing what he said, Ren became even more curious, and asked, "What is her origin?"

Kenieji hesitated for a moment, thinking that this was not a secret, and everyone in Longshande knew it well, so he lowered his voice and said, "Viola is her name, but her surname is Silvery, do you understand?" .”

Ren looked startled, and immediately understood.

In the empire, most civilians have only first names but no surnames. Like Ryan himself, he was called Ryan and nothing else.

The surname is a kind of status, and usually only nobles have surnames, which represent the glory and inheritance of the family.

There are two ways for common people to get a surname, one is to be canonized as a nobleman, and the other is to become a superhuman, build achievements for the empire, get recognition, and then create a family to pass on their surname.

In fact, there is not much difference between these two methods. If you are not an extraordinary person, it is difficult to make enough contributions to confer nobility.

If a person has a surname, it means that his ancestors were once aristocrats, or that he is a descendant of a powerful extraordinary person with family support behind him, and generally has a high social status and belongs to the upper class.

There are many nobles and families in Longshande, but there is one surname that occupies an absolute dominant position, and that is Sylvie.

Because Silver Star is the family name founded by Silver Star Duke!

Not all of the twelve holy soul wizards of the Supreme Council have created a family name, but those who have created are unique, and this is the only family.

In the entire empire, all people surnamed Silvery are descendants of the Silver Star Duke.

Ren suddenly felt stunned.

No wonder Viola has such a strong appeal and regularly holds large-scale trade fairs.

She is only a sixth-level wizard, but she has a channel to obtain a large number of precious items. She runs the Violet House with peace of mind and earns a huge amount of gold shields that ordinary people can't imagine. This includes her own ability, but the help of the family behind her must not be small.

There is an explanation for all this.

Who dares to disrupt the property of the Duke's family? Who dares not to give some face?

Those men who were hostile to him when they saw him with Viola probably wanted to embrace Viola's thigh and become a member of the Duke's family.

"Bah, what a shame!"

Ren yelled in his heart, and then he was delighted again, and he got there first.

However, there is still one thing he doesn't know. The Duke of Silver Star has been in the Supreme Council for more than three hundred years, and has countless descendants. It is said that there are hundreds of family members. I don't know which generation of the Duke's blood is Viola?

"Mr. Keneji, do you know what the relationship between Viola and the Duke is?" Ren asked quietly.

"Viola's father is the Duke's grandson." Kenieji paused, and reminded with some kindness: "Ren, if she doesn't mention Ms. Viola's parents, you'd better not ask."

"Why?" Ren thought to himself, it turned out that she was the Duke's great-granddaughter, and her blood relationship was not far away.

Kenieji lowered his voice again, and explained: "Her father is a legendary witcher, deeply loved by the Duke, but more than 20 years ago, she and her mother, a moon elf mage, broke into the abyss, His whereabouts are still unknown.”

Ren couldn't help being shocked.

Viola's parents are too bold! Dare to break into the endless abyss, isn't that courting death?

The abyss is composed of innumerable planes, and it is so huge that no one has been able to explore its end so far. Demons are everywhere in it, full of evil energy, eroding outsiders at all times, and may be polluted by evil energy at any time and become a fallen person. Not to mention that there are many terrifying high-level demons and abyss lords.

Even if it is a legend, it cannot last long in the abyss.

Either be overwhelmed by endless demons, or become one of them.

Viola's parents have been in the abyss for more than 20 years and have not returned. It is a good way to say that their whereabouts are unknown. The probability of being alive is close to zero, but they are actually dead.

Keneji continued: "Because Viola's father was the Duke's most beloved grandson, and after her parents disappeared, she has a very close relationship with the Duke. In the Silvery family, her status is not low, only a few The son of a duke is a little worse."

"You have to seize the opportunity well. If you can succeed with Viola, at least it will save you decades of struggle." Kenieji patted Ren on the shoulder with an expression that any man could understand.

Ren smiled and didn't speak.

In fact, even if Viola was not from the Duke's family, no man would easily give up the chance to kiss Fangze based on her appearance.

What he is worried about now is that Viola seems to have other purposes, and he can't mess around until he finds out.

When men talk about women, the relationship will be much closer. Ren changed the subject and chatted with Keneji for a while.

Viola came back shortly after, all smiles, apparently a deal was done.

Kenieji exchanged a few words with the two, then walked away politely, and made a meaningful expression to Ren before leaving.

Viola waited until he was gone, and asked suspiciously, "Did he tell you something?"

This woman is too smart!

Ren sighed and replied: "It's nothing, I just mentioned your last name."

Viola's complexion changed slightly, and then he said naturally: "That's all? I was lucky to be born in a Duke's family, and it is also something that many people dream of, but sometimes, the surname will become your burden instead. In fact, even if he Don't tell me, I will tell you sooner or later."

Ren was silent and did not reply.

Viola still stood and talked without back pain, and hadn't experienced the life of the lower class civilians.

The reason why she has the confidence to say this is because she already has something that ordinary people would not dare to hope for in a lifetime.

If her father wasn't the grandson of the duke or a witcher, how could she marry a noble moon elf?

Without the fame and resources of the duke family to support her father, even Viola herself would not exist.

Maybe Viola's father was so talented that he could become an extraordinary person even if he was born in an ordinary family, but without the Duke's help, it would undoubtedly be much more difficult.

And how difficult is it for an ordinary person to become a superhuman?

Ren's background is not bad. Although it is only a remote town, his father's financial strength is good enough to send him to the Extraordinary Academy.

In the town, there are less than twenty people of the same age who are eligible to enter the Transcendent Academy.

More people of the same age, those children of farmers and workers, have no chance to come into contact with the world of superhumans. Even so, before Ryan crossed over, even if he believed in evil gods, it was almost impossible to become a superhuman.

Therefore, Ren is very precious about all of this, and will never take it for granted. He will never miss any method that can help him gain more and stronger power.

Even if it's by means of chasing women, which seems to be a bit low-key.

This is pretty good for Ren. Most of the young people who have passed the soul transformation ceremony can only choose ordinary extraordinary professions.

Even if he has the talent to change jobs as a spellcaster or a wizard, where can he get the money to buy soul power media and demon souls?

These things cost dozens of gold shields, or even hundreds of gold shields. If you can't afford them, you can only sign contracts with major forces or families to serve them. It will be difficult to be free in the future.

It is always a small group of people who control the world.

Even if there is extraordinary power in Ellenus, some few heavenly oddities can break the chains with their own great power and surpass their own class, but they still cannot shake this huge system, and even class solidification is more serious than in previous lives.

As a member of the vested interests, Viola said that this is her burden, which is a bit taken for granted.

Of course, it wasn't Viola's fault, nor anyone's fault.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

No matter which world you are in, it is a common law of nature.

Viola noticed that Ren's expression was a little weird, and he didn't know that there were so many things in his mind, thinking that he was frightened by his family background.

She comforted softly: "Ren, you don't have to think too much. With your talent, you will definitely establish your own family and have your own surname in the future."

Ren nodded slightly, and said, "I will."

Viola was about to say something, but a sudden exclamation erupted in the hall, attracting everyone's attention.
