Chapter 1453 Allen's Past

Alan had a dream.

He reviewed the past in his dream.

Although he knew it was a dream, Alan could not wake up.

Various images emerged and then disappeared.

The last image remained in front of Alan's eyes, and then slowly gathered into a specific outline.

Alan immediately recognized the current image - that was the first time he saw his mother crying.

Alan, who came back from playing outside, pushed open the door and entered his and his mother's home.

It was a surprisingly small shabby house.

After putting a bed, there was almost no other space.

Mom sat by the bed, crying secretly.

Alan, who was only 8 years old at the time, did not understand why his mother was crying.

But he could feel that his mother was quite sad.

After seeing Alan come back, his mother immediately wiped the tears from her face, trying to stop the tears from flowing out.

But - no matter how his mother wiped, she could not wipe the tears from her face clean.

Instead, the more she wiped, the more tears she wiped.

In the end, his mother simply gave up wiping her tears and waved to Alan, signaling Alan to come over.

Allen, who didn't understand what was going on, slowly walked to his mother's knees, and then was picked up by his mother and placed on her legs.

"Mom... why are you crying?"

"I'm sorry... Allen, it's all because of me that you and I have to live in such a small, shabby place..."

At this point, the tears from her mother's eyes began to flow more and more.

"Mom... don't cry..."

"Alan, when you grow up, you must work hard and become a noble, so that you can add a 'Feng' to your name.'"

"'Feng?'"

That was the first time Allen knew the word "Feng".

The first time he knew this... a word that countless people dream of adding to their names.

"Nobles and commoners cannot marry and have children. The reason why you don't have a father is because there is no 'Feng' in my name, and he is a noble, and his name has the word 'Feng'... If... if my name is Mina von Jones..."

This was also the first time Allen heard about his father from his mother.

Ever since Allen could remember, Allen had no memory of his father.

From childhood to adulthood, his mother had always been with him.

Even now that Allen has become a general of the Frankish Empire, Allen does not know who his father is, and does not know what his father looks like.

Until his mother died of illness, she did not want to mention the man's name.

Allen only knew that his father was a nobleman.

A nobleman who abandoned him and his mother.

His mother was originally a maid in his father's mansion.

His father fell in love with his mother's beauty.

At that time, his father said all the good things, such as "I will definitely marry you.", "I don't care even if you are a commoner."

And his mother foolishly believed the man's lies.

After the deceived mother became pregnant with Allen,

she was worried that others would find out that her father had an illegitimate child, so she ruthlessly abandoned her mother and Allen who was still in her belly at that time.

When he drove his mother out of the mansion, his father said something to her that she would remember for the rest of her life: "How can a nobleman marry a commoner!"

"Mom... you really don't cry anymore..."

Allen instinctively comforted his mother.

"Woo, woo woo woo woo..." But his mother's tears just couldn't stop.

"Mom..."

...

...

The picture in front of him changed again.

The light began to distort.

The distorted light finally reorganized a new picture.

Alan immediately recognized this new picture - this was the night when he just became a general and attended the generals' party.

Alan relied on his talent and luck to gain the appreciation of Emperor Shade. He was promoted by Emperor Shade all the way.

Finally, he became the first general of civilian origin in the Frank Empire.

However... Alan's life after going through so much trouble to become a general was not very satisfactory.

"You are that Alan Jones, right? Humph! It's really annoying! The new general is a reckless man, but I didn't expect him to be a civilian!"

"Alas... The dignity of the general has been trampled on..."

"Civilian, you better be careful. It's best not to make any mistakes in the future. I will do my best to find out all your mistakes and then take away your rank of general!"

The nobles of the Frank Empire monopolized all senior civil and military positions.

The highest rank of the Frankish army, the general, has always been held by only nobles.

The nobles who have long monopolized senior military positions are naturally very unhappy with Allen, who was born in the commoner family.

Since Allen became a general, his colleagues have made no secret of their sarcasm towards Allen.

They wish Allen would make a mistake as soon as possible and then be kicked out of the ranks of generals.

So since becoming a general, Allen has lived a life of treading on thin ice.

He dared not make the slightest mistake, for fear of being caught by his colleagues.

While avoiding mistakes, Allen also worked hard to win military merits.

Allen actually had no interest in fighting and fighting.

He did not choose to join the army for lofty ambitions such as defending his country.

The purpose of his choice to join the army was only one from the beginning to the end - to become a noble and add a "Feng" to his name.

Since he could remember, his mother kept telling Allen: No matter what, he must become a noble.

Become a noble at all costs!

When Allen was young, he didn't know the difference between nobles and commoners.

But Allen remembered his mother's teachings clearly.

"No matter what, he must become a noble" - unconsciously, this has become Allen's obsession and the code of conduct for all Allen's actions.

And joining the army - is the only way Allen, who has been very strong since childhood, can think of to have a chance to become a noble.

But becoming a noble - how easy is it?

Even though Allen has become a general and has obtained the highest rank in the Frankish Army, he still has no chance to become a noble.

In the Frankish Empire, it is difficult and almost impossible for commoners to become nobles.

Since the founding of the country, there are almost no people who can jump from commoners to the aristocratic class.

If you want to become a noble, if you want to add the word "Feng" to your name, you must make considerable military achievements.

A great, great military achievement...

...

...

The scene in front of him changed again.

The light was distorted again.

Then it was reorganized.

The reorganized light this time was all dark lines.

The light in front of him was so dim.

Alan remembered this place.

This is the cage.

After being defeated by Su Cheng on the banks of the Wei River and captured alive by Su Cheng, Alan was locked up in this wooden cage and then transported to Pendragon.
