Lu Hong had plunged into the guest room at Count Bacon's Mansion for two days, and Count Bacon didn't mind at all; moreover, Lu Hong was a young man who could defeat Baldo, definitely first-class potential. Count Bacon was counting on Lu Hong to win some face for the Bacon family on the stage of the Eagle Alliance's campaign, at least to make it into the second round of the preliminary matches.
Now, Count Bacon had only one concern about Lu Hong, which was his origin, his birth. This was very important—if Lu Hong turned out to be a fugitive from the Alliance, and the Bacon family hadn't checked his identity thoroughly, it would be terribly embarrassing to be recognized during the competition.
"Weiwei," Count Bacon called his daughter over and asked her with a heavy voice, "has that Lu Hong ever talked to you about his origin?"
"No," Weiwei shook her head. "He's stayed in his room without coming out for two days, just asking me for a history book about the Holy Court."
