Chapter 13: Returning Home
From the Kingdom of Lane, follow the road of abundance in the Valley of Peace all the way to the west, through the Cairns Mountains, is the wolf capital of Red Moon City, which stands in the wind, in the endless western continental savannah, and is also an important stop in the border trade between humans and beasts.
With the development of the times, the beast tribes began to consciously absorb human civilization, and they have long been out of the nomadic life of living in pursuit of water and grass, and have established a city and fortress on the grassland.
Although they formed a loose alliance under the common hatred of mankind, it is not uncommon for various tribes to go their own way and attack each other, either today you take a ranch from me, or tomorrow I take you a mine, and the war has never stopped here.
At this moment, in an inconspicuous circus camp outside Red Moon City, in a large tent that was used as a theater, several acrobats on the stage performed hard, while the audience was very small, sitting scattered on their seats.
"Why do you have to choose this place to meet every time?" said two wolf clans sitting in the front and back of the theater, and the man in the back row dressed as soldiers.
"Do you think I want to, it's not because there are few people, you have participated in the looting several times in the past few years, I tried every possible way to tell the Intelligence Department that it was for the mission, but you actually raised a person of your own last year, are you psychopathic! Have you forgotten whether you are a human or an orc?"
The wolf merchant dressed as a merchant in front of him scolded.
"How does the Intelligence Department know?" the wolf soldier asked.
"There are guys from your training class at the same time in the city defense corps, who recognized you and reported to the military headquarters. Seeing the antics of the clown on the field, the wolf merchant couldn't help but laugh out loud with the rest of the audience.
"Then transfer me back! I'm really fed up with wearing this stupid magic costume every day! It's obviously three years, but three years later, three years later, three years later, and three years, it's almost ten years old!"
The wolf soldier said frantically, grabbing his ears with both hands, and he pulled them down directly, and the magic disappeared, revealing a pair of ears of the same kind. It turned out to be a magic weapon in the shape of a wolf-eared hairpin.
"What are you doing! Put it on! When this mission is completed and the orcs send out their troops, you find a chance to sneak back. When will the orcs send troops this time?" The merchant immediately turned around and snatched the hairpin splitting hand, put it back on the soldier, and looked around, but fortunately, no one noticed what had just happened here.
"I don't know!" replied the soldier angrily, arranging his hairpin.
"What do you mean I don't know?"
"Well, at the end of next month, go to the Valley of Peace. The soldier replied helplessly.
"What?" the merchant was shocked.
"There are already eight legions assembled, and on the way over, there are five more legions being assembled, this time it seems to be a big move, and it is said that the wild boar clan is also involved, this is the route map of the march. The soldier replied in a whisper, pretending to be picking something up, and shoved an envelope through the gap in his seat to the front.
"No, I must report to China as soon as possible for such an important situation, take precautions, I'll go first, you can watch the show in a while, find a place to drink some wine and then go back, don't make people suspicious." ”
The merchant immediately took the envelope, put it in a very hidden pocket of his underwear, and gave an explanation, and then got up and calmly left.
"Don't worry, I'm here to have fun today. The soldier whispered as he waited until the merchant stood up and walked to his side.
......
Five days later, at the eastern gate of King Lane's capital, Derek rode in a luxurious carriage and prepared to set off.
The day after entering the palace, the appointment was issued, probably because of the tense situation at this time, and it is said that when the king announced the news at the royal council, no one objected, and even the military officials who came to deliver the letter looked at Count Ross with pity.
Along with this came the soldiers of the Valkyrie Legion, the soldiers of Her Royal Highness the Third Princess Jessica, who came to deliver money. Napoleon Cannon Derek had already made a lot, and he originally planned to sell it to the city defense corps when he returned to the territory, and simply handed it over to the third princess.
Anyway, if you have a better idea, you should destock.
Derek left all the Rose Workshop business to Zulu, and he packed all his bags into the space ring and left with Lina and Kaka.
"Master, I will miss your ......" Zulu, who came to see him off, wept silently, this was the first time since the birth of the little master that he had been separated from himself.
Zulu's family has served the Ross family for generations, Zulu's father stayed in the territory of the Ross family to continue to take care of the family affairs, and Zulu followed Derek's side into the royal capital, originally thought that he could always follow the little master, but he didn't expect to be separated today, Zulu said that his heart hurts.
"Did I send you the letter home?"
"No, I'm afraid that the idiots at the post office will lose the letter and delay the master's affairs, so I sent the most clever goblin to deliver the letter to the master. Zuluken pleaded.
On the first day of receiving the letter of appointment, Derek sent an order to the Legion through the military headquarters to move the Legion to the Rus' Territory, and asked Zulu to send a letter to his family to arrange a garrison to receive the Legion in the family domain.
According to the regulations, the duty of the nobles will automatically end after they are appointed, and they can finally go home.
"Zulu, the Rose Workshop is an important property of the Ross family, I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to someone else, only when it is handed over to you, can I go home with peace of mind, do you understand?"
"Nice hosts. Zulu said with his head down and a whimper.
......
"Master, I'll go with you!" Derek was calming his faithful butler when he heard the voice of the little princess.
"Are you alone?, does His Majesty know?" asked Derek, somewhat confused.
This shouldn't be, it stands to reason that the king sent himself to be a cannon fodder commander in a second-order army because he was angry, how could he send the princess to join him.
"I'm here to join the army, so I don't need any guards, my father sent me to train in the army, and I'm still the captain!" Wei'er's face flushed with two charming red clouds, and seeing that Derek didn't believe it, he handed over a letter of appointment.
"What, I'll send you another five-song bar?" Derek knew that this was true after a little inspection, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, and said perfunctorily.
"Let's go, Master, what are the five bars?" the little princess climbed into the carriage neatly, shouted at the coachman, and turned to ask Master.
"The five bars are a kind of military rank of the human legion in ancient times, the largest officer in the legion, who can govern the sky and the earth, and who wants to control whom......"
"Oh no! Her Royal Highness the little princess has also run away from home!" King Charles V was presiding over the royal council when a court maid suddenly burst in.
As for why the word "also" is used, it is probably because this palace maid has "also" served the four princesses before, right?
"What did you say?!" His Majesty was tired.
