At first, the Guardians were puzzled by Miss Freya's arrival at the training grounds, but after she defeated a strong squad leader with a few swords, the entire Escort Team had a new perspective on her.

And because of its beautiful figure and excellent swordsmanship, it gradually got the nickname of 'Grimm Flower'.

On the field, the strange guard seized an opportunity and slashed directly at the gap in Damsting.

'Boom! ’

With the sound of wooden swords colliding, Darmsteen fired his sword with the same swift reaction speed, and then his empty left hand reached out violently in a calm gaze, grabbing the guards who were still too late to withdraw their swords in inertia.

I saw that his already thick arm instantly swelled again, and the huge force directly lifted the escort who was equal to him, and then slammed it into the ground.

'Bang! ’

A loud noise mixed with thick smoke and dust dispersed, and the figure of the guard** in the middle could be faintly seen.

The people who were still watching the excitement around applauded at this time, obviously this was not the first time they had seen this scene.

The battle is over, and the results are clearly out.

Freya didn't look at it anymore, and turned around and walked back along the way back, but her mind was still thinking about the scene just now.

Darmsteen, the vice-captain who was single-handedly pulled out by Howard, has the strength to the extreme close to the knight level, and his fighting style was also taught by Howard, rough and shrewd.

As she walked along the road, Freya pondered the competition between the two, and if she were to replace her place with the guard, Freya found that with her ability, although she could not say that she could defeat Damstin completely, at least not as badly as the guard.

Moreover, if the competition is not in an open field, but in a place with complex terrain, then it is possible to slowly grind him to death...

However, she also learned something special from the battle between the two, which needs to be slowly integrated into her swordsmanship.

Just as Freya was thinking about perfecting her swordsmanship, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

On the avenue leading to the outside of the castle, the baron rode on a white steed in silver armor and carried a pure black greatsword on his back. Behind him was a group of cavalrymen in half-armored armor and three huge carriages covered with gray linen.

The baron's face was gloomy, and the thick smell of blood made Freya, who was standing in the distance, frown slightly.

Soon after, the baron and the convoy arrived at the castle.

Everyone turned over and dismounted, and at the baron's command, the sackcloth on the carriage behind was lifted, and dozens of large wooden boxes were exposed to everyone's sight, and then they were carried into the castle one by one by the cavalry.

Freya was in a trance when she saw the box, because she saw a bright golden yellow in the gap between the boxes.

"It's gold!" Freya was stunned.

These are ten large wooden boxes, and it is not difficult to guess their origin.

"Viscount Berta actually spit out ten boxes of gold while abolishing his parents and children... What does that mean? Freya, who didn't know what was going on, guessed.

But she couldn't ask about these things, and she didn't think much about asking them.

Now her main thing is to better improve her swordsmanship and mind, and it is not so important for other miscellaneous things, after all, as long as there is power in this world, there is everything.

It's still a simple bedroom, just a little more at her desk.

A sheathed cross sword and a dagger-like short sword that weighs only about thirty centimeters.

This is something that she has recently summarized and studied based on her previous experience and the swordsmanship she has seen in the training place, and it belongs only to her.

Cross swords are used in frontal combat, while short swords are hidden in the shadows for sneak attacks.

This kind of unconventional thing has a great effect in Freya's simulation, combined with the second stage of the stabbing sword, it unexpectedly gives fatal damage, which makes people unguardable, even if the knight level is not careful, I am afraid that he will be hit.

It's just that this way of fighting is still only in the experimental stage, and Freya is not very skilled in using it, so she needs to practice more.

After picking up the cross sword and short sword and practicing briefly in the bedroom, I received a dinner notice from the maid.

The dinner, which was supposed to be full, was only filled with a few people, and the Baron and Howard, as well as a few of the high-ranking members of the Guard, who were often present, were not there.

After glancing around, Freya sat down directly, frowned, picked up a bowl of thick white fish soup and took a gentle suck, looking at the empty position.

"Aunt Mary, where has my father gone?" Freya asked directly to Mary, who was standing behind her.

"It seems that something is going on at the iron mines, and Lord Baron and Howard went out before dinner."

"Oh." Freya nodded. "By the way, do you know what's going on?"

"This... I don't know, but Darmsteen should know about it, and you can ask him later," Mary said respectfully.

Mary was only in charge of all the chores in the castle, so she wasn't very clear about something special.

"yes, got it." Freya nodded, knowing something about what she had seen in the training ground.

After dinner, Freya went straight to the castle's library.

Most of the books in it had been turned over by her, but some of them had not been touched by her.

Take out the key to open the lock and use the candle in your hand to light the oil lamp in the room.

Suddenly, the whole dark room lit up.

Freya walked down the corridor between the bookshelves to the last one and expertly pulled out a thin booklet.

By the light of the fire, she slowly spread out the booklet in her hand, and it was a folded map, and the shape was actually a map of the area around Grimm's territory.

Freya sat down on the ground and began to look through it.

Following her fingers, she quickly found out the location of the iron ore.

"Sure enough," Freya muttered.

The location shown in the area map is the area between the Grimm Territory and the Berta Territory, near the forest border, at the corner of the two territories.

Combined with the usual, the iron mine is the place where the most things happen every year, and if there is anything going on in the Grimm territory, it will definitely be the iron mine that will cause an accident.

"Berta would actually buy this seemingly chaotic iron ore at a great price..."Freya frowned slightly, and in a trance she seemed to have caught a clue, but she immediately shook her head, feeling a little unrealistic.

"That's treason—" Her blue eyes flashed uncertainly, and she slowly restored the map in her hand and put it back.

In this world, treason is the biggest sin, there is no one, even if someone succeeds in treason, then most of them will not end well, after all, betrayal is an extremely shameful thing, it is the same everywhere.

But if a little viscount wants to commit treason, it is impossible to think no matter how he thinks.

Still, Freya kept this bold guess in mind.
