By the time Walker, the Duke of Ella, and Wayne, the courtier, escorted Queen Agnes back to Entle, it was dawn.

Due to the long journey at night and the irresistible difficulties, the Duke of Ella, Walker, the courtier Wayne, and Queen Agnes all became quite weak. The black circles under his eyes and his pale face are like the protagonists of the strange legends that circulate in the north and south of Mount Ella.

The guards at the gates saw the returning duke and hurriedly asked the Entre men to open the closed gates.

In the early morning, there were already the people who were rushing to the morning market on the Entle, and when they saw the duke riding their horses on the road, they all pulled over and took off their hats and saluted the duke. Although there was nothing to be said about the duke riding by, it was early in the morning, and the duke on his horse looked tired, which attracted the attention of the lords. It's a rather strange thing for them.

The three horsemen soon arrived at the small castle of Entle, and the guards of the castle hurried to lead the horses for the three of them.

The guard's expressions towards Duke Walker and the spy manager Wayne were natural, but there was a slight hint of imperceptible hostility towards Queen Agnes, who was a female companion and a man in men's clothing. The horse Agnes rode was stamped with the insignia of the royal family, and Queen Agnes wore the civilian clothes of a knight of Rinston, a mark they hated to see.

"Fatten me the horse of Lord Baroness Eleanor!" Walker was tired, but his mind was clear, and he knew that the guards were hostile to the newcomer 'Baroness' from the bottom of their hearts.

"Yes, Your Highness." The guards hesitated for a moment before saluting Walker before leading the trio of horses away.

The three of them quickly walked into the small castle of Entre together. The first thing Walker saw was the steward who had been sent to Lindisfark Camp River. Walker knew that his steward had completed the errands he had assigned.

"My lord, General Frankenstein arrived yesterday evening. Seeing that you were not there, he returned to the General's Mansion in Entre to await your summons. The court steward who came forward saluted the Duke of Ella.

"Well, you're doing a good job. By the way, you'll have to go to the General's Mansion one more time. Let the old general Hugh Frankenstein come to me at once to the council chamber of the little castle. Besides, don't come to me for the rest of the unrelated courtiers today. I'm too tired and need a break. Walker, Duke of Ella, removed the iron glove and threw it on the long table in the parlor on the first floor of the castle.

"As you wish, my lord." The steward nodded to the duke, stepped aside, and turned away from the little castle herald.

"Walker, your guards always look at me strangely, as if they don't really like my clothes." Queen Agnes was keenly aware of the guards' strange gazes.

"The vast majority of the people in the Entre realm have no affection for or even hostility towards the tyrant of Parma, including his vassals. Aini. Walker who walked up the stairs naturally grabbed Queen Agnes's slender jade hand and whispered to Agnes: "Even if Entre is in the hinterland of the Dukedom of Ella, for the sake of safety, I hope you will remember your current identity - Your Excellency Eleanor, Baroness of Dongyi." ”

"Just don't call me Her Royal Highness." Agnes nodded, and walked side by side with Walker, Duke of Ella, until she stopped at a door in a room on the second floor of the castle.

"Your Excellency the Baroness. This is your room. Walker followed Agnes's words and motioned to the guards standing at the door, who straightened their backs and immediately stretched out their hands to push the door open, "This is Lord Eleanor, the baroness of Dongyi, my honored guest, you must take good care of it!" ”

"Yes! Your Highness! The guards saluted Duke Walker with a solemn expression.

"Then please rest well, Lord Eleanor. There is a bell at the head of the bed if needed. The Duke of Ella let go of Queen Agnes' hand and bowed gracefully in farewell. Turned and left in the direction of the council chamber.

Queen Agnes watched in silence at Duke Walker's figure, and it was not until Walker turned to the other side of the corridor that she gently closed the door.

Ella Duke Walker sat on the duke's throne in the council chamber, and the wave of sleepiness that hit him had to close his eyes to recuperate, but the moment he closed his eyes, all that appeared in front of him was her shadow. The gentle touch, the sound of the voice, had unconsciously occupied most of his thoughts. His mood couldn't be calm at all, and closing his eyes and recuperating undoubtedly added a few beautiful fantasy pictures.

He heard the ringing bells, saw the white gown and the flowers clustered around him, he heard the praise of Arcana, the prayer of the priest, and the admiring gaze of his subjects, and the delicate face under the white veil.

No one bothered him, Wayne was leaning against the wall and swaying and napping; The servants were not allowed to enter at will, as commanded by the ruler; The statue of the knight in the council chamber stood quietly with a halberd; The only sound that came from the top was the occasional sound or two from the top that resembled the sound of marbles falling to the ground.

Walker's legs were closed, and he felt a rush of restlessness that he had never felt before, an inexplicable swelling in his lower abdomen, a unique tightness that seemed to want to dig out of the crotch of his underwear. Again and again, he enjoyed the pleasure of the scene in his mind, and even laughed at the decadent Segal II on the throne. His thumb and forefinger rubbed against each other, as if they wanted to recreate the delicate skin that had just been touched, or to relieve the tension in his heartstrings.

"Knock knock!" Two knocks on the door outside the council chamber suddenly woke Walker from his fantasy, he embarrassedly lifted his pants that were not sagging, straightened the corners of his clothes, and stared at the brown eyes with a look of fear that he had never felt before, and after a moment of wandering, his former demeanor finally returned to its original position.

"Your Highness. General Hugh Frankenstein has accepted your summons to come to the audience. Outside the door was the voice of the steward.

"Hurry up, please!" Duke Ella Walker accidentally bit his tongue, and the painful stabbing made his mind clear up for a moment, only to realize that it was just a plump dream experienced in bony reality, "Come in!" ”

"The lord seems to have not slept all night, and it looks like he has gone through a long journey." Outside the door of the council chamber, the gray-haired general Hugh Frankenstein strode into the hall, he looked around at Duke Ella and Wayne, the head of the spy, the tiredness and poor spirit of the two could not escape his eagle-like sharp eyes, he stroked the duke's chest with one hand, bowed and stood in front of the duke's throne: "I wonder what is the important matter for the lord to summon me in such a hurry?" ”

"I need the cooperation of both of you. Entre is now in danger. Walker looked at Hugh Frankenstein and Wayne Landmark, who were seated, slowly got up from their thrones, and then walked down the steps, holding them down their shoulders, "I have dismissed those talkative nobles because I regard you two as my friends. I think that such a major event must be discussed in detail with two generals who understand military affairs, and it is the best choice at the moment. ”

"Your Highness, did you and Wayne not rest last night just to resolve the 'dangerous egg' matter? I want to hear about the process and the results. Otherwise, I won't be able to help you much. Hugh Frankenstein looked at the Duke and the Chief Spy.

"Old General, the Lord has rescued Her Royal Highness. Before this, the envoy of the royal city also specially sent a small ceremonial hand axe from Her Royal Highness the Queen. Wayne Landmark looked at Hugh Frankenstein beside him with a gloomy expression, and a hint of blush inadvertently climbed up Duke Walker's cheek: "In addition, there are a large number of monsters landing on the north shore of Santa Kana Lake. You sent the garrison there to call for an emergency. ”

"Rescued Her Royal Highness, which Highness the Queen? The queen of Segal II? Rescued from whom? Hugh Frankenstein was clearly more focused on the Duke rescuing the Queen. On the contrary, he was not surprised by the news of the arrival of the monster on the north shore of Lake Santa Cana.

"The Lord and I traced the ruins of a cave built by the nobles of Grimster near Cliff Mountain, and rescued Her Highness from thirty knights of honor. I killed 5 of them alone. Wayne Landmark flashed sideways, his hand constantly swinging his sword and slashing, "Our lord is even more heroic, he rode into the cave with his eyes, drew his ice sword and swung it like that, more than a dozen knights of honor were frozen into ice sculptures!" I was dumbfounded. Queen Agnes was also quite powerful, and a woman lifted her sword from the back and killed the knight of the honor guard who was about to shoot the lord with a crossbow. ”

"The battle is fierce enough." Hugh Frankenstein sarcastically mocked the somewhat smug Wayne Landmark, and then turned to Duke Ella's stern face: "Your Royal Highness, to be honest, I have great admiration for your bravery. I also see you as the pride of Entle, ah, the whole Dukedom of Ella. But you risk your life like this, and you're putting the entire Duke of Ella at risk! In the unlikely event that the two of you are captured, the Duchy of Ella will be left with only a dark future. ”

"However, the Lord has taken the risk, but he has rescued an elegant Queen, and has also gained a key figure who will allow us to resolve our grievances with the people of Karkhand. Queen Agnes was the beloved daughter of Heller, Earl of Karkhand. Wayne's eyebrows fluttered, and he swept away the tiredness on his face, "All this must be kept secret." The queen is now called Baroness Eleanor, Winter. ”

"I finally know why you were used by Your Highness as a spy chief instead of a military commander in place of me. Lord Wayne. You always like to put Your Highness in danger. Hugh Frankenstein darkened his old face, "But Lord Wayne is so fond of being in danger, presumably His Highness has already figured out where you should go to make the most of your 'specialty'." We are now facing two wars, and Segal-Saxon is about to raise an army; An army of monsters ashore on the northern shore of Lake Santa Kana is splitting the Dukedom of Ella in two. Fortunately, Yafen has always been friendly with the Ain Dynasty in Shanyan Pass, otherwise it would have been a real trouble. I reckon Lord Wayne will be appointed by His Highness to command the garrison there on the northern shore of Santa Cana Lake against the monatics and maniacs. Because you're a dangerous lunatic. Lucky enough, though. ”

"I finally know why Your Excellency has been a centurion under the Red Boar." Wayne patted Hugh Frankenstein on the back, and the two laughed.

"Exactly. The old general is really a capable man. It's not humble at all! No wonder even the priest of Entre said that the old stubborn donkey was far away from the altar of Arcana, away from the faith of Arcana. Just because of the old general, you were born with the virtue of not being treated well by the red boar. At last, the Duke of Ella couldn't help but laugh with them.

The joyful atmosphere was dissipated and solemn. Even in the near future, Walker, the Duke of Ella, knew that a cloud of gloom would hang over Entle, but when Walker looked at his two right-hand men, he felt a little relieved.

"Parma has poisonous snakes that bite people. I have two powerful generals in my court. And they are all veteran gamblers who like to win in the face of danger. One of you has staked your chips on my sword, and the other on my red-faced brother and the royal family of Monta in the mountain rock pass. However, there is one other thing that I am most afraid about is what kind of tricks the well-informed Spiket will use against us. This guy is like a snake and scorpion, and the way he thinks is also to go off the rails, and he will do everything to achieve his ulterior goals. The matter of the queen is a stain on honor that he has imposed on me. The next step for that guy must be to raise an invasion. Therefore, I recruited the old general to defend against the imminent invasion of the kingdom of Rinston. Walker shifted gears and cut straight to the point.

"In my opinion, His Highness is most worried than His Excellency Earl Henjason, who threw himself into our arms not long ago. He joined to protect his title from being stripped of by the ambitious Segal II. Hugh Frankenstein's accurate judgment of the situation amazed Duke Walker of Ella, and even Wayne Landmark admired the old general's remarks, and Wayne Landmark sent agents to investigate the true intentions of White Town to join the Duchy of Ella, which coincided with the old general's analysis. He couldn't help but give Hugh Frankenstein a thumbs up.
