Chapter 156: Benefits
"They are not the ones who can condemn me. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Having said that, Oss's heart is not as calm and breezy as it seems. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone back to bed on his back in front of a dozen or so people.
"I think it's good now, the alliance doesn't need you to be the commander, and you don't have to sleep for seventy days! Heiko and I didn't want to see this happen again, and Natalie didn't want to be scared every day! Baron Rivendell sat on the edge of the bed, speaking in a somewhat heavy tone.
Oss's heart trembled suddenly, and he suddenly remembered his mother's tired and almost faint face when he rescued his mother, and also remembered his father's broken arm and would rather die than escape.
Baron Rivendell helped Oss to his feet, and Lady Annastari took out the Terran costume that had been prepared from the space package and handed it over.
As Oss was dressing, Baron Rivendell sighed heavily, patted his godson on the shoulder and persuaded, "No one will understand you, Os, what the alliance needs is revenge, to recover a large area of land in the south, but also to get captives and labor!" What you do, in the end, even your comrades-in-arms will regard you as an enemy! β
When Baron Rivendell said this, his own eyes, as well as those of the people present, including Madame Annastari, the archmage Kel'thugad, the commander of the Eastern Front, Alexandros Mograini, the commander of the Eastern Front, Alfred Abydis, the paladin Jolod Maes, the paladin John Ezra, and so on, all looked at Onexia, who had been sitting on the side and looking at Oss since he entered the house.
Naturally, Oss's perception was extremely keen, and his eyes changed so consistently, that he wondered: "What is going on?" Why are you all looking at O'...... Katrana? β
Baron Rivendell knew the true identity of Count Presto, and he had heard Oss say it. Therefore, when he came here, he found that there was a man named Katlana Presto, and he immediately became vigilant, and hurriedly called his friend Kel'thugad, who was building a magic tower for Blackwood Cliff.
In the face of Oss's inquiry, all the Terrans present did not answer, and their status was not suitable.
"Maybe it's the Father...... Kiss. It was Onexia herself, who explained to Oss, "It could also be ...... The elder brother and the younger brother make their own claims, and they are the first to question you and the first to demand that you be judged. β
Seeing that Onexia took the initiative to speak, Baron Rivendell added: "And the Barov family, who regard you as enemies in the matter of your engagement to His Royal Highness Deliana. A group of nobles and lords, led by their two families, were the first to condemn you for treason, and gained the support of most of the nobles and lords of the kingdoms. β
"Huh." Oss laughed, and when he heard that it was the handwriting of His Majesty the Black Dragon King, he didn't suppress it, "I see, I understand." But it had nothing to do with Catlana, I took her away from Count Presto. β
Whether it has anything to do with Catlana Presto or not, everyone didn't care at first. But when Oss said that Katrana was taken away by him from Count Presto, and that His Royal Highness Deliana was also here, everyone immediately looked at each other, and at the same time ignited the fire of gossip, speculating whether the reason why Count Presto targeted Osto was because his daughter was abducted......
Only Baron Rivendell knew some of the truth, but he couldn't say anything about it.
At this time, Deliana entered the room with a dinner plate in her own hand, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became strange.
"Thank you." Oss took the plate with two glances from Chromie and Onexia, didn't dare to talk to Deliana more, and changed the topic and focus, "Have you eaten?" What time is it outside? β
"Not long after noon, Os, don't worry about us, eat it while it's hot, this is the wish of Her Royal Highness the Princess." Kel'thugad said.
Oss looked at Kel'thugad, he didn't know the violet-robed archmage, and he didn't quite understand why the archmage was so close to him. Baron Rivendell, on the other hand, laughed and groaned, without speaking or introducing himself.
Kel'thugad looked at Os's puzzled gaze, shook his robe in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile: "The last time we met, you were not yet ten years old, and it seems that you really don't know me." β
"When he came back from outside, even I called him Godfather. And the last time you saw Oss, he was four years old, not less than ten years old, and he didn't know you as he should. Baron Rivendell finally spoke.
Oss had already thought that the man in front of him, who was almost middle-aged, was the same as the godfather, dressed and behaved meticulously, his hair seemed to be waxed, and he was more serious than a short man with a beard: "You are Kel'thugad...... Uncle? β
The wry smile on Kel'thugad's face turned into a smile, and he performed a standard mage salute: "It's a little late to meet again after thirteen years, but I still have to say that it's great that you can return safely!" β
"Thank you, uncle." Oss returned a noble salute.
Kel'thugad reached out and patted Oss on the shoulder. And Oss looked at Kel'thugad's outstretched hand, his eyes narrowed, and his heart tightened, but finally he relaxed, allowing Kelthugad to pat himself on the shoulder.
"It's amazing, it's amazing, you're only seventeen, and I'm really impressed. Until now, I still can't connect the stereotypical boy taught by Ilara in my memory with the demigod powerhouse. Patting Oss on the shoulder, Kel'thugad sighed, and at the same time relieved. As Baron Rivendell said, when Oss was young, he didn't hold him less!
"You're overrated, uncle, I haven't reached the demigod realm yet, I'm far behind." Oss's answer was one-size-fitting, not too intimate and not deliberately keeping a distance.
As a great magician, Kel'thugad's mental power and perception are beyond ordinary people, and he is aware of Oss's previous squinting movements and the sense of alienation he shows. However, he didn't think much about it, he just thought that Oss hadn't been in contact with him for too long, and it was inevitable that he would not fit in.
Next, while eating, Oss asked everyone present about the information on the southern front. Seventy days of dormancy is enough for a lot of things to happen, a lot of changes.
After Oss finished eating, Deliana did not call the servants, but took the initiative to pack up the dishes and take them out. Not only did she not put herself in the position of a princess, but she also did not show the slightest arrogance.
Oss followed Deliana, who was leaving, for a moment, and then asked Chromie, "What about the second brother?" β
"I rushed back to the south with the trade group, and he left a sentence, 'Fourth brother, I believe in you, and you will not rashly counterattack Grimbaatar'!" Chromie said it succinctly, there were a bit of mortals present, and she didn't want to be the center of attention.
Oss nodded, sad. Involved in this war, everyone can't help themselves.
After a while, Oss straightened his mind and asked again, "So, Sandros, it is precisely because the Silvermoon Council has proposed to sanction me that Your Majesty and Your Majesty Aiden, as well as most of the nobles and lords, have ignored this matter?" β
Alexandros pointed to the door and replied, "If you go out and take a look, you will understand that Your Majesty will not allow you to be tried in public under any circumstances." β
Taking advantage of Deliana's absence, Baron Rivendell quipped: "Haha, my in-laws are now full of confidence!" Whoever dares to condemn his demigod son-in-law, he will dare to fight with whomever he wants! Otherwise, why do you think Her Royal Highness the princess would come here with the royal elite guards? β
Oss's heart sank, he didn't want His Majesty Aiden to have a conflict with Count Presto and the Black Dragon King, it would definitely not end well.
On the other hand, Aiden Pirenod's transformation also made Oss sincerely sigh that the so-called butterfly effect is really far-reaching!
Because of this war, the orcs did not conquer the northern human kingdoms again, and Aiden naturally would not surrender to the orcs again; And with a strong son-in-law, Aiden seems to have undergone some changes in his cautious, cheap but forward-looking character!
After thinking about it, Oss took the matter of his father-in-law to heart, and was ready to find an opportunity to remind his father-in-law through Deliana that he should not provoke Count Presto. And His Majesty the Black Dragon King has made himself ruined in the Terrans and the Alliance through conspiracy this time, but he is also ready for the second game and is waiting for the Black Dragon King in Grimbaatar!
After deciding on his thoughts and plans for the future, Oss walked out of the room with the others, but he was stunned at the door. I saw that on the land in front of him, the former Taquilin, which originally belonged to the territory of Queldore, had actually appeared in the prototype of a Terran-style town!
"This ...... Isn't Your Majesty afraid that His Majesty Anastarian will tear up the agreement? Oss was stunned for a moment and asked.
Alexandros smiled, pointed to the north and replied, "Half and half, this new town, Lordaeron and Quel'Salas each have half each. In this war, more than sixty percent of Lordaeron's troops were drawn and led by Sir Lothar himself to the southern front, and the elves collapsed at the touch of a button, almost causing Lordaeron to recover! β
"The Elven King can't refute the fact of defeat, and therefore can't refute the Alliance's decision!" Alfred was very excited, in a sense, the kingdom of Lordaeron has expanded its territory! And this time, the East Dalongmir Woodland, which directly participated in the war, has obviously become the biggest hero and the biggest beneficiary!
Oss was silent for a moment, not delving into the question. For example, the internal contradictions of the alliance, the internal disputes of the Terrans, and even the reputation of treason that he is carrying at the moment, he really has no idea.
It's a pity that Oss doesn't care, and some people care about these things, such as Baron Rivendell: "After all, Os, it's all your credit!" Therefore, although Your Majesty has ostensibly removed you from your office, he will give you knighthoods, decorations, and ribbons! How could Your Majesty give up a strong man like you! And the nobles and lords who are going to condemn you, huh! Count Presto is not enough, what is the leading Barov family! Wait and see, with me cooperating with His Majesty Aiden, the Barov family who doesn't listen to tunes and don't listen to Xuan, hum, hum! β
"......" Oss did not answer, muttered, and did not discourage the godfather from standing up for himself. At this point, everything about him is no longer his own business.
As for Baron Rivendell's words, "Count Presto, it's okay", if the godfather really wants to deal with His Majesty the Black Dragon King, Oss will probably stop it immediately. While the godfather chose to target the Barov family first, Oss planned to find out about the Mares brothers and learn more about the family.
