Act IX. Reward

The charcoal burned quietly, with a crackling sound from time to time, the sound of the burned black charcoal collapsing because it could not support its weight, the flame brought light and warmth, and the bleak scene outside the window contrasted with the peace of the room, making people want to curl up in this room, unwilling to step out of the door.

However, contrary to the warm temperature, the air that permeated the crowd was not peaceful at all.

"So, after the Misty Forest fought and won the Eastern Front Legion of Wendland, you didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, but directly withdrew from the forest?"

Prince Leotis took a sip of a glass of red wine, its jewel-like fullness and deep color revealing its quality, and then asked Verachiel faintly.

"Our military strength is weaker than Wendland, and it is all up to strategy to win, if we choose to pursue in the face of the defeated Wendland, we will put ourselves in a disadvantageous situation, after all, the Mordred Plateau is already full of Wendland's rangers, and if we are surrounded by then, it will be more than worth the loss."

Verahill didn't look back at Prince Leotis's gaze, and in the face of his questioning question, Verahill only replied slowly in a flat tone.

"I see, when I first heard the news, I was still thinking, General Strass shouldn't be such a timid person, I didn't expect such consideration."

Prince Leotis didn't dig too deep, he didn't get much information, so it was normal to have the illusion that Astel had a great advantage in the Misty Forest.

"So, what about the Advanced Legends?"

After only asking a little about the battle in the Misty Forest, Prince Leotis seemed to be no longer concerned about the war, and began to ask about Verahir's rise to legend.

Verahir seemed to be a little dissatisfied, but she was facing both the prince of the royal family of Astre and the lord of the territory, so she could only satisfy Prince Leotis's curiosity and give a general account of the crusade against the dragon of the fog, Arnolrond.

"Wait, I seem to have heard a lot of Mr. Ian Gray in your description, General Strass, is that the one in front of you?"

Prince Leotis interrupted Verahirl's next words when Verahir's speech was over, and asked Verahir.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince."

Vera Hill wasn't dissatisfied, she just glanced at Shiloh and fell silent.

"I originally thought that only silver-rank and gold-rank powerhouses could assist General Strass in the battle, but I didn't expect that Mr. Ian Gray, as a bronze rank, could also play a role in the front-line battle, which really opened my eyes."

Prince Leotis said, although the tone of his voice seemed to disagree with Shiloh's actual contribution, and it was only a boast of Verahir, but it was still a compliment.

"Thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince's praise, I'm just lucky."

I didn't expect His Royal Highness the prince to be so proud, Shiloh secretly complained in his heart, but he still looked panicked on the surface.

"Luck is also a part of strength, Mr. Ian Gray, I heard that you have protected my sister along the way, I really don't know what kind of gift to use to thank you for your efforts."

Prince Leotis, not knowing whether he was joking or if he meant it, glanced at Shiloh as if he was thinking about something.

"In times of peace, I would be willing to give you one of the most fertile fields and an estate in the Kainz Territory, but in this time I am afraid these are of little use, and I am embarrassed to leave you in this land as I like you so much."

"Your Highness has won the prize, I just did what an Asterian should do."

Shiloh felt even more strange in his heart, he felt more and more that the prince Leotis in front of him was full of willfulness, the opposite of the general princess Elifers, but he also understood when he thought that the education they had received since childhood was very different.

Princess Elyfils was sent to the Terestan Fortress since she was a child, and was taught by Archmage Elwin, which is different from the general aristocratic education, Archmage Elwin teaches more about the customs and customs that are closely related to this world, similar to what ordinary teenagers and girls learn in church schools or royal colleges, which also makes Princess Eliefils more approachable.

As for Prince Leotis, it is clear that he received an elite royal education and is proficient in all aspects of high society, but he does not pay much attention to human feelings, after all, maintaining noble self-esteem is what a member of the royal family should have, and humility and humility are not required by these educations.

"I can't say that, in this day and age, not everyone knows exactly what they have to do and where they should be, well, I've decided to reward you well, Shiloh. Ian Gray. ā€

Prince Leotis drank the wine from his glass, and then summoned the guards who had been standing beside him.

"Hecrates, go find someone in the storehouse and bring 'that'."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hicrates walked briskly to the door, whispered a few words to the squire who was standing there, and returned to the position less than three yards behind Prince Leotis.

It turned out that the butler-like guard was called Hicrates, and Shiloh thought that he had no memory of this name, and it stands to reason that he should have heard of people who participated in this war above the middle rank of silver, but after carefully searching his memory, he found that he did not have any impressions related to this person.

However, Shiloh did not stay in Cainzburg for long in his previous life, and did not have the opportunity to contact Prince Leotis, nor did he fight with him during the war, and it seems quite normal that he had not heard of a close guard.

While Shiloh was thinking to himself, the attendant who had been sent to fetch his things returned to the chamber.

It was a satin-wrapped, square thing.

It seemed to be effortless to hold it, and the squire slowly walked over to Prince Leotis, carefully placed it on the table, and then quickly turned back to its original position, apparently after years of training.

"This is one of the things left by the previous owner of Kainzburg, that is, my uncle, but there is a lack of professional appraisers in this land, so I don't have a clue other than knowing that this is a magic prop, I think Mr. Ian Gray is well-informed, and may know a thing or two."

Prince Leotis opened the silk that encased it, and Shiloh saw that it was a small box of pine.

"Of course, if you don't know, it doesn't matter, just keep it by your side as an ornament, and it should be my gratitude."

The box was opened, but the contents made Shiloh almost scream. (To be continued.) )
