Chapter Seventy-Four: Dominion and the Return Storm!

"The right to rule is unique to the ruler, and it is the ruler's highest jurisdiction over his own ruling field, well, putting aside these literal interpretations, I think the emergence of the right to rule in the system means that I can finally make my voice heard in this world!"

- Leo's Diary

After sending off the nobles, Leo still spent some time dealing with the follow-up matters of White Moon City, first assigning a regiment of champion swordsmen to be responsible for the defense of the city, and considering that he currently has no talents in his hands, he can only temporarily select an old man with a good reputation from the middle-class families in White Moon City to temporarily take charge of people's livelihood.

Of course, his authority is limited to similar to that in the game, which can only coordinate and settle disputes between residents, etc., and the specific details of urban development must be agreed by Leo himself.

At the same time, in order to deal with the streets of houses damaged by the war, Leo paid a lot of money on these chores, and they will devote themselves entirely to the restoration work under the supervision of the residents.

For the first time, Leo completed these follow-up tasks without the help of the system, but fortunately, the civilians in this world were too easy to satisfy, and the overall situation was quite smooth.

After these were completed, he, Lester and Tron accepted the allegiance of the remaining 100 knights, and felt the weakness of their allies, and at Leo's suggestion, the two received 20 and 12 knights respectively.

Eventually, for the first time, Leo had 70 knights from this world, each of whom was proficient in the use of at least a few weapons, and possessed skilled combat skills and superb riding skills, except for the temporary lack of confidence in terms of loyalty, the rest was extremely satisfying.

After finishing these chores, Leo refused the farewell ceremony of the temporary mayor, and in a hurry to go home, he left White Moon City quietly in the early morning with a much smaller army than when he came......

The journey back was free of urgency and trouble, and the journey north went smoothly, and a few days later Lord Tron left the party and returned to the territory, and then arrived at Nuremberg, the Viscount of Leicester, where Leo declined the invitation to a banquet and a rest.

After asking Evely to take care of the rescued girl Vivien, and retrieve Reinhardt's ashes, the army is no longer dragged down by other miscellaneous cards, and rushes towards Stormwind City faster......

***********************

The war and other trivialities, as well as the wear and tear of the road, had made it clear that time had crept to the end of summer when the majestic outline of Stormwind was once again visible, and the horses' hooves passed through the last sparse woodland, and the local soldiers who followed behind them, despite the morning dew, raised their weapons and cheered at the city that was close at hand.

Leo and the others watched all this with smiles, even the old-fashioned Finn did not interrupt the celebration of the soldiers, no matter what the era, it feels so happy to go home, not to mention that these people have gone through the test of blood and fire, which is the reward they deserve.

At the gate of the city, Anthony, who got the news, led a team of brightly armored soldiers, who had already listed the welcome formation, and watched his lord's team slowly approach, and Anthony hit the horse to meet him

"Good day, my lord, hard work, welcome home!"

After a brief greeting, several people looked at each other and smiled, and Leo pulled the reins hard, and the mount stood up, shouting "Let's go home!" ”

At the gates of the city, Leo and the soldiers had to experience another commotion, a large number of merchants who stayed in Stormwind City rushed to offer their praises to the lords and generals, and the families of the soldiers nervously identified whether their relatives were safe......

……

Leo, who finally returned to his mansion, changed into a refreshing silk dress with the help of the servants, and after the butler who asked for instructions on the affairs of the evening banquet left, he walked to Anthony, who bowed his head and held the ashes of his comrades, patted his arm and sighed

"We're all miserable, my friend, no one wants this to happen, and I'm sorry for that!"

"I understand my lord, Reinhardt was a good boy, Keith told me, he defended his honor by dying to save others, he ......"

"No, don't tell me any more noble sacrifices!" Leo suddenly grabbed Anthony's collar and looked into the other party's eyes seriously and said word by word

"Don't tell me this again, it seems to me that when a man dies, he loses everything, and no crowning of honor can make us, let us now only hold this young man in his hands get back on his feet, I respect the virtues of your knights, and I understand the pride that belongs to you......"

"But, my regimental commander, I hope to ...... in later battles Damn, I just want you all to live well, this kind of bullshit is enough for me once, I don't want to put the three of you in my hands one day and sing the praises of your virtues, understand? Leo's eyes were red and he pointed to the urn in Anthony's hand.

Smiling at his lord in front of him, Anthony could feel the sincerity of the other party, gently pulled Leo's hand, and nodded, "I understand, sir, please forgive me for having to retire first for the time being......"

After venting, Leo waved his hand helplessly, looking at the back of Anthony who turned around respectfully and walked away, he knew that he had not convinced himself at all that the deputy commander, although he had not spoken much, but it gave people a sense of stability as a rock, which was also the reason why Leo could rest assured that the city would be guarded by him on both expeditions.

Just after being quiet for a while, the familiar voice of the system suddenly sounded in Leo's head, "Ding!" Friendly reminder to the host, due to the war caused by the change of the rule of the Northern Territory, please check the data information in time, do you want to check it now? ”

"Huh?" Leo, who rarely heard the system's active prompts, suddenly became energetic, "Check, of course check"

The system was as efficient as ever, and the familiar interface was projected directly into Leo's mind

"The right to rule, hahahaha, there is more right to rule!" His master laughed wildly, so that the old butler outside, who was leading the servants to prepare the dinner, couldn't help but shake his head.

In the room, it took a long time for Leo to sober up from his ecstasy, and all else aside, the appearance of dominance alone was worth the price of this war, which meant that the system had recognized his actual rule over the northern realm, and that his means of co-opting the nobles had been effective.

What is the continent of Nice? What the Isos Empire, whether they admit it or not is not as important as the system's recognition, which shows that Leo can already make his voice heard in this world, although it is still very weak, but with the passage of time, sooner or later it will become an existence that people must pay attention to......
