Act 142 The Envoy from the Grey Mountain

The reception ceremony at the Royal Frontier was very brief, and soon attention turned to the return of the fleet, which had been more than two months since the departure of Valhalla, and for the new residents of Valhalla, they had only heard the name of the fleet, and in all seriousness it was the first time they had seen the fleet with their own eyes.

Although the ships entering the harbor at this moment were not the whole picture of the fleet, for the fleet had already been divided into three by order of Her Royal Highness the Princess when it passed through Sifah, sending a patrol fleet to continue to escort the Eruin envoys, while another detachment of three third-class cruisers headed to the coast of Laban, north of Karasu, to block the mountain walkway, in order to prevent the undead from once again playing the trick of raiding the rear of Lantoniland and Vieiro in the last war.

And today, only less than half of the fleet that is considered a behemoth in the whole of Eruin and even south of Cruz is less than half.

Even so, the enthusiasm could not be dampened, and word soon spread, and as the new residents of Valhalla ran out of their homes and saw silver spots of light descending from the clouds—most of them small gunboats, and some transports—they couldn't help but let out a flurry of whistles and cheers.

The townspeople even took off their hats and threw them far away towards the heavenly fleet, as if this was the only way to express the excitement in their hearts.

After all, this is the fleet that belongs to the Toniger people, and it is also the fleet that belongs to the fir realm, and it belongs to the fleet of their lords. Although they were 'bought' by Brando from the Buga.

But what does it matter?

Who doesn't know that those artisan wizards with eyes above the top are not just any nobles who can have a relationship with them. At least the fir lords are deeply convinced that their lord is a descendant of the Highland Knights, and that is why the Artisan Wizards can look up to them.

This is evidenced by Lord Charles, who followed their lord, and was a dignified archmage, and didn't he also build a mage tower on the lord's territory?

Sanders is an emissary from the Grey Mountains, and although the Grey Hills family was on the northern side during the last war, this does not change the fact that this family is historically closer to the Corcova royal family. It's just that the Earl of Grey Mountain has always been at odds with the royal party, so when Lee Woods, Macaro and others are in power, he has to think more about his position in the south and the interests of his family.

But when Her Royal Highness the eldest princess showed disagreement with the royal party. The envoys from the Grey Mountains immediately traveled south from Vlada Pest to Tonigel.

Of course, only those who know the inside story will understand that the more important reason for this was after the start of the Second War of the Black Roses. Levin. O'Nesen. The ongoing rapprochement between Sifah and Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Three months ago. Despite the opposition of his mother, Empress Anna, the current head of the Sifah family, he insisted on liberating the noble council in the north, which caused the Northern Alliance formed since the Ampessel War to collapse in an instant.

He then defeated a small rebellion of the nobles from Swallowburg, Tuvalo, and Balta, as well as the Thorny Wolves, and completely wiped out the north, but the first thing he did after that was not to raise troops south, but to send a coalition of nobles under the command of Nicholas to support the war between the Corkova family and Mardara.

After a few days of silence for Princess Griffyne, she reopened the Freeport of Ampesel to the north, releasing her side of goodwill.

Nowadays in some areas north of Ampesel. There is a palpable sense that the situation is easing day by day, in contrast to the growing tension of the war in the south, from Jean Denel to Manover.

It was under these circumstances that Sanders arrived in Toniger.

He knew that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess had a good relationship with his cousin when she was young. Later, because of Empress Anna, the two families gradually drifted apart, and now they are showing signs of renewing this relationship, which may represent a reconciling between the Korkova family and the Sifah family.

This is even more important to Eruin than the current war.

It's like he is clearly representing the Earl of Grey Mountain, but in fact it is Levin. O'Nesen. His Royal Highness Sifah's envoy, but although the Toniger people were quite friendly, Her Royal Highness the princess didn't seem to have any intention of receiving him for the time being.

The death of His Majesty Obergu left a deep scar between the two families, after all, it is not a little time to repair.

Sanders rented a room on the second floor of the Mermaid Inn in the city, and although the ubiquitous spirits of the city had arranged a place for him to live in the upper districts, he still preferred to wander around the lower districts, which were luxurious and refined and in line with the aesthetics of the aristocracy, but there were too few people to have a trace of life.

Fortunately, the people of Tony did not restrict his freedom, so he moved out and settled in this place before he was received by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and most of the others knew about it, but no one cared about him.

Sanders was happy to be idle, he knew that his mission was not an overnight mission, and in fact he was even more curious about the fortress, he had traveled to various places in Eruin in the previous years, and of course he had visited the wild land of Tonigal, but he had never heard of such a giant 'tree' here.

He had heard that the tree had been brought back from the Ring of Trade Winds by the lord, and Sanders had heard of the lord's legendary experience, but unfortunately he had not been able to meet him.

While there was a thunderous roar outside, Sanders and his attendant were looking out of the second-floor window, a hillbilly from the Batar area, who had little knowledge and had no other advantages than complaining about Toniger's hot climate and finding someone to gamble with.

Sanders also took a fancy to this man because the latter was quite honest and obedient, and he didn't know this, which was also a merit at some times.

Now the guy was so frightened that he almost fell off the windowsill, and said loudly to his master: "Oh my God, sir, these ships are flying in the sky!" ”

Naturally, Sanders would not have seen a ship flying in the sky, in fact, he had seen the windship warships of the Eruin royal family in Yanirasu, and he had also seen the local fleet of the empire in the north of Anzeruta, but they were not as good as the current scene.

His eyes reflected the scenery from the canopy, and his heart was full of mixed emotions, just a fleet belonging to the Eruin, who had just returned from the Empire, where it and its masters had done many other things that the Eruin could never have imagined in their lifetimes.

Although there were some praises and disparages among the nobility about Brando's trip to the Empire, there was a chorus of praise among the lower classes, especially in places like Tonigel and Jean Denel.

Some claim that this lord is the best envoy head of Eruin over the years, and some even compare him to his grandfather sixty years ago, and even Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who is discerning, has gained a lot of fame because of this, and there are already many rumors about knights and princesses outside.

But this fleet is just too strong.

It's suffocatingly powerful.

As Levin. O'Nesen. Sifah's envoy, the blind highness, had a clear idea in his heart, and the other party repeatedly told him that he must find a way to win over this lord, or at least win the favor of the other party.

He stared blankly at the floating points of light above the clouds, silently thinking in his heart that in the era when such a powerful man was born, he did not know whether it would be a blessing or a curse for the small country of Eruin.

Is it the imitator of the first monarch Ek, or the next Archduke of Enlek?

……

Back in the upper part of Valhalla, Brando's wooded palace reserved for the royal family, in fact, Her Royal Highness, the princess, and when the maid turned around and 'clicked' the door shut, Princess Griffiin's stern and indifferent image was finally relieved, and she turned around and carefully examined her only brother up and down.

"Are you really not hurt, Haruzer?"

"Yes, it's all the teacher's work, but he-"

"Great, Haruzer, great, you're finally back......"

Haruzer opened his mouth wide and looked at his sister blankly, and even the second half of his sentence was blocked by his sister's choked voice.

Since he grew up so big, he had never seen the other party look so out of shape.

Griffiin put his arms around his short, thin shoulders, hung his head, and wept quietly, tears falling uncontrollably, dripping down the thick carpet to form beautiful crystal beads.

"Sister...... Sister ......" Haruzer panicked.

"I ...... I'm fine, Haruzer, I'm just too scared. Griffiin hurriedly raised her head, she took a breath and regrouped her near-collapse emotions, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes and cheeks with the back of her hand: "You are right, all this is the work of the Prince, and we will definitely find him." ”

"Sister, ...... you call the teacher?"

"Haruzer, O'Nesen has written to me."

"Brother Levin?" Haruzer reacted instantly, equating the name with the person in his memory, and although he had experienced so much since leaving Corcova, he had not forgotten the memories of his childhood.

Griffiin nodded, as if the mention of the name made her look a little complicated: "He gave me a suggestion in the letter......
