Chapter 15: A Perfect Ending
"You'll get the chance to command a stronger force......"
Understood the underlying lines in the words, which also made the quiet Al Andergrims appear for the first time after arriving here, an expression that can barely be called surprise, and he looked seriously at the smiling Finn and Keys, and nodded for a while
"Maybe you're right, although I don't know martial arts and my health is not very good, but after so many years of conquest and fighting, I have never felt such a compelling ...... from anyone Feel! Even King Ulric, the honorary Grand Master of the Lion Knights, who is known as the Knight King of Pande, is not ......"
Laughingly, he patted Al on the shoulder, and Leo spoke proudly
"Finn they are the strongest, there is no one, I always believe that!"
Without waiting for El, who was not accustomed to this enthusiasm, to speak, Leo continued
"Okay, you and these two soldiers will rest here first, and we'll talk in detail after I'm done with everything at the banquet, El You need to understand, it's not suitable for you to suddenly appear in front of others at such a time!"
"Of course, as you wish, Your Highness, I understand very well"
"Hmm"
Nodding slightly, Leo didn't say much, and walked back to the hall with Finn and Keith company, after all, as a host, it always seemed rude to leave the table for a long time on such an occasion
**********************
Smiling and greeting several nobles who greeted him, Leo walked to his seat and asked the system in his mind, the question of military command, from which he had to be completely sure of the other party's loyalty
"There is no problem host, Al Andergrims, like the previous Aldaryan, has materialized into this world at the same time, retaining most of his memories and intact personality At the same time, I have also implanted the factor of absolute loyalty to you, this kind of loyalty engraved on the genetic level, there will be absolutely no problem, you can completely trust everything about him......"
"I see, but the existence of El makes me wonder more and more whether Pander really exists, and what level of the system is your master...... Life? ”
“……”
Ignoring Leo's exclamation, the system remained silent as always
Smiling freely, and no longer entangled in this, Leo picked up his glass and began a new round of toasts at the banquet, which made the already extremely warm venue once again set off a climax......
The first Knight True Sword Fight on the continent lasted for a week, and the celebrations organized by Stormwind City followed it for a whole week, and in the end, the championship of the competitive fighting tournament was won by Case, and his opponent in the final was Ardarian
As a result, in the battle between the two old enemies, because Aldalian did not draw a bow and arrow as a weapon, he was beaten by Keith in the frontal battle
This also made a certain deputy captain look happy for a long time, but the storm wings who were temporarily trained by Noldor were unlucky, and they were led by the angry Noldor Lord to lead people to die......
Putting these aside, including military parades, including the lord's distribution of food to the lords, and even the grandeur of the Colosseum beyond people's imagination, these will slowly spread throughout the continent with countless caravans and nobles long after the celebration
While making the names of the Duchy of Leo and Pande even more resounding, it also made him gain a lot of prestige, of course, these are follow-up ......
Time passed quickly, and after all the activities were over, the nobles said goodbye one after another, after all, not everyone can be like Leo, who does not have to worry about the safety of their territory and the loyalty of those left behind
Early in the morning, in front of the gate of Stormwind City, after the last nobleman of the Northern Leader said goodbye and got into the carriage and left, the three Duke of Lancaster, who were left alone to the last, slowly walked on the wide main road accompanied by Leo himself......
"Your Highness, everything you have experienced here is still like a dream to me, maybe we are all old, we dare not and can't try to change, but you are different, I believe that one day, your light can shine on the entire continent!"
Looking at the huge but temporarily empty statue bases on both sides of the main road, the Duke of Lancaster suddenly sighed with some interest
"Your Excellency the Duke, I have never neglected the help of you and everyone else, it is your strong political and other support that has enabled me, as an outsider, not to take many detours, and directly or indirectly create everything I am ...... today."
With a smile, Leo looked at the Marquis of Hohenzollern and Auston on the side, and said sincerely
"If there is a day, all those who have faced difficulties with me will also enjoy glory with me!"
……
After saying that, the few people stopped talking for a while, and walked in silence for a while, before Auston opened his mouth to remind
"Your Highness, we must be prepared and always vigilant for the next move of the imperial capital, in our understanding, neither Rolf nor the church can suffer a loss and not respond, the longer it drags on, the more violent the storm will be!"
"I understand, my dear friend, after you go back, the development of your territory will still focus on military affairs for the time being, and later I will ask the Knights to send some instructors to help you train the new army, the Duchy's side...... It's also time to expand the armament, time is relative, give me enough time, and I won't be afraid even if I am the enemy of the entire continent at that time! ”
The sonorous and powerful words came out of Leo's mouth without hesitation, and it was strange that several people around him didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and now they already had an unspeakable feeling that they could unconditionally believe that Leo could do more incredible things
……
There is always an end to the long road, and the huge gate of Stormwind City can already be clearly seen in front of them, and several people have stopped their steps in unison, and the Duke is the first to speak
"Okay, Your Highness, just send it here, as the leader of the principality, you need to maintain your due majesty in front of the commoners and your subordinates now, so that you can better rule the country, benevolence and humility are virtues but they cannot be used everywhere, you ......"
"Yes, I understand what you mean, after that I will ask Mr. Victor to send someone to establish a safe communication channel between us, and then we will need the support of a few people, then leave it at that, maybe it won't be long before we can fight side by side again!"
After speaking, Leo clapped his hands, and at his signal, the butler led people to pull out three unusually tall and sturdy war horses with snow-white bodies from the entourage behind him
"This is a little bit of my heart and gift, the pure-blooded war horses from Saarion in the Knight Kingdom of Pande, I think only they can match a few noble statuses!"
After the three of them returned the salute, they did not shirk, and with the help of the guards, they mounted their war horses, and stroked the saddle carefully made of extra pure gold and precious stones with their hands a few times in admiration
"Let's go see Elena, Your Highness, we have taken up your time for so long, I'm afraid she's already starting to get anxious, haha~"
In agreement, Leo ignored the good-natured teasing of a few nobles and slowly walked to the carriage that was slowly following behind......
"Elena...... I...... Sorry, but there are too many things going on and our opponents won't give us much time, so our engagement party will only be in three months' time, I'm afraid ......"
The knights of the surrounding guards consciously dispersed, leaving enough hidden space for their masters, and Leo gently took Elena's little hand, looking at the girl next to him with red eyes because of parting
Grabbing Leo's hands around her waist, Elena put herself into her lover's arms, looking up and shaking her head imperceptibly
"Don't say sorry dear, I've had a great time this week, I believe in your promise and our love, nothing can separate us except death, I will prepare everything in the family and wait for that day to come"
After saying that, the girl ignored the fact that there were many people around, stood on tiptoe and blushed, and after kissing Leo lightly on the cheek, she shyly raised her feet and jumped back into the carriage......
Holding her hot cheeks with her hands for a while, Elena remembered that Leo was waiting outside, but she was no longer embarrassed to appear in front of everyone after impulsiveness, so she could only say goodbye in a gentle voice in the carriage
"Go back, my dear, you have countless people and knights besides me who need you, take care of your health, and remember to write to me often...... Well, don't learn badly with Ardarian, the smell of fat powder on his body can be smelled far away these days! ”
…… Leo smiled bitterly and rubbed his nose, he could think of the naïve look of the girl in the car wrinkling her little nose when she said this, but he still comforted him with kind words, and promised to take care of the innocent Lord Noldor after going back, which satisfied Elena......
Not far away, the Duke and the others saw that the two had finished saying goodbye, so they turned their heads in time and said goodbye to Leo again, and after the carriage and the guards and knights behind them came to meet, they did not turn back and rode away outside Stormwind City......
With his hands behind his back, Leo watched quietly, until the last figure also disappeared from view, then he got on the horse and turned around with people to leave, at this moment his heart was also full of fighting spirit, I believe that under his leadership, the future of the principality will be stronger and richer!
