"The world is the stage, everyone is the best actor, maybe only in the face of death, willing to tear off the mask used as a disguise in daily life"

- Leo's Diary

"No, you can't do that, no matter what mistakes they've made, they're still just kids......"

As soon as he subconsciously rode his horse forward, Lealdo had to stop under the fierce gaze of Keith and the rest of the punishment knights behind him, and the anxiety and pleading in his tone could move anyone

However, it obviously does not include Leo in his current form......

"Kid?" Leo stared at the fallen battlefield and sneered

"These children of yours, a short time ago, were besieging me and my loyal subordinates with swords and wielding war hammers, and their hideous faces were enough to put all adults to shame."

Leo turned his head and looked at Lealdo seriously, "There is a saying in my hometown, don't use youth as an excuse to make mistakes, everyone has to pay for what they have done......"

As often played in movies, at this time, a large number of city defense troops and knights of the Knights of Glory who were responsible for the security of the imperial capital arrived, countless snowy spears were raised high, and under the orders of the officers, a large number of antlers used to block the cavalry charge were also placed, and the dense and snowy arrows in the back row pointed diagonally at everyone in the field

After all this was completed, the officers led by the Knights of Glory and the generals of the city defense army rode to the side of several people, and the officers of the Glory Knights saw Li Aldo, and did not speak after respectfully saluting, but the bearded general from the city defense army beat his chest heavily and spoke loudly to several people

"Honorable Lords, forgive me for offending, I'm afraid you have to stop everything in front of you, I don't care how it happened, but such an act in the Imperial Capital has broken the law, and Your Majesty already knows about it, so please order your men to stop any attacks, disarm and let my soldiers take care of it for the time being......"

"Shut up!"

Lealdo first drank at the chattering general, and then glanced at the thousands of soldiers of the city defense army and the hundreds of glorious knights who were ready to attack, and spoke to Leo again

"Lord Leo, there are enough dead people, killing will not solve any problems, I beg you one last time, let your knights stop this!"

"Or else? Are these soldiers and your knights going to attack me? Just like some people did before? Do you want to be embarrassed to treat a high-ranking nobleman, the Empire, and you, the esteemed 'Heavenly Knight', like this? ”

Having said that, Leo secretly gave Keith a gesture to prepare to rein in the Knights, and if Lealdo was really ruthless, he had to make sure that he had enough concentrated forces to strike out, and at such a time, Leo would never tolerate giving in again

During the-for-tat confrontation between several people, Perran, who was lucky to survive while hiding, may have seen hope, and ran over with a rolling belt, carefully bypassing Leo and the others, and bowing deeply beside Lealdo

"Honorable Heavenly Knight, don't be deceived by him, Leo, this hillbilly is not a nobleman of the empire yet, he, he does not have the approval of the Imperial House of Lords, therefore, everything he said before is invalid, the laws of the empire cannot protect a commoner, he is plotting rebellion...... Ah~~~"

Before Perrin finished speaking, he was greeted not by the expected appreciation and gratitude, but by the hilt of the sword that slammed into his face, and Lealdo shook off the blood and tears stained with the hilt of the sword, and looked at Perrin who was rolling on the ground with pain covering the bridge of his nose with disgust

"Disgusting villain, if it weren't for the existence of you people, how could things have developed to this point, and how could the empire become what it is now!"

Spit on him fiercely, Lealdo looked up at Leo, and there was a trace of desperate madness in the other party's eyes, which made the old man sigh heavily and stop talking, and the screams of the students before death came from his ears, which finally made him close his eyes in pain and raise his right hand high......

Leo smiled miserably and stepped back with Keiss, knowing that when Lealdo's arm was swung down, he and the Empire would be in a situation where they would never die

"So be it, even if the timing is too hasty, it's better than just holding your hands and letting the merfolk go"

Leo had some regrets at this time, and after coming to the imperial capital, he didn't try his best to promote his identity authentication at the first time, and he still had too good expectations for this world

With a long sigh, looking at the knights who gradually gathered and regrouped, I don't know why, Leo's eyes flashed Elena's beautiful shadow, if they are separated because of this, I don't know when we will meet again......

Time seemed to freeze in this second, and just as the arm representing the attack signal was about to fall, another rapid sound of horses' hooves came from the far end of the street, and Lealdo opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the same time as Leo, who was also puzzled

"Damn it, bastard, quicker, faster!!"

Antonis, who was dressed in a long robe, was caught in front of his horse by a knight of the Lancaster family, holding a sheepskin scroll in his hand and rushing towards this side frantically, and the speed was so fast that a large number of family knights behind him fell hundreds of meters

After seeing Leo and Lealdo and the others, Antonis was eager, snatched the horsewhip of the knight behind him, and whipped the city defense soldiers who had no time to get out of the way, shouting in his mouth

"Leo, I brought the Noble House to authenticate your identity, and after my grandfather found out about you, he united the Hohenzollern family, the Merovingian family and all the allies to convene the Council of Nobles as quickly as possible, and passed the certification ...... for you."

Antonis's name and the Lancaster family behind him made the soldiers in front of him dare not move, and barely squeezed through the encirclement, and before the horses could stop completely, he rolled off his horse and rushed over in a position that almost fell, and handed the sheepskin scroll to Leo with his own hands

Bent down and gasped for a while, and the grim eyes swept over the stunned Pei Lan next to him, and then said with a laugh

"Certified, now you are completely, a true imperial nobleman who is protected by the laws of the empire and has great power, congratulations to your friend Leo Zhang, Your Excellency the Grand Duke of Stormwind!"

"Haha, hahahaha, hahahahaha!"

Leo, who has always suppressed himself in front of people and behaved extremely calmly, held the sheepskin scroll at this time, and couldn't help laughing wildly, and even tears burst out from the corners of his eyes, this certificate that can even be called a life-saving came too timely, and Antonis, who sent this, was like an angel in front of Leo at the moment

In front of Lealdo and everyone, Leo unfolded the scroll, and the six-pointed star seal representing the authority of the House of Lords was clearly visible even from a distance, and the autographs of the twelve noble councillors below could not be forged

Lealdo seemed to be much older for a moment, and slowly lowered his arm with some relief, even if he didn't dare to give the order to attack an archduke, let alone ...... He knew a little about the cause of the incident, but he also felt a little guilty about Leo at this time
