"Legitimate rule does not derive from its legitimacy, but from its rule. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info So privately, I don't care what the nobles say about it. I only believe what I see with my eyes and what I feel in my heart."

- Itsev Peter

"Wow!" With the taut reins, the war horse slowly stopped under the control of the rider, rubbed the frozen blue and purple face vigorously, Itsev turned over and jumped off the horse, stood in place and jumped a few times, only then did he feel a little conscious of his numb legs, and reached out to help Rode, who was also wrapped in a blanket that was not lightly frozen, and Itsev began to rummage in the backpack on the war horse, "Hey! Boy, come over and help, you have to move, understand? Otherwise, in less than 2 hours, I would have to worry about what to do with a stiff corpse. ”

The spirit of the spirit shuddered, Rhodes wrapped the blanket that he had turned out from the war horse before, stretched out his hand and began to help find it, his teeth kept chattering for a long time before he said a complete sentence, "De~ Sir, where are we going to go~?" Gotta ~~"

Itsev looked at the small flask that he turned out in his hand, twisted the cap and sniffed it first, then put it to his mouth and poured it hard, wiped the wine stains on his beard and handed the flask to Rod, "We have been going north, boy, I have heard that the castles of the nobles in the north are relatively scarce, and the nobles treat the duke with less respect, unless you have a better proposal!" And boy, don't call me sir, call me Itsev, by the way tell me your name. ”

"Rode, Mr. Rod Weir, oh no, Itseff!" After learning to drink all the remaining wine, Rod also felt a little warmth and quickly replied.

"Very well, Rod, now tie the blanket around your body with this rope and stuff these into the gaps!" Itsev, who had lived in the ice and snow for many years, held a handful of dry weeds and leaves in his hand and handed it to Rod, reached out and pulled out a knight's spare sword from his backpack, looked at the money bag and some other bits and pieces inside, thought about it, and simply tied the whole backpack and carried it on his back.

Turning his head to look at Rhodes, who was obediently stuffing hay into his clothes, Itsev slapped the horse's ass with the back of his sword, looked at the war horse that was running away in the opposite direction in the neighing, and took the lead in stepping into the forest in front of him, "Keep up, boy, if you don't want to be fertilizer, just follow me, let's ...... north"

"Click! Bang dang~~" The two guards outside the door of the duke's mansion listened to the sound of things being smashed in the house, and couldn't help but look at each other, shrunk their shoulders and quickly stood up straight, for fear of being angered by the angry duke inside, and by the way, they prayed silently for the knight who was suffering the anger.

"You mean, two! Well, two of my knights, two knights who had spent a lot of my gold coins training and arming, died at the hands of a small village farmer? Behind a chair that had fallen to the ground, Duke Orlando Roland Christian roared wildly, the golden wine glass in his hand twisted and distorted.

The knight of the White Moon Knights who took the lead in the village before was like a frightened quail at this time, his pale face did not have a trace of blood, and the whole person knelt on his knees in front of the duke, "Your Excellency, I'm afraid it's what you think, I really didn't know that such a thing would happen, if it weren't for the traitors among the heavy crossbowmen......"

"Bang!" Before the knight's words of explanation were finished, the wine glass in the duke's hand had already smashed on his face, and the duke, who was still angry, rushed over again, and began to kick desperately at the fallen knight, and after a while, the duke, who had vented a little, took a few steps back, looked at the knight who was lying on the floor in front of him and had a swollen face like a pig, and ordered in an undoubted tone, "Don't explain to me, never!" Now get the hell out of here and increase the size of the search team. Let's get my eyes moving in every noble castle and city, and I'll know where these two filthy, damned rats are going as soon as possible! ”

The knight with a blue nose and swollen face nodded desperately, and looked at the knight's ugliness in disgust, and the duke added, "I want to see if there is any nobleman in the north of the empire who is not afraid of death who dares to take in these two rats!" Now, get out of here for me, let the soldiers hang all the corpses of all the people in that village at the gates of the city, and let all those who dare to resist see what will happen to these mobs! ”

——————————————————————————————————————I'm the dividing line

Just when the Duke of White Moon was furious and arranged his manpower, the barony, far north of White Moon Castle, was peaceful, pulling his collar, and the exuberance of the bonfire made Baron Leicester, who was talking about it, covered with fine beads of sweat.

After taking the last sip of tea, the baron concluded by concluding, "In general, the Duke is such a person, irascible, sensitive and dictatorial, not only with the commoners, but even if a minor nobleman like me offends him a little, the consequences are extremely serious, there was a rumor in the northern aristocratic circles that a certain baron who mocked the Duke's dress at a banquet was ambushed on the way back without leaving a single living mouth, and the Baron's territory was also encroached upon by the Duke for various reasons, Although the final investigation was found to be the work of some bandits, almost everyone knew what was going on. ”

"Your account has bewildered me, my dear brother, I do not understand that on this continent it is possible for people to tolerate such a person becoming a nobleman, or even a noble duke, forgive my offense, the Empire's approach to this is completely wrong." After Leo listened quietly, he was a little surprised, this Nima is completely in the style of the standard villain lord in riding and slashing, selfishness and inflated ambition, burning the village and slaughtering the city are all daily affairs.

"Well, these nobles in our northernmost part are less affected, although theoretically we should also be under the jurisdiction of the Duke," said the baron, who had brought Leo a cup of hot tea.

"Forgive me for interjecting undeservedly!" Evely whispered behind the baron's back, "Leo, I beg to help me persuade Lester?" Amid the doubts of several and the baron's wry shake of his head, Evely's melodious voice continued: "My husband always said that we should be kind to our people according to the traditions of our ancestors, and not only did he almost give up the right of the nobility to collect taxes from his lords, but he often used our meager savings to buy food and seeds to help the poorer in times of disaster and winter. The baroness, who was a little choked as she spoke, gently grasped her husband's palm, but the eyes that looked at the baron were full of pride and love.

"Your Excellency the Baron will not listen to us, Your Highness!" At this time, Andrew also stepped forward and interjected, "In order to maintain the most basic aristocratic decency, the baron does not even agree with us to recruit more soldiers, even the equipment on me and the other two sacrificial knights is equipped and maintained by ourselves, as a nobleman, in addition to Leonard's butler, there are only 5 maids in the huge baronial palace to take care of the lady and children." ”

Helplessly, he lifted his head, "I get up almost every morning thinking that we will go bankrupt because of this!" Andrew said helplessly.

Patting the back of his wife's hand, he looked apologetically at his loyal family knight, and the baron looked at Leo sincerely, "Believe me, my brother, what Evely and Andrew said is true, but please don't be sad and surprised, as a true nobleman, we have reason and must make the life of our people as satisfying as possible, and the reason for all this is not that others, but that I, a foolish man, cannot find the true way to have the best of both worlds." ”

"This is definitely a good lord of the people, and he is definitely the existence that can be the most loyal friend, if such a lord becomes a close friend with him in the game, he will never betray him for the rest of his life." After hearing this, Leo could hardly hold back his excitement: "This time it's definitely the right time, I've picked up the treasure!" ”

Thinking of this, Leo did not hesitate, he understood better than everyone in this plane the truth of striking while the iron is hot and sending charcoal in the snow, sorted out the armor without dust on his body, stood up solemnly, Leo bowed slightly to the somewhat stunned baron and said, "Please forgive my superficiality, my brother, before your wife and your loyal knight spoke, I didn't even notice these details, nor did I find these kindnesses in you that made me feel a little inferior." ”

After commanding the system in his heart, Leo signaled slightly to Finn next to him, and after seeing Finn who understood what he meant striding out of the Baron's Palace, Leo smiled and continued, "Then I think that a nobleman of such a noble character should not refuse help from another nobleman, especially a gift from a brother......"
