Forty minutes later, the expressionless Ciri followed Jadol, who was also sinking like water, to the other party's residence. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info His relationship with Jadol was, undoubtedly, much closer than all those allies, but there was one more Grant who came to Jador's room with them.

This king's henchman had previously cheated Zigra IX. The title of earl was in hand, and he became the man whom the king hated the most. But all the while, Ciri didn't understand why this guy helped them, and he didn't know if he really wanted a piece of his own territory so much.

When he arrived at the place, Jador still took out a bottle of good wine as red as blood according to the old rules. When he had filled the wine for all three of them, Ciri was the first to speak.

"My lord, today's incident is really reckless. It is necessary to seek territory, but in this way, we have all become a thorn in the king's side? ”

"If you don't make a thorn in your side, he'll give you a suitable territory," said Jador as he took a sip of his glass. "Let me tell you, there is information that several princes of the Kingdom of Rolando have reached a preliminary reconciliation, and the nobles are ready to counterattack the Duchy of Canter. When the time comes, we won't even have a chance to fight for this territory. ”

A principality that occupies one-seventh of its territory does not think of retaking it until the capital of that principality is lost. The battle for the throne of the Rolando Kingdom can be persistent to this part, and Ciri expressed his "admiration"!

Stopping Rolando's army, even if he doesn't blow up the river embankment, he is confident, but if he doesn't have Pompeit as the archduke's protection, how can he make a difference under the layman of Zigra IX? Shaking his head, he was about to speak, but the old guy stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Don't say anything. Rest assured, as soon as Rolando's army arrives, Pombert will definitely return. When the time comes, I will give you a piece of my territory, and if you are willing, it will be no problem for me to be my heir. ”

Ciri is not laughing when he is angry. Helplessly, he had to turn his attention to Grant's side.

"My lord, what kind of play are you playing? Hughet and Leeds are both borders of Kante, but with the big river in the north, we still have to worry about the alien bandits in the hills? ”

"I just want a piece of territory to live comfortably, can't I?" Grant couldn't tell whether his face was sad or happy. "After so many years, I've seen it through. Our majesty, the king, use you, you are a confidant, without you, you are nothing! In that case, it's better to find a territory. It's better than staying with him! ”

"Lord Grant, is that what you are telling the truth? Don't forget, Your Majesty won't send us more troops, your Heguet's territory is still in the hands of others. ”

Ciri said with suspicion.

A king's henchman suddenly changes his ways, how much resentment does this have to accumulate? If so, he could still serve Zigra IX so calmly?

"Of course it's a lie."

Grant sighed.

"Lord Siri, I know that since you joined the Expeditionary Force, you have been secretly plotting the ownership of the territory of the Duchy of Kante, and even done a lot of unsightly things. And there's nothing wrong with that. Besides, since Rolando's army, they can't hold this place, and these plans are all empty talk. But why are you flirting with the Marquis of Pompeit? Do you know how embarrassing it is for us nobles directly under the kingdom? ”

"My lord, you are aware that if you don't want a territory, you will cause the dissatisfaction of the nobles, and let the Marquis of Pompeit continue to be a lonely vassal?"

Ciri said lightly, but in his heart, he couldn't help but admire Zigra IX a little. Good face, self-righteous, only conspiratorial and intriguing, but mean and unkind. Such a monarch even had loyal courtiers like Pombert and Grant, and it was not a shame that he went directly from an earl to the throne of King Zigra.

"Perhaps, I should really listen to Mike's advice and find someone to fight this fat pig king in the ring." Ciri couldn't help but think to himself. Things have developed so far, and many things have exceeded the original estimates. The orcs are unreliable, and the white blue country has its own plans, so it is better to take the initiative to plan on your own.

"Lord Grant, I don't ask for anything but to be the earl of Leah's land. Not the acting lord of the city, but the real lord of the earl's fief! ”

Grant frowned. Originally, he wanted to get some words from Ciri's side, but now that things have developed, he has increasingly found that he has also fallen on the other party's thief ship.

"Count Leah? Lord Ciri, you can withstand the onslaught from Rolando. ”

"Of course. I can train my troops, and my subordinates are not afraid of death. What's there that can't be held? "Seeri swears by it." But only if the lords of Kante give me enough support. ”

Grant stared at Ciri for a long time with a tiger face, and finally sighed faintly. "Oh well. May you keep your promises. ”

With that, the king's henchman turned and left. He knew that from the moment he and Zigra IX fought for the ownership of Huguet, he was no longer the other party's henchman. But he didn't know that Ciri was now planning how to push the former prince Mike Zigra out of Zigra IX!

------------------------------

Three months later, Leah Street. Dressed in a new way, Sirui is also like a passerby, walking in this new city that has not been built for 50 years.

The territories of Huguet and Leeds already belonged to Grant and Jadol respectively, and the entire Kanter worked, and only the Great Castle of Lucian in the southeast was left that did not belong to the Kingdom of Zigra. However, Ciri, who has made countless feats in the battle of this principality, is still wearing the cloak of a viscount.

Yes, all of Ciri's allies have been given the territories they want, but Ciri himself has not been given the corresponding titles and territories.

Just three months earlier, he had embarked on a campaign against the three territories of Huguet, Leeds, and Leah in the Duchy of Canter, with a private army of the middle nobles of Zigra. Although the army lacks the coordination of the king and the marshal, the cooperation between the nobles is far better than the previous expeditionary army!

The reason is very simple, the aristocracy has never been profitable, and has always been the most selfish. Because everyone knows that they are destined to gain nothing and gain from this battle with the army. The purpose is clear, and the nobles will also become "simpler".

Thanks to this simple blessing, the two territories of Huggett and Leeds, it only took half a month for the army to sweep away all the old forces! Grant and Jador fulfilled their promise to take as long as they wanted the territory, and other things such as goods, but in the following conquest, the nobles who had already eaten with their mouths full of oil became more and more intense. Without any teasing from Desiree inside, these bastards led their army all the way south. (To be continued.) )
