The lord of Doraise is named Gothra Hyde, who is sixteen years old, and his family has a long history of not inferior to the royal family of the Kingdom of Dylan, and has even intermarried with the royal family.

However, although the current Hyde family also controls a lot of territory, their generations of people are withering more and more, and by the time of Gorat's generation, only the sixteen-year-old Gorat himself is left in the entire Hyde family.

But this does not affect the dominance of the young lord, who has a loyal ............ Or the seemingly loyal minister in charge of the internal affairs, the presence of a loyal knight chief to handle military affairs, and most importantly, the fact that their family's patron found three hundred years ago, the thirteenth official dwarven warrior Bahanger, is still alive, all of which have kept the city of Doraise stable............ Provided there are no surprises that are hard to resist!

But what could be more unexpected than a widespread, fast-spreading epidemic?

Goralt was called up by the chief maid from the warm bed before dawn today, on the grounds that the ministers had important matters to discuss, which made Gorat, who had not paid attention to internal affairs for nearly a month, very surprised and even quite irritated, in his opinion, nothing could be more important than his three newly acquired beautiful little maids.

Under the service of several maiden servants, Gorat put on a gorgeous and heavy robe, filled the sachet with precious spices provided by the nobles for only one day, and finally impatiently ate some of the "delicacies of the mountains and seas" that had been greasy, and by the way, he pushed a few little maids into the pond on the way and watched them cry for help and amusement, until the internal affairs officer reminded the ministers again that they had been waiting for a long time, and Gorat, who was not having enough fun, walked to the government hall surrounded by a group of servants.

Located on the second floor of the castle in the center of Dorez, the whole room is full of strong aristocratic style, all kinds of gilded decorations, and luxurious ornaments make this hall more like a ball venue than a place to deal with government affairs.

In fact, there was no one here most of the time, and all the affairs were handled by the Minister of the Interior, Hutt, at his residence, and the sixteen-year-old lord Goerrat did not pay any attention to the so-called affairs except for the whole day with a group of little maids.

On this day, the luxurious hall rarely had a solemn atmosphere, and Gorat, who was sitting on the throne of the lord, even felt the heaviness of this "mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings".

"Your Royal Highness, there has been a large-scale epidemic in Dolaiz City and its three hundred and sixty-four villages and towns recently, and a large number of sick mobs are heading to Dolaiz City, for the safety of the people in the city, I hope that the city lord will close the city gate as soon as possible to prevent the mob from entering the city"!

A sloppy old man stepped out of the line with small steps and spoke of the plague in a tone that seemed to be a consultation but was closer to a direct order. As Home Secretary, Hurt's behavior can be said to have taken Goerrat almost without regard for him.

But Goerrat didn't mind Hutt's words and deeds, the minister had been a teacher of Gorat's various aristocratic knowledge since he was a child, and for the young lord who had no opinion, it was a matter of course to follow the "advice" of the other party.

Under Hurt's unquestionable "suggestion", Goralt only symbolically glanced around at the ministers who bowed their heads and remained silent, and then did not hesitate to agree to Hurt's suggestion. He also thinks about going back and "pampering" the little maid he received yesterday!

But just as Gorat's mouth was halfway open, a loud voice came from the entrance to the hall.

"Never, Your Highness."

With a clear and loud voice, a mighty and rigid middle-aged knight strode into the council hall, the golden armor was shining, the armor-wrapped military boots stepped on the exquisite carpet, and the sound of metal friction was long, until he walked in front of Gorat, the knight handsomely raised his crimson cloak, accompanied by a crisp long-term sound, and the mighty knight half-knelt on the carpet and performed a perfect knightly salute.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his serious face, which did not have a trace of beard, and looked at Hurt next to him with burning eyes, and reprimanded mercilessly in front of all the ministers.

"Hutt, you actually let His Royal Highness the Lord turn away the people and sit back and watch thousands of people die, where did you put the prestige and family motto of the Hyde family, and where did your Highness the Lord go?"

In the face of the knight's questioning, Hurt couldn't help but take a step back, and then immediately reacted, his eyes were full of hatred, but his mouth did not answer the knight's words at all.

"Knight Chief Cascasser, it's time for serious deliberations, and it's already a great rebellion for you to be late regardless of your duties, and now you're interrupting the deliberations of His Highness the Lord, is this what you call chivalry?"

The Knight of Cascasur, however, completely ignored Hurt's questioning and did not explain the reason for his tardiness, and he looked at the lord as if he had not heard Hurt's question at all, and said his "advice" in a sonorous voice.

"My lord, now there is not only a sudden outbreak of the plague, but also a cult that is rampant, and they are persecuting ............"

"Shut up, Cascasy, what evidence do you have to slander the church of Tishachar as a cult, are you blaspheming a great god without any basis?"

When he heard the words "cult rampant" written four words, Hurt roared like an old cat with his tail stepped on.

"You're enough, Hut, I don't know how much the church of Tishachar has done you, but the city of Dorez is in danger right now, and now is not the time to fight for power."

"You...... You ............"

Hurt couldn't hide his fear as he watched Casser stand up, the anger in the knight's eyes was like substance, and there were even faint fluctuations of fighting spirit on his body, as if the old man in front of him said one more word, and the knight was going to "eliminate harm for the people" on the spot.

Hurt swallowed his saliva, and finally held back his words.

Seeing that Hurt finally shut up, Casser glanced at the grudgeful Hurt with disdain, then bowed heavily and said loudly:

"Your Royal Highness, I suggest that you send out the city guards as soon as possible to exterminate the cult, appease the people, open the city of Dolaiz, and shelter the uninfected refugees"!

From beginning to end, he had been listening to the quarrel between his two most important ministers, Gorat on the throne had always felt dizzy, in fact, he didn't listen carefully to the quarrel between the two ministers, and Gorat, who was overwhelmed by the heavy dress, now just wanted to end this "boring" meeting quickly, so that he could go back and continue to warm up with those beautiful maids.

Hurt was keenly aware of his lord's impatience, and he knew that if he didn't say anything, the lord who was only trying to be happy would definitely agree to the knight's suggestion without even thinking about it, so he gritted his teeth to resist the power of Caskassy, and also "howled" in a male duck voice.

"No, Your Highness the Lord, how can you let those untouchables set foot in the sacred city of the Hyde family, not to mention that they are dirty and carrying the plague, if it is infected to you, Lord, then it will be repaid, is your health not comparable to the lowly lives of a group of peasants?"

"Hut, you are talking nonsense, as long as you do a good job of inspection, the plague will not come in at all, and once the people are left alone, won't the lord become the same person as those tyrannical rulers, aren't you afraid of being hunted down and killed by those righteous adventurers?"

I don't know if it was because the angry Casecasser who was about to burst out and kill people was too scary, or because the last two threats he said worked, Hurt seemed to be stuck in his throat by a chicken bone, and his red face turned red for a long time before he said a sentence:

"There are not many garrisons in the city of Dolaiz...... Military spending is also not enough...... How can you do so many things............"

"Then help the refugees first, at least not let the prestige of the Hyde family be ruined"!

Casser glared at the resentful Hurt, he didn't know whose pockets were all those military spending, but now was really not the time to pursue this, forcibly suppressed the urge to kill this traitor on the spot, he took a deep breath, and looked as calmly as possible at the young lord who had been moving around and couldn't sit still, waiting for the other party to make a decision.

Goerrat was already very impatient with this kind of resolution, he was used to throwing everything to his two ministers, he didn't know much about the plague or the cult, and now that he heard the argument between the two "assistants" finally had a result, of course he agreed without thinking.

As for specific actions...... Of course, it was handed over to the hard-working and respected Knight Captain Casscat.

Cassy glanced disappointedly at Gorat, who was eager to leave the council chamber, then helplessly glanced at the ministers who had not said a word from beginning to end, and finally sighed heavily and strode towards the main entrance.

Only the distorted Hurt was left staring at Caskasser's back with a resentful expression!
