Under the scorching sun overhead, the carriage traveled through the main road of Harvest City, the boulder-paved avenue was very flat, but the high temperature after the sun also made this avenue a piece of iron, Marshall Knight and Abel sat in the carriage, wearing luxurious gowns, and in a short time they were already covered with fine sweat.

At this moment, Abel misses his car in his previous life, although it is not very good, but there is ambiguity in cold weather, and air conditioning in hot weather.

In Abel's complaint, the carriage gradually approached the City Lord's Mansion, and when the carriage slowly stopped, the coachman said loudly: "Lord Knight, Master Abel, the City Lord's Mansion of Harvest City has arrived." ”

Hearing the coachman's words, the Marshall knight tidied up the dress on his body, took out a towel from the cabinet in the carriage, wiped the sweat off his forehead, handed Abel a towel, and said: "Today is an important day, wipe the sweat off your head, don't be rude!"

When the Marshall knight and Abel stepped out of the carriage, the huge high wall of the City Lord's Mansion came into Abel's eyes, the last time he came here was at night, and the City Lord's Mansion during the day appeared even more grand and imposing.

Seeing that the Marshall Knight and Abel got out of the carriage, the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, who had been waiting for a long time in a butler's dress, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed to the two and said, "Salute to you, Honorable Marshall Knight, Honorable Master Abel, I am here to welcome the arrival of the two adults on the order of the City Lord!"

Since Abel is the adopted son of the Marshall Knight, it is the Marshall Knight who comes forward on such formal occasions, and the knight bows slightly and says to the city warden: "I am very happy to see you, and my adopted son Abel and I are very honored to be invited to meet the honorable city lord. ”

Abel followed the Marshall knight and bowed slightly, thanking the butler.

Under the guidance of the housekeeper, through the huge courtyard, although the fountain in the middle of the courtyard is not as bright as at night, but under the sunlight, it seems to be a little more cool, after entering the hall, Abel really felt the coolness, the huge rock wall of the hall will completely block the heat outside.

Walking through a long corridor to a gate carved with the goddess of harvest, the butler stood still and whispered to the Marshall knight and Abel, "This is the reception room, and the lord of the city is waiting for you." ”

When he saw the city lord Viscount Dickens again, Abel's feeling was more profound than the last time he came, and the powerful power from the body of the city lord Viscount Dickens was like a volcano, although it did not erupt, but just standing in front of him felt a heavy pressure.

"Master Abel, have you been promoted?" Viscount Dickens knew how powerful the fighting spirit in his body was against the knights, but the young master blacksmith in front of him showed that he was suppressed by his fighting spirit, which surprised him very much.

You must know that Viscount Dickens's vindictive coercion is only aimed at formal knights, and those who are accustomed to knights can't feel this kind of coercion, and Abel's performance shows that he has become a formal knight.

"Yes, honorable city lord!" replied Abel bowed slightly without humility or arrogance, and swiped a fancy salute in the air with one hand.

Viscount Dickens was secretly glad that he did not treat Abel badly in terms of military exploits, such a genius is rare not only in the Principality of Kamai, but also in the entire human world, it turned out that Abel befriended him because of his status as a blacksmith master, and now he finds that Abel is not only talented in forging, but also talented in knight training.

Viscount Dickens pointed to a knight on the side and said, "This is the Knight of Saloyan, and he led the army to complete this encirclement and suppression of the orcs." ”

The Saloyan knight gave a salute to the Marshall knight and Abel, and this opportunity for meritorious service was provided by them, and the Saloyan knight always wanted to thank him in person, and this gift was the sincere gratitude expressed by the Saloyan knight.

For the goodwill with the senior knights of the military, Marshall Knight and Abel also hurriedly returned the salute, and the atmosphere between the two sides seemed very friendly.

"The battle was very successful, 159 official orc cavalry, including 2 high-ranking orc cavalry, and wounded a heavy sparrow. Viscount Dickens said with a smile.

It turned out that the heavy sparrow was injured by the army, and Abel already knew the origin of Bai Yun's injury at this time, but fortunately Bai Yun was not exposed.

Viscount Dickens turned his head to look at Abel and said: "Master Abel, the two corpses you sent yesterday have been identified by the Saloyan knights, one of them escaped from the encirclement and suppression, with a noble identity, protected by two high-ranking orc cavalry, and I also sent this battle merit to the military headquarters of Gangba City overnight, and the military department raised your reward master." ”

A big city like Harvest City has its own formation for transmitting information in the Blacksmith Guild, and the report of battle exploits will be rewarded according to the regulations after verification, and for the battle exploits reported by big city lords such as Viscount Dickens, the reply speed is very fast.

Hearing the increase in the reward, Abel couldn't help but be overjoyed, but fortunately he didn't bother to throw away the two corpses, and sure enough, the two corpses worked.

"Knight Marshall, for your heroic deeds of saving Matthew Castle and killing several orc cavalry in the process of protecting Harry Castle, the military headquarters of the Duchy of Kamai has awarded you the title of Lord!" Viscount Dickens announced with a solemn expression.

"All for the principality!" said Marshall Knight with a serious expression and half-kneeling in thanks.

"Knight of Saloyan, because of your good command, you killed 159 orc cavalry in the battle to encircle and suppress the orcs, and the military headquarters of the Principality of Kamai gave you a fief of 100 li, and you will have your own coat of arms. Viscount Dickens then declared.

The Saloyan knight knelt on the ground with tears on his face, you must know that from the fiefdom to the fiefdom noble, it is a world of difference, and since then the Saloyan knight has officially stepped into the realm of the upper nobles and become a real nobleman.

Finally, Viscount Dickens looked at Abel and smiled: "Master Abel, you have provided accurate information for the encirclement and suppression of orcs, and saved Matthew Castle, killing orc cavalry many times, in view of your outstanding achievements, the military department of the Principality of Kamai will give you the original territory of Matthew Castle and grant you the title of lord!"

Abel couldn't help but be a little unconvinced of his ears, this reward was a bit heavy, but looking at Viscount Dickens's smiling expression, he somewhat understood, this was Viscount Dickens who made a big effort in it, and maybe the military department and the king didn't want to offend a master.

Abel imitated the Marshall knight, half-kneeled and said, "All for the principality!"

The Saloyan knight on the side looked at Abel enviously, the military department rewarded Master Abel according to the highest standard, like this highest standard is generally only enjoyed by members of the royal family for meritorious service, and few non-royal family members can enjoy it.

Viscount Dickens smiled and helped Abel up, and said, "Do you call you Master Abel or Lord Abel?"

Indeed, for a blacksmith master like Abel, in the whole continent, the status of a blacksmith master is much higher than the title of a lord, but Abel is too young now and has not traveled in the mainland, and his master fame is only a medal of the blacksmith guild, only when there are many Abel works on the mainland, this fame will really precipitate and become Abel's real fame.

"You better call me Abel, the master and the lord are just titles. Abel replied with a smile.

Only a man like Master Abel, who cares about wealth and status, can do this. Viscount Dickens said with some sighs, and the knight of Saloyan on the side also deeply agreed.

Viscount Dickens continued: "On the Birthday of the Gods in two months' time, all three of you will arrive in the city of Gangba to attend the investiture ceremony, and you must not be late. ”

Generally speaking, the title and fief of the reward are already the recipient of the title after the reward, but in order to be fully officially recognized, you must go to the capital of the principality, Gomba City, to receive the king's honor, express gratitude to the king, and express loyalty to the principality.

When leaving, the Saloryan knight grabbed the Marshall knight and Abel, now Lord Marshall, and must find a place to celebrate with the two of them, the Marshall knight couldn't refuse, so he could only agree, of course, Lord Marshall also wanted to associate with the Saloryan knight, but Abel politely refused.
