Fenrir informed Avi of Bradley's choice, and at the same time, Bradley ended his meeting with Walter, who was standing at the mouth of Walter's barracks, looking out over the city of Mallot, built on the plains and beside the two rivers. Who the owner of Mallott City was really not the most important thing for Bradley, the eldest son of King Byron was able to sacrifice and give more than anyone else.

Avi couldn't calm down for a long time, "at the cost of giving up the throne ... How so..."

"I've told you about Bradley's ambitions, and for Bradley, he doesn't care about anything you care about, do you think Bradley is here to gather troops to grab the throne?"

"If it weren't for the throne..."

"It's to secure the throne and not fall into the hands of some careerists!" Fenrir seemed to change from lying down to sitting, "If Amsoil really became the prince naturally, then Bradley would not be able to fight his brother with a sword! The fact that Amsoil is alive and being sent back to the westernmost part of the kingdom is proof of this!"

Avi always hoped that Prince Bradley would become the new king, and he thought that Bradley had the determination to become king, but Fenrir's explanation made Avi clearly realize his mistake - the kingdom can be handed over to any royal family, and handing it over to outsiders will inevitably collapse the foundation of the Kingdom of Salins, and the interests of the Kingdom of Salins are above all else, this is Bradley's true thoughts.

"If Walter doesn't think so, he's still on guard against His Royal Highness the Prince, wouldn't he..."

"It's a gamble," Fenrir's tone grew heavier, "The funeral mercenary group was chosen because this mercenary group, which was contrary to Bradley's ambitions, had a special ability to defeat Amsol's ambitions in the quickest and most deterrent way. We're going to spare the lives of Amsul's men as much as we can, and we're going to crush them as quickly as we can, they're all Kingdom soldiers!Bradley would rather sacrifice ten mercenaries than a Kingdom soldier!"

Avi gradually understood Bradley's hard work, and the nine mercenary groups of the mercenary union have been spurned by the people of the mainland, the reason is because these guys who have power are doing things that harm themselves and others, and even do not hesitate to provoke contradictions between all parties in secret. They are the moths of the continent, and the rulers love and hate them.

Fenrir lay down again, his breathing was much smoother, "In addition to getting a lot of money, the funeral mercenary group has also received other rewards, Bradley He is not willing to give this blood-sucking 'leech' more blood of the people of the kingdom, we must solve the dilemma in front of us as soon as possible, and any further delay will only make all aspects of the Kingdom of Sarins fall backwards." ”

Avi was aware of the narrowness of his horizons, and as they had said before, Bradley valued the Kestrel Academy very much, and even went to the Kestrel Academy as an examiner when he first returned to Mallot, in order to see for himself the future pillars of the Kingdom of Sallins. Bradley has his eyes on the future, while the other power contenders are still intriguing and intriguing, and they may not have thought about how much their ambitions will hurt the kingdom of Sallins. The frontier nobles who didn't have the core power would probably be happy to see this, as would the intriguing Queen Rosemund, but Avi knew by this time that Bradley would not allow this to continue.

Worried about Bradley, Avi finally fell asleep. He didn't know if Fenrir had slept or not, but Bradley showed up in the council's tent the next day as usual, unharmed by Walter.

"Brother Walter agreed to my suggestion that we join forces against Rosemund and the Queen's faction at the banquet, and this time we have gained a loyal ally. Bradley, who had left his barracks late at night, looked in good spirits, but Avi and Fenrir were listless, especially Fenrir.

William began by reporting: "The rations have arrived, enough for two months, and the siege equipment is ready to be assembled." All the mercenary groups were paid, and while they weren't very reliable, they showed no signs of betraying us. ”

"Well, it's enough to have that kind of support, we need to do it quickly. Avi noticed from Bradley's conversation with William that Bradley was ready for a long confrontation, but after successfully joining forces with Walter, he was determined to end it all at the banquet in two days' time.

"If Walter is also a reliable and loyal ally, what about Roberto?" I think it is necessary for us to woo this nobleman of the Duchy of Deraman, who once fought side by side. ”

"It doesn't make much sense, does it? He has all the wounded soldiers at his disposal, so does he ask this nobleman, who fights like a madman, to join us at the feast?" asked Eggsy rhetorically.

"Roberto should have been invited, as evidenced by his willingness to join us against Amsoil shows that he is not our enemy, nor is the Duchy of Deramain. Bradley picked up a letter on the table and handed it to Gadia, "Give it to the Marquis, I hope he will be able to protect Miss Christine, who is the future queen when things change." ”

Avi suddenly remembered the letter he had written to Fried's seniors, which should have been delivered to the Duchy of Mageni a few days ago. If Grass marries the last prince, and that man is Bradley...

"One thing you all have to keep in mind is that in the banquet in two days' time, no one is allowed to kill innocents, we just need to take the 'poisonous sores' of Mallotrie," Bradley turned to Avi, "Avi, I will give you another task. ”

"I'll do my best!"

"Protect Natney at the banquet," Bradley's resolute expression softened slightly, "She's my most cherished sister, and Amsol's affair must have made her sad, and I don't want anything to happen to her again." ”

At this moment, Avi wanted to push this task to someone else, but he still responded immediately: "I use my life as a guarantee..."

"There's no need for such assurance," Bradley interrupted Avi, "I'll protect her, even you... My swordsmanship is no worse than anyone else's. ”

Seeing that everyone else was laughing, Avi laughed along with them. Everyone present received their tasks, and if things did not change, the preparations for the next two days would have been completed. Eggesy said that he would select the three hundred of the most valiant members of the new Knights of the Iron Wall to follow Bradley into Mallot, including one of the squadron leaders of the former Knights of the Iron Wall. Avi had heard that the squadron leader had been Faulkner's right-hand man, and that because of the importance of this mission, the senior squadron leader had gone into battle himself.

Marcelo also sent information from Mallot, saying that there was not much movement in Mallot, that his men had been lurking all over Mallot, and that he had bought a tavern near the West Gate, ready to respond to those who might need to retreat. If they were really the most elite members of this Knights, then even if there was an ambush, they would be sure to protect Bradley's retreat. However, Avi is no longer as worried as before, and after learning of Bradley's determination, he is determined to give it a go, even if he can't be as selfless as Bradley, he no longer hesitates.

The day before the feast, Avi had one of the knight's attendants deliver all of his personal belongings to Fan, including the old ring that had lost its enchantment in an iron box. There's also the token dagger of the two-color blade mercenary group, the black blade like a withered branch, and a diary that just started to record things. Avi eventually left a suicide note for Fan, he didn't tell Fan about the actions at the banquet, he just said that he was going on a very dangerous mission, and if he didn't make it back alive to get these things back, then let Fan send the diary and the old ring to Charlik's house in Goldhoof City, as well as the small amount of gold coins that had been stored in Fan's hand. As for the other two things, they were handed over to Felisty, thanking her for her continued care.

Avi only found out that he didn't have anything left behind after giving away everything, and that the guards that Coral paid him for his guards spent more than half of them on various things. However, as long as this plan succeeds, then his future will be very bright, and the price of failure is only death, and he should have died when the Golden Hoof City received the "righteous verdict".

On the afternoon of the feast, Avi decided not to wear the heavy and ill-fitting plate armor, he borrowed a pair of fitted soft leather armor from Eggsy, then changed into leather boots, removed the iron bracers, and traveled lightly. The new white lion sword was sharper than the old one, and the blade was a little shorter, making it perfect for melee combat. Avi also meditated briefly before leaving, but Mr. Bennicott seemed to have been dormant and did not respond to Avi.

"Avi, these two are my brothers, he is Broken Eyebrow, he is Stone Axe, they are my most important companions, you just need to stand behind the Stone Axe, stand next to Broken Eyebrow, they will protect you as a recruit!"

The left eyebrow of the Broken Eyebrow has been amputated, and he is carrying a half-man-tall heavy crossbow with what appears to be three eyebrows. The stone axe was particularly strong, and the stone weapon with a blunt blade was not large, but it was certainly heavy. Both of these men gave Avi a sense of trustworthiness, and sure enough, like Eggsie, they were good hands among good hands.

Gardia, Eggsie, Avi, and Broken Eyebrow the Stone Axe together make up Bradley's personal bodyguard. Stone Axe and Broken Brow were in the middle row of the three-hundred, Gadia and Eggsy walked on either side of Bradley, and Avi stood in the middle of the second row of Bradley's personal guard.

"I just hope Walter really keeps his promise," Egges whispered to Gadia after leaving the barracks, "Your Royal Highness, he has bet all his chips on the third prince, and whether it is two against one or one against two depends on Walter's choice." ”
