As of the night before the founding ceremony of the Principality of Pritz, a total of more than a dozen small countries in the surrounding area sent envoys, although the Varu Empire did not send people, but at least the three southern provinces of Archduke William personally rushed over, which was enough to give Leo face.

On October 1, the 1346th year of the Alpha Continental Calendar, in the early morning when Duke Leo officially established the Duchy of Pritz, when the envoys of various countries were heading to the viewing hall specially prepared for the ceremony, they suddenly heard the sound of drums and trumpets outside the city of Pritz.

Along with the Knights of the Holy Judgment, there were also representatives sent by the coalition of countries led by the Paris Empire, and the purpose of their coming to Pritz City with the Knights of the Holy Judgment this time was to use the prestige of the Knights of the Holy Judgment to deter Leo, force Leo to bow his head, and clear Leo, the biggest obstacle to eradicating the royal family of Lorraine and carving up the Kingdom of Lorraine.

The reaction speed of the goblin soldiers is very fast, as early as when the Knights of the Holy Judgment approached Pritz City, the goblin soldiers were already alert from a shock on the ground, and they closed the city gate in time, keeping the Knights of the Holy Judgment out, no matter how the people of the Sect of Light shouted at the door, what kind of coercion and temptation were the answer: no door!

It wasn't until Leo personally rushed to the southern gate and saw a familiar figure in the Knights of the Holy Judgment that he ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome the representatives of the Sect of Light and the allied forces of various countries into the city.

"Oh, Duke Leo really hasn't seen him for a long time, I can't imagine that the former Viscount Leo has become a duke so quickly, young and promising! " Cardinal Owen, an old acquaintance of the Bright Sect, greeted Leo with a smile, and waited under the city as if he had never been there before. However, Leo naturally knew that this Cardinal Owen was extremely deep in the city, and his words could not be trusted at all.

"Honorable Cardinal Archbishop Owen, I am really flattered to have you come to the little city of Pritz in person! Naturally, Leo exchanged a few polite words with Cardinal Owen.

"You knights...... Please take a break outside the city. "Even if Cardinal Owen came in person, Leo would not allow the Knights of the Holy Judgment to enter the city, and if they took the opportunity to take the city, then today's founding ceremony would be a big joke.

Cardinal Owen didn't pay attention to Leo's words, but smiled and introduced Leo to the representatives of the allied forces that came with him, the first of which was the high-spirited envoy of the Paris Empire, who just glanced at Leo out of the corner of his eye, and a word floated softly from his nostrils: Hmph, and then walked past Leo with his head held high, not at all Leo.

Even if Leo thought that his self-cultivation was quite good, in the face of the envoy's provocation, Leo couldn't help but clench his fists. However, the Palliste envoy was also convinced that Leo would not dare to be rude to himself in front of Cardinal Owen and the Knights of the Holy Judgment, so he walked over without fear.

With the example of the envoy of Paris, the representatives of the coalition forces of various countries also passed by Leo proudly, but no one stopped to say hello to Leo, in their eyes, the coalition army was enough to crush this small principality dozens of times, and they didn't need to care about Leo at all.

In the face of these people's rudeness and provocation, Leo was aroused even if he was a clay man. However, Leo still took a deep breath, released his clenched fists, and did not bother with them, but thought in his heart: Hmph, I hope you can stand still in the viewing hall later.

When the Knights of the Holy Judgment were about to enter Pritz City with Cardinal Owen behind him, Leo ordered the goblin soldiers to stop them, although they had to face the knights on tall horses, and the other party looked like well-trained elites, but the goblin soldiers who worshiped Leo as a god were almost second only to the goblin gods had the courage to stop in front of the knights.

"Your Majesty, there are more envoys from all over the world in Pritz City today, and it is difficult for the small city of Pritz to arrange for so many knights to enter, so please also ask your knights to be stationed outside the city. Leo said to Cardinal Owen without humility or arrogance.

Seeing Leo's request to himself with a reasonable expression, Cardinal Owen rolled his eyes and agreed, and entered Pritz City accompanied by Leo. When all the emissaries entered the city, the goblin soldiers hurriedly closed the gates and shut out the Knights of the Holy Judgment.

Although there were many envoys from the allied forces of various countries, the viewing hall prepared by Leo was large enough, so it was not crowded. The establishment of a small principality did not take too many cumbersome steps, except that Prince Nick, who had arrived from the royal city, as the suzerain, agreed to the establishment of the principality by Leo and declared the legitimacy of his founding act. Then it was Leo who came to speak for his principality.

Just as Leo walked up to the rostrum, among the envoys who watched the ceremony, the envoy of the Paris Empire stood up and said to Leo who was about to speak: "Your Excellency Duke Leo, on behalf of the Paris Empire, I send a strong protest to Your Excellency, this Plitz City was forcibly taken away from the hands of the Paris Empire by you by disgraceful means, and now you are using this land to build a country, this is simply a banditry!"

Leo on the rostrum was about to be laughed at by the reversal of black and white by the Palliste envoy, and he immediately retorted: "This envoy Mr. I don't know if I have studied continental history and geography, the Pritz city where we are located has been subordinate to the Kingdom of Lorraine since ancient times, and with the consent of the Lorraine royal family, I have the establishment of the city of Pritz and independent military, government affairs, Tax independence, as for the Paris Empire, as for the inglorious role of the invaders who forcibly snatched the city of Pritz from the Kingdom of Lorraine, and now the return of the city of Pritz shows my legitimacy!"

"Hmph, Duke Leo, don't forget, the Knights of the Divine Judgment of the Sect of Light are just outside the city, and the troops of the allied forces of various countries will soon arrive in Pritz City, at this time, you dare to quibble so much, who gave you so much confidence?" the envoy said threateningly.

Leo raised his eyebrows and his eyes widened, and shouted loudly to the envoy of Paris and all the messengers present with a resolute and righteous awe-inspiring momentum: "Then let you see my faith!"

As soon as Leo's shout fell, the earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves sounded from far to near from outside the viewing hall, and a cavalry riding a white horse galloped into the viewing hall at high speed.
