In the banquet hall of the royal palace, a grand dinner is being held, which is a celebratory feast. Twenty days earlier, the Kingdom of Gilgias had won a decisive victory in the war with the Kingdom of Bretan.

Tens of thousands of Kyrgidian soldiers spent ten days digging a five-mile man-made channel on the east side of the Verne River, channeling the waters of Verne into a col that washed away the rocky mountain facing the Red Flame Plain, and then swept towards the Red Flame Plain.

The 400,000 Bretian army was scattered by the flood, and the Gilgidian king Landry Pars and 200,000 royal troops were rescued in the Red Flame Fortress, and the Gilgidian kingdom won the war without a single soldier, and the commander of the Bretan army, Voncis Varouan, suffered his first defeat on the battlefield.

According to intelligence, the Bretan army lost nearly half of its soldiers in the flood, and Vonsis returned to the Bretan Kingdom with the remaining 200,000 troops through the occupied Thundering Fortress on the west side of Lake Van Xin.

The three-month war between the kingdoms of Gilgia and Bretan came to an end, and the king of Gilgias, Landry Pars, returned to the royal capital, Cangyun City.

The war is over, the Kingdom of Gilgia has won, and the next thing is, of course, a reward for meritorious deeds.

Although Duke Dulaika lost the Thundering Fortress, he led his army to rescue the besieged King of Gilgias, so Landry decided not to give his uncle any reward, and certainly not to punish him.

The plan to bring the waters of the Verne into the col to crush the Bretan army was proposed to the Duke of Duraica by Cicela Miró, the representative of the Territory Army of Dawn, and King Landry Pars was supposed to reward Cicela, but Cicela informed the king that the idea was conceived by a soldier of the Territory Army named Claude from the Purple Sun.

In the side hall of the palace banquet hall, in a small room in the side hall, Meng Fan stood in the small room, in front of Meng Fan stood the prime minister Halsen, the attendant officer Tarria, the representative of the territory army of Liyang City, Cicela Miró, and in the direction facing Meng Fan sat a red-haired man, Landry Pars, the king of Gilgias.

"Cicela, this Claude you are talking about is not very impressive. Rand got up from his chair with a smile, "Your Majesty, a person's talent has nothing to do with what he looks like. Cicela Miró said respectfully.

"Haha, you're right, you can't judge people. Landry walked up to Meng Fan, "Claude Kuru, thank you. Landry Pars of the Kingdom of Gilgia pressed the shoulder of the black-haired man in front of him and said sincerely.

"Your Majesty, as a Kyrgidian, it is my duty to be able to serve Your Majesty and the Kingdom of Gilgia loyally. Meng Fan hurriedly replied.

"Hehe, Claude, you have indeed shared a lot of worries for the Kingdom of Gilgia and for me this time. Landry patted Meng Fan on the shoulder, then turned and walked to the table.

"Claude, I have never been stingy with meritorious people, you have excellent insight and wonderful ideas, I want to understand your thoughts first, do you want to join the royal army as a general, or do you want to be knighted and landed?" Landry looked at the dark-haired man in front of him.

"Your Majesty, I don't have any martial arts and magic, I can provide a little strategy at most in the army, don't hide it from Your Majesty, I'm a very timid person, my legs will be weak when I get to the battlefield... Your Majesty, my family has been civilians for generations, if possible, I hope that starting with me, the Kuru family can no longer be so ordinary. Meng Fan said.

"So, Claude, you want to be a noble lord. Landry clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I just expect it to be better..." Meng Fan was worried that he had revealed the desire in his heart too obviously, so he wanted to explain.

"Claude, I have said that I will not be stingy with the rewards of those who have merit, and the plan you have come up with has helped me defeat the Bretans, and I will give you what you want. Landry interrupted Meng Fan's words with a wave of his hand.

"Halson, what land in the kingdom is suitable for being given to Claude Kurou right now?" Landry Pars of the Gilgidian Kingdom turned his gaze to Halson, the prime minister who was standing on the side.

"Your Majesty, Claude's hometown is in Blackstone City in the northeast of the kingdom, when the Bretan army invaded from the northeast of the kingdom, Blackstone City was occupied by the Bretan army, and the Bahrain family, the lord of Blackstone City, was all killed by the Bretan people, and now there is no lord in Blackstone City..."

"Black Rock City... Well, how big is the territory of Black Rock City?" Landry thought for a moment and asked, "Back to Your Majesty, this territory is centered on Black Rock City, including a radius of more than two hundred miles around it, and in addition to Black Rock City, there are three small towns and twelve villages in the territory, with a population of about 70,000. Halson continued.

After a moment of silence, King Landry raised his head, "Claude, I will give you the title of earl and make you the lord of Black Rock City, are you willing to accept it?" Landry looked at the black-haired man in front of him.

Meng Fan held back the joy and excitement in his heart, "Claude Kurou thanks Your Majesty for the gift. Meng Fan knelt down on his knees and respectfully expressed his gratitude to the king.

After deciding on the reward for the hero of the war, Claude Kuru, King Landry Pars of Gilgias, led Meng Fan into the palace banquet hall, where hundreds of royal ministers, nobles, and army generals turned to face the king who walked out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Kingdom of Gilgias has defeated the invaders of the Kingdom of Bretan this time, and I sincerely thank you for your courage and strength in this war..." King Landry's words were met with applause.

"Tonight, I would like to introduce you to a new nobleman, who is the greatest hero of this war, Claude Kuru, who came up with the plan to attack the Bretans by water, and it was this strategy that allowed us to defeat the 400,000 Bretin army without a single soldier, and defeated the 'undefeated god of war' Vonsis boasted by the Bretan people, and I decided to give Claude the title of Earl of Claude and the territory of Black Rock City to Claude. Landry announced loudly to the guests in the ballroom.

"Salute you, Count Claude..." "Lord Count, good job..." The banquet hall burst into applause mixed with praise and praise.

Meng Fan, who was standing beside the king, felt the feeling of being watched by the eyes of adoration and envy, and the applause and praise in the banquet hall made the blood in Meng Fan's body seem to burn.

Yes, he is no longer an obscure spectator, power and wealth, Meng Fan has taken the first step towards what he desires, a beautiful step.
