Olivia looked cautiously at her half-sister and whispered, "... I inquired about the news from the chief of the guard, the Knight of Barrow, who had been kept silent, and only recently relented to inform me that the coalition of nobles on the west coast had suffered a crushing defeat a month ago, and that the army had no intention of fighting and fled to all sides, so that in just one month all parts of the country had fallen one after another, and the remnants of the resistance were no longer large..."

Hearing these news, the woman's face turned pale, her hands clutched tightly on the sheets, slender green tendons appeared, she forcibly suppressed her emotions that were about to explode, and said in a voice trembling with anger: "What are those local nobles who don't listen to orders doing, who resolutely resisted the spirit of the Wang army in the first place?

"The royal family gave them preferential treatment at the beginning, but they didn't accept it! Now they are subjugated to the feet of foreign invaders, is it so comfortable? When they are stripped of their titles by the Del family and reduced to the commoner class, they will really regret their selfishness and stupidity! No, these sinners still have a role, and the father should send someone to contact them, so that they can fight back against the Del family..."

"Sister, sister!" Olivia hugged the demonic Daini, it was hard to believe that this was the heroic sister of the past, and she said with a crying voice, "Don't say any more, those things are too far away from us, we have no room to interfere at all, besides... Besides, the nobles of the West Coast have been wiped out by that family!"

Dani, who was muttering to herself, was stunned, and there was a trance that the target had disappeared, "Why didn't my father send an army to exert pressure, didn't the three dukes already say that they would withdraw their troops?"

"Hmm...."

Looking at Olivia, who dodged her eyes and finally lowered her head, Daini understood, it turned out that what she said earlier was to comfort herself, the Hawke royal family had not defeated the three dukes until now, and where did they have the extra strength to deter the jackals who were put into the house by themselves.

However, the other party's act of exterminating the nobles of a place is actually a big taboo, and the other flying wing nobles must be vigilant and uneasy, and dare not lean over like grass on the wall.

Knock, knock, the maid knocked on the door and asked tentatively, "Princess Dinny, is Princess Olivia here?"

Before Dini could speak, Olivia spoke early, "Ruby, I'll talk about it when I get back in the evening." ”

"Princess, this is His Majesty's order, Ruby doesn't dare to slack off, don't embarrass me. ”

You can feel the anxiety of the little maid through the voice, the servant will be executed if he disobeys the king's order, and Olivia can't help but feel a little embarrassed at this time.

"Olivia, let her come in. Dani stared at Olivia until she nodded in agreement.

After getting permission, the maid Ruby hurriedly opened the door and walked into the room, and found Olivia's place with the dim light, and didn't care about Princess Daini, who would go crazy next to her, and hurriedly saluted, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the first servant just sent an order from His Majesty, and in two days, a distinguished guest will arrive in the royal capital, and the royal family will hold a banquet, and all adult princesses must attend." ”

Olivia's eyes widened, this is the destined fate of the princess, although it may not be herself who is chosen this time, but when this moment comes, she will still feel very nervous.

“..... Ruby, do you know who the guest is?" Dinney seemed to think of something, eager to find out.

"I don't know, but the first attendant said the other party's last name, it seems... It seems to be Del...."

As the words fell, Dani and Olivia couldn't help but look at each other in a daze, and their hearts were filled with hatred and fear.....

........

The county of Van Dagon, adjacent to the royal domain, is not outstanding in military and economic strength, but flourishing in culture and art.

Because the three dukes declared neutrality when they were fighting with the royal family, and they were not too threatening in themselves, the three dukes had no reason to attack, and this small county gradually became a haven for refuge, and merchants who smelled the benefits also brought goods to this land to trade with the people sent by the three dukes.

Coming out of the west coast, Charon and the others passed through two dukedoms, and as long as they crossed Van Dagon again, they could enter the realm of the royal realm.

The cavalry galloped across the undulating fields, the smoke and dust billowing behind them, and their banners and armor were all black, as if only this depth could reveal their character.

They were swept away by the dust, and the sound of horses' hooves caused the birds in the bushes to frighten and flapp, flapping their wings and fleeing, and the green weeds were swept down by the strong wind as the mighty procession passed.

"The village ahead rests. ”

The young man at the head silently watched the village in the distance, the wooden stake fence was built into a simple fortification, and the six lookout posts were scattered in all directions, and what was seen behind was curling smoke, and the place where peace could be achieved in the chaos of war would be guarded by some force, but this level alone could not stop them.

The people on the lookout seemed to have spotted their tracks, and were ringing bells and drums to alert the inhabitants of the village, and after hearing the sound, the old and weak women and children quickly retreated to the back, ready to run to the mountains and forests behind the village, while the young men took up their weapons and went to the open space in front of the village to assemble.

Led by three knights in full body armor, they went to the gate of the village together, and there have been several similar situations, once the werewolves who broke into the village in the middle of the night, and the few times the people who became bandits in the troubled times, they successfully repelled the enemy again and again, and believed that this time they would definitely achieve victory.

However, the three knights and the sentinels who looked into the distance did not think so, this time the whole village would be destroyed, and the enemy was not a scattered army, but a regular army of size, and some of them only had scythes and hoes for farm work.

The unknown cavalry came like a black cloud, very different from the deserters who had wandered here, and the momentum was incomparable, and as the cavalry got closer and closer, almost everyone could see the size of the enemy.

Panic began to spread, if it wasn't clear that the family would not be able to protect the retreat home, maybe someone really wanted to turn around and run away, although everyone forced themselves to suppress their fears at this moment, but there was little fighting spirit left. Even the three knights in the lead had ugly faces.

"Knight Eli, can you tell where they came from?" the knight in earthy brown armor asked, waiting with bated breath for an answer.

The knight who was asked was an adventurer in the past, active in flying wings, but after thinking for a while, he still shook his head, saying that he couldn't tell the other party's origin from the other party's banner and armor style, which was not at all like the style of the flying wing cavalry.

"When you come, first ask them what their purpose is? As long as they don't enter the village, they will be promised on any terms. ”

It was the aristocratic knight who usually had the toughest attitude who said this, and it was obvious that the grim situation made him put aside his so-called self-esteem and pride, and the other two had no opinion when he said this.

The three of them took the lead in climbing the high platform built of wooden stakes and shouted: "Anyone who comes stops, anyone who tries to break into this village without permission will be regarded as an enemy by us, and we will fight back to the death!"

"In the war years, I hope you can understand our approach, of course, if you have difficulties, we can provide any help we can....."

However, as if they hadn't heard the sound, Charon and his party still rushed forward on their own, a gesture that made the hearts of the three knights sink.

The kind words and persuasion did not have any effect, then it was only a battle, and the knight of Dora shouted to the people below, "The people behind the gate quickly retreat and prepare for battle!"

Before the silent cavalry burst open the gate, the three knights shot arrows with their bows at the same time, without checking the results, and at the same time turned and jumped away from the place.

The three arrows were picked up by the powerful cavalry, swirling and rising in the air, and then flipped and fell.

Ignoring the thick wooden gates, the cavalry rushed straight through with their spears, roaring and flying sawdust into the village.
