Chapter 178: The Future Valkyrie's Choice

Kelsey didn't expect that this Viscount Golden Rose would trust her so much, in her imagination, even if she didn't have to start as a small soldier (how to say that she was also a tenth-level knight), at most she could mix with a middle-level officer such as a squadron leader, who knows, this is almost a step to the sky, and she directly became the second-in-command of the adjutant of the fortress garrison!

"Does that mean that Viscount Golden Rose also has a crush on me......? , Phew~Phew," Kelsey took a sip, and then thought: "It shouldn't be for this reason, he doesn't look like those lustful nobles, well, his eyes are very clear, besides, the female elf next to him has a different relationship with him at a glance, heh, her eyes are also very vigilant." ”

The Elijah garrison was composed of three thousand troops in Lin Feng's plan, two of which were formed by recruiting recruits from Nanlin Island, they were all released by Lin Feng as civilian slaves in the past few years, and their family assets were all on Nanlin Island, so their loyalty was also the highest;

The other thousand-man team is made up of Mason County natives, who are basically defeated soldiers, and this loyalty is maintained at the level of food for soldiers, but in order to better deal with those local residents, they are also essential, because if you want to do something well, let these local snakes come forward to get twice the result with half the effort.

Lin Feng specially held an inauguration ceremony for Kelsey to successfully take over the Elijah garrison, and announced in public that she would be responsible for the security and defense of Elijah Fortress in the future.

The reason why the person to guard the fortress was decided so quickly was also because Lin Feng was ready to officially declare war on Kevin Mason, and his army of 30,000 had already been assembled.

Viscount Golden Rose had been leading the army for three full days, and the fortress of Elijah had calmed down a lot because of the absence of those large armies, and Kelsey returned to her new home, a large house not far from the fortress chamber, after inspecting the various points of the fortress as usual.

Her parents and brother had been taken over from the resettlement areas in the valley, even though the houses in the valley had been built to house the indigenous people, and were much better than the dilapidated wooden houses they had lived in.

However, compared to the big house that her lord assigned to her now, the conditions are much worse, and it is safer to live here, after all, there are still many foreign refugees mixed in the resettlement area, and there are many petty thefts on weekdays.

Kelsey's parents have been very happy since their daughter came back, on the one hand, they haven't seen each other for too long, and they miss it very much, and on the other hand, their daughter is now a level 10 knight, just a little bit like a noble knight, well, they don't know that this "just a little" gap, sometimes it's just a moat-like existence.

"Kes, are you back?" her mother, who used to call her by her nickname, "go and wash up, and supper will be ready soon." ”

"Okay, Mom," Kelsey then asked, "what about Daddy and Rom?"

"They're in the backyard, you don't have to worry about them," her mother said in a complaining tone, "I don't know what kind of nerves Rom has, I have to let your father teach him the basics of martial arts, really, now that I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I put all my thoughts on it." ”

Kelsey smiled knowingly, his father was only a fourth-level warrior, and the reason why she dreamed of becoming a great knight was also because of his father's influence, I don't know what came to mind, Kelsey suddenly sighed, and turned around and walked towards the bathroom.

"Sister, sister, I can hold on for half an hour more today," said her brother, little Rom, to her, "I will one day become a knight like you!"

Kelsey smiled, gently touched his red little face, and said, "Then you have to keep working hard, well, you have to eat more, then you will grow faster!"

Even so, Kelsey also knew that her father might support little Rom, but her mother would definitely oppose it, and after Mason County was raided and plundered by the orcs, many refugees fled here, and her mother had seen too much of the miserable situation of their bereavement, so her mother now only wanted to keep her children with her.

After dinner, Kelsey thought about it, but decided to tell the story and let his parents share their opinions, "When the lord left, he wanted to recruit me as his vassal knight, but I was still a little hesitant, well, he said that he would get my reply when we met again." ”

"Aren't you his knight now?" asked little RΓΆm curiously, "now in Elijah Fortress, my sister is the most effective talker!"

"It's different," seeing her parents were also puzzled, she then explained: "I'm just a knight hired by Viscount Golden Rose now, he only needs to pay me a fixed annuity and a monthly stipend, and when the employment contract expires, we can both decide whether to renew it again, well, this employment system has fewer restrictions, for me, it's relatively free." ”

"And to become his vassal knight, you need to swear allegiance to him and his family," Kelsey was embarrassed to say, not only to her, but also to her descendants, "At the same time, he will also give me a hereditary knighthood, of course, after having a knighthood, my annuity salary will be reduced a lot." ”

"Territory, hereditary knight domain?" her father reacted first, and said excitedly: "Then I must agree, haha, I didn't expect my descendants to become hereditary nobles one day! Oh my!"

It's no wonder he's so excited, after all, although Kelsey's previous identity was also a knight, it was only a level stage of a war professional, and in terms of social status, that is, slightly higher than those ordinary civilians, of course, if Kelsey was a big knight above the eleventh level, then her status would be similar to the social status of small and medium-sized nobles, after all, the big knight was not so easy to break through.

However, those vassal knights who were canonized by the superior lord and given hereditary knight lords have a much higher social status than those wandering knights who receive salaries, although they are only the lowest nobles, but as long as they cross the threshold of hereditary nobility, there will always be hope to continue to climb up, right?

If Kelsey was a male knight, she would not hesitate to agree, but she was a woman, so she thought a little too much, and besides, even if she obtained a hereditary knighthood, she could only leave it to her descendants to inherit, and not to little Rohm or his descendants, although Kelsey did not know any noble inheritance laws, but as long as Viscount Golden Rose did not go crazy, he would not allow that situation to happen.

Looking at her father's excited smile, suddenly, the little trouble in Kelsey's heart disappeared, yes, there was no need to deliberately ask their opinions, now she was no longer confused, she already knew what she should choose.
