The rich fragrance fills the room, bringing a breathtaking charm. A woman's delicate pant echoed in it, with a bit of comfort and laziness.

A **, snow-white body writhing on the soft bed, it was a beautiful female surname. At this moment, her eyes were slightly closed, and she was involuntarily accepting the caress of the man on her body. Eventually, with the man's violent movements, she grabbed the sheets beneath her and screamed loudly—and then her whole body bounced up, and then collapsed like soft mud. And only then did a man leaning over her straighten up.

It was a handsome man, dashing, with long flowing hair draped down, thin lips slightly upturned, with a hint of hidden disdain and the pleasure of conquest. Those sapphire-like slender eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed inside. On the surface, this man doesn't seem to be any different from anyone else. But the ears that were slightly pointer than ordinary humans revealed from his long hair, revealing his identity.

The man once again clamped the waist of the woman under him and began to twitch hard. And this time his actions only brought the other party's wail, but the man obviously didn't care about this, he sped up again, and then snorted and poured all his ** into the other party's body. Only then did he leave satisfied, then picked up the clothes beside the bed and walked out the door.

"How's it going?"

While getting dressed, the man asked. Hearing his inquiry, the adjutant who had been waiting outside the door immediately replied.

"I'm sorry...... We haven't gotten a response yet. ”

"Well, just wait. ”

The man got dressed, carefully arranged his appearance in the mirror, and after making sure that there was no problem, he turned around and showed an elegant, graceful smile.

"What is the current situation? What does our puppeteer say?"

"This ............"

Hearing this, the adjutant was obviously a little embarrassed.

"There's no news from Lord Sidwig's side yet......... Her Royal Highness the Princess of Lintillot had conveyed an order before, but you were busy at the time...... So ........."

"Forget it, it's over anyway. ”

The half-elf turned his head, glanced at his bedroom, and shrugged his shoulders with a smile.

"So, what is the order of our Royal Highness?"

"Your Highness orders us to shrink our defenses, prepare adequate supplies, and follow Lord Sidwig's instructions to attack West once we have fully recovered the city of Orrut. Moreover, she did not give a specific date, but only said that she would act at the opportune time. ”

"This is a rarity for our Royal Highness......"

The half-elf raised an eyebrow, then licked his lips with a smile.

"But that's fine, since it's an order from Her Royal Highness, then we have to follow it in one way......... That's right. ”

Saying this, the half-elf seemed to think of something, and stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.

"I'm tired of playing with this woman, and when she wakes up, I'll take her out, I don't have a second interest in the same woman, and playing too much will only make people feel like throwing up. You should know how to fix it, right?"

"Yes...... My lord. ”

Hearing this, a layer of cold sweat immediately oozed from the adjutant's forehead, and then he wiped his forehead and then spoke.

The half-elf in front of him is none other than one of the four generals of the Sith Empire, the Messenger of the Wind - Kalan.

Few people know how such a half-elf was favored by His Majesty the King, and became the third gifted knight after Lintillot and Sidwig. However, he is very strong. Although a gifted knight, Kahlan is not good at large-scale, frontal three-dimensional attacks. However, in terms of raids, ambushes, etc., his strength is unmatched. And the most brilliant achievement was the beautiful raid in the battle against the night capital of the kingdom of Orrut.

That is almost a textbook in the raid war, in the current continent, no one can carry out a surprise attack with such a fast speed and such a ferocious way, under the condition of hard resistance to the opponent's artillery fire, and just rely on this one time to completely destroy the opponent's defense and take the center directly. Although Sidwig's troops attracted most of the firepower at that time, only a small part of the firepower was enough to damage the already sparsely numbered raiding force.

However, under Kalan's leadership, 20,000 cavalry crossed the impossible line of defense in an instant, like a storm and lightning, and captured its core in one fell swoop. And what is even more surprising is that from the beginning to the end of this battle, Karan's troops did not suffer any casualties, that is, zero losses.

It's not just this battle, since Kalan's debut, the unit he has led has never had any members killed or injured, that is, since Kalan's debut, he has been fighting with zero casualties. Until now, all the members of his army have been the soldiers he has led since his debut, and nothing has changed.

At this point, Karan can be said to be in a leading position. Although the other three gifted knights are powerful, their battles are more or less attritional. Even the forces of Lintillot or Nahias sometimes numbered tens of thousands because of the fierce battles. Not to mention Sidwig, due to her unique natural abilities, there is bound to be damage in every battle. Moreover, because of the well-known temper problems, in the combat units of the puppet division, there are also occasional "non-combat surname attrition".

As the smallest number of troops among the four heroes of the empire, the unit with the most dangerous responsibilities has been able to maintain zero casualties, which in itself proves Karan's strength. After all, his troops, although not engaged in large-scale battlefield charge-and-face duels like the other three, were like a dagger on the battlefield, stabbing the enemy in the heart from behind. Because of this, Karan has always experienced fighting more with less, and it is not difficult to remain undefeated in such a situation, but zero casualties are definitely very rare.

However, despite Kalan's brilliant record, his reputation within the Sith Empire was far less than that of the other three. The reason is very complicated, first of all, he was not originally from the Sith Empire, but it was only later that the Emperor discovered his talent and brought him to the Sith Empire, and joined the army, and he was promoted by leapfrogging, which naturally made many people dissatisfied. Second, he is not human, but half-elf. Although there is no discrimination between humans and elves, after all, they are different races, and the so-called non-our race must have different hearts, so there are many people who have a lot of complaints about this.

If the above two points can be said to be a misunderstanding, then the third point can be regarded as Karan's own fault.

He's a very person.

Although it can be regarded as a common problem of men, Karan is not so simple, I don't know why, his attitude towards women is very bad -- because he is a hybrid of elves, and naturally has a more handsome appearance than ordinary people. And this talented knight's favorite thing to do is to seduce girls everywhere and have such an ambiguous night with them, as for what to do, everyone knows, naturally it is needless to say.

If that's all there is to it, then it's hard to say anything. After all, Kahlan is one of the four heroes of the empire, handsome, and very funny, enough to impress those girls who are not deeply involved in the world. It wasn't strange to be tricked into going to bed by him, but the guy's behavior afterwards was very disgraceful - he and every woman only spent one night, and then dumped it, without exception, as neatly as throwing garbage. In the past, some nobles thought that the women were not beautiful enough, but after they paid their daughters, they immediately changed their minds. For Karan, it might just be a fun game. But for those young girls, it is ruining their lives. But there was nothing they could do about it. Kahlan himself is strong and a talented knight, and no one can stand him. The only thing he could do was to hide his daughter far away, and it was better not to let the damn bastard see it.

And Kahlan doesn't seem to be picky, as long as it's a beautiful woman, he doesn't care about the identity of the other party, so whether it's the daughter of a noble family or a woman from a commoner family, as long as he takes a fancy to it, almost none of them can escape the clutches, and every one of them is without exception, and after being played by the other party for a night, they will be abandoned like garbage.

And what everyone hates the most is that Kahlan is actually in such a situation, openly pursuing the flower of the empire, the silver king Lyntilot.

You know, unlike Kalan, a half-blood elf of unknown origin, Lintillot is deeply loved by the people of the empire, she is fair and strict, loves the people like a son, and takes care of her subordinates. Even in foreign wars, Her Royal Highness was always able to find the most suitable way to resolve disputes. Her position is very similar to Offariel's position in West, but the difference is that Offariel chose to restrain herself because of her own background and inheritance. But Her Royal Highness the princess is both political and military, and she has shown amazing talent. It can be said that she has received unanimous praise among the military department and nobles, and even civilians love her very much. In their opinion, even if Her Royal Highness the princess wants to marry, she must marry someone who can make them agree. A playboy like Kahlan is completely unqualified.

But right now, Kahlan is actually right under their noses, and it is difficult not to feel angry when he is so bold in his pursuit of such an imperial flower. Especially once, he had only climbed the window of someone else's young lady's house last night, and the next morning he had gone to the gate of Lintillot's palace with flowers to wait for her, and it was really difficult for such a shameless man to find a second one.

Luckily, however, Lintillot was apparently unimpressed by Kahlan's appearance and words, and behaved very politely and coldly, while Sidwig looked at him even more unpleasantly. This is also the only reason for everyone's relief, and even once, the military boss privately threatened that if Kahlan really dared to treat Her Royal Highness Princess Lintillot, then wait to face the anger of the entire military department!

So, within the Sith Empire, Lintillot had the highest prestige, followed by Nahias. Although Sidwig's temper is also fiery and weird, and she has a penchant for killing, as long as she doesn't touch her scales, then she can still get along. What's more, this girl is still young, and she listens to Lintillot, and more often than not, she looks more like Lintilot's subordinate than an equal general, so everyone is barely acceptable to her. But for Karan, it is completely accepted that it cannot be.

In the face of these grievances, Kahlan ignored them at all, and continued to attack Lintillot from time to time -- of course, never forgetting to play with other women by the way. It's like the woman lying on the bed today was "invited" by him from a noble family in the royal city of Orrut yesterday, but after playing all night, she was tired of it.

Therefore, hearing Karan's order, his adjutant was a little secretly bitter, after all, Karan's approach also encountered the envy of many people, especially those female surnames who were deceived by him, some of them did not marry him, some of them washed their faces with tears all day long, and some people couldn't bear this blow at all, and went completely crazy. Anyway, none of the women who came into contact with him had a good end. Therefore, it has been dealing with the trouble here for him, but it is also an equally tricky problem.

"But......... My lord, something went wrong. ”

"Minor questions?"

Karan put on his white gloves, picked up a lipstick from the dressing table, and gently applied it to his lips, then looked at his lieutenant in surprise and curiosity.

"What's the problem?"

"According to the information just received, the cavalry team that the front-line division had previously sent to the right flank defense line of the Red Fortress of West had lost contact and did not respond. ”

"When?"

"About half an hour ago, the cavalry had set out three hours earlier, and it stands to reason that they should have returned a long time ago. But when it was time to meet, there was no one to see. ”

"Right Wing Line ........."

Kahlan narrowed his eyes and stretched out his right hand, stroking his chin as he thought.

"Three hours...... I'm afraid they were completely annihilated, it's really surprising, the right flank defense line of the red fortress is their weakness...... Although the group of wastes in the front-line division is not very good, it is not that none of them can escape, is it an ambush.........? It's strange that West's army has such strength?"

At this point, Kahlan said no more, and his adjutant hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Actually, my lord, two days ago, West's right flank line was replaced, and if I've heard correctly, it's now garrisoned by the Noble Alliance. ”

"It's the rubbish who came here to die on the orders of the idiot king?"

Hearing this, Karan smiled.

"The front-line division is really capsizing in the gutter this time, and it was actually made like this by a group of guys who are not even regular soldiers, where do they still have the face to go out to meet people? What are their plans now? Shouldn't they go back to their mother in tears, I think, they must have a better way?"

"This ........."

Hearing Karan's inquiry, the adjutant hesitated before replying.

"I think they're going to report to Lord Sidwig. ”

Although they are both gifted knights, on the battlefield, there are still high and low ranks, and Kahlan is responsible for raids and ambushes, so naturally there is no way to dominate the battle. Sidwig, on the other hand, has always done this work, so she has a higher reputation than Kahran. The same is true of class. Moreover, the military has always been unpleasant to Kalan, so naturally they will not go to him for help.

"Our lovely young lady will definitely not take the complaints of the idiots of the front-line divisions in the eyes, and maybe there will be a few 'non-standing team surnames attrition'. ”

Kahlan said with a sneer, then walked to the window, where his lieutenant immediately came up to him and helped him pull up the curtains from the window.

"But, the noble coalition...... I've got some interesting information. ”

Thinking of this, Kahlan immediately pondered. Although Sidwig didn't tell Kahlan about his deal with Yuren, the Sith Empire's intelligence network is also not vegetarian, not to mention that what happened between Judy and the Mobius family a few years ago is so conspicuous that it is difficult for the Sith Empire not to notice. And Kalan, as one of the Four Horsemen of Heavenly Damnation, naturally has channels to get this information. Of course, he already knew that right now in the Red Fortress, there was a nobleman with a group of knights' subordinates, and these knights were not ordinary people, they were dragon knights, dragon knights who had not appeared on the continent for a long time.

It's really interesting, what kind of nobles have such strength? According to the pre-war information, there should be no such power among the nobles in the West Kingdom, but for now, it seems that this is not the case, but it doesn't matter, in this way, it may be more interesting.

"Order the third and fifth squads to get ready to go, I want to see ...... What the hell are those guys capable of? ”

"Is that good, sir?"

Hearing Karan's order, his adjutant was shocked.

"You're a commander, so you don't say a word and go straight to the front line, in case something happens........."

"Nothing will happen. ”

Kahlan stretched out the index finger of his right hand and shook it gently. A smug and leisurely smile appeared on his face.

"I'm idle anyway, and there's not much to do lately, and our lovely Miss Sidwig has spared no effort in asking her sister, and she doesn't seem to think much of my abilities, so it's good to be more active than to sit here—just to exercise after dinner." ”

Indeed, although nominally, this is indeed managed by two gifted knights, but out of extreme disgust for Karan, Sidwig basically never cares about him, and will not assign him any tasks. And Kahlan was also satisfied, so there were no problems on either side. Right now, he wanted to go out and about, and he wouldn't want to inform Sidwig.

"Go and get ready at once, I'm going to leave at dusk...... You know what I mean. ”

"Yes, sir. ”
