General Kandelun held a grand welcome dinner in the lobby of the hotel, and this unprecedented crisis from the orc empire had basically been resolved, so the atmosphere of the dinner was relaxed and cheerful, and everyone's faces were filled with relaxed smiles.

"Generals!" Prince Conrad, after welcoming General Kandelun and the generals of the Northern Army, picked up the "Lonkebiz" wine in front of him, strolled out of his seat, and walked to Kanderen at the other end of the long table.

"I really didn't expect that our brave Northern Army soldiers would not only defend those orcs from the country for so many years, but also build this frontier military town so well, which is really an amazing achievement. The fact that I and I were able to enjoy the special food in such a beautiful and comfortable hotel is a good example of this. For this reason, on behalf of the Gallente family, on behalf of Claire the Great, I salute the generals and the officers and men of the Northern Army. Cheers!"

The two delicate goblets touched each other, and Prince Conrad and General Kandelun nodded in salute as they drank the wine from the glasses. The clever and diligent waiter took the glass, filled the empty glass, and returned it to Prince Conrad.

"This time, the orcs have launched an all-out war, instead of the simple 'spring hunt' in the past, a fact that Claire the Great and the military department know. With the overwhelming superiority of the orcs, we lost two fortresses, which is normal, and if I were there, I might not be able to stop it for that long. Now, our hero alone has captured their commander from their army and forced the arrogant guys to retreat north of the Kas River, earning us the initiative in negotiations. Colonel Aragon, I would like to toast you on behalf of the Empire, you are the hero of the Gallent Empire, cheers!"

Liang Ke felt a little awkward sitting among the real magnates of the empire, originally he didn't want to attend this dinner, but Prince Conrad specially told Kan Delun that he, a heroic figure, must attend, so Liang Ke had to come, but chose a remote corner to sit, helplessly, he still did not escape this stylized entertainment. His Royal Highness the Prince personally toasted, he quickly raised his glass and saluted respectfully, and then took a sip. Prince Conrad frowned slightly when he saw Liang Ke's reaction so flat, and then his brows furrowed, as if he understood something.

His Royal Highness turned back to the top of the long table, leaned on the huge corner of the table and said in a loud voice: "Everyone, the empire will not forget the exploits of the heroes, Your Majesty has signed a commendation order for the soldiers of the Northern Army, and when you are triumphant, Her Majesty Claire will personally announce the reward for everyone." ”

Prince Conrad looked around at him, and although the general of the Northern Army tried to exercise restraint, the joy in his heart could not be completely concealed, and he smiled and continued: "Here I can reveal some information first, our heroic Colonel Aragon will be awarded the title of baron, and will be given a fairly good fief as a fief. ”

His Royal Highness the Prince said lightly, but the listeners were in an uproar, and for a while, everyone raised their glasses and said hello to Liang Ke. On this continent, the difference between nobles and commoners is whether a person has a title and whether he has his own fiefdom. A noble knight can obtain a high position through his own efforts, and even be promoted to a general, commanding an army. But that only shows that he has a certain amount of military power in a certain area, can receive a good salary in the military department, and can also have some private business as a source of income for the family. On the surface, he is much more beautiful than ordinary people, but in fact, he is not an aristocrat, and the aristocratic class will not really accept such a commoner minister. The pride of the nobility came from their fiefdoms. The official position can be temporarily feuded, but the land is limited, so when a person obtains a noble title and obtains a piece of his own fief, then his identity immediately becomes the lord of a land, he can collect taxes in his own territory, he can establish a certain scale of private army, and he can formulate a series of administrative regulations in the territory, in a sense, the nobles with fiefs are the kings of the countries within the country.

Liang Ke, a passerby, didn't know much about the meaning of a nobleman, and he didn't care if he could be a big landowner, so when those generals toasted around him, he just smiled politely and nodded. Beside Prince Conrad, Miss Annabelle blinked her beautiful sapphire eyes and stared intently at this handsome, upright and special man. This officer is indeed special, not only is he magnificent and heroic, but his black eyes are so far-reaching and deep that it seems that the slightest glance will make people drown in them. His temperament is so calm, his every movement is so natural, without a trace of the sons and daughters of the imperial capital. The generals seemed to have a great deal of respect for the lowest-ranking colonel officer, as if it was not just because he had captured one of the orc princes. She had never seen a man so calm in front of his beauty, not even that he had ever peeked at her, yes, he hadn't peeked at him, because she had been paying attention to him. This made her feel a little embarrassed, and it also made her even more curious, could his black eyes not contain my beauty?

Miss Annabelle was holding her cheeks, and the princess touched her arm lightly, pulled her up to take her leave, and returned to the luxurious room that Aunt Raya had arranged for the princess.

"That Aragorn is such a wonderful fellow!" said the princess, sitting in front of the huge make-up mirror, as she asked the maid to help remove the cumbersome jewelry.

"Hmph, an arrogant fellow, I don't see anything magical. Miss Annabelle kicked off the expensive heels on her feet, jumped barefoot into the large fluffy bed, and lay on the edge of the bed looking at the princess in the mirror.

The princess looked at her daughter in the mirror and smiled, "Where is the magic? From the moment we even entered the gates of Cape Rambet, there were almost everywhere about the heroic deeds of this young man. This war seems to be his stage alone, I heard that he comes from a small village in Binuk, not only is he excellent in martial arts, but he is also a powerful spiritual mage. He also had a team of powerful trolls as his attendants, how could those filthy, ugly, and violent fellows obey the command of a human? ”

"Trolls, are there really such terrible creatures? I've seen descriptions of them in books, it's incredible, hasn't the light of the Holy Cult incinerated all evil?

"Annabelle! Any existence on this continent is a gift from God, and even if they cannot receive God's blessing, God still gives them the right to walk in the sun. If you let those priests hear this, they will suspect that you are questioning God's authority, and if you are used by your father's political enemies, we will fall into passivity, and we will speak in the future, understand?"

Annabelle grimaced, spat out her pink and round tongue, and didn't care about the princess's words. The princess shook her head fondly at her daughter in the mirror, and continued: "There is much more to this young man's magic, you can see the huge war equipment in the city! he borrowed them from the dwarves of Narondo! Those arrogant fellows have never been so generous, once upon a time, our quartermaster could not buy some fine armor and war equipment from Naronto, because those dwarves are not short of gold coins at all, they only need rare ores. This time, I don't know what method that Aragorn used to borrow so many priceless things from those stingy guys. Isn't he magical?"

Annabelle's two lotus-like arms supported her delicate cheeks, and her two tender white feet hooked their toes, swaying behind her, playful and cute. Her eyes blinked, her eyes rolled, she rolled over and sat on the edge of the bed, and said unconvinced, "It's nothing! maybe...... Maybe he bought it with his own money, and bragged that the dwarves lent it to him, so maybe that's it!"

"Hehehe!" said the princess with a smile: "You, don't use your brains, such a huge amount of military expenses, even your Uncle Claire can't take it out at once, let alone such a young man." Don't be unconvinced, his magic doesn't stop there, just outside the gate where we entered the city, he took his personal guards and a team of cavalry to block the surprise attack of the orcs and 60,000 wolf cavalry, and kept those precious battle equipment. Don't say that he is still so young, even if you count all the imperial generals, how many people dare to lead a cavalry squadron to break into the charging formation of the orcs 60,000 wolf cavalry? The most important quality is to be brave and decisive, and you will understand it when you reach your mother's age. ”

"Is he the only one who is the bravest? Didn't the male classmates of Jonah College all swear to give their lives for His Majesty and the Empire at any time?"

"That kind of oath is just a slogan, how many can be fearless in the face of death? Your father just told me that I am afraid that apart from this Aragorn, there is only General Grufend. Hey, that poor sister of yours, not only did she hurt others, but she also hurt herself, and even more so that the Gallent Empire lost a good general. ”

"Hmph, what's wrong with Sister Tan Spin pursuing her lover? It's all that Grufender who doesn't know how to lift ......."

"Shut up!" the princess interrupted her daughter in a loud voice. "There is nothing wrong with pursuing love, but at the same time, you must understand the object of your pursuit, know how to respect the person you love, and use the conspiracy trajectory to take advantage of it, that is not love, and what you get can only be evil in the end......"

"Mother!" Annabelle had the patience to listen to her mother's preaching, hurriedly said goodnight, pouted and ran out, almost hitting His Royal Highness the Prince who had returned from the banquet.

"What's wrong with Annabelle?" Conrad asked the princess as he unbuttoned his coat, and the princess told Prince Conrad what had just been said, with a hint of concern in her words.

Conrad took off his coat, gently supported the princess's shoulders from behind, and comforted softly: "This child was born in a family like ours, and the friends around him are all noble children, so it is inevitable that there will be some superiority in his heart. This time, I brought her to this dangerous place, also to let her temporarily leave the smoky circle of friends in the imperial capital, to see the hardships of the world, and to see some things that she had not seen before, which might help her get rid of her arrogant and bad temper. ”

"I know what you're thinking, that's why I agreed to bring Annabelle with you. But I'm afraid that she didn't learn it well, but she learned the same as her sister Tan Sibin, so it would be bad. ”

"Oh?" said Conrad, taking the princess's hand and sitting on the edge of the bed, "why do you say that?"

"You! A father is careless, and you don't see that our Annabelle kept staring at that Aragorn at the dinner, and although she said that he was worthless, she probably liked the young man in her heart. ”

"Hahaha! What's wrong with that, that Aragorn is a very good young man, at least, much better than the playboys who only gather around his daughter and talk about it. It has been many years since the Gallant Empire has been knighted to a commoner, and besides, he is so young, I admire him very much, and I am very optimistic about his future. ”

"However, I have heard that he had a wife, but he was killed by a great merchant in Uwang, which is pitiful. ”

"This ...... Maybe it's a problem, God always helps the children to arrange their path, let's not interfere too much, let it be!"
