Chapter 68: Prestige
Now almost everyone in the entire Iron Fist Castle saw the scene just now, and each of them looked at Ryan with awe in their eyes, but that "fear" far exceeded "respect".
Now that Vivien has stepped into the power struggle of the entire Cassano Plains, it is impossible for Vivien to stay out of the situation, and even if she renounces her position as lord and leaves, her enemies will desperately hunt her down for fear of her return. Although Ryan is unfamiliar with politics, he also knows that Vivien's best and only destination is to become the overlord of the entire Cassano Plain.
First of all, with lightning speed, ruthlessly eliminate all the forces that oppose him in the family, and then make every effort to train elite soldiers to defeat the other two families, and at the same time, he must keenly judge the situation and establish good relations with other forces on the mainland, so that they can remain neutral as much as possible and do not participate in the power struggle here.
If necessary, we must not hesitate to cut off the tentacles of other forces infiltrating here, only in this way can we firmly control the Cassano Plain, and only by using this place as a foundation to occupy a place on this chaotic continent, and only by becoming a pivotal force on the continent can we truly live a stable life.
Otherwise, Vivien and the entire Emilio family will be caught in an endless war, and it will be difficult for him to leave Vivien and return to the imperial capital to realize his plans. Besides, if Vivien is in power, Ryan believes that this beautiful lord will not fall to the side of Seke City under his influence, which can also help the imperial capital to worry a little.
Although Ryan hates politics and intrigues with others, now that he has become Faraz's boyfriend, Ryan also knows that it is impossible for him to avoid these things, and what he can do now is to try to relieve a little pressure on Faraz and Orlando. At the same time, if the imperial capital can maintain a good relationship, it will also be a comfortable thing for Vivian, the future overlord of the Cassano Plains.
"Take it. Vivien finally got Ryan a fragrant barbecue, and Ryan took the roast that was still dripping grease, and sat casually on the chair brought to him by the guards of Tekken Castle, enjoying a good meal. There was no need for Vivien to tell her any more, the guards of Iron Fist Castle had already moved all the guys who were all dining.
The chair that Ryan sat on first was the one that Toby had used to use, and the white animal skin that lay on it alone was worth a thousand gold; the wooden table in front of Ryan was full of all kinds of fresh fruits, and the Bordeaux wine that Toby had feasted on that night; beside Ryan, four strong guards held up a huge umbrella for him to shield Ryan from the sun; and behind Ryan's side, two good-looking maids stood with their hands down, and whenever Ryan's eyes saw anything on the table, the two handmaidens would walk over quickly and help Ryan take itγ
Ryan didn't really like this kind of enjoyment, but he also knew that he had enough prestige in the Iron Fist Castle now, and in order to maintain this prestige, he had to use a similar method, otherwise if Ryan was still as humble as before, it would make everyone around him feel uneasy.
Vivien waved her hand lightly, motioning for the two maids to leave, and she obediently stood beside Ryan and assumed the role of maid. Seeing his lord go up to serve Ryan in person, the people around him breathed a sigh of relief, in their opinion, the reason why Ryan, a powerful magician, came here was entirely because of Vivian, and as long as Vivian was still in the lord's position, Emilio's people would not be abandoned by Ryan, and naturally they would not have to worry about their tragic fate.
Ryan's meal was very simple, except for Vivien's own barbecue, he didn't eat anything else at all, but in the eyes of others, he was secretly glad that Vivien had become his lord, and even many people whispered on the side: "No matter how delicious the food is, it is not worthy of the identity of a powerful magician, don't you see that Mr. Magician doesn't care about it at all? Except for the food cooked by our lord himself, he doesn't even bother to look at it?"
People are like this, once they have any thoughts in their hearts, no matter what they see or hear, they will subconsciously think and connect with their hopes or fears, and when they recite a thing, they will also add their own imagination to make the description of the whole thing more full and credible.
So when the sun goes down in the evening, the whole version of the story has become: "Vivien was lucky enough to become the handmaiden of a powerful magician during her adventure, and in order to save the Emilio family, Vivien begged her master to help, and so there was an epic story these days!"
When Vivien knew that the story was getting more and more outrageous, instead of stopping it, she secretly opened the door for the story to spread, and when it was to boost morale and set up defenses, Vivien would make impassioned speeches from time to time, and deliberately mislead everyone with specious words, so that the story could continue to spread.
At the foot of the mountain, Adela had to retreat a full thousand meters before setting up camp because the will to attack was completely destroyed by a level 7 magic from Ryan, even so, Adela still arranged three times as many sentry posts, as long as he found any vision in the sky, the whole army immediately retreated.
If Ryan led a carefully selected team to sneak down the mountain at night, he would definitely wipe out Adela's army, after all, there were only seven or eight hundred people over there, and Ryan didn't need to use the newly mastered magic array at all, as long as he released the fireball spell with "multiple spells", the soldiers in that improvised camp would not even have a chance to escape.
But Ryan gave up this plan after weighing it again and again, after all, now Vivien's inheritance of the lord's position is too short, and now the enemy is current, and he has greatly boosted his morale, just so that Vivien can use this opportunity to train troops and establish authority in this family, if the enemy is defeated too quickly, maybe in the blink of an eye, there will be some guys who have good scars and forget the pain to jump out and point fingers.
When Vivien really has a loyal army, even if there are really those blind guys, Vivien can easily eradicate them with her own strength, and all she has to do is to always stand behind Vivian and become a deterrent force, after all, Ryan's wish is to be with his beloved, not the so-called power.
