Chapter 5: The Promise with Thea
Anlena looked at Via with fire-filled eyes and said, "You got into my skirt again?"
Via said, "Ann Lina, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info I don't know how I can get into your skirt when I fall asleep at night. Don't worry, I didn't see your blue panties. ā
Anlena said, "I'm going to kill you!"
Via was taken aback and said, "Ann Lina, don't, I'm joking with you." ā
At this time, Via noticed that Bai Xue, a little civet cat, was also lying on the bed, with her belly up and her four legs spread, as if she were a person, lying on the bed and sleeping. Bai Xue's belly is still covered with a quilt.
Via felt that Bai Xue looked so cute. Via took the quilt off Bai Xue's body, looked at Bai Xue's belly, and looked at the place between Bai Xue's legs. Via discovers that the snow is a mother's.
Via said, "Ann Lina, it's female. ā
Anlena said, "Yes, mother." ā
At this moment, the sleeping Snow Bai woke up and saw Via and Ann Lina. Wei Ya found that the white snow actually showed a shy expression.
Via wondered if he was mistaken, how could a little civet cat have such a shy look.
Bai Xue flipped over, threw herself into Ann Lina's arms, and screamed.
Via and Anlena washed up and had breakfast. At this time, a noisy voice came from outside the lord's mansion. Via and Alena walked out of the gates of the Lord's Mansion together.
Outside the gate, more than 700 people knelt. These people dragged their families with them, and they were all dressed in shabby clothes. There are men, there are girls, there are children, there are old people.
When the people saw Via leave the Lord's Mansion, they said together, "Please take it in, Your Excellency." ā
Via looked at these people and estimated that there were more than 700 people. Via was overjoyed and said, "From now on, you will be the inhabitants of the territory of the Bath Fire Village. ā
The people were very happy, and one by one they went away and looked for a house to live in.
Wei Ya estimated that with these more than 700 people joining, his own Bathing Fire Village would be able to increase its monthly tax revenue from more than 30 silver coins to more than 60 silver coins in the future. That's seven hundred silver coins and seven gold coins a year. Gold coins, each one of them is very valuable, and many people will break their heads and scramble.
The reason why this change can happen in the village is that Via can protect the villagers of the village and make it possible for them to live safely. Via is the support of more than 1,000 villagers in the entire Bath Fire Village.
Via and Anlena were about to return to the Lord's Palace. At this time, a beautiful blonde female knight rode a white horse, wore a knight's armor, and held a long sword, and came to the gate of the lord's mansion in the village of bathing fire.
The blonde knight turned over and dismounted, walked up to Via and Ann Lina, and said loudly, "Which is the new lord of the Bath Fire Village?"
Via said, "I am the new lord of the Bath of Fire Village, Lord Via. ā
The beautiful female knight said, "My name is Thea, and I am a third-order knight, and I am 16 years old. ā
Via was taken aback, a 16-year-old third-order knight, this is a very strong strength, a very genius talent. Knights and swordsmen are both branches of warriors, and both are cultivating fighting spirit. A third-order warrior, as a knight is a third-order knight, and as a swordsman is a third-order swordsman.
Thea continued, "I am the first day of the knight academy in the city, and I am also the lord of Locke, the daughter of Baron Locke. ā
The world is divided into feudal systems, the king and the emperor will give the land to the duke, and the duke will divide his land into blocks and seal it to the marquis, and the marquis will give his land to the counts, and the counts will give their land to the viscounts, and the viscounts will give their land to the barons, and the barons will give their own lands to the lords.
The village of Bath on Fire in Via is the village under the jurisdiction of Locke. Baron Locke was a superior nobleman in Viva. Locke Town has ten villages, and the Fire Village is just one of them.
Thea continued, "My father, Baron Locke, canonized me Thea as a lord, lord of the village of Night Moon. Recently, a large number of villagers in my Yeyue Village have left Yeyue Village and come to your Bathing Fire Village, which has seriously affected the tax revenue that my Xia can get. ā
"Those villagers were originally villagers from the village of bathing fire. At first, because my adoptive father, the former lord of the Fire Village, was too weak to protect them, they fled and went to another village. Now that I'm stronger and able to protect these villagers, these villagers have returned to the village of Bath and become my subjects. ā
Xia said: "Anyway, now that my taxes in Yeyue Village have been greatly reduced, you have to give me an explanation." I command you to immediately send all the villagers of the Bathed Fire Village to my Yeyue Village. If you do not obey this order, then I will let my father, Baron Locke, strip you of your fief and deprive you of your title. ā
Via said, "You're too domineering. ā
Xia said: "My strength is high, I am a third-order knight, and you. I am a baron's daughter, and you are nothing but a lord. What qualifications do you have for me to be reasonable, and why should I be reasonable? If you make me unhappy, I will destroy you. ā
Via also knows that he can't beat Thea now. Thea is a third-order knight.
"According to the statute, a great nobleman can only be deprived of his title and fief if he commits a serious crime. I have not sinned, and your father cannot do anything to me. ā
Thea drew her sword and said, "I can kill you!"
Via said: "It is a crime to kill a nobleman, do you want to go to jail?"
Xia really didn't dare to commit the big crime of killing the nobles.
Xia Ya thought for a while and said to Via: "In this way, I will make an agreement with you, I will compete with you in martial arts, if I win, you will drive all the villagers of Bathing Fire Village to my Yeyue Village." ā
Via said, "What if you lose?"
Xia said, "I'm a third-order knight, and I won't lose. ā
Via said, "If you lose, you will no longer embarrass me, and give me Via a maid for a year, how about it?"
Xia said: "I won't lose anyway, and I can promise you." ā
"The competition has to be a month later," Via said. ā
"A month later, a month later." ā
Via said: "Now we sign a contract for the competition. ā
Via read: "The God of Light is above, I, Via, sign a contract with Xia here, and a month later, I will have a competition with Xia. If I win, then Thea must not embarrass me anymore and will be a maid for a year at the same time. If I lose, I'll send all the villagers of Bath Fire Village to Nightmoon Village. This contract is witnessed by the God of Light and cannot be broken by both parties. If I disobey, I lose my life. ā
Xia read: "The God of Light is above, I, Xia here, sign a contract with Via, and in a month I will compete with Via." If I win, Via will send all the villagers of Bath Fire Village to my Nightmoon Village. If I lose, I'll be a maid for Via for a year, and I'll no longer embarrass Via. If I disobey, I lose my life. ā
White light appeared on both Via and Thea's foreheads, and the two white lights converged and disappeared. This means that the contract is established. In this world, everyone can establish this kind of contract, which is controlled by the God of Light, and those who violate the contract will be punished accordingly.
For Viva, this competition is a must. Only in this way can Via keep his territory, his title, his taxes.
