Chapter 21: Warning

I don't know how to face the Romanovs, and they don't seem to know how to face me.

When the two soldiers saw me, they coldly led me to a smoky hall where a large number of people were celebrating happily. I heard a soldier say that the Virgin Mary appeared on the battlefield today, so the victory was so thrilling. Many of the soldiers took off their helmets and put them on the heads of the stunned servants and the grinning 'women' who stood to the side. A drunken soldier poured wine into the middle of a woman's breasts, and the angry woman slapped the soldier under the table, and a dog squatting under the table jumped up in fright, barked wildly and ran out of the door, barking far away. This dog was drenched in 'urine' not long ago, and at this time it was almost crushed to death, and it is estimated that the 'spirit' will not recover for a long time.

A knight of the House of Lepnin saw me and was about to stand up and give me a seat, but was pulled by his companions. His companion, though nominally from the Lepnin family, had been sent by the Count. Only the knight who gave up his seat for me was one of those sent by the garrison. The knights of the Lepnin family also appeared on the battlefield, and it seems that the count really pressed all the belongings this time. The last time I saw this knight was in Ivangelrod, when the knight was with Kaja and he still didn't like him.

Passed by this knight. I saw the seat assigned to me, right next to a group of Romanovs.

Richard sat with the rest of my 'brothers' and discussed how brave he was and where the war would go. I bet none of these young masters had ever been to the battlefield, but they spoke as if they had brought down the White Dangang with their own soldiers.

"You know what?" "When I rode to the edge of the woods, I spotted a barbarian. I immediately drew my spear, but the bastard turned around and ran into the woods. ”

"I can attest," said Richard, lifting his 'leg' to the table, with a lump of mud sticking to it, and scratched in several places by the bushes, "and I pursued it with Gregory, but the savages, who seemed to be by nature a master of concealment, eventually got out of the way." I thought the knife was going to bleed today. ”

Several of the surrounding Ivangelode's parliamentary soldiers let out exclamations.

"Sure enough, the teenagers of the Romanov family can already take charge on their own."

A group of young people from the Valan family are only interested in eating 'meat' and have no interest in paying attention to the affairs here. The adult knights don't want to take care of any of our people, because the people sitting around here are stunned, and they prefer to get drunk by themselves silently, and then find a 'female' to warm the 'bed' to finish the work. Someone talked about the piano and sang a Wiki song about a widow who seduced a merchant during the war. The mood was stirred up by the song, and almost all the men sang along to the tune with a hippie smile, splashing the remnants of wine on other people's clothes, or throwing bones 'around'.

The servants who brought food to the banquet were very busy, the soldiers who had finished the battle were especially able to eat, and the stock of Baidan Port was far beyond their imagination. During the feast, a Valan nobleman and a Vicchia 'Bo' Jarre got into a fight, and were thrown out of the 'door' by two servants. Another cat was thrown on the table, and the men slapped the table together, so frightened that the cat's back arched up, and its hair stood on end.

"Victor."

Suddenly someone was calling me.

I turned my head and saw that it was the knight of the Lepning family from earlier.

"Hello, sir." I said to him, "You have won the battle. ”

"The Earl is well commanded." The knight said frankly. He pinched a jug of wine, filled his glass, and asked me, "Do you want to drink?" ”

"Thank you." With my nod, he filled my cup with wine.

"I didn't see you, on the battlefield." The knight said, "As a knight of the Lepnin family, I am looking forward to your performance. Your brothers are on a mission around the port of Baidan to let the soldiers know of their existence. Where have you been? I heard that you were with the guy named Giovanni, but his army didn't show up. ”

"You also want to know where Giovanni went, don't you?" I asked him.

"Naturally," he nodded, and though I tried to look, I saw no trace of the 'yin' scheme, and he continued, "why do you ask?" ”

"The Romanovs are now trying to dig deep to find Giovanni." It suddenly occurred to me that this seemed to be someone I could rely on, should I tell him that I was under semi-house arrest now? No, I'm not a naïve kid anymore. "The Count must have assigned Giovanni some important task, so that no one knows where he has gone."

The knight blew his beard, "Who knows." But I feel like I have a good chance of winning this battle. It would be a shame if you couldn't get ahead or show your talent. Adults value you very much. ”

I don't know if he's talking about Kaja's father, or if he's talking about Lord Garrison.

"yes." I should be along. "Were you from the Lepnin family in the first place?

"No," he replied, "thank you, it's still full," he refused, and then went on to say to me, "I am from the Great Eastern Lake City, and I am a cavalry servant when the present King of West Vecchia, the Marshal of Vecchia, crossed the mountain pass to help the King of Svadia. Later, my follower 'Bo' Yar died, and after the war I received the title of 'Bo' Yar. Then the marshal became king, abolished the title of 'Bo' Yar, and changed me to a knight. But I had no land, so I went to Lord Lepnin. Later, you know, I was stationed at the mountain pass until you arrived. ”

"Well, I remember it all clearly" ''Is Kaja okay?''

"All is well." The knight said, "Catherine 'woman' will make an excellent wife." Leo-sama's health is not very good. ”

Is this knight still thinking about marriage or something? What do Kaja and her father have to do with me now? A strange voice appeared in my heart. I felt like I was talking to a stone about the end of antiquity. It doesn't make sense.

"Oh, yes." I took a sip of the wine and found that it was mixed with water, no wonder these guys were so good at drinking, "Why don't you follow them." ”

"Ekaterina 'woman' doesn't like me, and my brother." He said suddenly, to me bluntly, a little surprised. "It doesn't stop us from doing our job, but it does affect a lot of things. This time I was going to stay in Ivangorod, but the 'woman' of Catherine insisted that I and my brother come to the battlefield, and none of them were left around. ”

"What about your brother?" When I finished asking, I knew I had made a mistake.

The knight showed some compassion, "He has died in battle this morning, may his soul return to heaven." He died protecting Pastor Tom. ”

"Why protect Tom? If this man goes to the battlefield to cause any 'chaos', you should tie him to an oak tree and wait for the war to end. ”

Unexpectedly, the knight drew a cross on his chest, "He inspired everyone." At the height of the war, he stood in the middle of the battlefield with a cross in his hand. I believe my brother died willingly. But that's not what I'm worried about right now. Do you know who the people around Catherine are the 'women'? ”

Should I say what I observed? I felt that although the banquet was noisy, there must have been a few pairs of ears listening to our conversation all the time.

What if someone hears it?

"I know that they are the Earl's cronies, loyal and reliable." I said so.

The corners of the knight's mouth twisted, "Victor" Is this what you really think. ”

At this time, Yuri got up and left the table, and his 'squire' made his way through the crowd, and two drunken Varans patted me on the shoulder, "Vidor, come here." The knight of the Lepnin family stood up in a playful greeting, and returned to his seat. The knight sent by Count Kalinin said something to him with some unhappiness.

I have never seen this 'squire' before, and I don't know where it came from. I only knew Kirov and a few others, and that was when I was in the Romanov's hometown, which seems like a long time ago, although in reality it was only one winter.

In the next room, Yuri was unwrapping his armor. A frightening wound 'exposed' out, as if someone had given him a blow on the shoulder, and a few pieces of iron residue stuck in the 'flesh'. He didn't show it at all. A servant cleans the wound with a pair of copper pliers for tooth extraction, and wipes away the blood with a 'hairy' towel.

"Victor." Yuri said to me. "I had you locked up." Yuri gets straight to the point.

"I thought it was the Count." I said to him.

"The Count asked me to enlighten you, so I locked you up in that little cage. Do you know your new friends? ”

"Yes," I thought of the rant of the Lord of Baidangang, "and he seems to have the intention of surrendering. ”

"Surrender?" "He had a whole winter making the right decisions, but he didn't, so he's locked up in this place now," Yuri said. Man is to blame for his mistakes, Victor, and you will see this man punished. ”

"To whom?" I asked him.

"For those who need some guidance, Victor." Yuri still had the same smile on his face, as if I had seen him for the first time at Romanovburg. At that time, he was lying lazily, and a 'woman' 'exposed' his breasts in front of me, and by the way, he threw a dagger at me.

"I understand." I nodded, not giving the expression he wanted to see, "He should be punished." ”

My words made Yuri's smile change, as if an elder had discovered a completely strange junior, "Victor, it seems that you have learned a lot." ”

Yes, Yuri-sama, you should have thought of it when you sent me to the 'trade'.

"Yes, Yuri-sama. I'm going to live with mercenaries, and I have to do the same. ”

"Change that damn tone for me," Yuri said, "I'm not the mercenary chief, I'm your uncle." If you dare to speak like that again, I will cut your tongue and make you a quiet Victoria. ”

I thought of the Lucasino family.

"Yes, as you wish, Your Excellency." I said to him. "Any other commands?"

"No, Victor." A spasm struck Yuri's shoulder, and the servant pulled out an iron spike. I couldn't resist paying attention to his wounds, or saying a few words of concern. Yuri sensed my coldness, so he waved his other hand, "Go ahead, you'll get a 'bed', tonight just to remind you that there is no good in challenging the Earl, and that lord is the end." Let's go. ”

"Yes, sir." I turned and walked away. My hostility shouldn't seem so obvious, but they probably wouldn't care, and think I'm playing a child's temper.

When he reached the door, Yuri's voice came, and he seemed to be talking to himself, as if he was chatting with his 'squire', "Well, we're going to lose this guy." ”
