"Is even Count Draco already involved in the rebellion of the New Alliance?"

After seeing Eve off, Ronan leaned back in his chair and muttered to himself.

Otherwise, there is no reason for the other party to spend such a high price to win him over a member of the royal family who is not important.

Unless he has an older brother who is about to become emperor.

It's just that as an already powerful earl of the kingdom, what will be the reason for the other party to participate in this rebellion?

Ronan doesn't fully understand the lack of information, but one of the things he is clear about is clear.

With the intensification of the war, the price of weapons has been soaring, and in a short period of time, it has been pulled into a seriously inflated position by supply and demand.

Ronan's high spending on armor from Triumph City is one of the manifestations of this.

Count Draco was the largest and most extensive arms supplier in the Empire, and the trade routes connected the Seven Kingdoms.

Either way, this is a good thing for Ronan.

After all, his own great cause of winning the king will definitely affect his side, of course, the stronger his own strength, the better.

Then he called Finance Minister Adlich.

"I'll be away from Black Rock City for a while, and during this time, someone will come to me and say that I won't meet with guests, so I'll get rid of it."

"Obey the city lord." Adlich nodded in agreement.

This is not the first time, the city lord of Ronan in front of him disappears from Black Rock City from time to time.

Staying in the city was far less long than he was away, and Adlich was used to it.

That being said, this city lord always solves problems in the city in a timely and effective manner.

He was generous, so the government officials in the city spoke highly of him.

Especially not long ago, after rumors about the identity of the other party's royal family flowed out.

There was less trouble in pushing the decree, and the caravans in the city were more cooperative.

When Adlich left, Ronan walked out of the castle shortly after.

He took Ed and eighty knights and the necessary supplies, and left through the back gate of Blackstone City on his horse.

Just like the secrecy of his arrival, Ronan's trip to Triumph City this time is also as close to outsiders as possible.

......

The town of Mu.

This is the central part of the Northern Provinces, far from the remote city of Blackstone.

It's been more than two months since the mercenaries and slaves rebelled and attacked the Hayman family's steel town.

As a mercenary who had escaped from the rebellion, Oro was sitting with his companions in the town's tavern, relaxing with a beer.

Thinking of what happened that day, Oro couldn't help but touch his shoulder.

He still remembers that the talking crow came to him and changed his life completely.

Not only did it give him great strength, but it also allowed him to step into the legendary path that he had dreamed of for a long time, just like the protagonist of a knight's novel.

Well, it's hard to say, Oro couldn't help but complain in his heart.

With his terrifying appearance after transformation, maybe he is the villain who was bewitched by the devil in the novel, and he is waiting for the protagonist's crusade.

But whatever.

As the price of power, what about being a believer in the devil.

At least the devil would treat him as his own, and the nobles would never look at him even a single glance.

Oro thought to himself, and couldn't help but look at the girl in front of him.

Previously, it was by relying on the strength of the other party that they were able to escape from being ignored on the battlefield and escape unharmed.

Now too, the maiden is presumptuously holding the high price of wine from the tavern.

After taking a sip, he was not satisfied, so he casually threw it on the ground and replaced it with another bottle.

Oro looked at the price in horror.

It would take him years to drink a glass of wine, and the girl's waste would add up to enough for him to take on this life.

But the rest of the tavern turned a blind eye to this.

Neither the other guests nor the bartender seemed to notice the situation.

"Well, Anika, be quiet, don't smash the wine glass on the head of the boss here like last time, exposing us to eating and drinking for nothing."

Aoro reminded him that Annika was the one who told him his name.

With this time together, their relationship is at least much more harmonious than it was at the beginning.

His companion Ket nodded, "Indeed, it was only up to Oro to knock them all down at that time that we could leave safely." ”

"I didn't let you do it, I just thought the wine was too bad and wanted to taste the taste of those people."

Annika cocked her slender and white thighs, stuck out her tongue and licked the corners of her mouth, nonchalant.

Hearing her words, Oro and the others were speechless.

During this time, they also saw Anika's extravagance, and it was not strange.

"Don't look at me like that, indulging in the stimulation of the spirit is the ritual of my faction, and I am not a traitor of the temperance faction, what do you say to restrain your desires and control your spirit, but in fact it is not hypocritical."

Throwing away the wine glass in her hand, Annika looked at Oro.

"Leave me alone, tell me about you, or won't you tell me where your power comes from?"

"Didn't you say that? What kind of gift is the gods, after all, I don't understand the state at all, who are you, and what does my power represent? I don't know anything, how do you ask me to explain it? ”

Aoro looked at her helplessly.

"Okay, then let me introduce you well." Anika's expression became serious.

"You should know that there are gods in this world, but not just the one in the church."

"The Order of the Silver Moon to which I belong, the Order of the Red Moon to which your vampires belong, and the many others hidden in the corners of the world, all originally derived from the bounty of their respective gods."

"The Red Moon Cultists are in charge of the manic flesh and blood power, and the Silver Moon Cultists are in charge of the sinking mind control."

Aoluo, who had expected it in his heart, was not too surprised, after all, he was not a devout church believer.

It's just that he still has doubts, "In that case, then why do you say that it is impossible for the gift of the gods to appear in me?" Isn't your strength also a gift? ”

"It's different, the gift on my body comes from the power of the bloodline inherited from the ancestors after the sacrifice of the silver moon in the era of ignorance."

Annika stared into Oro's eyes, "The same is true of the other Order, in this age of the silence of the gods, no one can transform the cultists and give ordinary people our power!" ”

Oro finally realized his problem.

Originally, he was just an ordinary person!

He thought of the strange crow and couldn't help but swallow.

"Maybe that god of the Red Moon Order was in a good mood that day and gave me a hand?" He sneered.

"Heh, it was better to do so." Annika laughed happily, "I've informed the higher-ups of the Silver Moon Order, and they'll be here soon, so I'll know your details when the time comes." ”

"That," Ao Luo asked worriedly, "I want to ask you about the relationship between the Silver Moon Order and the Red Moon Order on my side?" ”

"Relationship? Ha, of course it is," Annika was about to scare him, and suddenly couldn't help but frown.

Two people dressed in special clothes walked into the tavern, one of whom was a high-ranking Silvermoon executive she knew.

But another woman with long red hair made her frown deeply.

The special power exuded by the other party made her realize that it was the powerhouse of the Red Moon Order.
