Although King Charles has been in power for 30 years, he has not actually participated in the army and fought on the front line.

Although he was a sixth-order knight, he relied on precious potions.

He did not understand the changes in the war situation at all, and could only listen to the opinions of the following.

And the court bureaucracy was filled with various interest groups, supporting different princes, and there were countless struggles every day.

When he encounters a dispute that requires him to decide, he often relies on likes and dislikes to decide.

He liked Felix and hated the eldest prince Chris, so he supported the Holland family and suppressed Baron Richard.

As for whether suppressing Richard will be detrimental to the overall situation and whether it will cause trouble, King Charles does not understand many times.

The reason why he hates the eldest prince Chris is actually for a special reason, he found out that the queen was cheating on Duke Roger.

The queen is the daughter of Duke Duran, and Duke Roger also has a lot of influence within the royal family.

Even when there is solid evidence, it is difficult to gain broad support to deal with them.

Not to mention the rumors that King Charles heard, it may also be a palace struggle, which is chasing the wind.

Because of this estrangement, King Charles will continue to support Prince Felix, whom he likes, and hopes to support Felix as his heir.

King Charles felt very humiliated by being beaten by the Duke of Breenne, but the reality had to make him bear the humiliation.

Since King Louis, four generations of kings have lived in the shadow of Brennes.

Only his father, Philip, a ninth-order epic knight and high prestige in the army, would receive Breener's limited respect.

Although he is a high king, but in the face of Brenner, Charlie has no ability to resist. Because in the basic plate of the royal family, Brenner's influence far exceeds that of the king.

At odds with Breenne, neither the Royal Janissary nor the Mage Corps would support the King's decision.

If you don't tear your face, you will even die unexpectedly, and the throne will be replaced.

"If I die, poor little Felix doesn't know what fate will befall me? Anyway, the old man Breener is dying, and when he dies, he will be able to turn over. I've written down today's insults, and there will always be a time for reckoning. ”

King Charles hated Brenner to death in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. What Brehner said, he didn't actually listen to at all.

But Marshal Breener's decision, King Charles did not dare to object.

Soon the royal capital sent a commendation order, and Richard was given two territories.

These two territories together amounted to more than 4,500 square kilometers, and the original Barony of Richard was merged and promoted to Viscounty Richard, with a combined area of 6,000 square kilometers.

Counting the territories of William and Sophia, the Haaland family's fief has reached 9,000 square kilometers, surpassing Viscount Rohmon and becoming the hereditary nobleman with the most fiefs in Geda Province.

Although the fief is large, there are not many people in the territory.

Together with the 6,000 slaves rescued in this war, the Haaland family controlled a population of more than 50,000 people.

Although 50,000 people cannot be said to be less, placed in 9,000 square kilometers of land, there are only five people per square kilometer, which is only a little better than Richard's XZ in his previous life.

The territory controlled by the Haaland family, although it is mountainous, is actually very suitable for human survival.

Such a large piece of land, if developed, would be enough to feed 300,000 people.

The bureaucrats who came down from the royal capital were very good at looking at it, and found that the Kingdom of Charles did not like the Haaland family, so naturally they would not be close to Richard.

didn't even want the gifts sent by Richard, as if to avoid the plague god, hastily divided the territory, handled the paperwork, and returned to the royal capital without stopping.

The reason why the royal capital gave Richard such a vast territory was actually to give favors to the ownerless land.

This area is all uninhabited.

If Richard had gained a foothold here, the territory would have become a salient for the orcs' key strikes.

With this salient, the defensive posture of the entire province of Geda will be greatly improved, and the Haaland Valley is completely in Richard's hands, and the orcs cannot invade through this valley.

The kingdom of Grant is just a little name, and the ambitious nobles must fight hard.

It is very dangerous to become a salient in the border provinces, especially in the north, where wars are frequent and intense, and the county of Martins is a salient, which was quickly conquered by the orcs.

Martins is not on his feet, and the Haaland family is now stronger than the Martins family, and it will be equally difficult to gain a foothold.

Promoted to knighthood and granted a new territory, the time has entered August.

The orcs suffered a defeat in the war in Geda Province, and the Northern Legion entered the province of Lah, and the commander of the orc front, Kiram, saw that the situation was unfavorable and decisively chose to retreat.

By late August, the fighting had ended, and Richard had returned to Geda Province with the main force.

After being promoted to the title, you need to go to the royal capital to participate in the canonization ceremony.

Richard hurried to the royal capital, and the time was already the third day of the ninth month.

With the coat of arms of the nobility, Richard entered the hall of the noble council.

The hall of the noble council has six floors and is thirty meters high, and there are many magicians who contributed to the construction of this building, and there are no seams between the stones, and it seems that mud was turned into stone.

The interior is also very luxuriously decorated with precious materials.

Richard went to the Council of Nobles and went straight to Prince Chris.

After turning out with the Horland family, Richard temporarily put aside his suspicions with Duke Roger and became a staunch supporter of Prince Chris.

After Richard's trouble, it has become impossible for Richard to cooperate with the Holland family.

Berette Holland could not stay in Geda Province anymore, and was removed from his post by King Charles, and was temporarily dormant. However, his cousin Jeram was once again reappointed by King Charles and became the consul of the province of Seldorf.

The province of Seldorf is located southwest of Nolan and is equivalent to the HEB province of Richard in his previous life.

With this transfer, Jeram's position is even more important.

After Richard came to Nolan, he waited for more than ten days, and together with the three barons, participated in the knighthood ceremony and swore allegiance to the Kingdom of Grant.

After taking the oath, Richard suddenly felt a thin chain appear in the spiritual power space, as if his soul was locked.

As soon as the chain entered, it was immediately absorbed by the silver necklace.

Absorbing this bit of power, the silver necklace seemed to be a little brighter.

There was an abnormality in the silver necklace, which made Richard feel shocked and a little confused.

Richard did not attend the next banquet and hurried back to the hotel.

Richard wanted to find out the secret of this silver necklace, but unfortunately he was helpless, and the feeling of being controlled by others made Richard hate it very much. He was secretly wary of this silver necklace, did not dare to slack off for a moment, and was very diligent every day. I hope to advance to the legend as soon as possible, and only when the essence of life has changed can I figure out the secret of this silver necklace.

Immediately after the ceremony, Richard returned to his territory and devoted himself to the study of magic.
