Isidore shook her head, "In addition, Andrea is the most respected princess of the City of Light, and the Temple of Light is friendly with the City of Light, even if she is guilty of serious crimes, the flame of judgment will never fall easily." ”

"Is that so?"

Ryan: "Then I'll leave first, and I'll come back to you next time when Andrew returns." ”

"Praise you for your generosity."

Isidore nodded, "Then I'll check again to see if there's anything that needs to be changed, and I'll come back to you when Essex returns." ”

Ryan said yes and turned to leave Isidore's bedroom.

When the door was closed, Isidore returned to the table and sat down, holding the quill in his right hand and removing the hedron from the parchment scroll with his left, looking sideways out the window before revising, and finally sighed lowly.

*

Ryan left Isidore's room, walked down the corridor and asked the system, "Isn't Andrea and Isidore close?" ”

The system didn't answer the question, but replied in a whispered voice, "If it weren't for Andrea, Isidore wouldn't have been exposed to the forbidden books in the first place." ”

Ryan sighed, understanding that the system would not answer his question, "Then it seems that Andrea, she may be thinking of destroying the Temple of Light with the power of books." ”

Ryan hesitated for a few seconds as he returned to the lord's bedroom and into the forest, "Lord, do you think Andrea, the flame of judgment will fall on her head?" ”

System: "It depends on whether the Pope has a truly benevolent heart." ”

Ryan found it a little difficult, but it was hard to say, and he decided to put this matter down for now.

The cubs eat a lot in the morning, and the magical meat is not digested so quickly, so they can wait until the evening to feed it. The elves and Pergasus can eat fruit and grass, and Ryan prepares to find Teklin first.

*

The castle is now nearing completion, leaving only a few rooms to be renovated and where the maids and valets live. Although most of the noble lords, the male and female servants of the castle slept in the corridors, Ryan decided that it would be better for them to stay in the rooms.

Ryan had already planned that when the manservants and maids returned after the castle was completed, those who were willing to sign the contract would stay, and those who were unwilling to sign the contract would be dissolved with a sum of money.

After all, there are too many secrets in his castle, and Ryan only wants people who are loyal to him, otherwise the manservants and maids can be replaced by puppets. As for Carly and the other cooks, they signed a contract when they got Ryan's recipes, and they couldn't pass on the secrets and recipes to the outside world, otherwise they would die and their families would be affected.

Ryan used his psychic powers to control the wind and surrounded himself and found Teklin on the top of the castle's tower.

The wind flew itself by, and Ryan asked Tycklin, who was leaning against the spire of the tower and taking a sip of wine towards the sun, "Master Teklin, are you free now?" ”

Teklin had just finished renovating the spire, and some goblin stone carvings were inlaid next to the spire, making the castle much more elaborate.

Seeing Ryan coming, Teklin immediately withdrew the wine into the spatial ring, "Oh, good day. Dear Lord Lane, no matter how many times you drink it, I have to praise you for how good your wine tastes. ”

After saying that, Tekrin jumped up easily, looked at Ryan, who was floating in the air and was at eye level with him, and asked, "The castle repair is almost complete, Lord Ryan, is there anything you came to me to ask me to do?" ”

"I've heard the dwarves say that there are a lot of forged weapons and that there are no suitable merchants to trade, so I went to Laibaye this morning and talked to you about a deal."

Ryan: "Rybaye's prince Orn needs a batch of weapons and armor, and I haven't said exactly what he needs at the moment, but you can ask him for the materials you need, or use gold every time you trade with him, like me." ”

"Liberal, isn't that the name of the City of Fire?"

Tekrin laughed, "I didn't expect you to even know the prince of Fire City. ”

"I'm friends with Orn as a businessman, and I've had many dealings."

Ryan smiled and replied, "If you need more things, maybe I can take you to Lebaye and talk directly to Orn about the deal." ”

"I heard Jim say before that there is a special stone in Lebaye that softens when exposed to fire."

Teclin looked down and thought, "Also, I've always wanted the lava stones of Leybaye, and as your friend, I'm sure he'll be worth trading, but I don't know the value of those stones. ”

"It's okay."

Ryan: "If you're free, I'll come with you when Orn contacts me." ”

Teklin: "God of Thunder, it's great to have your help. ”

Chapter 147

Essex they're almost there, with Nan's wanderer friends.

As the sky approached dusk, the clouds were like fire, and the golden sunset was shining with the double moon, while waiting for Essex and them to return, Ryan first used teleportation magic to come to the forest, and on the verdant meadow of the lake full of pink lotus flowers, he saw a forest paradise woven with thorns, vines, and various flowers.

The goblins were inspired by previous slides and swings, which weave together high, winding slides and tunnels with dark green vines and astringent thorns. The branches of thorns are haphazard and free, burrowing from the clearing into the forest, forming countless forked and wild paths.

The shrunken Alenid, along with a group of cubs and flower elves, sat in a row on a large multi-layered layer of colorful petals. They even used vines to connect the petals together, tied the vines to the wind swing to the petals, and in the wind blowing by the wind fairies, kept turning and drifting through the forest and rotating 360°, which was particularly enjoyable and exciting.

Seeing that the flower fairy and Alenid were having fun, Ryan turned and disappeared into the forest, and turned his mental power into his hands, and Ryan collected some of the unconscious mushrooms from the trees after the fluorescent mushrooms fell off, and then built a bonfire in the clearing in the forest.

When he saw Cecil leave the petals, Ryan thought to himself that Atwood should have arrived.

Because he was going to talk to the wanderers later, Ryan decided to prepare dinner for the elves and cubs first, and when the smell of roasted meat, roasted sea fish, roasted mushrooms, and roasted tree fruits wafted to the forest playground, the wind elf who smelled the smell first slapped his palm, and then the wind stopped.

Huge petals stopped on the smooth vine slide, and the elves and cubs looked into the depths of the forest at the same time.

The sunflower flower fairy who was sitting with the sky mianbird turned his head, "It's mmmmmmmm ”

Alenid looked up and whimpered, "I smell it too, it's meat!" ”

It's so fragrant!

The cub of the two-headed dragon snake intertwined its heads and looked at the young one-horned Pegasus, the purple dragon snake hissing and swallowing the snake letter, and asked if it could take itself down.

"Huh?"

Pegasus glanced at the two-headed Tyrannosaurus snake's nearly three-meter-long body, then at his small white wings, and then shook his head vigorously in refusal.

Although they are both cubs, the size of the two-headed Tyrannosaurus Snake at this time is too big for the baby Pegasus!

The vine slide wasn't too low from the ground, and the Titan Naga cub gently patted the petals with its snake tail and looked down at the ground, thinking about what would happen if she jumped off.

Just as the cubs of the Three Seas Clan reached out and grabbed the petals, ready to jump down together. Alenid grew a little bigger, then spread his wings and flew out of the huge petals, easily holding the huge petals and the cubs above, and flew into the forest where the scent came from.

Alenid was fast, but when the flower elves arrived, all they saw was a puppet in the shape of Ryan spinning the grill, as well as roast meat and various ingredients placed on top of the leaf mat.

Hearing the sound of the wind caused by the flapping of the red dragon's wings, the puppet turned its head sideways, and Ryan remotely controlled the puppet and said to the flower fairies: "I still have something to do, I can't have dinner with you, I can play for a while after eating, remember to go back when it gets dark." ”

All the cubs, including the elves and Alenids, nodded and barked at the puppets, happily sitting in a circle around the leaf mats, enjoying their meal together.

*

When Ryan returned to the castle from the forest, he met Essex and Atwood, as well as Isidore and Cecil at the entrance to the castle.

"Hiss-"

The black snake Cecil was spitting snake letters and was communicating with Atwood in snake language, and Atwood, who had half-elf druid blood, had no trouble communicating with Cecil.

Atwood was already satisfied that he had been able to enter Orlan without being chased away by the life-saving snake Cecil.

Nan calculated the time to be the first to meet him, and as Ryan had instructed, he took his friends to the shopping street, while Al took the merchants to the hotel that had been prepared in advance. Without Dylan's doppelganger present, none of the certificates in the hands of this group of merchants were qualified to meet Ryan, the lord of Orlan.

Stopping the breeze to speed up, Isidore ended his communication with Essex when Ryan was seen in the distance.

Essex is tall and has a very reliable feel at first glance. Even though he was dressed in armor and didn't have to salute according to etiquette, Essex tucked the spear in the spatial ring and walked past Isidore towards Ryan.

Seeing Essex's movements, Atwood, who had communicated with each other on the road before, paused for a moment, and also ended the communication with Cecil, quietly turning to look at this side.

Essex's steps were vigorous and steady, he stopped in front of Ryan, then knelt down on one knee, put his right hand on his left chest and saluted allegiance, and said to Ryan with great respect and integrity in his eyes: "Honorable and merciful Lord Ryan, I am Essex, a spear knight, and I will offer you all my loyalty from this day forward."

I will be the spear in your hand to sweep away all obstacles, and remove all those who harbor ill will towards Oran, and I hope you will allow me to join Oran and become your loyal people. ”

After Essex finished speaking, Isidore walked over to Essex and stopped.

Isidore took out a golden staff and put it on his chest, and in the afterglow of the red sunset, Isidore stood beside Essex, his blonde hair draped behind him, his eyebrows were lowered and firm, and he said with a pious and respectful attitude: "Dear Lord Lane, may the light of God be blessed, and offer my loyalty and faith of Isidore, I will be your most loyal people, and I will never betray." ”

Everyone's way of allegiance is different, and it's more convincing to simply offer loyalty than a bunch of unfulfilled vows.

"May the splendor of Oran always bless you and others."

Ryan straightened his waist and accepted the gift of allegiance from the two of them with dignity and elegance, and at the same time reached out to touch the space ring, and gently took out two parchment rolls and two quills prepared in advance, "I accept your allegiance and sign your names on it." ”

Isidore and Essex did not hesitate to take the quill and sign their names on it.

When Ryan took back the parchment, he said to the two of them with a gentle look in his eyes, "Welcome to Orlan, may you always be proud to join Orlan." ”

At the moment when the words fell, Essex and Isidore appeared on their heads at the same time, and their loyalty reached 100.

The system muttered in Ryan's head, and said regretfully: "I originally thought that you would ask me how to answer, but I didn't expect you to answer quite standardly. ”

What a good chance to cheat Krypton.

"I have a lot of knowledge to make up for evil."

Ryan whispered back in his head, "And how do I think, you seem to want to ask why I didn't accept Andrew like this in the first place...... Mathea their allegiance. ”

The system calmly replied: "I'm just sorry for missing the opportunity to cheat Krypton." ”

Ryan: "I don't believe it. ”

System: "Then why not hold a Gift of Allegiance?" ”

"At that time, I was poor and died, how could I have the energy to think so much without money?"

Ryan snorted, feeling that something was wrong, "Even if they don't hold allegiance, their loyalty is still 100%, can allegiance still have any hidden effects such as breaking through loyalty?" ”

System: "You've thought too much. ”

Ryan still felt that something was wrong, but now was not the time to dig deeper.

Essex rose from the ground and joined Isidore in replying to Ryan, "Dear Lord Ryan, we will always be proud to be the people of Oran. ”

When the allegiance was over, Essex looked at Ryan and said, "Dear Lord Ryan, 'he' has been resolved, and I have left 300 men to guard the border, and I will lead a total of 350 warriors back to Oran."

Of the 300 people who were recruited to stay behind, 200 were secretly loyal to the Temple of Light, and the remaining 100 were still hesitating, and the 350 warriors they brought back were all loyal to Orlan and could be appointed with confidence. ”

"Good."

Ryan: "Did any of the 300 people left behind recognize you or were aware of your intention in bringing them back?" ”

Essex shook his head and replied, "No, with Mr. Atwood's help, the process went smoothly, but I took advantage of the reason you summoned, for which I am deeply sorry." ”

"It's okay, I can understand the urgency of the matter."

Ryan: "Where did you place the warriors you brought back, and what did you do with the thieves?" ”

Essex: "Eli's steward imprisoned the thieves and asked if they had been instructed to do so, while the warriors took Demund near the lumberyard and the cook prepared dinner for them. And since they are all locals, I have taken it upon myself to let them go back tonight and rest for the night, and meet at the outer wall of the castle tomorrow morning to await your instructions. ”

"I see." Ryan bowed his head, "Essex, you're doing a good job. ”

Essex, "Then what do you need me to do next?" ”
