The next day, Ante stood in the small open air square of the castle. The stone statues of women with severed arms on both sides stared at him silently, little Sir trembling slightly in the cold wind, and every breath he exhaled was white. But he still insisted on standing here, and when he saw a group of horses and carts driving away on the lake bay avenue of the castle, he waved goodbye in the direction of the convoy. The distance is too far, Unte's vision is not as sharp as the strong, he only sees the outline of the team. As for the knights riding on horses, or the infantry following behind, they were just black spots in the eyes of Little Sir.

But he knew that Edward must be able to see it. And he wants to convey goodwill.

Unte didn't walk back to the castle until the convoy got ashore. The temperature in the castle was high, he took off his fur cloak, his legs softened and almost sat on the ground, but fortunately the butler was supporting him. The new housekeeper is a middle-aged man in his forties. He has been working with the old housekeeper before and is very familiar with the affairs of the castle. After the death of the old housekeeper, Ante promoted him, which indirectly improved the quality of life of a family.

So the new housekeeper was very dedicated to Ante, and immediately asked: "My lord, are you okay?"

"It’s nothing, me, after all, it’s still that Ante. Although I desperately want to be like a father, I can’t possibly be so weak, right? [" Ante lowered his head so as not to be seen. Splashes swirling in his eyes.

The butler groaned: "My father said so, he said I don't have to be like him. As long as I live my own way and feel happy, it is a successful life. My father is a carpenter. , But I was not interested in those woods when I was young. As you can see, I did not become a carpenter today, but your housekeeper. Moreover, I think this kind of life is pretty good."

Unter raised his head, seeming to understand something.

The butler smiled and said: "Daniel-sama is indeed a respectable lord, but people's respect for him comes from his force in many parts. So I think it is not so much respect as fear as to be more precise. . Master Angte does not have the force of your father, but during this period of time between me and the adults, I can feel that the adult is a gentle-hearted person. Maybe you can't be a strong fighter like Daniel Daniel, but you can bring them to the leaders. Coming to a rich life can also win everyone’s respect."

"It's a real tribute."

Ante blinked his eyes: "Really? But if I am not strong enough, the territory will be deceived. My father always said that."

"My lord, not all animals in the forest are so powerful. Like deer, they are very fragile. But they know how to rely on each other and are each other’s eyes, eyes and horns. And you can see that for thousands of years, even in the forest There are more ferocious beasts. Have those docile lives like deer ever disappeared?" The butler smiled and said, "No matter what animals, they have their own way of survival. The way of survival does not necessarily depend on a powerful one. Force."

"In other words, there is a way to survive without strong force..." Angte smiled slightly: "Thank you, I feel better now."

"Nothing, it was my responsibility to assist you." The butler bowed.

People were in the carriage, and Edward looked at Lance opposite, feeling happy.

After the day of the Holy Scriptures, Giles, who felt his power was threatened, began to put aside all his scruples. Using Lanza as a bridge, ask Earl Reckold for help. How could Edward, who closely monitored the situation on both sides of Ark Harbor and Dorne Mountain City, didn't notice this. Giles and Rekerd can be said to be a good match. The former has lost his reputation. In the Ark Harbor, the betrayal of the people has reached the point of difficulty. It's him who is replaced by Edward, and after all, he can only take the chess piece of Rekerd, and he can hope to break through the siege.

As for the subsequent appeasement of the leaders, or violent suppression, that is after maintaining power.

For Rekerd, he coveted the wealth of Ark Harbor more than once when Auban was alive. Dorn Mountain City is a city no smaller than Ark Port, but due to geographical restrictions, it is inconvenient for business. Rekerd has the name of an earl, but he has no financial resources to match it. Otherwise, he would not spy on Ark Harbor by supporting Daniel.

The death of both Daniel and Auban is great news for Rekerd. He can control the unicorn collar near, and infiltrate the Ark Harbor through various means at a distance. The Earl's ultimate goal is naturally to include the two territories in his own bag. By then, his wealth will increase exponentially.

Unfortunately, an Allen was inserted between the two territories. The eyes and ears in Dorne Hill told Edward more than once how much Reckold hated and had a headache for their hard bone. It is precisely because of this that so far, Rekerd's many plans have ended in failure.

This time is no exception.

He did a good job of wishful thinking, wooing Ante and seizing the opportunity to seize military power. In turn, support Giles. In this way, Earl Reckold can mobilize his own power to be very few. Even if an accident occurs, it will only be the unicorn collar that suffers heavy losses. Lance thought the same way before yesterday, but now he is so frustrated that he doesn't even have the strength to speak.

Whoever wanted to get it, Edward got the information in advance and made arrangements only for them to deliver it to the door. As a result, Glenn's army was completely wiped out, and even he became a captive of the opponent. Even if Rekerd finally redeemed them, Lance was ready to be a joke in Dorne Mountain City.

"Mr. Lance, I don't know how deep your relationship is with Earl Laked?" Edward smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, I don't like to inquire about privacy, I just want to get you a worthy ransom. "

Lance snorted and said: "The earl is willing to pay me at least one hundred thousand gold coins. If it is more, then I am not sure. With Glenn, I think I should get one hundred thousand gold coins. Right."

Edward made a haha ​​and said, "I see, Captain Glenn and the captives should be given as gifts. But for you, Mr. Lance, I think Earl Reckold should pay a ransom of one million. Come, Fang shows sincerity."

Lance opened his mouth wide and said for a while: "Are you crazy? The earl can't pay so much ransom for me."

"On weekdays, it may not be. But in this situation, I think he will pay. Because if he doesn’t take out the money, the people in Dorne Mountain City will know the next day, and they quote How proud of the blood wolf knight and the gray wolf infantry were broken in a small country place. I think, the earl should not be able to lose this person?"

Lance was silent, he knew his uncle's temperament very well. Like Edward said, Rekerd is a face-conscious person. The blood wolf knight and the gray wolf infantry are the living signs of the earl, and between smashing the sign and one million gold coins, Rekerd is really likely to choose the latter.

Seeing that Lance didn't answer, Edward was even more certain that Rekerd would take out the money. After all, Lance knew the earl better than him. Now the Earl's plan is half bankrupt, and because of the handing over of Lance, Unter has waited for them to stand on their side, and there is no room for turning. The Unicorn collar should be a gentle neighbor in the foreseeable days in the future, which is a problem for the development of Allen Territory.

Actually, according to Edward's idea, he would rather Ante not hand over Lance. Then he has enough reasons to occupy this territory, in fact, while arranging a hundred troops of Broy to go to the border post. Another army of hundreds, led by Udi, hung on the border of the Emerald Mountains. As long as Edward is willing, the unicorn castle will change hands within a day.

Of course, since Unter made the right choice, he is not willing to destroy this hard-won "friendship." As for now, Giles, who has broken his back, has also come to deal with him. Edward smiled and looked out the window, thinking that the iron-backed eagle that was released in the morning should be able to bring the news here to Vera in the afternoon, right?

By then, Vera naturally knows what to do.

Villa received the news earlier than Edward expected. Before receiving the news, she had just met with one of the directors of the Jade Pearl Chamber of Commerce. Now that the church has taken root in Ark Harbor, there are now more than 10,000 believers, and Father Miró has planned to add another church. At the same time, located in the castle of dawn and bauhinia collar, there are also three other churches built in it. The church has done a lot of civil engineering, and more and more priests, nuns, and other priests have been absorbed, especially the Crusaders have carried out an expansion not long ago. With so many people added together, their living expenses, clothing, food, shelter, and even armor and weapons are all in great demand. To this end, the church has signed a long-term contract with the Jade Chamber of Commerce. The Emerald Chamber of Commerce is responsible for the construction of the church in Ark Harbor and even in several other territories. The personnel required and so on are all taken care of by the Jade Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, in order to accept such a large and ten-year contract, the Jade Chamber of Commerce also made a big concession, and in the end only the two companies benefited. Through the development of faith, commerce, force and other aspects, the church has been inseparable from the lives of the people in this territory.

Because of this, the influence of the church, Vera, Miró and others is also expanding. So when the church expressed its stance on Ruola's side, the effect was huge. Nowadays, except for a small number of people who still express neutrality, most people are on the side of the church. In particular, the Jade Chamber of Commerce, run by Oban painstakingly, completely broke with Giles without hesitation. Several directors of the Chamber of Commerce and the current chairman have expressed their support for Rola. Today, the situation is very unfavorable for Giles.

When a crusader swordsman delivered the information from the iron-backed eagle to Vera's hands, the girl smiled sweetly. Edward has eliminated the external troubles, so next is the time to settle the internal troubles.

She looked up and said to her guard: "Go and invite Miss Ruola."
