Warhammer in a box

Chapter 169: Praise and Settlement

Lawen fell to the ground with his Pegasus Knights. He looked at the corpses on the ground and was very angry. The serfs and knights had suffered considerable losses. No matter as a king or a Holy Grail Knight, he seemed a bit of a failure this time.

At this time, Leo, who was regarded by everyone as the greatest contributor to this battle, was being supported by everyone.

Seeing their king coming here, everyone calmed down and saluted Lao En.

"Greetings my Lord."

Lawn nodded to everyone.

"Knight, I saw your heroic performance just now. You are worthy of the title of knight. Tell me your name and which family you belong to."

Leo, who was named by Lawn, also responded excitedly: "My king, my father is Earl Adar!"

"Hmm? A'dar?"

Laun looked at A'dar standing aside and seemed very surprised. A'dar was an important general under his command, but he didn't even know that A'dar had such a powerful son.

"My Lord, Leo is my third son!"

"Adar, I'm glad you have such a wonderful son. Leo, are you still a chivalrous knight?"

"Yes, my lord."

Laun drew his sword and said to Leo, "Kneel down!"

Hearing this, Leo knew what he was about to face, and immediately knelt down on one knee in front of Laun excitedly.

"Leo, in the name of the King of Bretonnia, I appoint you as a knight of the kingdom. I hope you will continue to uphold the virtues of chivalry and safeguard the glory of the goddess!"

Laun tapped Leo's shoulder with his sword.

"Thank you, my majesty! I will always be loyal to you and the kingdom!"

Abeda beside him was also very excited. It was very difficult for a knight to cross each level, and he was very happy to see his son receive such an honor.

However, the expressions of his eldest son and second son beside him were not very good.

After successfully driving away the dark elves, Laun began to prepare to take them back to Gollonni for rest, but then he saw Gotrek, who was swaggering back to Otto's caravan, dragging a multi-headed snake's head in his hand.

The relationship between dwarves and Bretonnia is very ordinary, which makes dwarves almost rarely seen in Bretonnia.

Such a powerful dwarf made Laun couldn't help asking: "Who is this dwarf? Who is the person with the dwarf?" What attracted Laun was not only Gotrek, but also this strange caravan. He still remembered that a powerful sky magic hit the dark elf army. He thought it was the prophet under his command.

But after asking, he found out that it was not his own prophet who said that, but the black-robed woman in the caravan.

Looking at Morgiana whose face was covered, Laun always had a familiar feeling, but he couldn't recognize who she was at once.

As a hero of this battle, Leo had the opportunity to return to the city with Laun in triumph. Hearing Laun's words, Leo quickly said, "My majesty, this is a caravan under my command. The leader is a merchant named Otto. The dwarf is a butcher traveling around the continent. I heard that the woman... just hitched a ride with my caravan."

Leo did not reveal Mogiana's disguised identity, after all, they had an agreement between them.

"Oh? It seems that you have governed your territory well. When you were a chivalrous knight, you already had your own caravan. And I see that the serfs under your command are also very enthusiastic in fighting. This is rare. Remember to treat them well and don't be too harsh on them."

"Thank you for your praise, my majesty." "Let's go, my knight, and prepare to go back to receive the flowers and honor."

Laun did not dwell too much on this caravan. He was already a little overwhelmed at the moment. Wars were raging everywhere in his own kingdom and other duchies. He really had no energy to take care of other things. He also gradually realized how little control he had over other dukes and duchies in times of chaos.

The situation in Bretonnia is very similar to that of the Empire in this respect. Only when the Fairy of the Lake stands up will the whole of Bretonnia unite. But at this moment, the Fairy of the Lake is gone!
Lilith, the knights' faith, and Teclis now focused all their energy on the war in Ulthuan.

At this time, inside Otto's caravan, he was fulfilling his promise to the serfs who had made some gains. Bag after bag of grain was transported off the truck and handed over to the serfs. The serfs were also cheering after actually getting the benefits. The noble lord in front of them was not harsh on them at all!

In their eyes, a well-dressed Otto was no different from a nobleman.

In Otto's eyes, food is the least valuable thing. As long as Zhang Heng, the emperor, is around, food has never been a problem.

Every time Otto handed a bag of grain to the serfs, he would say a word of praise to the emperor, and the serfs would follow suit and say a word of praise to the emperor. Although they did not understand what this meant, a certain seed began to slowly sprout in their hearts.

Otto did not explain. What he needed to do now was to make these serfs develop a habit and adapt to the existence of the emperor. Then things would be much easier in the future.

"Lord Otto! Lord Otto! Look, I killed a dark elf! I did it!"

Hearing the shouting, Otto looked in the direction of the sound and saw a boy. That boy was the one who told him during the conscription that his brother had died in the battle.

"Nice job kid! What's your name!"

"My name is Todd! Lord Otto!"

"Come! Come and take what you deserve!" Otto handed the food to Todd.

"Thank you, Master Otto! You are such a kind man!"

"Don't thank me! Thank the great God-Emperor instead!"

The tangible benefits have allowed Otto to establish a lofty image in the hearts of these serfs. One cannot talk about chivalry or great ideals with serfs. As the saying goes, the most important thing is to eat when you are hungry.

Otto's efforts made these serfs feel a trace of dignity. When you don't have dignity, you can't feel its importance, but once you have even a little bit of it, you will find the difference.

Otto brought the caravan and Laun's army back to Goroni. Leo certainly would not treat the biggest contributor behind the scenes unfairly. Otto's assists saved him several years of struggle. After seeing the fighting power of Gotrek and Morgiana, he dared not underestimate them even more.

Leo used his savings to find a place for Otto's caravan to stay. After receiving the cheers from everyone, he felt very happy and had reached the pinnacle of his life.

"Otto! My friends! Thanks to you!"

"This is what we should do. We agreed to support each other!"

"That's right! You're right. This time, I don't think my father will just leave me somewhere randomly like he did before. You don't know, I want to laugh when I see the faces of my two brothers! Don't worry, Otto. When I gain more power in the family, you can also expand your business."

"That's great. By the way, Lord Leo, can you use your connections to let us have a store in the city? Also, our Chamber of Commerce is in great need of manpower. Can you sell those serfs to us?"

Otto talked about the most important purpose of his visit, which was to abduct people.
