After I died, my personal maid rebelled.

The arrival of Elene finally brought a sigh of relief to the anxious Northern army, and also to Eryon.

How could he not see that ever since the two division commanders had their argument, the Fourth Division and the Second Division had been secretly having a lot of friction?

On the surface, the most restrained knight division... The knight division remained silent, simply stationed on the outermost perimeter. It is said that Commander Red had privately warned the officers of the knight division at all levels.

If any other units of the Union Army make any unusual moves, act first and report later! Even if he, Red, is beheaded afterward, he will be willing to do so as long as the Union Army remains loyal.

These veterans are all ruthless. Forget about being comrades-in-arms for life. Anyone who dares to get close to me is considered to have ulterior motives!

Everyone has tens of thousands of elite troops at their disposal, and a brand new kingdom is about to be born. If we don't guard against each other now, are we waiting for some ambitious person to come and form factions?

Especially Kate, as the young lady's closest mentor, don't act like some big shot. Our mentor Red/Rondo is keeping a close eye on you!

Nothing happened that night. The next day, after a brief meeting, all departments followed orders and headed to their designated encampments with their supplies.

When the Second and Fourth Divisions were being seen off, the soldiers of the Knights Division held their chins almost to the sky.

Do you understand the value of what the Knights of the Knights left behind? The value of cavalrymen constantly being dispersed and following various units?

That's called loyalty!

Eleanor, of course, wouldn't let the knights sit idle. She ordered the various troops to disperse and set up camps, in order to thoroughly digest these newly acquired territories.

Due to the continuous wars, some lands that actually belong to the Northern Territory have not yet been divided up.

All land under heaven belongs to the king, and these lands all belong to the duke. Of course, the Northern Territory is not some violent regime that only knows how to exploit; the land must be taken back before it can be distributed.

She must clearly tell the people that from now on, there will only be one cloud above their heads, and that cloud is in the Ice City, not the Royal City.

The redistribution of land was only the first step; the second step was to re-establish government and form militia groups. Once the local areas were stable, these militia members would be selected to join the front-line troops.

With the military and civilians working together, everyone will gradually integrate.

A thousand knights were stationed at the camp, while the rest of the soldiers, including Erian, were released by Elene.

The mission can be summed up in one sentence: I'll be waiting for your good news next spring when the planting season begins.

There were always things to do, and after the camp quieted down, Leia also rushed over from the northern territory.

Leia knew she didn't have much ability, nor did she have any lofty ideals or ambitions. Her job in the Northern Territory was as Elene's deputy in the Secretariat, responsible for organizing documents and managing some key facilities.

She was able to become Paul's wife thanks to Luna; being in a good position gave her an advantage.

In Leia's eyes, her husband Paul, the Duke, Lady Eleanor, and Lady Janet were the same kind of people.

They came together because of their ideals and they also have the ability to change the world.

So most of the time, Paul would speak while she listened and waited for her husband to return from his campaign.

Previously, Leia felt that she was far removed from Lady Elene. At her age, Elene was already assisting the Duke in managing the territory, and could be said to be second only to the Duke.

But now, Leia finds herself very close to Elene, who has experienced more and waited longer than her, and who shares the same sadness and helplessness.

"His condition is better than the Duke's, so you don't need to worry too much," Elena said softly, standing in front of Paul's bedside.

"Yes, I know."

Holding Paul's hand tightly, Leia lowered her eyes, which were already glistening with tears. His rough, heavy hand required considerable effort to lift.

"Since you're here, stay and help me with some work."

"Okay, thank you, Lady Elene."

Not wanting to disturb their time alone, Elena stepped out of the tent as it was already night. She looked up at the twinkling stars in the night sky and silently pulled her white fur coat tighter.

She didn't want to cry anymore. This life was already so much better than the last. If she had to shed tears, she hoped they would be for moments of joy...

[cough! ]

A sudden electrical buzzing sound in her mind interrupted Elena's thoughts.

[Hey, Elena, do this system a favor. We need to pull your husband back from the abyss.]

The system felt a little embarrassed, just like how the temporary dragon was temporarily bound to Paul, and its temporary binding card was used on Elena.

Now things are really messed up. What was once a stopgap measure has become a lifeline, and the pretense of being a hermit master can no longer be maintained...

(What should I do?)

There are many things that Eleanor won't ask too many questions about; this is a tacit understanding she has had with Oswald for many years.

The system breathed a sigh of relief. As expected of a woman who changed everything with a mortal body, her wisdom was undeniable; she expressed her attitude in just one sentence.

[Don't hold back when you strike. Just make sure you're safe. Don't worry, he's very resilient.]

Upon hearing this, Elena tilted her head slightly. (?)

No, you guys... Thinking about the Duke's phased physical changes, Elena seemed to have realized some truth.

Following the system's instructions, Elena entered the large tent, lifted the curtain, and found the unconscious Duke still using his sword to remove the fleshy buds and tentacles growing from his body.

[Wait a mininute]

The system flashed back into Oswald's body and shut down with a single click.

Clang!

Oswald's sword fell to the ground, and the quick-thinking Elene helped the unconscious Oswald up and turned him over onto the bed.

Drawing the bone blade from her waist, Elena trembled as she adjusted her breathing. Practice makes perfect, and in her nervousness, she forgot to disinfect it, and with a whoosh, she sliced ​​open Oswald's spine.

Before she could stop the bleeding, urged on by the voice in her mind, Elena reached in and found the cold magic crystal on the thick spine amidst the warm flesh.

[Hold on tight, hold on tight!]

She quickly activated her permissions, and another magic crystal suddenly appeared in Elin's hand. The system repeatedly moved between the two of them, constructing a connection between the spell and their souls.

With a thunderous boom, a surge of undead magic pierced through Eline's body. The intense pain caused Eline to stagger, but she gritted her teeth and persevered.

The two magic crystals began to resonate and synchronize. The sweating system quickly returned to Elena's body and kept taking out recovery potions to inject.

Immortality magic is almost a deadly poison to the bodies of ordinary people, and it can even distort the soul.

But the system had to do this; it had to make Oswald temporarily undead in order to free him from the influence of lust.

Meanwhile, to prevent Oswald from falling into some strange state, it chose Elene as its anchor point, so now, it all depends on the compatibility of their souls!

[Hang in there, Elena. But don't put too much pressure on yourself. If it really gets too much, we can wait for Jenny to wake up. She can definitely withstand the effects of the immortality magic.]

In an instant, Elena saw countless memories of Oswald, along with his emotions, and amidst the pain of her physical collapse, she couldn't help but curse inwardly.

What do you mean by "waiting for Jenny"?! To use the Duke's words from his original world, she is the true queen! If it weren't for worrying that some awkward guy would be lonely for the rest of his life, she wouldn't share the Duke's love!

[Okay, okay, Your Majesty, please don't get agitated.]

Realizing it had misspoke, the system quickly reassured her and then transferred a portion of its own power to Elene. After confirming that she could hold on, the system began to operate Oswald's immortalization process.
