The royal capital.

After the declaration of war, the king left first, and the ministers came forward to talk to Ron, trying to ask him something.

The king's previous attitude was obviously biased towards Baron Arnold. They were all old foxes and smelled something different.

On the other hand, no one paid any attention to Viscount Fast. He looked at each other angrily and coldly, and then strode away.

Ron felt a little helpless to the Kingdom ministers who kept surrounding him. He just smiled and said that he had something to do and would talk to them in detail next time.

Rejecting the warm invitations from the ministers to talk, Ron quickly walked out of the hall, followed the pace of Marquis Noches, and shouted: "Your Majesty, please stay."

Marquis Nochis stopped and waited for Ron to come to him. He asked with a smile: "What's the matter with Baron Arnold? If it's about the territorial war, you can go to my house to talk alone."

Ron was slightly startled. Did he have a grudge against Viscount Fast? The meaning of this sentence is obviously to help him win this battle of honor, but he is the prime minister of the kingdom and cannot help anyone openly.

'Talk alone' means that this matter will not be known to a third person, but I don't know if this is Marquis Noches's impromptu idea or His Majesty Meredith's intention.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, but I'm not here for this matter." Ron said.

Not to mention that the Arnold Territory did not need funding, even if it did, he would go to Viscount Gordon or Marquis Alfred.

"Oh? Then why did Baron Arnold come to see me?" Marquis Noches looked confused.

——

Royal Academy of Nobles.

Office of the Dean of Magical Sciences.

After receiving the letter from Marquis Noches, Ron successfully entered the academy and met the dean of the academy, Monica Padridge, for the second time.

"We meet again, Ms. Monica." Ron greeted.

Monica's eyes shone slightly and she seemed to be more energetic, "Yes, Baron Arnold, please sit down."

She waved her hand gently, and the indoor environment began to change like a dream, like falling into a forest wonderland.

A wooden block appeared at Ron's feet. He didn't know why Monica cast this magic every time she saw him, or whether it was her habit and she would do it every time she had guests.

As soon as he sat on the wooden pillar, a branch spread to his side, and a fresh fruit grew. This time it was not the Red Flame Snake Fruit, but a plant that had never been seen before.

"You can have a taste."

Seeing that he made no move, Monica said in a kind tone.

"Ms. Monica, this time I want to ask you whether the first Baroness Arnold is still alive?" Ron chose to ask straight to the point. The other party has lived long enough and was once a member of the three major duke families in the kingdom. She must know Issues.

After hearing Ron's words, Monica fell silent, her pupils seemed to lose focus and became blurry, as if she was remembering something.

Ron didn't bother her. After a long time, Monica came back to her senses and said, "I'm sorry, I get distracted easily as I get older.

Although I don’t know why you ask, she is indeed dead and I was at her funeral. "

Hearing this answer, Ron swallowed the words in his mouth again.

The witch is dead?

Amelia said that the fourth level of strength cannot defeat the witch, and there are no professionals or magicians beyond the fourth level in the Carlo Kingdom.

Could it be that his guess was wrong and the first Baroness was not a witch? Ron frowned and slowly said, "Does Ms. Monica know that the first Baroness is a witch?"

"I know, not only me, but also the royal family and the three major duke families know. They are afraid of the power of the witch and never dare to set foot in Arnold's territory." Monica gave the answer.

At this moment, Ron was confused.

"Ms. Monica, please tell me."

After making random guesses, Monica finally became interested and told Ron the story of her encounter with the Flame Witch Lilith a hundred years ago.

At that time, Monica was still a very young child of the Duke Padrich family, almost as old as Melitoya now.

The Meredith family established a new regime and its prestige in the Carlo Kingdom was unshakable, which made the crown prince at that time extremely arrogant. He met the beautiful Lilith during an outing and planned to marry her back to the palace. For the princess.

As a witch, Lilith was of course unwilling. The Crown Prince's entanglement failed and she planned to use force. The result was predictable.

After learning that the crown prince had been killed, Meredith II ordered the arrest of the witch. However, there was only one red-haired man with useful information, which made the search very difficult. Therefore, relying on his unshakable position and in order to maintain the majesty of the royal family, he ordered the arrest of the witch. A tragedy that resulted in the execution of people with red hair.

This kind of misfortune also happened to the Duke of Padridge's family. There are two red-haired owners in the Duke of Padridge's family. One is the Duke's concubine and Monica's biological mother, and the other is Monica. He inherited his mother's red hair.

As a member of the Duke's family and a concubine of the Duke, originally the royal family would not do anything. They knew she was not a witch and let her go. However, they could not resist being tempted and set up a conspiracy.

Among them was the jealousy of Duchess Padridge and other concubines, the push and pull of the other two dukes, and the smooth flow of the royal family.

Under various conditions, Monica's mother was sent to the execution platform, and Monica 'escaped'.

This may have been due to Duke Padridge's conscience and he did not kill his daughter with his own hands, so Monica met the witch Lilith in the forest.

"You know what? She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, and I will never forget that beautiful red hair."

Monica sighed, "I was very young at the time, and I remember hating her very much, but she was not angry. Instead, she gave me three sweet fruits. I searched all my life to find the seeds of the three fruits. "

Ron looked at the fruit hanging on his hand. In addition to the previous Red Flame Snake Fruit, this should be the second one.

He stretched out his hand to pick off the fruit, and Monica smiled when she saw it, and continued: "She said I was still young, so she asked me to go back and changed my hair color."

As she spoke, magic radiated from her body, and she became younger. Her hair turned from snow-white to red, and at the same time, flame marks appeared on her forehead.

"This is the curse she put on me. Because of this, I have survived many crises."

Ron imprinted the pattern of flames in his heart and listened to Monica for a long time. The story finally came to an end.

"Her funeral was not grand. Even when she was lying in the coffin, she was still so beautiful."

As the words fell, Monica slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Ron was startled and did not wake her up. He stood up, saluted Monica to express his gratitude, and then left softly.

——

Arnold Collar.

During Ron's absence, various things happened one after another in the territory, disrupting the security of the territory, destroying the construction team, etc.

Amelia saw that these were not the methods of the same person, and realized that the enemy might not be just Viscount Fast.

Fortunately, Thomas responded in time and cut off the signs as soon as they appeared, leaving the opponent with nothing to do.

A few days later, Ron returned.

The first words he said after getting off the carriage were, "Get ready, the war has begun."

The knights were in high spirits and ready for battle.

The next day.

At the border of the territory, at the border with Fast's territory, twelve knights were sitting on magic scale horses, wearing new armor, shining in the sun, and looking very powerful.

This first battle is just a test for both sides. The lord does not need to play. Behind Abel and others is a high wall. The wall is full of people. They are more than 300 guards of the territory.

They are all Knights Reserves, and Thomas specially allows the guards to watch the battle, so that everyone can see the strength of the Arnold Territory, and feel proud of being a member of the Arnold Territory.

"I will definitely let everyone see my majestic appearance!" Anthony looked back and said with a confident smile.

"It's a joke, your strength is only the last among all of us. If you really want to show the power of the Knights of the Round Table, you have to look at me." Taylor said in a teasing tone. He was previously called by Ron to share the tide with everyone. Abel Others recognized him.

"Hmph, that's why I'm hiding my strength. Just wait, this time is my battle to clear my name!"

The others laughed lightly, but then Sig's eyes narrowed and he said, "Here he comes."

Everyone regained their seriousness and looked straight ahead. They saw hundreds of cavalry appearing at the end of the plane, with a majestic momentum that made people look at them.

"Captain, give the order." Thomas said.

Abel nodded slightly, and then raised the sword in his hand high. The surface of the sword was covered with a layer of light, and a surge of energy surged out, rising into the sky like a pillar of air.

This sword was carefully recast by Hadyi. It already has blue quality and is better than other weapons with the blessing of [Faith].

brush.

The big sword was raised horizontally and pointed directly at the enemy coming in front. Abel shouted in an imposing manner: "Arnold, leader of the Knights of the Round Table under the lord, charge! Kill the enemy!"

"rush!"

Boom!

The magic scale horse galloped forward. Because it was a monster, it traveled extremely fast, several times faster than the war horse led by Fast.

The eyes of the people on the wall widened. There were hundreds of people on the other side, but only twelve of them were as powerful as the enemy, or even stronger.

Twelve Knights of the Round Table!

In just over ten seconds, the two sides charged together, followed by sounds of wailing and fear.

As some people expected, this was a one-sided situation, but the stronger side was the Arnold Territory.

In just one charge, Abel and the others killed more than a dozen of their opponents, and even their armors were cut in half with a sword. Such a scene made the knights in the Fast Territory frightened.

There is a clear gap in equipment between the two parties, and the strength of the Knights of the Round Table is at least second-level professionals, while more than 90% of the opponents are first-level, and some even have just become extraordinary.

There are very few second-level knights, except for one third-level knight, whose overall strength is not much different from that of Gordon Viscounty.

And that third-level knight did not appear on the battlefield today.

Abel and the other twelve men were like wolves among sheep, taking away a living life every time they waved their swords.

This is a cruel and destined war that has no meaning, just meaningless death.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the commander of Fast's leadership immediately asked his knights to form a battle formation to block the enemy's attack.

Sure enough, this strategy was effective, and Abel's efficiency in killing the enemy was reduced by half.

Thomas said solemnly: "This is our first battle. We cannot disgrace the Knights of the Round Table. We must not only win, but also achieve a complete victory."

These words reached the hearts of everyone, and Sig rode out of the team, "I will break their formation."

The enemy commander laughed when he saw this, "If you dare to come here alone, you are really looking for death! Let him in and surround and kill him together!"

I saw Sig arriving more than ten meters in front of the formation, leaping from the back of the magic scale horse, and jumping steadily into the enemy crowd. Then the air condensed, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and the sword in Sig's hand Covered with frost, his eyes flashed, his body leaned forward slightly, and a beam of ice-blue brilliance suddenly appeared.

"Hand-cut!"

Sig used a combat skill, and solid ice appeared at his feet to form a circle with a diameter of five meters. All enemies standing on the solid ice had their feet frozen, and then spread to their bodies, sealing their entire bodies with ice. , and then cut it in half.

This process was very fast. When Sig used the 'ring cut', they were already dead.

Frightened by this horrifying scene, the enemy lost all will to fight. Even if there were orders from the commander, the cavalrymen had no intention of listening and wanted to escape.

"We can't let them go!"

Thomas rode in pursuit, but the opponent's horse could not outrun the magic scale horse. He was quickly caught up and defeated with a sword.

Everyone used their own abilities, like gods coming down to earth, to launch a merciless battle of annihilation against the enemy.

The entire battle lasted less than half an hour, and the actual battle lasted less than ten minutes. The rest of the time was spent chasing people.

The guards on the city wall were dumbfounded. Is this the strength of the Knights of the Round Table? Their hearts are filled with infinite yearning.

As the dust settled on the battlefield, enthusiastic cheers came from the city walls. They all looked excited and their faces turned red with excitement.

"The one who rushed into the crowd seems to be Lord Sig, right? He's so fierce!"

"Yes, I counted. Lord Sig killed the most enemies. At least hundreds of people died under his sword."

Someone said in amazement that after hearing this, the people around him took a breath and felt that this summer was not so hot.

On the battlefield.

There were blood stains on the armor of the twelve people. Frank said with some pity: "There were too many people, and some of them ran away."

"That's enough. The effect we want has been achieved. Running more and running less doesn't matter. Moreover, this is the first game. Viscount Fast will definitely send more people. Next time, there may be that third-level knight. .”

Thomas smiled and said, "Then let the guards clean up the battlefield and let them know the specific results so that they can be spread among the people."

Everyone nodded, but Sig noticed the weapons and armor left by the enemy on the battlefield, and thought about it before moving forward.

Mansion.

Ron received the unexpected news that Viscount Fast sent 315 cavalry, including 5 second-level knights and 310 first-level knights.

32 people escaped, but no one survived.

In order to establish prestige, no prisoners are needed in the first battle.

Ron put down the battle report and raised his lips slightly. Viscount Fast, it feels very uncomfortable to be a gunman. Don't worry, this is just the beginning.

He has arranged a set of service procedures for Viscount Fast to ensure that the other party is satisfied and will come to thank him.
