Proof of the Sun King
Chapter 232: ,I disagree!
It's not that Ryan didn't try to recruit Estelle before, the half-elf was always very arrogant, and he said that he must be a knight.
The position of the ranger knight, Ryan, cannot be given casually. The strength of the half-elf has no way to convince the public, and he has not made much credit. It is easy to be dissatisfied with other knights when he is named a knight, especially Estelle is a long-range. , The knights of Brittany all advocate that the devout lady believers are to melee, and the best reward for the lady is to rush into the formation with a lance and kill the enemy with a sharp sword.
So in the case of no agreement, Ryan's recruitment of Estelle naturally fell through.
As a result, now Estelle and his half-elf companions took the initiative to ask for shelter, which made Ryan very interesting.
Why are you arrogant and then respectful?
"Can I talk in another place, my baron?" Estelle was a little embarrassed, obviously he could see the doubts and jokes in Ryan's eyes.
"Okay, let's go to the meeting room on the second floor to talk, Olika? Prepare some delicious food, don't let my friend be wronged." Ryan instructed the dark spirit maid to prepare some drinks and food.
Five minutes later, in the parlour on the second floor, Estelle and Dess were two half-elves sitting, and Orika poured a glass of wine for each of them, served white bread and baked bacon: "Please Slow use."
"Thank you!" Estelle felt that he had a good relationship with Ryan. He used a silver fork to fork the bacon and served it with white bread. His friend Dais also learned the same way.
It started to rain outside the castle again. The rain hit the wooden windows and made a banging noise. The icy air blew into the reception room. , the Baron himself sat on the throne, waiting for the half-elf to answer.
"It's like this, Ryan." After being silent for a while, Estelle finally said with a wry smile: "You should also know that last winter, there was a war in the forest, and the war between the shadowy war beasts and the wood elves fought. A terrible war?"
"Yes, I know." Ryan expressed his understanding. He spread his hands, indicating that he fully understood.
"Dyce and I both participated in this war. We joined the war as individual rangers." Estelle was a little angry when he talked about this. The bow was untied, put on the ground, and expressed to Ryan that he had no ill intentions.
Seeing this, Dais also took down the compound bow behind him. This compound bow is full of the power of sparks. Under the action of magic, it can shoot straight arrows or spark explosive arrows that penetrate the tree trunk: "Hello. , Lord Ryan, I'm Dess, a former ranger, I serve the Woodland Council, the Wood Elf lords of the Woodland, as you can see, Estelle and I were friends who grew up together ."
"Well, I understand, then what? Since you serve the Woodland Council, why did you come to my territory to seek shelter?" Ryan raised his palm and motioned Estelle and his friends to continue.
"As you know, Ryan, whether it's wood elves or high elves, they don't have a good attitude towards us half-elves. They always think of us when they need us, and treat us as outsiders when they don't. , when we can serve the woodland lords, we are elves, and when we can't create value, we are humans." Estelle sighed: "In this war, Dais and I fought desperately, and together we killed a beastman hissing. It's called Shaman, and according to the agreement between us and the Woodland Council, there is such a trophy, and the Woodland Council should have a place for us."
"The Woodland Council must have eaten back its promise." Ryan understood what the wood elves thought.
"That's it." Ranger Daiss also sighed, because of the hood and face towel, Ryan couldn't see his expression: "Since I worked for the Woodland Council as a ranger, I have always done the hardest work, Doing the dirtiest and most tiring work, in order to assassinate a beastman leader, I can stay in a tree for three days. After that, they didn't even give me the treatment of a standard ranger."
"So after the Woodland Council reneged on its own words, Dess and I had a big fight with the elders of the Woodland Council." Estelle added: "It seems that we killed the Beastman's screaming shaman for the sake of it. The king of the forest and the queen of the forest did not punish us, but we couldn't stay in the forest any longer, so I thought of you."
"So I'm still a backup." Ryan spit out.
"Don't say anything else, I'm a ranger at the peak of the elite, and I'm already very close to the legend, just a little bit, Dais is even a mid-level ranger in the legend, his bow and arrow can reach 300 range. Mi, I'm a little worse, and it's no problem to shoot through plate armor at 240 meters, you just need to arrange accommodation for us and give us better treatment than sergeants." Estelle is the first time in Lane. In front of him, he said in a low voice, "We have nowhere to go for the time being."
"Don't you have any savings?" Surprisingly, Ryan did not agree. On the contrary, the baron continued to ask questions.
These half-elves are too arrogant and take themselves too seriously, do they really think they are irreplaceable characters? Ryan is going to hit them today.
"This" Estelle did not expect things to develop like this, he hesitated for a while, his face was red and white, and then he lowered his head and said the truth: "In the forest, we rarely use currency, all Barter, the savings are really not much, I still have a batch of goods on hand, maybe I can sell some money, but neither Dais nor I want to live on horseback anymore. We have enough of that kind of life. Well, so, please, Ryan, my friend, you can take us in, we can squeeze a house if we can't, and the salary of the sergeant is also acceptable."
"Yes, Lord Ryan, please, there are many people in the forest who don't like us, but if you take us in, even the most demanding woodland lord will not say anything." Dais also pleaded.
The two half-elves were low enough, and Ryan finally nodded: "Okay, you are my sergeant from today, I will arrange a new two-story house for you to live in, Esther. I'm in charge of helping me train the crossbowmen of the Genn Archer Company, teaching them how to reload, aim, and pull the trigger, Mr. Dess, just work harder and help me scout the Bergerac thieves in the Sharon Forest. the movement of the group.”
"Yes!"
Starting today, the two half-elves have settled in the Baron of Jean. As Lane expected, the wood elves didn't say anything after learning about this. On the contrary, the woodland lords Vilodis and Delina also brought some food. Condolences to the two half-elves: "Lord Ryan, I'm sorry to trouble you, you also understand that their position in the forest is very embarrassing and difficult to handle."
"Is that how Esley treats his hero like this?" Ryan said rudely.
"Lord Ryan, Eslay is not what you imagined." Darina tried to explain to Ryan: "Eslay is divided into twelve territories, and not all the local tree spirits in all territories welcome the elves to work together. Living, not all territories are willing to trade with humans. In fact, even if the elves have settled in Athel Loren for thousands of years, many native dryads in the forest still do not welcome us. There are also differences in attitudes, some think the half-elves are our people, and some think that the half-elves are a vicious creature and a curse that should be destroyed."
This is normal. Ryan has to admit that what Delina said is also reasonable. Just like the Duke of Montfort in Britannia who hates all creatures except humans, there are also great nobles like himself who are willing to hire dwarves. There can also be various opinions within the wood elves. Whether they are willing to accept the half-elves is their own freedom, and it is also the freedom of the wood elves.
"I understand."
The time entered December, and sure enough, there was action on the king's side.
In the master room, Ryan, Suria, Katzenberg, Veronica, and Teresa were sitting. They were discussing the information they had just obtained, and Olika was standing behind Ryan.
Ryan sat on the main seat, and the female knight sat on his right very naturally. Today's Suria was wearing a pure white pearl bifurcated high-neck ribbed dress, showing her elegant and moving temperament. Her long blond curly hair hangs down from her shoulders, her long legs are hidden by the skirt, only a pair of white strappy high heels and a pink instep wrapped in gray stockings can be seen.
The female knight sat beside Ryan like this, and then said directly in a negotiating tone: "The king's order has been passed on by the messenger on the way to Jin's Land, and it will arrive in the afternoon."
Both Veronica and Katzenberg cast awe and respect towards Sulia. In fact, there are a lot of gossip that indicate that Sulia becomes Ryan's wife is a certainty.
Katzenberg, of course, absolutely supports Marquis Surya. The housekeeper is from Winford College. He has a strong Winford color. Of course, he is willing to see his young lady marrying Ryan.
And for Veronica, the witch is very clear that it is absolutely impossible to become Ryan's wife based on her background and Ryan's identity, so the witch also respects Sulia very much, because in the In getting along, Marquis Surya's generous, gentle, and non-jealous attitude left a deep impression on Veronica, and the witch could ensure that she could continue to stay in the living space beside Ryan.
So Ryan found it painfully that, from his subordinate knights to his butler and tax collector, and even Veronica, it seems that they have been conquered by the female knight and acquiesced to the relationship between the two, only Theresa Before she could figure out the situation, she tried to sit next to Ryan before, only to find that she was preempted by the female knight, and she still looked at Suria with annoyed and unwilling eyes.
Perhaps among the Baronies of Jean, she is the only one who still hasn't figured out what's going on.
"Lane, even my father has to consider the consequences of refusing the king's order, but you must not go to the desert. The expedition that went to the desert last time was like the world evaporated, no one has seen them again, and you and The trade of wood elves and the dwarf blacksmith workshop you established were built on your personal charm and prestige. The king has no right to let you give up. This time, father and Lord Bethmond and Lord Bodrick They will all be on your side!" The female knight brought this news, and she was a little uneasy: "Nevertheless, the effect of disobeying the king's order is still bad, you have to be mentally prepared."
"It doesn't matter, I have a way to deal with it." Ryan said calmly, it seemed that the Baron was not in a hurry at all.
"Lion, what will you do?" Surya then asked. The female knight was very concerned about Ryan, and her tone was even a little anxious: "It's not wrong for you to be the lady's god-chosen champion, but the king's order can't fault it."
"This question is not difficult at all, Sulia. When the special envoy of the king comes in the afternoon, you will accompany me to see him, and then you will know what I will do." Ryan nodded confidently and ended the issue. .
In the afternoon, the kingdom's messenger came, and the baron took all his subordinates to receive the king's order in the hall of the castle.
Lane, the messenger who came to announce the king's decree, knew that he was the father of the late Marquis of Anchy during the war of chivalry, Count Bonoire Desmond of Ganter.
The king's envoy raised his chin, steaming from his nostrils, and said impatiently, "Baron Jean Maccador? Please come out and accept the king's appointment!"
Ryan stopped talking. He lowered his head, walked to Bonova, knelt down on one knee, and listened.
"Now order Baron Jean, Ryan Malcador to immediately stop the trade activities with the wood elves, immediately stop the operation of the dwarf blacksmith workshop, expel these dwarf refugees, immediately stop the operation of the hospital, receive it by the king's special envoy, and immediately stop exercising The power of the baron, immediately set off for the capital, waiting for the next dispatch!"
"There is another important order. The king intends to form a Nicohara Desert Expeditionary Force. It is scheduled to set off on the 5th of next month, and Ryan Macado will become the general of the expedition force~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Please Ryan Macado. Get ready to go now!"
Two consecutive orders from the king were issued, and one was faster than the other. The king ordered Ryan to leave immediately.
After reading the two volumes of the king's decree, Count Bonois looked at Ryan with hatred. To this day, he still felt that his son's death was caused by Ryan, so he deliberately prolonged his voice, and then shouted angrily: "Ryan! Do not accept the king's orders!"
"I won't accept the king's order, my earl." Ryan didn't take the two rolls of parchment at all. The baron reached out and opened the two rolls of parchment and let them fall to the ground.
The atmosphere in the castle hall was stagnant, and both Ryan's subordinates and the female knight Suria who came to watch looked at Ryan's actions in disbelief.
"What are you doing?!" Bonova pointed to Ryan's nose, and he growled at the baron in disbelief: "Do you know what you're doing? You're acting like a rebellion! Even if you're a lady's champion, you can't Do you want to rebel?"
"Now, immediately, pick up the king's order for me, and beg me, and I can pretend it didn't happen." Bonova sneered a few times: "If you don't want to be declared treason, hurry up, my baron, you time is running out.”
Ryan also laughed, instead, he stood up: "I won't do it because someone disagrees."
"Anyone disagree? Who? Who disagrees?" Bonois sneered again and again, the king's messenger and Baron Jean confronted each other: "This is Brittany, who can oppose the king?"
At this moment, a cold female voice came from behind the hall of the castle, and a beautiful figure with endless sacred majesty slowly walked out from inside.
"I don't agree~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Do you have to find the latest chapter by yourself? You, wechat follow the beauty editor to help you find the book! It's really good to read books and flirt with girls.
