——The emperor's decree caused a great uproar in the empire.
For honorary nobles without fiefs, this is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as they can obtain territory, they can not only obtain a stable source of income, but also pass on the title of nobles to their descendants.
For those who are not nobles, as long as they can find a qualified partner of the opposite sex, they can also obtain the qualification to participate in this battle, and even have the opportunity to become nobles in the end.
Although the nobles with fiefs cannot directly intervene in the battle, they can instruct their non-heir children to get engaged to the designated honorary nobles and take the opportunity to provide a large amount of financial support.
Therefore, except for those who really have no strength and connections and cannot afford the registration fee, almost all honorary nobles immediately took action.
In just two days, the originally unnoticed Moti City suddenly became lively.
…
“Master, our city office has been extremely busy these days. The supervisors haven’t arrived yet, and the nobles who want to join the war are already all over the city.”
“…Is it so chaotic outside?”
“If it were just them, it would be fine, but the problem is that reporters from several major newspapers and the spiritual vision station in the empire have all come here. Now there are roadblocks and candid photos everywhere, and it’s impossible to control it.”
Because the city is indeed a bit chaotic now, Director Chen of the city office took the initiative to come to the Marquis’s Mansion and report the situation in the city to Aarons.
Seeing the tired look on the face of this resolute man, Aarons couldn’t imagine how lively it was outside.
"That's true, Master. Miss Karin just told me that there are at least ten reporters waiting outside our house."
"... I don't want to chat and laugh with them."
"Before the supervisor arrives, you'd better not leave the Marquis's Mansion. I'm worried that the lurking enemies will take advantage of the chaos to murder you."
Outside are all honorary nobles and servants waiting for the battle to officially begin. No one can guarantee that there won't be enemies who intend to assassinate Aarons.
And Aarons is also very clear that what he fears most now is a sudden attack in the dark. Even with Karin and Xia Ye, he is not absolutely safe.
"Alas, I can't just sit here. Is there any information that can be used?"
"Not yet, but the imperial capital has specially issued a detailed list of the Battle of Glory to each city, and asked the city halls of each city to cooperate... But several cities are recruiting mercenaries in large numbers, and it seems that they are planning to resist the orders of the empire."
"Cardia is really fast."
If a city has already planned to take the opportunity to rebel, the situation will become more chaotic. Aarons had no idea why the emperor would do such a thing at this time, but he thought it might be related to the current situation on the border.
The secretly infiltrating Cadia, the fighting honorary nobles, and the traitors lurking in the shadows... This battle for territory is obviously a huge trap.
As for who will win in the end, it depends on the game between these parties.
"Master, there is news from outside! Please turn on the spiritual vision and check the local channel... The supervisor has arrived!"
Seeing Karin rushing in from outside, Xia Ye turned on the spiritual vision in the room.
[Please note that the convoy entering Moti City is the supervisor of this Zhengrong Battle. The knights responsible for protecting the convoy are... the Royal Guards! Could it be that the supervisor this time is a member of the royal family? 】
"Royal Guards? Sorry, Master, I have to go back to the City Hall as soon as possible."
"You go about your business first. I'll take care of things myself."
The eldest and second princes each have their own territories and will not stay outside for a long time. And the Emperor and Lingqing Wushen are even less likely to come to the border just to watch the show--
So the person who came here is probably the remaining young prince.
[We just asked about the identities of the three supervisors. The first one is the third prince, His Royal Highness Loran Armand--and the other two are the commander of the Fourth Border Defense Corps, Gemaier, and the Minister of Trade, Zexiu. 】
"It's the third prince... Xia Ye, please go to the City Hall as well. I have to find a chance to meet that prince."
"Yes. Miss Karin, please don't let the young master leave home during this period."
"No need to remind me! I don't want to run out and die!"
After receiving the instructions, the beautiful Aries Witch immediately left the Marquis's Mansion. Aarons continued to look at the spiritual vision seriously, and didn't even notice that Els and Meili had come to his side.
[The three supervisors of the Battle of Zhengrong will officially move into Moti City before tonight, and will officially start registering the information of all participants tomorrow morning - BorderThe territory will soon become a battlefield in another sense, and it is still unknown who will eventually belong to it. 】
——It is indeed too early to predict the results in two years.
"Master, are you also going to participate in this battle for territory?"
"Tsk, you scared me... Little boy, do you think I am the kind of person who likes to fight with others?"
"But this should have been your territory... but now it has become a playground for other nobles."
If you want to be angry, Aarons is of course a little angry. After all, this territory that should have been inherited by him was turned into a battlefield full of dangers by the emperor with just one sentence.
Hundreds of honorary nobles with attendants and servants are now ready to fight with others. Aarons, who inherited the title of Marquis, can only act as a spectator temporarily because he has no money to sign up.
This will certainly make him angry.
"Humph, of course I have my own solution. I will make these guys pay back what they stole from me with interest."
Although he was just bragging, Aarons was not going to sit and wait for death.
"You two young guys who are not yet adults don't need to worry about these things now. Learn everything you need to learn first. I don't need a human shield who can't even fight or use magic."
"Hey, Master, are you hinting at something?"
"None of your business!"
Karin's timely teasing eased the tense atmosphere a lot, and after Aarons adjusted his mood, he began to seriously think about his own countermeasures.
He must participate in this game, and he must win to the end - in order to achieve this goal, he must first find allies who are willing to cooperate with him... or shady people.
"Kalin, you should also get ready. I'm going to call the city hall first... If there are no other questions, I must meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince tonight."
-- But before officially participating in the competition, he had to find out the referee's attitude.
