Rise In Calradia

"Your Excellency Elaine, I have said more than once that the patience of His Royal Highness is limited, but you have not been able to give him a satisfactory answer." Elaine is sitting at the lord’s mansion in Pegund’s lord’s residence. An angry messenger was received on the seat.

"But I have said more than once, Lord Ron, I have removed all the roadblocks from Pegunde to Veluga. Tariffs will be reduced and exempted for the caravans of His Royal Highness. I will also send the grain from the warehouse of Pegunde. Halfway to Veluga, he also cleaned up the bandit strongholds that had harassed his people. Even the knights that His Highness personally canonized were nothing more than that. What else does His Highness want to accuse me of?" Eleon leaned on the chair, some Asked dissatisfiedly.

"Don't forget what you promised at the beginning. You will become a loyal vassal of your Highness. But now your Highness has gathered troops to guard the city. Where are your troops? What you said about the hundreds of Serendil and Pegunde Where are the soldiers? Are they cowardly cowards who dare not face the enemy's spears?" The messenger saw Elaine's arrogant attitude, his manners and speeches still maintained that neither humble nor arrogant, but the sentence had already revealed it. A little anger and threat.

"Yes, if your Highness allows me to be accepted by King Harous, the title of baron, and take over Serendil and Pegunde, then I will be his loyal vassal." Elaine didn't worry. Slowly said: "But please tell me, when will your Highness fulfill his promise and let me get the status of baron lord? Let me take over everything in these two places? Ask for full payment before the goods arrive. This Isn’t it a bit too much? I’m sorry to say that, but if I don’t have the authority granted to me by the king, how can I serve His Highness?"

Eleon said it very politely, but the meaning was very unfriendly. He made it clear that he didn't want to pay a high price because of empty promises, even if the other party was a prince.

"Really? I thought that His Excellency Eleon was a brave knight as rumored, but I didn't expect you to bargain with a greedy businessman here over the orders from the prince." The messenger listened to Airey. En's words coldly snorted, and instead of answering him directly, he used words to excite him instead.

"Businessman? I really hate businessmen. Those guys are profiteering, and honor is not as good as a few coppers in their hearts." Elaine curled his lips in disdain, and said the businessman. The first image that emerged in his mind was Manid. , The conflicts between the two were so much that they couldn't look down on each other, which made Eleon have no good impressions of all the businessmen.

"But even these cunning merchants have something to praise. Smart merchants spend all their money to earn more dinars, so they can survive and become richer and richer."

Elaine stood up, went to the cabinet on the side and took out a can of fine wine. It was the wine that Byron had placed there. It was a fine wine that even he was reluctant to drink.

Then the butler who hid behind the door and looked out from the crack of the door immediately waved his hand. The servant behind him immediately raised the dinner plate and followed the butler into the living room very politely.

"It's time for dinner, sir."

The butler said very politely.

"Your Royal Highness's loyal messenger, would you like to dine together? I have good wine and the wild boar that I just called yesterday." Elaine smiled and looked at Ron, and the other party quickly noticed his visits. meaning.

"No, since you said that, then I will go back and report to your Highness. I wish you a pleasant meal, Your Excellency Eleon."

The messenger Ron saluted him very gracefully, but his expression was cold like a stone, and the last "Your Excellency" also deliberately increased his tone, seeming to remind him not to care how much power he has today, without the help of the prince. Elaine can only be a knight, don't want to be a baron lord. For a prince, it is easy to do this.

After the messenger left, Elaine certainly did not enjoy the food as satisfying as he said earlier. Although the table was full of delicacies made of game and fine wine, he had no appetite at all, and he didn't even want to eat knives and forks. Touch, just squinting his arms and thinking about what to do next.

Everything should have gone smoothly. Rodok’s army again began to gather to retake Veluga. In order to prepare for the defense, Prince Harauu finally decided to make concessions to Eleon, saying that he could win the baron’s title and two for him. The fief of this town does not ask the whereabouts of Byron’s wealth, as long as he swears allegiance to the prince, whether it is the king or the prince, it is equal to an extra help rather than trouble.

Eleon was very happy. At this time, he had basically stabilized his form and began to claim himself as the successor of Byron. He persuaded Bandak to continue to serve himself, and promised him a generous salary to keep his current After repeated hesitation, Bandak still agreed to the position of Captain of the Crossbowman. At this time, he had no hope of Byron's survival. In a similar way, Eleon did it several times. He exchanged his original village fief for Rolf's support, isolated Desaivi's troops, and forced her to make concessions for supplies. Except that Kreis was always fascinated and didn't show much to him, the old members left by Byron basically acquiesced in his ruling power.

So he moved into Byron's previous residence, where he lived as a lord, changed some of the laws, and assembled troops and supplies to respond to the prince's call. Everything went smoothly, until Fattis and Jamila returned with the rumor...

This situation was completely reversed. Although rumors alone were not enough to prove anything, Byron’s old army in the south split into two groups at once~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Desaiwei directly found Fatis to join. After losing his team, Bandak began to hesitate again. The Sirindil squires who had originally expressed support for him under his control suddenly fell into the arms of Fatis, because Fatis said that he wanted to restore Byron before being in Surin. Dir's decree, not to mention the local garrison sergeants are basically Fatis people.

Although Pegunde currently stores more food products, Byron’s elite troops, that is, the cavalry officers of the Fatis family and their cavalry, are mostly controlled by Fatis, and the peony mercenaries are also more inclined. In fighting for the kind-hearted Fatis (another reason is that Jamila kept a key to Byron's cash box), the quality of the troops Eleon could provide for the prince dropped a lot.

And Prince Harau was guilty of the same old arrogance as his father at this time, and something that could have been negotiated forced him to screw it up. He still insisted that Eleon fulfilled his previous promises, otherwise he would not fulfill his promises.

Eleon was once again in a dilemma, and this time it was worse than last time.

On the other side, in Serendil, Fatis and the others are also considering their next actions.
