Hearing what Flores said, Sean looked at each other deeply, and then sighed: ”I also know the difficulty of your majesty. In fact, I don't mean to blame your majesty, or the kingdom of Ryan. When I learned of his Majesty's actions, I was really relieved. No matter what considerations, I must be grateful. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the clan controlled by the fenlistine family. ”

Sean later guessed that he had perfect control over his territory for hundreds of years, and even the surrounding territories had been infiltrated and controlled. He didn't think he could break through the siege so easily. Even if there is the whole mobilization and tacit cooperation of the void, it is bound to be a tragic and bloody road. If there is no infiltration and assistance from larger forces behind it, Sean doesn't believe it anyway.

Therefore, the only explanation is that the Marquis of Flores won the nod of King Ryan, so he spared no effort to help.

”His Majesty's decision has been made.” The Marquis of Flores whispered, and then took out a clerical document from his arms and handed it to Sean. ”The finnistine family will be cut off, the title of hereditary Viscount will be retained, and the fief will be moved to the north. The davigo family will be stripped of the title of nobility, completely become civilians, and prohibit future generations from obtaining titles. As for the family of sebarox, the fief will remain unchanged, but the title will be reduced to hereditary count. ”

For a noble family, demotion is not a terrible punishment. Anyway, as long as there is war, there will always be a chance to move forward. However, if you are forced to change the fiefdom, the punishment will be very serious - of course, it may also be a private war problem. Because of the defeat compensation, you need to pay the fiefdom you have worked hard for many years.

The removal of the dovigo family from the title of nobility and demotion to civilians is indeed a great punishment, more serious than the forced change of the fiefdom by the finistin family. There are even three generations of descendants who can't get the title. This is tantamount to announcing that the dovigo family will never want to mix in the Ryan kingdom. Basically, it's no different from the exile of the dovigo family, but it's just a little better in name.

As for why the punishment of the sebarox family is so light, Sean can also understand. After all, the silent mountain has a scale of 40000 people. With such a stable team, you can still train a silent mountain in some time. Of course, the name of ”Ryan's strongest infantry regiment” will certainly be lost. At the thought of this, Sean envied these aristocrats with solid foundation.

”I see.” Sean nodded slightly to accept the result. In fact, the severity of the punishment for these hostile families had long been expected by Sean. However, in his previous discussion with Haila and others, he probably needed to protest, but he didn't expect to say anything, The wise king who claimed to be second only to the first king Ryan in Ryan's history made such a move.

In terms of soothing people's hearts, it is indeed unparalleled.

But the next moment, Sean's eyes fell on the document pushed by the Marquis of Flores.

”This is another gift for you.” Flores emphasized the word ”you” in calling Sean, which surprised Sean's face.

All along, Sean and Flores have never been so polite to each other, although they are polite to each other. With a little doubt, Sean tore open the fire paint on the file bag and took out some papers inside.

This is a contract document in duplicate, or a standard magic contract, that is, an official document recognized by the God of contract. Once this document is signed, it means that both parties will act in accordance with this contract document in the future.

But what really stunned Sean was the words printed on the top of the contract.

The Duchy of void.

”This is...” Sean looked down and found that the Ryan king ingers Ryan had signed his name on the contract.

”This is another compensation from your Majesty the king.” Marquis Flores smiled. ”Congratulations, sir Sean. I will call you Duke of void in the future.”

”Duke of the void...” Sean looked at the contract document in his hand in some amazement. He never thought that the king Ryan gave him such a big gift, which means that he fully allowed Sean's independent actions in the territory, including the construction and scale of the army, the issuance of money, the adjustment of taxes The import and export adjustment of trade and various laws that can be decided by themselves.

As long as Sean signs this contract document, he can do whatever he wants in addition to paying a certain sacrifice to the Ryan Kingdom every year. Even if he launches a military action against the Ryan nobles, he will not be under the command and command of the Ryan Kingdom since then!

The Principality of vanity.

This development seems to be much faster than Sean expected.
