With the departure of Sean and Nolo, power naturally fell to William.
Therefore, when Marquis Flores arrived at Simon castle, only William could meet the great man who was probably still above the Dukes in the whole Ryan kingdom. Of course, with the strength of the void duchy in this blood flag revenge war, even if you don't pay attention to the Marquis, naturally no one will say anything. After all, today's void duchy is a country with the strength of standing on an equal footing with King Ryan.
However, William did not neglect the Marquis of Flores.
Soon, this trusted confidant of his majesty Engels met William in the huge conference room of Simon castle.
In the conference room, besides William, there was Diana Simon, the only survivor of the Simon family. Of course, now her surname is no longer Simon. Sean originally wanted her to follow her mother's surname, but her mother is just a civilian, so naturally she won't have a surname - in the miracle continent, it's good for civilians to have a name. Ethnic groups like the northern barbarians don't even have a name, whether it's Abaza, anno or Quik, It's all Sean's name.
So Diana doesn't have a last name yet.
Marquis Flores saw Diana in the conference room, and his face was slightly stagnant, but he hid well and almost died in a flash. William and Diana, two fighting idiots, naturally would not have such keen attention to find this trace of consternation of Flores. However, marquis Flores silently raised the evaluation of Diana to a higher level in his heart. People like him who are specially responsible for collecting all kinds of intelligence and performing some underground tasks for his Majesty King ingus naturally know very well what Diana means here.
In fact, seeing Diana's happy face hidden under her calm face, she knew that the other party also knew what it meant.
”Long time no see, Lord Flores.” After seeing the Marquis Flores enter the conference room, William, who was originally dealing with some military issues, stood up at the first time, and then hurried to meet him.
The Marquis of Flores naturally dared not neglect.
Perhaps on the other side of the aristocracy, he can put on a high appearance, and even in the face of those dukes, the Marquis can put on an equal footing. However, in the face of William, the Marquis did not dare to put his position in the slightest, because he knew what kind of position the young man had in the void duchy. It was a real powerful figure. It was said that even grand duke Sean listened to the instructions of the void giant.
Therefore, the Marquis of Flores did not dare to put on a high appearance, but equally warmly welcomed him and took the initiative to shake hands with William. In particular, he could hear that William called him ”Lord Flores” rather than ”Lord Marquis”, and the intimacy in it represented a very different meaning.
”I think Lord William, you seem to have a lot of important things to deal with, so I won't be polite to you.” Marquis Flores glanced at many documents on the conference table and knew what William was dealing with at this time.
The Simon family is also a family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and its history may even be above the Ryan Kingdom, so there must be a lot of good things in this family. War, of course, is also money. No matter what the name of the void principality is, let alone defeat, but after victory, it is natural to obtain benefits from the defeated side to fill the huge capital consumption hole of the war.
After all, the Duchy of void is also a vassal state of the kingdom of lane anyway, and this time it is still at war with the nobles of the kingdom of lane, so it is naturally impossible to occupy the territory, unless the defeated party pays compensation in the form of land cutting compensation. However, the Duchy of void this time is a blood flag revenge war. All the rebels along the way were ordered to be killed by William, so it is natural that there can be no phenomenon such as land cutting compensation in these territories.
In this way, these ownerless territories are naturally returned to the Ryan royal family. Then if the void principality wants to get benefits from it to fill the huge financial hole for launching the war, it can only start from the secret coffers of these lords' families or other aspects.
This is also an unspoken rule in the war of the same country.
But the premise of this unspoken rule is that no royal people are present.
As a guest, you can't take the host's things in front of the host, can you?
Marquis Flores is not a royal man on the surface, but in fact, everyone knows that he has always represented the royal family. So it's very subtle for him to appear here at Simon castle at the moment. As a big man who can be responsible for the underground intelligence of Ryan, how can the Marquis of Flores not know his situation.
It's just that he has his own way.
After he had said that, marquis Flores stopped walking, so he could not see clearly what the documents on the conference table were. So the documents on the conference table are the internal documents of the family of Simon or the military documents of the empty country, which has the final say by the Marquis of Loris.
