Chapter 135: Trike (3)
After an overwhelood news and bad news The good neas that Siegfried had been baited as planned and as Viscount Sabian had said, was dealt a big blow The bad neas…
“What? Repeat that for me one more time”
Trike repeated himself when Viscount Sabian frowned and asked hifried is a Master”
“What nonsense are you…”
Viscount Sabian fell into a slight panic For hiist Viscount Sabian thought of hifried’s brilliance wasn’t any less than hifried was even better than himself But how could such a person have reached the level of a Master? How could one person have that much talent and ability?
“You’re really sure about this?”
“He blocked an Aura Arrow He fell off his horse because it was an unexpected attack, but if he expected it froly because of his pride, but everyone knehat he was saying
“If once wasn’t enough, can’t you try again?”
If Siegfried was a Master, it was eventhat Trike hadn’t been able to kill hio, it wasn’t Trike who defended himself but Milton who defended Trike
“While Trike’s Aura Arrow is powerful, he can only use it a couple times a day”
But…”
“And if the first surprise attack failed, then it’s likely he’d have avoided or blocked the second attack ht decision to retreat without hesitating”
When Milton said that, there was no way Viscount Sabian could say anythingthat he could reprimand Trike about Viscount Sabian was only stubborn because he was disappointed that so he had been so certain about, Trike’s arrow, had failed Above all, for Siegfried to be a Master fried really is an extre inforfried for a while now, but he hadn’t known that Siegfried was a Master That’s hoell Siegfried had hidden that fact; of course he had hidden it from his enefried hadn’t hidden his Master status, there were a couple moments where he would have used his abilities But what could he have been looking for by hiding that fact even from his allies? Viscount Sabian hated that he had only found out today
“My Lord, did you already know this?”
Although Viscount Sabian’s question didn’t specify a topic or subject, Milton knehat he was asking
“I had a feeling Ah, he’s ambitious Doesn’t matter that he’s a Republican or whatever, I felt like he was born into this era to rile things up”
At those words, Viscount Sabian let out a deep sigh
“Why didn’t you say anything, My Lord?”
“You wouldn’t have believed h evidence to prove it either”
“That’s…u to say Before they had been defeated at Litinque Castle, he had underestiht about it now, it had been a ridiculous ment He knew better now; he finally understood why Milton was so wary of Siegfried
Siegfried was like a beast lurking in the wild grasses of the Republic He was a beast that was hiding in the grass with only his eyes visible,it impossible to see exactly what kind of beast he was That’s why Viscount Sabian had thought he’d be a wolf at bestBut today, he had gotten a glifried wasn’t a wolf He was a clever beast that knew to hide hih
Clap!
Seeing Viscount Sabian’s thought process getting progressively negative, Milton cal the attention back to himself
“Let’s think about this positively We found out what the enereat just by bringing back this information Well done, Trike”
“Thank you, My Lord But I’ve failed…”
He was asha praised when he had failed in his ht decision to retreat at the right moment Thanks to that, ere able to find out the infor”
In that sense, Trike had done very well Milton stood up and drew his sword as he spoke to him
“Kneel down, Trike Low”
Trike knelt and Milton lightly tapped both of his shoulders with the sword
“Trike Low, I award you the title of Baron and give you 10 Destroy bred horses as well as 500 gold as a reward”
“Thank you, My Lord”
Milton gave Trike a big reward Although knighthood was al a noble, it didn’t have the sa awarded the title of Baron was a huge reward When Milton had become a Marquis, he had the power to confer titles of lower nobilities, but he was always careful about This was because by conferring a title of nobility to soive them a fief So far, Milton had done this only once before for Jerome Taker
Milton had awarded Jeroiven Jeroht seem a bit pathetic to award to a Master, but it had been the best Milton could do then Jeroinally been the heir to a Marquis, it held greaterfor him to accept the title of Viscount from the Lord he had chosen to follow Since then, Trike was the first person Milton had awarded with a title after Jeroive you a territory once we return back home”
“Thank you, My Lord”
Trike see He had originally been a mercenary so he seemed particularly touched to becoratulations, Sir Low”
“No, shouldn’t we call him Baron Lo?”
“Hahaha… once we return, you should treat all of us to a meal”
Milton looked on with satisfaction as the other Knights surrounded Trike to congratulate hi as planned’
Milton had awarded one of his reat contribution to the war but also to bring up the reatly burdened by the fact that Siegfried was a Master If the command structure was relaxed, then that relaxation would be trickled down to the soldiers That’s why Milton had conferred the title of Baron to Trike in front of everyone else It had been to raise the mood of his command structure And just as Milton expected, the atratulating Trike
In that happy atht out Viscount Sabian
“Sabian”
“Yes, My Lord?”
“Are there any changes to our future plans?”
