“I have gathered all of you here to announce so important”
Rhode stood on his feet Lydia had returned to Golden City after co her ‘mission’ while MP Danny and his subordinates left with the unconscious Mist Sword Saint like stray dogs That clown from the Parliament had no more value to Rhode and noasn’t the ti azed at Rhode with stern expressions after sensing his serious tone Marlene squinted and focused on Rhode with full attention because, as the heir of the Senia Fa clearly Lize sat beside her and she appeared anxious and nervous Even though she wasn’t aware of what had happened, she could still recall Lydia’s words froathered everylady felt that things weren’t looking too good
Anne rocked her chair back and forth as though she wasn’t concerned about what Rhode’s announce as she followed Rhode’s instructions, she wouldn’t get into trouble
Perhaps Lapis had been working in the workshop for too long; she seeh she hadn’t been involved with the affairs of the outside life Her eyes swirled blankly like she was lost in thoughts…
Co ladies, Joey, Randolf, Shauna, and Marfa were looking uild th couldn’t be compared to the others Instead, they were mercenaries who e his liquor flask beside the at Rhode with dissatisfaction was another matter
Canary, Mini Bubble Gu a show They sat on the other side leisurely and didn’t see Or perhaps, they already kneas going to happen next
They were Rhode’s confidants
Rhode twitched his brows as he faced all the different expressions and thoughts that manifested on their faces “Perhaps you oing to say this onceto the subordinates of the Reformist Party had launched an ambush on the Brenhill Fortress and occupied it And this , they sent a letter in the name of the ‘Southern Federation Parlia away fro an independent country”
“…” The entire rooht that this was just an opening speech and Rhode would be getting into the important details soon But Rhode shut his mouth after the last sentence and the entire room fell into an aard silence
After a few moments, Lize stood up from her chair frantically and she accidentally shi+fted the chair with her legs screech shook everyone back to their senses as though they were pricked by a needle to their buttocks “What?! The Southerners are breaking away to be independent?”
“Sir Rhode! Is this true? You oodness What are the Southerners thinking! Royal Highness Lydia will definitely oppose their shaestion!”
“T-This is… simply…!”
This sudden news stunned everyone apart from those who knew that this would happen and those ere erous battles in their daily lives, those were, after all, battles, and not a war Moreover, they couldn’t accept that this broke out in their own country War and internal conflicts were soends to them and they weren’t mentally prepared for this at all
Rhode didn’t stop their clamor Instead, he used this opportunity to observe his men Marlene had no expression, but that didn’t hts about it She was the heir of the Senia Faardless of the results of this internal war, it would affect the future of the Senia Fae extent It was impossible for her to not be concerned about it
Lize appeared pale and verythat she had nothing to do with the King’s Party, Rhode knew that some matters couldn’t be counted on her words This ’s Party, so naturally, she would be evenmen like Randolf and Joey, they couldn’t accept this truth at all Not only them, but even the usually collected Marfa and Old Walker knitted their brows as though it were the end of the world As for Lapis, she see on
It was apparent that the different attitudes of his dom Marlene represented the nobles and she was ’s Party ’s Party and the wellbeing of the nation As for Joey, Randolf, and even an ordinarya lot Instead, they were feeling uncertain about their future Even though the h life, most of the environments that they lived in were calm and tranquil But now, this serene and peaceful land was on the verge of devastation Unlike Marlene, they couldn’t involve themselves with the benefits of noble families Not to mention, they couldn’t see the problem from a country’s perspective like Lize The trivial and ordinary matters hat they orried about
On the other hand, a stay-at-hoirl like Lapis would only be concerned about these ht, cut it out,” Rhode gestured and stopped their conversations “Everything is the truth Royal Highness Lydia is rushi+ng back to Golden City to handle the after that we can help with Before Royal Highness Lydia left, she co’s Party for iven ht shall step on the battlefield and fight for the King’s Party As the representative guild of Paphield, our first et ready for the next possible attack All of you shall becoside me”
Henchmen
Many of their eyes sparkled as soon as they heard this word
Mercenary didn’t need to lead an adventurous life In fact, what they needed themore practical What did one need in one’s life if it wasn’t money, fame, and women? Was it world peace? Or freedom and equality?
Tothe henchmen of soroup, e investment And now, their investments had paid off
They were aware that Rhode was conferred a feudal title froh mercenaries couldn’t differentiate between Baron, Earl, and Marquis, there was so that they were absolutely sure about These people were definitely figures that were high and hty and they could only look up to them And now, since Rhode had become a Baron, didn’t they also become the henchmen of a noble?
The mercenaries were incomparably excited, but they didn’t know that the Baron rank that Rhode was conferred actually had a historic significance—he was the first ever mercenary conferred a Baron rank in the history of the Munn Kingdoh mercenaries could contribute a lot, they were rarely honored Besides, the proud and arrogant nobles couldn’t accept the vulgar, insolentas theh the Cole Falcon and Purple Lily had served the King’s Party for years, none of them had been conferred a feudal rank
Apart from Rhode’s favorable qualities, his contributions to the nation were outstanding Moreover, with Marlene and Lize by his side, he had gained a lot of political support Due to this reason, the nobles didn’t have any objections to Lydia conferring the Baron rank to Rhode After all, in the eyes of the nobles, Rhodeand since that was the case, it wasn’t hu for them to invite Rhode into their nobility circle
