Bayer loosened his grip on the reins and his warhorse gradually slowed down to a halt He turned around and gazed at the long, orderly rows of soldiers struggling forward The thick snow had obstructed the arh the ten-runted Moreover, if it wasn’t for the leading troops who cleared the path, perhaps the supply chariots at the back would be caught in the snow entirely
“Old ht calared fiercely, which the young ed his for therather slowly The weather is great We should move faster”
Bayer shook his head and let out a long sigh Then, he shi+fted his gaze to the sky The weather was sunny and cloudless at theanytiood news in the most recent days
“No probleh tiuys in front work hard enough”
Unlike Bayer who had put on a stern expression, the young ht chestnut-colored short hair and his face resembled Bayer’s to a certain extent Bayer cursed inwardly at the sloppy character of this younger son of his He thought that his son would learn seriousness and discipline by sending him to the military However, he learned the craftiness of the experienced soldiers, which left Bayer in a headache Even though this youngmilitary service, Bayer stubbornly believed that his son was sie matter for Bayer to lead the arainst the Undead Creatures’ infiltrations If it was possible, Bayer hoped to not bring his troublesothat his fiancée, Serena, would be joining as ah he was still as rude as ever, he didn’t overstep the bounds of as proper
“Our responsibilities for this e You need to hide your bad habits and not screw things up, Frederick!”
Bayer pulled down his mask and berated On the other hand, Frederick turned around and secretly pulled a face Then, he turned the horse around
“By the way, Serena, do you knohat kind of place is the Land of Atonement Fortress? Gosh Don’t tell me that it is an out-of-the-way uncivilized territory”
“As a noble heir, you should watch your words, Frederick”
The young lady wrapped in plush azed at her fiancé’s frivolous s
“Although Land of Atonement is desolate, it isn’t located in the hinterland I’ve heard from merchants that it has a tall, h ht be reliable since the fortress has defended against the Undead Creatures’ raid”
“That’s interesting… By the way, I heard that there is a popular ‘Mercenary Overlord’, right? Serena, you should have seen that Sir Overlord since you’ve participated in the Dragon Soul Cereroup Does he look like a beauty just like the rumors mentioned?”
“You should watch your lared “That Sir Overlord isn’t one who is nice I advise you to not poke fun of his face because even your father can’t protect you if anything happens”
“I know I know I’ to hype up the mood”
Frederick spread his arht, I’ll stop joking around Serena, what kind of a person is that Sir Overlord?”
Frederick glanced to the side and saw his father slowly approaching them on his warhorse It was apparent that the oldoverlord But, codom wasn’t interested in this rumored ‘Mercenary Overlord’? Not only did he perform well in the Midsuon Soul Cerehts Moreover, he relied on his forces to defend against the Undead Army His achievedo with the Undead Army because the other reputable nobles and arainst the raids
Even the Eastern Plains that waswith Undead Creatures had also sunk into a stale much better than others The pitiful old overlord of Silent Field had crumbled entirely Lydia was extremely dissatisfied that the old overlord evacuated his own fah his sin wasn’t worthy of death, it was an equally harsh punishment to strip his noble title off
Only Rhode’s Land of Atoneainst the Undead Creatures Not only that, but he also repelled their attacks twice, which surprisedoverlord who obtained the territory for less than a year to perform so well Besides, no matter the Land of Atonement or Grenbell, they were located in reh Rhode had mercenaries in his command, the nobles were clear that the mercenaries weren’t reliable If not, they wouldn’t need to have their own private soldiers
But the young overlord successfully relied on that sainst the Undead Army?
Is he really that powerful?</eazed at the chariots and knights ere donned in exquisite, yet different style of armor They were representatives of noble families and local armies and were headed for Land of Atone supplies However, Serena kneas going on in their heads They wished to witness how Rhode went into battle and defeated the Undead Creatures After all, this was the most iet into trouble
Serena turned to her fiancé No matter what, I must watch this fellow closely</e eneration of young nobleh he is always expressionless, he is surprisingly not a eable and ss that Rhode had told them when he led them on a ‘one day trip’ in Casabianca She had to admit that the ‘trip’ had moved her
“But he isn’t easy to deal with, and nor is he soft-hearted So I advise you to act meticulously Don’t stir trouble or lance to the back “We’re following Royal Highness Lydia’s orders to come here and provide reinforce with those people behind”
Serena paused and turned to Frederick
“Keep all your bad habits”
“I know I know Serena, you’re alorrying too much Relax I know my limit”
Frederick yawned and as he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a majestic shadow
“Our final batch of reinforcements are here”
Rhode stood on the balcony and observed the denselyblack spots on the mountainous path
This was the final batch of reinforcements that Lydia had promised Rhode and they were the local nobles and armies But there were only 1500 of them Most of thehts and swordsmen Of course, the reason was si boats, but went on foot: because they were also serving the task of escorting supplies
Apart froistics workers like craftsmen were also included It could be seen that Lydia understood the situation of Rhode’s fortress well, which didn’t surprise Rhode at all She was a smart ruler and this was to be expected
“Marfa” Rhode turned around “Watch those guys and make sure they don’t stir any troubles”
“Yes, Sir I’ll get going now”
