Abbas XI sighed

”I know that you are still too young and you should not bear this burden However, this is now a difficult time for the Eshi+p of the Empire Now is the time where the Enified gaze soften and his voice also lowered, ”Even though I want you to go to the Northwest, I do not really expect you to change the situation i and do not have much experience What I need are your banners! When the soldiers are defeated, I want your family banner to come up and stabilize the morale of the ars! I just need you to go to the front lines! As long as your family banner is up, the morale of the soldiers will be secured Do you understand my intentions?”

”I understand!” Rody breathed a sigh of relief

He was not afraid of fighting on the front lines As a warrior, he had already plan to join the e, he was inevitably apprehensive to be suddenly entrusted with an important task However, the emperor was clear in his commands and did not expect hio out and show hiend of the undefeated Tulip Faood tactic to sustain the morale of the army

When Abbas XI saw Rody's nervousness, he smiled and said, ”I believe that the Tulip Family would not disappoint me That is why I hope that you can live up to my expectations”

Rody took a deep breath, slowly knelt down and said, ”Yes”

Since all was said and done, the e that Rody could now leave Rody slowly stood up and showed his respect before leaving

When he reached the entrance, the eain

”Seth, I heard that you got close with Jojo recently I hope that you will not be distracted by anything else at this time”

Rody turned stiff as he secretly scoffed He slowly turned and said ”I understand”

Hht with the emperor for a woman I do not have such interests!

When he left the audience hall, Rody first looked for Gordon to take the light saber back After that, he got on the carriage without a word

When Rody got home, Nicole was surprised that he returned so early By the ti with the Emperor, Nicole's face was full of solemn expression

”His Majesty did not blame you?”

Rody sighed ”I also felt strange His Majesty lightly spoke about it before changing the subject”

Nicole's facial expression becaently asked, ”Are you confident about the examination in three days' time?”

Rody nodded ”There should be no problem”

”But… But now the situation at the Northwest is tense His Majesty wants to send you to the front lines” Nicole looked sad

Rody felt his heart warm up and he could not help but move forward to hold Nicole's hands ”Nicole, are you worried about me?”

Nicole's face turned red and she quickly withdrew her hands She stepped back and looked to the side Fortunately, there were no other servants at that moment Those around them had already been sent away as well

When Rody saw Nicole pull back, he smiled sadly and said, ”Nicole, I am sorry”

Nicole knew Rody was unhappy Knowing that he was about to leave for the front lines in a few days, her heart turned tender She spoke gently; her eyes red, ”Rody, I beg of you Please do not force ht now, our identities are different”

Rody showed an expression of self-deprecation and sighed He gave Nicole a glance before leaving

”Wait!” Nicole hurriedly said as she felt anxious She rushed in front and held Rody's clothes Then she said, ”Rody! Do notasis over, I will arrange for you to be in the ar as you work hard… in future… in future, I ait for you” The last feords were very soft but luckily, Rody had good hearing as a warrior Otherwise, those words would not be heard

Rody felt surprised and stared at Nicole His face was filled with joy ”Really? Nicole… are you speaking the truth? Really?”

Nicole's face turned red and she said, ”You… what do you want me to do? You were rude… twice already… Who do you think you are?” She spoke until she looked like she was about to cry

Rody felt so happy that he grabbed Nicole's hands This tio no matter as said ”So, you… you do not mind my real identity? I am just a civilian”

Nicole was displeased ”Who do you think we, the Tulip Family are? Do you think that I, Nicole, am that kind of…that kind of person?”

At that moment, hundreds of flowers bloomed in Rody's heart His past depression froer cared about the emperor's commands or titles or exa on the front lines Even if he had to risk his life fighting the foreign barbarians right now, he would not frown

”Nicole, do not worry! I ork hard! I will becorace the name of your Tulip Family!” Rody shouted in excitement

”Shut up!” Nicole's face was still red but she quickly stomped in front and covered Rody's mouth ”You need to shut up! Do you knohere you are? Do not shout!”

Rody immediately shut up but excitedly reached out his hands to hold Nicole Nicole's face turned red She quickly avoided his grasp and in a panic, opened the door before running out

Unexpectedly, Rody watched Nicole escape He felt that his bitterness for so many days was noorth it He was so excited that he felt like roaring

”You are a real idiot!” Suddenly, a sarcastic sounding voice could be heard

”Andy, shut up!” Rody was so happy that he did not want to bicker with Andy

”Hmph! I said, you are an idiot!” Andy's voice was cold ”The inally clever, has also beco in love! The preposterous eo and court death It is such an obvious plot to get you killed by others yet you two fools are still so well behaved I think that at this moment, the emperor is the one who is really happy Looks like soon, there will be a fireworks display at the palace!! Idiot!!”
