Time is set back to now.

 

At this time, the air in Ice Rock City was filled with anxiety and excitement.

 

The ignorant civilians still don't know exactly what happened, but all the nobles know that it is now the time when the arrow is on the line.

 

The categorical refusal of the Duke of St. Hilde left the lords with nowhere to go.

 

Orders passed on, and the army was making the final preparations before the war.

 

The solemn atmosphere enveloped the whole city, tonight, it is destined to be difficult to sleep.

 

Kahn Sudor is one of the people who can't sleep. He just feels that his heart is pounding, and he is a little frightened.

 

After tossing and turning for a long time, Kahn didn't sleep at all.

 

After getting dressed, Kahn subconsciously walked to his uncle's room.

 

"Good evening, Ms. Penny!" Kahn greeted the housekeeper of the Uman family halfway.

 

"Good evening, Knight Kahn, are you also looking for Lord Earl?"

 

"No, no. I'm just going around." Kahn quickly denied it.

 

He knew that this Ms. Penny seemed to be the housekeeper of the Uman family, but in fact, she was actually the lover of Earl Uman.

 

And it's not an ordinary lover.

 

It is said that the reason why Earl Uman fell in love with Penny was because of her beauty and her burgundy pupils.

 

The colors of human pupils in this world are generally blue, black, and green, and wine-red pupils are rarely seen.

 

And Earl Uman himself also has this pupil color.

 

In the eyes of Earl Uman, who doesn't understand genetics, even though this Penny was born from a humble background, she could have pupils of the same color as him. Maybe she was a descendant of ancient blood.

 

Regardless of whether this rumor is true or false, Penny's position in the Uman family is very high, which is a certain fact.

 

Even the illegitimate son Varla she gave birth to the earl is more valued than the average illegitimate son.

 

Earl Uman not only allowed him to be baptized and become a knight but also spent a lot of effort to help him marry a baron's daughter - that is, Colin's sister Caitlin.

 

Therefore, Kahn will show such respect for a housekeeper.

 

Moreover, he realized that at this time Ms. Penny went to the earl’s room, 80% of which was going to...

 

Therefore, Kahn wisely chose not to disturb Lord Earl.

 

Saying goodbye to Kahn, Penny came to Earl Uman's room and opened the door directly.

 

When Earl Uman saw Penny who came in without knocking on the door, he didn't even scold her.

 

"It's all arranged?"

 

"Yes," Penny replied casually.

 

Then stepped forward to help Earl Uman unbutton the shirt.

 

Earl Uman kissed the woman in front of him on the forehead and then began to undress her.

 

The earl's wife has been dead for many years, and he has never remarried.

 

Instead, he acted more like a couple with his lover Penny.

 

If outsiders see this scene, they will probably be very puzzled.

 

How could an Earl treat a lover from a humble background like this?

 

Even if Penny used to be extremely beautiful, but now she is over forty, can she still have such a big attraction to the Earl?

 

Or is it true that those wine-red pupils are so noble in the eyes of the Earl?

 

If this is the case, then all the civilian girls with wine-red pupils in the northern territory will probably gather in Fallen Eagle City.

 

However, Earl Uman didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with treating a civilian lover in this way.

 

And Penny also took it for granted.

 

"What are you worried about?" Earl Uman asked suddenly, seeing the worry on Penny's face.

 

"Nothing." Penny avoided the earl's eyes.

 

Earl Uman stretched out his hand to pinch Penny's chin and turned her gaze to himself: "You have to believe me, this is the best we can have now, and the only viable choice!"

 

"But you are helping the St. Hilde family to consolidate the rule." Penny's eyes were full of reluctance.

 

"There is no way when Marquis Garcia chose to go north to chase the trolls instead of going south to Winter City, our plan had already failed.

 

I don’t know what agreement they reached.

 

Let Marquis Garcia withstand the temptation to become the lord of the north, willing to be the sword in the hands of his brother.

 

Moreover, this idiot Gambik is to blame!

 

It is a shame that the 300,000 army was wiped out by 50,000 people!

 

In this situation, I have no choice but to follow the secret order of the Duke of St. Hilde and cooperate with him to clean up the disobedient lords. "

 

Penny stopped talking but silently helped Earl Uman unbutton his clothes.

 

When Earl Uman saw this, he felt unhappy and asked again: "Did someone look for you?"

 

Penny's hand paused, then nodded gently.

 

Earl Uman's eyes flashed blue, and he said solemnly: "Don't believe those trolls! Remember, we are just using them, and they are using us, you must not treat them as your own people!"

 

"It's not a troll." Penny shook her head and stared into the eyes of Earl Uman. "It's my brother who wrote the letter."

 

Earl Uman's eyes narrowed: "What did he say?"

 

"He said..." Penny's eyes flickered, with a hint of scrutiny. "He said, you bet on both ends..."

 

"Nonsense!" Earl Uman snorted coldly, put his hands on Penny's shoulders, and pulled her closer to him, "Don't you believe me?"

 

Penny looked at him for a long time before spitting out two words gently: "I believe you."

 

Earl Uman was relieved and hugged Penny tightly in his arms: "Don't worry, what I promised you will be done!"

 

"Yeah. Go to sleep."

 

...

 

Early the next morning.

 

The murderous atmosphere in Ice Rock City has become extremely strong.

 

Groups of soldiers passed through the street in groups and gathered outside the city gate.

 

At this time, even the dull civilians realized that something was going to happen, and immediately ran home, closed the windows and doors, and dared not go out again.

 

At the same time, an army also appeared five kilometers south of Ice Rock City.

 

The golden lion flag was shining brightly in the sunshine.

 

That is the direct army of the Saint Hilde family - the Golden Lion Legion!

 

And to the west of Ice Rock City, there is a black ocean.

 

There is also an army there - the Black Cavalry!

 

The strong murderous aura permeated the fields, causing the temperature in the air to drop a lot.

 

Earl Dawson stood in front of the Black Cavalry, looking at the golden lion army and the lord's coalition opposing in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

 

At nine o'clock in the morning, after the final round of negotiations was declared unsuccessful, the harsh sound of the horn began to sound.

 

The forward forces of the Golden Lion Legion and the lord's coalition began to gradually approach each other.

 

Immediately, the shouting and killing sounded through the wilderness.

 

Earl Dawson looked at the two sides fighting in the distance, his expression calm.

 

He is waiting.

 

When the main forces of the two sides are completely entangled, they can no longer be separated easily.

 

Finally, as it was approaching noon, the battle between the Golden Lion Army and the lord's coalition had reached its fiercest time.

 

On the whole, the lord coalition has the upper hand.

 

After all, they are superior in number.

 

At this moment, Earl Dawson, who had been watching coldly, finally gave the order to attack.

 

The galloping horses shook the earth.

 

The thunderous sound of horseshoes hit everyone's hearts hard, making them involuntarily turn their eyes to this cavalry who suddenly entered the battlefield!

 

In the past, the objects of the Black Cavalry's charge had always been trolls, but this time, humans finally got in their way.

 

The soldiers of the lord's coalition army saw this scene and suddenly yelled in excitement.

 

Because what the Black Cavalry rushed towards was the position of the Golden Lion Legion!

 

However, there is still no waiting for them to be happy.

 

I saw the Black Cavalry's path of travel made a sudden turn, and then, like a torrent bursting a bank, rushed to the right flank of the lord's coalition army!

 

"Boom!"

 

The situation reversed instantly!
