Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Rescuing my comrades who were captured and raided Circus' stronghold alone was a matter of life. In the meantime, he was injured all over, and some of them could have died instantly if he had done something wrong.

Lycaen thought he didn't have to worry about him anymore in the appearance of such a feron.

‘Thank you for such an important time. ’

Currently, the land was almost empty. There are still knights left, but there is no Captain Anton left to lead them.

In that situation, if the Circus are planning something, they could be put to shame. At that time, it was fortunate that the Feron had returned to the way it had grown.

Licayen thought to himself, "Keep your voice down a bit."

“Go to where the children are and finish the treatment first. Get back to your territory as soon as you're better. ”

“Yes.”

“When I return, Senna will be acting on behalf of the lord. When you return, you will take command of the Knight Leader. ”

“I understand!”

Lycaen smiles as Feron responds without hesitation. It is because it shows clearly that he has grown.

“Then I'll be going... ”

“Oh, wait. ”

Lycaen gestures lightly toward the Feron about to rise from his seat and sits back down. Then he took a letter out of his arms and turned to Peron.

“Send Jack and his aides to the place written in this letter. Elisha and Wolf will be waiting for you. Meet them and bring them to Caventes Porto, Earl Gronst. ”

It was yesterday that the letter flew from Elisha. I met someone and it was hard for Elisha to decide whether to recruit him as an ally. She wanted me to meet him in person.

Lycaen reads the letter and tries to send it right away. At this time, I was going to say that it would be better for a vague person to just take it out. Then I thought, if Elisha could say this, she wouldn't be an ordinary person. Then it shouldn't be bad to meet him first.

But it was hard to wait here. We must leave early tomorrow morning with Earl Dovern and Ernest. In addition, as long as I know that Circus is watching this way, I can't be bothered to meet one person.

However, it was vague to ask Elisha and Wolf to bring only two. This is because a person that size needs to be as discreet as possible while also requiring thorough escort.

That's why it was Jack. Unlike Tom, he thought he could handle this because he showed an unexpected delicacy.

“I understand!”

Feron writes in his arms, grudging.

“What's the matter? ”

In the big wagon, Earl Dovern asks for Lycaen, sitting across from him. It's because Lycaen has always looked at herself with strange eyes.

“Can you move so quickly? ”

Requested by Caith to escort Lord Dovern and Annes, Lycaen has hired some trusted mercenaries to escort him. You can move around on your own, but Lord Dornish or Anness doesn't have the strength to defend herself when something happens. It's because Lycaen also acted as a escort, but if you hold many hands with one hand, there may be gaps.

But Lord Dovern refuses. Let's just make a quick move.

Lord Dovern smiles faintly.

“He may have been, but he's an old man who no one cares about now. It's just a hassle with so many escorts. ”

Lycaen nods, smiling strangely. It was because there were many meanings in the words of Lord Dovern.

A few months ago, the Royal Guard was surrounded by an escort as soon as Lord Dobbon moved. The king sent royal guards for Lord Dovern.

However, when the duchess made his move, he did not say anything about escort. It was an indication of a desire between Lord Dovern and the king.

In fact, in the past, the Duke of Dobbon was surprisingly a target for many people. As the king's advisors always said the right thing, there was naturally a lot of static, and he needed a escort.

However, after Lord Dovern's wishes were fulfilled, he spoke the truth to the king and stopped resisting the stigma. Of course, the risk has been reduced so you don't have to hurt them.

The story of the Dobbon heir speaks lightly.

Lycaen cautiously asked.

“It may end up as far away from your attention as it is now, but a few years later, there could be great danger. ”

The reason the Duke of Dovern and the king were mistaken was because of the marriage of Anneth. Prince Breton, of course, also wanted Anes to be a member of the royal family. However, Lord Dovern ignored the king's words and married Anness to Caith.

It was a matter of sentiment, and that was the reason why it was taken away from power. Though, of course, Lord Dovern was not a great man to use the king's light to fill his lust and wield power.

“You've lived long enough anyway. I'm too old to be afraid of that now. Anes, my granddaughter son-in-law will take care of you. There's nothing to worry about. I'm relieved that my granddaughter son-in-law has a scary friend like you. ”

“He's flattered. But.... ”

Lycaen whispers in a gentle voice.

“Do you have anything in particular to say? ”

“I admire the character of the Dovern ball. ”

Despite Anes riding in the wagon with him, Lycaen brought out the words the parties would feel awkward about.

“Haha, I didn't see him like that, but he talks so sweetly. ”

“I mean it, not sweetly. ”

“You have no reason to come and see me now. Rather than that, I don't think Sir Frocus is very good at that kind of nonsense. ”

The late Duke of Doran smiled as he spoke with a solemn expression.

Lycaen nods faintly and continues.

“The first day I met the Dovern ball, I felt really scared. ”

Anes, who was deliberately throwing his gaze out of the window because he couldn't stand the conversation between the two of them, couldn't help but see Hilen Lichen. Suddenly, I was very curious as to why he brought this up.

“Haha, I've never yelled at anyone in my life. But were you scared?”

“Yes, it's usually scarier for people who smile all the time. ”

“Hmm, let's say. So why are you suddenly saying that? ”

“Because I have a favor to ask the Dovern in the near future. ”

“Please... I'm so scared that someone like you would ask me to do this. ”

“That may be so. ”

The look in the Lord Dovern's deep eyes shifts sharply, sweeping the entire body of Lycaen. However, I did not know what I was hiding, so I did not have any idea what I was talking about that was so sudden and tense.

“Don't you have something to tell me? ”

“I wish I could, but I can't get it out, not yet. ”

Lycaen has been thinking about Lord Dovern ever since he was preparing for the battle against Circus.

He is secretly gathering forces by sending Elisha now. From time to time, I saw Elisha's report in a letter, and the results were quite good.

However, there was one problem with gathering forces. There is no one to stand in the center of those forces, and precisely no one to serve as a spiritual center. Even though Lycaen was gathering forces, he knew he could be a force source, but he was not enough to be a mental source.

It was very important to be able to rely mentally on these broad and ambiguous battles, not on interstate warfare. That's why it was the late Lord Doyle who had in mind.

Most of the nobles on the continent have to pay some attention to the politics of other kingdoms. Thus, the late Duke Dovern, who had once been King Bren's advisor for a long time, was known for being bold, unselfish, and always speaking the truth.

There may be static in Bren Kingdom, but there are many respected people on the whole continent. He was a soulless figure, a point of mind that Lycaen hoped for.

I was originally going to meet and talk after preparing a little more, but things were rushing back to the jokes of the person who sent the letter. That's why we got a chance to make a fortune.

“Hmm, I don't know what's going on and I can't give you an answer. But if I hear from you later, I'll hear enough and make a decision. This is the only answer I can give you right now. ”

Lycaen nods as if it were natural.

“That's enough. Rather, I have to thank you. ”

* * *

“Welcome!”

Caith greets the duchess with a nervous face that doesn't suit such a big figure.

“Haha, I've never seen you so nervous. ”

Lord Dovern taps Caith on the shoulder with a relaxing smile. Then he said with a slightly mean look.

“Someone who wants to see more than this old man. What are you doing here? ”
