Chapter 66.1: Winter of the Knights (3)

It was embarrassing, but what was said couldnt be taken back. Countess Abner was not generous enough to tolerate an interruption at this moment.

Under Countess Abner, there were knights eager for opportunities, and Gerdolf was just one of them.

Inno fidgeted nervously with his fingers, but Countess Abner scoffed inwardly.

.

Everyone thought similarly upon seeing Inno and Gerdolf. They thought of a foolish son being looked after by his father. However, Countess Abners thoughts were slightly different.

Inno was timid, greedy, and narrow-minded. He was not a knight fit for great responsibilities. Gerdolf seemed better by comparison.

On the surface, he might seem foolish, but his persistence and straightforwardness were virtues not easily found.

Seeing Gerdolf, it seemed likely he would follow a knight named Johan. Countess Abner decided to allow this generously. After all, she owed Johan.

With this victory, envoys are already arriving. Theyre probably trying to align with us once the Emperor dies.

At Countess Abners words, everyones face lit up with smiles.

A loser of the west and a great feudal lord.

This was the position the Abner family was aiming for.

Lets dedicate this victory to the gods. May the glory of the gods be eternal in our family.

May the glory of God be eternal to the family!

Countess Abner called out a few knights who had distinguished themselves and awarded them with prizes, and then dismissed the people. Now only Ulrike was left.

You worked hard.

It was just something that had to be done.

No need to be too humble. It was a great victory, even if the situation was favorable.

The countess had expected to capture the castle after a tedious siege, but the marquiss intervention and defeat were all unexpected.

It would be better to rest until the daughter of the Jarpen family arrives. If the person to be married keeps running around, the Jarpen family will be uncomfortable.

What?

Oh, no. Sorry. I was just talking to myself.

Honestly, it was a situation Ulrike had to acknowledge as well.

Unless Johan was going to spend his life as a rural feudal lord, it was definitely better to receive the appointment from Duke Brduhe if he intended to keep fighting and moving forward.

It wasnt a visible asset. However, it would prove to be immensely powerful in the fights and life ahead.

If he refused here, Johan would give up the fiefdom and leave.

In the end, there was only one decision to make.

Whether Ulrike would just let him go or do something believing in the distant future.

. . .Okay. Ill arrange all the rights of Heincut and the neighboring town and give them to the duke.

?!?!

Johan was greatly surprised.

?

I might not be a feudal lord, but its practically the same. Heincut currently has no administrator, but if we send one from the neighboring town, it wont be much different. Is that okay?

. . . . . .

As Johan looked bewildered, Ulrike felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Why?

Thank you.

Consider this town a payment for your loyalty. You are an honorable knight, arent you?

. . . . . .

Johan might not have been particularly honorable, but he wasnt tactless enough to say that now.

Johan nodded his head.
