Chapter 13:

On the Black Crow Sand Dune.

Unlike the previous days, Theodore Sotos immediately launched a fierce attack after discovering that the enemy had really begun to retreat.

Moreover, he achieved remarkable results.

As the sun set in the west, the battlefield was covered in blood. Broken flags fell diagonally to the ground, as if an era had ended.

Theodore rode on his horse and patrolled the battlefield as he spoke with satisfaction.

"There's also Aaron. His information is very useful. Hmm ... He also contributed to the defense of Widow's Bay," Theodore muttered to himself.

Theodore muttered to himself as he saw his Firstborn's slightly gloomy expression.

However, he did not say anything.

At this moment, a ranger brought a messenger from the Davis family.

"Honorable Lord Theodore, I bring the goodwill of my master. I hope we can shake hands and make peace. We admit defeat and are willing to give a part of our territory."

The messenger was a fat man with a flattering face. He knelt on the ground.

"Make peace?"

Theodore hesitated for a moment.

Although he wanted to destroy the Davis family, it could not be done overnight. If the enemy resisted stubbornly, even hundreds of people could resist for a long time with the castle.

At this moment, a raven flew down and was caught by Knight Turner, who took the letter on it.

He looked at it, and his expression changed. He found Theodore and handed the letter over. "My Lord, this is an urgent letter from Young Master Aaron."

"What?"

Theodore took the letter, and his eyes widened. He looked at the kneeling fat man and whipped him. "Are you lying to me?"

"My Lord, I don't dare, my Lord!"The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

The fat man rolled on the ground, his gorgeous robe stained with filth as he begged for mercy.

"My son has already broken into your castle, destroyed the drawbridge and gate, and burned your food reserves!"

Theodore laughed and said, "That guy Andrew sent you here to make peace. Could it be that he's just trying to buy time to rebuild the castle?"

"What?"

In the past, it was almost impossible for the Lower Green Forest to be enfeoffed. However, after obtaining the Upper Green Forest, it was very possible to divide out a few lands and reward them to meritorious people.

Moreover, this was also his way of expressing to Theodore that he had no intention of becoming the successor.

In any case, no matter how good his performance was, he might not be able to gain Theodore's favor and make him change the original successor.

Who knows, maybe this is just a test?

Hearing Aaron's reply, Theodore's expression froze, but then his smile did not change. "Not bad. You'll be a very good vassal."

"It's natural for a lord to give land to a vassal, and a vassal to repay him with loyalty."

Aaron showed a trace of excitement.

The feudal nobles of this era were completely different from China.

Although the titles of Duke, Marquis, Count, Viscount, and Baron in China also had this name, in reality, they did not have real land or private armies. Of course, their lives were seized by the emperor.

In the West, even the King could not execute a Baron with a single decree.

From Aaron's point of view, the western kingdoms were like companies. The king was at most a weak chairman, the kind that could be dismissed by the board of directors at any time ...

If he were in the Upper Green Forest, once he became a knight, it would be difficult for Colin to do anything to him.

Theodore said a few more words and looked at Colin. "The Upper Green Forest has been under the rule of the Davis family for generations. Now that there's a sudden change in ruler, the people will inevitably be a little conflicted. What should we do?"

"Father, I'm willing to be your sword and sweep away all obstacles for you," Colin answered without hesitation.

Theodore was a little disappointed as he looked at Aaron.

"At this time, the Upper Green Forest should be pacified. It can recognize the territories of those knights who submit as legitimate. Apart from that ... Although the direct descendants of the Davis family are all dead, Sylvie is still here ..."

Aaron had a playful smile in his heart. "Why don't we continue the previous engagement and let Colin marry Sylvie of the Davis family and announce that their child will be the future successor of the Upper Green Forest?"

"Not a bad idea. It has the wisdom of ruling!"

A happy smile appeared on Theodore's face. "Did you hear that? Colin ... Immediately prepare to marry Sylvie. The celebration must be grand! "

Colin immediately felt as if he had been punched.

He did not want to marry the woman who had brought shame to him. Moreover ... he did not know what had happened to that woman in Aaron's hands!

However, this was a political marriage. Even if Sylvie was a sow, he had to marry her!

Moreover, this was to consolidate his position as the successor.

As long as he married Sylvie and had children, Aaron Sotos and Sean Sotos would definitely not be able to compare to him!
