Rhode couldn't help but sigh. How could this woman be so timid?

“Moreover, if I continue to stay here, I'll be seen…”

Before he could finish speaking, a soft body suddenly leaned close.

Tessa, standing on tiptoe, interrupted all of Rhode's excuses with a deep French kiss.

“Now, can you stay and keep me company?”

Looking at that nervous and sensitive face, Rhode felt somewhat helpless. After all this, how could he refuse?

“Alright.”

Seeing Rhode agree, a smile appeared on Tessa's delicate face, and her mood immediately relaxed.

“I'm going to change clothes. You bad thing, don't you dare peek.”

Tessa tapped Rhode's brow with her finger, her tone carrying an ambiguity she herself didn't notice.

It was just like playful banter between lovers.

“Don't rush.”

Tessa was stunned, and after realizing what he meant, her eyes darted around evasively.

In the end, she couldn't resist the gentle persuasion.

“Just consider it paying him the interest in advance.”

After all, the evil spirit in the villa still needed this guy's help to solve.

Tessa convinced herself.

Watching Tessa and Irene fall into a deep sleep, Rhode directly sacrificed the dirty stockings in the trash can.

There was no need to clean such disposable items once they were dirty.

After setting up a barrier, Rhode stepped into the time-space gate.

The scene before him blurred, and bright sunlight shone on his face through the window. Rhode stretched lazily and picked up the crucifix on his chest.

Bright black armor covered his entire body, and Rhode pushed open the door and walked out of the room.

“Lord Rhode!”

Jack, who was standing at the door, saw Rhode come out and quickly greeted him.

“Have you been standing here all night?”

Rhode frowned as he looked at Jack's exhausted face.

“I was afraid someone would attack you.”

Rhode was speechless looking at Jack's simple and honest face.

Attack him?

If there really was such a thing, this kid wouldn't be able to stop it.

Although the behavior was a bit stupid, it was worthy of praise.

“A loyal follower should be rewarded.”

Rhode casually threw out a few gold coins.

“Don't waste time. We must reach the castle before noon today.”

Having wasted so much time, he had to speed up.

Hearing this, Jack quickly went to the stable to fetch the horses.

In addition to Rhode's Nightmare Warhorse, there were also two warhorses he bought at the market.

They could be used as mounts or to carry supplies.

“There are still a few people missing.”

Rhode frowned as he looked at the lone follower.

When other knights went out, they had at least a few or even dozens of servants to take care of their daily lives.

He only had one follower, which seemed a bit shabby.

If he went to the castle like this, he would probably be looked down upon.

Thinking of this, Rhode directly took Jack to the market and bought several strong slaves with a wave of his hand.

Including Jack, there were nine followers.

Although not many, it was considered a normal knight's standard equipment.

Now that he had followers, he couldn't lack warhorses. After all, he couldn't let these people run after his horse.

With a lot of gold coins spent, the mounts and clothes were all brand new.

Anyone who saw them would think that this must be an elite knight from a wealthy background.

After assigning each person a position, he handed them all over to Jack to manage.

The group set off in a mighty manner and arrived at the Earl's Castle at noon.

Rhode found a secluded place and released Little Red Riding Hood.

“Big brother, where is this?”

Little Red Riding Hood looked at Rhode with a blank expression, her eyes filled with doubt as she looked at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Thinking that Rhode needed something again, she came up to him and was about to unfasten Rhode's armor.

“Don't be闹, I have something important to do today.”

Rhode didn't expect that his education during this period of time had made Little Red Riding Hood so obedient.

However, he wasn't in the mood for this right now. He interrupted Little Red Riding Hood's spellcasting and changed her into an exquisite dress.

“Now, you are Baron Osweid's daughter, Brittany!”

“I'm going to take you to the castle's palace, find your only relative, let her prove your identity, and take back the title and territory that are rightfully yours.”

Little Red Riding Hood nodded as if she understood, and Rhode didn't say much when he saw this.

When the time comes, he will naturally solve these things.

Little Red Riding Hood's only use is as a mascot.

After preparing everything, Rhode took his men directly to the outside of the palace and requested an audience with the Queen under Brittany's name.

He previously thought that Baron Osweid's sister married Earl Auston and only became a princess.

But after careful understanding, he realized that in this world, from nobles to serfs, they all followed a monogamous system.

One reason was because of the existence of the church, which did not support polygamy.

Another reason was that the monogamous system had already appeared before the empire split.

Therefore, whether it was the Southern Continent or the Northern Continent, even the king could only have one wife.

This was already a rule.

If you wanted a second wife, the only way was to divorce the first wife, and then you could marry the second wife.

Of course, there was only one wife.

How many mistresses and lovers there were below was unknown.

Mistresses and their sons did not have the right to inherit titles and territories, and their status was low.

Even the church would not care about how many mistresses you had.

It was rumored that Earl Auston had married three wives in total. He previously thought that Baron Osweid's sister was only one of the princesses.

Just like the Emperor's harem.

In fact, Earl Auston's previous two wives had died due to illness.

Baron Osweid's sister was his third wife, and now the rightful Queen of the Auston Kingdom.

Seeing Rhode dressed as a knight, followed by a group of well-equipped followers, obviously from a noble background.

The guards guarding the palace did not dare to neglect him and went in to report.

Before long, a maid dressed in court dress came out and led them into the palace.

The group of followers were arranged to rest elsewhere, while Rhode and Little Red Riding Hood were received by the Queen.

Walking into the splendid and luxurious palace.

A beautiful noblewoman wearing a gorgeous court dress, covered with jewelry and gems, was looking excitedly at Little Red Riding Hood who was walking in.

“Brittany!”

“I didn't expect you to really still be alive!”

The beautiful noblewoman walked over gracefully and hugged the blank-faced Brittany warmly.

“Don't you recognize your aunt?”

Queen Karina looked at the blank-faced Little Red Riding Hood, and the expression on her face was slightly strange.

A trace of doubt couldn't help but flash in her eyes.

If it was really Brittany, it was impossible that she wouldn't even recognize her.

Carefully examining that signature handsome appearance and the characteristics of her niece in her memory.

Queen Karina confirmed that this was her brother's daughter.

“Your Majesty, Miss Brittany was once imprisoned by a vicious witch and her memory was forgotten by magic potions. It will take some time to recall her past memories.”

Rhode, who was standing next to her, spoke in a timely manner.

“You are?”

As if she had just noticed that there was someone else next to her, Queen Karina's gaze turned to Rhode.

Looking at that handsome face and strong and tall physique, a trace of strangeness flashed in Queen Karina's eyes.

070 Although she had been secretly peeking out of the corner of her eye, she did not expect that this knight's charm was even more outstanding than she imagined.

“I am just a passing knight who rescued Miss Brittany from the hands of werewolves and witches.”

Rhode said the lines he had prepared long ago.

Moreover, he was not wrong.

That was the truth.

Hearing that Rhode had rescued Brittany from the hands of werewolves and witches, Queen Karina's eyes lit up.

This kind of brave and fearless, handsome and strong knight is definitely a popular commodity in the upper-class noble class.

Just by relying on this deed, it was enough to make him a hot new star in the upper-class noble circle.

She was naturally no exception.

No one can not be moved by such a handsome and brave knight.

Just like men need to conquer wild horses to prove their strength.

Women also need to be conquered by strong men like wild horses to satisfy the emptiness in their hearts.

Conquering men, so as to conquer this world.

Looking at her niece next to her, Queen Karina suppressed the strangeness on her face.

“Brave knight, your courage deserves praise!”

“As a reward for your heroic rescue of Brittany, I can have my husband grant you a piece of territory and become a member of this kingdom.”

Queen Karina said seriously.

“Thank you for your generosity!”
