Heaven’s Intention

Time continues to move backwards. The climate is gradually getting colder, and there will even be snow at night. Although the snowflakes are very beautiful, the drop in temperature still brings countless troubles to people.

On the night of December 18, a cold wave hit the nearby area, and the temperature suddenly dropped to around minus ten degrees.

It's snowing again. Sir Dymercar stood at the window on the second floor and looked out. A certain string in my heart moved slightly, talking to myself.

At this moment, snowflakes kept falling from the sky, and the windows were half-opened, allowing gusts of cold air to rush straight into the room.

The temperature of the entire room is constantly dropping as time goes by.

But Sir Demerkar had a somewhat sad expression on his face, standing there, facing the cold wind, not afraid of the cold air coming. He was thinking about something, and standing here could clear up his messy mind.

I don't know, how is the territory now? Have those demons ruined it? Thinking that his territory might still be deserted, he couldn't help muttering to himself. He is very worried about the situation in his territory.

Sir Demercar's territory had been breached by demons in the evil disaster a long time ago. Since then, he had to bring his daughter, wife and surviving people to Romont's special Take Tarshaw and live in this small mining village surrounded by high walls.

Not only him, but the other surviving Jazz also came here.

With the help of Romon, they built a house and settled down. At least before the arrival of this winter, they have a stable home again, and they will not be afraid of demon attacks all day long, let alone winter. time, fled around.

However, this home is so strange.

No matter how good it is, no matter how stable it is, this place is not their long-term place after all.

They have indeed moved under Romon's subordinates, and now Romon is a baron, and he is indeed worthy of the status of a high-ranking lord.

However, the territories that once belonged to them still belong to them now, because these lords fought hard to resist, so they will not be punished for defeat, and their families have not perished in the disaster, and the ownership of the territories will still remain unchanged. Change.

It is said that the development of the evil disaster has become increasingly stable. Some squires began to move their minds and wanted to go back to their own territory to take a look.

after all,

It's really distressing to see my own territory so barren.

Just a few days ago, several squires who stayed in Tertashaw Territory with Sir Demercar have left one after another. After hearing that they returned to their own territory, they began to repair the territory.

Should I tell Romon now? If so, will he have any objections? Sir Demercar was in a state of agitation right now, and he wanted to go back.

In this world, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is not as harsh as on Earth, so it is normal to go back.

But there is a key issue here, that is, the people and the army.

After all, he was the one who said he wanted to settle here, and the people who led him had also been entrusted.

Moreover, the army and salary are supplied by Romon with a large amount of armor, weapons, food and grass. When it comes to leaving at this time, it is impossible to simply take people away like this.

Moreover, if Romon was still Lord, things would be much easier, but one moment and another moment. Now Romon is already a baron, and is no longer a lord on an equal footing with him. Such a change in status will naturally make Sir Demercar think a lot more when he thinks about problems.

Honey, you'll catch a cold. The door of Sir Demercar's room was suddenly pushed open, and the beautiful and dignified lady came in from the outside. As soon as she entered, she found that her husband was in a daze, and the room The temperature in the room was very low, not only sighed distressedly, stepped forward, and closed the window.

Looking out from the transparent glass window, the outside scene is still clearly visible.

I'm sorry for worrying you. Sir Demerkar said guiltily as he turned around and hugged his wife. During this period of time, his once pampered wife had suffered a lot with him, which made Sir Demerkar feel a little sorry.

Honey, are you upset again? Knowing that her husband was hesitating, the lady gently tidied his clothes, and then, looking into his eyes, asked gently.

At this time, there is nothing more reassuring than this expression. Under her gentle gaze, Sir Demerkar sighed softly.

Yes, I heard that they have all gone back, and I want to go back and have a look. Afterwards, Sir Demerkar said, But. The issue of the people and the army is very troublesome.

But... isn't it a good place to live here now? Madam Madam felt sorry for her husband: Wouldn't it be better to go back after this winter?

Honey, you may not understand the current situation. The current territorial structure has changed a lot due to the occurrence of the evil disaster. I am worried that if we delay returning, the territory may be taken back by the kingdom and given to you. Someone else, Ser Dymercar said after a moment of silence.

Really? Madam Jazz was taken aback. She never knew much about this matter, and she also became worried after hearing what her husband said: Then...then let's go now!

Hehe, don't worry, dear, as long as you go back in a few days, there should be no problem, but the issue of the people and the army... I'm worried that Romon will be very unhappy! Sir Demercar expressed his worries: However, if we don't have a certain number of people and troops, it's useless for us to go back.

You're talking about this, indeed, it's a big problem. Upon hearing this, Madam Jazz suddenly lost her mind, and she said worriedly, Why don't you go talk to him and explain the matter clearly, We can only need a part of the manpower, as long as we can basically reclaim the wasteland!

I saw my wife say so. Sir Demercar could only nod: I hope so.

At this time, it was time for lunch, and the couple went down to eat. In order for them to live a better life, although it is already winter, Romon will still distribute some vegetables grown in his greenhouse to the nobles living here, and Sir Demerka's family can eat them every day. Serving fresh vegetables is indeed a very good life in winter.

After dinner, Sir Demerkar felt that he was still in a bad mood, so he went out. Wander the streets.

The small mining village at this time is very different from when it was first built.

Because of Romon's full-scale construction, coupled with the gradual increase in population, this place, which is nominally a village, is actually comparable to an ordinary small town.

Even the newly built town of Romon is not much larger than this small mining village in terms of population size.

The street is very spacious, and there are small trees planted on both sides when the village was rebuilt. Because it has been a long time, the trees have grown a lot. In summer, patches of green shade allow people to walk around them , will not feel the scorching heat of the summer sun, even though it is winter, you can still see the scale.

The shops on both sides are full of goods. This is what surprised Sir Demerka even now. After all, after the outbreak of the evil disaster, many shops are already facing a shortage of goods, but the shops here are not. It seems that these problems have not been encountered at all, and there are still a lot of goods. Could it be that this place is really completely free from outside influence?

While walking, Daimoka looked at the situation in the village, and when he reached the villa of Romon, he subconsciously stopped.

I heard that Romon returned to the small mining village today. I don't know if Romon is here now... He thought secretly, then looked up at the villa, hesitating whether to go in.

At this moment, a person happened to come out of Romon's villa.

Mr. Demerka? The man who came out was wearing a robe, and his body was a little thin, but his mental state was very good. With just one glance this way, the man recognized him. He hurried over and asked with a smile: Are you here to see the baron? The baron just left, why don't you come in and wait?

This person was Nick, and he followed Romon over to count. If he was in front of outsiders, he was always called by the baron, but when a few people were alone, he was not so humble.

Sir Demercar knew that the internal affairs official had an unusual relationship with Romond, so he politely thanked him and followed him in.

After arranging Sir Demercar to sit down in the living room, Nick apologized and went out to do some errands.

It was quite different from the cold outside, but the temperature inside was very high. Sir Demerkar broke out in a thin sweat after only sitting for a while. As soon as he opened his robe a little, a cute little girl was holding a cup of tea. come over.

Sir, let's have a cup of tea first. The girl said with a smile.

Well, okay, thank you. Sir Demerkar took the tea and took a sip, the taste was sweet. Although the tea was hot, it calmed his current restless mood.

Just sat down and waited for a while, when the door slammed, a gust of whirlwind came in with snowflakes, followed by the sound of riding boots from outside.

My lord, you are back. The little girl from just now ran out in a hurry to help take the cloak and so on. Then, Romon walked in from the outside wearing a neat tights.

Sir Demerkar stood up quickly and greeted Romon with a more polite and respectful attitude than before.

This is a world with a very strict hierarchy, and a gap in one level often brings about a lot of changes.

When Romon and Sir Demercar were on an equal footing, they had a half-teacher, half-friend relationship, but now it is different. As a baron, Romon owns a large area of ​​land and has his own baronial castle. , this change, in the eyes of Sir Demerka, naturally has a different meaning.

This is no longer a question of being polite or impolite, but a rule that must be followed.

Romon naturally understood this, and he accepted Sir Demerkar's overture with a smile. After he sat down, Romon said, Sir Demercar, if you have anything to say, just say it! (!)
