Come to another world and become a lord

Chapter 38: Sudden Rebellion

At this time in the village chief's house, Dickens was furious. He walked towards Lisa who was sitting on the side and knocked her to the ground with a backhand palm:

"Bitch! If it weren't for you!"

Lisa fell to the ground, tears welling up in her eyes for a moment.

The old village chief Hake was smoking a pipe while he was complaining:

"What, what are you doing? You haven't even entered the door yet, and you're already hitting people."

Dickens was indignant, pointing at Lisa and continuing:

“Father, if it weren’t for this bitch, would I have offended the lord?”

"You talk nonsense yourself, and you blame others for it," said Huck, tapping his pipe.

Dickens tapped his hands and asked:

"What should we do now?"

Huck puffed on his cigarette, thought for a while and then said slowly:

"Let's leave it at that for now. I don't think he has any ill will towards our family."

"No ill intention? I stole his woman and wanted him to die. How could he have no ill intention?" Dickens shouted, "He even sent a guard here to monitor us!"

"This is all your fault!" Huck shouted angrily.

Then he saw Dickens pacing back and forth in agitation, with an unwilling look on his face from time to time:

"Karl is just a lowly slave who can't even read a word. How did he suddenly become a baron? Why do we have to make him a lord? Why? Who is he?"

"Just shut up and talk less! Trouble comes from the mouth, don't you understand?" Huck continued to roar, tapping his pipe.

"I won't give up!" Dickens shouted.

Hearing his son yelling so recklessly, Huck immediately became furious. He raised his pipe and was about to teach his disappointing son a lesson, but he heard a voice behind him:

"Indeed, no one would be willing to accept such a thing."

He turned around in horror and saw a man with a scar on his face and a black hood who had entered their house at some point. The man ignored Huck's surprise and walked to the table.

"I understand the boy's thinking very well."

"Who are you? Who let you in?" Dickens shouted rudely.

Huck rubbed his eyes, and when he saw the shining armor and sword under the man's cloak, he immediately hit his son's head with his pipe, signaling him to shut up, and then asked in an unusually gentle voice:

"Excuse me, who is this gentleman?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. I'm just a small character. You can call me Iren. But you must have heard of my master's name. He is the master of Morgan County, Earl Morton Morgan."

Morton Morgan, one of the five earls in the North, how could Harker not have heard of him? He immediately knelt on the ground and shouted tremblingly:

"So he is the Earl's personal envoy. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person~~"

Aeron sat down calmly and continued:

"You're welcome, village chief. I came here just because I couldn't stand some things. For example, Carl was just a serf, but by chance he became a baron and started to act arrogantly towards his former fellow villagers. It's really abominable."

As he said this, he deliberately glanced at Dickens, the village chief's son, who had already clenched his fists out of jealousy.

"This... uh, Lord Carl is the lord of Rickburg, and the lord's affairs are not something people like us can interfere with~" Hack continued to kneel.

Aeron chuckled and continued:

"I can understand the concerns of the old village chief. That is why our Lord Earl is very dissatisfied with this matter. He is even willing to provide shelter for Porter Village and escape from Carl's clutches."

"This……"

Huck didn't know what to say, but Dickens behind him immediately showed excitement:

"Lord Morton is willing to give us shelter?"

"Yes." Iren replied, "And the Earl has promised that as long as Porter Village is willing to accept the Earl's rule, he can even exempt you from taxes for one year."

After hearing what Iren said, Dickens became even more excited:

"Father, why are you still hesitating?"

"That's right~" Aeron added, "Instead of being a subject of your enemy, it is better to submit to Earl Morton. He will definitely protect you."

"This..." Huck still showed a trace of hesitation on his face, "Your Excellency, you want us to betray our lord. That is a capital crime, your Excellency."

Hearing this, Aeron sneered:

"Lord? Is he your lord? At the beginning, His Majesty only granted Rick Castle to him, but did not include the surrounding villages."

"That being said, Potter Village has always been within the territory of Rick County..." Huck wanted to continue speaking.

Aeron had already stood up and interrupted him. He flicked his sleeves and said:

"Whatever. I don't mind. But village chief, you have to think it over. You almost killed him. Can he really be magnanimous and forget about it? This is the only chance. If you miss it, you won't have another chance."

"Father!" Dickens continued to fan the flames, "That's the Earl! Karl is just a baron no matter what. Can he compete with the Earl?"

"That's right. Since the Earl has promised to protect him, Carl has no choice but to accept it no matter how unwilling he is," Iren added.

"Father!" Dickens shouted again.

Huck thought about it carefully, gritted his teeth and nodded.

On a hillside overlooking the village, Henry was standing there on horseback, wearing shining armor. He looked down and saw Aeron approaching him leisurely. After he came to him, the old knight dismounted and nodded:

"Baron Aeron~"

"Baron Henry." Iren also nodded with a smile, "It's done. The mayor of Porter Village has agreed to submit to the earl."

After hearing his words, the old knight sighed:

"This is not a glorious thing. Potter Village is under the jurisdiction of Rick Territory. The Earl's actions are naked aggression..."

"Baron Henry." Before he could finish, Iren interrupted him, "The Earl can decide on his own affairs, and we are only responsible for obeying."

"This is not morally right..." Henry replied.

"Can morality be eaten?" said Aeron.

Henry shook his head helplessly and said:

"Even if you don't consider these, you know that once the war starts, we will be facing Alia and her Fire Rose Guards..."

"I'm actually looking forward to fighting her."

Aeron smiled, paused, and then continued:

"Okay, don't worry about it. Go back and gather the troops. I think Carl will get wind of it soon. We need to act quickly."
