Come to another world and become a lord
Chapter 99 Going Home
When Carl's carriage just entered the territory near Rickburg, the soldiers on the top of the city saw them. He saw Alia driving the carriage and began to cheer to the people behind: "They are back~ The lord is back!"
This cheer was like a signal, spreading rapidly throughout the town. Suddenly, everyone put down their work and began to gather towards the main road connecting to the city gate.
Then the city gate was opened, and when Alia drove slowly into Rickburg, Carl opened the curtains and stuck his head out, feeling a long-lost sense of belonging. On both sides of the city gate, he saw Selena, the sisters of the Fire Rose Guard, and a group of knights. Of course, behind them were more townspeople who gathered and cheered enthusiastically after seeing the carriage.
"Our lord is back~ Lord Carl is back!" they shouted, and some girls even waved bouquets of flowers.
Then the carriage stopped and Selena came up, her face filled with joy:
"Welcome home, my lord~" She respectfully performed a noble salute.
Carl looked at the reactions of the people around him in confusion, and then asked:
"This is?"
"The letter of appointment from the capital to confer you the title of Viscount of Rick has arrived~" Selena said with a smile, "This news has spread all over the town, and people are congratulating you for it!"
"I see~" Carl nodded.
I heard Selena say again:
"You are now a hero in the hearts of your subjects. Not only did you repel the Great Khan, you also defeated Earl Morton. Moreover, each time you managed to survive a desperate situation and defeat a larger force with a smaller one, it is not an exaggeration to call you a legend."
"Hmm~" Carl nodded again. He understood the thoughts of these ordinary people very well. Stories of the weak defeating the strong are always talked about. And when such stories happened to his lord, it would naturally become a topic of bragging. This was not surprising.
Perhaps because she knew that Karl was now a viscount, Selena was obviously very happy. She wanted to say something else, but suddenly she saw the bloodstains on Karl's clothes through the small window of the carriage. She was stunned for a moment, and her expression instantly became gloomy:
"Sir, this is..."
But Karl just smiled at her, indicating that she should be at ease:
"It's nothing, it doesn't matter, it's all over."
But it was obvious that the girl did not calm down:
"I just went to the capital to get a reward. What happened?"
"I'll tell you about the castle later, but now, let's finish this walk." Carl said as he pointed to the cheering crowd outside, "After all, so many people are watching~"
"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't think it through." Selena said with her head down.
In return, Carl smiled:
"To be honest, I'm quite happy that you care about me so much."
In return, the girl's face turned slightly red.
The carriage slowly drove along the stone-paved main road. Most of the houses along the way had been rebuilt. Although some were still relatively simple, they were enough for the townspeople to resume their daily lives. In addition to the welcoming people, Carl also saw children chasing and playing on the streets, and the market began to operate normally. There were a wide variety of goods, and the vendors were selling their goods vigorously. Everything was full of vitality and hope. Then he saw the "Red Lady" tavern. When the Great Khan invaded, he used this place as a temporary command post. It was eventually burned down by the northern nomads. Now it has finally been rebuilt, still in its original appearance, as one of the more eye-catching buildings in the town, standing proudly on the edge of the square.
The carriage continued to move forward. Before entering the inner city, Carl had already been attracted by a magnificent wizard tower. The tower was built with smooth white stones and towered into the clouds. However, the top of the tower was not round like the round shape in the drawings he had seen before. Instead, it was made into a pointed roof like other buildings in Rickburg. This change made it blend perfectly with the surroundings, becoming a part of Rickburg, and also raising the overall height of Rickburg.
When Carl entered the inner city, he saw the female mage Amira, who was still wearing her sexy exotic outfit. After seeing Carl, the female mage smiled:
"I'm glad you're back safe and sound."
"Wait, did you know that something would happen to the adults?" Selena asked dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, my crystal ball predicted the disaster of this trip from the very beginning." The female sorceress said bluntly.
"Then why don't you say it?" This time it was Alia who spoke, and a hint of coldness appeared on the girl's face.
“First, I have no obligation to do so, and second, this was a safe bet. If there was a problem, I would have spoken up,” Amira replied.
"You!" Selena was about to say something, but was stopped by Carl. He looked at the female mage and said:
"I wonder if Master Mage is satisfied with this tower?"
“It’s OK,” Amira says. “But the bed isn’t as comfortable as the one in the castle.”
"Yes." Carl nodded, "I will arrange a separate bedroom for you in the castle."
"Thank you very much, Baron. No, it should be Viscount."
Then Carl continued:
"By the way, I will hold a dinner party tonight to celebrate Arya's canonization as a baron. Would you be willing to come, Master?"
"Of course, how can I not go if I can eat and drink for free!" For some reason, a gleam of light appeared in the wizard's eyes.
Alia sensed something and turned around nervously:
"Wait, you mean tonight?"
"Yes."
"But the injuries on your body..." The girl's face showed worry again.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Carl comforted him, "This is what you deserve, but it has been delayed for so long. Moreover, I also hope that everything can be stabilized. The longer it is delayed, the greater the risk."
"I'll listen to you." Alia nodded.
The carriage continued to move forward, taking Carl into the castle. Finally back home, Carl sighed with relief. After a short wash, he met with Selena and Alia in his private office, and told Selena everything that happened in the capital.
After listening to his description, Selena first knocked on the table indignantly, scolded Morton and even His Majesty, and then asked with a worried look:
"But... if you kill all the jailers like this, will it anger His Majesty?"
"Anger His Majesty?" Carl sneered, "Let him be. I have returned to the North now. The emperor is far away~"
That's right, when he came back and saw the enthusiastic people outside, he felt the warmth here and his real power. Of course, Rickland is not strong enough now, and he is just a small lord. When he is really strong enough to rule a place, even the king will be helpless.
As night fell, candles were lit in the banquet hall of Rick's Castle, and some prominent townspeople were invited to come. They gathered again to witness Arya's promotion to baron.
Carl stood on the high platform in the banquet hall and looked around. Selena, the sorceress Amira, the sisters of the Fire Rose, and the knights from the two baronies gathered together again. Even Jim came overnight.
Arya, wearing armor, walked up to the platform and knelt on one knee respectfully in front of him. He took the ceremonial sword handed to him by the servant and lightly touched the girl's shoulder and forehead with the tip of the sword:
"Alia Gran, in the name of Viscount Rick, I confer the title of Baron of Thres!"
