The next morning, the sun shone through the gap in the curtains onto the soft big bed in the bedroom on the second floor.

Hood slowly opened his eyes and gradually regained consciousness. Just as he wanted to sit up, he suddenly felt a strong pain in his waist.

This feeling spread quickly throughout his body like an electric current, making him frown and smile helplessly.

Recalling the crazy scene last night, Hood still felt a little emotional. Since he had been away from the manor for more than two months, when he came back again, Emma and Bertha were passionate.

The joy and passion of reunion after a long absence instantly ignited the flame between the three people, so that they were almost immersed in wanton indulgence last night.

Hood, who woke up, only felt that every muscle in his body was aching slightly. He twitched his nose gently, and there was still a faint smell in the air, which made his mind sway.

Just as Hood's thoughts were drifting away, the bedroom door was gently pushed open, and Emma and Bertha walked into the room carefully, holding plates in their hands.

Seeing that Hood had woken up, they immediately smiled and said in unison: "Master Hood, you are awake!"

Hood smiled and nodded, and his eyes naturally fell on the food in the hands of the two women.

The food exuded a peculiar aroma, mixed with a faint smell of milk. He couldn't help but ask curiously: "What is this? Why does it smell so milky?"

Hearing Hood's question, Emma hurriedly came forward, put the plate on the table beside the bed, and then explained in a gentle voice: "My lord, this is made by boiling fresh goat milk and barley together. It tastes very delicious. When I went to the ranch before, I met a herdsman who taught me how to make this dish, so I wanted to make it for you early this morning!"

"Oh? Really? Then bring it here for me to try." Hood sat down on the bed and smiled.

Hearing Hood's words, Emma immediately brought the milk porridge in front of her with joy.

"Well... not bad... Emma, ​​you've worked hard."

Hood took a bite and nodded.

"As long as you think it tastes good, my lord." Emma narrowed her eyes and said.

After drinking it all in one breath, Hood washed and dressed with the help of the two women. After packing up, he walked out of the main castle alone. Today, he still had things to do.

————

In the training ground of Kingsley Manor, a high platform has been built.

At this moment, under the breath-holding, nervous and expectant eyes of many herdsmen and slave soldiers, Hood led Nott, Monkron and other capable men to slowly climb the high platform.

After standing still, Hod looked down and saw that the audience was crowded. Facing the many eyes from the audience, he walked to the edge of the platform, cleared his throat, and said loudly:

"I once said that as long as you are willing to fight for me, I will give you both strong cattle and sheep and fertile land without hesitation. Now, it is time for me to fulfill my promise!"

As Hod's powerful words fell, a group of armored Vlandian spearmen entered in a line, holding fat and strong cattle and sheep and majestic war horses in their hands.

The fur on these livestock was shiny, and they were obviously carefully selected top-quality.

When seeing this scene, the originally quiet crowd suddenly became agitated, whispering and talking, with excitement and desire in their eyes that could not be concealed.

At this time, Huo De spoke again: "Now, those whose names I read come forward and receive the rewards that belong to you - cattle, sheep, war horses, and land!"

"Urigengda! In the previous encounter, you were brave and fearless, and successfully killed three enemies. Therefore, you are rewarded with a cow, three sheep, a war horse, and a piece of fertile land that belongs to you."

Hearing this generous reward, a noisy voice suddenly broke out in the crowd.

Everyone cast envious and jealous eyes in one direction, and saw a young herdsman with braids with a red face, and excitedly squeezed out of the crowd.

He took two steps at a time and ran quickly to the front of the high platform, with joy and pride in his eyes.

Feeling the hot eyes like a raging fire coming from behind, the herdsman named Wurigengda suddenly straightened his originally hunched back, and his weather-beaten face also showed a confident expression at this moment.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart, great and kind Chief Hode! I, Wurigengda, am willing to dedicate my humble life to you without reservation!"

Wurigenda walked to the bottom of the platform. When he came to the place just a few steps away from the platform,From a distance, he was seen kneeling on the ground with his right leg bent, his left hand on his knee, his right hand gently stroking his broad chest, and then he bowed his head deeply, speaking loudly in an almost pious manner.

Hode, who was standing on the high platform, couldn't help laughing when he heard what Wurigengda said: "Hahaha, good job, Wurigengda, get up quickly and go to receive your generous reward. When you return to your own land, be ready to meet the call of this chief at any time!"

Wurrigengda stood up slowly as he was told, staring at the figure on the high platform, and secretly swore in his heart that from now on, he would only be loyal to Chief Huode wholeheartedly in his life, even if he had to sacrifice his life for it.

"Nartaiying, you have successfully killed three enemy soldiers, and you are rewarded with a cow, three sheep, a warhorse, and a piece of fertile land!"

"Sudemuren, you have killed two enemy soldiers, and you are rewarded with a cow, a warhorse, and a piece of good land!"

As the names were read out by Huode, the crowd would cheer from time to time.

One by one, the herdsmen who had made contributions in the fierce encounter walked out of the crowd with firm steps.

At this moment, they were no longer the cowardly and timid look they had at the beginning, but they were all holding their heads high and showing their glory and pride to the people around them.

At the same time, the herdsmen who had not achieved anything and many slave soldiers around them all turned their eyes to the group of winners.

Their eyes were almost filled with envy, and the flame of desire burned deep in everyone's heart, wishing that it was their own name that was called out loudly at this moment.

Because as long as their names were called out, they could not only have the coveted cattle, sheep, and war horses, but also get the land that they had never dared to dream of.

At this moment, everyone's heart was excited, and they wanted to kill all enemies for Hod immediately to get the reward given by Hod.

"Okay, now, take your cattle, sheep, and war horses and go to your respective lands. There, you must diligently hone your skills and be ready to respond to my future call!"

"Yes, Chief Hod! I am always waiting for your call."
