Richard’s abdication was not unexpected. The knight king was already old. After John II was deposed, the dukes’ choice of Richard to become king was inherently excessive, and Richard’s character tended to maintain stability. After John II was deposed, he strongly reunited the kingdom again. This is his contribution that must be recognized.

However, afterwards, Richard’s series of methods to deal with things attracted criticism. He blindly maintained stability and never expressed his opinions easily. This caused dissatisfaction among many great aristocrats in the kingdom, and the failure to suppress Ryan was even more critical. Let Richard's position be in jeopardy.

More importantly, the king therefore lost the support of the fairy in the lake, which was fatal to the king of Brittania. The kingdom of knights began with the founding knight king Arthur. Once each generation of the king of knights loses the support of the fairy in the lake, The end is to be deposed, and the holy grail knights under Mojana can rush into the palace at any time and pull the king from the throne.

After Ulles died in battle because of Richard’s orders, Richard had actually lost the prestige he should have as a king, and he did so. Since Ulles’s death, Richard has been more prestigious. The general power of the land general was handed over to Lawn Leo Cornwall, Duke of Connet, and he began to prepare to abdicate.

When Ryan thought of this, he suddenly felt a little sympathy for the king. Ulles' death in battle was not what Richard wanted. Even Ulles's battle was an oracle for the fairy in the lake. It can only be said that Egil was indeed too strong.

However, the king is still responsible for this. The order was given by him, so he must be responsible for it. Hearing from Francois, Richard hesitated for a long time before signing the king's order. He did not evade the king's responsibility.

The most difficult thing in this world is responsibility. The king's responsibility is so heavy. People can only see the king's noble status and glorious identity, but they never think about what the person on the throne needs to pay.

"It is not so surprising that it will be passed on to the Lord Duke of Raun. I heard that Richard's favorite successor is Raun, followed by his grandson Earl William. Anyway... it won't be his son Charles." Ryan thought about it for a while. Feeling a little entangled in his heart, he pretended to be calm on the surface, and said with a smile: "Is there a prince in the world for 70 years?"

"Marquis Charles?" François sneered: "He doesn't meet the requirements. First of all, he is not a holy grail knight or a paladin. Furthermore, I don't think His Royal Highness Maugiana will allow it. To Earl William."

Everyone nodded.

Bretania is different from the empire. In the empire, whether or not to become the emperor of the empire is selected by voting by 15 electoral rights holders, and the emperor is elected among several candidates for the throne.

The system of electing the emperor made the emperor destined to be elected only by those few candidates for the throne.

The kingdom of knights is different. In the history of the kingdom of knights, the throne of knights has never been fixed to a certain family or a certain principality. It always flows among the dukes of the kingdom. From this point of view, Brittany Because of the great mobility of the Holy Grail system among the upper-class nobles of Asia, the empire does not have it, and this is what Ryan is looking for.

Specifically, to become a knight king, four conditions are required.

First, the knight must be a holy grail knight or a paladin.

Second, the knight must have the title of duke.

Third, this knight must be the child of the twelve first-generation holy grail knight family or vassal family.

Fourth, the coronation of the Knight King must be approved by the Lake God Witch.

Except for the second, Ryan knew that he had met the other three, and what he lacked now was the title of duke.

François saw what Ryan was thinking, and Duke Winford said with a smile: "Ryan, what's the matter? I can't give you the title of Duke. You want the title of Duke. You know what to do."

Ryan nodded his head in understanding. François knew that Ryan wanted to be a king. The old father-in-law did not object to Ryan being a king, but he couldn't give up his title of duke. This was the bottom line.

Regarding this matter, Ryan knew that the person he could discuss was not François, not Sulia, but the lake **** witch who held the highest power in the country in the high tower of the castle, and that quietly hiding behind. , The goddess who observes all situations.

He became more and more hopeful.

...

After several days of fast marching, Ryan and others finally returned to the Earl of Glamorgan.

Saying goodbye to François, Julius, Gerold and others temporarily, of course, when Ryan arrived in Jean Town, it was already close to the end of January.

It was a rare sunny winter day. The sky was clear as a blue sky, and the bright sun shone from the sky. The road covered with thick slabs by the Earl of Glamorgan was filled with snow. Many villagers Snow is being cleaned. Even in winter, there are still many carriages and people moving in the prosperous territory. Everyone is wearing thick animal skin cloaks and linen clothes. A thin layer of snow covers the Sharon forest and Farmland and land within the earldom.

Quiet and peaceful, everyone is waiting for the passing of winter and the arrival of spring. Many serfs are eager to harvest winter wheat and sow seeds of hope. They have gradually gotten rid of hunger, ensuring that the serfs who have enough food and clothing desire more.

In the distance, the town of Jinn is undergoing several expansions. Many slack serfs are working under the command of sergeants in exchange for wages. The serfs are in high spirits because they do more and do more and do the fastest and best. There is also broth to drink.

This year's Winter Veil Festival, many serfs enjoyed a meal of meat.

In the distance, the earl’s castle stands proudly, and earl’s family coat of arms hangs above the city gate, showing all evil creatures and fallen existences the earl’s powerful strength and firm will, as well as his determination to never surrender.

Ryan’s return aroused enthusiastic cheers. Whether it was a serf or a nobleman, the news spread in the town like wildfire. Everyone gathered to see the earl. The streets Ryan crossed were huge everywhere. With cheers, Ryan waved to everyone, but did not stop, and walked directly towards where his castle was.

"His Majesty Bellegar, I now [Penquge www.xbqg5200.me] has an urgent matter to deal with. The long journey is hard, I will send someone to arrange for you and your people to have a good rest." Ryan said to Bellegar behind. .

"You go busy with your business, don't worry about your dwarf friend, I have a place for my people." Bellegar shook his hand indifferently: "But when you are done, I think we need to talk."

"Okay." Ryan nodded. He felt that he should also talk to Bellegar about the next plan. Attacking the Blackstone stronghold would definitely not be possible with knights and trebuchets alone. He needs the help of the dwarves, Brittany. Also need the help of dwarves.

"The earl and countess are back! Open the gates!" Ryan's butler, Katzenberg, saw the return of Ryan and Sulia from the castle, and the butler immediately ordered the gate of the castle to be opened.

"Openthegay!" The sergeants turned their bearings and opened the gate of the earl's castle.

"Suria, I think we should expand the Earl's Castle." Riding into his castle on horseback, Ryan smiled at his wife: "The place was still very rich before, but if all the servants live in, it looks like It's a bit crowded."

"Um...actually, let them live in the barbican. I must live with you." The female knight stared at him with a beautiful face: "You decide for yourself, my husband."

"Expand it." Ryan could feel Sulia's thoughts, and the female knight actually wanted to expand, because his earl's castle really seemed small now.

Entering the luxurious hall of the castle, the old stone walls and floors have long been transformed into wooden ones. A huge staircase leads to the second floor, precious tapestries and frescoes adorn the castle walls, hanging crystal magic chandeliers, and red carpets. , As Ryan entered the Naiburg, two maids brought a dozen maids together to lift up their skirts: "Master, welcome back!"

The two maids at the head are Emilia, the maid appointed by Ryan, and Olica, the close-fitting maid. They are all wearing standard black and white lace maid outfits and maid dresses. Among them, the dark elf stepped forward to help Ryan get rid of it. Cloak and coat: "Master, are you back? The hot water has been set for you."

"Your Excellency Ryan! I have cleaned your room...what's the matter?" The beautiful and charming Emilia also rushed up to talk to Ryan happily, but the little maid immediately found Ryan was looking at him with strange eyes. she.

Emilia's face turned red. She lowered her head, tied her long golden hair with a white headscarf, and whispered, "Why... why look at me like this?"

"..." Ryan stared at his little maid without saying a word. After this trip to the empire, he basically knew who this little maid was who had followed him for several years.

"Hmm~ Ryan, don't you like me?" The delicate and sensitive inner maid immediately felt Ryan's change. She immediately made a sad look, with tears flashing in her beautiful big eyes: "You Are you going to drive me away?"

"No, no, just remembered something." Ryan hurriedly signaled that he had no other meaning.

"Ryan~ Why are you looking at Emilia like this, it's so rude!" Su Liya spoke, and the countess angrily indicated that Ryan was too rude, and the female knight hugged Emilia quickly. In the ears of the panicked little maid, he kept comforting, and then asked her husband to come over: "Lane, come over and apologize!"

"It's okay, Emilia, I just remembered some of the past." Ryan apologized quickly, Emilia's expression was much better.

For this point, Su Liya and Ryan's concepts are essentially different.

Su Liya believes that no matter what Emilia’s original intention is, in fact this little maid always regards Ryan as her safe haven, and has always been quietly in front of his maid, willing to do anything. Even after completing the courtier course of the entire Winford College, the female knight felt that Ryan's requirements were a bit too strict.

Ryan felt that Emilia really didn’t have to hide from him for so long. He was a little unsure of what the little maid thought, but after being criticized by Sulia, the count did realize that his attitude was wrong, and he quickly apologized. .

"Relax, Emilia, as long as you are willing to stay with me, you will always be my maid." Ryan stroked Emilia's petite shoulder and whispered.

The face of the little maid looked better now. In just a moment, Emilia had hundreds of thoughts in her heart. She knew that this trip to the empire, Ryan and Sulia must have known something.

After setting up Emilia, Ryan said to Su Liya again: "Su Liya, I will trouble you to settle there for Teresa and Veronica. I will take a bath first, and then I will go to see Mogie immediately. Your Royal Highness Anna."

"Okay." The female knight knew that Ryan had something to discuss with Mojana.

"Master, come with me." The dark elf maid led Ryan towards the bathroom, Olica's amber eyes with some weirdness and desire: "Please let me serve you to bathe."

"Yeah." Walking into the steaming bathroom, a large bucket of hot water was ready. Ryan took off the clothes under Olica's service and immersed himself in the water: "Thank you, Olica, the territory is okay recently. NS?"

"Everything is okay, Master, from after the Winter Veil to the present, everyone is resting, nothing major has happened." The dark elf also took off his clothes and gently rubbed his back for Ryan, in Ryan's dishonest actions. In the middle, her long black hair quickly became wet, and the dark maid's face slowly turned red. She hugged Ryan from behind: "Master...the magic power is not enough...I need magic power."

"Of course! I want it all!" Ryan gave a smirk, and hugged Olica around her waist and immersed them in the water together.

...The dividing line of the bath...

An hour later, the Earl of Glamorgan, the Earl’s Castle, the fairy tower in the lake.

This bath was refreshing in various senses, and the earl with some wet hair came to the door of the fairy tower in the lake. The tower belonging to the goddess was emitting a sacred glow, and the scorching power of the fairy in the lake was Enveloping the tower, the cold outside has not affected the dense fog in the valley at all. The dense fog from the goddess still revolves around the tower, and these dense fog will disperse those unwelcome outsiders.

Ryan was obviously not an unwelcome outsider. The earl came to the tower smoothly all the way, and had not yet approached, the lake **** witch Mogiana was already standing in front of the tower waiting for him.

Today's Lake God Witch is wearing a moonlight white snow silver-plated waist silk long skirt, with a full-grained waistline exposed in front of people, she wears a golden flower crown on her head, and a pair of white velvet silk stockings are exposed under the long skirt. Her matte feet, silky feet stepped on a ** white pointed stiletto heels. Seeing Ryan appeared, Maugiana’s beautiful face was a little happy, but also filled with a deep resentment: "Good job. Early, I thought you would come a few days later."

"I have something urgent to discuss with you, my lord." Ryan hurried closer.

"It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you, Madam Champion." Mojianna gently, she took the hand of Ryan and walked in: "It's an urgent matter. Richard can't make a decision, so she immediately sent a message to him. I."

Ryan felt a sudden, he tentatively asked: "Is it about the abdication of the Knight King?"

"No, Richard has the intention to abdicate, but this matter is not so fast, it is another matter." Mojianna only felt that her whole body became hot when she was gripped by Ryan's big hand. He took his arm and leaned against him: "It's the business of Theodoric, Duke of Berleón."

"Your Excellency Theodoric Duke?" Ryan was surprised and asked repeatedly: "What happened? He was eroded by the undead?"

"No." Morgiana took Ryan to the table on the first floor. She took out a special lawsuit with the seals of more than a dozen lord nobles, knights, and merchants of Berleon, with Morgiana's face. Her expression was tangled, she introduced to Ryan.

"The Duke of Theodoric was found to have had an affair with the wife of his subordinate counts, and this involved a major kingdom case! After a series of discoveries and accusations, Theodoric-de-Berleon, Duke of Berleon, altogether It was discovered that they had an affair with the wives of two counts, three barons, five knights of the kingdom... a total of nineteen nobles' wives!"

"These nineteen nobles jointly issued a special lawsuit against King Richard! Asking to dispose of His Excellency Theodoric, His Majesty Richard was unable to make a decision, so this special lawsuit was sent to me."

"???" Ryan couldn't close his mouth, he thought that Duke Theodoric would be fine!

"I don't know how to decide for a while, Ryan, you are a lady's champion, what's your opinion?"

Morgiana raised her head and looked at Ryan.

"Uh, I think..."
