For War Merit and Battle Merit, Velin is naturally understood.
According to the provisions of the kingdom's promotion system, War Merit can be obtained by hanging monster heads, making contributions during non-war periods, receiving awards from the King, etc.
However, Battle Merit can only be obtained on the battlefield. In other words, it must be obtained by launching a foreign war in the kingdom. There are strict review rules. In addition, there are no other ways to obtain it. Even the country Royal Capital cannot be given to any noble Battle Merit out of thin air.
This military operation against Gray Mang Wasteland Monster Clan is in a sense a type of foreign war, and a certain threshold must be reached to join the war.
"Velin, do you know how many noble families participated in this military operation?"
Faced with Brian's question, Velin was confused and asked, "Cousin, just tell me."
"There are seventeen families in total, not half the number of [Cadro Province nobles]." Brian took a deep look at Velin, and then said, "You are the only reserve noble."
Velin suddenly understood in his heart.
Battle Merit Not every noble has the opportunity to obtain it, and a certain threshold is required to participate in military operations.
"Uncle, how much Battle Merit do you still have?" Velin turned his head and looked at Olcott and Edgar and asked.
"During my tenure as leader, I received thirteen Battle Merit, plus the Battle Merit I inherited from my father, the total is twenty-seven, and there are still three short of reaching the standard." Edgar was the first to say.
Then, Olcott also said, "I have accumulated a total of twenty Battle Merit, and there is still one left."
"If we are assigned the second-line assistant position this time, we may not be able to earn much Battle Merit at all. Then we can only wait for the next opportunity."
"This wait may last more than ten or twenty years. After all, there are not many wars on the western border, and the chances of obtaining Battle Merit are even less."
Listening to the words of the two cousins and looking at their ages, Verinton knew that they were not exaggerating.
"Sir, there is an adult visiting outside, claiming to be Aunt Lord Velin." A Silver Knight entered the camp and reported to Olcott.
Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Velin opened his mouth to explain, "Cousin, cousin, it should be Aunt Flora."
"Invite the other party in."
Silver Knight took the order and exited the tent.
After a while, a heroic female knight entered the camp.
Flora looked around, smiled at Velin, and then formally introduced, "Flora·Exes, who belongs to the Count Andusi lineage, has met all of you."
"Olcott·Exes, belongs to the Eagle Count lineage."
"Edgar·Exes, belongs to the Count Misis lineage."
"Brian·Exes, belongs to the Eagle Count lineage."
"Velin·Exes, belongs to the Eagle Count lineage."
After everyone introduced each other, Velin was the first to speak, "Auntie, come, sit here."
Flora was not polite and came directly to [Weilin's side] and sat down.
Later, Velin acted as the "liaison" to ease the serious atmosphere.
After a while, everyone was chatting happily.
Thanks to the family's good upbringing and family tradition, the barriers between strangers quickly disappear among people who share a common ancestor.
"Flora, you are developing well, much better than us." Olcott sighed sincerely.
"Cousin Olcott, you can't say that. You are all working hard outside with the help of your family, unlike us who have the help of our elders, the road is smooth, and there is not so much trouble." Flora said with a humble face.
"You can't say that. Elders are just guides. If you don't have your own efforts, you won't be able to achieve what you want." Edgar shook his head and said to Flora with a smile.
At this moment, Velin said, "Auntie, do you know how this army reorganization came about?"
Olcott and Edgar turned their heads and stared at Flora. Even Brian, who was making soy sauce on the side, was no exception. He looked at his distant aunt with keen eyes.
"I have some understanding of the military establishment." Flora thought for a while and replied, "According to the regiment leader's plan, our Knight Order headquarters will be Middle Army, and Noble Army will be divided into the Left Army and the Route Army, of which the Route Army will serve as the Logistics Troops and cleaning force."
"Then, do you know the list?" Olcott asked tremblingly.
Hearing this, Flora shook his head and said, "I don't know very well. I, Elder Brother, may know."
Suddenly, Flora patted his head. "By the way, I suddenly remembered what I came here for this time."
"Aunt, why are you looking at me?" Velin asked in confusion as he watched Flora turn his head and stare at himself.
"Of course there is a mistake." Flora rubbed Velin's head and said, "I have planned a mistake for you this time. Others are still waiting there, so hurry up and come with me."
"Yes." Velin suppressed the doubts in his heart and nodded in agreement.
Flora stood up and said to the other three people, "I will ask about the list. If I can, I will let me Elder Brother try my best to get you to the Left Army."
"Thank you." The three stood up and thanked them.
Then, Flora pulled Velin out.
At this moment, there were only three of them left in the camp.
"If we can, we can't let them help in vain. We must come up with something in return."
Olcott's words quickly gained the approval of the other two people.
Just letting the clan members contribute their efforts and enjoying the benefits without any reward is not in line with their principles of doing things, nor is it in line with the principles of the family's doing things.
Therefore, the three of them agreed that if they could be classified as Left Army, each of them would pay ten kilograms of Mountain Copper, and the total of sixty kilograms would be given to Flora's brother as a reward.
In the Knight Order station, Flora brought Velin to the logistics office.
"Flora, you are late." A young female priest stared at Flora and complained.
Flora, who knew he was in the wrong, smiled awkwardly, "Moira, I'm sorry, I just spent more time communicating with the tribe and forgot about this."
"Hey." The young female priest sighed, "Forget it, this is your nephew, right."
"Yes."
Flora quickly pulled Velin in front of Moira: "Velin, this is Moira·Colombo, my friend, pastor Silver Intermediate of Goddess of Life, and also the person in charge of Logistics Troops."
Then, Flora turned to Moira and said, "Moira, this is my nephew, and I will leave it to you."
"Well, I understand. The regiment leader just called a meeting of combat unit officers. You go quickly."
"Got it."
Upon hearing this, Flora spoke quickly and ran to the largest tent in Knight Order's camp without moving his head.
