Flower of Northwind, Ryan are still training their own troops.
With the Baron Barnes collar to support food consumption, he doesn't have too many worries.
"Dragoon Family's problem is very serious. No matter who becomes Viscount Dragoon, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win over those nobles."
"On the other hand, Viscount Miles, who had arranged his funeral, had a smooth transition of power despite his crude methods. Rag, who has some strategy, is not a stupid son of a landlord, and should have no problem resolving conflicts within the family."
"In this case, in the future Zero Crossing Prefecture, Miles Family will be able to continue to maintain the authority of the ruler, and may even suppress Dragoon Family whose interests are no longer tight."
Thinking about it this way, I'm afraid Viscount Miles had decided what to do a long time ago, right?
Before he died, it was really not that simple for the Viscount, who came to Northwind Province thirty years ago, to stop the decline of Viscount Miles.
"Baron Kendra took refuge in Dragon, but now he must regret it. The viscount died and his successor was assassinated. It is better to always stand by the Miles Family's side. I don't know what the expression of Baron is now."
Ryan thought, and then laughed. He could almost guess that Baron Kendra's expression was like eating a fly. When would it be bad to betray Miles, but it happened to be in the war where Viscount Dragoon died.
He will not be trusted by the nobles on the Viscount Dragoon side, and will also be regarded as a betrayer by the Miles side. In the entire Zero Crossing Prefecture, he is probably the most isolated noble now.
"Master Ryan."
Harrington came to Ryan and whispered:
"Master Ryan, our scouts found a person outside Baron Barnes's territory."
During this period, Ryan trained the army, of course, not only training the soldiers' discipline and battlefield fighting ability, but more importantly, cultivating the scout group among the soldiers.
The wars he experienced allowed him to see the flaws of Northwind Province nobles in their wars. The intelligence of scouts can sometimes play a decisive role, so he trained scouts and let them adapt to the surrounding environment.
During this period of time, almost all of Baron Barnes's territory has been touched by Ryan. I'm afraid Baron doesn't even know the result.
"Kristan?"
Ryan was a little surprised when he heard the name Harrington said.
Then ten minutes later, Ryan saw Kristan·Miles, the former eldest son of the Viscount and the successor of Viscount's Territory.
Different from the successor that I saw in Flower of Northwind before, at this moment Kristan looked embarrassed, with disheveled hair, and his body looked dirty with mud. His eyes were full of despair and anger, as well as deep resentment.
The judgment of Miles almost killed Kristan and cut off everything he had.
A villain who offended his stepmother, a noble who was expelled from the family by his father. These titles will accompany Kristan throughout his life. He will be spurned and ostracized by all the nobles, and will lose all friendly attitudes until he dies in an inexplicable corner.
Looking at Kristan in front of him, Ryan didn't know what he was thinking. In short, his eyes gradually became deeper.
After a long time, Ryan finally spoke.
"I know that you did not do those things. You are loyal and respectful to your father. That is the friendly character of a noble."
"Your father falsely accused you."
Kristan raised his head and stared at Ryan. His body was shaking slightly and tears welled up from his pupils.
No one knows how Kristan's heart collapsed after being framed and betrayed by his father. Everything about him collapsed and he fell into madness, and such madness would lead him to death with time and wandering.
He will bear all the dirty words, and all dignity and glory will leave him.
At this moment, hearing the voice of Ryan, he finally cried.
"So, are you angry?"
Kristan looked at Ryan. He was crying and clenching his fists. He hoped that the nobles in front of him could help him prove his reputation.
"It seems you are angry."
Ryan nodded, and then continued:
"Let me think about it. When I met Viscount Miles at Zero Crossing City, your status was still above Rag. I think Viscount Miles didn't give up on you at the beginning."
"I think one of them must have made some kind of proposal to him and let Viscount Miles make a decision."
"That person..."
"Rag!"
Kristan roared out, his face was as ferocious as an evil ghost.
"Rag, that insidious villain was the one who suggested it to my father. He took away everything from me, but left me living in a humble state!"
Kristan roared, as if he wanted to eat Rag alive.
Ryan looked at Kristan with satisfaction, a nobleman swallowed by hatred.
"So, do you want to take back everything that belongs to you?"
Ryan's voice was like that of a child-tempting Demons, who whispered in Kristan's ears, but the angry Kristan deeply and clearly imprinted Ryan's words in his heart.
He looked at Ryan and listened to the other party's words.
"Miles Family should have belonged to you. You are the new Viscount Miles. Zero Crossing City should also have belonged to you. That Viscount Noble Title, which represents glory, should not be occupied by thieves. It should belong to its original owner."
"Miles Family, Kristan·Miles are the successors of the Viscount. Everyone knows this."
"But unfortunately, its successor lost everything that belonged to the Viscount."
Kristan was shaking crazily, his eyes were flowing on his cheeks, and he was looking at Ryan blankly.
Until the last words of Ryan.
"I am willing to support you in taking back everything that belongs to you, but are you willing to accept me as your friend?"
"All you need is to pay a little bit of the stolen wealth."
Two hours later, Ryan took the well-dressed Kristan to Flower of Northwind. When they saw this person, the nobles here had wonderful expressions.
You know, this person is a "villain" judged by Viscount Miles himself, a member of the expelled noble family.
"Rag stole Mr. Kristan's wealth, dignity, and honor. Everything that should have belonged to Mr. Kristan."
"Mr. Kristan is a nobleman. He should have been a nobleman like us. No, he is even more noble than us. He is one of us, our friend, and a viscount recognized by the empire."
"Everything was taken away from him, and now, I plan to help Mr. Kristan get back everything that belongs to him."
Ryan looked at the nobles present and said:
"Everyone, do you think you recognize the rights of the thief?"
Although there are many nobles here, the ones who call the shots are Barnes and Lynn, and the others are just Lordship from the territory of Baron Barnes.
Barnes looked at Ryan, who also looked at him expressionlessly.
In the end, Baron said helplessly:
"Ryan, we are allies. As I said before, the command of the army belongs to you."
Ryan laughed and looked at Kristan.
"Mr. Viscount Miles, do you accept us as your friends?"
Kristan's body trembled, and his neck and cheeks were congested and flushed.
