Chapter 56: The Generous Earl of Calidos
What a big deal! What a big courage!
You should know that the Principality of Bernardo, which is mainly mountainous terrain in the country, has not developed its own agriculture, and it is very difficult to accumulate such a large amount of military rations to fight a war. A large part of the military rations consumed by Bernardo in this war were purchased from other vassal states in the Jamins Empire. Of course, in this era when productivity was not developed, such as food and such important strategic materials (also the most basic survival materials), it would be necessary to pay extremely huge amounts of money to purchase such a quantity.
It was the precious food obtained through hardship that was given to the enemy...
This makes people amazed like this - such a big move! Such a big courage!
“…”
The Chief Priest of the Beast King God obviously did not expect the other party to do this, and he half-opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.
But no one came forward to remind him or accused him of losing his composure - because others were not better.
Even Feng Kan and Xiu also had the same expression, like a group of carp thrown to the shore.
...Xu, what are your old man planning? Feng Kan. (Speak in a low voice that others cannot hear)
...Don't ask me, I have never met him since I was thirteen. Xiu. (Answer with the same volume)
"Dear Chief High Priest, I wonder what your answer is?"
Earl Caridos's mouth slightly raised, and he pressed step by step like a victory.
It seems that my strategy is very successful. At this time, I suddenly formed such a formation as expected and achieved the effect of shocking the other party.
“…human, what do you mean?”
The Beast King (the girl who can't tell any race from the outside) crossed the high priest of the fox clan and directly faced Count Caridos.
"Your Majesty the brave Beast King, please forgive me for my recklessness, but I just use the most direct way to express our sincerity. Is there anything that offended you?"
"..." Beast King.
Feng Kan is right, this old guy is just an old loach.
On the surface, these words seem to be respectful, but on the surface, these polite words seem to have a faint sneer hidden in the silence. The subtext is that the orcs do not have the courage to accept his "sincerity".
To be honest, according to the orc's straightforward and generous personality, he was just looking for a scam in this way...
——Ah. So he brought more than a dozen swords of judgment out...
"Ha...hehehe..."
After a while of silence, the old priest of the fox clan suddenly laughed.
"...It's rare that the Earl is so generous. If we are still so pretentious, we will look too stingy. OK! We will agree with the Earl's conditions."
"Haha, it's great that the High Priest is so reasonable. If I could meet in other places that are not the battlefield, I hope to have a good drink with the High Priest."
"Haha, then let me pray that there will be a day in the future."
"Ah, I hope so. Then the matter here has been settled, so we will follow the agreement between each other and each other to retreat."
Suddenly, the atmosphere between Count Calidos and Grand Priest Visit became very harmonious and loving, as if none of the previous tragic battles between the two sides had happened.
As if he had obtained some code, Bernardo's army began to slowly retreat one after another, and the dense crowds of people retreated, as if it was a tide.
"Sir, I have very important things to report to you."
He was not questioned from beginning to end. Shutanhadi finally gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth and led his young dragon knights to behind Earl Caridos who was about to leave, and knelt down respectfully to salute.
"Oh. That happens to be true. I also have a lot of things that you need to answer in detail. So, come and follow."
Looking at his subordinates who were kneeling on one knee in front of him, Earl Caridos said this with a smile.
"yes."
The Dragon Knight who led the team bowed his head and bowed again, led the young Dragon Knights to stand up, and then gestured to the dragon waiting beside him. He followed Count Caridos and his group toward the retreating Bernardo army (more than a dozen dragons flew to the sky by themselves). However, before leaving, he turned around and nodded slightly to Feng Kan and the others...
"...Hey, Xiu. Do you think you will listen to Hardy's words?"
Although he understood that Shutanahadi was going to inform Count Caridos of their experiences in Gardtevaz to persuade the other party to truly stop fighting, Feng Kan could not help but worry about these dragon knights.
"It's hard to say. After all, what he wants to say is really incredible. If someone is moved by him, then he will be kicked in the brain."
Regarding this issue, Xiu has a pessimistic attitude.
There is no way to do this. Caridos is a smart person who is good at sensible thinking and logic. But the smarter he is, the less he can't easily believe what Shutanahadi wants to say.
After all, no matter how you look at Gadtevaz, you can't see any logical point...
While speaking, Bernardo's large group of troops had gradually moved away under the gaze of the Santa coalition. It seemed that the proposal of Earl Caridos just seemed to be the real purpose of his coming to negotiate this time.
"Oh, boss, what should I do next?"
Seeing Bernardo's army getting smaller and smaller and finally disappearing from his vision, Gerald took the lead in asking questions that everyone was concerned about.
"What should I do?"
Feng Kan scratched his head and looked at the opposite side with a wry smile.
Under the command of the chief priest of the fox clan, the orcs of the Santa Alliance were receiving countless large carts in an orderly manner. Many beast soldiers stabbed into the sacks one by one with their weapons, as if to confirm whether there was something ulterior motive hidden in the sacks. Many beast king god priests dressed in priest robe also assisted them, picking up a handful of grain-like things from time to time to carefully identify them, or putting them under their noses to smell them carefully, or turning them into their mouths to try carefully...
This is natural. When suddenly receiving such an important gift from the enemy, anyone must act carefully. If Bernardo plays a "Trojan horse" or throws some poison into these foods, the fun will be really great.
The other party was busy and didn't seem to care about their actions, but it wouldn't be a big deal if they kept being in such a state of stamina here.
Although Feng Kan was named "The Prophet of the Sky" because of Aussetin's "plan" and knew the most about his own affairs. He was actually not very familiar with the orcs in the Santa Alliance, and he did not even know any of the orcs in the Beast King's direct troops in front of him.
Moreover, they were mingling with Bernardo's Dragon Knights before, so even if they had to come forward to show their identity now, it was not a good time.
At least... should I say hello?
With this idea in mind, Feng Kan decided to contact this team of orcs in the Santa Alliance...
"His Highness Ralph, why are you here?"
But before that, the other party took action first.
The strong man of the rhino clan who had just stood behind the Beast King walked over with a puzzled look at him, and from his tone, he seemed to know the little prince.
"Long time no see, Lord Katolov, it seems that you have not been doing well recently."
The little prince responded with a smile.
Hey? Are you an acquaintance?
"……ah!"
I remembered that although Feng Kan did not know this strong man from the Rhino clan, Xiu had just introduced that this person was Katolov, one of the five holy knights in the Aussetin God Cult...
A mistake! How could the Holy Knight of Aussettine's God Cult not know the little prince of the Fastro family? He was still worried about how to contact the other party just now. It seems that he doesn't need to hurt his brain at all.
"What are these?"
The great man of the Rhino tribe came to everyone and looked at Feng Kan and the others vigilantly. As a first-class soldier, he instinctively felt the extra-special power under the simple appearance of the people in front of him.
"Ah, Lord Katolov doesn't have to be so nervous. Everyone is their own people, so a few of them are..."
Ralph smiled and briefly introduced the situation of Feng Kan and Xiu, Dimandak, Britain and Geros to Katolov. However, the most secret things were not mentioned, such as: Dimandak is the real identity of the Dark Guidance Warlock and the foolish bird in Britain.
As Feng Kan's partner, Jeros and Cultivator as the inheritor, it's okay to say that once things like the dark guide warlock and the Demon Flame Fire Essence are leaked, it's really bad, especially the Demon Flame Fire Essence. Once the matters of these two guys (Fire Spirit and Britain) are exposed, they will definitely cause huge waves on the Truntak Continent...
Based on the principle that it is better to have less than more things, it is better to try to get away with the real situation of these two people.
"My Prophet is it? Hahaha, I have heard from Turk and the others about your affairs. And His Highness Ralph, thank you very much for St. Ostan for being able to lend a helping hand in the most critical moment of the Santa League."
After the actual round with the Beast King Army, everyone was unexpectedly easily accepted by the other party.
Although I have never met, the high priest of the fox clan has heard a lot about this "Sky Prophet". As for the little prince, the Santa Alliance and St. Ostan can be said to be in a relationship with each other, so there is no need to say anything more polite.
"It's just that I'm very curious. The one who just stayed with you seems to be the Dragon Knights belonging to the Principality of Bernardo. I don't know about this..."
Sure enough, it should be said that everyone is curious about this matter.
