Ignoring his daughter's interruption, Wang continued his declaration, "They were originally top-tier elite warriors, each naturally bold and fond of battle. But now, they are collectively recuperating because they lack their commander."
I believe that a capable person can unite them once more and expand the kingdom alongside the Royal Knights—may you lead the "Falcons" to extend the kingdom's territory beyond the skies!
For some reason, Priscilla was filled with anxiety.
In her nervousness, she only heard Alphonse's energetic and confident "Yes, sir."
"At the same time, due to the defeat of the Nanman warriors today, the remaining Nanman people will surely cause riots. The southern border of Valentino will definitely become unstable."
Therefore, you, Alphonse, I desire that you lead the Falcons to the southern border of Valentino as soon as possible to quell the unrest. This is the mission Valentino has entrusted to you.”
The other officials in the palace also cast expectant glances at the "Commander of the Falcon".
"Elfs, the leader of the Falcon Knights, has shown us the true style of a knight of the Kingdom of Valentino after a day of arduous competition."
After you have rested tonight, tomorrow morning I will send someone to lead you to the "Falcon Palace" to meet the Falcon Knights.
Alphonse was so excited he couldn't sleep all night. The next morning, he got up early, put on his armor, and polished his sword.
The journey from the royal palace to the Falcon Palace outside the capital takes more than four hours on horseback.
Adding to the strain, the scorching sun beat down relentlessly throughout the journey. Even Alphonse felt utterly exhausted.

Alphonse thought of seeking shade under the trees on either side, but the knight leading the way showed no intention of stopping.
Priscilla didn't come out to see him off this morning. She was probably too tired from playing in the capital yesterday and didn't want to get up early.
It's alright. In the future, once I successfully lead the Falcons to victory in their first campaign, I will return to the capital in the same glory as the Royal Knights yesterday, greeted by thousands. Then, Elfons will be able to return to see Priscilla as a true victor.
Although he hasn't joined the Royal Knights yet, he has at least fulfilled the wish that Desfield promised—she wanted Elfons to be a knight and protect Valentino.
At the same time, his master also hoped that his disciple would achieve something and that he could use his sword to protect what he wanted to protect.
Alphonse is indeed very different from how he was in his youth.
The magnificent Falcon Palace can be seen from afar. The area outside is deserted and completely silent, without any sounds of drills.
The leading knight brought him here, then turned and left without saying a word. Alphonse didn't have time to ask him what was going on with such silence.
Filled with doubt, he had no choice but to open the palace doors alone. Head held high, Elfons, the captain of the Falcon Knights, strode confidently inside.
What greeted the regimental commander was a scene he had never expected.
The Falcon Knights were all gathered in the main hall. That much was true.
Regarding this, Elphons' first impression of the Falcon Knights was—
