Looking at the familiar castle, Krober felt an indescribable sense of familiarity. Although this was only his second time here, the feeling of returning home was so real and strong.
Just a month ago, he was just the second son of a small baron who couldn't even afford a basic set of equipment. Not only was his life difficult, he also didn't have a suitable breathing method, and his hope of breaking through to become a formal knight was slim.
However, just one month later, the wheel of fortune had undergone a drastic change.
Today, Krober has three halos on his head: an official knight, the Grand Duke's herald, and the enviable Dragon Breath Knight!
This series of prestigious titles shines as brightly as stars, displaying his glory to the fullest.
If Klar Oats met him, it would be Baron Klar of Deepwater Territory who would salute Krober.
A third-rank official in front of the prime minister.
This statement also applies in this world.
The status of the Grand Duke's close ministers is much higher than that of some small barons.
Let’s get back to the topic.
The patrol team of Huaguan City had already discovered this elite force, and the golden dragon head on the flag silently explained the identity of this team.
The Dragon Breath Knights guarding the Grand Duke on all sides can once again prove the identity of this team.
So the patrol soldiers hurried back to the castle to report.
Count Daniel had already received the letter from Castle St. Jean and was ready to welcome the Grand Duke.
The gates of Flower Crown City were already opened long before the Grand Duke reached the city walls.
The residents around seemed to realize that an important person was coming, so they spontaneously stood on both sides of the road, looking at the middle of the road with more or less smiles on their faces.
This was a method previously taught by the Golden Rose Family’s steward, specifically used to welcome the arrival of important figures.
When the troops entered the city, they cheered, threw flowers and acted happy.
The butler said that he would select the ten people with the best performance from this group and give each of them a gold coin as a reward.
Although they lived in the prosperous Huaguan City, one gold coin was a huge sum of money that they had to work for a long time to save.
So they just waited.
After an unknown amount of time, someone heard a noise coming from the city gate. The smart people had guessed that it was the important people coming, so the stiff smiles on their faces became genuine, as if they were really happy about the arrival of the important people.
This time when entering the city, the Grand Duke divided the team into two parts.
Most of the knights guarded the Grand Duke's carriage in front, this was the first part.
The second part was a team consisting of servants, knights' attendants and most of the supplies, walking at the back of the team.
In the eyes of the residents of Huaguan City, a group of heroic knights wearing plate armor entered the city first. There seemed to be more than twenty of them.
Then there was a magnificent carriage with a medallion carved in gold.
The residents couldn't explain what the badge was specifically. They could only say that it looked a bit like a dragon's head, but none of them had ever seen a dragon. They had only heard about the dragon's appearance from the bards.
But none of this matters. What matters is that the big shot has finally come to town!
The person sitting in that carriage must be a nobleman who is protected by these knights.
So they all smiled, and those who had flowers in their hands threw them towards the carriage.
However, before their flowers could get close to the carriage, they were cut off with a long sword by a handsome knight who was also wearing plate armor but no helmet.
"Really? Why are you throwing flowers away when you have nothing better to do? You have money but nowhere to spend it, right?"
There was no other way, Krober could only use his sword to block the flowers thrown at him, while hoping that the team entering the city would reach their destination quickly.
In this way, the group finally arrived at the castle.
The nobles, led by Earl Daniel, had been waiting for a long time.
They simply bowed and saluted the Grand Duke's magnificent carriage.
"Daniel Golden Rose..."
"Byron Sunflower..."
“xxx.xxx…”
"Greetings to His Excellency the Grand Duke!"
As one of the only two gathering points, the Golden Rose Family's Crown City gathered at least half of the nobles in the entire principality.
Looking at the crowd of nobles bowing and saluting on the side of the carriage, Krober sighed and uttered a "tsk".
"Good boy, at least most of the high-end combat power has been gathered here. Look at those in the front. The one next to him should be the legendary mythical beast, right? The final form of the advanced Warcraft.
As the master of this place, Earl Daniel had to stand in the second row. That row seemed to be full of Sky Knights? Wow!
As for the back, there was a huge crowd of Earth Knights!"
It was at this time and in this place that the Earth Knights began to appear in droves like they were free. Normally, you wouldn't see even one in the Principality for half a day.
As for the Great Knight?
Sorry, the Grand Knights are not yet qualified to stand in front to greet the Grand Duke. They can only salute from afar as vassals of the great nobles.
Not to mention the official knights, apart from the members of the Dragon's Breath Knights, there are only a few official knights in the entire open space.
Krober, who was marveling at the powerful high-end combat capability of the principality, was attracted by the hand of the Grand Duke extending from the window.
It was not for any other reason, but because the Grand Duke had instructed Krober to get into the carriage.
Krober frowned slightly at the gesture.
He didn't want to show up in front of all the nobles and attract attention.
