Ai Keli was rewarded by His Majesty the King for her victory in the border war.

She was officially created a count.

It has a territory of a large city-state with an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of hectares, with mountains, rivers and lakes. It is roughly equivalent to the area of ​​a Yuncheng city, which is quite huge.

In this card world, the area of ​​land is larger than you can imagine.

Even an ordinary kingdom owns nearly 9 million square kilometers of land.

Therefore, any territory you divide out will have an area as huge as a province.

The reason why His Majesty the King conferred the title of Earl of Ai Keli is.

Under her leadership, they successfully defeated the Holy See of Light, won the border battle, and gained bargaining chips.

The enthronement ceremony ended quickly.

Aikoli can form her own guard and local army.

The king also gave the symbol of the earl's power to Ai Keli.

At this moment, His Majesty the King stretched out his sword and said, "From now on you will be my earl, defend my kingdom, and develop my territory."

"I obey your command!"

Aikoli took the sword with both hands.

This means the canonization ceremony is over.

When Grandma Gu saw this scene, a look of joy appeared on her face.

After Ai Keli became a count, no one dared to bully her anymore. After all, the title belonged to the nobility in the kingdom, and they were nobility with real power.

Even the magic academy has to be respectful.

After the enthronement ceremony was over, Luo Sheng and Aikeli returned to the manor.

I met Mr. Hunter in the manor.

"Teacher, are you also here to celebrate my obtaining the title?" At this moment, Aikoli looked like a student in front of Mr. Hunt, without the slightest sense of superiority.

Mr. Hunter shook his head. “In addition to congratulating you, I also want you to leave as soon as possible.”

Luo Sheng and Ai Keli both had strange looks on their faces.

Mr. Hunt then explained: "The king wants to prepare for peace talks with them, and you are the bargaining chips in the talks, so in the future, the Holy See of Light will target you as long as you die in battle.

His Majesty the King will have one less condition for peace talks, so His Majesty the King will enthrone you.

It was not only done for the civilians of the entire capital, but also for the Holy See of Light, in order to gain an important bargaining chip.

Your territory is located on the border and is the only way to the capital. If the Holy See of Light wants to attack the capital, it will definitely pass through your territory and a war will break out with you."

Mr. Hunter explained in detail.

After hearing this, Ai Keli and Luo Sheng were slightly stunned.

No wonder His Majesty the King was so anxious to enthrone Aikoli.

It turns out that he just wanted to use her as a bargaining chip.

They even gave her a piece of fertile land, but this place was located on a major transportation route, which was a choke point. It was obvious that they wanted to push the firepower of the Holy See of Light onto her.

Although Luo Sheng was a little depressed, even angry.

I feel like I've been tricked.

But he was not anxious. Instead, he asked Mr. Hunter: "We have clearly won a victory, why is the king so anxious to make peace with them?"

Luo Sheng had read in the newspaper that the conditions for peace talks meant losing power.

Generally, an enlightened king would not accept such conditions.

But now, the king is very anxious to negotiate, obviously there are some unknown secrets.

Mr. Hunt nodded, "Because the Holy See of Light massacred the royal family of the Kingdom of Ankara, and even the surrounding countries suffered the same fate. Their attack speed was too fast to be stopped.

Even many royal members of other kingdoms have been killed.

So, our king is afraid, he is afraid that he will be the next one.

What's more, the Holy See of Light has already conquered another kingdom while fighting on our border.

Today, the territory owned by the Holy See of Light exceeds that of most countries, and is even the largest empire in the world.

Our king will surely be afraid of such a powerful opponent."

As Mr. Hunt spoke, he sighed helplessly.

Obviously he knew such a good situation, but because of His Majesty the King's fear, the country has lost some initiative and is now quite passive.

Mr. Hunt looked at Aikeli and Luo Sheng, "One is the most outstanding student in our academy, and the other is the most outstanding teacher. I can't watch you being pushed into the abyss by the king."

Luo Sheng looked at Mr. Hunter who came over to remind him.

Quite touched.

However, he still said: "Mr. Hunt, don't worry, we will not be defeated so easily. Even the Holy See of Light can't do anything to us."

"Are you sure you can handle them? I heard that Mr. Pulai has used some dark secret recipe to transform himself into a powerful monster. He even has more powerful power than the dean."

Mr. Hunter had a sad look on his face as he spoke.

Especially on the old face, fatigue is evident.

Obviously the magic academy has made a lot of efforts.

Unfortunately, we can't change the facts.

His Majesty the King was determined to negotiate, and the Magic Academy had no choice but to accept it, and was even prepared to push all the students into the battlefield.

Now Aikoli is the first victim, but not the last.

At this time, Luo Sheng reached out and gently patted Mr. Hunter on the shoulder.

He smiled confidently and said, "Mr. Hunt, you can rest assured that we have the ability to capture one of their great leaders and the culprit, Plai. We just need some time."

Mr. Hunter looked at Luo Sheng's determined eyes.

Finally I had no choice but to nod.

"Well, since you all said so, I, an old man, will risk my life to buy you more time."

"Thank you, Chief Instructor."

Aikoli thanked him solemnly and bowed deeply to him.

Mr. Hunt smiled and touched Ai Keli's head. "The future world will be yours. I am just an old man with the last bit of oil on his sleeve. I am just trying to make use of the last bit of light from my candle."

Mr. Hunter laughed heartily.

Then he slowly left the manor with a smile.

Heading towards the palace.

Ai Keli looked at his back, reached out her hand, gently held Luo Sheng's arm, and said, "Will Mr. Hunter be okay?"

Luo Sheng nodded gently: "Well, Mr. Hunter is a powerful magician, he will be fine, so don't worry. The most important thing for us now is to take advantage of the time he gives us to return to the territory and turn it into a fortress."

"Um."

The day after Ai Keli was canonized,

Just take everyone to the new territory.

Luo Sheng emptied out all the belongings in the entire manor.

Then, they were carried away from the kingdom's capital by particle aircraft to their new territory.

Tosburg, this is where Aikoli was canonized.

Originally there was a count here, but unfortunately he betrayed the kingdom and secretly defected to the Holy See of Light.

Originally, the earl was waiting for the border war to end.

When the people of the Holy See of Light launched a massive attack on the kingdom's capital, he opened the door to convenience.

However, he did not expect that the Holy See of Light would lose the border war. Suddenly, it lost its support and was suppressed by the magicians sent by His Majesty the King, so this area became vacant.

Become Ai Keli's new territory.
