From Baron to Lord

#61 - Section 61

Three hours later, Duke Lannes announced the start of the enfeoffment ceremony.

Of course, the venue wasn't the celebration hall. If the celebration was divided into two parts, one for nobles and one for commoners,

then the enfeoffment ceremony was a grand ritual that needed to be announced to the entire country.

The venue for the enfeoffment ceremony was the Temple of the God of War outside the Royal Palace, which allowed commoners to observe.

Because they already possessed the territory and resources of a maritime duchy, Duke Lannes was enfeoffing quite a few people this time.

Including four earls and more than a dozen viscounts.

Naturally, Allen was among them.

Soon, Duke Lannes and his entourage arrived at the temple, performed a prayer, and then began the enfeoffment ceremony.

And to Allen's surprise, he was the first noble to be enfeoffed.

"Allen!"

Duke Lannes held a sword in one hand and a handful of soil in the other.

"I am here."

Allen immediately stepped forward and walked to Duke Lannes's front. Because Duke Lannes was standing on the steps under the statue of the God of War, Allen, standing in front of him, barely reached his abdomen.

As Allen walked up to Duke Lannes, the Duke placed the long sword in his hand on Allen's left shoulder.

"Under the watchful eyes of the God of War, Baron Allen, I, Duke Lannes, hereby perform the enfeoffment ceremony for you. From today onwards, you shall be the Sirius Earl of the Duchy of Lannes. Your territory shall be next to the Thorn Flower Territory, west to Ironwood City in the Thorn Flower Territory, east to the Stranfoss Mountains, north to Kulch City in the Steel Fist Territory, and south to Nikya Harbor."

"These four directions shall be the boundaries, and the center shall be Sirius Territory!"

Duke Lannes scattered the soil from his other hand onto Allen.

The long sword on Allen's shoulder represented the power and authority Duke Lannes bestowed upon Allen as an earl, while the soil represented the rich fiefdom Duke Lannes granted Allen.

"Sirius Earl Allen, grasp the long sword tightly. It is the symbol of your status, it symbolizes the power and authority of an earl."

Inside the magnificent and glorious hall, Duke Lannes solemnly placed the long sword in his hand in front of Allen.

Allen reached out and took it, bowing slightly at the same time: "Yes, Duke, I will be honored by this and serve the country."

Allen's expression was also very serious.

Duke Lannes nodded slightly: "Alright, Sirius Earl, go to the side and wait."

Upon hearing this, Allen slowly stood to the side.

The whole process was extremely solemn and dignified, and even the commoners watching from afar didn't make the slightest sound.

This was the rule. The enfeoffment ceremony was extremely solemn and dignified, and it wasn't yet their time to speak.

However, at this moment, many young men and women, upon seeing Allen being enfeoffed as an earl, burst out with a bright light in their eyes, their expressions slightly excited…

Soon, besides Allen, the other earls and viscounts were also enfeoffed. At this time, Duke Lannes raised his arms and shouted: "People, nobles, applaud and cheer for them!" The nobles standing around immediately began to applaud, but the biggest commotion came from the commoners outside.

After knowing that they could cheer, the young men and women began to cheer. "Invincible Lord of the Silver Wolf, Sirius Earl!" "Sirius Earl!"

"Sirius Earl Allen, I love you!"

Well, the enthusiasm of the commoners outside was like fire. Of course, from time to time, some strange calls were mixed in with the cheers of this group of commoners.

For example, the one who said 'I love you'.

Allen and the others held the long swords given to them by Duke Lannes and slowly walked out of the temple. He raised the long sword high, and everyone immediately boiled over again.

Compared to Allen's popularity, the other newly enfeoffed nobles were almost reduced to supporting roles.

In front of the Temple of the God of War, tens of thousands of people cheered. Allen's expression was slightly dazed, and at the same time, his heart was filled with excitement.

From today onwards, he was no longer a country baron, but the Sirius Earl of the Duchy of Lannes! "Sirius Earl!" "Sirius Earl!" "Sirius Earl!"

Amidst countless cheers, the enfeoffment ceremony ended.

Duke Lannes announced that the royal capital would be in a frenzy tonight.

The entire royal capital began to boil.

Tonight was destined to be an unforgettable and boiling night.

And as a war hero, Allen was the most discussed person by everyone tonight.

1.7 In the Royal Palace, the nobles were reveling in a banquet hall of the palace.

And Allen was the focus of everyone.

Regardless of men, women, old or young, they were approaching Allen, wanting to get in touch with him.

Especially the young and beautiful noble ladies, they couldn't wait to crawl into Allen's arms at this moment.

Of course, this was rejected by Allen.

In addition, with the arrival of Mad Lion, Marquis Crimson Flame, His Royal Highness the First Prince, and the Little Princess, others could only keep a sufficient distance from Allen.

After all, they also knew that their status was not qualified enough to enter the social circle of princes and marquises.

At the same time, they valued Allen even more.

After all, this newly rich man was a big shot valued by the Marquis and His Royal Highness the Prince!

"Looks like you are very popular."

The First Prince Lynason walked to Allen's side with a glass of wine in his hand.

"I don't want to be so popular."

Allen shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

He originally didn't want to attend any noble banquets at all. If it wasn't because he was in a good mood today after becoming an earl and giving Duke Lannes face, Allen might have wanted to go back and see his new territory overnight.

Thinking of his Sirius Territory, Allen's heart was filled with heat.

Of course, he also had to look at the quests.

After being enfeoffed in the afternoon, Allen's main quest had already been completed.

Originally, the system only asked him to be promoted to viscount, but now he directly became an earl in one step.

The system gave him a very high evaluation of his quest completion, and the rewards he received were naturally extremely generous, but at that time he was very excited in his mind and didn't pay much attention.

Allen thought of this, and wanted to leave this banquet even more.

He was obviously busy with everything, but you let 25 of me waste my life here hooking up with noble ladies?

"Hey, Allen, don't be so restrained. You are a hero, the protagonist of tonight. Look, there are many noble ladies focusing their eyes on you. I bet, as soon as we leave, we will definitely be surrounded by beautiful ladies. Maybe tomorrow morning, you will wake up in a pile of women in an unknown place."

Lynason said with a smile.

"Uh, that's simply a nightmare."

Allen was expressionless. Indeed, those beautiful noble ladies were extremely enthusiastic about him, but after seeing the Saint Fairy Lucy, Allen felt that his resistance to women had been raised to an unparalleled level.

These noble ladies didn't make Allen feel amazing, let alone be tempted.

"…Allen, don't you have some special preferences?"

Seeing that Allen was indifferent to women, Lynason frowned slightly.

"No, Your Highness, you are thinking too much, it's just that I'm not interested in them for the time being."

Allen immediately interrupted Lynason's words.

"Uh, okay, it seems that Allen, you have high demands for women. I wonder what kind of woman can enter your eyes?"

Lynason said with a smile.

"God knows."

Allen chatted with him casually, and soon he found an opportunity to slip out of the Royal Palace and return to the villa with the cooperation of Lynason and Marquis Mad Lion.

"Hoo, that group of women is too terrifying, especially since there are still many married noble ladies who are actually flirting with me… I can't imagine it, I can't imagine it!"

Allen shuddered, and then his thoughts quickly focused on his system.

The hustle and bustle and excitement of the day made him not pay attention to the system, and now he was ready to see what rewards he had obtained.

"Congratulations to the host for over completing the task, gaining 100000 experience points! Obtaining advanced magical talent! Obtaining a medium-sized magic crystal mine! Obtaining a medium-sized gold mine!"

Because Allen over completed the task, the rewards were much more generous.

Especially the 100,000 experience points and advanced magical talent, which were simply what he needed most now.

The experience points were enough for him to level up to level eight, and now Allen's goal was to level up to the Sanctuary level as soon as possible and become a true Dragon Knight. By then, he would no longer be afraid of others knowing about his possession of a dragon.

In addition, magical talent was also something Allen was very much looking forward to.

Magic and Battle Aura were the two main cultivation systems in this world.

Compared to the Knight's Battle Aura, the Magician's magic power was even more mysterious and unpredictable, and dazzling.

Those colorful magics could always bring unexpected surprises.

"How powerful is advanced magical talent?"

Allen stroked his chin. He had previously received guidance from magicians brought in by Albert.

So he still knew more about magicians.

"First is meditation, which is related to mental power. Meditation senses the surrounding elements. Everyone's elemental affinity is different, so the elements that everyone can sense are also different."

"The type of element represents the type of magic that you can cultivate. The higher the elemental affinity, the more dense and rich the elements you perceive, and the easier it is to cultivate."

"Let me try meditating and see. Well, fortunately, I know basic meditation."

Allen showed a smile. He had suffered a lot when he was learning it, after all, when his dream of being a knight was shattered, Allen placed all his hopes on magic.

Soon, Allen skillfully began to meditate.

The originally difficult process of meditation actually became extremely easy at this moment.

Allen quickly entered the state. Although he didn't open his eyes, he still "saw" the colorful small particles that were slowly emerging around him.

Allen was overjoyed, elements! Magic elements!
