Regarding the matter of training troops to improve their levels, the Lord had been arranging for veterans to lead new recruits to find some oblivious natives in the wilderness to gain experience for some time.

However, first the Dragon Legion attacked, and then the negotiations with the minotaurs failed before we could even warm our seats, and then we were rushing to welcome Leah's arrival.

It wasn't until now that Levi arranged for troop training again.

More and more bandit groups are coming south from the depths of the wilderness, so there is basically no worry about not finding any.

This has made the White Stream City guard team stationed at Highcliff Fortress curious about one thing: every day before dawn, the Highcliff Fortress guard leaves in the early morning light, and returns covered in blood and exhaustion at sunset.

They don't know exactly what the Highcliff Fortress guard is doing outside, but they assume it's just to clear out the bandits and robbers gathered near Highcliff Fortress.

What they really can't figure out is that even though they look exhausted at night, they become energetic again the next day, as energetic as wild boars in heat.

"My lord, forgive me for speaking frankly, as the Ke Xianri tribe gets closer and closer to Highcliff Fortress, there will only be more and more bandits. You are having the guards go out every day to clear these weeds, but in fact it is just a waste of effort."

Sir Skye said his opinion in the Lord's Hall.

Even a military novice understands that defensive contraction is the best way in this season.

This Lord has so many proud achievements, which proves that he is at least proficient in military affairs, and it is absolutely impossible for him not to understand this principle.

But Skye just can't understand why at this time, except for the guards on alert, why this Lord Lee sent all the other guard warriors out.

"Skye, these bandit groups of varying sizes heading south may be insignificant to Highcliff Fortress, but they are like man-eating tigers to those villages near the border." Lee's face was full of compassion, like a compassionate pastor who was worried about hungry tigers eating people and chose to feed the tigers with his own body. "I don't expect to stop them all, but at least I can reduce the number of bandits and give these villages some resistance."

In the stories circulating in White Stream City, this Lord has become a bloody butcher who likes to cut people in half and chop them vertically.

But now there is no sign of these heroic figures in the story.

It can be seen that the stories circulating in this world are half good and half bad, and many of them are unreasonable.

Skye was in awe, and he admitted that his previous evaluation of this Highcliff Fortress Lord was too one-sided.

This Lord Lee may be straightforward, and sometimes as rogue as a mercenary, but these cannot hide his kind heart.

"Lee, there are very few nobles who can worry about civilians who are not related to you like you do."

Leah covered her warm teacup with her small hand, her face full of admiration.

"If you join the Church, you might become a saint beloved by the common people, preaching the way of peace."

In her impression, this knight took her out of Colwyn, and he can be said to be merciless during the period. Even when facing the stable boy apprentice who was going to catch her and offer her to Damon, he cut off half of his arm with a sword.

I didn't expect that there is another side now.

It seems that she still knows too little about Lee.

"Haha, not at all." Even Levi's face was flushed with embarrassment when faced with this kind of praise. "Anyone with a compassionate heart would not stand idly by in this situation."

Only Bai Ruistina, who was familiar with the Lord's character, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and was so suffocated that she could only cough lightly to cover it up.

If those villages were this Lord's people, then he would definitely be able to do what he said, but if they weren't, he might even take out a bag of melon seeds and watch with relish, and sigh that these civilians were really unlucky to have an inactive Lord, and it would be better to join Highcliff Fortress.

"My good chief steward, if it doesn't work, you can drink more hot water."

Levi reached out and pinched Bai Ruistina's little face, and said in a strange tone.

He admitted that his words just now were just to cover up the fact that the guards could gain experience and upgrade, and to put some gold on his face.

But it is said that a gentleman judges by his actions, not his intentions. The Highcliff Fortress guards actively go out to clear these bandits and robbers, which will indeed reduce the number of bandits encountered in those villages on the border, giving them some resistance.

This is something that no one can criticize.

"Hmph, Lee, don't expect me to cook for you tonight."

Bai Ruistina angrily slapped away the Lord's mischievous hand, her cheeks bulging high, like a squirrel full of harvest.

"Don't my good chief steward, I was wrong, I apologize to you, I was wrong just now, you are generous, don't take it to heart."

This is the lifeblood of Levi, and Bai Ruistina's cooking skills are the only ones that are passable in the entire Highcliff Fortress.

If she doesn't cook for him, relying on those reckless men and aunts who only know how to save money, the Lord will starve to death.

"Oh... I'm not angry either."

Looking at the Lord's sincere apology, Bai Ruistina was a little at a loss, and waved her hands in a panic.

After all, she can only be regarded as the subordinate of this Lord, and has no right to be angry at all.

"Haha, then I will forgive you generously." The Lord laughed again, touching the white-haired girl's head, and ordered the dishes with a look of aftertaste, "Tonight I want to eat braised river fish, potatoes stewed with beef... By the way, remember to put more spicy."

"Okay." Bai Ruistina's voice was as thin as a mosquito, burying her head, like a white beast that was being petted by the Lord.

"Hmm, can't I handle you?"

Levi was triumphant. As long as this chief steward was given a little sweetness, she would be happy and unable to sleep all night, and would even take the initiative to ask for overtime to work.

Such a good destined worker cannot be found with a lantern.

"Lee, you guys have a really good relationship."

Leah said with emotion, the expression on her face was hard to tell whether it was envy or something else.

No matter where you put it, subordinates are subordinates, and superiors will never joke around with subordinates.

But this Lord seems to have no airs, and can get along with everyone in Highcliff Fortress.

Sir Skye looked at his nose and his nose at his heart, trying to shape himself into an inconspicuous object.

Speaking of which, why did he have a brain cramp today and want to come here?

Forget it, don't think about it, don't think about it, eat, eat.

The food at Highcliff Fortress is really good, don't eat it for nothing...

"Good my ass, it's all my fault for being too doting on them, now their tails are almost up to the sky, one day I will have to teach them a lesson." The Lord cursed, reaching out and snatching the bear paw that Zart had spent most of the day covering with honey, and took two bites hard.

Looking at the empty plate, Zart's role instantly collapsed, and in the end he could only suck the honey on his fingers to vent his anger.
