Derrick did not show a humble attitude.

With the improvement of status, there is no need to work too hard in many cases. A little kindness can achieve a hundred times the effort before.

When you are strong, you will find that there are good people around you.

The most important thing is... Roman's status and ability are not enough for him to make an exception.

Roman, on the other hand, did not expect to see the famous Duke of the North here.

This also confirmed his guess. If it was not absolutely safe, how could such a big man go deep behind the enemy?

So he knelt on both knees without hesitation.

The knights in this world still prefer to kneel on one knee to salute.

Although Roman was a prisoner, he surrendered voluntarily and was barely a general. He should be treated with certain preferential treatment and did not need to be so humble.

"Your Excellency the Duke, Knight Roman offers you everything in the hope of getting a chance for revenge."

Roman directly stated his purpose.

His former belief was the glory of the knights and the glory of the Holy Cross Kingdom.

Now, he just wants to let the damn Holy Cross Kingdom go to hell and drag the people who abandoned him into hell.

A person who abandons his bottom line and principles is absolutely terrible.

Derek was also surprised, but he glanced at the data panel and saw a new name looming on it.

So... it's not a disguise.

"I accept everything about you, remember... from now on, everything you have belongs to me." Derek simply agreed and promised: "You can choose the soldiers you bring at will, and I will add a group of officers and elite soldiers for you, and you can do whatever you want."

Derek's generosity was beyond Roman's expectations. He didn't know whether it was stupid arrogance or the demeanor of a king.

But at this moment, he was grateful and didn't have any extra thoughts.

Roman thanked the Duke for his trust, and then went to reorganize his army.

Before he left, the squire approached him and whispered: "Knight Roman, the Duke is generous and kind enough, you can get everything... honor, money, title and even more, but I want to warn you, don't take the Duke's kindness as stupidity, otherwise someone will tell you how terrible the Duke's anger is."

Roman turned his head to look at the squire, who had no expression on his face and exuded a cold chill.

He nodded and said solemnly: "I understand."

The squire did not say much, he would stare at Roman, the Duke's kindness is not a reason for some people to be clever.

Besides, Derek called Baron Barin by the carriage.

"Baron Barin, we are about to reach your hometown. I allow you to go back and see. This is my original promise."

Baron Barin, the youngest son of Earl Connor.

Originally, he thought that his life was just a court title, and then wait for his father to die to share a fortune, and live a life of idleness and waiting for death.

Unexpectedly, an experience of taking the blame brought a completely different life.

He is now full of motivation and has made a lot of efforts for it.

Derek's promise is to let him return home in glory.

Unexpectedly, the Duke still remembered it.

"Thank you, Your Excellency the Duke.

I will take your will to visit the nobles of the Holy Cross Kingdom and let them know that the corrupt kingdom is about to collapse, and you are the future sun."

Baron Balin hopes to get more, so he is ready to lobby hard.

The military force of the Northern Principality is his confidence.

In addition, he always calls himself a Holy Cross person, which obviously has separated himself from the Holy Cross Kingdom.

This is what Derek wants to see, and he also needs more support.

"Take my servants with you, they can guarantee your safety."

"Thank you for your kindness."

Baron Balin didn't feel that he was being monitored at all. He had seen how powerful the servants of His Excellency the Duke were many times.

This is security, and it is the Duke's concern.

Anyway, he has done nothing wrong, so what is there to be afraid of?

Derek also has his own considerations. His army broke through the City of Sighs, but the expanded territory needs more troops to garrison.

More troops need stable territory to maintain.

So it is difficult to swallow the Holy Cross Kingdom in one go.

During this period, of course, something needs to be done.

Roman is one of the choices, and Baron Balin is also one of them.

The two split up.

Roman accepted the elite soldiers and officers of the Northern Principality, and soon found that both of them quickly improved the combat effectiveness of the army.

He couldn't wait to do something to prove his loyalty and... to retaliate against those who abandoned him.

Baron Balin was not idle either. He gathered his men and took part of the income in the past few years and swaggered into the control area of ​​the Holy Cross Kingdom.

He was not afraid of any accidents in this land.

Even the title of king may not be as good as the banner of the Connor family.

As the son of a local snake, he was not afraid of any accidents.

After passing through the front line where the grass and trees were full of enemies, Baron Balin soon arrived at his own territory.

Familiar flags, familiar roads, and unfamiliar atmosphere.

The atmosphere in the entire Earldom of Connor was very tense, as the army of the Northern Principality was too close.

Especially since Earl Connor had been defeated by the duke several times.

Also, with the fall of the City of Sighs, the nobles of the kingdom were very nervous.

In this situation, Baron Barin's team was very conspicuous.

There were always scouts circling around the team, and the two-headed dragon flag frightened these scouts and they dared not take any further action.

However, a large number of troops arrived soon and surrounded the caravan.

The leading knight was a vassal of the Connor family. He looked at the small caravan and his face changed with anger: "Arrogant Rock people, do you really think that just a few people can run rampant in the Connor family's territory?"

He only saw the two-headed dragon flag and a strange noble flag, which seemed to be the arrogant and domineering Rock people passing through.

Just relying on the name of the Northern Principality, do you really think you can run rampant?

Obviously, Baron Balin was regarded as an arrogant noble of the Northern Principality.

But before he gave the order to attack, he saw a familiar face coming out.

"Uncle Kane," Baron Balin greeted enthusiastically, "How did you know I was back? Are you here to greet me?"

Knight Kane was very embarrassed. Looking at the familiar young earl, and seeing his subordinates welcoming him with weapons, he quickly whispered, "Put away your weapons, you idiots."

Then, he turned over and dismounted, smiling, "Little Balin, why are you flying the Rockman flag?"
