"Oh, well, let the king open his eyes and get to know me."
Time flies. Three days later at noon, the sun was scorching and the arena was crowded with people.
The Swadian King Harlaus X, who was made of dragon blood and phoenix marrow, arrived as promised.
The people of Uxhall enthusiastically cheered and adored the king.
The core position of the Colosseum stands has been reserved for the king.
Several seats with good views are arranged around the earl according to his noble status.
After the order was sorted, many lords from other towns and fortresses also came to join in the fun.
Although he was not his real father, this traitor who killed his father was truly disgusting.
The rage of revenge gradually ignited De Lassel...
In the middle of the arena, De La Serre was wearing red athletic armor and a pair of high-quality leather boots.
Holding a Germanic sword, he looks murderous, with a shawl hanging on his head, and he is ready.
The brother on the opposite side has the same equipment as him except that his weapon is an ordinary warrior sword.
"The time has come, two barons, let us begin and see whom God has chosen."
King Harlaus raised his right hand and waved it gently, announcing the official start of the duel.
De Lassel rushed forward as fast as a meteor, swinging his sword.
In a moment, the two men came together and fought for four or five rounds.
The iron swords collided violently, creating sparks.
De La Serre did not rely on his superb swordsmanship, but simply relied on
The absolute advantage in strength made the elder brother unable to resist.
My brother's hand holding the sword was shaking, his palm was cracked and blood was flowing out.
"I will not let you go today, you patricidal, licentious scum."
Taking advantage of the situation, he stabbed with his sword fiercely and violently.
Then a violent elbow to the left hand followed.
Go straight to the opponent's collarbone and jaw.
My brother was sweating profusely, barely blocking the sword's thrust.
He was unable to dodge the second time and was hit hard by the elbow.
He fell to the ground in a panic, swallowed a mouthful of sand, and couldn't get up.
The scarf on her head also flew several meters away.
"It's time to get your lunch, scumbag."
De La Serre whispered to his brother,
Maybe he never understood what it meant to die...
He gathered strength in both hands and thrust the sword into his forehead with such force that his skull was shattered into pieces.
Eyes and teeth were all blown away by the shock, and the scene was bloody.

Damn, this poor guy!
I usually eat, drink, gamble and have sex, and I am short of money!
The one-sided duel result made the audience present excited.
Everyone was glad that a new strong and powerful noble lord had emerged in the kingdom.
If it really is a fight between two rookies of equal strength, Uxhall's future might be even bleaker.
The king saw everything and was quite satisfied. He slowly walked to De La Serre and said:
"What is your name, Baron?"
De La Serre knelt on one knee, looked at the king devoutly and responded:
"Your Majesty, my name is De Lacel, the second son of Count Dilinard."
"Very good, Count de La Serre, from today on, you will inherit your father's title and fiefdom.
In addition, the several subordinate villages also belong to you.
You can have your own banner and recruit troops in my name.
Now, please swear allegiance to the Kingdom of Swadia."
The duel was no pressure for De Lassel, as he had spent an entire night memorizing the words to the oath.
Damn, it's too long...
"I pledge my loyalty to you, King Harlaus, the rightful ruler of Swadia.
As long as I am still alive, I will be your loyal subordinate.
When you need me, I will fight the enemy to the bitter end.
Finally, I will always uphold your legitimate kingship and your legal heirs."
Gained fiefdom: Town - Uxhall
Obtained fief: Village-Norma
Obtained Land: Village - Eberron
Obtained fiefdom: Village - Talboliya
King Harlaus smiled and helped up the handsome baron in front of him to show his acceptance.
"Very good, Earl De La Serre, please serve the Kingdom of Swadia with all your heart and soul in the future."
Next, a lavish dinner was held at Uxhall.
The dinner included beef, chicken, sausage, honey, malt liquor, vegetables and fruits.
Everyone enjoyed it except De La Serre.
Although he gained a lot of territory, the damn King Harlaus,
They actually packed up the former lord’s army, horses, and property and took them away!
Leaving an empty city for himself, Harlaus had no worries and was not at all worried about developing too fast.
It seems that the royal power also pays most attention to the gains and losses of interests. To them, feelings are not worth mentioning.
No
Someone brought up the matter of the real murderer who assassinated the lord again.
The next day, the king left satisfied, and the other lords and earls also returned to their respective fiefdoms.
De La Serre currently has no soldiers. If an enemy country attacks,
Even if he had a golden finger and could fight ten people at once, he still couldn't hold on.
Going to the village to recruit your own army became the most important thing.
Uxhall and its three subordinate villages collected a total of 0 dinars of gold coins this week.
A village can recruit 3 Swadian recruits per week, at a price of 10 dinars each.
What? 0 dinar
It seems that my father really plundered everything in the past.
Full recruitment.
Obtained 9 Swadian recruits and 2010 gold dinars remaining.
You do not have the "Coach" skill, and currently you can only gain experience from the battlefield to upgrade your recruits.
Very good, so a few more of them will die on the way to upgrading, which is really "good" news.
Just when De Lassel was feeling melancholy, the system sent him a new task in a friendly way.
New Mission
Head to the Eastern Abyss Mountains to seek help from the dragon clan.
Note: The troops need food to march, otherwise they will starve to death. One person eats 5 dinars of food a day.
I always thought that only horses and donkeys could be ridden, but I heard there are dragons.
De La Serre immediately became interested. If he could really fly a dragon, fighting would be much simpler and more brutal.
He checked his current equipment column:
Plain linen headscarf
Plain linen
Ordinary leather boots
Ordinary leather gloves
Common Germanic sword
Stubborn Traveling Horse
Requires the "Riding 1" skill. Currently, the skill is "Riding 0" and cannot be ridden.
Shit! I still have to walk to the Eastern Abyss Mountains!
As expected, I don’t want to insult this name. I am really stubborn...
System, how to obtain skills
There is no specific method yet, please continue the game.
Very good, really “very good”.
Count De La Serre decided to set out with five new Swadian soldiers.
The remaining four recruits were stationed at the four gates of Uxhall, east, west, and north.
One person is stationed in each place as a guard to perform the most basic duties of standing guard and guarding the gate.
The journey is about to begin.
