Chapter 792: Call first and talk later

The answer, of course, is no.

In fact, Eleanor was also confused about this, after all, she now had two families at the same time... Emotionally, she was more inclined to inform the Weisbach family first, but reason told her that if she really did so, the sensitive Saxon Dragon Family would inevitably be hostile to the Weisbach family. After all, it meant that their Highness attached more importance to the emotional bond with the Weisbach family.

On the other hand, if she notified the Dragon Family first, although it would be more realistic and reasonable, the Weisbach Family, especially her father, the Duke of Bavaria, might be secretly sad.

So let the Iron Cross Mercenary Group spread the news, giving the two families time to buffer their cognition, while also cleverly avoiding making decisions and expressing their opinions... It can only be said that Eleanor is indeed no longer the naive knight princess she used to be, and she has begun to have some political thoughts.

After learning that this prince was already a demigod, Andrea and Herman were overjoyed, and quickly sent people to invite the leaders of several other large mercenary groups to come over - after all, the fortress opposite was not something that a single mercenary group could take down, so it would be better for everyone to push it together quickly and get the reward.

Soon, leaders of many well-known mercenary groups including Free Wind, Bull, Plantagenet, Gold Coin, Vikings, etc. also arrived.

"Is this the prince?" Hagaral, the leader of the Viking mercenary group, a hairy Norman man, stared at Eleanor and asked.

Although demigods cannot judge people by appearance, princesses can. With Eleanor's heroic attire, she doesn't look like a princess of an imperial emperor at all - instead, she looks more like a mercenary who used to be a knight.

Eleanor smiled slightly and expanded the field of light and flame again, so Captain Hagaral immediately shut up. After all, the Vikings still respected the strong, and even if the blonde girl in front of them did not look strong, they did not dare to easily question the strength of a demigod.

However, someone soon raised an opinion. The person who spoke up was Matthews, the leader of the Southeast Branch of the Wind of Freedom. He stared at Andrea and said:

"I'm not questioning your strength, but to be honest, the demigod stationed in the fortress ahead is said to be the 'Sin Fire' from Damascus, known for its large-scale fire attacks that inflict strange mental damage."

"Your Highness is a demigod, so you are not afraid of being killed by the demigods. However, we mercenaries are made of flesh and blood, and cannot conceptualize. If we are affected by the aftermath of the battle between demigods, we will probably be turned into ashes immediately."

The other party's words were simply saying that although Eleanor was strong, she might not be able to protect everyone from the attacks of a demigod... To put it bluntly, she was still unwilling to fight.

However, Andrea and Herman were also veterans who had been in the mercenary world for many years, and they certainly knew that Matthews was not worried about any safety issues at all.

After all, His Highness is the Highness of the Holy Solomon Empire. If he can defeat the fortress ahead by himself, then the Iron Cross Mercenary Group’s voice in the Crusaders will definitely be greatly enhanced.

Compared to Eleanor, the Free Wind Mercenaries naturally hoped to let the demigod Apilius fight, at least he had no motivation to side with the Iron Cross Mercenaries. Although the other large mercenary groups did not speak, it was obvious that their intentions were similar.
