Lord of Glory

Once inside the tent, Countess White Orchid immediately waved her hand, and the five guards standing around immediately retreated. Only Baron Hank and the doppelganger, Bob and five attendants were left in the field. There were no outsiders at the moment, the original bright smile of the countess disappeared immediately. She sat down on the table, and said to the smiling doppelganger in front of her with a sullen face: "Well say, what must be avoiding everyone to speak?"

Under the astonished eyes of Bob and Baron Hank, the doppelganger waved his hand to the five attendants behind him, who immediately nodded, and the two of them went out for a while and carried in the captive Dredd, who was dead white and only half alive because of excessive blood loss.

"Who is this? Your (attendant)squire?" The Countess saw a seriously wounded soldier carried in, and the smell of blood, if any, instantly made the Countess frown. But it is good that that cultured maintained the attitude, only the tone of voice still carried dissatisfaction. Doppelganger ignored the count's gaze, squatted down and turned the slightly gasping almost dead Dredd over, revealing the chest armor, pointing to the roaring bear head carved on the chest, and said with a smile: "Lord Count has been fighting for years, you should recognize what this is."

The countess sitting on the chair heard the sound and looked, and immediately her eyes stared. When she saw clearly that it was a roaring bear head, she stood up with a loud bang and raised her thick arm with a face of disbelief, pointing at Dredd who was lying on the ground and questioning: "The Kingdom of Malta. Why is the bear's head crest of Malta appearing here!"

Doppelganger and Bob and the others immediately fell silent. Although Baron Hank was shocked for just a moment, it was very clear that this was not a question at all, but he already knew the answer. The answer was that Ai Xinzhe's reinforcements, the army of the Kingdom of Malta, had arrived at the front line much earlier than they had expected. To put it badly, fifty miles away, Malta's army was already aligned and ready. At this moment, the Countess's brow was deeply furrowed.

She naturally knew what this enemy meant. Very decisively, the count drew out her sword and walked up to Dredd, the sharp tip of her sword pointed at his forehead, and the countess, as fierce as a lioness, glared at Dredd and questioned, "Give me your name, before I lose my patience and kill you." Dredd, breathless, looked at this fierce white orchid that he had heard of in the Kingdom of Malta. Immediately, he said in a trembling voice: "I am a knight under the Lord Baron Genov of the Kingdom of Malta. Dredd, Nawehar. This time, I received an order to come and investigate the situation at Green Fortress."

Who knew, Dredd told the whole story, but made the countess more angry, she landed a fierce kick on Dredd's stomach, and regardless of the latter immediately spurting blood, she said very disgustedly: "There is no chivalry, You have no honor. You actually told all the facts. Killing you is just slandering the sword in my hand!" As soon as the Count withdrew her sword, she stared at Dredd and said, "Where are Baron Genov's troops? What are the plans of your army? Tell me, I can let the bishop treat your wound, and I can also treat you well with food and drink. When the war is over, I will let your family pay the ransom and send you back."

"I’ll say, I’ll say!" Dredd immediately eagerly braced himself, and regardless of the growing disgust on the countess's face, he directly stated, "All I know is that the kingdom's army is being unified with Ai Xinche's army, and is still several hundred miles away at Ai Xinche's Shield Fortress. But Baron Genov, following the orders of Marquis Javier of Havel, is leading three thousand light horsemen to a place fifty miles away to wait for orders. This is used to spy out the reality of your side. Only a few days later, when the army arrives and the food suffixes are delivered and placed, let us launch a general attack. And……." "That's enough!"

The countess suddenly roared, causing Dredd to be interrupted when he was talking happily, but saw the countess crouching down and grabbing Dredd's hair with a face of hatred, ignoring the latter's screams of pain, and said contemptuously: " I'm so glad that Flamel endured his murderous intent and brought you here. I'm also glad that people like you didn't appear among our knights. With such an important secret, your Baron Denov must have instructed a thousand times not to be caught. And not to try to get close to us. But you did it, and you betrayed them. Oh! God, the most shameful betrayal!" Saying this, the countess stood up and roared to the guards at the door, "Take this honorless trash down and lock him up!" After saying that, he hesitated, and in the tradition of the nobility, he still added uncomfortably, "Serve Good food and drink for him."

Seeing Dredd seemed relieved, he was carried out by the guards. The countess's expression eased, and she looked at the doppelganger with a kind smile and said, "Alfred, Flamel. It is said that your team encountered an enemy twice as many as that scum. Surprisingly, you were able to wipe them out and bring back important information. Your steadfast chivalry and high honor won the battle for you. What's more, you have gained supreme glory for your family."

The doppelganger who was standing immediately fell to his knees again and said very respectfully: "All of this rely on the brave and fearless squires and knights. Especially Bob, he was brave in this battle and proved himself to be a noble knight with his sword and shield."

The countess raised her eyebrows and immediately looked at Bob behind the doppelganger, but saw that this Bob had a fierce face and also looked foolish. At once the interest threw eight points. But still with a smile said: "You are an excellent knight." Bob, however, was full of excitement and knelt on one knee, with his head lowered to shrink into his arms: "Lord Count! I am Bob Nachvelt. Since I was a child, I have always admired your gallantry, and today I finally got what I wanted!"

The countess nodded perfunctorily. But before she could say anything, Baron Hank, who was standing next to her, spoke out in a low tone with a question: "Count, these brave and fearless knights were all assigned by you to force me. Remember, there are still two brave knights who are buried by soldiers in the cemetery outside the fortress at this moment." The countess faintly froze, but saw Baron Hank looking at her with a sorrowful face. It is also true that if this baron had not teased her, she would not have made this decision in a fit of anger. But you can't just admit your mistake. Not only do you lose face, but you can't step down.

But in this scene, the doppelganger saw it all in his eyes. And he immediately seized the opportunity to say: "Lord Baron you can not blame the Countess. If it wasn't for the Countess, you wouldn't have let us patrol that bush. We wouldn't have caught this Dredd, and you wouldn't have known about this important information. Lord Baron, don't you understand? This is Enos's arrangement, and victory already stands over our Principality of Kasmi. For Enos he blesses us at every moment."

"You…." His own knight actually helped others to talk back. Baron Hank was dismayed for a while. But the countess nodded in a very receptive manner, looking at the doppelganger kneeling on one knee, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it. The long bright red hair looks elegant and passionate. The face as white as a knife is not as soft as that of a nobleman. Instead, it looks particularly brave against the backdrop of the armor on his body. Oh, praise Enos. The pale blue eyes are like small talking hands that caress the heart of the count who has been in battle for years. Such a beautiful man on the battlefield, a knight of valor, integrity, kindness and thoughtfulness. Isn't it the heroic knights in those biographies?

The count thought so, with a slightly ambiguous smile on her face. What an insult to have such a great knight in the hands of an idiot like Hank! Suddenly, a selfish decision emerged in the hearts of the Countess, Orinna, and White Orchid, and quickly suppressed various thoughts and prevailed.
