Master Overlord - Chapter 391
“Father, let me go.”
In the Duke’s study, pace stepped forward without fear.
“They dare not do anything to me, and I will find a suitable chance to escape before you attack!”
“No!” Jenny came forward in panic and grabbed her husband’s arm, as if he would disappear from her eyes the next second. “I don’t allow you to go, don’t! This, this… This is too dangerous! The wild people are cruel and barbaric. They also have Warcraft and giants. How can you escape safely!”
Jenny tried to say something to change her husband’s mind, but she first said the reason was so weak. Pace is not a person who flinches from fear at all.
“Father’s love…” she looked for help at the dignified Duke.
“Jenny, I must go.” pace looked comfortingly at his wife, and then turned his eyes to the Duke who was frozen behind his desk.
“We don’t have enough troops. If we go to war, we will suffer heavy losses and may even be defeated. This is the best way at present! You don’t have to worry. What I have learned most in recent years is how to survive from repeated pursuit. Father, let me go, even if I really…”
“Shut up!” the Duke interrupted and snapped, “put away your knight pride and honor! Do you want the people in this room to be afraid of you! I can’t send my son into such a dangerous situation!”
“Father…” looking at the Duke’s angry and distorted face, pace suddenly felt a warm current in his heart.
“I don’t want you to be threatened,” he said softly and more firmly. “If I use my own safety, I can save countless civilians in the north from looting and hundreds of knights from disaster. What’s wrong with this! And I may not necessarily die. There are not many knights in the kingdom who can beat me! I must have a way to escape safely!”
Hearing the speech, a painful struggle flashed across the Duke’s face.
There are too many wild people, and there are too few troops in the north. All the Knights add up to less than 20000! Even if they can defeat the wild people, they will suffer heavy losses! After the war, facing the chaotic situation of the Kingdom, the situation in the North was also in jeopardy.
Damn West! Damn Mond Flavi! Damn God of light! Damn Davidson family
The Duke clenched his fists and wanted to kill all these guys!
“Father…” looking at the painful and difficult Duke, pace added, “please believe me, I will come back alive! Our northern territory will defeat these wild people with the least casualties!”
“Master pace.” aside, the bachelor said anxiously, “the wild people will not let you escape easily. Since they have made such a request, they will take strict care of you. No matter how strong personal force is, it is difficult to ensure their own safety before thousands of troops. You can’t take such a risk!”
“Master Beaumont, no one likes adventure, but it’s my responsibility!” pace said firmly, “I know you love me, I love you, and there are countless civilians in the north. Now averier county has been owned by the God of light, and Mond flavy and others have stolen the throne. The kingdom may be in chaos soon. We must have enough strength in the North! We need the support of the West. Is there any better way?”
“But…” the bachelor had no better way, so he could only sigh, “the vassals will lose their honor.”
“Then let them regain their honor in the more heroic killing of the enemy!”
With the bachelor’s helpless sigh, he looked at the Duke and said again, “father, I’ve decided!”
“Get out!” ordered the Duke, staring at pace.
Pace bowed slightly, turned and walked away from the study. Jenny and Eugenie, who had been silent, immediately followed.
After the three left, the Duke looked at the bachelor and ordered: “write to the court immediately and tell the bastards of Mond flavy that if the Northern Territory can’t get the military support of the court, the northern territory will no longer belong to a part of danze kingdom in the future!”
Hearing the speech, the bachelor trembled in his heart, looked at the Duke’s angry expression, and whispered his orders after a moment.
……
Leaving the study, the three walked down the spiral staircase and stone column corridor of the tower until the unimpeded sunshine made people feel dazzling. Jenny, who had been silent, turned around and hugged pace.
“Why is it like this…” she burst into tears, sobbed in her voice, and hugged her husband with unprecedented strength. “I hurt you, I hurt you… Pace, pace, I’m useless, I’ll only bring trouble…”
Jenny’s sobbing was full of remorse.
What can she do?
What she has experienced in recent months is more complex than what she has experienced in her past life.
She wrote many letters to her father, hoping that he could send troops together with the nobles in the west, but except for the initial reply to comfort her, she failed to win a soldier for the north. On matters related to the life and death interests of the family and territory, her father completely forgot her daughter’s feelings.
She tried to keep calm, walked in the garden as usual, took care of the chores in the castle, and did her best not to cause trouble to anyone. But this marriage made her unable to stand on her feet again and again. This time, his husband had to be trapped in the enemy camp in exchange for the trust of the wild people.
In the sleepless night, she wished she had never seen pace… At least, she wouldn’t be so painful and hurt her beloved.
Pace wiped tears for Jenny, gently said comforting words, and repeatedly guaranteed that he would return safely, all the troubles would pass, and the days would return to peace and beauty.
“Oh!” Eugenie muttered deliberately, looking at the two people who hugged each other and were different in life and death. “The king of the wild people is really a brainless guy. His father obviously likes me better, but he only wants pace, a fool. No matter what you think, a little girl like me should be more suitable for being a hostage…”
As she spoke, her voice gradually fell down, her throat seemed to be stuffed with a walnut, and her eyes were slightly red.
Pace looked at Eugenie and reached out to rub her head, but his arm was opened in mid air.
“Our enemies are not just wild people!” she looked up at pace, her eyes red and determined. “The green and Davidson families are secretly gathering people. They are likely to start a war after we fight the wild people. My father was going to solve the two families together after defeating the wild people, but they were aware of the crisis, so they planned to take the initiative to start a war.”
Pace looked at Eugenie in surprise: “how do you know this? Your father told you? Why don’t I know?”
“Leave it alone!” Eugenie then explained. “You’d better write to Arthur tustra immediately and ask him to help create some trouble for the Green family. Now the two families are buying a large number of weapons from him, including the people of the God of light. At that time, they may have as many as 10000 or 20000 troops.”
“This time we will not only defeat the wild people and unite with the west, but also completely eliminate the traitors in the North!”
