Working Prophet.

It's no wonder that Miss Rabbit looks like a country bumpkin at this time. In fact, people who see this city for the first time have similar expressions on her face.

Right now is the eve of the martial arts tournament, outside the city gate there are strangers who are in a daze like the female lord.

It took a while for Ilea to come back to her senses, and said with emotion, "Is this the capital of the kingdom? It turns out that the stories that the nuns told me when I was young are all true. There really is such a majestic city in this world.

"No, the place called Pingdingshan in the moving picture shown by the Prophet Merlin seems to be more majestic. I heard from the Prophet Merlin that there are nearly 500 million people living there.

"I can't imagine what it's like to have 500 million people living in a city. I heard that almost 40 people live in Lionheart Castle, which is already an astronomical figure.

"There must be more people inside now." Ferdinand said, "We arrived a few days later than planned. I don't know if there are any vacant rooms in the hotel."

"Don't worry, I asked someone to book a room for us in advance, but at that time I didn't expect there would be so many of us."

As the female lord spoke, she glanced at the group of refugees behind her.

"What did Merlin say?" the Patriarch of the Bathory family asked.

"There is probably not much room in the city. Let them live outside the city first. The monks of the Shuangxiu Church have already gone into the city to buy food and tents. Fortunately, it is just autumn and the weather is still hot. Let them live outside for a while. Time shouldn't be too much of an issue."

In fact, not only the followers of Shuangxiu Sect, many tents have already been set up outside the Lion Heart Castle.

His Majesty the Emperor reopened the martial arts tournament. This grand event not only attracted warriors from the empire and many spectators, it also caused quite a stir among the dwarves and elves.

In particular, the current queen herself is from the elf royal family, so the elves also sent a huge mission to make the city even more lively.

Not to mention vacant rooms, there are not many open spaces to sleep now, so some people have to live outside the city.

Ilea then took some time to help the Shuangxiu Church settle the refugees who followed along the way.

At noon, I just ate some bread and jerky, and I didn't have time to really enter the Lion Heart Castle until the afternoon.

Although Miss Rabbit was full of curiosity, she didn't have time to take a closer look, and went straight to the residence of the Second Knight Order.

Ilea told the guard at the gate that she wanted to see Torres, and not long after, a man with long ears like her came out of the camp.

"Uncle Torres." Seeing the visitor, the female lord immediately pricked up her ears and said excitedly.

"Master Patriarch." The man bowed to the girl before saying, "You are finally here."

His tone was also full of joy, "The thing about the previous votes..."

"It's all over. I know that it was your great-grandmother Ona who asked you to vote for Blanco. Ona and I have already reconciled, let alone you." Miss Rabbit said generously.

Torres was still full of apologies, "Anyway, my sudden change of mind still caused you a lot of trouble, and almost caused you to lose the election. If this is the case, the Arias family may not be as prosperous as it is now. .”

"As I said before, that is already a thing of the past." Ilea, "Instead of dwelling on the past, it is better to look to the future. I heard from your letter that you will soon be able to become a knight, uncle?"

"That's right, my teacher said that I have completed almost all the training and learned knight etiquette, but if you want to become a knight in the Royal Knights, you must be awarded the sword by His Majesty the Emperor.

"And His Majesty hasn't given a sword to anyone for a long time. It's not right to say that. In fact, he has been canonized as a knight recently."

"Which lucky person is this lucky?" Miss Rabbit blurted out, and only realized halfway through the sentence, "Wait, could it be..."

"That's right, it's you, and His Majesty even gave you his own sword." Torres was happy for Ilea, but there was a bit of bitterness in his smile.

At the beginning, he was favored by his teacher. He left his hometown when he was 11 years old, and came to the capital with his teacher. He worked in the teacher's house for four years and learned horse riding, swordsmanship and archery at the same time.

He didn't become a retinue knight until he was 15 years old, and he became a retinue knight for 12 years, during which time he didn't go home much.

Seeing that he could finally make it to the end, he did not expect to catch up with His Majesty the Emperor and believe in the Goddess of Life. He was busy exploring the way of life with Priest Cornelia every day, and completely forgot about giving the sword.

Theoretically, up to His Majesty the Emperor, down to a small lord like Ilea, all have the right to confer knights.

Torres wasn't so hard-headed that he wanted to hang himself from a tree, but the problem was that he was now a member of the Royal Knights, and as long as he didn't leave the Royal Knights for a day, he couldn't find other lords to enshrine him.

I don't know how long it will take to become a knight.

Torres then remembered something, and said to Ilea, "This is not a place for chatting, I have already booked a hotel for you, let's talk about it there."

The female lord didn't say anything after hearing the words, and was about to leave with her uncle.

Unexpectedly, a few young men walked out of the barracks behind them and came straight to her.

When Torres saw those people, his face changed slightly, "Freckles, young wolf, Hercules, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting," the young man with freckles said with a smile, "I just heard that the dragon slayer knight is coming, so come out and admire her heroic appearance."

"She is much weaker than the rumors. I don't see how she can kill a black dragon. I bet she can't even catch my punch."

The tallest and most burly of the three of them also spoke.

"It seems that we can also go to slay the dragon." Finally the man continued, "Your Majesty would rather give his sword to such a woman than use it to confer titles on us. This is really the tragedy of the empire. .”

"Shut up, you bastards." Torres said angrily, "Let me hear you insulting the head of the Arias family again, and I will fight you."

"You can't beat me, Torres, you and I both know this." The pup grinned, "Besides, we didn't insult her, we were just stating a fact."

"You leave here first, just go to the Stride Hotel and report my name." Torres lowered his voice and said quickly, "I will find you after I have dealt with the matter here."

However, he obviously underestimated his niece's temper.

Miss Rabbit not only didn't leave, but took half a step forward, and glanced at the three people in front of her.

"What are you looking at?" Freckles asked.

"Jealousy, arrogance, and pathetic. I saw three complete losers. Because they couldn't become knights, they could only complain and vent their anger on people who are better than them." The female lord said lightly.
