Chapter 37 The Conferment Ceremony
The next day.

Ron put on the most expensive dress, and rode to the palace in a carriage.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, there was an official waiting for him to guide him, and the official greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Lord Baron Arnold, please come with me, we will go to the palace to meet His Majesty the King."

Ron nodded with a smile and followed behind the secretary.

Although this person works in the palace, most of them do not have a noble title. After all, he is only the lowest baron, and he will not arrange someone with a higher status to lead the way.

Because of the conferring document issued by the king, Ron went all the way to the outside of the palace unimpeded.

The palace is the residence of the king, it is very magnificent, and its majestic and magnificent momentum impacts Ron.

It is indeed the place where the king lives.

It was the first time he had seen such a building with his own eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Lord Baron, please." The officer bowed slightly and led the way ahead.

Ron withdrew his gaze and followed them. When he entered the palace, the number of guards around him began to increase. Every time he walked a certain distance, a guard would stand guard.

After walking for a long time, the two stopped outside a large hall, and the officer said, "Please wait here, Lord Baron, and I will report to His Majesty the King."

After receiving Ron's reply, the clerk saluted and walked in, while Ron waited outside.

Not long after, a footstep sounded, followed by a slightly deep voice.

"Oh? People from the Arnold family?"

Ron turned his head to look, and the person who came was a middle-aged man who was black from head to toe. He was thin, his face was as heavy as water, and he exuded an aura that strangers should not get close to.

Seeing this person, the figure of a 'vampire' flashed in Ron's mind. If the other party added a mustache, he would look a lot like a vampire.

Seeing the other party's gaze flickering over his hair, Ron knew that the other party had guessed it from his hair color. From this point of view, Monica was right.

"Your Excellency?" Ron just wanted to ask the other party's background.

The official who went to report happened to appear, saw the man, and said in a panic, "Master Prime Minister."

This person turned out to be the prime minister of the Carlo Kingdom!

It's really unrecognizable!

No matter how you look at it, you look like a villain, Ron muttered in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm, and then called out to the prime minister.

"Well, is His Majesty in there?"

"Yes." The clerk replied.

Hearing the affirmative reply, the man hummed and walked in.

The officer breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to have lingering fears. Thinking that there was a baron next to him, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry. I may not know the baron just now, but he is the Marquis of Norton Noches, who is also the prime minister of this kingdom." .”

Ron listened silently to the officer's popularization, nodding from time to time.In addition to the Marquis of Noches, he also named several people, all of whom were well-known figures in the kingdom.

Among them is Earl Eugene, who has been in the limelight recently. When talking about him, the officer's words revealed a slight admiration.

After listening to the clerk for a while, someone came out of the hall to send a message to let Baron Arnold in.

"Excuse me."

Ron smiled apologetically at the clerk, and it was a favor for the other party to reveal these things to him.

"Master Baron, you are too serious, go in quickly, Your Majesty is waiting for you."

Hearing this, the clerk felt very good in his heart, feeling that he was valued by Baron Arnold, and the smile on his face was even bigger.

Ron nodded, and walked into the hall calmly.

It is said that the main hall is actually not very big, but the interior of the hall is very solemn and bright, which makes people feel grand.

He raised his head slightly, and he had a panoramic view of everything he saw.

On the steps directly in front, there is a throne, on which sits an old man about 60 years old, with a light golden crown on his head, gorgeous clothes, and a hint of kindness in his majestic expression.

King of Carlo, Meredith V.

The moment he saw him, this surname flashed in Ron's mind. This is the surname of the royal family. His full name is 'Cronin Glo Meredith', and he is the most noble person in the kingdom.

And on the right side of the steps, stood the Marquis of Noches who had just met, and he stared quietly at Ron who walked in without squinting.

In addition to these two, there are several clerks beside them, and their job is to record the process of this conferring ceremony.

"See His Majesty the King."

Ron came to the steps and bowed to salute. The etiquette of each kingdom is different. In the Carlo Kingdom, nobles do not have to kneel to the king, only commoners without titles need to kneel.

When a nobleman sees the king, he only needs to hang his left hand down, put his right hand at his heart, and then bow his head.The degree of bending is also very particular. Fortunately, Ron did his homework when he came here and made no mistakes.

"Well, no gift."

Although it was just a very ordinary sentence, it sounded majestic in Ron's ears. He raised his head slowly, and saw the king's eyes seemed to be looking at himself.

Ron calmly let him observe. After years of precipitation, King Meredith has seen too many people. Even loyal guards couldn't hide it from his eyes.

Meredith had a habit of looking at people every time she met, and the process was quick and undetectable.

but.
Just like that, after a while, as if looking at it for too long, the prime minister, Marquis Noches, said softly, "Your Majesty the King."

Meredith came back to his senses, hid the surprise in his heart, looked at Ron with a smile and said, "It seems that the glory of the Arnold family will continue for hundreds of years."

Ron immediately said: "Thank you for your grace. Arnold's glory is the glory of the kingdom, and the Arnold family is willing to guard the border of the kingdom for His Majesty!"

"it is good!"

Meredith smiled even more, looked at the clerk who had been waiting for a long time, and ordered: "Let's get started."

Ron was puzzled in his heart, he just said a normal 'swear', why was the other party so happy?

Moreover, this 'swear' statement is still empty talk. Arnold's territory is the border of the Karol Kingdom, and the other side is the Black Valley Forest, so there is no foreign enemy to invade.

Suppressing this doubt, Ron started the knighting ceremony.

The process of the conferring ceremony was very simple, and it was kept in mind by Ron. It was divided into two parts. The first part was the king's speech. The content was from the history of the founding of the Carlo Kingdom to the current king's recognition and grant of power to the people here.

". Meredith V of the Ucaro Kingdom, Cronin Glo Meredith canonized Ron Arnold as a baron here, succeeding the lord of Arnold's territory!"

The second part is the swearing of allegiance by the person conferring the title.

Fortunately, Ron's memory is not bad. After reciting the oath, the conferring ceremony ended without any twists and turns.

When he saw the clerk close the book next to him, Ron knew that he was already a legitimate baron, protected by the Carlo royal family.

Meredith still wanted to say something, but Marquis Noches reminded softly: "Your Majesty, the time is coming."

Meredith frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Baron Arnold, someone will look for you next time, go down first."

"Yes, Your Majesty the King."

Ron could see that the king seemed to have important matters to deal with, so he left the hall.When he went out, he found that the clerk who brought him here was not there. Not long after he left, two people walked towards him at the end of the corridor. Their expressions were cold, like a powder keg that was about to explode.

Ron passed them shoulder to shoulder, and looking back, both of them entered the hall. It seemed that the king had to deal with their affairs.

"But the emblem on the man's chest is a bit familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere."

Some nobles will make the family crest into decorations and accessories on their bodies to show their status.

Ron suddenly remembered that the carriage he saw when he went to the Royal Noble Academy had the same emblem on it.

"Earl Eugene?"
