Chapter 52 Snooping
After introducing himself, Eric did not forget the question behind Steve, and answered with due diligence: "His Royal Highness Ronald only has such a small manpower, it is all because of the damn Karas Empire coalition forces. Where did you find out the location of His Royal Highness Ronald, and sent a large number of joint troops to surround us—"

"Fortunately, Lord Kevin led the army to hold back the coalition forces, and then sent out groups of small troops to pretend to break out, thereby covering our existence—we became one of the small troops, relying on the entire The army managed to break out of the relatively secret cover."

"It is also to avoid people's eyes and ears. Our entire team only has one carriage, and there are only seven people including His Royal Highness Ronald—except for His Highness Ronald and me, there are five loyal soldiers also guarding the carriage. Around Your Highness."

Speaking of this, Eric seemed to have remembered something, and commanded Viscount Steve arrogantly: "By the way, I just see that you have seven carriages, and you should hurry up and empty three carriages later. We use - one for His Royal Highness Ronald alone, one for me, and one for the loyal soldiers."

"Complete this matter as soon as possible, and after you have finished meeting His Highness Ronald, we will set off immediately, so as not to be discovered by other enemy troops around - did you hear that, Steve?"

Steve lowered his head, glanced at Aaron next to him secretly, and found that his face was calm and indifferent, he felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly responded: "I know, we must make arrangements for Mr. Ronald as soon as possible." everything!"

Eric nodded in satisfaction, turned and walked into the carriage, but did not notice the cryptic communication between Viscount Steve and Aaron behind him——

I saw that Aaron stretched out his palm quietly, then raised his thumb and little finger, and moved the other three fingers together, making a 'six' gesture to Viscount Steve, and then stretched out his fingers as a 'five' ' gesture, and then quietly pointed to several other soldiers behind him.

Viscount Steve's face turned serious, he nodded secretly, and also stretched out two fingers, making a gesture representing "two". Seeing this scene, Aaron drew a smile on the corner of his mouth, and nodded slightly as a response Viscount Steve hinted.

Then, as if nothing had happened, the two lowered their heads together and waited for His Highness Ronald's 'audience'.

Behind the two, there were rows of Angoli, Lacey, Butler Jerry and others. A large group of people seemed to be paying homage to the emperor's courtiers, silently enduring His Highness Ronald's 'audience'——

Finally, under the leadership of Eric and five other ordinary soldiers, Prince Ronald walked out calmly. Not only did his footsteps look a little frivolous, but even his expression was a little impatient, as if seeing these common people For him, it was an extremely shameful thing.

However, it is clear that Prince Ronald still needs the help of Viscount Steve and others, so he put away his impatience for the time being, with a smile on his handsome face, and turned to Steve. The Viscount asked almost lecturing:
"Are you that Viscount Steve Leo? And the list of nobles in my hand happens to have your name and past experience—"

"It is said that you originally lived in the port of Kovos in the Finnish Empire, and then came to the Kingdom of Chino as a vagrant, formed a mercenary group and made a living on it, until you participated in the dawn battle against the invasion, And established a lot of meritorious deeds, was awarded the title and territory by our Kino Kingdom, and became a glorious Viscount."

"And now you have given up the aristocratic territory under your command, and plan to set off to return to the Kovos port of the Finnish Empire? It just so happens that our goal is also the Kovos port, which can give you a precious opportunity to serve the Chino royal family—our Chino The royal family is an ally with a certain nobleman at the port, if you escort us all the way there safely, I will definitely not treat a loyal subject badly."

"Even if you gave up the responsibility of giving up the territory under your command without authorization, I can guarantee that you will not be responsible for it! Moreover, if you show enough loyalty and diligence in the future, I don't mind giving you a chance to be my right-hand man!"

When Prince Ronald said these words, he couldn't help showing a trace of 'tolerance' and arrogance on his face——

Because in his opinion, Viscount Steve's act of abandoning his territory without authorization is equivalent to violating the norms of the nobility, and under normal circumstances he will be punished by the noble council.However, I exempted myself from this responsibility and gave him a precious opportunity to become the right-hand man of the kingdom's eldest son, Prince Ronald.

Eric also yelled at the side: "Steve, don't hurry up and thank you! You are really lucky-as long as you become Prince Ronald's right-hand man, no matter what you were in the Finnish Empire before. Identity, from now on, you will be a powerful figure in the Cobos port!"

"Any force must look at the face of Prince Ronald and that great nobleman, and I will give you a little face! As a low-level viscount, you used to be an honor that you would never enjoy!
"Hurry up and swear thanks to His Highness!"

Steve was so unceremoniously reprimanded by Prince Ronald and Eric that he couldn't hold back his face. Even the loyal soldiers and servants behind the Viscount couldn't help but secretly tighten their hands when they saw this scene. the hands
At this time, Aaron interrupted unexpectedly: "Master Eric, are those loyal soldiers beside His Highness Ronald also 'knights'? If the five of them also need a separate carriage, Then our carriage will look pretty tight."

"Hmph~! Who told you to speak without permission? You don't even have the right to interrupt here!"

Seeing that a handsome young man dared to intervene on such an occasion, Eric immediately reprimanded him without leaving the slightest sympathy in his words, and he looked quite domineering.

However, Eric immediately found that Aaron was in a rather front position, standing in front of everyone with Viscount Steve, and couldn't help but doubt his identity and strength.

So Eric snapped at Aaron, "Hey, why are you standing with Steve? I remember Steve had only one daughter, but no sons—so who are you?"

Seeing this, Steve hurriedly explained: "His name is Aaron, and he is also a."

"I am a quasi-knight under the command of Viscount Steve. I am mainly responsible for the duties of a steward. The servants call me 'Aaron Steward'."

Aaron directly interrupted Steve's words, and said to Eric with a 'respectful' face: "Because I am in charge of the housekeeper's affairs, so I specifically asked Mr. Eric, the other five loyal and Are brave soldiers also powerful and respectable 'knights' like adults?"

After finishing speaking, Aaron lowered his head in a seemingly humble and respectful manner, but in a place that Eric couldn't see - there was an imperceptible light flashing in the pale red eyes!
