From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 6: Asking for a position

Early the next morning, Hardy knocked on Rann’s room with toiletries and found that his young master had already woken up and dressed.

The window was closed, making the room a little dark in the early morning, and in his left hand was holding a magic crystal that the butler had brought yesterday, supposedly a component used by a warlock to communicate remotely.

Failed to absorb skill points.

Sighing and putting down the crystal, Ran began to meditate. Is it because he hasn’t been able to become a demon hunter and hasn’t absorbed mana, or because he needs magic items to contain stronger mana, or maybe his guess was wrong in the first place?

“Young Master, it’s time for you to wash, today you are going to visit Her Majesty the Queen. Hardy said softly, looking at his master’s look of love for the magic gadgets on the table and said, “You know young master, the plaything is lost…”

“Don’t learn your grandfather. Lane waved his hand impatiently, looking at Hardy’s low eyebrows and smiles, and tapped his knuckles on the head lightly.

“By the way, tell your grandfather, help me collect information about demon hunters when collecting magical items, and if any demon hunters have recently appeared in Sintra or the surrounding area, notify me immediately.” ”

“Demon hunter? Hardy was stunned for a moment, “Yes… Those mutants made by warlocks? ”

Lane stopped talking, a little trying to correct Hardy’s thoughts. But what the young servant said was exactly what ordinary people on the continent and even everyone except the demon hunters thought of the demon hunter group.

All kinds of gossip make ordinary people respect and fear them, and the group of warlocks who know the inside are contemptuous and jealous of them.

Lan sighed: “Yes, try to gather their intelligence, I have been very interested in demon hunters recently.” ”

“And. Lane hesitated this time, really unsure whether he wanted to do this or not, “By the way, let me inquire about a person called ‘Mirror Master’.” ”

“Yes. Hardy didn’t know what the name meant, but just agreed to his master’s instructions.

Mirror Master? What a strange name.

Hardy thought for a moment and then reminded something else, “One more thing, young master.” The attendants selected for you have arrived, they are all waiting for you downstairs, would you like to meet them now? ”

“It’s all here now? Lan walked to the window.

I saw ten teenagers with different looks and shapes standing in the courtyard. They stood in the courtyard with restraints, looking at their surroundings excitedly from time to time, and trying to restrain this excitement.

It gives the general impression that it doesn’t look very smart.

“Let them all stand first. “They passed Ens’ test, but they still had mine. ”

The knightly attendants, or subordinates, for the current Lann are the future troops. Lan’s initial idea was that noble spirits were not much more expensive, and he did not intend to train these attendants according to the methods of this era. Traversers have their own methods.

“All standing first? Hardy wondered, obviously not understanding what his Lord Count meant, “Motionless? ”

Lane affirmed, “Motionless until I return.” ”

Hadi wanted to stop talking, but still didn’t hold back: “Young Master, do you want to train them into guards?” ”

Lane shook his head: “More than that. I expect more from them than that. ”

After washing, Lane went to the royal castle and was led by the attendants to the castle’s drawing room, where Queen Carantha was receiving the generals of the army.

From time to time, the closed door of the drawing room came the Queen’s laughter and the General’s sonorous slogans.

The queen from the royal family is dignified and elegant, but she has the heroism and dashing of a samurai who likes to drive royal conquests all year round, which makes her have a particularly strong cohesion in the army.

After a while, the closed door opened, and the general who came out of Lan Enchao nodded and greeted.

“Ri’an, General Wieskid. ”

“Good day, Count Lannister—congratulations yet. ”

In the drawing room, the queen seemed to be in a good mood, and the attendant on the side was bringing a new wine glass and placing it in front of Rann, filling it.

“Little Lane, my little lion, finally remembered to see his aunt today? ”

“What you said makes me sad, when will I not come? Lan replied with a smile, pointing to the general who had just gone out, “What’s wrong aunt, the war is not going well?” ”

“The Nifgaardians have never been a threat to us. Carantha said proudly.

Lann sighed in his heart, Carantha became famous at a young age, and his wrists were also stunned, perhaps it was this arrogance that eventually ruined her and Sintra.

“I came today with a request. Lan saw the look of interest in Queen Caranther’s eyes, “I would like to ask you to arrange a position for me in the army… Yes, I want to go into battle. ”

“Impossible. Caranther refused, “You’re only fifteen years old, and you’re not even married, so I don’t want the newly formed Lannister family to turn around and become extinct.” ”

The queen stood up and put a hand on Rann’s shoulder, “I know why you want to do this, to avenge your father, and also to make a name for Lannister again.” You want to get your own glory, I can tell from your performance in the tournament. You are exactly like your father. ”

“But it’s not the time yet. The queen shook her head.

No, no, my father’s reasons for being so brave and good at fighting are certainly different from mine.

Lane still wanted to say something, but was stopped by the queen raising her hand: “But… After all, you are indeed not small, and it is time to take on a little responsibility in your blood. I heard you’re starting to pick your own squire? Then you first go to the city defense army to exercise, first learn how to train soldiers. ”

For a while, the system’s prompt sounded in Lan’s ears:

【Discovery Mission】

【City Defense Iron Guard · 1】:

[The queen refused your request to take charge of the army, maybe you can start with the city defense army to prove yourself?] Of course, everything must start with the most basic military training. For example, teach them how to hold the sword and where to point it.

Accept/Reject]

“Follow your will and you won’t be disappointed. Lan assured sonorously.

Caranther smiled and said, “I heard that you came here to help people this year, and you also gained a reputation of ‘Lannister, have a promise’, the reputation is good, but somewhat undignified.” Give you business to do now, and I hope you don’t run around all day in the future. ”

“I didn’t expect this insignificant reputation to reach your ears. Rann laughed.

The goal has been achieved, and there are even unexpected surprises. Rann was about to leave, when a few thoughts that came to mind when he was organizing his notebook last night.

“Aunt. Lan just stood up halfway up and sat down again, “Actually, I have always had some doubts about this marriage with Verdon. If I’m not mistaken, my uncle’s brother is the king of the Skelig Islands, can we borrow troops from them? ”

Yes, Caranthr’s husband has a king’s brother.
