Chapter 332: 317, you already know everything?
Sweat instantly broke out on Charles’s face.
He was fully aware of what he had done in Seagull City, and although all those matters pertained to his predecessor, he would still find it impossible to defend himself, even if he were all mouth.
Charles suppressed it and asked, “You know everything?” Such a suicidal impulse.
He was also worried whether Earl Brittany knew about his sister’s affairs.
But he knew that the best outco for himself was to never find out whether Earl Brittany knew or not.
After taking the docunt, Earl Brittany said, “Go out!”
He got off the military carriage first, freeing himself from the dark luxury.
Charles also got off the carriage, and seeing that the Earl himself had boarded the carriage, thought for a mont, gritted his teeth and followed onto the carriage.
Earl Brittany repeatedly examined the docunt, obviously very pleased with Anne’s new position.
After all, which father wouldn’t be happy to see his daughter have such a promising future?
Although in Fars, he could arrange everything for Anne, he was not able to promote her to the 24th Rank in one go after all; he was just an Earl, not the Emperor, and Anne had still needed to toil for a few more years before ascending to an unattainable rank.
Charles held an office in Inglima and the Lionheart Dynasty and held a governntal identity, but he couldn’t influence Fars; however, with this docunt in Earl Brittany’s hands, he could ensure his daughter acquired a substantial status imdiately after graduation, which was the essence of power!
After graduating, Anne Brittany would be years ahead of all other young nobles and jumpstart her career in the political arena!
Even to Earl Brittany, this docunt was a considerably precious “gift.”
Earl Brittany glanced at Charles and thought to himself, “The lad hasn’t bragged in vain—just with this docunt alone, Anne could beco a legend.”
“His reputation is already noteworthy, and if I write a few novels for him, give him a few more years to accumulate, even without a political identity, he could make his way into high society.”
“Of course, just being a novelist wouldn’t do, but if he could also get along swimmingly within the three great empires, then he must be sowhat capable.”
Even though he didn’t want to admit it, Earl Brittany had to concede inwardly, “My daughter really has a good eye.”
“Aside from his character, there is almost nothing to fault.”
“And as for his character?”
“Heh, I still very much want to kill him.”
While Earl Brittany’s intent to kill wasn’t particularly strong, it still gave Charles quite a scare for a while.
He didn’t understand why the Earl suddenly wanted to kill him again?
After all, he hadn’t done anything just now.
Earl Brittany read and reread the docunt seven or eight tis before finally putting it away carefully and contentedly. It was, after all, a personal docunt from the current Lionheart King, a valued item even among the great nobility. Not to ntion, this docunt was closely related to Anne’s future prospects.
Having put away the docunt, Earl Brittany asked indifferently, “Which country do you plan to settle in, in the future?”
Charles did not understand why Earl Brittany would bring up the matter. He carefully said, “That, of course, depends on your wishes, as well as Anne’s. To , it doesn’t really matter where I settle.”
Earl Brittany said, “In the future, it would be best for you to go to Inglima, or the Lionheart Dynasty would be fine as well. The New Continent is also a good choice.”
Charles didn’t understand what the Earl ant by that.
Logically speaking, the Earl shouldn’t be the one to bring a couple together, especially since he included Anne in “you guys.”
After a mont of thought, he suddenly felt a chill and whispered, “I will follow your arrangents completely.”
Earl Brittany whispered, “Go ahead!”
“Perhaps you could even settle in Fars in the future. Who knows!”
Not daring to speak further, Charles quietly descended the dark and luxurious hillside, but a cold sweat had broken out all over him.
Although Earl Brittany did not say much, and even seed to approve of his relationship with Anne, the Earl also vaguely hinted at the danger of their staying in Fars.
“Could it be that Fars is going to be defeated?”
“Or could it be that the Brittany Family is in danger?”
After pondering for a while and finding no answer, Charles had no choice but to stop dwelling on it.
He issued an order to his subordinates to take the utmost care of Earl Brittany and not to let any mishap occur.
He was also secretly relieved to have left Taoles and Belisa in Machu Picchu and sent Anatasiya to Behemoth. Otherwise, if the Westwind Knights were to see these beautiful girls, it would certainly leave a very bad impression on Earl Brittany.
The war at the front lines did not wane with the arrival of Earl Brittany and Viscount Constantine; on the contrary, it increased in intensity. The Black Phoenix Dynasty kept sending reinforcents, and the number of Sacred Order mbers at the front lines exceeded ten. The Fars Empire did not send additional support, but not long after the beginning of the war, a reinforcent unit from Inglima arrived, bringing the number of Sacred Order mbers on the Fars side to over ten as well.
The armies on both sides kept maneuvering, locked in a drawn-out and repetitive struggle within the borders of the South Seraph Region.
With the passage of the great armies, many areas of South Seraph beca uninhabited wastelands. Several cities were completely destroyed, and countless South Seraph citizens were displaced.
Under orders from Earl Brittany to avoid joining the fight, Charles could only focus all his efforts on the relief work for the people of South Seraph, continuously sending those who had lost their hos due to the war to the rear, and then onwards to different cities.
In Cappadocia City, nilman, who controlled two cities and three Transcendent warships, including two Magical Alchemy Warships captured from Byron, as well as over two hundred warships, urgently needed a large population. The uninterrupted flow of South Seraph people brought by Charles satisfied her needs.
Recently, nilman was attempting to persuade three Sacred Order mbers who were previously guards at St. Michael Island, but without any success.
After Charles signed the Magic Contract with Golden Ram Herolf and seized St. Michael Island, he left the island and did not stay in Cappadocia City, but went straight back to the front lines at Sedona. Thus, he was not involved in the matter.
Although the three Sacred Order mbers had been imprisoned for a long ti, Golden Ram Herolf had always wanted to win them over and had not inflicted too much torture on them. They were unwilling to serve the old mountain, nor were they willing to serve nilman.
However, nilman was also reluctant to release them. If these Sacred Order mbers were freed, they might beco her enemies.
nilman certainly did not wish to gain three additional Sacred Order enemies.
She sotis thought of how Charles was able to effortlessly assemble soldiers from various complicated sources, employ strategies, and earn the “loyalty” of Golden Ram Herolf. If this junior was here, he would surely be able to solve the problem. But she also knew that South Seraph was currently engulfed in a major war and that after Ferlanden, it was another gigantic battle. He couldn’t possibly leave to attend to another matter, leaving her only to sigh deeply.
