With Count Ural being captured and the Knights of the Flame Seal and others being killed by Rhonin, the Battle of Misty City ended with the victory of the noble coalition on Alduin's side.

All that remained was to blockade the city, capture Count Ural's castle, and control the remaining guards and resistance forces in the city.

These matters can be left to the various knightly orders to handle. Roning and others only need to pay attention to them and do not need to participate in person.

They were more concerned about Broll's arrival.

Brower was also shocked.

He set out in the middle of the night after receiving the letter from His Majesty the King.

Although the flying speed was a bit slow at night, he still arrived at Red Pine Castle in the afternoon. To his shock, the coalition of nobles had already begun attacking the Misty City.

But when he just flew to the Misty City, the battle was already over, and the winner was actually the Kingdom of Alduin.

It seems that conquering the Misty City is not a difficult task?

"Marquis Ronin, this is a letter from His Majesty."

Broll handed Bruenor's letter to Ronin. "Your Majesty also brought congratulations on your victory. I didn't expect you to have even taken the Mist City."

Everyone laughed. Indeed, the war was progressing at a fast pace this time.

Roning tore open the letter and read it in front of everyone. He was very curious why the letter was sent to him alone instead of to Garrett.

After he finished reading, he couldn't help but look at Garrett. It turned out that there were so many twists and turns in it.

Garrett seemed to feel Roning's gaze as well. The two looked at each other, and Roning saw evasion in the other's eyes.

He smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty expected that we would capture Misty City, so he told us not to continue marching towards Tricia Kingdom after we capture Misty City, but to camp in Misty City first to prevent the enemy from counterattacking."

Everyone nodded.

"Heiyuwan can no longer continue the attack. We have to transport the Viscount's body back to the territory."

The speaker was Willis' son-in-law, Edmund, who was also the leader of the Knights of Black Jade Bay.

In this battle, in addition to the death of Viscount Willis of Heiyu Bay, the Meteor-level deputy captain of the Knights Templar, Nicola, also died in the battle to protect Willis.

Two Meteor Knights died at once, causing huge losses to Heiyu Bay.

"Viscount Willis sacrificed his life for his country. Please tell us the date of his funeral so we can go and pay our respects," said Roning.

Edmund nodded solemnly. "I will convey your message to William."

After saying that, he took his men to transport the bodies of Willis, Nicola and others back.

However, the Knights of Heiyu Bay did not completely withdraw.

As the victorious party, they need to keep some people behind to share the fruits of victory.

It’s a pity that the master is not here. Although Edmund is Willis’s son-in-law and the leader of the Knights, he cannot represent the Heiyu Family.

He could only rush back to the territory as soon as possible and ask Willis's son William or other members of the Heiyu family to come over.

“We need to clean up, too.”

Count Iben said in a deep voice, "Ural's counterattack was too sudden, and each of us suffered heavy losses. Your Majesty was right to ask us not to continue the march."

If we were to say which group suffered the least losses in this battle, it was only the noble army responsible for attacking the east and west gates.

At this time, a knight came to the ancient mountain and whispered a few words.

Then Gu Shan looked at Ronin and said, "Ronin, my knight is bleeding badly, but he should still be saved. I need the help of your magician Mr. Elrond!"

Rhonin nodded. "Just go find Elrond. He is very keen on saving lives."

After the victory of the war, Elrond basically rescued people on his own initiative. Ronin never opposed this approach, which increased the impression of various nobles and Elrond's own influence.

After a brief communication, Broll brought Ronin to Garrett.

"Your Highness!"

Broll bowed slightly, "His Majesty requires you to return to the Golden Feather Palace immediately. He needs to see you about something."

Broll naturally knew the hidden story.

He didn't say it explicitly just to save face for the royal family and Garrett himself.

"You want me to go back? What about the affairs at the front line?"

Garrett didn't look very happy. He also wanted Elrond to help him treat it, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Broll replied, "The command of the front line will be temporarily handed over to Count Gushan and Marquis Ronin. His Majesty has already explained this in his previous letter."

"Misty City was conquered under my command. I washed away decades of shame for the Alduin family. Now that we have just won, my father wants to remove my command!"

Garrett said stubbornly: "Go back and tell my father that I don't agree!"

He knew that once he went back, it would be difficult for him to go back to the battlefield.

And in the next battle against the Kingdom of Tricia, he probably won't have the chance to command Ronin again.

"This……"

Broll knew Garrett's temper, and he was no match for him. If he tried to force it...

He could only ask Roning for help.

Roning didn't waste any time and directly handed Bruno's letter to Garrett.

"His Majesty has also given me an order. If you don't cooperate, I will have Carlos send you back."

Garrett looked at the words on the letter, his anger boiling. It turned out that in Bruno's heart, he had unknowingly become an "immature and unstable" child?

And he was really annoyed by Roning's weak tone.

Call ~

A shadow passed by, and Garrett couldn't help but look up. The figure of the dragon made him uneasy.

Garrett took a deep look, then snorted coldly, "Matt, help me go back to Red Pine Castle first, and then back to Golden Feather City."

In the end, he chose to compromise.

He was not worried that Roning would really let the dragon deal with him, but he was worried that if he did not compromise, Roning would tell others that he had replaced Gu Shan as the commander.

Roning took Bruno's letter back and said, "Your Highness, go back and recover from your injuries. Leave the attack on the Kingdom of Tricia to us."

Garrett remained silent and left quickly with the help of his knights.

Luo Ning put the letter away.

At Bruno's request, Ronin did not tell Gushan and other nobles about Garet's seizure of command, but the letter could be kept.

The noble coalition left a part of them to clean up the battlefield, and the rest took over the Misty Castle.

More than thirty years ago, there was a rumor that whoever occupied the Misty City would be the legitimate heir to the Orlant Empire.

It’s not that this city was once the capital of the empire, but it was gradually given this meaning during the war between the two countries.

Of course, as the defeated party in the past, the Kingdom of Alduin would naturally not mention this statement.

As the castle was captured, the nobles held a simple dinner, eating and drinking while discussing each family's military achievements.

Basically, it's about how many enemies are killed, how many Meteor Knights and Golden Knights among them, how many people are captured, and so on.

Among them, Roning's performance was the most dazzling.

One person, plus a dragon, killed General Aruba, who had been famous in the Kingdom of Tricia for a long time and became a Knight of the Prideful Sun. In addition, there were two Silver Moon Knights, five Meteors, several Golden Knights, and so on.

In addition, Redal also killed a Sun Knight and three Silver Moon Knights, which can also be counted on Ronin.

In other words, in one battle, Roning killed two enemy Sun Knights, five Silver Moon Knights, and several Meteor and Gold Knights.

Other nobles might exaggerate their achievements, but Ronin’s achievements are real and visible to everyone.

This record was so important that they dared not question it.

"Roning, I guess I should congratulate you in advance!" Broll suddenly laughed.

"What's wrong?" Luo Ning asked with a smile.

Broll said, "At the last ceremony, His Majesty wanted to confer you the title of Duke, but because your military achievements were not enough, they ended up conferring you the title of Marquis."

He paused and looked around at the nobles, and everyone understood.

Ibn smiled and said, "In this battle of Misty City, Ronin, Redar and the dragon played a crucial role. This record is enough to make up for the previous gaps. This time, no one should have any objections, right?"

"Congratulations!"

The nobles and knights rose to their feet, and all offered their congratulations, whether sincerely or in agreement.

Luo Ning couldn't refuse, so he picked up the wine glass and started drinking with everyone.

He hasn't even gotten comfortable in his position as Marquis, and now he's about to become Duke?

Roning will fight with Bruno, but whether he will be made Duke in the end depends on Bruno's opinion.

After all, although the objections of others played a significant role in the last knighthood, the key still lay in Bruno's wishes.
