I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

"Father, I will put on the armor for you myself tomorrow."

"it is good."

The lord laughed even more happily. He knew that what Aimee wanted was to be armored in public, and the transfer of power must be done in the light of day.

Without fatherly love and daughterly filial piety, suspicion and betrayal are the survival rules of the nobility.

But that's not enough, Aimee, it's okay, your mother will teach you.

The lord patted Aimee on the shoulder.

"You can go now, I will arrange everything."

Aimee nodded and left with Bennett on her back. Bennett was still confused. What happened? How did Aimee suddenly become a count?

Aimee held the ring tightly in her hand all the way and said, "Bennett, let Sera stay with us during this evacuation."

"Oh, why?"

Bennett was confused again. What did this mean?

Aimee does not have absolute strength, so the person who controls the military power must be someone she trusts. Sera is the best choice, provided that Bennett is used well.

"Let her take care of you. I have a child and I can't carry you on my back every day."

This child came at the right time.

After breaking up with Mervyn, Bennett now only wants to be with Aimee. He will never let Mervyn's tragedy happen again.

"No, maids..."

"It's decided. I'll have someone notify Sera later."

"No, Aimee, I..."

"Bennett!!!" A proud shout interrupted more than just the unfinished words.

"Bennett, I need Sierra, I need someone to take charge of the army."

Looking at the blood on Aimee's lips, Bennett felt heartbroken.

"Even if this weren't the case, Sera wouldn't have betrayed us."

"I can't bet, Bennett. I'm not in a position to bet."

Yes, the girl has no money to gamble.

"Bennett, please."

"Oh, all right."

The sky fell into darkness again. Bennett did not return to the barracks, but asked his servants and Sera to report that he was safe.

……

The next morning, Aimee put on the armor she hadn't worn for a long time, with a red cloak with a giant wolf pattern on her back, and followed the lord in black armor. She didn't really wear armor, but hung a cloak for the lord, which was to announce Aimee's status.

Travelers along the way have made preparations. Last night, the lord asked the soldiers to make a notice to the entire territory.

What is love? People on the street came to watch the ceremony of transfer of power. When the lord passed by them, they knelt on one knee to salute.

The lord waved to the passers-by while holding his helmet, a relaxed and loving smile on his face, his gray hair shining in the sun, his mission was about to be accomplished.

Aimee followed the lord, and the people stood up after she passed.

Kent also came. He touched his chest and luggage at the back of the crowd. The lord nodded to him, and when Aimee passed by, Kent knelt on one knee.

Bennett sat in the carriage and looked at his father. After receiving a smile, he lowered the curtain of the small window.

In the center of the square, all the Saber Knights gathered around the small platform and took off their helmets.

Duke looked at the lord seriously. He was a traditional knight, born a commoner. After swearing allegiance to the lord, he would not have any other thoughts. The lord's will was his direction.

Sera looked at Aimee behind the lord. Duke's words came true. She was notified last night that she would be in charge of the army and take care of Bennett during the evacuation period. The signal was sent thoroughly and the meaning was expressed clearly.

Kenny lowered his head. He didn't want to watch this scene. He would not swear allegiance soon. He wanted to conquer his own territory.

Brent looked at Aimee, who was just an extraordinary knight, thoughtfully. He was the third knight of the territory. He was not the first to follow the lord. He came after the lord obtained the territory. Glory was not what he sought, but money and status.

Behind them were their respective teams. The one behind Sera was the largest, with 15 armed men and 300 extraordinary ones, and the rest were evenly divided among the other teams.

The lord and Aimee walked to the center. Aimee took the golden cloak from the servant. There was no giant wolf pattern on the cloak. It only represented the honor of a knight.

The lord turned around, and after Aimee helped him put on his cloak, the lord looked around at everyone and said the first words of today's ceremony:

"Take your chivalric oath."

Knights:

"Humility, integrity, mercy, bravery, justice, sacrifice, honor, soul!

Facing a powerful enemy, we should not be afraid;

Courageous and loyal, worthy of the gods;

Loyal and upright, would rather die than yield;

Protecting the weak is not against the laws of nature!

I vow to stand up to violence;

I vow to fight against all wrong;

I pledged to fight for the defenseless;

I vow to help anyone who asks me for help;

I swore not to hurt any woman;

I swore to help my brother knight;

I vow to be true to my friends;

I swear to be faithful to my love till death!"

The scene was silent. This moment was sacred and solemn. Although not many people worked hard for this oath, it was indeed the highest pursuit of chivalry.

Everyone read the oath except Kenny. Kenny never thought of himself as a knight. He was a nobleman and knights were just soldiers.

Aimee stepped forward, looked around at everyone, and said, "Pledge allegiance to your lord."

Knights: "I swear allegiance to Aimee Stark. I will march wherever your sword points."

Kenny and Brent did not declare a vow. One of them wanted to go out and explore the world, while the other had his own crooked ideas.

Aimee ignored the two of them. Now she was about to announce her first order after taking office:

"Knight Duke, please bring everyone from the Red Pavilion."

"Yes!"

The Red Pavilion, they are responsible for carrying out the Rose Family’s anti-human activities in other territories.

This was a gift from the old lord to the new lord, and Aimee realized it the moment she took over the territory.

Under the expectant gaze of his subjects, Duke brought this group of warmongers to the square.

"In the name of Aimee Stark, in the honor of the Great Wolf, in accordance with the laws of Razlan, under the glory of the two gods, and in the eyes of the people, I declare that anyone involved in the Red Pavilion is guilty and shall be beheaded immediately."

This first knife won the hearts of all the people.

"Aimee Stark!!!"

A deafening shout was heard, and they raised their hats, loudly celebrating the fall of the Hong Kong Coliseum.

With the will of the people, Aimee finally completed the ceremony at this moment.

The lord looked at Aimee, whose face was calm, with a stitched wound still on her lips, and a ray of golden light falling from her body amid the cheers of the crowd. He knew that he had made the right choice.

The new lord, Aimee, began her migration mobilization:

"My fellow citizens, the orcs are about to invade our territory. We cannot win this battle. You will not leave the protection of the giant wolf. The Northern Grand Guild will take us in temporarily. One day, we will return to this land and build our home again."

"Obey the orders of the giant wolf." The knights spoke first.

Then the leaders shouted: "Follow the command of the giant wolf."

"I need the knights to stay with me and cover our retreat."

Aimee looked into the lord's green eyes and understood what he meant.

"Kenny, Brant, and Duke's knights step out."

Aimee doesn't trust this group of people.

"Duke's troops are no longer needed. Kenny and Brant's troops will stay to cover the people and the army."

Lord: Duke can be trusted.

Aimee glanced at Duke. He had pale hair and a face full of wrinkles. Only his eyes were bright, but they were also a little cloudy.

He is just a local kid, he can't cause any trouble. Aimee narrowed her eyes, nodded to Duke, and said to the lord:

"can."

Kenny and Brant's military power was taken away.

In this way, with the army leading the way and the people following behind with food and fodder, everyone began their long migration.
