Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Under Kayle's amiable interaction, Burkea's unrestrained mentality took the upper hand, and he lost his previous respectful demeanor.

Liana, sitting on the left side of the low table, looked at this rude person with anger in her eyes, but seeing her master signaling her to be quiet, she had to suppress her anger.

Gradually, Kayle began to discuss serious matters.

"Burkea, what do you think of Gadonff of the Twenty-Sixth Legion?" Kayle asked, gently tapping the table.

Burkea, who was drinking tea, slowly put down his teacup upon hearing this. Even if he wasn't very sensitive to some things, he now knew that the Marshal had some thoughts about the Twenty-Sixth Legion, but he didn't know if they were good or bad.

"Legion Commander, I have only seen Legion Commander Gadonff of the Twenty-Sixth Legion a few times from a distance, but my friend has a detailed understanding of him."

"You're talking about that Gold-tier warrior outside the camp."

"Yes, Legion Commander," Burkea replied.

Upon hearing this, Kayle issued an order to the two Sword Dancers outside the camp: "Let the Gold-tier warrior who came with Burkea come in."

"Yes."

The two Sword Dancers heard the voice of their master's master in their ears and immediately responded.

Before long, Bowen, who had tidied himself up a bit, entered the camp and saw Burkea sitting opposite the Legion Commander, completely without any respectful behavior.

Suppressing the urge to reprimand him, Bowen came to the camp, knelt on one knee, and respectfully said, "Bowen, Logistics Officer of the Ninth Battalion of the Third Regiment, greets the Legion Commander."

"Please rise."

Feeling a gentle force, Bowen stood up and stood respectfully to the side, waiting for questions.

"General Bowen, I heard from Burkea that you have a relatively detailed understanding of Legion Commander Gadonff of the Twenty-Sixth Legion. Is this true?"

Hearing Kayle's words, Bowen's heart immediately sounded an alarm, but on the surface, he still maintained a respectful appearance and replied, "Legion Commander, I have specifically learned about Legion Commander Gadonff's character and personality some time ago. I don't know what you want to know."

"Gadonff, born in 9516 of the Radiant Era in a commoner family in a small town within Rockfall County, Zelin Province…"

"…Currently serving as the Commander of the Temple Knight Order of the Dawn Church in Redmoon Province, and also the Deputy Speaker of the Provincial Council of Zelin Province, while most of the soldiers in the Twenty-Sixth Legion are from these two provinces."

"This person is good at defensive warfare, not good at active offense, values military discipline very much, is taciturn, doesn't like subordinates to build relationships, and even more dislikes anyone who goes against his ideas."

Kayle gently tapped the table, looked at Bowen, who was slightly uneasy, and slowly said, "This is the information recorded in the origin documents."

"Now, I want to know if there are any discrepancies here."

At this moment, Burkea put away his unrestrained appearance and sat upright.

Standing to the side, Bowen couldn't help but sweat on his forehead upon hearing the Legion Commander's question.

He was sure that he had been dragged into a high-level struggle.

"These words come from your mouth and enter my ears."

"Once out of this camp, it will have nothing to do with you. This is my promise."

Hearing the Legion Commander's promise, Bowen secretly glanced at Burkea and began to organize his words in his heart.

Feeling the gaze of his friend and future brother-in-law, Burkea also knew that he had said the wrong thing and lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at Bowen.

Seeing this, Kayle was not in a hurry and asked Liana to pour a cup of tea for Bowen, while signaling him to sit down and think slowly, without rushing.

Seeing this situation, Bowen didn't have Burkea's carefree attitude. He respectfully took the teacup from the blue-haired woman and still stood to the side, not daring to sit down.

After a moment, Bowen returned the teacup to the low table and said, "Legion Commander, to be honest, I was being ostracized in the Twenty-Fifth Legion at the time, so I had the idea of transferring to another legion."

"The Twenty-Seventh Legion is a standing army of the Church and cannot absorb outsiders. Even in times of war, their soldiers will only be directly supplemented by the Church."

"As for other special forces, Burkea and I are both warriors, and there is no possibility of joining them."

"Finally, there was only the Twenty-Sixth Legion left."

"In the beginning, I looked for several battalion-level officers of the Twenty-Sixth Legion, wanting to find out information about Legion Commander Gadonff from them, but every time we talked about the critical moment, they would always shut up."

"Once, by chance, I got a battalion-level officer drunk and learned some secret information from him."

Seeing this, Kayle put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Bowen, waiting for his explanation.

"That battalion-level officer said: 'The Legion Commander has ordered that all generals and officers be investigated. Those with bad deeds, those without rules, those who do not seek progress, those who flatter superiors and deceive subordinates, anyone who meets one of these criteria is not allowed to serve as a military officer, and must take the lead in battle during wartime.'"

Hearing this, Kayle couldn't help but look at the young man sitting in front of him. According to that Legion Commander Gadonff's requirements, this young man was afraid that he would have to go to the front line as a high-ranking cannon fodder.

Being stared at by the Legion Commander, Burkea rarely showed an embarrassed expression.

In this matter, he had dragged Bowen down.

"This matter ends here."

"Yes, Legion Commander."

Burkea and Bowen replied in unison.

"Now, let's talk about the matters concerning the two of you."

After saying this, Kayle waved his hand to move the teacups to the side of the low table and took out a letter of appointment, placing it in the center of the low table.

Seeing this, Burkea looked over with curious eyes, only to see that the letter of appointment read: "By order of Verin Ekes, Marshal of the Ninth Army, Hearst Rocken is removed from the position of Battalion Commander of the Ninth Battalion of the Third Regiment of the Twenty-Sixth Legion, and handed over to Leonas, Deputy Marshal of the Ninth Army, for review. If innocent, he will be released back to his original hometown. If guilty, he will be punished to serve as a Deputy Battalion Commander in the Penal Legion."

"Upon the recommendation of Kayle, Legion Commander of the Twenty-Sixth Legion, Burkea is appointed to replace him as the Battalion Commander of the Ninth Battalion of the Third Regiment of the Twenty-Sixth Legion."

"This order will take effect from the date of issuance."

Seeing the information above, Burkea couldn't help but swallow.

Bowen, standing to the side, was no better, and the shock on his face was undisguised.

Perhaps for those in power, this was just a casual act, but for them, it was a tsunami no less than destroying a kingdom.

"If you accept this order, you will be watched by the entire army, and if there are no accidents, you will also incur the dislike of that Legion Commander Gadonff," Kayle said with a smile, looking at the two who were in a daze.

Hearing this, the greed in Burkea's heart gradually dissipated, and reason gradually returned.

If he accepted this appointment, he would be labeled as a direct descendant of the Army Marshal. With the backing of the Everlight Knights, the Church would cast more attention on him, but this would violate his promise.

Between faith and future, Burkea rarely fell into confusion.
