Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

After a long while, Burkea stood up, took a few steps back, knelt on one knee, and bowed his head, saying, "Legion Commander, please withdraw this order."

"Why?"

Kyle looked at Burkea, his expression unchanged.

Burkea felt his body become heavy and answered through gritted teeth, "I promised General Hurst that I would say a few good words for him in front of you, so I cannot break my promise. I can only beg you to withdraw this order."

Staring into Burkea's eyes, Kyle's expression gradually turned cold, and he said, "Disobeying my orders comes at a price."

Seeing this, Baldwin immediately realized that Burkea had messed up. He came to his side, knelt on one knee, and said, "Legion Commander, Burkea... Burkea..."

"If you want him to pay the price, I hope to share some of it."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Kyle stood up, waved his hand to put the low table back in place, put his hands behind his back, and said in a cold voice, "In my capacity as the Legion Commander of the Twenty-Sixth Legion, I hereby remove you two from your military positions and demote you to ordinary soldiers. Tomorrow, come to guard the gate in front of my camp."

"Yes, Legion Commander."

Hearing this punishment, Burkea felt a sense of relief in his heart and replied with his head lowered.

"Following your orders, Legion Commander," Baldwin said in response.

Seeing this, Kyle waved his hand and teleported the two out of the camp.

Outside the camp, Baldwin looked at the faltering Burkea, quickly helped him up, and walked towards the camp gate.

"Master, don't you have a backup plan?"

Lyanna stood up, came to Kyle, and smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes with her hand.

"I suddenly changed my mind," Kyle said, looking at Lyanna in front of him, reaching out to touch her head, a smile appearing on his face. "The guard unit can be formed at any time, so there's no rush now."

"Now that the atmosphere is here, let's test Burkea's character. If his character is not up to par, then we'll replace him."

In such a large legion, there are naturally more outstanding young people than Burkea. As for why he was singled out, in the Lord's words, it was just a whim.

"Master, if Brother were here, he would definitely exempt the two from punishment directly," Lyanna took a few steps back, looked up at Kyle, and said with a smile.

Kyle nodded upon hearing this, and said with considerable agreement, "That's right, the Lord is kind-hearted and would definitely let the two of them off, and may even entrust them with important tasks, but now the two of them are facing me."

"Master, do you want me to..."

Lyanna approached Kyle and whispered her plan into his ear.

"The idea is good, but doing so can easily backfire. Tomorrow, you arrange a shift for the two of them."

Lyanna's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment upon hearing this, and she then said, "I understand, Master."

"By the way," Kyle said, looking at Lyanna's expression, "Follow the rules. When arranging the two to be on duty, don't be swayed by personal emotions."

"Master, I know. Although that guy named Burkea was very rude to you, I have led troops for a while and know what a qualified general should do and when he shouldn't."

"Well, that's it then. I still have some things to deal with."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kyle's figure disappeared before Lyanna's eyes.

On the other side, after the two left the central camp of the legion together, Burkea looked at Baldwin, who was supporting him, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, after today, you will have to suffer with me."

"It's nothing," Baldwin shook his head and said, "When I left my hometown, my father told me to take good care of you. If I were to watch you being punished, I would have no face to face my father when I return."

"It's all my fault after all!"

"What's done is done. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. But you still need to be more respectful in front of important people and not be too casual."

"I understand, Brother."

"What brother? You haven't married my sister yet, so you can't call me that."

"Okay, Baldwin."

"After returning, are you going to tell Hurst about this?"

"No need," Burkea shook his head and said, "It's useless to say more. This time we helped him, let's just consider it as repaying his kindness for taking us in. There will be no further involvement in the future."

"As you wish."

……

At the Griffin Knight Regiment's garrison, Velen stood with his hands behind his back, inspecting the camp accompanied by Ovia Silverwing, the commander of the First Griffin Knight Regiment.

Unknowingly, the group arrived in front of a small camp.

Thirteen Silver High-Rank Griffin Knights, led by a Gold Low-Rank Griffin Knight, stood side by side with their mounts, waiting for Velen's inspection.

Looking at the fiery red fur of these griffins and the special badges hanging around their necks, he said with a smile, "Commander Ovia, this griffin knight squad is so unique, it must have a distinguished history."

"Reporting to the Marshal, this griffin knight squad comes from the Anthem Griffin Knight Regiment. They were specially dispatched by the Church to the Ninth Corps to serve as instructors for the griffin knight regiment, teaching them how to conduct aerial combat," Ovia Silverwing replied respectfully upon hearing this.

Velen felt a little curious after hearing this. He came to the Gold Low-Rank Griffin Knight and asked, "Knight, state your name."

The Gold Low-Rank Griffin Knight saluted by pounding his chest and reported with his head lowered, "Reporting to the Marshal, my name is Darian, formerly the captain of the Third Squad of the Fifth Battalion of the Anthem Knight Regiment, and now serving as an instructor for the Griffin Knight Force of the Ninth Corps. I specialize in aerial interdiction, intelligence reconnaissance, and peripheral interference in large-scale battles."

Velen immediately became interested and turned to the commander of the First Griffin Knight Regiment, Ovia Silverwing, and asked, "Commander Ovia, I wonder if you could organize a confrontation to open my eyes."

"Marshal, you flatter me, but if you want to watch a confrontation, you still need to give me some time to prepare," Ovia Silverwing replied with his head lowered.

"It's okay, go prepare."

"Your subordinate takes his leave."

Ovia Silverwing gave a respectful salute upon hearing this, and then left this place.

As for the other Soul Intent-level griffin knights, they still stayed by Velen's side, waiting for orders at any time.

"Captain Darian, you come from Anthem Province."

"Yes... yes, Marshal."

Seeing the fleeting look of embarrassment on Darian's face, Velen knew he had said something wrong.

However, since the other party had affirmed his words, there was no need for him to expose himself.

"I have a griffin, I wonder if you can take a look at it for me."

"As you command, your subordinate will definitely complete it with all his strength," Darian replied respectfully.
