In the days of rebirth as a lord

Before Nora confessed, she had imagined many consequences.Perhaps His Highness the Prince will be delighted by the news, and then let her use her ability to help refine iron ore, or His Highness will feel a sense of crisis about her witch status and take precautions against her.However, whether it is a good result or a bad result, it will cause great changes to her life today.However, His Royal Highness said that he had already guessed the truth.

Then, there is no more.No other work was arranged for her, no other orders were given, and nothing seemed to have changed.

"Your Highness, my ability can extract iron ore from ores with very low iron content," Nora couldn't help but said.

Doesn't His Highness need iron to arm the army?

Cecil sighed and explained to Nora: "First of all, how much iron can you extract in a day? Is it enough to make ten arrowheads? Secondly, if you spend all your time refining ore, then your hands Who should do the work now? Whether it is the school, the paper mill, or the many clerical tasks around me, you need to help. If you use your ability to extract iron ore every day, the scarce output cannot change the status quo, but if you Putting down all the work I'm doing right now, I'm going to be overwhelmed in no time."

Nora understood what Cecil meant.Once, the witch's ability she awakened caused her life to fall from the sky to the abyss.But at the same time, she also felt that she was special because she possessed extraordinary powers. Otherwise, why would others not have magical abilities, but she had them?She didn't know whether to be proud of this ability or resent it for ruining her life.However, now His Highness told her that her own talent is worth more than the extraordinary power she possesses!This untied Nora's knot that had troubled her for many years.

"I understand Your Highness. I'm sorry that I have delayed some work these two days due to my own reasons. I will make up for it as soon as possible." Nora said after finishing her mood.

She has turned back into the neither humble nor overbearing, talented, and trustworthy housekeeper.

Cecil didn't blame anything, but said: "It's very hard to keep working all the time. If necessary, let yourself rest for two days, which can improve your work efficiency. I didn't mention this before because of the lack of manpower. Now you Many of the students here can help out, and you can also arrange some rest time for yourself."

Now there is no concept of weekends and holidays, no matter what the position is, the default is open all year round.Cecil said that he can't bear this state, and the concept of vacation should be subtly implanted in everyone's cognition.

The weather was getting colder, and the castle's fireplace began to light up. On this day, Cecil suddenly remembered that it had been a whole year since he came to this world!

One year is not a very long time, but he seems to have gradually integrated into this world, and his life in the previous life really seems like a lifetime in retrospect.Occasionally, he still thinks of Papa Ye, and the merit value is enough for him to contact Papa Ye once, but Cecil has been hesitant to make such a contact.

He lives in this world, and it is almost impossible for him to go back. If he contacts Papa Ye, it will only give him a faint hope... "Your Highness? Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?" Mu Ziyu asked. The sound awakened Cecil who was distracted.

"Ah? What did you just say... oh! The plan to dispatch troops? I have no objection to this. You are solely responsible for it. If you need my cooperation, just say it. The first time I initiate a battle, I will definitely not give it to you." It's a drag." Cecil tried to get back to the topic after recovering.

Mu Ziyu didn't answer, but stretched out his hand to touch Cecil's forehead, and then asked with some concern: "Your Highness has been absent-minded recently. Is it because you are not feeling well or something is on your mind? If His Highness has anything to do, the time for dispatching troops can continue." Postpone it for a few days, after all, nothing is as important as His Highness."

After returning from Sauter City, Mu Ziyu did not continue to live in Cecil's room, and Cecil also subconsciously avoided Mu Ziyu.The act of poking their foreheads this time was the first skin-to-skin contact between the two of them after they came back.

It was such a small contact that already made Cecil's heart beat a little faster.He tilted his head to avoid Muziyu's fiery gaze, and said dryly: "I'm fine, there's no need to postpone the dispatch of troops, after all, one day will be closer to the snow season, and I plan to Completely take over the management of the two villages under the name of Baron Price."

Cecil's evasive action made Mu Ziyu's expression dark for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will entrust the village under Baron Price's name to you soon."

"Well, of course I believe you are fine. But... even if you really can't win, don't let yourself get hurt." At the end, Cecil still ordered.

Mu Ziyu looked slightly warm: "I will definitely not let myself get hurt. There are very few people who can hurt me now. But Your Highness, will there be rewards after winning the war?" "Of course, all soldiers and generals who participated in the war There will be rewards, land, food, honor and even money. Do you want anything?" Cecil asked.

"Well, I do have something I want, but I'm afraid His Highness won't..." "You are the one who has contributed the most. As long as I can afford it, I will definitely not be stingy." Cecil promised.

Mu Ziyu smiled slightly: "Then I will write it down, don't worry, Your Highness will certainly be able to afford the reward I want."

When Mu Ziyu left, Cecil lay on the table and covered his face with his hands, feeling extremely embarrassed.This Muziyu, wouldn't that be the reward he wanted?If so, isn't it too unreserved to just agree to it?But it might not be, maybe it's because I'm being passionate... Emotional matters are really too difficult!

In any case, Muziyu's team to conquer Baron Price finally set off.Before leaving, except for the soldiers who participated in the battle and a few people in charge of the village, the ordinary villagers had no idea what the army was going to do.Most of them are guessing, are they hunting again?Just like last year, the wild animals around the village were hunted and driven away before the snow season. In the next year, the village would not have to worry about being attacked by wild animals.

The army moved much faster than the caravan, and it took just over a day to reach the village where Baron Price's castle was located.In order to be safe, Mu Ziyu waited until night before ordering the attack.The topography and building layout of the village have long been known through the caravan. In addition, most people in this world are invisible at night, even if there is moonlight in the sky.

His Highness said that this kind of situation is caused by night blindness, and it would be better to eat more eggs or meat.The soldiers of the patrol army had good food, and the symptoms of night blindness were basically improved, but this was not the case in the Baron Fort. After all, apart from His Highness, who would be so generous to ordinary soldiers?In the baron castle, it is estimated that except for a few high-ranking knights, everyone else is no different from a blind man at night.

The fact is just as Mu Ziyu thought, when they attacked at night, even though the moonlight was bright, many people in Baron Fort were blinded.Even if someone saw them, it wouldn't help at all.Those who didn't want to die lay down on the ground obediently as captives, and those who wanted to resist were splashed with blood on the spot.

Under the protection of the castle's knights, Baron Price mounted his horse in a panic and wanted to escape, but was soon overtaken by Mu Ziyu single-handedly.It was impossible for Mu Ziyu to let Pulis escape, otherwise it would bring a lot of unnecessary trouble to His Royal Highness.

"Lord Baron, give up running away, Your Highness will give you a chance to survive, if you continue running away, I will attack!" Mu Ziyu shouted loudly after catching up.

Seeing that Mu Ziyu was the only one catching up with Pulis and his party, they felt hopeful.

"He's alone! Let's kill him together!" Baron Price ordered directly, not planning to escape.

The knights around him didn't hesitate, except for one who was protecting Pulis, the others all raised their swords and slashed at Mu Ziyu.They felt that it was impossible for a few well-trained knights to lose against an enemy who was born as a slave.

Mu Ziyu did not evade the battle, he drew the sword His Highness gave him from its sheath, and then there was a flash of cold light, and all the knights attacking him passed by him.The next moment, those knights were splashed with blood, fell off their horses, and lost their breath of life.

Everything happened so fast that Baron Price, who thought it was safe, was stunned by this reversal, and when Mu Ziyu slowly approached him with a sword, Baron Price immediately turned around and ran away: "How is it possible. ...the devil! You must be the devil!"

The only remaining knight was truly loyal to the baron. Even though he knew he would die, he bravely rushed towards Mu Ziyu, just to block Mu Ziyu for a moment and buy Pulis some time to escape.However, he also became a dead soul under the sword in an instant.

Mu Ziyu didn't chase after Pulis in a hurry, but took off the bow and arrow on his back, nocked the arrow, drew the bow, and shot—he was better at bow and arrow than sword.

Because he deliberately avoided the critical point, Baron Price, who was hit by the arrow, did not die immediately, but fell from his horse.These aliens have really mastered the devil's weapon!Baron Price looked at the arrow passing through his shoulder blade and thought in despair.

Mu Ziyu approached unhurriedly, and Baron Pulis begged for mercy in a panic: "I surrender, I will not run away, I am willing to be a prisoner of His Royal Highness...don't kill me..."" Does Your Highness look good?" Mu Ziyu asked abruptly.

"What?" Baron Price didn't understand the meaning of these words for a while.

But Mu Ziyu didn't want his answer. The next moment, the cold light of the sharp sword deprived Baron Price of his last life.

Looking at the breathless corpse of Baron Price, Mu Ziyu slowly added: "It's not something you should look at, let alone covet it, otherwise you will only end up dead."
