The Knight's Journey to the Empire

The largest town in the territory of Miparis is Xiaohe Town, a town with a population of about three thousand.

This town is much more developed than Flanders.

As far as business is concerned, it is not very prosperous, but it is also full of variety, with distribution in all walks of life.

Unlike the town of Flanders in White Bear Territory, there is not even a decent ordinary hotel.

After Soran arrived at Miparis with his knight guards, he first came to this small river town.

After arranging the knight's guards in the inn here and changing into decent aristocratic dresses, he took Doug Johnson and gifts to the family estate of Viscount Ayudukai.

Viscount Ayudukai's family residence is not in Xiaohe Town, but in a mountain manor two kilometers away from Xiaohe Town.

There is also an exquisite small castle in this mountain manor.

This castle actually has some history, and its existence may be even longer than the history of the Miparis family.

When the Miparis family was granted this territory, they renovated the abandoned castle and enclosed a large piece of land around it.

This formed the family estate that was passed down from generation to generation by the Mipolis family.

On the way to the manor, Soran met a noble who was also invited to attend the coming-of-age ball.

You can't say they are aristocrats!

Because his title was just that of a manor knight.

This manor knight is also a canonized knight from the Count of Katis's family, and his knight manor is located to the east of Miparis Territory.

Because it is adjacent to the Territory of Miparis and both are vassals of the Earl of Katis's family, they were also invited.

The full name of this manor knight is Gorgon Canady.

Soran chatted with him for a while and felt that he had a good impression of him as a person with similar interests!

So I just went along with it.

..............................

Viscount Ayudukai's family estate is indeed quite large.

Looking from a distance, you can see the foothills not far away, with houses and ancient trees interspersed.

And a white castle, looming in the diffuse mist, stands in the middle.

If the Lonely Mountain Castle of the Marquis Saladin family in the west gives people a feeling of being heavy and majestic, like an old man with vicissitudes of life, it is full of a sense of history!

This small castle gives people the feeling of being exquisite and compact, like a bright and beautiful beauty, full of youth and vitality!

Sauron and his companions rode to the gate of the manor, and servants immediately came running over, took their horses and led them to the stable to take care of them.

At the same time, servants respectfully led them into a carriage.

The carriage moved forward steadily on the road, and there were all kinds of flowers, green plants, trees, and grass on the roadside, distributed in an orderly manner.

The carriage was going uphill all the way and was not running very fast!

But it took a full seven or eight minutes before they reached the main gate of the small castle.

As soon as Sauron and his companions got off the carriage, someone came out to greet them!

Of course, the master greets the guests and the servant greets the subordinates.

Because at a dance like this, subordinates and servants brought by the guests are generally not allowed to attend.

In order to take good care of them, the host usually sets up some banquets in the small courtyard next door and entertains them with delicious food and drinks.

A young man came towards Soran and the other man, and when he got closer, he greeted them: "Hello, Uncle Gogos! Thank you for coming to my sister's coming-of-age ceremony and witnessing her growth!"

"Joseph, you're welcome! I haven't seen your sister for a long time! I didn't expect she has grown up so quickly!" Knight Gogos responded politely.

"Uncle Gogos, who is this?" The man named Joseph looked at Soran and asked puzzledly.

"Joseph, this is the Lord of White Bear Territory, Baron Soren Lipton!" Knight Gogos introduced the two to each other enthusiastically: "Baron Soren, this is Viscount Ayudukai's eldest son, Joseph!"

"Hello, Baron Soran! Nice to meet you!" Joseph greeted Soran respectfully.

At the same time, he performed a courtesy suitable for a noble meeting towards Soran.

"Hello, Master Joseph! I am also very happy to meet you!" Soran replied politely and returned the greeting.

"Baron Soran went deep behind enemy lines during the Western War, captured the eldest son of the Principality of Glia, and saved the kingdom from danger! Your reputation has long spread throughout the Kingdom of Midburg, and I have also heard of it a long time ago! After seeing you today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved!" Joseph spoke softly and complimented Soran.

“No! No! It’s just some false reputation! It’s all thanks to the good command of His Royal Highness the Second Prince! Otherwise, I might not be able to achieve such a great achievement!” Sauron said in a very humble tone.

In the West, this was something that both sides agreed on, and this matter was led by His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

Therefore, Sauron had to keep his words consistent, highlighting the role of the Second Prince, while not taking too much credit for himself.

Otherwise, it is easy to cause yourself some unnecessary trouble!

"Baron Sauron is too modest! Your contribution is also not small!" Joseph smiled and continued to compliment.

“Hahahaha! I think Young Master Joseph is also a handsome man with high spirits. In the future, he will definitely make great contributions to the country, strengthen his family, and bring honor to his ancestors!” Sauron also praised him.

Who doesn't know how to flatter?

"Okay! Thank you Baron Soran for your kind words!" Joseph agreed and then said, "Please come in, both of you!"

"I still need to entertain other guests here, so I won't follow you in! Please do as you please! If you have any questions, you can ask the servants!"

"it is good!"

Then the Knight of Gogoth led Soran into the castle.

Seeing the two figures gradually disappear in the crowd, Master Joseph called his personal valet and whispered in his ear: "Go tell my father that Baron Soran has arrived! From the initial contact, he is not the kind of reckless man who only knows how to fight and kill. He can be one of the backup candidates!"

"Yes!" The valet took the order and left.

Joseph continued to stay where he was and receive other guests.
