Marshall Harry's Harry Knight Domain was located 300 miles west of the Knight of Bennett's domain. There was a lord's domain between the Harry Knight Domain and the Knight of Bennett Domain. If it weren't for the lord's domain, the distance between the two domains would be less than 6 hours.
Although the Knight of Bennett was a knight with a domain and was considered a noble, to a real nobleman, a knight was just a quasi-noble. Also, the Knight of Bennett wasn't good at socializing with other nobles, so he could only maintain a polite distance with the nobles around him. He would rather take a long detour than ask a lord to let his army pass through his domain.
At around 3 pm, the army arrived at the Harry Knight Domain. From afar, they could see 2 red tapestries hanging on the walls of the castle. They were as tall as the city walls, and there was a white unicorn roaring in the air. It was Marshall Harry's coat of arms.
Abel saw the expression on the Knight of Bennett's face. It seemed like he was irritated by the huge coat of arms in front of him. As far as Abel knew, the coat of arms on the wall of the Bennett Castle was only 3 meters tall and 2 meters wide. Even that was half done by the previous lord. The Knight of Bennett gritted his teeth and took out a large amount of gold coins to make it. It was the pride of the Knight of Bennett. He always said it was a treasure for the future generations.
"This guy must have done it on purpose. I've already told him about the coat of arms." The Knight of Bennett gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence.
Abel saw the Knight of Bennett's expression and quietly slowed down the speed of the horse. He wanted to get as far away from the Knight of Bennett as possible.
At the gate of the Harry Castle, a 40 year old Knight in full golden armor stood in the middle. There were 2 rows of guards in full leather armor holding long swords on both sides. The left chest of the Knight's golden armor was engraved with the pattern of the sun god, and the right chest was engraved with a shield of a white unicorn on a red background. Together with the Knight's tall stature and the mature look on his face, he looked very handsome.
"Marshall."
The Knight of Bennett screamed as he jumped down from his horse. Combat qi surged from his body. He was like a tiger ready to devour its prey. He strode towards the Knight of Marshall. Every step he took made a loud noise on the ground.
"Ceci."
The Knight of Marshall was shocked as well. His original elegance was gone. His golden hair was floating in the air with his combat qi as he charged towards the Knight of Bennett like a lion.
..... Wasn't the Knight of Bennett the Knight of Bennett? Why did they start fighting as soon as they saw each other?
The Knight of Bennett and the Knight of Marshall of Bennett got closer and closer. Even when they were close enough to punch each other, they didn't stop. The two jumped up and collided in the air. They didn't use their fists or feet. They only used their chests to hit each other in the air. To Abel, it sounded like 2 cars at full speed crashing into each other.
The two fell from the air and each took 10 steps back. The Knight of Bennett, who was trying to stabilize himself, yelled, "Why didn't you say you were an intermediate Knight in your letter?"
On the other side, the Knight of Marshall of Bennett looked at his golden armor in pain. He touched it and yelled back, "You didn't say you were an intermediate Knight either."
The Knight of Bennett looked at the dent on his armor and calculated how many gold coins it would take to fix it. The number made him yell, "You tricked me. If I wasn't an intermediate Knight, I would be lying on the ground right now."
"Same here, same here."
The Knight of Bennett and the Knight of Marshall of Bennett stared at each other. Just when everyone thought they were going to fight again, the two laughed and hugged each other. They patted each other's armor and made a sound like they were forging iron.
The noble etiquette of the Knight of Bennett and the cool demeanor of the Knight of Marshall of Bennett were all gone. All that was left was the excitement of brothers meeting and hugging each other.
Abel looked enviously at these two old friends who were as close as brothers. For someone like him who had secrets, it was too hard to find a friend like this who could confide in his heart.
The adoption ceremony was very formal. The priest of the Goddess of Harvest temple was invited from Harvest City. The Knight of Bennett handed Abel to the Knight of Marshall. The Knight of Marshall personally put a white unicorn coat on Abel's body and completed the adoption ceremony.
After the ceremony, Harry's castle held a ball to celebrate the arrival of an heir. Harry's castle would be passed down from generation to generation.
In the duchy, if a lord had no heirs and no confirmed heir, the fief would be taken over by the state if the lord passed away. The people who relied on the fief for a living had just lost their support, so having a new heir was a big deal for a territory without heirs.
The Knight of Bennett did not attend the ball. Instead, he led the team back to his castle after the ceremony. It was impossible to ask the Knight of Bennett to attend a ball to celebrate his son's adoption, so the Knight of Marshall of Bennett didn't ask him to stay.
The Knight of Marshall brought Abel to a two-story building on the left side of the castle. He gently pushed open the door of the building and pulled Abel in in a very friendly manner. He said with enthusiasm, "Abel, this will be your room from now on. I hope you can feel at ease here."
The first floor was very big. The floor was made of solid stone. On one side, there was a table for receiving guests and a few high back chairs. The rest of the place was empty. There was a weapon rack against the wall. There were big swords, shields, bows, long spears, and even a giant axe used by the orcs.
Instead of a living room, it was more like a small practice room. It also met the requirements of a trainee Knight. A trainee Knight needed to spend a lot of time practicing, so this room was very convenient for Abel's practice. This meant that the Knight of Marshall had put a lot of thought into the layout of the hall.
The bedroom was on the second floor. As soon as Abel came to the second floor, he saw a big feather bed that he wanted to lie down on. The white sheets made him a little reluctant to touch it. The glazed white oak walls and the same white wool carpet made the room look elegant and holy. Through the tall floor-to-ceiling windows, Abel could see the scenery outside the castle.
It was obvious that the Knight of Marshall liked white very much because of the white unicorn on the coat of arms. Everything on the second floor was white, even the biggest wardrobe was made of white oak.
"I've asked someone to prepare your clothes." The Knight of Marshall opened the wardrobe. It was full of all kinds of clothes. He then said, "There's still some time before the ball. Take a bath and take a rest. Later, a maid will come to remind you and help you change into the dress for the ball."
The Knight of Marshall nodded to Abel with a sunny smile. Abel felt a burst of warmth in his heart. Before he went downstairs, he asked, "Is there anything else you need? You're welcome. This will be your home from now on. "
"No, that's all. You've arranged everything well enough." The Knight of Marshall's kindness and care for Abel made Abel feel a little overwhelmed, but he knew that everything the Knight of Marshall did was to make him accept this home.
After the Knight of Marshall left, Abel stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the bedroom on the second floor and looked at the night scenery outside. The lights in the distance were moving. Those were the carriages of the guests who were coming to the ball. This place was very close to the big city of Harvest City, and the size of Harvest City was far beyond the small town of Fort Lee.
This was going to be his home from now on. After coming to this world, he had just accepted his parents and brother as his new identity, and now he had to come to a new family and accept a new life. Shaking his head, Abel sighed. The mature mind was not what it looked like. He was thinking about his future growth. When he was strong in the future, he would be able to help his parents.
A series of footsteps came from the side of the stairs, and then the door of the bedroom was opened. A round-faced maid of about 20 years old quietly walked in and respectfully asked Abel, "Your bath is ready. Are you ready now?"
Under the maid's guidance, Abel came to the master's bathroom in the castle. The wooden bathroom exuded the unique fragrance of wood. The marble bathtub was full of hot water, and there were some dried flower petals in the bathtub, which made the water more fragrant.
When Abel walked into the bathroom, the maid was about to follow, but he stopped her. As a person who had received a modern education, he was not used to having a maid help him take a bath.
