Knight Hoover was a little surprised. The knight sword he was holding was a magic knight sword made by Abel himself. Its attributes were already very good. Now that Abel had given him a knight sword, it was obvious that this one was even better than the one he had before.
As a Knight Captain, his love for weapons was more than anything else. A good weapon was another life for a Knight.
He had been holding a knight's big sword all his life, and after holding this knight's big sword, his face was full of curiosity. From what he could sense, this knight's big sword didn't seem too special. It didn't even seem to be a magic knight's big sword.
This was Abel's newest creation, and his trust in Abel had exceeded his own perception.
"Guru Abel, I will protect the Duchy of Carmel with this sword you have given me!" Said Captain Hoover with a bow as he held the sword with both hands.
After sending off the heads of the big families and Captain Knight Hoover, Abel could finally relax. With the support of these people, the Duchy of Carmel would not be in chaos.
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask you!" Burbridge had been standing by the side the whole time. He only stepped forward and bowed after everyone had left.
Abel took a sip of his juice and waved his hand, "What do you want to say? Say it!"
"Your Majesty, since you have just been appointed, everything in the royal palace needs to be rearranged according to your preferences. The tailors, grooms, chefs, servants, and guards all need to be approved by you!" Said Steward Burbage.
Abel didn't care much about the palace. He didn't care about the luxurious decorations, nor was he interested in the fancy robes. No matter how good the food was, it couldn't be compared to the chefs he had trained. As for the guards, they were a joke.
No matter how strong the guards were, they couldn't be compared to wizards. Therefore, they could only protect the palace from being stolen. These guards didn't need to be strong, as long as they were loyal.
"Steward Burbage, although I have become the king, Family Harry of Harvest City is not a big noble. The steward in my family is not qualified to be the steward of the palace. Therefore, I hope you can serve me. Of course, I will protect you and your family!" Abel said in a deep voice as he looked at Steward Burbage.
"Your Majesty, I, Burbage, swear to serve Family Harry of Harvest City forever!" Steward Burbage said with excitement as he bowed.
"I accept your loyalty, Burbage!" Abel said with a smile as he made a hand gesture.
Burbage's steward straightened up................... as long as the guards are loyal............................................
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Steward Burbridge replied with a bow.
"You don't need to change the layout of the palace!" Abel said. Then he remembered the countless art pieces in Lut Gholein. It would be a waste to leave them in the middle of nowhere, so he continued, "I'll bring some art pieces. You can arrange them in the palace."
Burbridge suggested, "Yes, your Majesty. Your title ceremony is too simple. Although there isn't a ceremony, you should still use a banquet to get to know the nobles of Bakong City and welcome your friends who are here to congratulate you!"
"How much time do you need for a banquet? I'll let the chefs in my castle train the chefs in the palace. You can prepare the red wine for me, and I'll prepare the hard liquor myself!" Abel said in a soft voice.
"The food in Harry Castle is a legend in the human world. It's great that you can arrange it like this!" Burbage's steward said with a smile. He then added, "It will take 20 days to prepare a banquet. Is that enough time?"
"Ok, let's do that. 20 days is just enough for me to get someone to set up the teleportation circle!" Abel nodded with a smile.
"Your Majesty, the palace treasury has been locked up ever since the George family was exiled. You can take it when you have the time!" Burbage's steward reminded.
"Palace treasury?" Abel was taken aback. He suddenly remembered that the duchy of Carmel was not replaced by a war. The Wizard Union forcefully exiled the royal family. Therefore, the entire palace and all of the properties of the royal family were left intact. Nothing was missing.
"Take me to see it!" Abel was suddenly interested. What kind of good stuff would be in the treasury of a duchy that had been passed down for generations? It made him want to go treasure hunting.
Burbage's steward smiled and bowed as he led the way. He was in a very good mood. First of all, his status had been confirmed, and second of all, he realized that this legendary Guru Abel was very easy to get along with.
Especially when he heard about the palace treasury. There was no pretense, no greed, just excitement like a child hearing about a new toy. It was only at times like this that Burbage's steward realized this king was only in his teens.
At that moment, there were already patrolling Knights in the palace. They were all official knights. It was obvious that this was the arrangement of Head Knight Hoover.
If a new king did not have a powerful force to suppress them, it was inevitable that some people would have some dirty thoughts. It was hard to guard against petty thieves.
"The prestigious Majesty!" Along the way, all the Knights they saw bowed to Abel with the knight's salute. The powerful king made the Knights feel proud.
They went through a tunnel to the underground part of the palace. Some servants had already lit up the candles beforehand, so the underground building finally had some light.
Abel already knew about the 'poverty' of the Duchy of Carmel. Even Yveline's magic tower did not have many illumination circles, let alone a palace in the common world.
However, he was already thinking about changing the illumination circles in the palace. Normal nobles and beginner wizards could not afford to buy illumination circles, but for him, it was not a problem at all.
As he walked, he thought about how to change this place. This place would be where his descendants would live in the future. It would be a pleasure for him to make this place more suitable for living.
In the deepest part of the underground building, there were 4 Knights guarding it.
"Head Knight Hoover had ordered people to guard this place after the George family got into trouble. Ever since the Wizard Union exiled the George family, no one has entered this place!" Burbage's steward said softly.
Abel nodded and said to the 4 Knights, "Thank you for your hard work!"
"Your Majesty!" The four knights bowed in a knight's salute and said excitedly in unison.
After they straightened their bodies, they looked at each other. Afterward, the 4 Knights each took out a key and inserted it into the keyhole behind the door. Each key could only be turned once. After 4 turns, the door was opened.
Unless the 4 Knights betrayed him at the same time, the treasury could not be opened.
Abel took 2 steps forward and noticed that steward Burbage did not follow. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Steward Burbage, let's go in together!"
"Yes, your Majesty!" Steward Burbage's serious face quickly changed from surprise to joy as he lowered his voice.
A king's trust in his steward was reflected in his openness to secrets. Just like a family, some families would let their steward control the family's secret room, but some families only allowed the owner to enter.
This showed how much trust the steward had in his steward. Steward Burbage was very grateful to Abel's request. That one sentence alone had elevated his status in the palace.
Actually, Abel didn't care too much about the treasury of the duchy. He just wanted to see if there were any unexpected rewards. The treasures in the treasury were only valuable for normal people, not wizards.
Abel was considered a rich man among wizards, so he didn't care too much about the treasury.
Did he have to come down here and take out some rewards in the future?
Therefore, it was necessary to give the steward the authority of the treasury. At the same time, it was also a test for the steward of Burbage.
