There was no fun in chatting with his brother Levis. Even if he was complimenting himself all the way, Liszt still felt bored.
So after a simple chat about the joy of riding a dragon, he went into the study and went about his own business.
Markus and Mary followed him into the study.
"Captain Markus, I expect that a large number of Sapphire Knight will soon want to join the Black Horse Island Orders of Chivalry. I will leave this to you. Don't want a Knight with bad conduct, a Knight with mediocre talent, and an older Knight. In short, choosing a Knight requires both moral and talent. "
Liszt said.
Since he revealed his identity as a Dragon Knight and A Qi revealed her identity as a Magic Shooter, it could be said that the founding of a nation was imperative. The second son of a noble and a civilian Knight who could not progress in Sapphire would certainly see Liszt as the greatest opportunity and want to become a veteran of a new country.
But Liszt was not a hungry lord, and any Knight could become his follower. "Better to have nothing than to have something shoddy. Anyway, I don't plan to build a nation in the short term. It's easier to gain loyalty by training a Knight ourselves."
Markus replied in a deep voice, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, Markus will guard the Knight selection checkpoint and select a Knight who meets the standards you set!" Although his expression seemed calm, his eyes were burning with excitement like fire, burning since he was still on the ship.
A huge sense of unreality had always enveloped him – it was unimaginable that he had been a tutor to the Dragon Knight!
And now his identity was the confidant of the Dragon Knight and the head of the Black Horse Island Orders of Chivalry. Perhaps one day the Orders of Chivalry would grow and the country would begin to build, and he would not be able to keep up with the great Dragon Knight, but he believed that his relationship with Liszt would benefit him for life.
For the time being, it was only the title of Lord Knight, but the future would never stop there.
"There is one more thing." Liszt thought of something again. "With the Magic Shooters by my side, there will definitely be a large number of mages pouring into the territory in the future. Kris is not good at organization management. I hope you can work with Kris, Paris, Charles, and Mary to come up with a unified management plan as soon as possible. "
Just like how a Dragon Knight could attract a large number of Knight followers, a Magic Shooter would naturally be the faith of a Mage.
It's not just the Sapphire Magicians who want to make a pilgrimage to A Qi. After the news spreads, the Iron and Steel Ridge Kingdom, the Eagle Kingdom, and even more distant kingdoms should have magicians coming to make a pilgrimage.
Liszt did not like the stubborn side of Magicians, but it was not impossible to make use of Magicians. Anyway, with his and A Qi's strength, if a magician dared to violate the territory's laws, they could directly obliterate him — the only thing they had to guard against was a dragon-slaying incident like the goat gathering.
Therefore, it was very important to introduce unified management and strengthen the surveillance of Magicians.
After talking about the Magicians.
Liszt left Mary alone and began to talk about the Vampires. "Alonso has fled, and I don't know if those Vampires are hiding. In any case, they are a disaster in Sapphire. Mary, you have to find them as soon as possible and inform me. "
Mary nodded. "Your Highness, rest assured, the Blood Servants will never let the Black Knight Family Vampires escape from Sapphire!"
… …
Night.
The banquet was held in Oxhoof Castle. After the arrival of the Orders of Chivalry from the remote Coral Island, basically all the Orders of Chivalry of Sapphire's great nobles had arrived, and the scale of the banquet reached an unprecedented height.
At the Grand Duke's table, in addition to Liszt and A Qi, the seven Marquises or the heirs of the Marquises were allowed to attend.
From Red Crab Island came Messiro Longtaro; from Deep Throat Island came Warner Pineapple, the eldest son of Marquis Wallace; from Golden Island came Marquis Roderick Golden Wheat; from Red Maple City came Marquis Grindenton Red Maple Leaf; from Leather Island came Marquis Ramires White Glutinous Rice.
Together with Marquis Nesta Magnolia of Quicksand City, Marquis Oxtail Lee William Tulip, and Eldest Prince Anthony, a total of eleven people were talking and laughing.
"If it weren't for His Highness Liszt's help, Sapphire's battle situation would have deteriorated. Your Highness, please accept my respect." Anthony raised his cup in a toast.
The Eldest Prince's attitude changed very calmly.
At the celebration banquet of Marquis Oxtail, he had the air of a lord everywhere and looked at Liszt as if he was looking at his own follower. Not long after, he needed to look at Liszt with admiration and no longer dared to put on any airs. The title of "Your Highness" was also changed to Liszt.
"Eldest Prince, you are too polite. The sea is not a place where the Eagle Kingdom should intervene. Sapphire is also my hometown, so it is only right that I take action." Liszt smiled and raised his cup.
Anthony suddenly smiled and said, "Your Highness Liszt, you can just call me Anthony."
Liszt readily accepted the good advice and said, "Yes, Anthony." He really did not want to call the other party Eldest Prince. He was clearly the son of a duke. It was a bit funny to have to deceive himself and come up with titles such as prince and princess in a rural island country like Sapphire.
Of course, the nobles were thick-skinned, and other duchies basically did the same — after all, duchies were also countries.
The Grand Duke sat in the main seat and watched his eldest son socialize enthusiastically with the marquises and Liszt. He felt a little comforted in his heart. In any case, Sapphire had a qualified heir. He quietly gave his brother-in-law Nesta a look, and Nesta understood.
He raised his cup and said in a clear voice, "This cup celebrates Sapphire's victory. May the glory of the Knight always bless Sapphire and everyone present."
Everyone raised their cups together.
After drinking, Nesta raised his cup again and said, "This cup celebrates His Highness Liszt and His Excellency Achilles Rhodes for turning the tide and becoming famous in the sea."
Liszt raised his cup again and accepted everyone's salute.
He was no longer a political novice, and he probably knew that the Grand Duke was just hinting to Nesta to flatter him and put him in a higher position, so that he would not easily have any ideas about Sapphire. Sapphire's strength was now extremely weak and could not withstand Liszt's challenge.
Especially when the Sapphire Dragon was unconscious, it was almost at the mercy of others. Of course, it could not be ruled out that the Grand Duke was pretending again, and the Sapphire Dragon might just be pretending to sleep. After all, this kind of thing happened once, naturally there would be a second and third time.
In this way, the dinner ended in a harmonious and lively atmosphere.
However, the crowd did not disperse. The Grand Duke took advantage of the gathering and announced, "His Excellency Liszt has become a Dragon Knight and has decided to establish a country at the right time. I have also decided that Sapphire will fully support His Excellency Liszt in establishing a country … So in the preparatory stage, His Excellency Liszt needs a suitable identity."
Liszt smiled and said nothing.
He was happy to see the Grand Duke promote him. At least before the country was established, he did need a higher noble identity — a marquis.
In the Eagle Kingdom, all Dragon Knight started as a marquis.
