This time, Laing went from hugging his wife to hugging a woman on each side. The Lake Fairy forced her way in, and Suria also moved aside to make space for the Lake Fairy.
For Suria, sharing her husband with her goddess was the happiest time of her life. It was double the happiness.
"… Lady, can you not do this?" Laing hugged the Lake Fairy and let her find a comfortable position to lean on. Then he said, "I never stopped you from coming over, so don't make a surprise attack!"
"How can I not show up after hearing this? Didn't I tell you that Suria and I are together? " The Lake Fairy lay on Laing's body lazily. She looked at Laing with a playful expression on her beautiful face. "What, you don't like it?"
"It's not that I don't like it, but we are husband and wife. Lady, you …" Laing looked very conflicted.
"Hmm? You are with me on your honeymoon, and now you don't want me to join you? " The Lake Fairy pinched Laing's face and said with a threatening tone. She didn't force Laing to say anything. Instead, she rested her head on Laing's left shoulder and said, "I can give you a lot of advice, right? Suria? "
"Yes, Laing, it doesn't matter if the lady listens to our conversation. She is not an outsider." Suria rested her head on Laing's right shoulder. The female knight also smiled and said, "Where were we?"
"We were talking about Suria planning to hold a Winter Veil Festival party … Suria, are you serious?" Laing was helpless. He could only hug the goddess and the female knight tightly.
"Why not? It will be easier to manage them together. " Suria tested Laing's opinion. "And we have to get together. Emilia will leave after the New Year, so it will be inconvenient for us to get together again."
"Okay, if you must." Laing didn't have any opinion on this. He didn't lack women around him, and after the wedding, he said that he wouldn't have any more wives. Suria was usually in charge of the backyard. It was necessary to strengthen the female knight's authority, and Laing also supported it.
"I will be there to witness it." The Lake Fairy's green eyes turned. "I will also participate."
And so, the party was decided.
After chatting for a while, the topic returned to the land reclamation near the Blackstone Stronghold and Duke Gisoleiox, Hagan. After being disturbed by the Lake Fairy, Laing and Suria didn't feel sleepy anymore. They just lay together and chatted. "If everything goes well, Duke Hagan will agree to let the dwarves help to suppress the bandits. Then, we can use the rebellious serfs to suppress the bandits. As long as they are willing to surrender, be lenient, provide food, work for the dwarves, develop the wasteland, build a trading post, and work hard for three to five years to atone for their sins, the serfs will agree. Actually, I don't like to solve problems through violence. It's not their fault that the serfs don't have enough to eat. It's because of Kemmler's attack. Now, not only are the serfs harmed by the undead, but they will also be suppressed by the nobles in the name of rebellion. In the end, they will be pardoned by the nobles.
"It's not the same. The original bandits are a problem left behind by history. You can use the excuse that you are a new count to give them lenient treatment. However, the serfs in Gisoleiox are actually rebellious. If you don't suppress them, it will easily give the serfs the impression that the nobles are afraid of rebellion. In the future, if the serfs rebel again, they will have nothing to worry about. They will think that they will be pardoned in the end anyway." Suria said gently, "We can't start this, Laing. I understand how you feel. We have to treat the serfs' contributions fairly. It doesn't mean that we encourage them to rebel."
"Yeah, how ironic. The serfs worked hard for a year, but because of the undead, they were forced to rebel. In the end, we still have to send troops to suppress them, and they still have to work hard to atone for their sins." Laing also sighed. He couldn't do anything about it.
In the face of rebellion, suppressing or suppressing was an eternal topic that was debated endlessly by countless people. It was like whether the Doves or the Hawks were better. There was no perfect answer to this kind of question. It always needed a concrete analysis of the situation. In the case of Gisoleiox, suppressing and suppressing the rebellion was the more ideal solution.
"Laing, don't worry too much about this. The serfs work the land, and the knights provide protection. This has never changed in the thousands of years of the kingdom's history. How many sacrifices did you and François make to eliminate Kemmler and his army of ancient graves? If it weren't for you, the whole kingdom would have fallen into a bitter battle with the undead army. If you had failed at La Messenell Abbey, Kemmler would have no one to stop him after he obtained the Staff of Nagash. How many casualties would there have been then? I might have had to directly descend into the world to fight against him, "the fairy in the lake knew that Laing wasn't feeling good. She also said gently," That's not your fault. "
"Now I can understand what it's like to sign the order of extermination." Laing suddenly smiled and said something that the fairy in the lake and Suria didn't understand. However, the man didn't give them time to think. He continued, "Perhaps we can send Sir Bertrand to lead a battalion of troops to help Belegar."
"That thief has also been knighted. He's the one who benefited the most from this war. After more than eighty years, he's another serf who's been knighted. He's just one step away from becoming a noble knight." Suria said softly, "He's now a hero in the kingdom. As a serf who was born in the wilderness, he can be a very good role model to lead the army. I think it's fine."
After the battle of La Messenelle Abbey, the Bretons naturally wouldn't say that the great necromancer Kemmler was killed by the traitor Gul's axe. After some discussion, they announced that Kemmler was killed by Bertrand's Black Arrow, and then his body was dismembered in the chaos of the army.
"Speaking of which, Lauren should also retreat. We don't have the energy to attack Muxilon for the time being." Laing shifted the topic to Muxilon.
After communicating with Laing, Lauren Leo Cornwall led an alliance of about ten thousand people from the two duchies to attack Muxilon again. As usual, Lauren's army couldn't do anything to Muxilon's dozens of meters high walls. He could only sweep through the territory ruled by the vampires around Muxilon and destroy a large number of vampire buildings.
This was also one of the reasons why Matthew Bard chose to retreat. He couldn't sit back and watch Lauren destroy everything in Muxilon.
After Matthew Bard returned, Lauren didn't choose to fight in the field outside Muxilon with Matthew Bard. Instead, he chose to rely on Muxilon's epidemic belt to defend. Matthew Bard also had no intention of fighting a decisive battle with Lauren. After about ten days of confrontation, Duke Muxilon chose to retreat first. After seeing Matthew Bard retreat and confirming Kemmler's death, Lauren also chose to retreat.
Lauren's second attack on Muxilon had some gains and established his own prestige. He also supported Laing and François from the side. Generally speaking, it was a successful military operation. Knight King Richard immediately ordered a publicity campaign to promote Lauren's attack on Muxilon as a decisive and major battle. The battle of La Messenell Abbey between Laing and François was more like a cooperation with Lauren's operation.
Laing had no opinion on this. He didn't fight this battle for the king, but for the whole kingdom and the old world.
"Muxilon is always a cancer in the kingdom. You have to find a way to get rid of it, but don't be too hasty. There are hundreds of years of accumulation of vampires there." The Lake Fairy hugged Laing's arm. The softness and fullness of her chest gave Laing a strong pressure. She was wearing a black and white high-elven embroidered open-collared dress, and what was rare was that the goddess's legs were wearing white unicorn velvet stockings. The milky skin under the stockings was so beautiful that it was suffocating.
Sulia, on the other hand, was wearing a milky white silk nightgown and white lace stockings on her slender and straight legs. She knew that her husband's goal was to obtain the throne, so he had to conquer Muxilon and then obtain the title of Duke Muxilon.
The female knight looked at the Lake Fairy for help.
"In that case, I'll use a fair, just, and open method to decide who the next Knight King is." The Lake Fairy used the back of her hand to caress Suria's tender and smooth face, indicating that she should not be anxious.
"Fair, just, and open?"
"I will send out an oracle: Among all the eligible Knights of the Holy Grail in the kingdom, the one who can reclaim Muxilon and restore the land that belongs to Llanduin to its former glory will be the new Duke Muxilon and the King of Brittany!" The Lake Fairy raised her chin and kissed Laing gently on the lips. Then she said, "You, Laing, and the other competitors will rely on your own abilities. I will not be partial to anyone. Go, my champion. Go and prove to all the knights in the kingdom that you are the king that everyone wants!"
"Very good …" A smile appeared on Clayon's face. He liked it when everyone relied on their own abilities and methods to compete fair and square.
"Also, Laing, give birth to an heir with Suria as soon as possible." The Lake Fairy reminded Laing and his wife, "In the future, all your titles must be inherited by your and Suria's children. This is the bottom line."
"Oh … My Lady, why are you suddenly saying this …" Suria was very shy and kept burrowing into Laing's arms. "We've only been married for more than a year …"
"More than a year? It's not short. Look, Laing is with you three or four days a week, and often … Oh! " The Lake Fairy first subconsciously criticized, but then the goddess realized that she had let it slip. The Lake Fairy blushed and emphasized, "In short, both of you have to spend more time together!"
After that, the goddess' body flashed and disappeared into the air, leaving behind a blushing Suria and a squinting Laing.
"It's getting late, my wife. Let's begin." The count held his wife in his arms with a smirk on his face. "This is the Lady's oracle."
"Hmm …" The female knight blushed and lowered her head. She did not dare to look directly into Laing's eyes, afraid that Laing would see some clues in her eyes.
The divine power in her body surging like stars and another voice in her sea of consciousness told the female knight.
The goddess did not go far.
