Chapter Seventeen, Fame Spreads Far and Wide (for further reading)

After the atmosphere cooled down a bit, Chelsea clapped his hands and signaled everyone to quiet down.

Only his rich voice was heard: "Gentlemen, in addition to celebrating this great victory at today's banquet, I also want to announce the latest position adjustment."

Everyone at the banquet suddenly became silent. They all focused their attention on a piece of parchment in the hands of the Viscount. They were filled with anticipation, anxiety, and resentment... all at once.

Ryan also became interested. He was also curious about what his appointment was. It would be great if he could have some leisure time.

Chelsea didn't show off, and read in parallel: "The commander of the first battalion is Baron Chris. The first battalion...

The second and third battalions remain unchanged, and the fourth battalion consists of...

The fifth battalion is commanded by Sir Ryan Leigh Black. The first battalion is commanded by Alan Davis Knight, and the second battalion..."

Ryan was immediately dumbfounded. He glanced in the direction of Baron Holden and found that he was looking at him with hatred, like a cold and poisonous snake.

He couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead. Well, the source of his hatred was found. It turned out that he had landed in his position. No wonder he was so angry when he came up.

The scene immediately began to talk, and those who had been in contact with Ryan also focused their attention on him, wanting to know what was special about him.

You must know that there are only seven battalions in the entire legion, all of which are commanded by barons or powerful knights. I don’t know why Ryan, who is so young, can take Holden’s position.

Although Holden delayed the military situation in this battle and almost disrupted Chelsea's deployment, there was no need to find such a young man to humiliate him, right?

"Is he the illegitimate son of the Viscount?"

"It's also possible that a direct descendant of a big family came to do the gold plating."



Listening to the increasingly outrageous speculations, Chelse suddenly darkened his face and shouted: "Quiet, gentlemen, your current behavior is no different from those long-tongued women. Listen to me:

The commander of the Sixth Battalion remains unchanged. Due to the heavy losses, the Seventh Battalion was temporarily incorporated into the city defense. Sir Eisen served as the garrison officer, and the adjutant was..."

No one reacted to these arrangements. They were mainly discussing Ryan. In a short period of time, Ryan's identity had changed dozens of times.

Baron Horton became even more angry as he listened, and left the banquet on his own. This was a serious disrespect, and it showed that he was very angry.

Ryan's face was also extremely wonderful. He originally wanted to fish in a more leisurely position, but who knew that he would directly lead a main force battalion. In this fight, he would be able to escape?

Chelsea pulled the autistic Ryan to his side, signaled everyone to be quiet and said: "Stop making random guesses, gentlemen. Sir Ryan's appointment to this position is entirely based on merit and is completely in compliance with the laws of the kingdom."

It's okay not to explain, but as soon as he explained, it exploded. Many people were unbalanced for a while. Grandma, I didn't even see this kid during the charge. Why did he have such high achievements? This made so many people present

Where to put your face?

"Your Majesty the Viscount, does Sir Ryan have such high achievements at such a young age? Are you deceived by him?" A sturdy black-faced knight stood up and asked.

He was the commander of a cavalry brigade and contributed a lot in this battle. He originally thought that this adjustment would allow him to move up, but in the end he only got one city defense adjutant.

He issued his own protest against Ryan's airborne behavior.

Chelsea showed a deep smile, raised Ryan's hand and said: "Sir Ryan, during the previous great retreat, he and the Knights of Allen collected the defeated troops, and encountered the enemy general Viscount Kaiser halfway.

After the first battle, Sir Ryan killed two knights and one magician, annihilated nearly 300 enemy troops, and killed Kaiser Boorman! Such a feat, gentlemen, is it enough to qualify you!"

The entire banquet fell silent, with only Chelsea's voice echoing, deafening.

"Kill...Kaiser Boorman?"

"No wonder the intelligence said that Cather was not in the military camp. It turned out that he was killed by Sir Ryan!"



For a time, Ryan became the center of attention. I believe it won't be long before his deeds and name will be spread throughout the battlefield.

After all, in the three years since the war began, there have been only a handful of achievements in killing or capturing a person of Kaiser's status. Even in the battle report submitted to the royal capital, it would still be on the front page!

Even the marshal will remember his name.

In comparison, the two knights and the magician are not worth mentioning. Just killing Kaiser will allow Ryan to obtain a good baron territory.



When Ryan staggered out of the banquet, five knights and two barons had already expressed their intention to marry him.

With Chelsea's hint in front of him, he didn't dare to listen to these people's suggestions and refused directly.

No matter how great his achievements are, only if Chelsea is satisfied can Ryan live happily. Otherwise, just by using some tricks, Ryan will be unable to eat and walk around, and there is nothing you can do about him.

The rank of the Great Knight is enough for Ryan to extinguish any unrealistic illusions.

Ham had been waiting outside for a long time. After getting on the horse, Ryan's originally blurred eyes suddenly became sober.

"Hmph, you want to overwhelm me with a wine with only this alcohol content?" Ryan curled his lips disdainfully. If he hadn't been afraid of those people continuing to pester him and pretended to be drunk, he could have drank alcohol that was not much higher than beer.

A few large bottles without blushing.

"Sir, what are we doing now?"

Ham looked at him in confusion, wondering why Ryan, who was half drunk and half awake, suddenly acted like he was fine.

"Of course I'm going back to my place, I need to do something." Ryan waved his whip, and the horse disappeared under the night.

After returning to his residence in the military camp, Ryan came to sit down at the desk, skillfully took out pen and ink and parchment, and began to consider the content.

This is the letter he plans to send back home. After all, he is not alone in this life. There are family members who care about him in a distant place.

Every quarter of the year, he writes a letter to report on his current situation. This is the first letter in winter and the last letter of the year.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ryan picked up the quill and wrote the first word on the rough animal skin paper with the help of a weak candlelight...

This letter is very long. I wrote it until late at night. I changed the candles three times before I finished it. After finishing the final packaging, the letter was completed.

Tomorrow, this letter will be brought back to the kingdom by the kingdom's messengers, and then delivered to Ryan's mother. This process is very long, and may take two to three months.

Ryan knew that there was a magical device in this world with fast communication speed that could communicate hundreds of kilometers away and be received by the other party in just one or two hours.

It's just that the cost of this device is very precious, and the communication cost is also high. It is said to be driven by magic crystal. Moreover, it is used in conjunction with one son and one mother. Generally, it can only be used by expeditionary armies or big nobles.

There is a sub-device in Chelsea, which is used to send messages to the royal capital. It can be transmitted layer by layer for thousands of kilometers, and a round trip only takes a little more than a day.

There is already some radio flavor in it.

It's just that this precious device cannot be used by Ryan. Even Chelsea is very cautious in using it and doesn't use it if it can be used.
