Chapter 56: The Barons Banquet (Part 2)

  Chapter 56: The Baron's Dinner Party (Part 2)

  As the boss of 'Snow Bear House', Haku's personal strength and temper are widely talked about, and his loud voice is also well-known to people.

  Buzz, buzz!

  It was as if the entire hall had been silenced by Hack's loud voice, and even a low echo appeared, while several guests closer to Hack seemed to be about to fall over in the midst of this huge sound.

  "What's going on with Hack?"

  The baron thought of his loyal subordinates and asked.

  Although the other party has now become the owner of an inn, Baron Teir is well aware of his loyalty and strength. Otherwise, he would not have been entrusted with the task of training some new recruits, which is something that only the commander of the Knights of Teir can handle.

  It can be seen from this that Baron Tir trusts Hack.

  At this time, it was no exception. If someone else dared to shout like that, Baron Teir would have had his captain of the guard throw them out long ago.

  "Dean Ken got his uniform dirty because he saved me, and since the dinner party is about to start soon, there's no time to change into a new one!"

  Hake bowed to the baron and roughly recounted what had happened earlier.

  "Is that so?"

  The baron was taken aback, then quickly looked at his chief guard, who immediately ran out of the hall and came back just two minutes later - in fact, those reporting guards almost arrived at the baron's mansion with Dean, but because of today's special situation, they did not notify Baron Till in the first place.

  "Adults, everything is true, and..."

  The captain of the guard answered firmly, then looked around hesitantly.

  "Speak up, Airenluo! Everyone present here is trustworthy!"

  The baron waved his hand, indicating.

  "Those who attacked us are the thieves we're looking for!"

  The captain of the guard answered truthfully.

  "What?!"

  The baron was taken aback, but looking at his determined captain of the guard, he immediately knew it was a fact; instantly, this Baron Thiel, who hated thieves like a mortal enemy, loudly shouted: "Go, I want to see the heads of these guys!"

  Having said that, the Baron was the first to walk out.

  Those guests followed closely behind.

  But Dean, who had been silent all along, was already one step ahead and arrived at the small square in front of the hall. He looked at Baron Teal walking out and signaled his subordinates to thoroughly display those 'achievements'.

  Rumble, rumble...

  In an instant, dozens of human heads rolled into the small square in front of the baron's great hall.

  Looking at the heads all over the ground, the baron was stunned, and it was clear that he had absolutely not expected there to be so many heads. The advisor and the captain of the guard were also stunned on the side.

  What about other guests?

  Although they were growing in the territory, it was clear that they were not quite adapted to bloodshed. When the head rolled out of the bag, these guests who had been proud and arrogant just a moment before suddenly turned pale and retreated in unison, with several even being frightened into falling to the ground, including Mr. Weibo, who had been crying and shouting earlier.

  Even those young people who had always thought themselves brave now looked a bit pale - they found that talking big in the baron's hall and facing real slaughter were somewhat different.

  "Baron, this is the head of 'Bull' Cybul, the murderer of Sir Fochalain, the commander of the Knights of Fochalain!"

  Without batting an eyelid at the bloodiness, Dean calmly picked up the most valuable head and handed it to Baron Teir; as he approached, some of the guests who had been holding back could no longer bear it, and they began to retch quietly, clutching their chests.

  "'Wild Bull' Siebel? This is quite a formidable guy!"

  The baron let out a murmur of admiration, and then, when he heard the low retching sound, he couldn't help but cast a displeased glance at the guests beside him, especially when he saw those young people shrinking back in fear. It made him so angry that he didn't want to look at them again - compared to the young nobleman in front of him, those guys were simply shameful.

  "Are these guys Seabury's men?"

  The baron, who felt that he might have been too careless in inviting guests, became unusually gentle in his tone towards Dean.

  "No, these five skulls are those of the thieves, and this captive - he must be their leader!"

  Deen gave a very honest wave of his hand, then nodded to his two militiamen, who brought out the bandit who had regained consciousness but was tightly bound and gagged.

  "Ramos!!"

  When he saw the man's face clearly, the baron shouted loudly without regard for his dignity, and the anger and murderous intent on his face were clear to anyone.

  "Dean Ken Knights, can I have this captive? He's quite important to me!"

  The Baron said to Dean with an unprecedented seriousness.

  "Of course!"

  For Dean, who knew that Ramoz was one of the culprits behind the murder of Baron Teir's uncle, such a favor would naturally not be refused. He nodded his head in agreement.

  "Thank you very much. In a moment, I will give you what is due to you... Of course, also to you all, as a reward for eliminating the thieves, I will give double!"

  The baron first gave Dean a promise, then turned his head to those militiamen and said - it was clear that the baron's financial tension was not for nothing.

  Just then, the Baron's advisor, who had been about to remind him of something, weakly hung his head.

  However, in front of him was a flash of gold.

  Not dazzling, but rather soft and gentle, making one unable to help but gaze at it.

  This consultant was no exception, however, when he saw what the golden streak was, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and took a step forward in an unseemly manner, his voice trembling as he said: "Dean Ken Knight, may I take a look at the ring on your hand? Oh, no, no, I don't mean anything else, please don't misunderstand, you just need to lift up your left hand?"

  The sudden request caused the baron, who was chatting with Dean on the other side, to frown.

  However, thinking of his own advisors' and attendants' personalities, the baron almost subconsciously looked towards Dean's slowly rising left hand.

  "One Ring of the Knights?!"

  Almost simultaneously, the baron and his staff let out a low cry of surprise, but only Hack and the captain of the guard heard it, and both men's faces showed an expression of incredulity after a moment's pause - they, who had undergone the 'Knight's Baptism', naturally understood what this meant.

  Descendants of the Yellow Emperor!

  Follow the golden descendants of that 'female emperor'.

  Even though the era of that 'Empress' has long since ended, this does not mean that the glory of that time has also passed. On the contrary, in the hearts of some traditionalists, that was the most glorious period of the Jade Kingdom. Even if it is no longer possible to distinguish between true and false, the Jade Kingdom does not mind paying a price of one or two viscounts or barons for this.

  Simply put, those who possess the 【Knight's Ring】, gain not only honor but also the rights that come with it.

  "It's an honor for Valyria to make your acquaintance!"

  "It's an honor for Icos to know you!"

  There is no doubt that Baron Thir was a traditionalist and so were his staff.

  As for that captain of the guard?

  At this moment, Dean made a knight's courtesy - a common courtesy among peers.

  Dien guessed that the "Knight's Ring" would have a considerable effect - in the original history, the two tomb raiders' swaggering and deception had already demonstrated the charm of the "Knight's Ring".

  But without personal experience, one can never feel that kind of charm.

  "Dean Kent is also honored to meet you all!"

  Faced with results far beyond expectations, Dean continued to show his humility.

  And such humility, at this moment, was seen by Baron Teir and his staff, and it was another feeling - indeed worthy of being the 'Golden Descendant'!

  "I have prepared some fine Rhum Agricole here, hope to share it with you!"

  The baron unconsciously raised the dinner wine to another level again.

  "This is certainly an honor for me, but before this..."

  Dean's words were followed by a pause, and then his gaze turned to the guests who had already been stunned by what was happening in front of them.

  At this moment, these guests unconsciously lowered their heads under Dean's gaze, and even a few stubborn young people were no exception.

  It's clear they're worried about getting into trouble.

  But Baron Thiel furrowed his brow, only to sigh a moment later - he was ready to expel these guests, even if it would leave them utterly humiliated; wasn't that what they deserved?

  But just as the baron was about to speak, Dean spoke up instead —

  "But before that, I think it's better to hand over the gifts for Miss Lily and Master Dart personally!"

  Dean said so.

  Lily Teal, eldest daughter of Baron Teal.

  Dart Thirlwall, second son of Baron Thirlwall.

  As soon as the words came out, all the barons and guests present were stunned for a moment. Then, a sincere smile appeared on the baron's face, while those guests were rejoicing at their own good fortune and regretting their previous rudeness. Of course, there were also some who were very dissatisfied and wanted to see what gift Dean had given.

  Is it more precious than they are!
