"Under the gaze of the Father, under the gaze of all the nobles of Swadia, in the castle built by the ancient kings, I, the lord of Suno and the defender of the royal family, Count Craggs, to the people who descended from the order-- Von Byron of Serendil asked, "Son of common people, are you willing to be loyal to our great king, His Majesty King Harous, and assume your due obligations?"

"I swear, sir, in my lifetime, I will obey the decision of His Majesty the King to strictly abide by his laws, defend his territory, defend his honor, be ready to draw the sword to fight for him, and be loyal to you and the law of the king. Heir."

"In the name of the king, I witnessed you swear to him and conveyed his wishes. Your Majesty accepted your oath and ordered me to grant you rights on his behalf. From now on, the king guarantees that your life and property will not be affected. Infringe, and will grant you a fief, allowing you to call up and dominate the army in the name of the king, conquer the enemy in the name of the kingdom, and protect your reputation from inferior people. Here, I, Lord Suno, Kingdom The defender of the Kingdom, the loyal vassal of His Majesty King Haraus, Earl Craggs, officially conveyed the king’s order to grant you the title of Earl, and grant you the title of Earl of Amira as a fief. Get up, Earl von Byron, may The honor is with you."

"Thanks to His Majesty the King for his grace, and wish King Harous's health and longevity, and long live the King!"

Despite his reluctance, Byron still thanked the king in his respect. Earl Craggs nodded, raised the sword given by the king and tapped it twice on Byron's shoulders, and then personally took the token that the king had given to Byron, and solemnly handed it to him.

"At this point, I am honored to witness you-von Byron has officially become the noble earl of Swadia and become one of us. Please come up, Lord Byron, and may the honor be with you."

As soon as the words passed, a team of very fancy musicians immediately blew the trumpet, and the guards at the door also raised the peony banner, the same height as the lion of Craggs. Count Craggs bowed to Byron, and Madame Anna and Nelda bowed and saluted together, just as they did with any other Swadia Count lords. The attendants, servants, and guards in the hall clapped happily. This is a rare scene in their lives. They are naturally quite satisfied to see the earl being canonized in their status.

However, their applause made Byron's heart even more bitter. For the other earls, when they accepted the king's canonization, they were all the earl lords, the powerful barons and members of the royal family, and they also received the congratulations and applause of these dignitaries. And all he can accept is the cheers of these people of the same humble background as him, who became a legal earl under the witness of these people. He doesn’t blame Earl Craggs. After all, he has done the best he can. He has been suggesting to himself that he should put on good clothes. He also specially prepared a delicate cloak for him and entertained him with very high standards of etiquette. A fair ceremony was held for him. In the end, King Haraus did not give him face. In his eyes, he was a mercenary aristocrat of civilian origin after all. It was a kind of insult to the adults who attended the ceremony as he was very shameful to the king.

These are also reflected in the oath, and Byron's oath is not lacking, accepting all the obligations of the earl. But when the king should grant him rights, he obviously erased the last sentence of the oath and revised the penultimate sentence. Byron's reputation cannot be violated by people of lower status, but there are no restrictions on high-ranking nobles. The earl should be respected everywhere in the kingdom, but Byron did not mention it at all.

He never thought that he would be treated like this. He once reflected on his actions and felt that he had not fully proved his usefulness to the king, his attitude was not good, and he did not provide enough benefits. He was also famous among the rich and powerful. It’s not good, so he kept sacrificing his own interests to please the king and prince, making friends with nobles everywhere, lowering his posture again and again, spending a lot of money and the lives of his soldiers to prepare for the war, competing with the Rhodoks for castles, and becoming When he was full of joy that he could get their approval, reality gave him a sweet date, and then slapped him fiercely. In order to go to Palavin to participate in the event, he customized an expensive dress at Suno’s best tailor at a price of 800 dinars. He used two pounds of gold as the cost of gilding his weapons and armor, and practiced etiquette with the castle steward every day. To behave, learn the court language with Nelda so as not to be annoying, and to prepare for this ceremony, I also recruited Fattis and the others at the same time, let them bring more gifts, the best of his war spoils Take out that part.

It now appears that everything he worked hard to do before was so ridiculous. The high-level nobles and kings should treat him like what kind of attitude, the title given to him is not so much recognition as it is helpless to give him alms.

If Byron was a native of Calradia, then he might have recognized it. After all, even this is a good thing that Guangzong Yaozu would never have thought of. But he is not. He comes from another world and has completely different thoughts. Even if he has adapted to this world and even changed the way of thinking to a certain extent, what should be there will still be there.

He had a sudden realization of the experience summed up by those ancestors. In this world, his birth has already determined the respect he can get. Instead of relying on the traditional powerful and powerful and spending generations of time to blend in with them and corrupt himself, it is better to blend in with himself. The original camp. There are countless civilians and poor people on this continent, and many people who can't even reach this line. Controlling them is the ruling foundation of the nobles, but what if they change? Instead of relying on the owner like the cattle, sheep and animals in different pens like before~lightnovelpub.net~, but united under the leadership of someone who can bring them a better life? He knows what he should do. He must and can only do so if he wants to achieve a real career in Calradia!

Byron strengthened his conviction and rectified his emotions. He got up to thank Earl Craggs and put forward what he had always wanted to say.

"My lord, I have been adored by Nelda for a long time. I would like to spend my life with her. Will you give her to me, let me give her happiness and the glory of our two families?"

Nelda blushed when Byron said this, but looked at her father with expectant eyes. Mrs. Anna smiled and nodded, holding her daughter's hand, and whispering something to her.

"Of course, it is my honour to bring you into my family. I am very happy that you can come together. I agree to this marriage and send the most sincere blessings from a father, Lord Byron." Earl Craggs It seemed that he had been waiting for this for a long time, he seemed very happy, agreed happily, and opened his arms to Byron.

"Honesty and fear, my lord."

Byron bowed a salute and gave the earl a simple hug. In this way, he became Nelda's fiancé. In this way, he also truly had a home in this world.
