That’s Hilarious

Chapter 24: Entering the city and being trapped

Silas, who was guarding the city wall every day, watched wave after wave of people enter the city. Every day, he left with hope and returned with disappointment.

On this day, Duke Osborne was patrolling the city wall. He also saw Silas of the Kewan family, and saw him hiding and crying. Duke Osborn shook his head helplessly and did not plan to go up to comfort him. He believed that Silas had to rely on himself to survive. Difficulties passed.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Although asking this question itself is a very stupid thing, but who made the orcs crazy now and swept all the fortresses at the northern border, according to the rules, he must ask this question, who makes him loud.

Roland: "..."

"I'm the Andal knight under Baron Kewan. As for the one next to me, it's Roland, the head of the Dawn-breaker mercenary group hired by the Kewan family. We're here to avoid the orcs."

Although Roland said he was speechless, Andal obviously knew these procedures very well, and he answered truthfully.

Silas heard Baron Cowan's words, wiped the tears from his face, and happily ran to the top of the city to look down. Seeing that everyone below was wearing armor and helmets, he couldn't see clearly, so he immediately ran to the city gate.

"Open the city gate."

Looking at Silas who hurried down, Duke Osborn knew that his parents had died. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a knight to identify himself. As for himself, he wanted to see what Silas described as a neat array of elite mercenaries.

With the roar of the hinges, the five-meter-high fine iron city gate slowly opened.

Soon, the soldiers who filed out surrounded Roland and his party.

Roland had some expectations for this. After all, he was surrounded once when he sent Silas back to the city last time, and he was already used to it.

Faced with such a situation, the soldiers quickly formed a circular formation around Roland under the call of Mirron. They drew their swords and raised their shields, as if they were about to fight with others.

This obviously made the garrison of North Wind Fortress nervous. Although this is only a necessary procedure, if there is a fight because of this, their responsibility will not be small.

I saw that they also began to draw their swords. Suddenly, the sound of swords being drawn rang out.

"Okay, put away your weapons."

Roland gave an order, and the soldiers put away their weapons. "If you don't pay attention to this and go off the hook, you'll have to spend the rest of your life in jail."

When the other party saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief and put away his weapons.

At this moment, a young boy happily ran over and hugged Andal: "Uncle Andal, where are my father and mother?"

When faced with Silas's problem, Andal obviously didn't know what to say, so Silas quickly let go of him and started looking for his parents, which made him relieved.

When seeing Roland: "Hello, Captain Roland."

Roland nodded towards him.

After looking around, I couldn't find my parents, and the whole group seemed to be silent. Silas seemed to understand something, and the tears were left uncontrollably.

"Uncle Andal, have my parents died in battle?"

"Yes, they have died gloriously, and I have buried them." Andal said with an expression on his face.

Looking at Uncle Andal, whom he trusted, he actually said with a blank face that the fact that his parents had been killed was obviously difficult for him to accept.

"Knight Andal, why can you be so ruthless, as a vassal, why didn't you accompany the monarch. And you, Captain Roland, employed by my family, why didn't you protect me well? Father."

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. The parents he looked forward to day and night did not return, but waited for the news of death. Distraught, he blamed all his faults on others.

"Shut up, you know very well why the Andal knight as a vassal did not die. He should have followed you to the Northwind Fortress, but he chose to stay and fight. He even fulfilled your duty and buried you. parents and those soldiers loyal to the Cowan family."

"As for me, even when I found out that the city gate had been breached by the orcs, I still chose to rescue your family. I also fulfilled my duty."

Roland is obviously not used to the mind of a bear child, and he shows no sympathy for those who flee from the battle, but accuse others in turn, and show contempt.

Roland's words obviously hit Silas's pain point. He shouted frantically: "Knight Andal, I, Silas Cowan, deprive you of your knighthood in the name of the new Baron of the Cowan family."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and everyone looked at Baron Shin Kevan in disbelief.

"As you wish, my lord." Andal took out his knight's document and handed it to Silas Cowan.

Duke Osborne said, "You can't do that, boy."

"No, I can do this, it's my right." Silas Cowan finished, took the document with a gloomy face, and left without looking back.

No one saw the resentment in his eyes when he left.

As for Roland's decision to hand over the inheritance to Silas, it is now his own, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Roland of course selectively forgot about this.

"Okay, forget about those unpleasant things, and I'll go and persuade the child." Duke Osborn tried to break the embarrassment.

"I heard Silas say it many times. I thought he was just exaggerating. He dared to draw his sword in front of more people, and the rapid formation of the circle has proved your elite." Duke Osborn paused. He continued: "Nice to meet you, Captain Roland, and of course our Andal knight."

"It's my honor to meet you, my lord." After giving a respectful salute, Roland shook hands with Duke Osborn. Andal also fell silent and shook hands with him.

"Knight Andal, come with me, let's talk to Silas together."

"No, Duke Osborn, I'm no longer a knight. With the help of Captain Roland, I restrained the lord's body. Since the Kewan family no longer needs me, it's time to serve Captain Roland. already."

Facing Duke Osborn's hopeful gaze, Andal refused him without hesitation.

"Okay, welcome to this big family, Andal."

Although he has long accepted Andal's allegiance and has appointed him as the deputy head of the regiment, when Andal said so, he could only welcome him again.

"You need to stay here for a while, because we are not sure whether the orcs will attack. Of course, the city will provide you with the necessary food and camp, as well as a small commission. During this period, no one can leave the city."

"Since you young people don't want to talk to an old man like me, then I won't bother you."

Seeing that everyone was not enjoying the conversation, Duke Osborn ended the conversation after telling them the rules.
