"Whoosh—whoosh—"

About halfway through the afternoon, Knight Valos saw the stone wall on the north side of his territory.

In order to quickly escape the battlefield, he had discarded all the weight that could be discarded, and now only his greaves and great shield remained on his body.

At the time, all I wanted to do was leave as quickly as possible.

But when the territory actually appeared before him, he stopped in his tracks.

What good would it do to go back to our territory?

Is Baron Talis still alive?

Knight Valos leaned against a thick pine tree, staring blankly at the stone wall a hundred meters away.

If Baron Taliss were still alive, he would surely pursue the matter of his vassal's escape.

He will inevitably face an extremely high price at that time!

What if Baron Taliss dies?

Then he can get through this winter peacefully.

But only this winter!

When the Vatican's fine-collecting team arrives next year, they will surely confiscate everything belonging to Baron Talis!

And he and his territory are also included in "everything" as recognized by the Vatican!

In the eyes of the Papacy, barons were the lowest rank of nobles they recognized, while knights were merely the barons' warriors.

He lacks independence.

But there are always exceptions.

Snapped!

Knight Valos slammed his hand on the tree trunk and strode toward the stone wall.

He wanted to take the initiative to bring the news of the saintess to the Holy See!

Although he had never left this border region, he had heard some news from the caravans that came every year.

It is certain that this saint from the Herderbeth family was supported by many Papal powers.

Especially after she tried to get the Vatican to cover the cost of weapons and equipment for her warriors, the Lightbringers praised her highly!

If he wants to break away from Baron Talis, the only way is for the Papacy to recognize his independence.

Then there's only one way.

You've done a great service!

Even those without a papal title can be canonized as "saints" by the papacy if they perform great deeds.

At that time, he would no longer be Baron Talis's warrior, but a nobleman of the Papacy!

His territory, wealth, and family will naturally be preserved.

They might even take over the baron's territory!

Snap, snap...

As Valos walked and pondered, he realized that he had already walked into the river outside the wall.

"Lord Varos?!"

Behind the wall, the soldiers on guard duty in the watchtower were awakened by the sound of wading through water and quickly pretended that they were standing guard diligently.

"I'll open the door for you right away!"

"Need not."

As soon as the soldier slid down the ladder, Knight Valos began to run.

Bang Bang Bang Bang...

He rushed to the foot of the stone wall and with a great leap, he climbed to the top of the stone wall!

"Go quickly and gather the other soldiers! I'll go find the steward."

What happened?

The soldier had just opened the door when he saw his father jump down from the wall.

He was puzzled, but dared not disobey his master's orders.

"Yes, my lord! The butler is..."

Before the soldier could finish speaking, Knight Valos had already run off.

"A victory celebration banquet is being prepared at the main house."

Knight Valos certainly knew.

After all, he had made a prediction before setting off that as long as the battle went smoothly, he could return tonight to hold a victory celebration.

Therefore, he rushed directly to the main gate of the house.

The butler's shouts came from inside the main house.

"The sauce's perfect! Let's go roast the pig!"

"This lamb's meat is too tough! I said I wanted a good lamb! If you try to fool me with this six-month-old lamb again, I'll roast you!"

Snapped--

He pushed open the main gate of the house abruptly, and the butler and servants in the hall all looked over.

"My lord!"

The butler was surprised to see Knight Valos return so early, and he quickly put on a smile and went to greet him.

"My lord, your bravery is truly admirable..."

The adult's bravery far exceeded his imagination!

They came back before it was even time to eat.

"Stop. Don't prepare anymore."

Knight Valos interrupted him.

"Go and assemble the soldiers as quickly as possible, prepare the donkey carts, and take all the valuables and my family with you. We must set off for the Papacy as fast as we can."

"Holy See?"

The butler stared wide-eyed in disbelief and repeated the word.

"Which Vatican?"

"The Sacred Burning Cathedral next to the Royal City of Snow."

Although Knight Valos was anxious, he also understood that some things needed to be clarified.

"We've discovered something significant and need to inform the Vatican in exchange for credit. We must act quickly."

"Congratulations, sir."

The housekeeper knew this was a good thing.

"However, if we go now, we won't be able to return in winter. My lord, should I take the finances and soldiers of Tufate Manor with me?"

In the days leading up to this, Knight Valos officially took over the Tufate Knight Territory and renamed it Tufate Manor.

Apart from the change of lord, everything else remained the same.

Even Sir Tufate's thirteen-year-old wife still lives in the original main house.

This served as a reminder to Knight Valos.

"Alright, send half of the soldiers over to convey my orders and tell them to prepare. The other half will come with me to the Knight Commandery of Matica in the west."

"Yes, sir!"

The housekeeper quickly agreed.

"Your kindness will surely move the Vatican!"

After saying that, he went out to gather the soldiers.

Knight Valos then looked at the servants in the hall.

"What are you standing there for? Go move the things!"

"Yes, sir!"

Seeing everyone busy, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

That should be enough.

He didn't actually know whether the Knight of Matica was dead or not.

However, the outcome of his trip cannot be confirmed.

He must carry more wealth with him.

To the south lies Baron Talis's estate; ordinary estates do not have warehouses.

The warehouse is in the town of Talis.

Too far.

Only the Tufate Manor in the east and the Matica Knights' Territory in the west, each with its own lord, had warehouses and kept a large number of livestock.

He needs more financial support, more donkeys and horses, and matching carriages.

And it's only a short walk between these two territories to have a meal.

He was in a hurry, so he could only grab the valuables from these two territories and run.

"My lord! I have brought you an ordinary warhorse. The soldiers are all arranged!"

The butler's voice came from outside the door.

"very good!"

Knight Valos touched the iron sword at his waist and mounted his horse.

"Load everyone and everything onto the wagons, and meet me at the Knights' Headquarters in Matica. We'll head directly west."

"Yes, sir!"

The steward inspected the horse's equipment for him.

"Alright, sir. I hope the Matica family can understand your kindness."

"They can't refuse. Oh, and I must bring my decree of investiture."

Knight Valos answered casually, then glanced at the six soldiers around him.

"Soldiers! Let's go!"

……

The sun has completely set, and the moon hangs high in the sky.

Baron Talis, with eighty-odd soldiers, came to the stone wall at the northern end of the Valos Knights' territory.

Upon seeing the stone wall, he thought of the knight Valos who had been the first to flee.

That guy actually dared to abandon him, a feudal lord!

Suppressing the anger rising within him, Baron Talis led his soldiers across the river and looked at the gate that separated the territory from the ruins.

The front door was wide open?!
