Wolf Fort.

The current Duke of Wolf Fort is named Frank Mitteis! He’s a vibrant middle-aged man, with brown curly hair and a rugged appearance.

He stands tall, wielding a giant sword that reaches almost to his shoulder. When silent, he seems as immovable as granite, completely embodying the majesty of a Northern lord.

“Welcome, my sister! I’ve already instructed the steward to prepare rooms for you… and for Gran, Cecil, and my little angel Julian. I think they will be very happy to see Linna…”

Frank spoke up.

His voice was deep and magnetic, currently carrying a rare gentleness.

“Thank you, my brother, but I feel the security in the north could use some improvement…”

Madame Monfali responded gently.

“I will assign the matter of the mountain clans to Knight Mas.”

In fact, those mountain people would definitely dive deep into the frigid, snow-covered mountain forests at the first hint of trouble. With the harsh cold and complex terrain shielding them, finding them would become an extremely troublesome task.

At most, a few mounted heads would be collected as a warning, to vent some anger for his sister and display the authority of the Northern lord. Nothing more could really be done!

“On the road, I came across an interesting wandering knight. He calls himself Su Lu Pottery, with a black iron-level strength…”

Lady Monfali suddenly spoke up.

“It’s rare to see a talented wandering knight… Are you recommending him to me? No… you want him for yourself?”

Frank’s gaze seemed to penetrate Madame Monfali’s face, seeing into her heart.

“Yes… Pottery family, a family I’ve never heard of. He’s probably from a civilian background; he won’t refuse the offer of a land grant!”

Madame Monfali puffed up with pride: “In my Viscount’s territory, I can easily grant him one manor, even two… I know you might be willing to help me, but I need to assemble my own armed force.”

“I need to remind you – it’s not your Viscount’s territory, it’s Linna and her future husband’s territory. Until she reaches adulthood, you’re only managing it on her behalf. This is already the limit of what I can negotiate.”

The current Duke of Wolf Fort responded somewhat helplessly.

The relationship between a monarch and his subjects is very delicate, there’s even a sense of separation to it.

Even though he’s a Duke, he has no authority to arbitrarily decide the life and death of any inferior noble under him.

With the sudden death of his cousin’s husband, the Viscount of White Valley, leaving no heirs, Frank had made many sacrifices to ensure that the Viscount title remained with her and her mother.

Also, he couldn’t break the rules any further to forcefully intervene in the affairs of the Viscount of White Valley’s territory.

“My brother… you’re just too fair!”

An amusing look of resignation appeared on Madame Monfali’s face: “Do you know what I want to do most now?”

“Hang those noble opponents of yours? That would only lead to a breakdown of order… and turn the land into ruins.” Frank answered without hesitation.

He hesitated, then softened his tone slightly: “I promise you, Linna will grow up healthy and happy in Wolf Fort, until she’s an adult… The Viscount’s land and honor will belong to her and her husband, and no one can take it away.”

“By that time, my greedy officials would have plundered the Viscount’s territory countless times.”

Madame Monfali laughed bitterly: “Moreover, this incident made me realize that I need a loyal and powerful knight… Ah, a lord belonging to the White Valley… a knight of the Moccavay family!”

“My stance on the territory matter is neutral. However, securing a powerful knight is indeed a wise choice. Perhaps he can serve your interest in protecting the White Valley for you…”

Frank said: “In my name, I will summon this wandering knight, and also thank him for escorting you and your daughter here.”

“Thank you, my brother.”

Madame Monfali bowed.

“Now, let’s go to the hall together. Everyone is waiting!”

Frank beamed: “Our welcoming banquet wouldn’t be complete without the leading lady!”

In an inn.

At night.

Su Lu ‘extravagantly’ lit an oil lamp to read the books the innkeeper had painstakingly collected.

He had spent a dozen golden dragons for this.

In this era, knowledge represented wealth, a high amount of wealth!

He opened a collection of poems at this moment.

“Hmm… The text has a bit of a Gulam language style, but I can basically understand.”

Immersing himself in the books, only the rustling sound and the occasional crackle from the oil lamp’s wick could be heard.

Due to the use of parchment, which is generally quite thick, there wasn’t much information recorded in these books. Su Lu finished browsing through them before midnight.

“This continent was originally nameless, the ancestors of all the dukes came from various tribe clans of the plains, and were always in a state of chaos and war… gradually, they explored a system of nobility and duchies…”

“Until one day, a powerful figure riding a dragon appeared, rapidly subduing several major families, gaining the loyalty of various nobles, and uniting the entire continent in a war of blood and fire, establishing a kingdom.”

“He called himself Dragon the First, and established the Dragon Kingdom. This continent was also named the ‘Dragon’ continent… It’s already over a thousand years old by now. Over the long years, the kingdom has passed through dozens of generations, and powerful creatures like giant dragons have gradually disappeared…”

Recalling the glorious founding history recorded in an epic history book, Su Lu’s face took on a playful expression, he rolled his eyes and muttered: “You might as well collect a thousand swords and forge an iron throne…”

Of course, the truth of history is often buried in rumors and poems.

And he was best at revealing the truth from these fragments of information.

“This world, still has dragons? Real dragons, which reach the fifth level when they mature, are absolute legendary creatures…”

“To tame a dragon, was Dragon the First actually an occupational person… and also a fifth-level [Dragon Shepherd]?”

“Did the last Dawn of the Gods in this world happen over a thousand years ago?”

Su Lu felt he was getting closer to the truth.

“Unbelievable… The much maligned [Dragon Shepherd] profession of the Main World has achieved such great success in this world… Mostly thanks to the existence of giant dragons in this world… or rather… existence a thousand years ago.”

He was somewhat intrigued!

Giant Dragon! Fifth-level Legendary Beings!

Its blood, bones, dragon scales, dragon skin… all are incredibly valuable transcendent materials!

If the creature was still alive, Su Lu would definitely run as far away as possible and not look back until he reached the fifth level.

But if it was dead, it would be a different story.

That would mean a treasure, and… the Dragon family might have controlled more than one dragon!

“And there’s the fifth-level inheritance or higher… It’s worth a trip.”

Su Lu’s eyes glinted with anticipation.
