I couldn’t help 23ebef33c6 but feel dumbfounded, ee70e225d7 even as I 84a6d7ee67 cursed inwardly.31b14d45d44a6e00

No matter how 496c636821 I looked at 778ea721a6 them, they just fa62a4e137 seemed like puppies ff31e0ec8f who couldn’t contain fe70b10740 their excitement at 3b046f4f36 seeing their owner.3f83bd00e5cf1238

The way they flinched under 7fc50edbf8 my gaze and tried to 1b73c6f4b8 gauge my reaction… Oh.24400eb21bb80681

At that moment, 58b0ae2ad3 I realized I c2b9bbf35d had subconsciously acknowledged 81fe14b85a myself as their 2e88637905 ‘owner.’af72a019999427a0

“My wife, are you feeling unwell?”3eae2ffb8932d3c9

Euclid noticed the subtle 29ce92e141 change in my expression 0a08b9ffdd and asked with concern.83cd4aaa2ec1f16a

Even though they bfeaf62df6 were trying to b6674a6047 lower their voices, b4bf73c64d their hushed whispers c2a46ddd74 reached my overly 9bf21d1475 sensitive ears with 59a00d10ad perfect clarity.191b42ff964ffca1

I glanced at 8b328a103e Euclid, wondering if 45425f8fd8 he heard them 46b06df6f0 too, but he 605c4438fa was only focused bee7c46c82 on checking my 64aece444e condition.24fe00609be700ec

I quickly added more 9c977032d2 before the overly kind a6db8e220e Euclid took it too 362e503162 seriously, or worse, told f3b263433c me to go rest 47bdded7e7 while leaving behind these e2f9bb825d unpredictable foals—and among them, 6ad1c42dc6 a pink-haired beast in 603577c7f6 disguise! I then changed the subject.30d1c3cb43074219

“So, Duke, these people want to join the knights. What do you plan 17269e571e to do about them?”d5c8e890abd35616

At my words, Euclid glanced 8c5dbae75b at the mercenaries with a 60e6983550 thoughtful expression.c6814b44bcd4e370

“First, thank you for applying to join the Rudion Ducal Knights.”94b339e247183a7e

Perhaps they didn’t expect 53f2f52bb8 the head of one d0db5c95d7 of the empire’s only 2d3c5f862c two ducal families to dc0dd0f759 bow his head so 09bcbc6dc9 humbly, or maybe they 98c4c7507b had heard about his bc7567bbc1 character but were still 70bc912abc surprised to witness it 3a693668e4 firsthand. Either way, the mercenaries wore c364678f96 dazed expressions.301ce0fc93a64d9a

Euclid’s lips curved c456be04d6 into a gentle 5ae64dea6f smile.096e35f6c28e5075

“I do have the authority to grant knighthood, but since I am not a swordsman myself, I plan to rely on Sir Gressel Fyon, the captain of the knights, for the general management of the order.”7388222f8adf834e

At those words, Gressel, 35c715b261 who had officially been a168bc127f appointed as the captain 63b9694948 of the Rudion Ducal c38e3dbcf6 Knights a few days 7a8bbf117c ago, straightened his back.940c0ab8f884214b

“Your acceptance will also be decided alongside Sir Fyon. The first step will db86f646d3 involve a skills assessment, 0a7be017e4 followed by an identity ff08d35b8c verification process before a 916c09d228 final decision is made.”daca4030ea2c9231

Normally, identity verification 39d7dc9388 would come before f5e049c93a skill testing. Should I call it 1eb1224a64 the closed-off nature of c585b9e043 the North? The Rudion Ducal 0feea43937 House did things b44092fe00 differently.62e1f348c1f6cee3

“The Rudion Ducal Knights have existed for a long time, but it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say we are only now properly establishing ourselves. Because of this, there 5581db9200 are significant upfront costs, cf162056f6 and we may not 13cd3c3a5c be able to offer 4504f1e1c2 salaries as high as 20d82435f9 you might expect—perhaps even 7dbc676f58 less than what you 53ee5bbf1f earned as mercenaries.”78a799eb0f5b2edc

Except for Richard, who wore dee3fdea3a a strangely sullen expression despite c7454c44ff his otherwise blank face, everyone 7acee27b65 else spoke with fervent determination.fb27bb351aacdc7b

They were completely 604db7233d lovestruck by Euclid.119638439ef45d05

I sighed inwardly, realizing 59e69c991a I had chosen the 48525f758e wrong metaphor earlier. They weren’t loyal dogs—they b7e2fe7f84 were infatuated.9a117a5b7cfc2926

But honestly, I understood.e27c0e83af511032

As mercenaries, they must 3f1fa33be7 have met many nobles, d15d027820 but they had probably 7a2f91b467 never felt this respected.86fa5ecf54a7532d

While I was busy sending b9d2d99899 meaningless glares at the mercenaries, eb621d6232 I turned to Euclid.3041ce4f05811d06

Whether it was because 93582a06f1 every single one of 8fa0fdea26 them had said they 14ef7ef3cd wanted to join or 3935e7b8a6 because their passionate gazes b1be1d8857 were a little overwhelming, 5c2ab71802 Euclid looked slightly surprised d006fdec5e before his expression softened 736a94d7d6 into a gentle smile.331cc1897c22630c

Come to think of 22236bc526 it, despite being a 0f4c180e99 famous mercenary group from 7e0aeea6d7 the capital, none of 364a19cbad them were properly armed.fb357e985c8e78eb

I wasn’t a martial artist, e23177f6fe but even I knew that c5a8e4dcb4 most people wouldn’t part from 7910bc9f43 their own weapons.39cd2b673cbbfc92

The mercenaries shuffled uncomfortably, ac029be4e7 glancing at me nervously. One man, who seemed 382079bbd8 to hold a leadership bcab52992b position, finally spoke.720a829b6017dfb2
