Viscount Leon Castells soon met the leader of the reinforcements.
He was a very handsome young man. Although he was dressed as a mercenary, he carried an aristocratic elegance in his movements, without the rudeness of a mercenary at all.
The other party came to Charlotte and bowed gracefully:
"Beautiful Lord Earl, we meet again."
The voice is gentle and has a slight accent from the Fallen Star Kingdom.
Combined with the galley warships anchored in the bay, the old Viscount soon realized that the leader in front of him was probably a noble from the Fallen Star Kingdom.
So...are the reinforcements from Lord Earl the noble army from Falling Star Kingdom?
Viscount Len-Castle's heart moved slightly.
He couldn't help but glance at the young count, his eyes wandering before the young man and Charlotte.
With his sophisticated eyesight, he quickly observed more details.
The young man was very polite, and his gestures vaguely revealed respect for the young earl.
However, although respectful, it is not flattering.
This attitude is more like a deeper respect, rather than a status gap.
Thinking of some of the secrets he knew about the Castel family, Viscount Leon Castel quickly made some guesses:
Could it be that... the young people in front of me represent those fallen star nobles who have an old relationship with the former countess? Huh?
The more the old Viscount thought about it, the more he felt that this might be the case.
Yes, only in this way can we explain why the other party is pretending to be a mercenary.
After all, he is an old enemy who has been fighting against the Crescent Kingdom for decades. If he participates in Castel's war openly as part of the Fallen Star Nobles' army, it may cause a strong backlash from the entire Crescent Nobles.
On the contrary, it would be much more convenient if you join the battle as a mercenary.
The more Viscount Len-Castell thought about it, the more he felt that he had discovered the truth.
Of course, he didn't know that the reason why Earl Jurst showed respect to Charlotte was actually because he regarded Charlotte as the spokesperson of the True Ancestor in the world.
"Your Excellency, Captain, thank you for your support to Castel. Without your support, Castel would have been in danger this time."
Charlotte looked at Earl Yurst and smiled.
Yurst glanced at the nobles following Charlotte calmly and said with the same smile:
"The Nightwalker Mercenary Group is Castel's most loyal ally. If Castel is in trouble, of course we must provide full support."
Earl Jurst said.
After speaking, he pointed to the tent behind him:
"Lord Earl, we captured a prisoner with a special identity in the enemy camp last night. I think you may be interested."
"Oh? Prisoner?"
Charlotte suddenly became interested.
Viscount Leon-Castle couldn't help but look in the direction Yurst was pointing. After seeing the heavily guarded soldiers outside the tent, his eyelids suddenly jumped:
"Could it be...the third prince?"
Yurst glanced at him and shook his head:
"The whereabouts of the third prince of Xinyue are unknown. He probably escaped."
"However, the identities of these two prisoners may be more useful to Castel."
"Oh? You two?"
Charlotte's heart moved slightly and her face showed curiosity.
Even Viscount Leon Castells cast a doubtful glance at the tent behind him.
Following Count Jurst, everyone quickly entered the heavily guarded tent.
In the tent, two mercenaries in cloaks were guarding a young knight noble covered in blood. His face was pale, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be in a coma.
And when Viscount Leon Castell saw clearly the appearance of the young knight and the iconic purple lion emblem on his chest, he suddenly lost his voice and said:
"Earl Lint?!"
"Sir Len Castel, do you know him?"
Charlotte asked curiously.
The old Viscount nodded and replied respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Earl, I attended a banquet held by Duke Violet a few years ago and met him once."
"He is the eldest son of Duke Violet and the first heir to the Duke of Violet. He is also an extraordinary knight whose strength has reached the second level of Silver Moon."
Speaking of this, the old viscount couldn't help but said:
"My lord, this is indeed a very useful prisoner for Castel!"
"He is the most valued heir of Duke Violet. He alone is enough to rival those captured Violet soldiers, enough to get us a sky-high ransom! Or even...territory!"
After listening to the old Viscount's words, Charlotte's expression became clear, and her eyes brightened up when she looked at Count Lint, as if she was looking at a bunch of human-shaped Quintana.
However, her eyes quickly scanned the tent and continued to ask:
"Your Excellency, Captain, there is only one person here, where is the other prisoner?"
"Your Majesty, the other prisoner's mental state is not very good, so he was placed alone in the innermost room."
Yurst said.
After speaking, he looked at the large group of nobles surrounding Charlotte and said:
"It's best...don't go in with so many people."
Charlotte nodded slightly and glanced around:
"The others stay, Mr. Leon Castel and Mr. Vincent follow me."
Viscount Len-Castell and Vincent Romain-Four responded respectfully, and followed Charlotte into the innermost compartment of the tent under the leadership of Yurst.
There was a simple bed in the compartment, but there was no one on the bed, only the messy quilt.
In the corner, a thinly dressed woman was curled up into a ball.
After seeing everyone coming in, she hurriedly hid behind the bed like a frightened little animal.
"Lady Eleanor?"
After seeing the woman's appearance clearly, Charlotte looked surprised.
Viscount Len Castel and Vincent could not help but exclaim:
"Eleanor? Hiss... Duchess of Bold?!"
After realizing the woman's identity, the eyes of the two nobles lit up almost at the same time.
Without him, this is the lord of Bold.
A true lord!
The reason why the third prince Philip was able to wage war against Castel was not because of his status as a royal prince, but because of his status as the husband of the Duchess of Bold.
All his power in Boulder comes from his wife!
In other words, since even the Duchess of Boulder has been made a prisoner, this war... can be declared over.
The old Viscount and Vincent were in high spirits, but Charlotte noticed the vague scars and bruises on each other's bodies.
She frowned slightly:
"Your Excellency, Captain, what are the injuries on her body?"
Earl Yurst shook his head:
"The injuries on her body were already there when we found her. She must have been abused for a long time."
