Suldak pushed open the door of the dormitory and saw Natasha dozing off at the desk. He tiptoed into the dormitory and found that the room was almost brand new. The floor had been mopped so that the true color of the paint could finally be seen, and the sheets had been changed.
I got a brand new one, and the old one has been washed and hung on the clothesline on the terrace. The snow on the terrace has also been swept clean by Natasha.
Natasha was wearing a thin nightgown, her head resting on her white arms and she was sleeping soundly on the desk. The room was not too cold. The sun shone on the table through the clean window, and her long golden braids glowed faintly.
Glossy, the light fell on her slender neck, and all the fine hairs were revealed,
With more people in the dormitory, it suddenly became full of life.
Suldak covered her body with a sweater, took out the magic scroll of "Fire Gathering", and boiled a pot of water in the room. The room suddenly became warm.
Natasha probably heard the sound of boiling water and suddenly woke up from her dream. She turned around and saw Suldak, with a trace of panic on her face. She patted the trembling bear breast through her pajamas.
He exhaled and said, "I was shocked. I thought someone suddenly broke in!"
“I told you to go out with me. Isn’t it boring to stay in the dormitory?” Suldak walked over and poured her a glass of hot water.
"Actually, it's okay. It's just that someone knocked on the door twice. I didn't know how to respond, so I just pretended that you weren't there." Natasha sat on a chair and whispered to Suldak.
She always looks cautious and blushes when she speaks. She has clear blue eyes. She probably works a lot. Her body is very healthy. Her diet has improved a lot in the past few months. She was originally a bit thin.
Her cheeks became plumper, she tightened the sweater she was wearing, looked at the heavy snow outside the window with some worry, and asked Suldak: "When can we return to Wall Village?"
"We have to wait for a while. The snow in the col is probably deeper now. If you are not used to living here, you can also stay in a hotel or rent a cabin outside!" Suldak said, holding her hand.
Her hands were not smooth and smooth, there were some calluses on the palms, and there were some frostbites on the backs of the hands. These were hands that had to work a lot.
“It’s good to live here, you don’t have to live outside!” Natasha said to Suldak with a blushing face, her body filled with this youthful and fiery atmosphere.
Suldak took advantage of the situation and hugged Natasha's slender and soft waist, and wanted to kiss Natasha's red lips. At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Lina's voice came from outside the door:
"Knight Surdak, are you back?"
Like a frightened rabbit, Natasha quickly ran away from Suldak's arms and hid on the chair next to the desk.
Suldak walked to the door a little helplessly and pushed it open.
Two young girl trainee knights next door stood at the door, curiously looking into the room. Lina's big eyes kept blinking and blinking, the fire of gossip in her eyes was almost burning out. There was a smile on her face, and her eyes were
He clearly said to Suldak: 'What? Why don't you introduce us to us?'
Surdak got out of the way of his body blocking the door frame, allowing Natasha's figure to appear in front of the two teenage neighbors. Lina and Nedra stared at the room with their eyes wide open as if they had discovered a new world.
of Natasha.
“My wife, Natasha!” Surdak said, looking at Natasha in the room.
Natasha's pretty face was slightly red, but she tried to raise her head, bravely looked at the two trainee knight girls, and nodded slightly.
"These two are neighbors next door to the dormitory. We usually get along pretty well." Suldak pointed at the lively Lina and the introverted Nedra and said, "This is Lina, and she is Ned.
pull."
"What does it mean to get along with each other? We obviously have a good relationship. Nedra and I have tutored Knight Surdak on the history of the empire before. Knight Surdak also taught us the skinning technique and let us practice it in the red pine forest.
We have gained a lot during the operation." Lina wrinkled her nose and said with great dissatisfaction.
Natasha stared at Lina and Nedra curiously, but didn't know how to communicate harmoniously with them, her cheeks turned red.
She thought to herself: If Rita was here, the atmosphere would not be cold. She was really useless.
In the end, Surdak drove away the two teenage neighbors who stayed in the room and refused to leave with the hint, "It's too late, we're going to have a rest."
In the silent night, there were no lights in the room. Surdak stood on the terrace with Natasha in his arms. From here, he could see the bustling night scene of the entire city of Helensa. The Mage Tower not far away was like a city that never sleeps.
The upper floors are all brightly lit, and when you look back to the other side, you can see half of the streets in the wealthy area, and those manors are also lit with gorgeous lights. This kind of night scene is for Natasha, who lives in a mountain village.
It is extremely shocking and surprising.
The two of them had a thick blanket wrapped around them. Surdak hugged Natasha tightly from behind, rested his chin on Natasha's shoulders, and whispered to her about the city.
Natasha's hand held Suldak's hand tightly. She tilted her head back and looked at Suldak's side face in ecstasy. Another face in her memory seemed to overlap with her eyes at this moment.
At the same time, she was in a trance.
"You have become a knight, and little Peter will also become a great knight in the future, right?" Natasha asked Suldak with a face full of hope.

Suldak nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course, this honor will be reserved for little Peter. I promised old Sheila. As long as he grows up, we will send him to the Knight Academy, just like
Lina, like Nedra and others, has learned some skills in this academy. If he wants to go to the plane battlefield and make meritorious deeds, it is best to join the heavy cavalry regiment after graduation."
Natasha felt a warm current pass through her heart, and her eye sockets became a little moist without realizing it.
Suldak narrowed his eyes and said softly: "If he doesn't want to fight on the front line, I can keep him in the guard camp for military service."
“Is it really possible?” Natasha’s eyes widened. She never thought that one day little Peter would be able to legally avoid performing military service on the battlefield.
Suldak pinched her soft cheek and said with a smile: "Now your husband is the Regional Sheriff of the Guard Camp in the Desolate Land of Paglos Mountain. He still has this ability!"
Natasha was a little excited and incoherent, and whispered: "I'm not saying there's anything wrong with going to the battlefield. All the young people in the village are going to the battlefield..."
"I know what you are worried about...I know." Suldak said this to comfort Natasha who was a little excited, but his eyes were looking at the bright starry sky above his head. Under the starlight bathing, his spirit
The sea continues to spread outward.
…
Riding horseback through a circular garden surrounded by red bricks, around the circular corridor in the garden, and found the alley paved with stone strips. In the alley, Suldak saw the city defense at the door of a low building.
Beibu' plaque, the Knights are on the second floor of this building.
He tied the horse at the door of the low building and climbed up the snow-covered stairs to the attic.
The snow here has not been cleaned yet, and it looks really deserted. I knocked on the door, and a lazy voice came from the room: "Come in!"
Entering the attic, Surdak saw the old knight leaning on a chair with his feet on the table, looking at the door with a sleepy look, and saw Surdak walking in wearing a suit of salamander leather armor.
, then he asked reluctantly: "If you don't study hard at the Knight Academy, what's the point of coming to the Knights?"
Unexpectedly, the old knight still remembered him. Surdak quickly stood up straight and handed the knight's certificate in a roll of parchment to the old knight.
The old knight unfolded the parchment scroll and saw the stamp of the City Hall. He looked up at Surdak again in surprise and said dumbly: "The knight certificate issued by the City Hall is really rare! It seems that you will be here soon.
It’s a big contribution.”
"Since the city hall has recognized your knighthood, there is no problem with the knights." The old knight put down his legs, turned around and took out a seal from the drawer, quickly stamped it next to it, and then stretched out his hand
He said to Surdak: "Give me your knight's badge, and the reserve on it can be removed."
The old knight took the knight's badge from Suldak, walked to the steel seal manual press next to the filing cabinet, put the badge in the mold and pressed it again, then removed the reserve symbol on the badge and replaced it with the official
Knight number.
It took almost no effort to complete these procedures.
The old knight solemnly put the knight's badge on Surdak's chest, and then the two of them performed the knight's salute. This moment was full of ceremony.
The old knight patted Surdak on the shoulder and told her: "In this case, according to the Green Empire Knight Decree, after you officially become a knight, you can own a piece of land to become your knight territory. Of course it will not be too big.
, but choose a place with fertile land that can feed your family."
After speaking, he took out a huge map of the Helensa area from the cabinet. Although this map was not as intuitive as the sand table in Marquis Bernard's office, the land on it had countless boundaries and frames drawn on it. Almost every piece of it was
The lands all have corresponding name signs. The old knight skillfully found some unclaimed lands among the dense signs, and inserted them on the map with pins with red flags, so that Surdak could make a more intuitive choice.
Suldak didn't even look at the unclaimed land surrounding Earl Hoyle's Manor and Baron Grenfell's Manor. Regardless of the old knight's hint, he pointed to the land in the Pussy Hill area on the map and asked the old knight: "
How much land can I claim here?"
The old knight was so angry that his beard almost stood up. He pointed at the desolate land on the map and said angrily: "You plan to choose the desolate land for your territory? You stupid boy, have you never experienced hardship? Do you know?
Not even grass grows on the land here!”
Suldak touched his nose in embarrassment and whispered to the old knight: "I am from the village of Wall outside the mountain pass."
After listening to Surdak's explanation, the old knight finally understood why Surdak chose this way, but he still earnestly persuaded him: "Oh, choosing a knight's collar is also very particular. The closer you are to the city of Helensa, the better you will get.
The knight's territory is smaller, but the land is relatively fertile."
He paused for a moment, took a sip, and then continued: "The farther away you are from the city of Halanza, the territory you can acquire will increase exponentially, but the poorer the land will be."
The old knight frowned and said: "If you want to choose land outside the mountain pass, the approval conditions at the city hall will be relatively relaxed, and the approved territory will be much larger, especially in these desolate lands outside the Paglos Pass.
It’s a place where no one goes, and I might even grant you a whole mountain.”
Seeing that Surdak was quite moved, he quickly reminded him: "But you have done some on-the-spot investigation. If you can find a place with lush water and grass outside the best mountain pass, it is best. If you can't find it, it is better to be honest."
Choose a piece of land in the red pine forest. The territory there is the most cost-effective. There are dense forests everywhere. You can first build a lumberyard in the territory and cut down the mature trees, so that you can get a settlement fee.
Then open up a small farm on the land where the trees were cut down, which is what many new civilian knights choose."
"If you were a noble knight, I wouldn't even tell you so much. They have a rich family and they don't care about this little territory at all. But you are a commoner. Go back and think about it. Once you are selected, you can't change it!"
The knight reminded again and again.
Suldak repeatedly said that he would think about it carefully and then left the Knights.
