Chapter 8

As the last royal guard soldier was taken down, the whole hall suddenly became silent, and everyone turned their eyes to gray standing above.

"What are you doing so seriously? Relax. It's all a small problem. Trust me, everyone will be fine. On the contrary, everyone will return with a full load!" Greyhound didn't care about the blood in the hall and said with a smile.

"Gray, what the hell do you want to do?" The king's face was ugly. He didn't expect that he had given him enough compensation. Why wasn't he satisfied? Is human nature so greedy that it can never be satisfied?

"Did your majesty forget? As I said, as an aristocrat, keeping promises is our basic principle. I'm helping your majesty save the last honor that the king deserves. You should thank me! " Gray said solemnly, as if he was really a good comrade who was wholehearted and helpful for others.

"Felia has been caught by the dragon for ten years. She's a little sensitive and normal in her heart. However, as a father, I won't let her act recklessly. I've decided that your wedding date will be the day after tomorrow, okay?"

Although he wanted to tear gray apart, considering the blade on his neck and his unconscious wife and daughter, his majesty tried to make his tone gentle.

"No, although the Royal Highness is very beautiful, but after all, it is not sweet. I have always respected the free will of the people, and I respect the freedom of marriage. The majesty of the king does not need to impose any difficulties on her. Let the princess choose the right person herself. As for me, your majesty will compensate me for the reward I originally wanted to give to me, and I will be satisfied. I am not greedy."

Gray said with a gentle smile. I look very talkative and satisfied. Anyone who sees this smile will feel from the bottom of his heart that he is a sunshine big brother next door, especially kind and approachable.

His majesty used to think so, but now he plans to spit on his former self and kick him hard. He has no eyes and has lived in the belly of a dog for decades.

"What do you think of me making you Marquis of Luokai city?" Your majesty, be careful.

Gray shook his head. If the other party gave a city at the beginning, he might really agree. After all, the Marquis is the highest nobleman in the Kingdom except the king, and he doesn't have to marry the noble princess.

But who let the king be stingy at the beginning and only willing to send him to two small towns? He also had no choice but to defend his legitimate rights and interests by himself.

You know, the two towns and the attached villages have at most tens of thousands of people, and they can produce about 500 gold coins a year, which is much worse than a city with five or six towns.

Perhaps in other people's eyes, from the Viscount to the count is enough glory, but gray doesn't think so. He works hard for the throne promised by the king. Compared with the count, the throne of the king is much worse than the distance between the viscount and the count.

Gray's rational analysis shows that the great gap between expectation and reality is the direct cause of this tragedy.

When things get to this point, it's meaningless for the king to give the position of marquis again. Everyone has torn their faces. Do you expect to coexist peacefully in the future?

Gray knew very well that as long as he accepted the Marquis of Luokai city now, before he arrived in Luokai city to officially accept it, the six cities allied forces would directly teach him what dumplings are and teach him what dumplings are.

How many people are there in a city?

Gray's Viscount leader is a small village, with a number of about 1000, and the number of soldiers is about 40. There are five or six villages in a town and five or six towns in a city, and at least seven towns belong to the king.

Of course, this is not a simple superposition, but even so, there are at least 1000 soldiers in a city, such as Wangdu, 500 royal guards, 1500 royal guards, directly 2000, and more than a dozen small towns and villages around the city.

Even if it is not completely transferred, it is also a huge number. Even if he can turn into a fire dragon and fly away, others will definitely have no vitality.

Gray is not naive, so he can't promise. In this case, he must go to the last step.

Gray can only do it himself if he doesn't give up when he sees the king. After all, he can't say too much. It will appear that others have low IQ and hurt others. He's not the kind of person who ignores others' feelings.

So gray shook his head slightly and held out his hand!

Everyone was worried. Some were afraid that gray was finally going to fight the king. The country was going to change. Some were excited that gray was finally going to fight. Their time had come.

The old king looked at Gray's hand and grabbed it at himself. For a moment, there was a trace of peace in addition to fear. "Gray, let go of felia and the queen. They can't do anything to you. You are a strong man and shouldn't bully women!"

"What are you talking about? Don't talk so much! " Gray looked puzzled, took the crown from the king's head, wiped it on his head with his sleeve, turned his head and looked at the nobles present, "I, your king, who has any objection?"

"King!" All the men and horses belonging to gray clenched their right hands on their chest, knelt on one knee and shouted excitedly.

Several of the other nobles knelt down, but most of them were still looking at each other and didn't know whether to kneel or not.

Gray sneered from the bottom of his heart. These people don't know whether to kneel or not. That's because they didn't fight them. Later, they will know whether to kneel or not.

Raise your hand to give these people a long memory. Oh, no, give them some precious life experience.

At this time, the king of the old country who became a decoration moved.

The old king grew up slowly and took a step aside. Just when gray thought he was going to escape and was ready to start, the old king clenched his right hand on his chest, slowly bent his knees, moved his dry lips, and spit out a dry and clear word, "my king!"

After doing this, the old king reached out his hand and made an invitation to the throne.

Gray took a deep look at the old king and strode to the throne to sit down.

The old king did not get up, but continued: "my king, I offer my loyalty to you. I swear with the sword in my hand that I will guard my king's honor and defend my king's rights!"

The nobles looked at each other. Whether they wanted it or not, even the king of the old country gave in. What qualifications did they have to disagree with gray.

All the nobles knelt down and saluted, recognized gray as their king and swore allegiance.

"I swear by the sword in my hand that whoever is loyal to me, his honor is connected with me, and his family, rights and property will be protected. No one can invade without reason!"

After the simple oath, gray nodded and asked them all to get up.

No matter whether you are really convinced or not, he just needs your attitude now, and when your attitude reaches the back, it's easy to say.

Glancing at these people lightly, gray looked at the soldiers surrounded by the noble, "Princess filia is weak and the ground is very cold. Go and help her up!"

The two soldiers quickly walked over to help her up, but the other party was still in a coma. They didn't know where to put it?

Gray shook his head and pointed to the Queen's faint throne. The throne was wide enough to accommodate two people, although it was a little crowded.

"We are all aristocrats, with noble quality and noble glory. I believe you swear allegiance to me from the bottom of your heart. I hope you can defend your glory and not be contaminated by despicable acts. For anyone who violates his oath, I will destroy his home, take away his wealth and demote his family as slaves, Children and grandchildren cannot be free! "

A warning may not help much, but it is necessary. Gray doesn't intend to restrict anyone by this area. His biggest reliance is the gun and sword in his hand. As long as he can afford weapons and dare to betray, the end will be worse than he said.

"We offer our loyalty to his majesty and will never betray him again!"

"I believe in your qualities. However, when your majesty passes on the throne to me, some petty criminals will take the opportunity to cause trouble. The Kingdom needs everyone's strength to maintain stability. Therefore, I hope everyone can manage their territory well."

"Don't worry, your majesty. We will obey your Majesty's orders and maintain the stability of the territory. There will never be any trouble!"

Many people were shocked. They thought that gray would beat them to show his authority by this improper means to ascend the throne, or take some measures to consolidate the throne. They settled the matter first. Unexpectedly, he would let them go back at this time.

"Sure enough, it's still too young!" Some people secretly rejoice, decide to go back and expose his atrocities, and unite all parties to overthrow him. At that time, maybe they have a chance to be king.
