A moment later, still dressed in armor, Kara was led by Adams and reappeared in front of Leo Ray.
At this time, when the female Defense Army Battalion Commander from Mystara City saw Leo Ray sitting on the main throne.
She quickly bowed, her expression more respectful than before, saying, “I pay my respects to Milord!”
Undoubtedly, being able to have the City Lord give up his seat, the status of this young important figure was evident.
Moreover, when inside the barrier area,
The immense power demonstrated by this important figure had left a deep impression on her and could only be described as terrifying!
“Commander Kara, there’s no need for excessive courtesy.”
Raising his hand slightly, Leo Ray picked up the white porcelain cup next to him, first taking a sip of the fragrant tea that Orion Wolfe had just prepared.
Then he said, “I heard you once served under Holy Light General Joshua. How much do you know about this Kingdom General?”
“Milord, when General Joshua first became a battalion commander, I was already under her command.”
On the other side, Kara lowered her head again, responding unreservedly: “Over the years,
We have fought together from the Unfallen Fortress in the extreme north of Coldflame Kingdom to the Rainforest Fortress in the extreme south, and to the border battlefield with Saint Night Kingdom in the east, experiencing nearly a hundred battles.
It was not until General Joshua returned to the Royal Capital and was appointed Kingdom General that we were forced to part ways.
Because the high and mighty nobles in the Royal Capital obviously did not want too many close followers around a Kingdom General, as that would undoubtedly threaten their power.”
“I see.” Nodding slightly, Leo Ray gently put down the teacup in his hand and continued to listen.
“Milord, since General Joshua was originally a commoner and only adopted by a count’s family,
She later gained a noble title through outstanding military achievements, belonging to the new nobility of Coldflame.
Therefore, she has never been well-received by other Kingdom Generals with legitimate noble bloodlines, as well as the nobles of the Royal Capital.
Naturally, trust is even more impossible, and this is also the main reason why I was forced to leave the Royal Capital.”
Kara still maintained her bowing posture as she continued.
“I understand.” As Leo Ray gazed at the steaming teacup beside him, he revealed a thoughtful expression.
According to the information currently held by them,
The background of Holy Light General Joshua undoubtedly had similarities with Giant Axe General Burt from before, both being unwelcome in the Royal Capital.
No wonder these two would eventually choose to follow the weakest Princess Ariel.
Pondering this, Leo Ray hesitated for a moment before asking, “Commander Kara, what else do you know about Holy Light General Joshua?”
“Milord, as far as I know, General Joshua has an enemy in Coldflame Kingdom, but due to various reasons, General Joshua has been unable to kill this enemy personally.”
On the other side, Kara’s dignified face was filled with solemnity as she continued to respond.
“Oh? There’s such a thing?” Hearing this, a curious expression appeared on Leo Ray’s face, signaling for Kara to continue.
“Milord, this matter has to start with General Joshua’s background.”
At this time, Kara took a deep breath and said, “As I just mentioned,
General Joshua was initially an orphan who grew up in a monastery in Redarrow City.
Later, she was fortunate to be adopted by the childless Redarrow City Lord’s family, becoming an adopted daughter of the count’s family and receiving the family’s full support.
However, although the City Lord of Redarrow was a noble family of counts in Coldflame Kingdom,
The family had long fallen into decline, and coupled with the barren land of Redarrow City being just an obscure fishing town.
Therefore, in terms of wealth and strength, it was undoubtedly inferior compared to other nobles’ territories.”
However, General Joshua’s own cultivation talent was outstanding, making the name of Redarrow City well-known at the time.”
“So General Joshua came from Redarrow City?” Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but fall into contemplation.
He had learned some information about Redarrow City before.
This town was located southeast of Maron City, directly south of the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, and was a small town built beside a river.
And the river next to the small town was the downstream of the turbulent river between their territory in the forest and Cyan Town.
So, the distance from their territory was not very far.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
Kara, on the other side, continued with a melancholy look: “However, even such a simple small town was coveted by others with ulterior motives,
Bringing disaster upon the residents of Redarrow City and the adoptive family of General Joshua.”
“Commander Kara, are you referring to the bandit raid that took place five years ago?”
After some thought, Leo Ray suddenly looked enlightened,
Muttering to himself, “I remember hearing Xenia Blackwood from Maron City mention,
That five years ago, Redarrow City, about three days’ carriage ride away from Maron City, had suffered a large-scale bandit raid,
Resulting in the annihilation of the defending forces, including the City Lord’s family, before the Coldflame royal family reassigned the town to be under the jurisdiction of other nobles.
