The plains were quiet and peaceful under the night, with the faint moonlight covering the earth, and the gentle breeze not disturbing a grain of sand. From a distance, it looked like a natural and peaceful scene.

"Rumble..."

A thousand-man cavalry troop galloped past, disturbing the peace.

In front of the cavalry team, Gianna, who had been running continuously for a day, looked focused and seemed to be thinking about something, while Yale and Victor followed closely behind her.

"Da da da……"

The sound of rapid horse hooves came from a distance, and a five-man light cavalry team approached the cavalry team from the flank. Jaina and others turned their heads to look.

"Your Highness!"

After the five war horses approached, Jet, the deputy commander of the Rockmond Heavy Cavalry in front of the five men, solemnly reported: "As expected by His Highness, Commander Carl led the remaining 8,000 Rockmond Heavy Cavalry to retreat to the south.

However, Aure's nearly 15,000 remnants did not pursue him, and even the most intact light cavalry was gathered around him!"

Nodding seriously, Jaina finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her guess was indeed correct.

According to Gianna, Ole was stunned...

In front of Rockmond's cavalry, the 20,000 elites he brought seemed to have no effect, but this was just an appearance, because it was Karl who was defeated in the end.

Without the addition of personnel, the assistance of auxiliary troops, and the replacement of horses, the heavy cavalry, which had been running for a day and a night, could not defeat Aure.

But Karl chose to attack forcefully when he was at a disadvantage. The effects of the two attacks completely shocked O'Rei, so much so that he didn't dare to let go and pursue Karl when he retreated.

Of course, there was another factor that was also an important reason why Ole gave up the pursuit.

That was Jie Yin. Jie Yin, who was watching eagerly from the side, was the main factor in Ole's restraint of the remaining troops. Being at the door of someone else's house and suffering a heavy blow, he was far more afraid of Jie Yin than Karl.

After Jett reported the situation, he silently followed Jaina. Jaina thought for a while, but suddenly stopped the running cavalry team.

Two thousand war horses stopped in unison, their heavy breathing and the snorting of the war horses merged into one. Everyone looked at Jaina, but she tilted her head and looked at Victor beside her.

"Mr. Victor, I have something important to ask you!"

The serious expression made Victor become serious, because asking Jaina to say please must be no small matter.

"Take the cavalry team back to Maint and help me take care of it!"

There were only a few words in the simple instructions, but the goblin merchant was stunned. After thinking carefully for a while, he suddenly smiled...

"Your Highness Jaina, you really know how to throw away the burden..."

The goblin's mind was far superior to that of others in the group. After understanding Jaina's intention, Victor nodded vigorously, but the deputy leader Jett was very puzzled by Jaina's decision.

"Your Highness...won't you come back with us? Captain Karl handed you the power sword, which means he wants you to take charge of Maint..."

Jaina looked at Jet with a smile and shook her head gently, "I will definitely go to Maint Province, which will be the foundation for my restoration of the country, but now I have more important things to do.

And your task is to bring the cavalry back to Maint, help the city defend the city, and wait for my return. This is an order and my entrustment!"

…

…

Two thousand Qingqi rode all the way north, heading towards the Main Province along the original route. However, looking at the dust, Yale, Mina and others were puzzled.

"Karl will not return to Maint Province. The moment he handed the sword to me, I understood his thoughts."

Looking at the cavalry's back, Jaina's voice came slowly.

"He needs to give way for me to take control of Maint Province, so he cannot go back until I completely dominate Maint and Rockmond...

An entrenched power holder is the biggest obstacle to his successor, and he understands this deeply...

You can easily hand over the power of a province to me, this guy Karl...

He is loyal to Ogilia, and even more loyal to Her Royal Highness the Princess..."

The soft voice seemed to be whispering, and Gianna's words seemed more like she was speaking to herself, but Yale seemed to understand the meaning.

"What's next, Your Highness, what are our plans?"

Mina slowly walked to her side and asked curiously.

"Not us, Miss Mina!

Your mission is completed, now it's time to return to Augura City..." Jaina smiled happily and suddenly patted Mina on the shoulder, but her words stunned the three of them.

"Your Highness, you know, we are not..." Mina explained anxiously, as if she felt that Jaina had misunderstood her intention, but Jaina interrupted her.

"I know that we are friends, friends who have experienced life and death. So I can't let you follow me anymore...

"Your mission is the Adventurer's Guild. Spread the news that Princess Jaina is still alive, and spread the news about the smiling Jaina in the Grand Canyon. In addition, you must help me find out about the White Night Empire. I want to know their intentions.

…”

With a serious expression and an attitude that left no room for doubt, Jaina's words made the three of Mina's hearts sink.

Although it is a task, it is not difficult for them, and Jaina does this just to protect them who are not strong enough...

The three of them looked at each other and nodded vigorously, but the helplessness and self-blame in their eyes could no longer be concealed...

"Your Highness! We will definitely meet again, when I become strong enough to dedicate my strength to you!"

The blond short-haired Otto suddenly turned around after leaving a word and walked in the direction of Ogu Techeng. Holden, who was not good at words, took a meaningful look at Gianna and followed Mina after Otto...

…

…

…

The breeze blew across the grassland, causing waves on the ground. A rising sun poked its head out on the horizon, making the earth orange-red. Under the rising sun, the figures of Gianna and Yale looked a little depressed...

It seemed like I was back to the time I had just escaped from the royal city, with a princess, a knight, two horses, an almost slim road ahead, and unpredictable dangers...

"Your Highness... Maint Province?"

After feeling depressed for a long time, Yale on the black horse finally spoke.

"I will go, but not now!"

Understanding Yale's doubts, Gianna smiled softly, but her smile was full of helplessness.

"Karl is loyal, loyal, bloody and affectionate!

But he has no brain..."

She curled her lips, as if she was very dissatisfied with the Duke who had saved her not long ago.

"For the princess and Ogilia, he gave me the entire Main Province as the cornerstone. I really admire his magnanimity.

But he was too impatient...

Maybe the death of the princess made him dizzy, or maybe he had other plans, but he always ignored one thing...

I am still too young, and both my qualifications and experience are too shallow..."

Yale analyzed Gianna's words carefully, and he seemed to realize that something was wrong.

"It's prestige and heritage, Yale!" Without giving Yale time to think about it, Gianna turned her head and complained angrily: "Let a princess who is only seventeen years old, has made no achievements, and has lost her support, take the former king's

Token to directly take over Mainte?

Please, please stop making trouble..."

She tilted her head and shrugged helplessly.

"Even a weakling named Jie Yin has such an attitude towards me, not to mention a province of Maint that has lost its leader, and a group of Rockmond Cavalry Regiment that is full of hormones and has lost its commander...

They are not something that a weak princess and a light magician can control.
