After taking the two corpses back to the castle, Heath found out that the two Apprentice Knights he had killed were quite famous in the White Wolf Castle. They were expected to become Knights within one or two years.
At this moment, Graystone Castle was in an uproar.
“Clive the Butcher! Barton the Dwarf! Heath killed them both by himself!”
“My god, isn't this too much? Didn't I hear that both of them are about to become Knights?”
The Apprentice Knights were shocked, including Baron Carter and Knight Thor, who was also stunned for a while.
Because he was worried that his rapid advancement would lead to unnecessary trouble, Heath did not tell anyone about his advancement to a Knight. Until now, everyone still thought that he was just an Apprentice Knight.
Baron Carter came back to his senses and said in surprise, “This was all done by you alone? Heath?”
Heath nodded. “They underestimated the enemy too much..”
Baron Carter said, “Even if the enemy's arrogance left a flaw, you were able to defeat them in one versus two. This also shows your strength.”
After a pause, he said with certainty, “I think your strength is not far from that of a Knight. Advancing in a year is almost certain, or even faster.”
“Wow!”
“Advancing to a Knight within a year, then… Then doesn't that mean that he advanced to a Knight within two years of training?”
“Hiss… Advancing to a Knight within two years of training, such a genius is not unheard of in the entire Rodin Kingdom, right?”

“The effect of the Golden Blood is really too terrifying…”
The crowd was once again in an uproar.
Baron Carter looked at Heath, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a small gap on Heath's crossguard sword. He could not help but ask, “Is your crossguard sword broken?”
Heath said, “It was left behind during the battle.”
The strength of the double-edged ax was indeed extraordinary. Although he could gain the upper hand in a head-on confrontation, the weapon was somewhat unable to withstand it.
Baron Carter immediately took off the crossguard sword on his body and handed it over. “This Black Dragon will belong to you from now on.”

The Apprentice Knights were all envious.
Baron Carter's Black Dragon Sword was tailor-made for Baron Carter by a very famous blacksmith master in River Valley. It was also made of the best material, fine steel. It had followed Baron Carter in battle for many years and was very famous as a treasured sword.

Heath did not stand on ceremony. He took the cross-shaped sword and expressed his gratitude.
The Baron nodded and said, “No need to stand on ceremony. Warriors who have defended the dignity and safety of Graystone Castle should be rewarded. This is what you deserve, child.”
After a pause, he continued, “Alright, everyone, go back to training. I have something to discuss with Knight Thor.”
The Apprentice Knights left one after another.
After the crowd dispersed, Baron Carter's face darkened.
He looked at the two corpses on the ground and sneered, “These dead dogs of the White Wolf Castle are really persistent. It seems that it's impossible to make peace with them.”
This was not the first time such a situation had happened today.
Recently, the towns under the jurisdiction of Graystone Castle had been repeatedly attacked by the people of the White Wolf Castle. Previously, a little girl had accidentally stepped into the territory of the White Wolf Castle while picking mushrooms. She had been captured and killed by them in an extremely cruel way.
A little girl who was only 12 years old was abused by more than a dozen men. In the end, she was cooked in a pot and sent to Graystone Castle.

Knight Thor also said angrily, “They are provoking us! Sir Baron, why don't I bring two people to White Wolf Town to kill them?”
The Baron shook his head, “No.”
There was only one town under the jurisdiction of White Wolf Castle, so it was easy to defend. There were three towns under the jurisdiction of Graystone Castle, so it was impossible to guard against them. In the end, he would only be at a disadvantage if they took revenge on each other.
The Baron said, “What they want is a war. In that case, I'll give them a war!”

“Arrange for someone to send a message to Hall and Blue. Also, get the Apprentice Knights to prepare.”
Hall and Blue were the other two Knights under the Baron. They usually stayed in the farmhouse given by the Baron and he would only summon them into the castle when there was a serious situation.

After a pause, he said decisively, “Send a Letter of Challenge!”

…
Half a month later, on the Ruling Plains.
The Ruling Plains was a plain in the middle of River Valley. Whenever there was an irreconcilable conflict between the two families in River Valley, they would lead the family Knights to resolve it through war here.
At this moment, two square formations had been set up on the Ruling Plains.
On the left side were people from Graystone Castle, led by Baron Carter and his three Knights, followed by dozens of Apprentice Knights, and then hundreds of civilians and farmers.

The team from White Wolf Castle was standing on the opposite side. They obviously had fewer people than those from Graystone Castle, but they could not be careless because they had a total of five Knights.
Baron Carter sneered. “Fergus, that sly fox. He's everywhere. I was wondering why these little dogs from White Wolf Castle suddenly had the courage to accept my challenge. It really is Fergus, that old fox!”
There were only three Knights from White Wolf Castle, and the two extra Knights were from another River Valley noble, the Fergus family.
The two extra Knights immediately caused a commotion in Graystone Castle.
Kayla, who was standing next to Heath, cursed, “Those shameless b*stards of the Bain family even asked for outside help in the Holy War!”

“Is White Wolf Castle selling all the women to the Fergus family? How could they be so eager to help them? They even brought out the only two Knights!”
“B*stard!”
The wars in this world were played with high-end combat power. An official Knight could already decide the outcome of a war on such a scale.
In the crowd, Heath held his cross sword and frowned.
He was not interested in war or glory, but as an Apprentice Knight of Graystone Castle, he had to step forward. Otherwise, there would be no place for him in the entire River Valley and even the entire Rodin Kingdom.
‘First, I need to ensure my own safety. Then, I'll see if I can get a head…' Heath decided silently. Although Baron Carter treated him well, it was not enough for him to work for him.

On the Ruling Plains, more people came one after another.
However, there were not many of them. Each group consisted of about three to ten people. They did not have any intention of participating in the war. Instead, they stood on one side of the plains.
These were the nobles of River Valley. They were here to witness the war.
Soon, the agreed time for the war arrived at noon.
The Baron walked toward the center of the formation. The Lord of White Wolf Castle also walked over. An elder noble also walked out from the noble group.
This was the final mediation.
If the mediation was successful, the war could be avoided. Otherwise, it would be using the sword to speak.
And obviously, the mediation this time was a failure.
The Baron walked back to the camp. He said to everyone in disbelief, “These b*stards of the Bain family are prepared not to pay a single copper coin for Ali's death. They also require us to offer 15 virgins from each town. In addition, their Knights have to come to the town once a month to have fun.”

After a pause, he said angrily, “Tell me, what is your answer?”
Everyone's eyes turned red. “Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Baron Carter pulled out his cross sword and raised it high. He said angrily, “It's time to defend our dignity. Brothers of Graystone Territory, follow me!”
