Lucian sat silently on a chair beside the table, widened his eyes and twitched his throat... He almost pasted the word "I'm nervous" directly on his forehead.

Tightly pursed at the corners of his mouth, the absorbed gray pupil looked at him with two eyes, and his face was calm; But he knew it was just a habit of a dark haired wizard, a disguise to cover up the expression he might show when thinking.

The most important thing... If it's not something, he won't leave himself alone.

When it comes to magic or emptiness, he will talk to ain;

As far as military affairs and strategic arrangements are concerned, the people who stay should also be Eckert or the Earls of Byrne;

Now, what will he do to himself

"Lucian?"

"Hmm?!" the absent-minded grey pupil boy suddenly raised his head and looked serious: "Lord Loren... Please, please give orders!"

"As like as two peas," said Loren, frowning, and a solemn Road, which made him especially uncomfortable. Especially the face of a poker faced man, he always remembered Yuri Welch, the great grandfather of Allen.

"Lord Loren, I..."

"Have you ever regretted?"

"Regret?"

"No... it's not the word, but it has the same meaning." Loren sighed, "but you've always had the opportunity to return to the imperial Legion - the youngest flag leader in history, the brother of Archduke ellemans... Lucian, you had a great future."

"Either way, it's much better than just being a small guard."

"Lord Loren, I don't know what you mean, but... I've never regretted either." the gray pupil boy with bright eyes said firmly: "the most important thing is that I swore, and I swear to be loyal to you."

"For the people of El Mans, this reason is enough!"

Looking at his steadfast expression, Loren stopped talking.

For the friends around him, Loren always instinctively doesn't let his plans have anything to do with them... But it is often because he is a friend that he can absolutely trust only them.

"Thank you, Lucian." Lauren raised her eyes and became more dignified. "There's something I need you to do... Or only you can do."

Hearing this sentence, the grey pupil boy held his breath and straightened his chest.

The dark haired wizard took a deep breath and looked at him: "the Duke's lance guard."

Huh?

Lucian cast a pair of confused eyes.

"This army... What I want you to do is not just keep them fighting, or just manage them temporarily until they are restored." Loren said in a deep voice:

"What I want is that you should control every one of them, know their names and even their life history - I want you to be a captain who can be trusted and even loyal by them, as you were at duanjie mountain!"

The grey pupil boy was shocked!

"Yes, this' Duke guard 'is not just a temporary establishment." Loren got up, picked up the wine bottle at the table and filled the glass in front of them:

"At present, this is only a guard who is dissatisfied with even one flag regiment, but this is only temporary... When the wounded soldiers in the army gradually recover, I will slowly fill more troops, especially veterans who have experienced many battles."

"This guard will become my direct army - I don't have to obey anyone's orders except me!"

Slightly stunned, the grey pupil boy understood.

Although Loren has become Duke of Byrne, in fact, he does not have any army or Knights directly loyal to him... Including the Knights of red blood castle. Their real Lord is still the Countess of red blood castle, Charlotte Turin.

There is no direct fiefdom, which is always Loren's biggest weakness - which means that in any war, he must reach a consensus with the round table parliament, and even have to make some concessions to exchange their materials and troops.

Yes, nominally, all Knights of Byrne swear allegiance to the Duke of Byrne, but that's only nominally.

Only in this period of war can he concentrate the entire army of the principality, especially the cream of the essence. At the same time, take advantage of this opportunity to gradually turn part of "Byrne's army" into "Loren Turin's army".

And this army will be the last resort to maintain the Duke's authority.

Loren... This is giving himself his support.

"Lord Loren, I..."

"You'd better not rush to promise first, because it will be a hard job." Lauren chuckled and pushed the glass in front of him: "Byrne people are not Saxophone people. They can't be convinced by their fists alone."

"Besides, they are just a group of ordinary square infantry. What I want you to do is to train them into a real elite - not only heavy spears, big swords, but also two handed swordsmanship and projection weapons!"

"What I need is not a group of heavy knights, nor the Legion soldiers of the Empire..."

At this point, Loren suddenly hesitated.

Forget it, anyway, it's just a matter of time. Even if he doesn't say it, Lucian will understand sooner or later

"What I want you to train is a group of elite who can fight against ogres, trolls, ice werewolves and even more terrible monsters, and still don't lose the wind!"

Loren sighed and continued: "the current conditions are still relatively simple for the time being, but I will allocate more resources as soon as possible, especially those who have experience in fighting monsters."

"These people should be able to fight against ogres with spears, giant monsters with swords, and werewolves with halberds; their fighting methods must not be limited to normal means, and any power, even all kinds of alchemy potions and even magic spells, should become their fighting tools!"

Loren's expression was still calm, but the plain words made Lucian's eyes stare bigger and bigger, and even had to hold his breath at last.

The voice dispersed for a long time, and a gray pupil boy in a trance gradually woke up.

He found himself wrong, and very wrong.

"Lord Luo, Lord Loren... Did you notice anything?" Lucian swallowed and gasped. "Train a group of soldiers specialized in fighting monsters... Did I hear you right?"

"I really hope I'm wrong." looking at the other party's expression, Loren couldn't help smiling bitterly, but his expression was still determined:

"But I'd rather be wrong than unprepared - I didn't have the ability and consciousness before... But when we have to face these enemies, we can't even have room to fight back!"

This is not alarmist, but Loren's own experience;

In the battle of ancient wood forest, he even knew how "false" the victory was... As long as the ogres gathered again and poured out, they could flatten the whole big wall and kill all the elves;

In the north, every battle of the empire against the demon army was extremely tragic, and the so-called "demon" was not even a creature, but a doll fabricated by an evil god;

The number of sworn knights who preached with swords, the "mainstay" of the sakran empire against evil gods and demons, has been sharply reduced to a very low number because of the long years of peace.

Among them, the main force "sword of oath", up to now, there is only one guard Knight left; But they have an enemy who knows the church and even the Empire... Fascism.

No matter what his next plan is, it will be beyond his imagination.

"I see!"

While Loren was still distracted, Lucian suddenly looked up and said seriously, "I'll take care of them."

"I will ensure that they can become the most qualified demon hunters and remain absolutely loyal to you!"

When he said that, Loren didn't know what to say.

But... Demon hunter? It always sounds strange... It will inevitably recall some memories of "secondary two period" in Loren's previous life.

At that time, will there be a set of grass trials, a steel sword and a silver sword, the steel sword will kill the wicked and the silver sword will kill the demons?

Then again, there seems to be nothing wrong.

With their own magic array, the night watchman's advanced spell, alchemy potions and runes

Maybe I can really create a "demon hunter era"?
