Chapter 14 Love rivals meet
The flames of battle gradually subsided.

The setting sun was as red as blood, shining on Kalista's resolute yet slightly tired face.

Although her body seemed to be dragged to the ground by heavy chains, she suppressed her fatigue and held the spear tightly.

Then, he brought Ledros slowly to the group of common soldiers covered in dust and blood and sweat.

The two men walked up to each soldier one by one, expressed their condolences and praised their bravery in fighting on the battlefield.

Wherever he went, the soldiers couldn't help but reach out and pat Ledros on the shoulder to show their highest respect for him for beheading the enemy.

then.

An interesting scene appeared again.

Faced with such honor and praise, Ledros became increasingly uneasy. He looked at Kalista in panic, as if begging for her help.

However, Kalista smiled slyly, and she put one hand on his tiger shoulder without any hesitation, raising the spear in her hand high.

"Cheer, my soldiers!"

“For Ledros, for our hero who turned the tide and slew the king with one blow!”

Suddenly, the soldiers burst into thunderous cheers and applause, shouting Ledros' name.

Be caught off guard.

Ledros was shocked.

His face turned red instantly and he lowered his head shyly, not daring to look directly at the pairs of eyes around him that were full of respect and admiration.

Seeing this scene, Kalista felt happy.

A bright smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes revealed her unconcealable joy and pride.

however.

Just as the cheers gradually subsided, the aftermath echoed in the empty square.

Kalista was suddenly startled.

She captured a strange atmosphere.

His eyes glanced to the side, and not far behind him, a towering figure like a mountain was standing quietly.

He was a heavily armored knight wearing a purple and gold robe. The dazzling and gorgeous uniform matched his mighty body perfectly, and his mount was a giant steel warhorse.

This person is——

her fiancé.

Hecarim, the leader of the Iron Order.

An existence whose name is enough to intimidate people.

She immediately removed her hand from Ledros’s shoulder.

The joy of the previous moment disappeared, leaving only silence.

Ledros sensed this subtle change and turned to Hecarim without hesitation, bowing his head in respect.

The common soldiers behind him also lowered their heads in silence.

Hecarim is a man of honor.

He is handsome and noble.

He had dark, shoulder-length curly hair and light brown skin like a bronze statue that had gone through battle but was flawless. His deep green eyes were like the deep sea, charming yet dangerous.

He glanced at the soldiers with a sharp and arrogant look, ignoring their admiration and fear, and only paused for a moment to look at Ledros.

Finally, his eyes fixed on Kalista.

With the crisp sound of the golden armor colliding, Hecarim gracefully turned sideways and jumped off the iron horse.

The landing was silent but heart-shaking.

He slowly walked to Kalista and said in a calm tone, "Miss Kalista, would you please do me the honor of walking with me?"

"Explosion! Arrested on the spot!!"

"Hecarim is so damn calm. His fiancée was interacting intimately with Ledros in public, and he managed not to get mad?"

"No, no, no, for this kind of murderous demon, calmness is the most terrifying thing."

"But we still don't know what the relationship between the two is like?"

"Yeah, they said they were engaged, but it's obvious that Sister Ka was a political victim and was forced into it. Maybe they don't even know each other very well."

"I hope so. Anyway, Sister Ka absolutely cannot marry this cruel guy."

"But then again, it turns out that Sister Ka's general is just an ordinary army general. I thought the Knights were also under her jurisdiction." "That's normal. These noble Knights are similar to the Jinyiwei. They only obey the emperor. Of course, they are not under her jurisdiction."

"They are such thieves. They are elite knights, but they have to wait for Sister Ka to lead the common army to break through the enemy's formation before they go out. It's really embarrassing."

"Haha, the one who should be truly disgraced is their leader."

"What about Viego? You don't care about it. Are you worthy of your niece?"

The audience was now completely immersed in the story.

They would smile like aunties when watching the flirting and playing between Kalista and Ledros.

They also stood up for Callista regarding the disgusting behavior of the Royal Knights.

Now Hecarim invited Kalista to take a walk in front of Ledros.

Their hearts instantly rose to their throats.

It is said that when love rivals meet, they blush very much.

Hecarim chose to ignore it.

What about Ledros?
Since you are Kalista's soul guardian, you are her eternal follower of love.

Will he come forward to stop them? Will there be a conflict between the two, and thus create the seeds of hatred?
Can't help but.

Everyone perked up, waiting for Su Xinghe to write next.

【IV. Choice】

"Even if I were a princess or a general, I would have no control over my marriage."

"As a member of the royal family, political marriage is my destiny that I can never escape."

"Hecarim and his Iron Order play a vital role in securing Viego's throne."

"So, for the sake of national stability, I have no choice but to make sacrifices."

on the screen.

At the coronation ceremony of King Viego.

The magnificent palace hall was packed with nobles, priests, and leaders of knightly orders.

When the crown, symbolizing power and glory, was put back on Viego's head by the bishop.

The leaders of the knights came forward, knelt on one knee, and solemnly swore allegiance to the new king.

Their vows were like the sound of metal and stone colliding, resounding throughout the entire hall.

however.

Among these noble knights.

But the only thing missing is the famous and invincible Iron Regiment.

As the leader of the strongest knight order, Hecarim's absence undoubtedly cast a shadow on this grand coronation ceremony.

For a whole week, the whole nation wondered why Lord Hecarim was so reluctant to kneel.

The royal family suddenly released a bombshell news:
In order to consolidate the peace and unity of the kingdom, the former princess Kalista will enter into a sacred marriage contract with Hecarim, and the two war gods will join forces to protect the empire.

As soon as the news came out.

It immediately caused an uproar.

One dawn a week later.

Hecarim, wearing silver armor and holding a battle axe, appeared in the palace with the majesty and glory unique to the Iron Order.

He stared at the man on the throne, his deep eyes revealing determination and resolve.

Then, under the expectant gaze of everyone.

He knelt down and solemnly swore to the new king: The Iron Corps is willing to serve the Lord!
“I didn’t expect there was such a secret story when Viego took the throne.”

"Isn't this something Su Dada added temporarily? To make the engagement between Ka and Hecarim more convincing?"

"It doesn't matter. Hecarim is a villain anyway, so let him do whatever he wants."

"Su Dada wrote that he was born proud. He must have looked down on Viego, an incompetent king, so he didn't immediately pledge allegiance. From this point of view, it actually makes sense."

"This is getting interesting. Kamavia is really awesome. With three war gods, Kalista is a powerful team with any of them. I guess one of Ledros and Hecarim will definitely fall."

"Oh no! I suddenly remembered that the theme of this round is a love tragedy. Will Su Dada write Ledros to death?"

"No! Please, please don't hurt me, stupid guy. He is so nice, but he is just cutting my flesh with the knife."
