Chapter 734 - Magic Contract
Kolan was a rank 9 knight. Although that was not a high rank, he had been selected to join the royal guardian knights due to his young age.
However, the George family he was serving was banished after half a year. The royal guardian knights were all very confused, confused about the future of the duchy of Carmel and their own future.
Luckily Head Commander Hoover had stabilized this team of royal guardian knights. Kolan included.
After a few days, the Duchy of Thunder began to invade the palace. Kolan would never forget that day. When Head Commander Hoover was bravely fighting 2 other head commanders, Abel appeared.
He was holding an intermediate wizard in his hand like he a little chicken, and the other 2 Head Commanders were like helpless children in front of him.
After that day, Kolan received the news that a god like Abel was their new king.
Afterward, the training supply of the royal guardian knights was resumed. In fact, it was even better than before. Every training potion they received was at least a blue level.
Most importantly, they could obtain the royal secret knight techniques and even better potions through completing missions.
Kolan came from a small family. They only had one knight technique passed down through generations. He just wanted his family to live a better life by serving the royals. He never expected to come in contact with any royal secret knight techniques.
Every knight next to him was exploding with passion, ruthlessly accepting missions the palace gave out in exchange for royal secret knight techniques.
Although he knew that every knight who exchanged a secret technique would need to sign a contract promising they would keep the technique secret, he knew we would never betray the royals.
Those blue color knight potions he had were unattainable even for big noble knights. Also, the fact that he could exchange secret knight technique and even stronger potions, his potential had become limitless. All of these opportunities, as well as his admiration for his new king’s power, had made his loyalty to the king unmatchable.
Especially after the wine party the other day. He was the guard outside the hall. He saw the humble look on the king of the Duchy of Thunder’s face, the princes, lords, and even emperors from 3 big kingdoms.
He also saw dwarfs, elves, as well as the wizard union and blacksmith union. All of the most powerful groups in the Holy Continent had gathered.
He was confident that the Duchy of Carmel, under the leadership of this new king, his duchy would definitely become extremely powerful.
Kolan was only an ordinary knight out of the bunch, also an ordinary citizen of Bakong City. He was a good reflection of the ordinary in Bakong City.
Their duchy was now developing with immaculate speed under the guidance of Abel. Abel was only a legendary figure, but now he had become their king.
The weather was turning cold. Almost all crops had stopped growing. The slow rhythm of winter had begun.
However, this was not the case for the 3 castles locked within fences.
Their monthly harvest had made the farmers forget about winter. Even the depth of winter could not stop the power of the 3rd goddess fountain water.
A few super gigantic food inventory was built within Harry castle. In order to preserve food, Abel had exchanged a few giant protection circles from Liante City to protect them.
If his speculation was correct, the food inventory would soon become the most valuable resource in the Holy Continent.
It was the last day of the year. Abel received an invitation letter early in the morning. It was for Master Bennett.
The invitation stated that Master Bennett was invited to Angstrom City to accept his newly granted title and domain.
Abel held up this invitation letter. It was written with iron dust on a piece of leaf. He began to plan his trip to the elves.
He wanted to see Loraine the most. They have not seen each other for a very long time, and his yearning for her grew day by day.
Going to the elves to accept a domain as Master Bennett did not mean much to Abel. This was because Master Bennett was his elf identity. It wouldn’t bring any benefits to his family.
However, he could basically guess Duke Albert’s intention. He actually just wanted to give him a domain for him to test out if his potion could increase the water spirit fruit production.
“Burbridge, help me call Head Commander Hoover and Head Commander Bodley!” Abel turned his butler and said.
Recently, Bartoli had been busy getting the important nobles in Carmel’s Duchy to sign a contract.
Abel had also figured it out. With his current rank as a normal wizard, even if he never level up again, he would be able to live 800 more years, especially since he had been altered by a dragon core. According to the normal lifespan of a dragon, maybe he could live up to a few thousand years.
Therefore, these magic contracts had put a guarantee on the other party’s loyalty. This was the advantage of being a wizard king.
He would never let go of this advantage. The heart of a human was the hardest thing to grasp. As the Duchy of Carmel got richer and richer without his official surveillance, all kinds of greed would emerge.
A magic contract could solve this problem. Therefore no matter how much time he spent on training, the Duchy would still be in proper operation.
“Grandmaster Abel!” Head Commander Bodley and Head Commander Hoover arrived at Abel’s office, interrupting his train of thoughts.
“Take a seat!” Abel pointed at the chairs.
The 2 head commanders bowed and took a seat.
“The guardian knights were growing quite a bit recently. You two have done a great job!” Abel applauded.
“Grandmaster Abel, it was your training resources that won them over. Also, it was your greatness that made them pay you all the loyalty you deserve!” Head Commander Hoover said with a smile.
“The reason I called you today is to discuss something. You both heard about the agriculture contract, right?” Abel asked bluntly.
Of course, the two head commanders knew about the magic contract. Every big noble in Bakong City needed to sign a contract before they could enjoy some important benefit of the Duchy. If you rejected the contract, you could only do some insignificant jobs.
“Yes, we have heard about the magic contract!” the head commanders exchanged glances and nodded.
“Since we are friends, our relationship won’t be affected even if you don’t want to sign the contract. But I can only give you permission to access some important resources once you sign the contract. I hope you understand!” Abel lowered his voice.
Both head commanders knew Abel’s intentions. Since every important occupation in the Duchy had signed the contract, it seemed like they didn’t have a choice.
Although Abel had made it clear that they would still be friends even if they didn’t sign a contract, both head commanders didn’t want to drag down their own potential or their family’s potential because of a contract.
Head Commander Hoover was not young, but his family was extremely important to him. Abel had taken good care of his family because of him, but would Abel still do the same once he died and there were no longer any power knights in his family?
Head Commander Bodley was also in the same situation; he risked his life to help his family develop.
“Can I see the details of the contract?” Head Commander Hoover asked.
“I’ll sign it!” Head Commander Bodley said straight away.
Abel laughed and waved his hand, “Take a good look first and then decide. The reason why I want you two to sign a contract is because I want to keep some resources a secret!”
He then took out a loyalty contract and handed it to the 2 head commanders. Head Commander Hoover looked at it in detail and let out a breath of relief. Then he passed it to head Commander Bodley.
