Chapter 675 - 364
As a result, on the second day, this army was completely exhausted. Most of the nobles were taken captive, and a small number of nobles took the initiative to surrender.
Ivita and her troupe returned to Viscount Josè’s territory with a battling and high-spirited army, causing the civilians in Viscount Josè’s territory to stop in their tracks and observe. The sight of their defeated army arranged in a long line, like a scenic view, astonish them greatly.
A cheer arose from many of the onlookers.
In the castle of Lord Josè’s territory, Housekeeper Joe Joseph came out to greet them. Upon seeing several old ministers of Earl Yisen Hanjian held captive, their armors on but heads low, depressed and defeated, he immediately asked Ivita, "Viscount, where is Earl Yisen Hanjian?"
Ivita succinctly replied, "Dead."
"What?" The aging Housekeeper Joe Joseph opened his mouth wide in shock. "You killed the Earl? He was the biggest feudal Lord around our island. This... this..."
Wilson laughed, "We did more than kill him, we also captured his army. And you should start calling her Earl now. She is now a vassal of the Holy Empire."
Joe Joseph, who was accustomed to a routine life, was wide-mouthed. He had never thought he would hear such news one day.
The new lord of Viscount Joseph, a territory nearly rendered dysfunctional due to corruption, had brought a great victory to the region.
Many thoughts crowded into Housekeeper Joe Joseph’s mind. "I am old, unable to keep up with your young minds. But given the current scenario, those big pirates and nobles are going to interfere with..."
"Troubles will pile up."
Ivita straightforwardly commanded, "Housekeeper, give me a connection chart of Earl Yisen Hanjian’s heirs immediately. I need to confirm the heirs to their territories after the Earl’s death."
