From Deadbeat noble to Top Rank Swordsman
Chapter 9: Smoke and Steel on the Road South
The knock came before dawn.
Sharp. Two taps.
Leon opened the door already dressed, boots laced, blade strapped.
Yundar stood in the corridor holding a folded parchment and a grim expression. "Dress light. You're riding."
Leon nodded. No questions.
Yundar handed him the parchment. "Order from Lord Cedric. Supply check south of the ridge line. Escort detail."
Leon opened it. The seal was real.
"Why me?"
"You need the experience. And the roads need a sword that knows how to stay quiet."
Leon stepped out and followed.
The horses were already saddled in the lower yard.
