Chapter 103 Baratheon, I Morn is back!

At Roselorien's signal, Lady Lily left the valley and moved away from the glow of the sacred tree.

Miss Reda continued to wander around the Baratheon land. Although no one paid attention to her, she was indeed far away from Miss Witch.

As for Moon, he was squatting on a small hill, examining the pocket watch in his hand.

Unlike the previous situations, this time he did not return to the same place where he disappeared.

For example, he disappeared on the grassland before, and if the weather was good, he could even see the Anras Fortress in the distance.

But now he was not only on a small hill, he also saw a familiar town at the foot of the hill.

Looking more closely, isn't this the town where Mr. Tilly and his family live?
Irregular returns, uncertain mechanisms.

It seems to be synchronized with the time of the time travelers, but it was probably just a coincidence last time. This time, not only did he come back early, but the time he went back was also different.

The most important thing is that this pocket watch cannot be thrown away.

This made Moon deeply wary of this pocket watch of unknown origin.

"Who are you? And what do you want to do?"

The pocket watch remained silent.

Moon had no choice but to shake his head and put away the pocket watch.

This thing is quite hard, and he always put it on his chest, thinking that it could be used as a heart-protection.

Even if someone shoots you from behind, at least there's still some hope.

As for this thing, it might be a bomb.

Come on, even if it really is a bomb, he can't get rid of it!
Might as well make the best use of it.

It has been almost six days since Moon went back, so six days have passed here as well.

Just looking for a place to ask what happened in the past few days.

You can also visit Mr. Tilly on the way.

As soon as he entered the town, Moon noticed that the flag of the Lion family had been completely replaced.

It turned into a giant red dragon flag representing the royal family.

It seems that Liu Gong is finished.

If this is the case with the Lion family at least, then the other five families are unlikely to be spared.

After searching casually, Moon found the nearest newspaper.

As he had expected when he left, the Northern Coalition ceded the Dafalo area.

After the handover was completed, they were stripped of their weapons and sent back.

They lost all the weapons they brought with them, paid a huge indemnity that would take hundreds of years to pay off, and ceded Defalo, which was their economic lifeline and mineral base.

The northern countries no longer pose any threat.

The other six dukes and the nobles who defected during the war also suffered misfortune.

Most of the nobles who defected were purged, and only a few managed to escape from Baratheon. But it didn't matter whether they escaped or not.

Because their territories and wealth were basically confiscated and nationalized.

As for the Six Dukes, nothing has happened so far, but they have lost their entire army and all territories except the main city.

Even the final main city had not been ceded in name only.

After all, the soldiers stationed there are no longer their private soldiers.

In addition, the old elk committed suicide, the old lion died on the toilet, and the remaining four were not dead, but were awaiting trial in the imperial capital.

According to the House of Representatives' decision, the worst that could happen is lifelong exile and the loss of the Six Dukes' status.

Although their main cities have not been clearly stated, it is obvious that once the trial results of the remaining four family heads come out, their main cities will be confiscated.

After all, even the garrison has been changed.

The Queen's gamble was a complete win.

But there was one thing that Morn felt was strange.

That is, the old lion was shot to death on the toilet by Tilly when the war started.

So who is the new head of their family?

With this doubt, Moon walked to Mr. Tilly's blacksmith shop.

In front of the blazing furnace, Morn did not find Tilly and his dwarf boss.

"Where are Mr. Tilly and the others?" The other dwarves saw that Morn had arrived and immediately asked:

"Some annoying guys are here. Tilly and our boss are in the backyard. Come on, I'll take you there."

"Would it be appropriate for me to go there?"

Upon hearing this, Moen couldn't help but glance at the stable next to him.

There were several fine horses tied inside, and they bore the mark of the Lion family.

"What's appropriate or inappropriate? Those guys will definitely be driven away immediately. Tilly boy hates them, and we don't like them either."

Amid the dwarves' cursing, Moon did see a few nobles walking out from the back with grim expressions on their faces.

Moon couldn't help but wrinkle his nose as he watched them leave. He smelled a faint smell of blood, so it shouldn't be that they had a conflict in the back.

Walking into the backyard, Moon knew the answer and also knew why there were only four dukes awaiting trial in the imperial capital.

Because the new lion's head was placed on a table in the yard.

His expression was very stunned and full of disbelief.

It seems that he must have experienced something very interesting before his death.

"What's going on here?"

Seeing that it was Moon, Tilly was very surprised and delighted. He really wanted to go up and hug Moon.

But he only took a few steps before he stopped again, knelt on one knee on the ground, bowed his head respectfully and said:
"It is an honor to meet you, my Lord."

This made Moen a little helpless:

"Mr. Tilly, there's no need for that. We are not in a subordinate relationship, we are just partners, and I think we can be friends."

Although Tilly stood up, he shook his head and said:

"My Lord, I am only a damned dwarf, you cannot be my friend. This concerns your reputation."

Moen knew better than to listen, for he had seen many similar people before.

In this world, the hierarchy is terrifyingly strict.

Moen changed the subject directly:
"So, what's going on?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he should be the new Duke of the Lion Family, right?"

The dwarf kicked the table, and the new lion's head swayed on it.

But it didn't fall.

"Yes, the new Duke of Lion, although he is also dead."

"why?"

Tilly looked at Moon, hesitated for a moment, and then said to Moon seriously:

"When they realized they had completely lost, the Lion family killed their new master and sent his head to me."

"My stupid eldest brother was very grateful to me for killing his father and allowing him to take the throne, so he did not pursue who was the killer. He just blocked the secret passage and stopped living in the Stone Castle."

"But not all the Lions are idiots. Someone from their family has found me. It's very simple. We just need to restore the position where the arrow was shot."

"That's my problem."

"But he didn't say that he chose double insurance, so now he has found me. He thinks that if I inherit the Lion Family, the Lion Family will continue to exist."

At the end, Tilly looked up at Morn and asked:

"My Lord, what do you want me to do?"

He didn't want to inherit the Lion family, but he knew that if he inherited the Lion family, he would be able to help Moon.

So, he gave the choice to Moon.

"Sir, I will absolutely obey your words."

After a moment of hesitation, Moon knew what he was planning. Without any hesitation, Moon patted Tilly on the shoulder and said:
"Mr. Tilly, you should decide your own life. You asked for my opinion, so this is my opinion."

Tilly said in disbelief:
"My Lord, I hate that place, so I won't go back. But if you..."

"Mr. Tilly, I told you that you are not my vassal. You should make your own choices in life."

Tilly and the dwarf both laughed, and then the dwarf kicked the new lion's head off the table:

"Then let them go to hell!"
