CHAPTER 140: CHAPTER 140- SNOWPOINT CITY

There was no need to even think. Reinhardt nodded his head.

"A knight does not go back on his word. If it’s anything I can do, I will not hesitate".

"Then..."

Smooch... she tiptoed and planted a deep kiss on his lips.

"Can I come visit you in the Snowpoint City from time to time?"

She made her wish, and Reinhardt stood there a little stunned. That was all? Since he gave her his word, he was mentally prepared to do anything. It was not hubris; it was just confidence that naturally stemmed from power.

However, instead of asking him for something difficult, all she asked was this. To visit him in the Snowpoint City from time to time.

Be that may, if that was her wish, then so be it. Reinhardt nodded and left using his [Aetherial Stride] skill.

"A knight does not go back on his word, huh. Fufu... I think I understand him better now" A beautiful smile bloomed on her face.

After leaving the orchid mansion, he first headed for the Temple of Light headquarters. The process to move their base was already going on in full swing.

Ryley had already sent a few knights there to create some form of law and order before the entire knight squad arrived. What’s more, thanks to the funds the Queen sent, they had enough budget to take care of the city for a while.

Now all that was needed was for him to give the command to relocate.

After finishing any documents that were piling up for him, it was already evening. The sun set in the distance, casting a crimson glow over the world. After consulting with his acting vice commander, he had decided that they would move two days later.

Packing, transportation, and other preparation took time. What’s more, to carry the things of an order comprising of more than a hundred members, a large convoy of carriages was needed.

The merchant group that was called for the task also needed time to prepare. Reinhardt stretched his body, feeling the evening breeze brushing past his body.

Life in Lumiose City was very pleasant and easy; he had no complaint. However, all of it was going to change once they arrived at the Snowpoint City.

.

Back inside the mansion, the four of them gathered for dinner. Unlike yesterday, the atmosphere was much better.

"It appears that you two talked it out," Raymond spoke. He looked at Verdia, who appeared to be quite lively and glowing.

Usually, she gave off a dignified, noble woman aura all the time, making it hard for others to easily relax around her. However, for some reason today, she had that bouncy and sweet air to her.

"Un" the latter nodded her head, working her cutlery. Right now, even the small gesture she made carried a natural sexiness and grace to it.

Raymond was mesmerised by the beauty for a second.

"I see, if you talked it out, then it’s good. We are a family after all, whether it’s joy or sorrow, we should always talk it out with each other. That’s how our bond becomes stronger. I am happy that you two have made up."

The duke smiled. He then remembered something and couldn’t help but ask, "I heard it from the servants, but are you training one of your skills recently, son?"

Reinhardt arched his brows. Training his skill? What was he talking about?

"You don’t go out from the door anymore. The servants are discussing that you are training your skill. Someone saw you appearing on the training field or the garden out of nowhere the other day".

So that was the reason, Reinhardt did use his movement skill [Aetherial Stride] to teleport at those places, and each time he used those skills, he was... his eyes inadvertently moved towards Verdia.

Coincidentally, she was also looking at him, her face flushed red.

"Indeed, I am using a new movement skill of mine".

It was not all a lie though. He was indeed using the movement skill whenever possible to get more used to it when not in battle. During battle, he had the [Divine Remembrance] trait with him, which allowed him to be able to use any skill or technique at their best.

However, that option wasn’t available when he was out of battle. It was also for this reason that he had physically learn how to control his strength.

Raymond nodded his head, completely clueless about the affair or the amorous look his son and his wife were giving each other.

"So, when will you move?"

"Two days from now. However, Ra... father will the estate and Lumiose City be alright? If I take the order away?"

The order of the Temple of Light was created by the ancestor of the Arcknight house. Taking it away with him would seem inappropriate.

"Haha, don’t worry. I already knew something like this would happen the moment you decided to siege Baron Chetak’s city. I have called out to the old members of the Order of the Temple of Light, my comrades. Although they are retired knights now, I’m sure if it’s for the city, they won’t mind reporting for duty once again," Raymond laughed.

It appeared that he had already made plans for when such a scenario came to pass. As one would expect of a Duke, he was not the lord of a dukedom without reason.

That said, his old comrades, huh. From the memories, Reinhardt recalled that most of them were the then knights and high ranking knights of the order.

Although with time and age, they had lost much of their previous strength, they were still once level 7 and level 8 holy knights. Their stats may have degraded, but they still retained those experience and skills, just like his father.

If they were coming back to active duty again, then there was no need for him to worry.

.

Two days later, Reinhardt was standing in front of a convoy of more than forty carriages, each carrying luggage of the knights, the spare weapons and armors of the order, books, documents, and various miscellaneous items.
