"Raymon, those women and children were not killed by this Lord of Storm Lord. I have already investigated clearly!" Catherine immediately explained, "It was Baron Quint next door who deliberately attacked the tribe in order to frame Storm Lord and then kidnapped three people. The clansmen came to the Storm Territory."
"Leymon, you can think about it, otherwise, how could they spend all their efforts to kidnap the tribesmen and come to the Storm Territory, and then kill the tribesmen!"
After hearing this, Raymond paused. He had vaguely noticed something was wrong at first, but he was so angry that he couldn't think so much.
Now when Cather said it, the unreasonable situation appeared in his mind again. After a moment, Raymond said: "Miss Catherine, are you sure!"
"Leymon, it's confirmed! I have verified this answer myself. Moreover, there are several guards who attacked the tribe in the cell nearby. After a while, the women and children of the tribe come over, and you can ask them to identify them. !”
Regarding several guards who attacked the tribe, this is what Shirley told her two days ago.
Shirley even told Catherine the whole story of the barbarian incident. Of course, Shirley's main purpose of doing this was to highlight the magic of the lord, so that Catherine would admire him as much as she did.
As Catherine spoke affirmative words, Raymond finally wavered.
After getting along with Catherine for several years, the barbarians' trust in Catherine was actually no different from that of their own tribe.
"Leymon, a small tribe like yours must not only face various harsh environments to survive on the Fire Grassland, but also be threatened by various monsters. If you can join the Storm Territory, you may be able to live a better life. At least you guys Children in the tribe are no longer so vulnerable to death.”
"And the elders in your tribe don't have to worry about being a drag on the tribe if they can't hunt!"
Although she had only been in Storm Territory for a few days, Catherine knew a little about the living conditions of the people in the territory and Nalant's reputation.
Every household in Maiye Village has meat to eat, and as long as they are willing to work for the lord, they can get paid.
Therefore, she felt that if the barbarians could join the Storm Territory, it would be of great benefit to the small tribe of Raymond.
"I heard that nobles are also very cruel to their people. They often kill them whenever they want. What's more, we are still barbarians..." Raymond was indeed moved, but he still had the last trace of hesitation.
"Big guy, you don't have to worry about this. As long as you join the Storm Territory, I will treat you like other ordinary civilians."
"Moreover, many of you have gone out to work these days. You should have some idea of how the serfs in my territory live!"
Catherine's subsequent words to persuade Raymond were in the imperial language, so Nalant could understand it.
At this time, he walked in directly and spoke to Raymond.
"I...can..." Under Nalant's gaze, thinking of the current situation of himself and others, Raymond finally relaxed.
In fact, in addition to facing the harsh environment on the grassland, you also have to be careful about attacks from other large tribes.
Barbarian tribes like Raymond and others are at the lowest level.
In the years when food was plentiful, they could still survive, but if there was a shortage of food, they would be the targets of plunder by the big tribes.
Now they were captured again. If they were kept here, I believe that within a month, the women and children left on the grassland would either starve to death or be robbed by other tribes.
"Very good!" Seeing Raymond finally relent, Nalant couldn't help but smile.
In addition to not using their brains, these big guys are also very straightforward in character. They basically never go back on their promises, which is why Raymond was acting like a mother-in-law just now.
As long as he lets go, it means that Nalant has an 80% chance of conquering this group of barbarians.
The remaining 20% can be made up when all the women and children of their tribe are taken over.
When Raymond saw Nalant nodding, he said a few words in barbarian language to the tribesmen behind him.
The barbarians looked shocked at first and retorted. However, as Raymond continued to speak a few words, the barbarians all looked like defeated roosters and lowered their heads and stopped talking.
"Lord, Raymond is persuading his tribesmen. Some tribesmen say they are unwilling to join the Storm Territory, but Raymond asked them to think about their wives and children. If they continue to be imprisoned here, their wives and children will be imprisoned before long. starve!"
When Raymond saw that all the tribesmen no longer objected, he turned around and looked at Nalant with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Raymond... saw... met the lord..." Finally, Raymond knelt down towards Nalant.
"I've seen the lord!" The other barbarians looked at me and I looked at you, and they also knelt on the ground one after another.
"Well! Everyone, get up! From today on, you are the citizens of the Storm Territory!" Nalant looked kind and took the initiative to help Raymond up.
"Raymond, I know that most of you have no choice but to choose to surrender. However, I believe that you will feel lucky for today in the future!"
"In addition, as your lord, I have decided to show my sincerity to you. Within a week, I will make Quint pay the price for attacking your tribe!"
"This..." Raymond was stunned.
Is it so fast?
Just a moment after he and others joined the Storm Leader, the lord was actually ready to avenge himself and others.
Baron Quint and the others have also heard of it. After all, Quint Territory directly borders the Fire Grassland.
Could it be that this Lord wants to launch a war against other nobles for himself and others?
Nalant didn't care what Raymond was thinking. After making the promise, he continued to Raymond: "Raymon, I'd like to apologize to you and continue to stay here for a while. I'll go out and arrange for the guards to go to Maiye Village later." Make an announcement and place you in Maiye Village when the time comes! This way it won’t cause chaos!"
"As for your wives and children, I will speed up preparations and find a way to pick them up!"
"Thank you, Lord!" Raymond didn't know what to say at this time, but the second time he called out Lord, he became much more fluent.
Next, Narant took Shirley and Catherine back to the vestibule.
After sending someone to call Mario, and asking Mario to clean out some thatched huts, Nalant ordered the kitchen to prepare food for the barbarians!
"Catherine, although Raymond and others have expressed their surrender, they are used to living on the grassland after all, and there are ordinary villagers in the territory, so I hope you can help me restrain them during this time! Is that okay?"
"I am happy to serve you, my lord!"
Catherine also heard Nalant's promise just now.
As a lord, since Nalant has said the words to avenge the barbarians, I believe he will never break his promise.
Therefore, Catherine's sense of Nalant became better at this time. In addition to being kind and generous, this lord was also extremely kind to his people.
Catherine was very happy that Raymond and others could find such a lord, so she was ready to do her best to arrange things Nalant arranged.
"Perhaps it would be nice to really live here. After all, there may never be such a kind nobleman in the principality again!" Catherine thought to herself.
