In the rear, watching the battle unfold, Napoleon pondered to himself: This man named John truly lives up to his reputation! His ability to train troops is nothing short of astonishing. No wonder his late Third Brother specifically invited John to take charge of military training back in the day. It is a pity that no one could have foreseen that the earth-shattering Holy Domain War would affect them.
As he thought about this, Napoleon instinctively stroked the ring on his finger, a symbol of supreme power, and a slight smile crept onto his lips. Despite the countless hardships he had faced along the way, it was ultimately he who emerged victorious in this battle.
Looking back, the storms and trials of the past seemed to rise vividly before him. However, at this moment, he understood that he could not afford to be complacent, for there were still greater challenges awaiting him ahead.
It should be noted that within the court, the faction led by the Fourth Prince remained powerful, and many remnants of the Third Prince's faction had now defected to support the Fourth Prince. As a result, the struggle between factions in the court had intensified. Regardless of everything else, the immediate priority was to reward Baron John.
After a moment's thought, Napoleon spoke up: "Come here! Draft an edict. The Lord Baron John of Salted Fish Territory is not only brave and fearless but also possesses extraordinary skills in military training. Therefore, I bestow upon him the title of Divine Weapon and elevate his rank from Baron to Count. Furthermore, he will continue to serve as an instructor for the Royal Capital Guard."
As soon as he finished speaking, a Eunuch who had been waiting nearby quickly responded, "At your command!" He then hurriedly prepared ink and paper, writing according to Napoleon's decree. Before long, an official edict was completed. The Eunuch carefully held this edict and rode swiftly towards the Training Ground to personally deliver it to John, who was directing soldiers in their drills.
In the bustling courtyard of the royal capital stood a magnificent and resplendent mansion that particularly caught the eye. This estate was a special honor bestowed upon John by the great King Napoleon himself.
Since receiving that edict, John had transformed into a prominent Count. This elevation was remarkable; he had jumped two ranks from Baron to Count, successfully entering the upper echelons of nobility within the kingdom.
However, there was one drawback: this new king had not granted him any corresponding territory. As such, despite holding the title of Count, it was more of an empty honor without real substance.
To truly live up to his title, John would need to find a way to acquire a vast expanse of land; otherwise, he would remain confined to his small Salted Fish Territory.
Yet at this moment, as John gazed at Natasha lying in bed in their bedroom, an unprecedented sense of peace and security surged within him. Even without relying on the king's favor or participating in wars, he possessed his own resources and could still carve out a broad domain for himself. Under his formidable influence, Natasha's territory had already been transferred into his name.
With this thought in mind, a resolute glint flashed in John's eyes. He knew that the time had come; it was time to send capable subordinates to reclaim what rightfully belonged to him.
