The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 131 A Book of Contract That Must Not Be Violated!
Silver Moon Year 659, the month of cold winter.

The entire north was covered with ice and snow, and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow.

Fortunately, thanks to Reina's arrangement, everything went in perfect order.

As the heavy snow fell, the whole world became quiet.

But everyone knows that after the snow melts, new chaos may break out again, and everyone is preparing for the coming chaos.

……

Build walls high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king.

This is the development goal that David has set during this period.

With his current strength, it is not difficult to defend the North.

With the northern fortress behind them, even the Silver Moon Kingdom would find it difficult to invade the north.

After taking possession of the treasure trove of Black Forest, the strength of the entire Frostwolf Ridge can continue to improve.

Among them, just the large number of mid-level extraordinary magical beasts that Annie used the mental contract to bring about is a very terrifying force!

Cynthia can also use her beastly talent to command a large number of monsters.

If Cynthia's beastly talent could also reach the extraordinary level and obtain the heart of the beast, the effect would be even stronger.

David was confident that if he was given enough time, the Wizard Castle would gain the power to compete with the Church of Holy Light.

town Hall.

Reina comes to visit every day.

David came here once every two weeks to meet with some lords and officials.

However, due to heavy snow blocking the roads, those lords were trapped in their own territories.

But even so, with the messenger pet around, no news can be hidden from Frostwolf Ridge.

At this time in the city hall.

Reina was checking the information collected through the messenger pet.

Anne obtained all this information yesterday after she recalled the messenger pets.

In addition to the North, there is also information from the Silver Moon Kingdom and the Crystal Song Kingdom.

Lena scanned through them one by one. Although some of the information didn't seem special, if you put them all together, you could still see some differences.

"All these northern lords' castles have guests coming at the same time?"

Reina narrowed her eyes, keenly aware of what might be hidden behind this.

"guest?"

"Someone from the Silver Moon Royal Family?"

When David heard the news, he also felt something was wrong.

Although it is impossible to start a war in the snow, it is definitely a good opportunity to lobby and win over the northern nobles.

Everyone knows that there is a war between the Northland and the Silver Moon Kingdom, and from the current situation, the Silver Moon Kingdom has an absolute advantage in the situation.

In such a situation, it is inevitable that some lords will become disloyal and take the opportunity to secretly defect to the Silver Moon royal family, so that they can surrender voluntarily when the war breaks out.

"What should we do?" Lena asked in a low voice.

They are just guessing and have no substantial evidence.

"Let's collect the list secretly first."

“So far, we really don’t have any good solutions.”

David shook his head. This was indeed a tough battle.

Although he was confident that he could resist relying on the northern fortress.

But they might end up being trapped in the northern fortress and lose the North.

In addition, he now has a way to enter the Misty Forest, but this is a choice he has no choice but to make. After all, he has not yet figured out the situation in the Misty Forest. It would be too dangerous to stay in the Misty Forest rashly.

If possible, he was unwilling to give up the North, a source of endless resources, and he needed to use Frostwolf Ridge to find more witches to further enhance the wizard castle and his own strength.

However, this also gave him a trump card that could turn the table.

……

Next time.

David continued his training as usual.

Although try to take care of every lady as much as possible.

But he still consciously practiced with Annie several more times.

Although Annie cannot practice for too long each time due to her sensitive body, as long as she follows the principle of eating small and frequent meals, she can complete a considerable number of exercises each day.

Afterwards, David took Ye Zi into the Misty Forest again and asked Ye Zi to search for the magical plants in the Misty Forest.

The harvest from this trip was indeed huge, and we even gathered all the materials for preparing a special potion called Heart of Life.

This special potion of Heart of Life is used to increase the strength of life.

Even a sixth-level knight like David can use it, and it can further help him increase the strength of his life seed.

With the help of potions prepared with leaves, the witches' strength began to increase continuously, and Sophia's strength finally broke through the second level.

With the Misty Forest as a storehouse of medicinal materials, Ye Zi won't have to worry about the problem of medicinal materials for a while.

Northland.

A conspiracy is going on in secret.

Although David actually controls the North, his control over these Northern nobles is not deep, and most of them are only under the pressure of his strength.

Even those nobles who supported the Frostwolf Family could not withstand the pressure from the Silvermoon Kingdom and secretly defected to the Silvermoon Royal Family.

This snow covered everything and concealed the peace. Ordinary people living in the north had no idea of ​​the turbulent waves hidden beneath the snow.

Silver Moon Capital.

Bronco looked toward the North with a deep gaze.

Behind him, the Guardian Knight was wearing the Silver Dragon Armor of the Silver Moon Royal Family.

"His Majesty."

The Guardian Knight knelt on one knee and saluted.

"coming."

Bronco nodded and said solemnly: "I'll leave it to you from now on."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured."

The Guardian Knight answered firmly, fearlessness gleaming in his eyes.

Bronco nodded slightly and watched the Guardian Knight turn and leave.

The room was silent once again, with only the slight crackling of the fire in the fireplace to be heard.

Blanco knew that this moment was not just a contest between the Northland and Silvermoon royal families, but also an important moment for him to consolidate his royal power and demonstrate his majesty.

As night falls, the north is once again covered with thick snow, and a battle hidden in the wind and snow is about to begin.

And in this silent land, every life is fighting for its own destiny, and every decision will determine the direction of the future situation.

……

at the same time.

Frostwolf Ridge, inside the underground prison.

David sat on the wooden chair in the prison with a calm expression.

At this moment, in front of him, was kneeling a wounded knight.

"Tell me, who have you won over?" David said lightly.

This knight is the envoy of the Silver Moon Kingdom.

When David first knew about this person, he had already made arrangements.

The knight's strength was only at level three, and he was very good at hiding. He would never have thought that he had been targeted by a wizard.

Finally, after the knight left a lord's castle, Yulia took the fifth-level ghost wolf beast and quietly moved, successfully captured it, and brought it back.

The knight closed his eyes and said nothing. From the moment he accepted the mission, he had been prepared to sacrifice himself.

Seeing that the knight was unmoved, David frowned slightly, but soon regained his composure. He knew that normal criminal law had no effect.

With a slight sigh, he stood up, walked to the other end of the cell, and took out a bottle of dark black potion from a secret compartment.

"Do you know?" he said slowly, "In this world, there is something more terrifying than death."

He placed the potion on the table and stared at the knight sharply.

The knight still had his eyes closed and still did not respond.

"This is a special secret medicine." David continued, "It can make people experience endless pain, but their consciousness is extremely clear. After drinking it, you will pray for death, but death will not come."

His words were full of cruelty and threats, filling the entire prison with a gloomy atmosphere.

The silence continued to stretch, but the tension in the air grew thicker.

Finally, the knight opened his eyes slightly. He looked at the bottle of black potion with his eyes flashing slightly, but in the end he still said nothing.

"You have a choice." David took a step closer and said, "Tell me who you have won over, and I will let you go. Otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, he picked up the potion and took a step closer to the knight.

The knight saw the black liquid swaying slightly in the bottle. He said in a hoarse and low voice: "Don't waste your time. I won't tell..."

David didn't say anything else and poured the secret medicine directly into the knight's mouth.

What he said just now was not a threat. This potion was prepared by Ye Zi using some magical plants that contained the aura of death.

The necromancy energy contained therein can help necromancers in their practice.

But if an ordinary person drinks it, he will be corroded by the energy of the undead. This feeling will definitely be worse than death, and wanting to die will be a luxury.

The knight's body began to twitch violently, and the pain in his eyes became more and more obvious.

His consciousness was clear, but he was consumed by endless pain, and every inch of his skin seemed to be burned by invisible flames.

He clenched his teeth and tried to hold it back, but a low, painful groan involuntarily came out of his throat.

David looked at the scene coldly, without any mercy.

This knight had obviously been rigorously trained, but David knew that no matter how strong-willed a person was, it would be difficult for him to remain silent for long under such torture worse than death.

"You still have a chance." David said coldly: "As long as you speak, I can end your suffering immediately."

The knight barely opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at David, pain and despair intertwined on his face.

He knew he couldn't hold on any longer; this inhuman torture was beyond his limit.

"I'll tell you..." He finally spoke in a low voice, "I'll tell you everything..."

Hearing this, David showed a satisfied smile and urged the Snow Demon Soul to control the undead energy in the knight's body. "Very good."

He said, "Tell me, who have you won over?"

Over the next period of time, the knight sporadically revealed information about the complex interpersonal relationships and secret alliances among the major lords.

Although his voice was sometimes weak and interrupted, every word brought important and valuable information.

When the last name came out of the knight's mouth, he was completely exhausted and could no longer hold on.

He collapsed on the ground like a tattered doll, without any strength to resist.

After a long while, he reluctantly raised his head and said in almost inaudible words: "Now...end my suffering..."

David looked down at the knight, raised his hand and placed it on the knight's forehead, then his mental power poured directly into the knight's spiritual world and pulled out a trace of his soul.

At the same time, he activated his spiritual contract ability and tried to transform this soul into a spiritual mark.

But as he moved, the knight began to roar in pain, and the soul began to dissipate.

As the soul dissipated, the light in the knight's eyes gradually disappeared, and his figure fell to the ground without a breath.

David frowned. It seemed that the spiritual contract could only be used on magical beasts, and the process was more complicated and dangerous than expected.

Inside the city hall.

David and Lena discuss their next move.

David could tell that what the knight said was generally true.

Moreover, the information he had in his hands could roughly determine the lords that this knight had already won over.

I just don't know if the other party's words will contain some personal opinions.

If the other party hides one sentence among ten sentences, it is really difficult to judge.

In the end, they decided to wait.

"Have someone disguise it so that the Silver Moon Royal Family doesn't find out that this knight is dead."

David explained that he wanted to wait and see what the Silver Moon Kingdom would do next so as not to alert the enemy now.

"Okay." Lena nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

Now time is running out, and David, looking at Lena's back, can only let the little white rabbit go.

Then he stood up.

The situation was urgent and he felt he needed to do something.

After leaving a note on the table saying he was leaving first, David left the town hall and headed for the wizard's castle.

In the study of the wizard's castle.

Annie is looking at the contents of the Book of Summoning.

Now her strength has reached the fourth level, and she can learn new summoning arrays.

Anne was a little surprised to see the Duke coming back early, and immediately went to greet him.

"Your Excellency the Duke, why are you back?" she asked in a low voice.

"Nothing, I just missed you." David said.

Anne's face turned slightly red, and she let the Duke pull her to the desk.

David did not start practicing immediately, but discussed the spiritual contract with Anne.

How to use the ability of spiritual contracts to reach contracts with others is a topic that the two have been discussing recently.

If he could master this spiritual contract ability, David could directly make spiritual contracts with those lords who were not loyal to him.

This way, he could completely control it without having to eradicate it.

"Perhaps, we need to upgrade the spiritual contract to the extraordinary level first."

David thought to himself as he picked up Anne and placed her on the desk.

"Come on, do as I say," he whispered.

Anne blushed, but obediently allowed the Duke to put her into strange positions.

[You complete a training, Spiritual Contract Talent +586]

In this way, time passed little by little.

After eating small meals frequently, his spiritual contract talent finally reached the breakthrough requirements.

"call."

David exhaled a satisfied breath.

Seeing this, Annie quickly asked, "Breakthrough?"

In order to be able to practice with Annie more often during this period, David told her that he wanted to find a way to break through his spiritual contract talent.

"Well, it has been broken through."

David nodded.

Annie breathed a sigh of relief. If this continued, she really couldn't bear it.

Although she has gained a lot of benefits during this period, she still hopes to take it step by step.

David asked Anne to have a good rest and he sat down by the window.

Then he opened the system panel, and with an idea in his mind, he directly began to break through his spiritual contract talent.

David felt a powerful spiritual force surging from his body, directly impacting his spiritual world.

His whole body tensed up and his face turned pale in an instant, but he still clenched his teeth and guided the power to flow and condense in his body step by step.

Every impact of mental power seemed to leave a mark deep in his soul, making his consciousness more sharp and resilient.

Gradually, he entered a wonderful state, like meditation, he felt that his mental power was expanding infinitely and his spiritual world was expanding accordingly.

[Spiritual Contract Talent: Extraordinary (125/1000000), Gained Talent: Heart of Contract]

With the breakthrough of the spiritual contract talent, countless information flooded into his mind like a tide.

This information includes how to conduct spiritual contracts more efficiently, how to understand the essence behind soul contracts at a deeper level, and so on.

Heart of Contract: Establish a deep soul connection by establishing a contract with the target.

David opened his eyes, recalling the information in his mind, and suddenly a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.

"Your Excellency the Duke, how is it?" Anne asked expectantly.

When David heard this, he suddenly stepped forward, picked up Anne, and spun her around on the spot.

"very good."

He put Annie down with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

The Heart of Contract actually allows him to establish a direct soul connection by reaching an agreement with the target!
This reminded him of something called the Book of Contract, which was a wizard's thing.

It is said that those ancient and mysterious wizards can bind souls and constrain both parties from violating the terms of the contract by writing down the terms in the book of contract.

"This is almost like the Book of Contracts used by wizards."

David muttered.

He realized that if he could use this ability properly, he could not only enhance his own strength, but also build an extremely loyal and powerful team!
"Your Excellency the Duke, this means that we can expand our territory more safely, right?"

Anne obviously also realized the great potential brought by this ability, and her eyes were shining with hope and excitement.

"That's right." David nodded. Thinking of this, he decided to start the experiment immediately.

Then he went directly to the desk, thought for a while, and wrote down a contract.

Annie was watching from the side, and when she saw him looking up, she was suddenly stunned.

What the Duke wrote was actually a marriage contract!
David wrote the last word and looked up, with a firm and gentle light in his eyes.

Anne had a complicated expression, she had never thought that the Duke would actually write such a contract, and she was speechless for a moment.

But after a moment, she suddenly said coquettishly: "My Lord Duke, you are so cunning. Why can I only love you?"

"Hey, then will you sign it or not?"

David had a sly smile on his face.

He stood up, walked to Anne, and handed her the marriage contract. "If you are willing, I will always protect you as promised."

Anne looked at the engagement in her hand, and her eyes suddenly became moist.

Although the Duke has been fulfilling his original promise, she is still very moved.

"I am willing."

She nodded firmly and signed her name on the marriage certificate.

Instantly, a powerful energy surged from the depths of their souls, and an indescribable close connection was established between them!

David knew that this connection came from the heart of the contract.

This is a special power that even he himself cannot violate.

Somehow, the heart of the contract seemed to be connected to something.

If you violate the power contained in the contract, you will be punished by the mysterious force.

"What is this?" David murmured.

This was the first time he had this feeling, as if he had come into contact with the origin of the world.

And this should be the source of power of the wizard's book of contract, representing the powerful rules of the contract.

"My current strength is still too weak. This is not something I can spy on right now."

After a moment, David shook his head and continued to feel the heart of the contract in his body.

As this connection was established, he suddenly felt a spiritual force merging into the heart of the contract.

Next, if he wants to terminate the contract, he can activate the heart of the contract and terminate it with the confirmation of both parties.

"Your Majesty the Duke."

Anne also opened her eyes at this time, with surprise on her face.

Apparently, she felt that special spiritual connection, too.

She had a feeling that if she violated the terms of the contract, something bad would definitely happen.

"Ah."

"My heart of contract can indeed replace the book of contract."

David answered in the affirmative. He felt that the Book of Contract should have been created with the help of a power similar to that of the Heart of Contract.

"You can't run away now," he said teasingly.

"I didn't mean to run away."

Anne's expression softened, and she gently hugged the man in front of her and leaned her head against him.

"Well, should we celebrate?"

at night.

David wrote seven identical marriage contracts and gave them to his seven other wives.

David had never been able to confirm the identities of his wives, so this engagement became even more important.

"Thank you, Your Excellency the Duke."

"Humph, if you sign this, you must take responsibility!"

"Hey, why can we only love you? This is not fair!"

David's eyes fell on the protesting Cynthia, and he chuckled and stretched out his claws towards her.

Next time.

David began writing other contracts.

Among them is the contract for witches to join the wizard castle.

This contract can impose some constraints on wizards, so that they can abide by the rules set by the wizard castle.

Next, there will definitely be many more wizards joining the Wizard Castle, and a contract to join the organization is still very important.

The mere fact that if the wizard castle is attacked, all wizards who join the wizard castle must fight back is enough to protect the safety of the wizard castle.

In addition, there is his main target this time, the loyalty contracts of those lords.

This loyalty contract is also very simple, which includes the loyalty clauses stipulated by the kingdom and some customary regulations.

This means that what was originally just verbal loyalty has been transformed into a written contract.

Anyone who signs this contract and pledges allegiance to him will be affected by the Heart of the Contract and must strictly abide by the terms of the contract!
From now on, as long as the loyalty agreement is signed, all signatories will never be able to betray him!
After completing the writing of the loyalty contract, David rode on the Phantom Wolf and led the wolf riders out of Frostwolf Ridge.

In the snow, the ghost wolf beasts were very steady. The wind and snow could not stop their pace at all, and they arrived at Beiyuan City very easily.

Beiyuan City was one of the territories that the Silver Moon Kingdom’s royal family had lobbied for.

Beiyuan City is located close to the Western Border and can be said to be the front line of the northern battlefield. The pressure faced by the Wild Wolf Family is still very great.

Although the knight said that the Wild Wolf Family had defected to the Silver Moon Kingdom, David did not completely believe it.

Regardless of whether the Wild Wolf Family has surrendered to the Silver Moon Kingdom or not, a contract of allegiance is enough to guarantee the loyalty of the Wild Wolf Family!

If Count Wild Wolf really dares to violate the loyalty contract, he will be directly retaliated by the Heart of the Contract!
“I’m finally back.”

Yuna followed David and looked at the familiar city wall in front of her with a complicated expression.

Half a year ago, she was the eldest daughter of the Wild Wolf family, but now she is the lover of the Duke of Frostwolf.

However, she also became a female knight of the Frostwolf Knights through this opportunity, and she couldn't express how she felt now.

On the city wall.

The soldiers guarding the city saw the Frostwolf Knights from afar.

Especially the leading ghost wolf, its terrifying aura continued to oppress the mountain wolves in the city!

"That's Duke Frostwolf!"

The commander of the city defense suddenly narrowed his eyes and immediately sent someone to notify Count Wild Wolf.

When Count Wild Wolf arrived at the city wall, the Frostwolf Knights were already very close to Beiyuan City.

"Why is Duke Frostwolf here?"

The other officials were whispering, and some of them had flickering eyes.

Count Wild Wolf was also very confused.

Fortunately, he saw his daughter beside Duke Frostwolf, and he felt relieved.

If the Frostwolf Duke came to call for punishment, he would definitely not bring Yuna with him.

But what on earth could have made the Frostwolf Duke come to Beiyuan City on such a snowy day, and bring so many Frostwolf Knights with him?

All the thoughts in his mind were just momentary.

Afterwards, he simply asked the guards to open the city gate and went to greet them himself.

"Greetings, Your Excellency the Duke."

Count Wild Wolf, along with the nobles and officials, knelt on one knee to pay their respects.

"Get up."

David nodded and was ushered into the city.

"I wonder what the Duke needs me to do?"

Count Wild Wolf lowered his posture very low and spoke in a low voice.

Ever since he was forced to kill the Marquis of the Giant Lizard and the Giant Lizard Knights, he has been firmly tied to the Frostwolf Family.

"Let all the nobles and officials come to the castle." David said.

"it is good."

Count Wild Wolf was even more confused, but he still nodded.

After arriving at the Wild Wolf Castle, David went directly to the meeting room, while Yuna David acted on her own. She probably had her own things to do when she returned home.

Not long after, the nobles and officials in Beiyuan City arrived one after another. After looking at each other, they sat in their seats with puzzled faces.

David didn't say much and went straight to telling what he had heard about the Silver Moon Kingdom sending people to lobby the nobles and officials in the North.

Upon hearing this, the faces of everyone in the field suddenly changed. Some were puzzled, some looked at them with scrutiny, and some were terrified.

"Your Excellency the Duke, I swear on the ancestors of the Wild Wolf Family that I have never betrayed the Frost Wolf Family." Count Wild Wolf immediately stood up and spoke in a deep voice.

"I know."

"Otherwise I would have called directly."

David comforted him, still approving of Count Wild Wolf's performance.

Of course, his belief in Count Wild Wolf did not mean that he believed in the other nobles and officials present.

Count Wild Wolf had obviously thought of this as well, and he glanced around with a sullen face.

David didn't say much. He just took out the contract of allegiance and asked these nobles and lords to swear allegiance again and sign the contract of allegiance.

Count Wild Wolf did not know about the Heart of the Contract, but he was the first to pick up the contract of allegiance and read it. He then began to swear allegiance according to the words on the contract and signed his name on it.

"I accept your loyalty." David said in a deep voice.

As he finished speaking, the contract was reached, and David could clearly sense through his mental power that a connection had been formed between his soul and that of Count Wild Wolf.

At the same time, the content of the contract condensed in the heart of the contract in the form of mental power, turning into a stream of energy that enveloped the souls of the two people.

Count Wild Wolf seemed to sense something in a trance and looked up with some confusion. Just now he suddenly felt that someone was watching him.

But after just a moment, the feeling disappeared, leaving him with a sense of illusion, yet the feeling was too real.

David signaled to Count Wild Wolf that he could return to his position.

He then turned his attention to the other nobles and officials.

"Next, please swear allegiance one by one and sign the contract." David said calmly.

The nobles and officials looked at each other, but no one dared to disobey.

After all, Count Wild Wolf had already taken the lead, and they did not want to anger this powerful duke.

One by one, the nobles and officials came forward, swore allegiance as required by the contract, and signed it.

Every time they completed this process, David could feel the connection between the souls gradually increasing, and the Heart of the Contract continued to build the contract connection.

When the last person signed and returned to his seat, a young knight suddenly stood up.

His expression was firm, but with a hint of hesitation. "Your Excellency the Duke, I have something to say."

"Go ahead." David motioned that he could speak.

"My name is Leon." Leon took a deep breath, "Although I have signed the loyalty agreement, there is one thing I must confess."

"I was contacted by people from the Silver Moon Kingdom, and they tried to persuade me to rebel, but please believe me, I did not betray the Frostwolf Family."

The place suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Leon and David nervously, worried that this would become the fuse of a conflict.

Surprisingly, David did not get angry right away.

He nodded slightly, "Thank you for your honesty. I believe in your loyalty because we now have the contract as proof."

After these words were spoken, not only Leon breathed a sigh of relief, but others also felt relieved. This showed that as long as they abided by their oath, they would not be suspected or punished. This made everyone relax a lot, and only a few people had doubts in their hearts.

Did the Duke of Frostwolf really believe it just by signing a contract and giving a guarantee?

"Okay, please go back."

"Remember your words today and this pledge of allegiance."

"Anyone who dares to violate the contract will be severely punished."

David spoke up.

The lords and nobles in the field stood up one after another and then left.

"Your Excellency the Duke." Count Wild Wolf opened his mouth.

He felt that the Duke was being too merciful by letting him go.

"Don't worry, no one can escape." David smiled.

The contract has been formed, and he might as well take a look at what changes will occur if the terms of the contract are violated.

……

at night.

David comes to Yuna’s room.

Yuna seemed to be in a good mood at this time.

When she returned home this time, she discovered that the attitudes of her parents and brothers had changed.

Even though she was only the Duke's lover, she was treated with respect by everyone. When they learned that she had activated the blood of the Wild Wolf, everyone's faces changed. She also saw deep jealousy in her third brother's eyes.

Thinking of this, she suddenly didn't blame her father so much.

"Your Excellency the Duke, I will help you rest." Yuna stepped forward and said.

"it is good."

David nodded and asked Yuna to take off her clothes.

Soon, the two began to practice. Yuna was quite enthusiastic today. She first took the initiative to practice the back side position with David.

Then came the practice of normal asanas. David pulled Yuna's body up at the right time, keeping her standing on her knees, and picked her up with his hands. Yuna's waist was hanging in the air, which looked similar to the handstand in Chinese opera.

This posture is a very difficult movement, and the effect of training is also very good. Since Yuna is in an upside-down position, he can see more clearly!

[You have completed a training session, Wilderness Mountain Wolf Bloodline +45]

[Wasteland Mountain Wolf Bloodline: Level 368 (5000/)]

Yuna's strength has actually improved quite quickly. With his help, various resource assistance and system feedback, plus her own practice all day long, her strength has increased from level one to level two, and the effect of her practice has improved again.

However, Yuna is the type of person who focuses on cultivation and has a rather cold personality. The effects of her cultivation mostly come from blood feedback, so the results of her cultivation are still not very good.

Of course, Yuna's performance in playing the role of a lover was very satisfactory. At least David was in a very happy mood every time he practiced.

Every time he practiced with Yuna, he could do whatever he wanted, and he would not stop practicing until Yuna became unconscious and trembling all over, only then would he be satisfied.

……

When he retired for the night, David closed his eyes.

Just now, he felt the unusual movement of the Heart of the Contract.

Obviously, someone has violated the loyalty pact and suffered backlash.

"Well, the Heart of the Contract directly devoured the other party's soul?"

David's heart moved and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He could feel that after devouring this soul, the Heart of Contract became stronger, and even he, the owner of the Heart of Contract, could get feedback.

"Unfortunately, the amount of mental energy fed back is too little."

"If I could devour a stronger soul, it might be of some use."

David's heart moved, but then he shook his head.

He possesses the ability to absorb souls, but he doesn't use this method to enhance his mental strength.

If we can create a book of contract through the Heart of Contract and then promote it, with more people using it, it might be of some use.

However, now that he had tested the effect of the Heart of Contract, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, the chaos in the north can come to an end!
Next, he just needs to wait for those traitors to jump out one by one. Anyway, none of them can escape!

the next day.

David got up early and Yuna served him.

As soon as he left the room, he saw Count Wild Wolf who had been waiting for him.

"What happened?" David asked calmly.

Seeing this, Count Wild Wolf whispered, "A noble has died in the city."

He said, looking at the Duke's expression.

"Oh."

"I see."

"They violated their pledge of allegiance, you just deal with it."

Hearing the Duke's words, Count Wild Wolf was shocked.

Although he had some guesses, he didn't expect that it was actually done by His Excellency the Duke. However, now in Beiyuan City, only His Excellency the Duke could do it.

His attitude became more respectful, and he was glad for his choice.

After taking his leave, Earl Wild Wolf went down to deal with the matter directly, and directly informed the other nobles that these dead nobles had betrayed the Duke and had been severely punished by the Duke, so that other nobles and officials could take this as a warning!

Not long after, Count Wild Wolf actually found some evidence among the dead nobles, confirming that these nobles had indeed betrayed the Duke!
After the news came out, the entire Beiyuan City was shaken. Although no one knew how the Duke knew the situation, no one dared to really gamble.

Those nobles who had not agreed were relieved at this, and even those who had agreed no longer dared to try again.

David stayed in Beiyuan City for a day, and two more nobles were killed by the backlash of the contract. Naturally, all their wealth was confiscated and taken away by David.

The next day, David left Beiyuan City and planned to go to other territories to have the nobles and lords sign the loyalty contracts.

The journey was very smooth. Everyone knew the content of the allegiance written in the allegiance contract, and it even stipulated the responsibilities of the lord.

On the third day, David suddenly received a message from Lena and rushed back to Frostwolf Ridge as soon as possible.

(End of this chapter)
