Netheril’s Glory

After the early ending of their discussion with the young city Lord, Hutt anxiously went to a humble forge house near the castle. As the Internal Affairs Minister, if something significant happened in Dolez, he had the responsibility to notify the guardian of the city, the Dwarf Warrior Bahanger, as soon as possible.

Although nobles would usually bring some gifts while visiting such a prominent figure to win some goodwill, but Hutt was completely empty-handed. Part of the reason for this was that Gifts were of no use to a dwarf warrior, and he would just throw it aside. But the main reason was that although this official-level dwarf never rejected any gifts, but the other party never returned the favor. And Hutt's family had painfully confirmed this fact in the past 100 years.

Entering the forging room, Hutt was gritted with scorching heat and an unpleasant smell of iron stains in the air. After enduring the heat and the smell, he walked toward a bearded dwarf who was waving a hammer to forge a piece of silver metal.

"Lord Bahanger, Lord Bahanger, your subordinate has something to report."

Hutt had to call the Dwarf Warrior in a voice similar to yelling because of the constant hammering noise.

"How come it's you again? What's the matter this time?"

Bahanger threw the sledgehammer on the forging table with a loud clang and asked impatiently.

"I told you to only call me if there is something wrong with the Hyde family. I only agreed to protect the Hyde family and not to be a nanny."

Seeing Bahanger turn around, Hutt almost had the urge to turn around and escape. The power of the official-level Warrior was just too frightening to him.

"Lord Bahanger, there has been a terrible disease in the city of Dolez recently, but His Highness, after listening to the knight Keith's ridiculous reasonings, actually wants to let the mob into the city. I am worried that, His Highness, the last heir of the Hyde family, may become infected with the plague if such a thing happens."

At this time, Hutt was really like a loyal old butler who was extremely worried about his master. There was not a single flaw in his acting.

But Bahanger didn't even look at him directly. Hearing that the so-called major event was just a trivial plague, he raised his hand impatiently and said:

"A little plague is nothing. I can easily disperse it with a little bit of my Qi. So as long as I'm here, no plague can approach this place."

With that, Bahanger took up the hammer again and was getting ready to continue striking.

"My lord, my lord, this... the plague is destroying the foundation of the Hyde family..."

Hearing that Bahanger ignored such a terrible plague, Hutt became anxious, and he continued to persuade him, but Bahanger turned his head and said fiercely:

"I said, my agreement at that time was that if Hyde family was in trouble, I would solve it. If Hyde family had nothing to do with it, I would strike iron with peace of mind. If Hyde family was destroyed, I would take revenge. I have nothing to do with other family business."

After speaking, Bahanger continued to hammer the silver metal on the iron ingot repeatedly, showing that he didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Seeing Bahanger's attitude, Hutt could only secretly scold the old dwarf in his heart for being so inflexible, and in the end, he left with regrets.

After leaving the hot forging room, although Hart's face still had a kind smile, his fist was clenched tightly because of the shameful experience.

"If I knew this church was this careless, I shouldn't have cooperated with them!"

Thinking about his decision of colluding with the Ti Xiaer Church, Hutt stomped his feet in anger.

As the internal affairs minister with great power, more than half of the nobles in Dolez city were in his side. However, because the powerful Dwarf Warrior Bahanger firmly sheltered the useless Hyde family, he would never be able to overthrow the silk-pant Gorat who only cared about Pleasuring himself.

He knew that his so-called power when facing an official-level warrior was nothing but a joke. Then there also was that damned Keith staring at him all the time. His dream of being the master of Dolez was destined to be just a dream. Just when he almost gave up on his ambitions, the high priest of the Ti Xiaer Church came to meet with him.

Hutt clearly remembered that the high priest of the other side revealed that he wanted to kill Knight Keith. According to him, knight Keith had been hindering the development of the church, and the pious high priest simply could not bear it.

This coincided with Hutt's thoughts. As long as there was no Keith to challenge himself, he could have managed the muscle-brain dwarf who didn't care about things, and the little Gorat was already in his control. So it could be said that he was the master of the Dolez City in a sense.

Blinded by greed, Hutt did not hesitate to cooperate with this unknown church and help them cover up many unacceptable missionary activities while also giving them the green light on various smuggled goods. He even helped the other party to attract believers in the army in order to suppress Keith, but at that time, he didn't think that the actions of this church would become crazier and crazier as if they were looking for death.

After getting into the carriage, he could not help but gnash his teeth in anger:

"Do this group of lunatics want to offend all the people of the good camp? They are actually forcing people to drink some strange medicine. All this just to quickly gain a few more poor believers?"

Hutt was puzzled. He couldn't imagine why this church did this, even after knowing that some of the good priests in Dolez City might take action! Because of this abnormal situation, even the main forces of Dylan Kingdom would become suspicious.

"Don't they know that their crazy behaviors would become their downfall?"

Hutt even suspected that the recent outbreak of the plague was also related to the other party, but he didn't even want to think of such a terrible situation, so he threw it out of his mind.

After all, if that was really the case, and it was revealed that he had some connection with them, then it would be the end of him.

But now, Hutt had already boarded their ship. Although he couldn't wait to get off the ship and get rid of his involvement with this lunatic church, Hutt had a vague hunch in his heart that things would not be so easy.

……

The city of Dolez still seemed as peaceful as ever. It was like the epidemic was deliberately avoiding the city. And while the people outside the city were in a dire strait, people inside the city were still going about their business as usual, as most of them still regarded the legendary plague as simple rumors and stories.

There was only one small army assembled at the city gate who had decided to go out of the city to help the people trapped outside under the guidance of their righteous Knight Commander.

Keith watched as several noble ladies gestured toward their group of solemn soldiers. Many people accused them of risking the safety of the entire city for the sake of a few poor refugees. Seeing such behaviors, Knight Keith was filled with anger.

In his opinion, as long as the quarantine work was done well, many innocent refugees could be rescued, but...

The nobles of Dolez were afraid of the spread of the disease, and most of them refused to let the poor people into the city. Even though Keith had repeatedly promised that he personally do the inspection work, there were still many people in Dolez who refused to help.

Even the majority of ordinary people were opposed to Keith's decision, which made the knight who cherished Dolez very sad. He could not accept this kind of heartless argument, so even if he was against public opinion, he decided to go out of the city to help the refugees.

After hearing about the spread of an epidemic, several city lords surrounding the luxuriant Jungle refused to talk to any person of the Dolez city. So these refugees had no place to go.

Knight Keith clenched the lance in his hand, and amid the criticism of the surrounding onlookers, resolutely led the small army outside the Dolez City.
