The town of Eagle and the capital city of the Lance Kingdom, Debit, are more than two thousand kilometers apart.
Even if Rennes and the others are riding the Windsteed, which possesses the bloodline of a demon beast and can travel hundreds of kilometers a day, it still takes about five days to arrive.
During this long journey, Rennes did not waste any time.
In order for his daughter to quickly establish herself and stand out in the Legion.
Rennes imparted a lot of knowledge to Hilda.
This included war concepts from his previous life and ways of dealing with people.
As long as she fully assimilates this knowledge, coupled with her good talent for combat aura, Hilda will definitely become a female general who can dominate the battlefield in the future.
Knowing that her father's teachings are extremely valuable, Hilda listened very seriously and carefully to not miss anything.
The five days passed in the blink of an eye.
After these days of rushing, Rennes successfully arrived to Debit the Capital City of Lance kingdom with his daughter.
And as the capital city of the entire Lance Kingdom, Debit City can be described as extremely prosperous.
The streets are wide enough for four carriages to travel side by side, people come and go from all sides.
From time to time, you can also see warriors wearing armor and mages wearing mage robes...
Rennes then strolled around the city with his daughter Hilda.
Then, he took her to the recruitment office of the Lionheart Legion.
And at the moment of their arrival, the recruitment office of the Lionheart Legion had long formed a long line.
The number of people reached thousands, all of these people came to enlist.
After all, the Lionheart Legion is one of the three extraordinary knight orders of the kingdom, and its treatment is far beyond that of ordinary legions.
For free citizens without extraordinary knowledge or inheritance, or young nobles without much extraordinary resources.
If they pass the recruitment assessment of the Lionheart Legion, that is equivalent to stepping into the world of the extraordinary.
You can imagine how high their enthusiasm is.
Of course, as one of the top three Legion of the kingdom is not easy to join.
At least the recruitment standards for the Lionheart Legion are quite high.
Having the aptitude for cultivating Qi is the foundation, and the age cannot exceed eighteen, and physical fitness also needs to be more than twice that of an ordinary person.
Only when all of these requirements are met can one pass the preliminary selection and become a reserve soldier.
As for the afterwards, it is necessary to cultivate Qi within three months and become a 0th rank knight.
Otherwise, it means losing the qualification to stay in the Lionheart Legion and getting transferred to the regular army.
Following this process, it would be considered good if five out of a hundred people become soldiers of the Lionheart Legion.
When he was young, Rennes himself did not pass this test.
It was his father who bribed the officer and used connections to let him stay.
Recalling past experiences, Rennes suddenly had a trance-like expression.
It has to be said that time flies by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it has been over thirty years.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that her father was acting strange, Hilda asked with concern.
"It's nothing! Just remembering some things from the past."
"Let's go inside." Coming back to his senses, Rennes patted Hilda's head and smiled.
As a count and nobleman.
He naturally doesn't need to line up with these people.
After stating his identity, the soldiers at the recruitment office immediately saluted Rennes.
Then one of them quickly ran to inform their superior.
One minute later, a legion commander named Delius walked out of the camp.
He personally welcomed Rennes and the others inside.
"Count Rennes, may I ask what brings you to the Lionheart Legion?" Commander Delius asked politely.
Rennes didn't beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly.
"My daughter wants to join the Lionheart Legion."
Upon hearing this, Commander Delius frowned slightly.
He had seen noble daughters joining the military several times before.
Most of these noble girls only joined the army after reading some biographies of some famous female generals.
In reality, they couldn't adapt to the military life at all.
They would leave within two months.
In his opinion, the daughter of the count in front of him should be the same.
Moreover, the Lionheart Legion was entirely composed of men, without a single woman.
And with the addition of a young and beautiful woman would definitely cause a lot of trouble.
He didn't want to take on such a troublesome matter.
By then, there would be no benefits, and he might even get himself into trouble.
Sensing the resistance from the legion commander, Rennes spoke again:
"Hilda has been strictly trained by me since she was young. She now has the strength of a 4th-tier knight and will definitely not hold back the legion..."
As he spoke, Rennes took out a gold ticket worth 5,000 gold coins from his pocket and handed it to Delius.
This gold ticket was a deposit certificate issued by the largest official bank in the Kingdom of Lance.
Anyone could exchange the ticket for the corresponding value of gold coins from the bank.
Seeing Rennes being so generous, Delius immediately swallowed the words of refusal.
Instead, he smiled and said:
"No problem! From today on, your daughter will be the captain of my knights."
"she is so young and already has the strength of an intermediate knight, she has the potential to become a powerful female general in the future."
Upon hearing this, Rennes couldn't help but marvel at the power and influence of authority and money.
In the past, he was just an ordinary knight in the Lionheart legion serving the higher ups, but because of his help, his daughter started off as the captain of ten knights.
The difference is indeed quite significant.
Of course, Hilda has the strength of a 4th rank and is definitely capable of holding the position of captain.
There is no need to worry about her being unfit for the role.
"In the future, I hope you, the commander, will take good care of my daughter."
After completing the deal, Rennes exchanged a few words with Delius and left with his subordinates.
After all, the purpose of this trip has already been achieved.
There is no point in staying any longer, so he left the Debit City after saying goodbye to his daughter.
Five days later,
Rennes and his group returned to the Habsburg family's territory.
Just as they arrived, Rennes received a handwritten letter from his eldest son, Leid.
The letter stated that he should make time to visit the Charlock family.
As for why, the letter did not specify.
"What does this brat want? He's being all secretive and teasing."
After reading the letter, Rennes couldn't help but laugh and curse.
However, since it's an invitation from his son, he must go no matter what he says.
