The New Duchess
Chapter 99: Faithful


Hardwin with


Edward's headed for the security checkpoint, man,


the two of them will arrange how the position of the troops who just came was.


Though Edward will return them in the near future


just waiting for approval from Ai who has promised it.


“ lord Hardwin!” recited


his men once saw his superiors walking closer to the troops.


“ you guys complete?” ask


Hardwin checked the team.


“ yes tuan” answer them


compact. After making sure that there were no problems in his army, Hardwin


lead them into the city.


“ I will order


the Camp section to set up a place for you and your troops. Temporarily


you can join the security forces. He will set you guys”


obviously Edward while pointing at a soldier who was indeed heading the section.


“ then how about


Ai” Edward's eyes glared for a moment, how could this man with his leisure


calling the Duchess' name is so disrespectful. But quickly his face returned


normals.


“ is obviously our


prepare the best place” replied Edward firmly, without waiting for a response from


Hardwin, he immediately left the man. There are many things that must


he did after the Duchess's arrival here.


Night has come, Ai


just finished cleaning up, after a few days of no


cleaning or changing clothes.


“ Susan can you bring


clean clothes?” said Ai who was still in the room. Ai is given


a slightly complete room, there is a room along with a front room to receive


guest. This room is on the 2nd floor so a little city view can be seen


from room.


“ I have prepared in


on the nyo nightstand, uh tuan” replied susan a little nervously. The woman was given


order to call Ai as Master. I don't want her presence to be so


striking in the team group. Moreover, the name of the mistress will definitely invite flavor


curious troops who later even hampered his plan.


“ ah, yes. Already found”


Ai immediately put on that shirt. He had already said what kind of clothes


she wanted. Pants and shirts, almost the same as the clothes of the troops only


just have a different model.


When finished with


personal matter, Ai is now eating her dinner. Despite being on standby, Ai


I was surprised by the menu they gave me. Quite complete and delicious. Not like


the food of the troops in general. Ai was sure that Edward must have arranged everything,


the man had enough respect for himself.


“ deliver my message,


when can I meet Mr. Edward” Ai sent susan. He wants to discuss


the previous problem, he was afraid that Edward was busy so asked his servant to


inquire news.


“ well tuan” Susan soon


leave room.


The other with


Hardwin, the man was organizing his team but his mind floated towards


Ai. he was not calm away from the woman when there were people who had been


knowing the identity of Ai. from the way Edward was earlier the man could catch


that his presence was foreign and not expected.


“ sir everything is already


safe, just waiting for your next command” his men give


report.


“ we will help


as much as possible while waiting for news of the existence of prince Aric” said Hardwin.


“ I'll go around


for a moment, you take care of the other” Hardwin will find out for himself actually


how the condition of the city might be he could find clues to whereabouts


prince Arick.


“ well mr”


The man immediately


leaving the place, he would search for Ai's whereabouts as well. Something needs him


ask the woman.


On the other hand the new Edward


the finish of his patrol entered his room. It becomes a habit if


from morning till evening he will not be in the room. He's going on patrol


checking some things, only around dusk will return to the base.


“ what's looking for me?”


as soon as he arrived at the porch the man saw a servant who was


awaited him.


can meet with you” said Susan.


“ whose master?” Edward


frowning, the article there was no male guest who served one


woman.


“ someone who came out


from your room this morning” ah, so this waiter is in charge of serving


Duchess, Edward almost forgot his own orders.


“ ah, I alone


will there” Edward directly change the direction of the step. He's headed for Ai's place


behind him susan followed.


Tok tok, the sound of the door


her room. Ai opened the door immediately.


“ lord Edward,” Ai sedkit


surprised by the presence of a man who has an age almost the same as his older brother


his cousin.


“ I heard if


you are looking for me, Madam” said Edwad so politely.


“ pangil me sir, I


do not want to cause a commotion” Ai immediately correct do not get it wrong


call upon.


“ ah yes, mr” Edward


obey Ai's orders.


“ sign in anyone wants


I discussed” Ai immediately let the man in and immediately closed


doorway. Letting his servant wait outside the room.


“ how? When did I


can I meet that person?” Ai just went to Edward with


enquiries.


“ em, I've


giving a message, it is likely that tomorrow will only get the answer” replied Edward


quieter. He has indeed given news of the existence of the Duchess and what


want the Duchess to know. Just waiting for the next news can decide.


Not to forget about the man named Hardwin also Edward said inside


the message.


“ well, I can't


waiting too long” Ai still remains in her arrogance mode.


“ I understand tuan”


answer Edward politely. His attitude has vanished somewhere. That guy


he quickly became a loyal member of the Duchess.


“ oh yes how about


Hardwin, is his army safe?” Ai also asked her friend news, she remained vigilant


on the condition of the man.


“ everything is set


well” replied Edward, he still did not dare to express his dislike


on Hardwin. He will find the right time to persuade the Duchess


to immediately return the man.


“ I want to go around for a moment to see the atmosphere


city, do you have time?” ask the woman, since she came


I don't know how the city really is. Now there is time and people


which can help him why not.


“ of course sir,” Edward


will try to do whatever the Duchess wants.


Finally both people


he left the room and started to walk around. The night mood


the city feels so quiet, here at the curfew for the citizens of the city, the,


make the streets look lonely.


“ there is a range of how much


people who still live here?” Ai started the question.


“ almost half of


residents have been evacuated to the city of Nialu and other nearby towns. This city can


he said the outermost part of Bavaria, if war breaks out again then it will be very


alarming and threatening city” Edward replied as completely as possible.


“ how about


the rest why don't they want to go?” Ai continued.


“ partly guard cattle


and their fields and some intend to help the army, as it exists


here already resigned want how later the situation”


“ah yes, I heard only


in this city the Duke's troops are on guard, is it true?” back to the around


it has to do with Axton. Edward this time did not answer directly, even


his steps stopped for a moment.


“ right, Duke's troops


it's just being in town. But they keep it on the outermost, straight


facing enemy. Only occasionally do we change guard to make sure things are going


okay” Edward looks cute, he is so sympathetic with how


the Duke's troops.
