Before the banquet concluded, Lord Hels finally brought up the matter of the rewards, and the Lady beside him immediately set down her grape wine and pricked up her ears.
Lord Hels first once again highly praised Sir Ireya and her army's outstanding performance in the previous battle, thanking them for defeating the invaders and defending the Western Frontier.
He then announced that all the warriors who had gone to the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range, dead or alive, would each be given four gold lions as a bounty.
His words had scarcely finished before they were met with a round of applause from the assembly.
Because the recipients of Lord Hels's rewards were not only the five thousand led by Miss Rabbit but also the initial ten-thousand-strong army that had followed Marquis Kuren into battle, including those who had died, all were to receive the reward.
