Chapter 14 We are Willing to Give Our Life for You
After Wyatt's family entered the city, Wyatt exclaimed, "Eldoria feels completely different, like a withered tree comes to life again.
The streets were now filled with people, many of whom wore genuine smiles. Their eyes were no longer numb but filled with hope for the future.
"Tax reductions have given everyone hope, and of course, things have changed. This is all thanks to Lord Henry," Vincent said, beaming with joy. He was delighted to see such a transformation.
"Henry has done a great job," Wyatt praised. He was also happy to see his hometown improve.
"Wow! Isn't that Wyatt's family? It's been a while since they last visited the city," someone in the crowd exclaimed.
"They must have been summoned by Lord Henry. After all, Wyatt's family are true warriors."
"Only Lord Henry is worthy of having Wyatt's family by his side."
"Yes! Lord Henry is a great lord, and our life will only get better."
Since entering the city, Wyatt's family had heard such remarks several times, which made their expressions more serious.
When they arrived at the castle, they saw Henry waiting at the gate.
"You... You're Henry?"
Wyatt's family widened their eyes, finding it hard to believe the transformation of the young man before them. His attire exuded grandeur, something only a noble could wear.
"Haha... Uncle Wyatt, Aunt May, David, Charles, and Willow, don't you recognize me? I'm Henry," he said, approaching Wyatt and the others and leading them into the castle. "Let's go."
Along the way, Wyatt's group was in a daze. Henry's two-day absence had brought about such significant changes.
As they settled in the living room, they couldn't help but glance at Mila, especially focusing on her cat ears.
"Uncle Wyatt, I've been looking forward to your arrival," Henry said, ecstatic. He needed help with many of his plans.
"We never expected you to become a noble in the territory," Wyatt sighed.
"It was an opportunity given by an old man with other intentions," Henry shrugged.
Indeed, becoming a noble, along with the territory and Eldoria, in exchange for five glass cups was unimaginable on Earth.
"It's an opportunity but also a double-edged sword. Have you thought it completely?" Wyatt asked seriously.
Henry knew what he meant. If he couldn't resist the wheat-thieving bandits, his nobility would come to an end.
"I've thought about it. I need your help, Uncle Wyatt," Henry said sincerely.
He knew how capable Wyatt's family was, especially Uncle Wyatt, who could take down five thieves single-handedly, even with a broken foot, and save him.
"David! Charles! Brian! Adam! Zachary! Will you want to help me?"
Wyatt stood up, shouting, "I am a useless person. I should step aside and let the young ones take over."
"No, no, no..." Henry quickly said, "Uncle Wyatt, I need someone to manage things here, and you're the best one. I can make your broken foot walk normally again."
"What?" Ruby, David, Willow, and the others stared wide-eyed, eagerly looking at Henry, and exclaimed, "Henry, are you serious? Can you really make Wyatt walk like a normal person?"
Wyatt also looked at Henry with uncertainty, a hint of flashing in his eyes. No one wanted to be disabled.
"Of course, I can make Uncle Wyatt walk like a normal person right now," Henry nodded confidently.
"Then hurry, as long as you can make Dad walk, I can give my life to you," David and his brothers anxiously shouted.
Wyatt slapped on David's head and said sternly, "Don't be rude. It's good if it works, but we can't force it."
"Don't worry, it will be useful."
Henry smiled confidently, took out a key, and threw it to Mila, instructing, "Mila, go to the study and open the safe box. Bring me the box with the number ten."
Mila nodded, took the key, and went downstairs. She knew how to open the safe box, which Henry had taught her. As long as there were two keys and a password, it could be opened.
The crowd anxiously waited, and soon Mila came down with the long wooden box, obediently placed it in Henry's hands, and returned the key to him.
"Uncle Wyatt, come, have a seat."
Henry opened the box and took out a prosthetic right foot that he had ordered before. He had gone to pick it up after returning to Earth yesterday; it was originally intended as a token of gratitude.
"Alright!" Wyatt was a little nervous. He rolled up his pants, revealing his amputated leg.
Following the instructions, Henry attached the prosthetic to Wyatt's leg, made a few adjustments, and said confidently, "Uncle Wyatt, try standing up."
Someone swallowed nervously, and everyone watched Wyatt anxiously.
Wyatt took a deep breath and suddenly stood up, taking steps in the living room. Although his movements were a bit stiff, he could walk normally.
"Haha!" Wyatt laughed with joy, and David and his brothers shouted excitedly, "Dad can walk！"
Ruby and Willow's eyes filled with tears of joy as they watched Wyatt walk non-stop.
"Uncle Wyatt, practice a few more times, and you'll be walking like everyone else in no time," Henry adjusted the prosthetic again.
Wyatt nodded vigorously. He looked at his wife and children, then came to Henry, suddenly knelt on one knee, and his five sons, Ruby and Willow, followed.
"We are willing to give our lives to you, be forever loyal to you, become the sword in your hand, and cut off all enemies..."
Mila, who was on the side, also quietly knelt on one knee...
