Chapter 125 Chapter One
...So, the last Dragon Soul Envoy of the Xiulizhe family died.As for the unknown person who wanted to kidnap Nex Shulizhe and use war to conquer the chaotic country, it is still hidden in the veil of history, and the truth of its origin is still a mystery... (omitted) The person who swore to die The Marquis of Harshtel, who prevented Nex Shulizhe from concluding the Dragon Soul Envoy contract and saved the country, has been missing since then, and was proclaimed king thirty years later... (omitted) The war can be said to have come to an end, but thanks These last periods of the Soth and Jeppen battles may be regarded in many respects as unique wars, compared with the earlier minor wars.This is because the shadow of the power of the great race, the dragon, no longer casts a shadow over the wars of men.The names of Kigored and Kasaiple, who were once the nightmares of Jeppen, have become mere horror legends, to enjoy their glory...In this period, we can see the names that will always shine with the history of Baizos - the hero Sanson Fisher and the great sage Carl Hetant... (omitted in the middle) After the name of Archmage Hendrick, their debut really shined, which attracted countless attentions of contemporary people... Under the name of special, unite as one, and dedicate his sword in front of the royal family of Baizos, with all sincerity.This allows the Baizos royal family, which has been parasitic under the glory of King Lutanio for a long time, to become the leader of the country again, which makes Baizos a kingdom with modern significance... (omitted in the middle) Ed Ten Delierzi once stated that 'the previous Byzos could be regarded as an organized group of followers of the hero King Lutanio'. This sentence is really worth thinking over and over... Since the time of King Sean, true heroes have disappeared, and true nations have risen...

The forest on a winter night is dark. The constant smoke from the kettle was reddened by the campfire.I pulled the blanket around me up to my neck and lifted the water bottle.The sound of hot water being poured into the teacup sounded quietly.Gulululu. While smelling the tea, I looked around. A dark wood is certainly not much to look at.Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind that could freeze the nose, and the campfire immediately burst into sparks.In the dark woods, what caught my eyes was the flaming campfire and the stars shining brightly in the night sky. Also, the reflected light that shines from the broadsword. "Oh, really..." I can't help but sigh.What a bunch of stupid guys.How come they never learn from their failures?Is it so difficult to make some non-reflective treatment on the blade?Wouldn't it be enough to just smear some ash on it? Throwing the sticks into the campfire, I said, "Hey, Goblin, would you like a cup of tea?" Immediately there was a burst of screaming in the woods. "Squeak! Found!" "But, scary guy. What, what to do? Squeak, squeak!" This situation can really be described as ironic.I held the teacup with steam rising from it, exhaled from my mouth, and looked around. One by one the orcs came out from behind the trees.During the time I drank several sips of tea, as many as sixty broadswords appeared. hum.There really is just so much.They were all very large, and it seemed that they must have been selected after much selection. Those half-orcs kept looking at me with expressions of being caught in a dilemma.Having said that, they originally planned to sneak attack, but in the end they sneaked halfway and were discovered from a long distance away, so now they all look like they can neither attack nor escape.I calmly produced a stick that was burning in the fire.The orcs froze for a moment, but I shook the stick as if nothing had happened, and looked around at the orcs.One of them looked familiar. "Axu? It's a pleasure to meet you." Yakesu, wearing a black helmet, brandished a broadsword ferociously. "Squeak, squeak! The monster candlemaker! Today, I must get rid of you, squeak!" "Ah, is it? So you have this plan. Then do it quickly! It's late at night, and there is not much time left today, isn't it?" Yakesu lowered his wielding sword, kept blinking, and looked at me with a ridiculous expression.I put the firewood back, took a sip of tea, and waited for his answer. Yakesu looked like he had managed to speak out. "Uh, squeak! Wait! Where'd all the other guys go?" "Gululu. Tsk. Those other guys?" "Eyebeads! And elves, cheep! The woman with the trident! The archer! Squeak! Ogre warriors! Squeak! Where are the others?" I chuckled and put down my teacup. "Ah. You said those other guys, I thought those people were discovered." "Squeak? Found?" "I mean the man hiding behind me." Yakesu first looked at me with a dull expression.But after the rustling started behind me, his and the other orcs' faces turned blue with fright.In their tense hands, the broadsword trembled slightly. Puff puff puff.The group of people with loud footsteps formed a row next to me.There are really a lot of people.I looked to the left and right, and said, "Let me introduce you. From the left, it's Ricchu, Birchu, Hachu, and Babichu. And from the right, there are Naraqiu, Liqiu, Daoqiu, Simaluoqiu, Hantarqiu, Qiqiu, and Hajiu!Tsk.The last Hajiu is me. " Chichu Gege laughed.Uh uh.I'm almost like an orc.Why do these human names look like this?Yakesu opened his mouth wide in surprise and kept staring at us.And then, at last, a dreadful cry burst from his lips: "It's North, North, Cheep, the Shepherd of the North!" Li Chu giggled and said, "Wow, there are as many as fifty or sixty of these orcs! It's been a long time since I saw these guys near the northern pastures. Isn't it, Han Talqiu?" Han Taerqiu nodded quietly, and said: "Because these guys haven't come to attack our cattle recently. Could it be because we treated them too roughly? Anyway, long time no see! It's really nice to see you now! Happy." Next, Haqiu sneered and pulled out a dagger that looked scary. "Yeah, and it's been a while since I've skinned an orc with this." Haqiu drew his sword like a signal, and the other shepherds followed suit. And the sixty half-orcs began to show off their jade-like skin, trembling non-stop. "But, damn it! Squeak! Why did the northern shepherd come here? Squeak!" The orcs aimed their broadswords at me as if they were bows, ready to shoot at me.For now they were aiming at me with broadswords at a distance of about thirty cubits, which of course I must call a bow.I put down the blanket, still holding the teacup, and stood up slowly.In an instant, the distance between me and the goblin was about fifty cubits. ...it seemed impossible to stop them from retreating. "Are you going to use the lost ones?" "Squeak, squeak? What did you say?" "Gulu. Huh. I'm asking you, are you going to throw a big knife? Otherwise, how are you going to attack me when you stand so far away?" After I drank all the remaining tea in the cup, I slowly put it on the ground, and at this time, the orc had already started to back away quietly.Yakesu looked to the left and right, and then shouted like crazy: "You bastards! Although they are monsters, monster candlemakers and, cheep! Northern shepherds, but cheep! We are five times their size! Don't Scared! Squeak!" He is so stupid.Not five times, but six times.It's a pity that Yakesu's courage failed to achieve any effect, and all the orcs looked like they wanted to escape on the spot.Their posture was one of those ready to run as soon as someone yelled.no.I should be gentle with them. Well, I said affectionately with a trembling voice: "Ah, my dear half-orcs!" Maybe Yakesu didn't faint because he was a half-orc.Riqiu had already started to hiccup, while Naraqiu kept looking at me with a funny expression.I took a step forward, spread my arms, and said, "You friends with beautiful teeth, ah, my dear brothers! Please stop and listen to what I have to say." "Xiu, Xiu Qi? What did you drink just now?" Haqiu asked me in fear. When Biqiu heard it, he picked up the cup I had just put down and began to smell it carefully.I ignored them, and said to Yake: "Please, please listen to me first. We have maintained this sad and unfortunate relationship for a long time, and finally waited for this time to settle accounts. From now on, let our What do you think of the beautiful light that blooms a little bit like the fragrance of spring?" "Squeak! What, what are you talking about?" This is actually a very difficult thing.I have to get to the point slowly. "Okay, okay. Let me tell you something briefly, and you listen carefully. You have called some of the most powerful guys here, and running around in this season, there must be a lot of troublesome problems. Like the problem of preparing for the winter, you guys It must be a big loss. Therefore, I will give you food for the winter. The condition is: forget the unhappiness between us." "what?" "what are you talking about?" Rikyu and Aksu shouted at the same time.Are these two brothers who have been separated since childhood?Ok.It seems that I should bury this question in my heart.After I shrugged my shoulders to Liqiu, I said to Yake: "How about I give you four hundred cows? I will really give you four hundred cows, so from now on, stop chasing me gone." Those half-orcs all stopped their steps of retreating.Yakesu seemed to be in disbelief, and said, "Four, four hundred? Wow! Squeak! Four hundred cows?" Before I could answer, Liqiu had already started yelling in a northern accent: "Hey, you bastard! So you're going to buy our cows because you're going to give them to the orcs? It's outrageous! You want to give our cows to orcs?" "Well, since I've paid for it, it's my cow. I can do what I want, can't I?" "But no matter what, there is no such thing in the world! Give it to a half-orc, oh, God, Shankle!" Riku raised his arms to the sky and let out a cry.I burst out laughing, thinking of the scene I saw Liqiu in the pure heaven of Byzos Imperial City. At that time, Liqiu was sitting in Pure Heaven dejectedly, drinking the 'heartbreak wine' all the time.The reason is: after Gigored disappeared from the battlefield, the 400 cows that were supposed to be his food were faced with breaking the contract.In addition, they delayed the time in Xifei Yapanling and arrived later than the agreed time, so they couldn't get any money such as liquidated damages.When I suggested that I buy the whole herd, Richu almost kissed the back of my foot.Now he will be like this, just because he is very sad to give the cow to the orc, so it should not be his real intention.It seems that I should first unify everyone's opinions. I folded my hands on my chest and started to look at Riku with a slightly provocative look. "If you don't like this, now you just need to return the gems I paid for, and then take the cattle back to Baizos Imperial City." Riqiu, who was making exaggerated movements, was startled and looked at me.What should I do at this time to show a more sinister and cunning expression? "Ah, I was wrong. Anyway, there is no way to sell those cattle when you go back to Baixos. Well, it seems that you must drive these cattle back to the north. I am afraid it will be difficult. It is really difficult. Because now even The grass for the cows is almost gone. It may be that they all died on the way back. Hmm. What a pity. As long as those orcs sneak behind you, they should be able to get There are four hundred cows. Then, I am lucky that the money is still with me, and those half-orcs are also lucky to get four hundred cows. But you have lost a lot, and you must be very heartbroken!" Yakesu had a listening expression.Liqiu shook his hands and said, "I know, I know! Just do as you want! You bad boy." "Very well. So, Axy? What do you think of my proposal?" Seeing the sudden reversal of the situation, Yakexu stood still with a gaping expression at first.etc.Could this guy have listened to what I just said and felt that even if he ignored my proposal, it wouldn't have any effect?In other words: 1. Yakesu ignored my proposal.2. I take back the gems from Liqiu and return the cattle.3. Richu and the shepherds must go north with the cattle.4. On the way back, all the cattle died one after another.5. Therefore, those half-orcs only need to follow the shepherd... "Good! Squeak!" ... Valencia.You have worked so hard.It's really admirable that you take such good care of these guys.As expected of a god, no matter how you say it, he is different from humans. However, it took a lot of time to hand over all the cattle to the orcs.First of all, it is a big problem to bring more than sixty orcs to the valley where the cattle hide Followed behind), as soon as he reached the valley, Riqiu began to delay time.Because, Riqiu wanted to say goodbye to the herd of four hundred cows one by one. "Don't say goodbye again, okay?" "Wait, wait a minute. This cow was delivered by me. Because it was difficult to give birth at that time, I put my hand into its mother's body and tied it with a rope before pulling it out. Oh, this guy! I should have known You will be taken away by the orcs, and I will give up on you at that time!" "...Yeah. Is it over?" "Ah, wait! This cow, this bull calf! I only need to think of the time I saved him from the wolf's near-death..." Richu began to hug the bull calf, rubbing its whole body.Because it was night now, the herd of cattle didn't make any sound, they were all very quiet, only Riqiu's muttering to himself could be heard clearly.Those half-orcs were all furious, but because the other shepherds were watching them with murderous eyes, they could only squeak anxiously.But Yakesu simply sat on the rock with his legs hanging and roared.However, most of the time, Yakesu was peeking at the cows that filled the valley, and showed a satisfied expression. Whether eaten by dragons or orcs, the final destination of these cattle is the mouth of an animal anyway.It is a coincidence that these two situations are the same, but there is a difference.Wouldn't it be better to be eaten by dragons, but worse to be eaten by orcs? Finally, when the dawn was about to break, Riqiu backed away.Maybe it's because he can't stand the tired relationship anymore.Liqiu yawned one after another, but at the same time, he took another sad look at the cows all over the mountains and valleys. "Farewell..., Farewell..." I'm getting goosebumps, really!Yakexu looked at me with displeasure, and said to me: "Can I go now, Chi?" "Ah, yes. Thank you for keeping you waiting for a long time. You must abide by the agreement!" "Squeak! Of course! The revenge is over!" "Okay, okay. Ah, I have one more condition." "Squeak, what did you say?" "Hey, since you have food for the winter, let go of those mechanics who were caught in your cave. How?" Yakesu started to stare at me fiercely.hey-hey.How do you want to treat me with that look?Hey, I have witnessed twelve dragons fighting with my own eyes.Yakesu growled and nodded in agreement. "Squeak! Good!" "Very good. That's all. Then Mr. Riqiu?" Liqiu was still looking at the cows with a sad face until then, so I had to call him again. "what?" "Please drive the cattle to where these half-orcs are going. And please monitor these half-orcs and release all the mechanics." "What, what, what! You even want us to serve goblins?" The shepherds all looked at me angrily.Ha ha.This is a trick I learned from someone.Although he didn't teach me directly.However, this is the method of the guy named Taiban Hashik: Even if it is forced, let them act together. I nodded and said, "Otherwise, how would these half-orcs carry so many cattle? They are lucky not to be trampled to death by the herd of cattle. Besides, you can bring these cattle to you to feel at ease. Okay." Now, this is my last condition. And, if you help drive the cattle to the destination and monitor the release of the artisans imprisoned in the orc cave, then I can give you another one and The gemstones I gave you just now are exactly the same. Do you want them?" "What? Another one?" Instead of answering, I took a diamond out of the bag, threw it up, caught it again, and so on.The eyes of the shepherds and half-orcs started to dance up and down together.Hahaha!From the point of opening their mouths at the same time, the two groups of guys are really too similar. Probably when I threw it up for the fourth time, Riqiu intercepted the diamond from midair.I giggled, and Liqiu nodded with a gritted expression on his face, and said, "Okay! Okay! Really, when I go back, I must practice witchcraft and ask Shan Keli to exorcise evil spirits. That's it." The trip must be cursed." "Haha. Thank you for your hard work." I waved to the shepherds, and I waved to Aksy.Although the shepherds wrinkled their faces to accept my farewell, Yakesu didn't even look at me, and was only on high alert to those shepherds.I shrugged and turned to my horse. Ah, this is really nerve-wracking.The height of the horse is really too high, and it is not easy to step on the stirrups.It seems that I should adjust the rein rope.I sat on the horse and looked around the valley again. The shepherds and the half-orcs were looking at each other awkwardly. Behind them, four hundred bulls were roaring.On the other side of the valley, that is, in the east, the morning glow dyed the sky red.The strong backs of the herd then writhed red.They seem to be all awake now. "Okay, then I'm leaving. May you all have a peaceful trip!" Until that time, Rikyu was still competing with Aksu for staring at each other, and then he lowered his shoulders and looked back at me. "You can just curse at me, you boy! Goodbye!" The other shepherds also showed wry smiles and waved to me.I laughed and gave the stirrup a little kick. "Let's go, Thundermaster!" "Hee hee hee hee!" The thunder warrior let out a sharp hiss and started to gallop.The light silver mane is flowing, and in an instant, the valley has disappeared behind.After a while, I started walking up Central Avenue.Yeah, if you want to get used to this speed, I think it will take a long time! "Okay, Thundermaster! It's all day long, and we're going to race against the sun again. Let's go, head west!"
No matter how hard you struggle to survive, it is impossible to leave life without experiencing death.In the same way, even a thunder warrior cannot outrun the sun.Ok.My analogy seems to sound very depressed!I was depressed alone because of this thought, while looking at the night view of Erasmus City. so tired.Traveling should really be accompanied by a partner.Traveling alone seems to tire you out faster.This is because you have to bear everything by yourself.However, if you have companions, you can bear each other's safety and share each other's affairs, so of course you won't find it hard.How on earth did the dragon take on 'himself' 'alone'?There's nothing wrong with saying that we and dragons are on opposite extremes... really.I'm cranky again. Damn you bastard dragons, you damn bastard humans. Hoo hoo hoo. A bitter cold wind blew across the night roads of Erasmus City.Crack, clack, even the hooves of the thunderkeepers can't help but sound heavy.Although it is still early, the winter days are short and the sun has already set.Every thick window and heavy door was shut, so that I, the wanderer, could only wander my eyes in bewilderment.Not only was the surroundings quiet and dark, what was even more disturbing was that no one came out to move around at all.Since there was no one to ask directions, I had to follow my memory, which took a lot of time. So, by the time I reached the door of 'The Winds of Tramonica', it was about the time dinner was over.And I was already shivering with cold.Hope they keep at least some hot stew for the poor bums! When I stopped the thunder warrior, and when I dismounted and stood up, a voice shouted from inside the hotel: "Stinky girl! Where do you want to run to? Do you want to run away? Go to hell, stinky girl! Go to hell!" "Ahhh! Uncle, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong...Ahhh!" After a scream, there was a loud ping-pong sound of something breaking. I stood next to the horses, and just stood there listening to the noise from the hotel. "You bandit girl! I have been raising you and giving you food and clothing, but you not only don't want to repay the favor, but also hinder my business? You are going to die today. Damn it!" "Ahhh!" "Please don't, master. You'll kill the boy!" "Yeah, this kid has already admitted his mistake. Just stop." "Let go! Let go! This kind of stinky girl must let her die! Hey, this crazy girl! If you do this, do you think that pretentious man will come back? Why don't you accept that guest, why !" "Ahh! Uhhhhh!" ... This made my melancholy mood disappear all at once.Thank you so much!Instead, however, another emotion was roiling, and that was a big problem.I mounted the Thundermaster again.The thunder guard seemed to be a little surprised, and let out a snort. After sitting on the horse, I took a few deep breaths, and then drew out the giant sword.Clang.There was a sound from the sword that sounded great.I held my greatsword forward, pointing at the entrance of the Tramonica Winds. Hoo, hoo.Hello, boss.You are about to meet the guests who walk in the door in the most gorgeous way after opening today.And just might be the last guest you meet.I can't guarantee that this hotel building will still exist by tomorrow morning. I kicked Thundermaster in the stomach. "Ah ah ah ah!" "Hee hee hee hee!" In the brief moment I continued to ride into the hall after destroying the door of the Tramonica, a thought flashed through my mind very quickly.Maybe it would be better to live alone like a dragon. "Let me see. Let me see..." "Ahhhhhh..." "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Does it hurt? Just bear with it. After rubbing this, it will heal quickly." I dab the healing potion on Merian's forehead.Although this is the treatment just after the injury, if you are not careful, there may still be scars.This is really disturbing.Whenever Merian frowned and tried to prevent me from touching the wound, I would shake my shoulders. It was not easy to find a working chair in this completely destroyed hall.So, I just brought a wine barrel, let Merian sit down, and treated her wound.God, there is such a bastard who uses a poker to whip a girl's forehead.And he beat his niece! The guy who 'had a way of whipping his niece with a poker' yelled, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Gone!" "Really? If the carrot is gone, it should bite something else." "Master, sir! Ouch, please, please! Shh, shhh!" "Hey. That's a horse. . . It was a bull, but at least it wasn't a chicken. Why are you booing?" The boss struggled with a blue face.Now, this inhuman guy is tied up all over, hanging from a torch holder on the wall, and on his belt are several carrots that I brought from the kitchen.And the thunder guard stood in front of him, biting off the carrot with an elegant posture. The louder he chewed, the faster the boss's face turned red.While taking out the bandage, I comforted the boss in a very serious tone: "Your one was bitten by a horse. This kind of experience is not common, and it will definitely stay in my mind for a long time. Don't struggle. Move, and experience this brand-new experience obediently? Don’t you have any curiosity about experiencing a brand-new experience?” "Grandpa! Ugh!" hiss!There was a tearing sound.Finally bitten?I turned my head and wanted to shout hooray, but when I looked, I saw the boss's crotch was split in half.After the crotch was torn, all the carrots fell out, so the Thunderkeeper was eating his dinner with his head down. "Hey. Boss. It's all right. Only the pants are torn. Your thing is still there...huh? Huh? Hey, are you passed out?" The boss was spitting out foam from his mouth, and had already passed out.Although Merian looked anxiously at the unconscious man whose crotch was torn and hung on the wall.But she can't seem to watch anxiously for long. "Heck!" "Uh, uh. Don't laugh. I'm going to get a bandage. Okay, then, uh. The bandage is knotted. . . . That's it. Okay, how's it going. Are you all right?" Merian opened her eyes, gently stroked the bandages wrapped around her forehead, and frowned. "Does it hurt? Uh, are you in unbearable pain? Wait. Are there any unbroken wine bottles here?" I turned around to look for wine to replace the painkiller, at this moment, Merian's hand that was touching her forehead dropped and took mine.Wow, it's like the feeling of wax dripping on the back of your hand!How could her hands be so hot? "Merian?" "Xiu Qi... Xiu Qi...?" My body slowly leaned forward as Merian pulled my hand.After a while, I half-shrunk and bent my upper body, and was hugged by Merian sitting on the wine barrel. "Merian?" Melian strokes my back.With a trembling voice, she said, "It's true...you're really back. Thank you." "Thank you. I'm really sorry I didn't come back sooner." "That's pretty quick. Really. You're back really soon." After I patted Merian on the shoulder, I gently pushed her away. "If you keep rubbing your head on my shoulder like that, the wound will be more serious, and maybe when you get married, you may not be able to marry because of this scar!" "...Anyway, I'm just a hotel girl." "That's as of today." "Ok?" "I'll explain it to you tomorrow. Sit here and don't move. I'm starving. I'm starving at noon, too, and I've walked too much. I'll look for an unbroken bowl." "Ah, I'm here to look for it." "Hey, hey! Just trust me. I'm a pretty good cook! I said that even elves have eaten my cooking, do you believe me?" Merian opened her eyes wide, and then burst out laughing immediately. "Ah, you mean the elf back then. Although I've heard all kinds of adventure stories from the drinkers in the store, this is the first time I've heard of cooking something for the elves." "Ah, is it? It's my first experience too." I giggled and began to check the stove mouth.I managed to light the fire.Then I smashed the tables and chairs without guilt to make firewood.Merian just opened her eyes and didn't say anything. After a burst of knocking noise, red sparks began to flicker in the stove.I began to grunt and haw to find food ingredients and start cooking.Merian burst out laughing, and said, "You are really good at juggling knives." "Really? Haha. Even the priests of the sword god Raiti have recognized my knives with knives." "Leiti's priest? Haha." She seemed to think I was joking.But it's absolutely true.The priests of the Sword God Leti have indeed used all their strength to compete with me in swordsmanship...
"Damn it! It's the priests of Leti!" Shan Sen's shout resounded through the whole mountain, forming an echo and sending it back.Wen Chai drew out his long sword, and said in a low voice, "Thank you so much for telling me." Shan Sen showed an embarrassed expression when he heard Wen Chai's sarcasm.I frowned and looked up. The Marquis was looking down at us with a cold expression.And behind the hill where he was standing, the priests of Leti drew their swords one by one and appeared.Then, on the hill, the Marquis and more than thirty priests of Leti stood there and looked down at us. Ghisien roared: "Ahem, ahem! Marquis, you bastard! Are you, are you here to seek death?" The Marquis did not answer Giseon's words.He looked back and said to the priests, "Get rid of them. Leave none!" Leti's priests did not answer.After the Marquis disappeared directly behind the hill, Leti's priests began to slowly walk down in our direction.Karl hurriedly shouted: "What are you planning in your mind? Why do you obey the orders of the Marquis?" Without any answer, they continued to walk over.At this time, Alvnaid said in a trembling voice: "I didn't see him." "what?" "Leiti's mouth... didn't see the white-haired priest. Could it be that he was taken hostage?" "what!" That's right.I didn't see the tough white-haired priest.Then, Leti's priests would have no choice but to attack!Then... Karl shouted loudly: "Hey, everyone! Then, you and we will work together to rescue the hostages. How about it? " The priests stopped in their tracks.However, the blond priest among them stepped forward and said gloomily, "I'm sorry, Ghisien Byzos." Ghisien just looked at him with a fierce expression and didn't answer.The blond priest said indifferently: "We chose the Marquis of Harshtel." "Yes, I know." Great.Giseon said he knew.But I still don't know why they chose Marquis.I look back at Githion.For a split second, I was dumbfounded by the hostility on his face.Ghisien said: "Ahem. Just get rid of us all, yes, then no one can prove Hashtel, ahem, the Marquis' crime..." The blond priest nodded. "We're doing this for the country." "For...the country?" "If you return to the capital, it is inevitable that there will be a confrontation between the royal family and the Marquis. But the Marquis is the elder of the House of Lords, so the royal family may confront the entire House of Lords. In a country at war , it’s best not to have this happen.” I thought Githion was going to yell it out.However, Ghisien coughed violently, and instead, Carl yelled: "And then! Because the crime of rebellion is as long as anyone involved is guilty, the Abbey of Amiens can't be exonerated, right?" "...Frankly speaking, I don't deny that I have this consideration. Please think about it. If the royal family is opposed to the aristocracy and the religious world, what kind of benefits will this have for the current country? Of course it will not be beneficial. On the contrary, it will only It just caused extreme chaos. The royal family is already struggling with the war with Jeppen." "Light, is it possible that the Tower of Light will stay out of it?" Alvnaid shouted this sentence with all his strength, but the blond priest shook his head. "Because of the Tower of Light, we can't let you go back. You are a wizard, you should be a member of the guild, right? If you go back to the Tower of Light and tell the whole story, then the Tower of Light, which has been silent all the time, will definitely Participate in this confrontation. Then things will get out of hand." Alvnaid stared at the priest gaping.The blond priest said with a tired expression: "And the same is true for the dwarves beater Isaihand Eindev. If you let the dwarves in this country rise up, Byzos will be turned upside down." Esaihand smiled cruelly and said, "Really? How do you know that I won't turn a blind eye to the Marquis of Harshtel and disturb Byzos?" "Because you are a dwarf." At this moment, Giseon said, "So..." Ghisien's face was so blue that it seemed that he could no longer find any color.However, I found that after the severe cough just now, he no longer coughed.吉西恩冷静地说：“反正我是废太子，其他人也都只是默默无闻的冒险家，所以没有必要让这些人来动摇国家，是这个意思吧？” “您好像很喜欢下一些悲情的结论。” “你们这些人竟然如此小看王室！” 那名祭司点了点头，阴沉地说：“拜索斯并不是国王的国家。在这片领土之内，有些种族，像精灵或矮人，他们不接受国王统治，这一点就已经包含在这矛盾里了。 真正的国王从第四代耶里涅大王之后，就没有再出现过了。拜索斯应该说是贵族们的国家。 " “你们刚才对我敬拜过……” 吉西恩的这句话虽然低沉，但是那位金发祭司的脸上却转变成被剑刺到的表情。他一面颤抖着太阳穴，一面俯视吉西恩。吉西恩说道：“是因为那个关系吗？所以你们更费劲地想要无视于王族？” “您是正义的……这我承认是。而我们想做的事不合正义，这我也……” 那位金发祭司费力地讲出话来。而他那一直上下抖动的肩膀，紧抓住了我的目光。 “正义是美好的，但它是个无常的名号，只有力量与其同在的时候，才有美好存在啊。吉西恩·拜索斯。” “你的意思是，你们在人类的正义之外可以为所欲为？只因为你们是神的剑？” “是的。正如同刚才您所说的，你们全都是默默无闻的冒险家。 你以为贵族院真的只会相信在宫外流浪之后回宫的恶名鼎鼎王子，以及不知从何处冒出来的一些流浪者的话，而逼迫德高望重的贵族哈修泰尔侯爵家族吗？现在我们就是想要阻止拜索斯形成乱局。 " “可，可是那是事实啊！侯爵的所作所为全都是事实……” 妮莉亚凄切激动地喊着，但是那位金发祭司只是更加皱紧眉头。 “这和事实有无并没有关联。” "what?" “这位仕女，我猜想，可能你的同伴们会觉得你的纯真很有魅力。” 妮莉亚圆睁着她的眼睛。可是她立刻眯起眼睛，瞪着那位金发祭司。 “……你是在暗指我很愚蠢。什么意思呢？” “这和事实有无并没有关联，即使是贵族院，他们也不可能让王室下令，将素有威望的贵族处刑。因为这样等于是贵族院屈从于王室。贵族们会认为，如果王室开了先例，像哈修泰尔这种名门家族都被轻易处置，那么王室随时都可以逼迫贵族。” 妮莉亚闭上嘴巴不说话。他妈的，说什么国王是骑士中的骑士，而贵族们生来就是国王的骑士？说得可真好听！他们其实是互相不露空隙，即使是一小块的权力，也不想被抢夺走，如此互相牵制着！ 还有……还有，你是什么东西啊！你身为一个奉献给神的人，居然这么详细地说明政治上的东西，你这个祭司到底是在干嘛！don't you know你在对妮莉亚说明时的态度，已经说明了不少事！ 那位金发祭司冷漠地说：“我们会弄得像是你们全都是在阻止克拉德美索时死掉的。把你们当成国家的恩人，至少，这样可以光耀你们的名誉。” 那位金发祭司把袍子衣角翻到背后。随即，闪闪发光的长剑就握在他手上，指着我们。 “即使我建议你们自杀，你们应该也是不会接受吧？” 我、杉森和温柴同时伸出剑来，往前站出去。卡尔往后退，举起弓，而亚夫奈德则是立刻开始念咒语。妮莉亚举起了三又戟。那位金发祭司叹了一口气，说道：“一鼓作气杀了他们，尽量别让他们痛苦！” 雷提的祭司们纷纷往前滑下山坡。 “这些混蛋！” 我大喊着，在往前冲出去的那一瞬间，才发觉到我是用很妙的姿势，停滞在半空中。然后在我还没来得及好好品尝飞行的感觉时，地板就已经用很快的速度接近我了。boom!哎唷，我的头啊！ 我一面揉着头，一面站起来，就发现有一道觉得十分有趣的目光射向我。 “你的起床动作怎么这么妙？” 原来是梅莉安，站在从窗外歪斜地射下的早晨阳光中，面带着微笑。她把双手放在膝盖上，坐在地板上看着我。原来是一场梦！真是的，好可怕的梦。我整个头疼痛不已。呼呜呜。 我用一只手抚摸头上的肿包，另一只手拄着冰冷的房间地板，说道：“你在这里做什么啊？” “我在看人睡觉。” “哈哈。看来你好像事先就知道我会这样轰轰烈烈地起床。” 梅莉安嘻嘻笑了出来，说道：“刚才我看你一直边睡边哼哼呻吟。你是不是做了噩梦？” 如果说是噩梦，还真是噩梦。我无力地笑着抬头看梅莉安。因为从旁边斜射下来的阳光的关系，她的右侧脸庞呈现一道明显的鼻子阴影。让人感觉梅莉安的脸孔很陌生。 “记忆乃是夜之帝王，以梦现身时，能支配万物，我刚才就是在亲身实验这个理论。” “……看来，你做噩梦了！” “你把重点归纳得很好哦。” 梅莉安露出微笑，站了起来。她打开房门，一面走出去，一面说道：“你既然已经起床了，就先梳洗再下来吧。还有，下来的时候，要记得穿得整齐一点。” “……呃呃。你是因为把我全看光了，才这样说的吗？你干嘛叫我穿整齐一点啊？” 梅莉安从门外格格笑着说：“反正我以前都看过了。赶快下来吧。警备队员们正在等着呢。” “警备队员？” 我穿好衣服，一走下楼梯，就听到人们闹哄哄的声音。我站在楼梯顶端，俯视大厅。 大厅仍然还留有昨晚骚动的痕迹。Wow.虽然那是我做的行为，但我真的破坏得很彻底。我一面在心里觉得自己很厉害，一面环视四周围，便在那片废墟之中，看到一些像是伊拉姆斯市警备队员的人站在那里。他们环视被弄得乱七八糟的大厅，个个都露出难以置信的表情。而昨晚被吊在墙上的老板，则是坐在地上，正在哼哼呻吟着接受警备队员的治疗。几名警备队员看着站在大厅一角的御雷者，赞叹着：“哇啊！这匹马真是不错！” 而其他警备队员之中的一位，则是拿着压扁的青铜烛台，用畏惧的语气说： “这到底是怎么弄的？是用什么把它打成这样的？” 不过，这些人也未免出动得太快了吧。昨晚的骚动竟然到了今天早上才出动？此时，坐在地上的老板喊着：“在，在那里！他从那里下来了！” 那时候警备队员们才发现到一直站在昏暗的楼梯顶端的我。警备队员们在刹那间都惊慌地握住战戟。我一面听着武器举起的当唧响声，一面下到楼梯口，随即其中一个像是带头的男子用啼笑皆非的语气说道：“什么啊？他只不过是个年轻小伙子嘛！” hum.他们好像因为楼梯顶端太过昏暗，所以错看了我的模样。 其他队员们也一副啼笑皆非的表情，一下子看看我，一下子又看看老板。老板呻吟着点了点头，随即，那名带头的男子就放下了原本紧握住的战戟，开始摸着他的下巴。他说道：“这可真是怪了。闹出这种骚动的家伙居然连逃都不逃，而且还睡了一觉，这已经够不可思议了，而且犯人竟然是这种小鬼？到底这是怎么一回事啊？” 我留意注视着那名男子在摸下巴的动作，说道：“啊，您好像是因为一大早就出动，所以没时间刮胡子。我叫修奇·尼德法。早安！” “你在高兴什么啊？你这家伙，你一个人吗？” 真是的，这个人见面第一句话就这么凶！I nodded.随即，那名带头的人就摇了摇头，说道：“真是令人难以置信。好。先将你羁押在警备部。快放下武器。” 要我放下武器？那我当然是很乐意。我用慎重的表情，长长地伸出舌头，试验它上下运动的性能。也就是说，我对他吐了吐舌头。 那名带头的人突然受到嘲弄之后，稍微张着嘴巴，用惊讶的眼神看我。 “舌头是我最强的武器。俗语说，三寸不烂之舌胜过一把剑。” “这可恶家伙！” 这名男子的拳头立刻往前飞来。Snapped!hum.比起杉森的拳头力道，这简直就是在搔痒嘛。在他收回拳头的那一瞬间，我冷冷地笑着说道：“是你先打的吧？” "What's the meaning?" “我说，是你这边先打的。所以这可是正当防卫行为。” 我根本不让那名吃惊的男子有空档说话，立刻揪住他的领口，往上提起。我听到周围的尖叫声，以及比周围尖叫声还要尖锐的那名男子的尖叫声，然后我开始抓着他转圆圈。一直转到发出风声之后，我就把他摔到地上，随即，那名男子连站都没办法站稳，就重重地跌坐在地上。boom!他坐在地上之后，开始往左右摇晃他的头。 “这，这个可恶家伙！” 警备队员们全都一齐喊出怪声，在他们举起战戟的那一瞬间，我双手交叉在胸前，喊着：“攻击国王的骑士乃是叛乱罪！” "what?" 警备队员们手上所持的战戟突然停顿下来，他们的脸色按照个人体质的不同，开始呈现出各式各样的颜色。我格格笑着从袋子里翻找出勋章，在脸孔面前摇晃了几下。看着勋章的那些警备队员们的脸色，个个都发黑了。 我面向那些脸色发黑的脸孔，展开了一场训话。 “各位，你们只要看到那匹雄健的马，就应该知道了，不是吗？而且你们看到我制造出这种骚动却还很泰然，你们早就该看出来了才对啊。因为，我这小鬼一定是有什么可靠的权力，才敢趾高气昂的，不是吗？唉，该死的权力！这种东西就像抹布一样，越是用它，就会越脏，但是有了它，却一定会去用它。咳，呸！” 警备队员们对于我问的问题，吃力地问道：“国，国王的骑士？请问你是……贵族吗？” “啊啊，我真的用不惯这个名字，不过，我还是再自我介绍一次好了。我是尼德法伯爵家的修奇·尼德法。” dad!您可以高兴了吧。这是尼德法伯爵家第一次的宣言。而且是尼德法伯爵家代替国王行使的第一次为民服务。因为，这是在救国王的国民梅莉安，不是吗？嗯哈哈哈！ “我身为国王的骑士，代替国王，来惩治折磨自己侄女的恶劣旅馆老板。这家伙残酷地使唤侄女，这件事身为同乡人的你们，应该是更清楚才对吧？好了，现在我问各位，你们要攻击我这个国王的骑士，来背叛王室吗？” 刚才一屁股坐在地上的警备队员带头人，像是如坐针毡般赶紧站起来。他用很有礼貌的动作敬礼，他这副模样还是可以看出他不久前才失去平衡跌坐在地上。 “我千不该万不该！我会以虐待青少年的罪名，立刻逮捕'特拉摩尼卡之风'旅馆的老板！” 嗯，这个时候，我当然是不能用修奇式的回答方式来答话！我以尼德法伯爵家的第一代伯爵身份，严谨地说道：“您这是优秀的警备队员所具备的行事态度。伊拉姆斯市的未来是光明的。我等一下一定会去找市长大人禀报此事。” 我敢说，杰米妮要是看到现在的我，一定会笑到昏厥过去。不过，那名带头的警备队员又再一次敬了一个快把额头弄伤的举手礼。 “必胜！啊，不是，谢谢您！” 过了一会儿，旅馆老板就被捆绑起来，正要被警备队员带走，我坐到倒放的酒桶上，一面悬腿摇晃着，一面格格笑着观赏这一幕。警备队员们和老板都走了之后，我回头一看，就看到梅莉安表情呆滞地站在大厅角落看着我。 “梅莉安？” 她像是刚睡醒似的，肩膀惊颤了一下，随即立刻低下头来。 “伯，伯爵大人……” Uh uh.看来还是'蜡烛骑士'或者'半兽人的悲剧'这些称号比较适合我，'修奇伯爵大人'好像不怎么适合我。我把腿举到酒桶上面，咻地转了半圈。Uh!my ass! “喂，你该不会以为你那样叫我，我会很高兴吧？” 梅莉安的表情变得很高兴。她用右手的食指和姆指拉了拉下嘴唇，说道：“可是，我知道你是伯爵，就无法继续叫你修奇了啊。” “嗯，是吗？你现在叫过一次就行了。以后就叫我修奇吧。” “好。修奇，可是，这是怎么一回事啊？” “你是说我怎么当上伯爵的？说来话长。简单地说，我为国家立了功，所以获封爵位。” “真令人惊讶……，真的。跟那些来往这里的别脚冒险家相比，你还真是了不起呢。你是真正的冒险家。” 我眯了一边眼睛之后，对梅莉安做了一个手势。 “哈哈。好，那么你坐在那里一下。” "Ok?" “我要你坐那里，嗯。那把椅子应该没坏吧。因为我有话要说，你坐着吧。我不是要谈早餐吃什么好的这类复杂微妙的事，所以你大可放心。” 梅莉安嘻嘻笑着拉了椅子坐到我对面。我在讲话之前，干咳了几声。早上总是令人觉得口渴。 “我可以给你机会。说起来，我真的长大很多。居然已经可以给别人一个转换人生的机会。哼嗯。我要你自己来判断，看你是否要抓住这个机会。” “机会？什么意思呢？” “嗯。首先，如果你不想离开这个都市，我可以让这间店变成是你的。啊，绝对不是不合法的事。我的意思是，可以把这间店买下来给你。而如果你对经营旅馆没有自信，说得也是，你年纪还小，对你来说这一定是不容易。可是，你应该是找不到其他的保护人吧？” "Ok……" “你有男友吗？” 梅莉安紧盯着我，然后摇了摇头。 “好。我认识一个很优秀的人。我在想，要不要把你交付给他。 嗯，他虽然不是什么有钱人，可是个性不错。他可能没办法让你养尊处优，不过，他应该可以让你过得心情舒坦。 " “你这是在做媒人吗？” “哦，没这回事。我不是说过了，我是在帮你找保护人。我是打算把你托付给他，直到你长大到足以去寻找自己的路为止。哈哈，真是的。这种话是上了年纪的人才会说的话，可是，由一个和你年纪差不多的男孩子口中讲出来，听来实在是很怪异，是吧？” 梅莉安又开始拉她的下嘴唇了。所以，她的答话听来有些不清楚。 “我不知道。这实在是太突然了。” “这我能理解。你慢慢考虑吧。我想要现在去找市长，表明我的身份，讨论如何处置老板。在这段时间里，你好好考虑吧。” “我知道了。对了，你应该先吃点早餐吧？” “没关系。我进到市长官邸，再去吃他一顿吧。我应该给伊拉姆斯市长大人一个招待尼德法伯爵的机会。” “啊，啊。是啊。因为你是伯爵大人……” “很可笑吧？哈哈。可是，这是不得已的。因为，在礼貌上，我进到一个都市或领地，就得去向当地市长或领主打声招呼。啊，对了，你要不要一起去？” “啊，不。我没关系。嗯，你现在是以伯爵身份去见市长大人，是吧？” “嗯……当然是啊。” “我知道了。我怎么敢跟着去。呵呵。你不要露出那种抱歉的表情。我能理解。而且这也没什么啊。” 我没有回答，而是跳下酒桶，把手指放到嘴边吹口哨。Hush!站在大厅角落的御雷者可真乖，它立刻走了过来。 我骑上马，一面走出大门，一面往后看了一眼。梅莉安呆坐在空荡荡的大厅之中，一副惊慌与感叹交杂的复杂表情。她独自坐在形同废墟的大厅之中的模样，简直就像是在显示她现在的处境。真是令人觉得怜惜。可是，在她脸上浮现的希望却让我满怀感动。哈哈，那份希望的原因正是因为我的缘故吧？梅莉安，你不要担心。我会帮助你的。 我昨晚的那个想法要暂时保留了。我们是不可能像龙那样活着的。至少，梅莉安是不可能做得到的。我的意思是，他人的亲切会让人多开心啊。这完全不同于那时候对伊露莉是否帮忙都不在意，还有杰伦特，一帮忙就立刻勃然大怒的基果雷德……因为，梅莉安是人类。 即使身处废墟之中，也怀着希望在笑的人类梅莉安举起手来。 “快去快回吧。” 我也对她摇了摇手之后，就高兴地出发了。 “呀啊！走吧，御雷者！” Uh!我错了。我在兴高采烈之余，就不顾一切地奔驰出去。可是，我不知道市政府在哪里啊！
The forest on a winter night is dark. The constant smoke from the kettle was reddened by the campfire.I pulled the blanket around me up to my neck and lifted the water bottle.The sound of hot water being poured into the teacup sounded quietly.Gulululu. While smelling the tea, I looked around. A dark wood is certainly not much to look at.Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind that could freeze the nose, and the campfire immediately burst into sparks.In the dark woods, what caught my eyes was the flaming campfire and the stars shining brightly in the night sky. Also, the reflected light that shines from the broadsword. "Oh, really..." I can't help but sigh.What a bunch of stupid guys.How come they never learn from their failures?Is it so difficult to make some non-reflective treatment on the blade?Wouldn't it be enough to just smear some ash on it? Throwing the sticks into the campfire, I said, "Hey, Goblin, would you like a cup of tea?" Immediately there was a burst of screaming in the woods. "Squeak! Found!" "But, scary guy. What, what to do? Squeak, squeak!" This situation can really be described as ironic.I held the teacup with steam rising from it, exhaled from my mouth, and looked around. One by one the orcs came out from behind the trees.During the time I drank several sips of tea, as many as sixty broadswords appeared. hum.There really is just so much.They were all very large, and it seemed that they must have been selected after much selection. Those half-orcs kept looking at me with expressions of being caught in a dilemma.Having said that, they originally planned to sneak attack, but in the end they sneaked halfway and were discovered from a long distance away, so now they all look like they can neither attack nor escape.I calmly produced a stick that was burning in the fire.The orcs froze for a moment, but I shook the stick as if nothing had happened, and looked around at the orcs.One of them looked familiar. "Axu? It's a pleasure to meet you." Yakesu, wearing a black helmet, brandished a broadsword ferociously. "Squeak, squeak! The monster candlemaker! Today, I must get rid of you, squeak!" "Ah, is it? So you have this plan. Then do it quickly! It's late at night, and there is not much time left today, isn't it?" Yakesu lowered his wielding sword, kept blinking, and looked at me with a ridiculous expression.I put the firewood back, took a sip of tea, and waited for his answer. Yakesu looked like he had managed to speak out. "Uh, squeak! Wait! Where'd all the other guys go?" "Gululu. Tsk. Those other guys?" "Eyebeads! And elves, cheep! The woman with the trident! The archer! Squeak! Ogre warriors! Squeak! Where are the others?" I chuckled and put down my teacup. "Ah. You said those other guys, I thought those people were discovered." "Squeak? Found?" "I mean the man hiding behind me." Yakesu first looked at me with a dull expression.But after the rustling started behind me, his and the other orcs' faces turned blue with fright.In their tense hands, the broadsword trembled slightly. Puff puff puff.The group of people with loud footsteps formed a row next to me.There are really a lot of people.I looked to the left and right, and said, "Let me introduce you. From the left, it's Ricchu, Birchu, Hachu, and Babichu. And from the right, there are Naraqiu, Liqiu, Daoqiu, Simaluoqiu, Hantarqiu, Qiqiu, and Hajiu!Tsk.The last Hajiu is me. " Chichu Gege laughed.Uh uh.I'm almost like an orc.Why do these human names look like this?Yakesu opened his mouth wide in surprise and kept staring at us.And then, at last, a dreadful cry burst from his lips: "It's North, North, Cheep, the Shepherd of the North!" Li Chu giggled and said, "Wow, there are as many as fifty or sixty of these orcs! It's been a long time since I saw these guys near the northern pastures. Isn't it, Han Talqiu?" Han Taerqiu nodded quietly, and said: "Because these guys haven't come to attack our cattle recently. Could it be because we treated them too roughly? Anyway, long time no see! It's really nice to see you now! Happy." Next, Haqiu sneered and pulled out a dagger that looked scary. "Yeah, and it's been a while since I've skinned an orc with this." Haqiu drew his sword like a signal, and the other shepherds followed suit. And the sixty half-orcs began to show off their jade-like skin, trembling non-stop. "But, damn it! Squeak! Why did the northern shepherd come here? Squeak!" The orcs aimed their broadswords at me as if they were bows, ready to shoot at me.For now they were aiming at me with broadswords at a distance of about thirty cubits, which of course I must call a bow.I put down the blanket, still holding the teacup, and stood up slowly.In an instant, the distance between me and the goblin was about fifty cubits. ...it seemed impossible to stop them from retreating. "Are you going to use the lost ones?" "Squeak, squeak? What did you say?" "Gulu. Huh. I'm asking you, are you going to throw a big knife? Otherwise, how are you going to attack me when you stand so far away?" After I drank all the remaining tea in the cup, I slowly put it on the ground, and at this time, the orc had already started to back away quietly.Yakesu looked to the left and right, and then shouted like crazy: "You bastards! Although they are monsters, monster candlemakers and, cheep! Northern shepherds, but cheep! We are five times their size! Don't Scared! Squeak!" He is so stupid.Not five times, but six times.It's a pity that Yakesu's courage failed to achieve any effect, and all the orcs looked like they wanted to escape on the spot.Their posture was one of those ready to run as soon as someone yelled.no.I should be gentle with them. Well, I said affectionately with a trembling voice: "Ah, my dear half-orcs!" Maybe Yakesu didn't faint because he was a half-orc.Riqiu had already started to hiccup, while Naraqiu kept looking at me with a funny expression.I took a step forward, spread my arms, and said, "You friends with beautiful teeth, ah, my dear brothers! Please stop and listen to what I have to say." "Xiu, Xiu Qi? What did you drink just now?" Haqiu asked me in fear. When Biqiu heard it, he picked up the cup I had just put down and began to smell it carefully.I ignored them, and said to Yake: "Please, please listen to me first. We have maintained this sad and unfortunate relationship for a long time, and finally waited for this time to settle accounts. From now on, let our What do you think of the beautiful light that blooms a little bit like the fragrance of spring?" "Squeak! What, what are you talking about?" This is actually a very difficult thing.I have to get to the point slowly. "Okay, okay. Let me tell you something briefly, and you listen carefully. You have called some of the most powerful guys here, and running around in this season, there must be a lot of troublesome problems. Like the problem of preparing for the winter, you guys It must be a big loss. Therefore, I will give you food for the winter. The condition is: forget the unhappiness between us." "what?" "what are you talking about?" Rikyu and Aksu shouted at the same time.Are these two brothers who have been separated since childhood?Ok.It seems that I should bury this question in my heart.After I shrugged my shoulders to Liqiu, I said to Yake: "How about I give you four hundred cows? I will really give you four hundred cows, so from now on, stop chasing me gone." Those half-orcs all stopped their steps of retreating.Yakesu seemed to be in disbelief, and said, "Four, four hundred? Wow! Squeak! Four hundred cows?" Before I could answer, Liqiu had already started yelling in a northern accent: "Hey, you bastard! So you're going to buy our cows because you're going to give them to the orcs? It's outrageous! You want to give our cows to orcs?" "Well, since I've paid for it, it's my cow. I can do what I want, can't I?" "But no matter what, there is no such thing in the world! Give it to a half-orc, oh, God, Shankle!" Riku raised his arms to the sky and let out a cry.I burst out laughing, thinking of the scene I saw Liqiu in the pure heaven of Byzos Imperial City. At that time, Liqiu was sitting in Pure Heaven dejectedly, drinking the 'heartbreak wine' all the time.The reason is: after Gigored disappeared from the battlefield, the 400 cows that were supposed to be his food were faced with breaking the contract.In addition, they delayed the time in Xifei Yapanling and arrived later than the agreed time, so they couldn't get any money such as liquidated damages.When I suggested that I buy the whole herd, Richu almost kissed the back of my foot.Now he will be like this, just because he is very sad to give the cow to the orc, so it should not be his real intention.It seems that I should first unify everyone's opinions. I folded my hands on my chest and started to look at Riku with a slightly provocative look. "If you don't like this, now you just need to return the gems I paid for, and then take the cattle back to Baizos Imperial City." Riqiu, who was making exaggerated movements, was startled and looked at me.What should I do at this time to show a more sinister and cunning expression? "Ah, I was wrong. Anyway, there is no way to sell those cattle when you go back to Baixos. Well, it seems that you must drive these cattle back to the north. I am afraid it will be difficult. It is really difficult. Because now even The grass for the cows is almost gone. It may be that they all died on the way back. Hmm. What a pity. As long as those orcs sneak behind you, they should be able to get There are four hundred cows. Then, I am lucky that the money is still with me, and those half-orcs are also lucky to get four hundred cows. But you have lost a lot, and you must be very heartbroken!" Yakesu had a listening expression.Liqiu shook his hands and said, "I know, I know! Just do as you want! You bad boy." "Very well. So, Axy? What do you think of my proposal?" Seeing the sudden reversal of the situation, Yakexu stood still with a gaping expression at first.etc.Could this guy have listened to what I just said and felt that even if he ignored my proposal, it wouldn't have any effect?In other words: 1. Yakesu ignored my proposal.2. I take back the gems from Liqiu and return the cattle.3. Richu and the shepherds must go north with the cattle.4. On the way back, all the cattle died one after another.5. Therefore, those half-orcs only need to follow the shepherd... "Good! Squeak!" ... Valencia.You have worked so hard.It's really admirable that you take such good care of these guys.As expected of a god, no matter how you say it, he is different from humans. However, it took a lot of time to hand over all the cattle to the orcs.First of all, it is a big problem to bring more than sixty orcs to the valley where the cattle hide Followed behind), as soon as he reached the valley, Riqiu began to delay time.Because, Riqiu wanted to say goodbye to the herd of four hundred cows one by one. "Don't say goodbye again, okay?" "Wait, wait a minute. This cow was delivered by me. Because it was difficult to give birth at that time, I put my hand into its mother's body and tied it with a rope before pulling it out. Oh, this guy! I should have known You will be taken away by the orcs, and I will give up on you at that time!" "...Yeah. Is it over?" "Ah, wait! This cow, this bull calf! I only need to think of the time I saved him from the wolf's near-death..." Richu began to hug the bull calf, rubbing its whole body.Because it was night now, the herd of cattle didn't make any sound, they were all very quiet, only Riqiu's muttering to himself could be heard clearly.Those half-orcs were all furious, but because the other shepherds were watching them with murderous eyes, they could only squeak anxiously.But Yakesu simply sat on the rock with his legs hanging and roared.However, most of the time, Yakesu was peeking at the cows that filled the valley, and showed a satisfied expression. Whether eaten by dragons or orcs, the final destination of these cattle is the mouth of an animal anyway.It is a coincidence that these two situations are the same, but there is a difference.Wouldn't it be better to be eaten by dragons, but worse to be eaten by orcs? Finally, when the dawn was about to break, Riqiu backed away.Maybe it's because he can't stand the tired relationship anymore.Liqiu yawned one after another, but at the same time, he took another sad look at the cows all over the mountains and valleys. "Farewell..., Farewell..." I'm getting goosebumps, really!Yakexu looked at me with displeasure, and said to me: "Can I go now, Chi?" "Ah, yes. Thank you for keeping you waiting for a long time. You must abide by the agreement!" "Squeak! Of course! The revenge is over!" "Okay, okay. Ah, I have one more condition." "Squeak, what did you say?" "Hey, since you have food for the winter, let go of those mechanics who were caught in your cave. How?" Yakesu started to stare at me fiercely.hey-hey.How do you want to treat me with that look?Hey, I have witnessed twelve dragons fighting with my own eyes.Yakesu growled and nodded in agreement. "Squeak! Good!" "Very good. That's all. Then Mr. Riqiu?" Liqiu was still looking at the cows with a sad face until then, so I had to call him again. "what?" "Please drive the cattle to where these half-orcs are going. And please monitor these half-orcs and release all the mechanics." "What, what, what! You even want us to serve goblins?" The shepherds all looked at me angrily.Ha ha.This is a trick I learned from someone.Although he didn't teach me directly.However, this is the method of the guy named Taiban Hashik: Even if it is forced, let them act together. I nodded and said, "Otherwise, how would these half-orcs carry so many cattle? They are lucky not to be trampled to death by the herd of cattle. Besides, you can bring these cattle to you to feel at ease. Okay." Now, this is my last condition. And, if you help drive the cattle to the destination and monitor the release of the artisans imprisoned in the orc cave, then I can give you another one and The gemstones I gave you just now are exactly the same. Do you want them?" "What? Another one?" Instead of answering, I took a diamond out of the bag, threw it up, caught it again, and so on.The eyes of the shepherds and half-orcs started to dance up and down together.Hahaha!From the point of opening their mouths at the same time, the two groups of guys are really too similar. Probably when I threw it up for the fourth time, Riqiu intercepted the diamond from midair.I giggled, and Liqiu nodded with a gritted expression on his face, and said, "Okay! Okay! Really, when I go back, I must practice witchcraft and ask Shan Keli to exorcise evil spirits. That's it." The trip must be cursed." "Haha. Thank you for your hard work." I waved to the shepherds, and I waved to Aksy.Although the shepherds wrinkled their faces to accept my farewell, Yakesu didn't even look at me, and was only on high alert to those shepherds.I shrugged and turned to my horse. Ah, this is really nerve-wracking.The height of the horse is really too high, and it is not easy to step on the stirrups.It seems that I should adjust the rein rope.I sat on the horse and looked around the valley again. The shepherds and the half-orcs were looking at each other awkwardly. Behind them, four hundred bulls were roaring.On the other side of the valley, that is, in the east, the morning glow dyed the sky red.The strong backs of the herd then writhed red.They seem to be all awake now. "Okay, then I'm leaving. May you all have a peaceful trip!" Until that time, Rikyu was still competing with Aksu for staring at each other, and then he lowered his shoulders and looked back at me. "You can just curse at me, you boy! Goodbye!" The other shepherds also showed wry smiles and waved to me.I laughed and gave the stirrup a little kick. "Let's go, Thundermaster!" "Hee hee hee hee!" The thunder warrior let out a sharp hiss and started to gallop.The light silver mane is flowing, and in an instant, the valley has disappeared behind.After a while, I started walking up Central Avenue.Yeah, if you want to get used to this speed, I think it will take a long time! "Okay, Thundermaster! It's all day long, and we're going to race against the sun again. Let's go, head west!"
No matter how hard you struggle to survive, it is impossible to leave life without experiencing death.In the same way, even a thunder warrior cannot outrun the sun.Ok.My analogy seems to sound very depressed!I was depressed alone because of this thought, while looking at the night view of Erasmus City. so tired.Traveling should really be accompanied by a partner.Traveling alone seems to tire you out faster.This is because you have to bear everything by yourself.However, if you have companions, you can bear each other's safety and share each other's affairs, so of course you won't find it hard.How on earth did the dragon take on 'himself' 'alone'?There's nothing wrong with saying that we and dragons are on opposite extremes... really.I'm cranky again. Damn you bastard dragons, you damn bastard humans. Hoo hoo hoo. A bitter cold wind blew across the night roads of Erasmus City.Crack, clack, even the hooves of the thunderkeepers can't help but sound heavy.Although it is still early, the winter days are short and the sun has already set.Every thick window and heavy door was shut, so that I, the wanderer, could only wander my eyes in bewilderment.Not only was the surroundings quiet and dark, what was even more disturbing was that no one came out to move around at all.Since there was no one to ask directions, I had to follow my memory, which took a lot of time. So, by the time I reached the door of 'The Winds of Tramonica', it was about the time dinner was over.And I was already shivering with cold.Hope they keep at least some hot stew for the poor bums! When I stopped the thunder warrior, and when I dismounted and stood up, a voice shouted from inside the hotel: "Stinky girl! Where do you want to run to? Do you want to run away? Go to hell, stinky girl! Go to hell!" "Ahhh! Uncle, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong...Ahhh!" After a scream, there was a loud ping-pong sound of something breaking. I stood next to the horses, and just stood there listening to the noise from the hotel. "You bandit girl! I have been raising you and giving you food and clothing, but you not only don't want to repay the favor, but also hinder my business? You are going to die today. Damn it!" "Ahhh!" "Please don't, master. You'll kill the boy!" "Yeah, this kid has already admitted his mistake. Just stop." "Let go! Let go! This kind of stinky girl must let her die! Hey, this crazy girl! If you do this, do you think that pretentious man will come back? Why don't you accept that guest, why !" "Ahh! Uhhhhh!" ... This made my melancholy mood disappear all at once.Thank you so much!Instead, however, another emotion was roiling, and that was a big problem.I mounted the Thundermaster again.The thunder guard seemed to be a little surprised, and let out a snort. After sitting on the horse, I took a few deep breaths, and then drew out the giant sword.Clang.There was a sound from the sword that sounded great.I held my greatsword forward, pointing at the entrance of the Tramonica Winds. Hoo, hoo.Hello, boss.You are about to meet the guests who walk in the door in the most gorgeous way after opening today.And just might be the last guest you meet.I can't guarantee that this hotel building will still exist by tomorrow morning. I kicked Thundermaster in the stomach. "Ah ah ah ah!" "Hee hee hee hee!" In the brief moment I continued to ride into the hall after destroying the door of the Tramonica, a thought flashed through my mind very quickly.Maybe it would be better to live alone like a dragon. "Let me see. Let me see..." "Ahhhhhh..." "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Does it hurt? Just bear with it. After rubbing this, it will heal quickly." I dab the healing potion on Merian's forehead.Although this is the treatment just after the injury, if you are not careful, there may still be scars.This is really disturbing.Whenever Merian frowned and tried to prevent me from touching the wound, I would shake my shoulders. It was not easy to find a working chair in this completely destroyed hall.So, I just brought a wine barrel, let Merian sit down, and treated her wound.God, there is such a bastard who uses a poker to whip a girl's forehead.And he beat his niece! The guy who 'had a way of whipping his niece with a poker' yelled, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Gone!" "Really? If the carrot is gone, it should bite something else." "Master, sir! Ouch, please, please! Shh, shhh!" "Hey. That's a horse. . . It was a bull, but at least it wasn't a chicken. Why are you booing?" The boss struggled with a blue face.Now, this inhuman guy is tied up all over, hanging from a torch holder on the wall, and on his belt are several carrots that I brought from the kitchen.And the thunder guard stood in front of him, biting off the carrot with an elegant posture. The louder he chewed, the faster the boss's face turned red.While taking out the bandage, I comforted the boss in a very serious tone: "Your one was bitten by a horse. This kind of experience is not common, and it will definitely stay in my mind for a long time. Don't struggle. Move, and experience this brand-new experience obediently? Don’t you have any curiosity about experiencing a brand-new experience?” "Grandpa! Ugh!" hiss!There was a tearing sound.Finally bitten?I turned my head and wanted to shout hooray, but when I looked, I saw the boss's crotch was split in half.After the crotch was torn, all the carrots fell out, so the Thunderkeeper was eating his dinner with his head down. "Hey. Boss. It's all right. Only the pants are torn. Your thing is still there...huh? Huh? Hey, are you passed out?" The boss was spitting out foam from his mouth, and had already passed out.Although Merian looked anxiously at the unconscious man whose crotch was torn and hung on the wall.But she can't seem to watch anxiously for long. "Heck!" "Uh, uh. Don't laugh. I'm going to get a bandage. Okay, then, uh. The bandage is knotted. . . . That's it. Okay, how's it going. Are you all right?" Merian opened her eyes, gently stroked the bandages wrapped around her forehead, and frowned. "Does it hurt? Uh, are you in unbearable pain? Wait. Are there any unbroken wine bottles here?" I turned around to look for wine to replace the painkiller, at this moment, Merian's hand that was touching her forehead dropped and took mine.Wow, it's like the feeling of wax dripping on the back of your hand!How could her hands be so hot? "Merian?" "Xiu Qi... Xiu Qi...?" My body slowly leaned forward as Merian pulled my hand.After a while, I half-shrunk and bent my upper body, and was hugged by Merian sitting on the wine barrel. "Merian?" Melian strokes my back.With a trembling voice, she said, "It's true...you're really back. Thank you." "Thank you. I'm really sorry I didn't come back sooner." "That's pretty quick. Really. You're back really soon." After I patted Merian on the shoulder, I gently pushed her away. "If you keep rubbing your head on my shoulder like that, the wound will be more serious, and maybe when you get married, you may not be able to marry because of this scar!" "...Anyway, I'm just a hotel girl." "That's as of today." "Ok?" "I'll explain it to you tomorrow. Sit here and don't move. I'm starving. I'm starving at noon, too, and I've walked too much. I'll look for an unbroken bowl." "Ah, I'm here to look for it." "Hey, hey! Just trust me. I'm a pretty good cook! I said that even elves have eaten my cooking, do you believe me?" Merian opened her eyes wide, and then burst out laughing immediately. "Ah, you mean the elf back then. Although I've heard all kinds of adventure stories from the drinkers in the store, this is the first time I've heard of cooking something for the elves." "Ah, is it? It's my first experience too." I giggled and began to check the stove mouth.I managed to light the fire.Then I smashed the tables and chairs without guilt to make firewood.Merian just opened her eyes and didn't say anything. After a burst of knocking noise, red sparks began to flicker in the stove.I began to grunt and haw to find food ingredients and start cooking.Merian burst out laughing, and said, "You are really good at juggling knives." "Really? Haha. Even the priests of the sword god Raiti have recognized my knives with knives." "Leiti's priest? Haha." She seemed to think I was joking.But it's absolutely true.The priests of the Sword God Leti have indeed used all their strength to compete with me in swordsmanship...
"Damn it! It's the priests of Leti!" Shan Sen's shout resounded through the whole mountain, forming an echo and sending it back.Wen Chai drew out his long sword, and said in a low voice, "Thank you so much for telling me." Shan Sen showed an embarrassed expression when he heard Wen Chai's sarcasm.I frowned and looked up. The Marquis was looking down at us with a cold expression.And behind the hill where he was standing, the priests of Leti drew their swords one by one and appeared.Then, on the hill, the Marquis and more than thirty priests of Leti stood there and looked down at us. Ghisien roared: "Ahem, ahem! Marquis, you bastard! Are you, are you here to seek death?" The Marquis did not answer Giseon's words.He looked back and said to the priests, "Get rid of them. Leave none!" Leti's priests did not answer.After the Marquis disappeared directly behind the hill, Leti's priests began to slowly walk down in our direction.Karl hurriedly shouted: "What are you planning in your mind? Why do you obey the orders of the Marquis?" Without any answer, they continued to walk over.At this time, Alvnaid said in a trembling voice: "I didn't see him." "what?" "Leiti's mouth... didn't see the white-haired priest. Could it be that he was taken hostage?" "what!" That's right.I didn't see the tough white-haired priest.Then, Leti's priests would have no choice but to attack!Then... Karl shouted loudly: "Hey, everyone! Then, you and we will work together to rescue the hostages. How about it? " The priests stopped in their tracks.However, the blond priest among them stepped forward and said gloomily, "I'm sorry, Ghisien Byzos." Ghisien just looked at him with a fierce expression and didn't answer.The blond priest said indifferently: "We chose the Marquis of Harshtel." "Yes, I know." Great.Giseon said he knew.But I still don't know why they chose Marquis.I look back at Githion.For a split second, I was dumbfounded by the hostility on his face.Ghisien said: "Ahem. Just get rid of us all, yes, then no one can prove Hashtel, ahem, the Marquis' crime..." The blond priest nodded. "We're doing this for the country." "For...the country?" "If you return to the capital, it is inevitable that there will be a confrontation between the royal family and the Marquis. But the Marquis is the elder of the House of Lords, so the royal family may confront the entire House of Lords. In a country at war , it’s best not to have this happen.” I thought Githion was going to yell it out.However, Ghisien coughed violently, and instead, Carl yelled: "And then! Because the crime of rebellion is as long as anyone involved is guilty, the Abbey of Amiens can't be exonerated, right?" "...Frankly speaking, I don't deny that I have this consideration. Please think about it. If the royal family is opposed to the aristocracy and the religious world, what kind of benefits will this have for the current country? Of course it will not be beneficial. On the contrary, it will only It just caused extreme chaos. The royal family is already struggling with the war with Jeppen." "Light, is it possible that the Tower of Light will stay out of it?" Alvnaid shouted this sentence with all his strength, but the blond priest shook his head. "Because of the Tower of Light, we can't let you go back. You are a wizard, you should be a member of the guild, right? If you go back to the Tower of Light and tell the whole story, then the Tower of Light, which has been silent all the time, will definitely Participate in this confrontation. Then things will get out of hand." Alvnaid stared at the priest gaping.The blond priest said with a tired expression: "And the same is true for the dwarves beater Isaihand Eindev. If you let the dwarves in this country rise up, Byzos will be turned upside down." Esaihand smiled cruelly and said, "Really? How do you know that I won't turn a blind eye to the Marquis of Harshtel and disturb Byzos?" "Because you are a dwarf." At this moment, Giseon said, "So..." Ghisien's face was so blue that it seemed that he could no longer find any color.However, I found that after the severe cough just now, he no longer coughed.吉西恩冷静地说：“反正我是废太子，其他人也都只是默默无闻的冒险家，所以没有必要让这些人来动摇国家，是这个意思吧？” “您好像很喜欢下一些悲情的结论。” “你们这些人竟然如此小看王室！” 那名祭司点了点头，阴沉地说：“拜索斯并不是国王的国家。在这片领土之内，有些种族，像精灵或矮人，他们不接受国王统治，这一点就已经包含在这矛盾里了。 真正的国王从第四代耶里涅大王之后，就没有再出现过了。拜索斯应该说是贵族们的国家。 " “你们刚才对我敬拜过……” 吉西恩的这句话虽然低沉，但是那位金发祭司的脸上却转变成被剑刺到的表情。他一面颤抖着太阳穴，一面俯视吉西恩。吉西恩说道：“是因为那个关系吗？所以你们更费劲地想要无视于王族？” “您是正义的……这我承认是。而我们想做的事不合正义，这我也……” 那位金发祭司费力地讲出话来。而他那一直上下抖动的肩膀，紧抓住了我的目光。 “正义是美好的，但它是个无常的名号，只有力量与其同在的时候，才有美好存在啊。吉西恩·拜索斯。” “你的意思是，你们在人类的正义之外可以为所欲为？只因为你们是神的剑？” “是的。正如同刚才您所说的，你们全都是默默无闻的冒险家。 你以为贵族院真的只会相信在宫外流浪之后回宫的恶名鼎鼎王子，以及不知从何处冒出来的一些流浪者的话，而逼迫德高望重的贵族哈修泰尔侯爵家族吗？现在我们就是想要阻止拜索斯形成乱局。 " “可，可是那是事实啊！侯爵的所作所为全都是事实……” 妮莉亚凄切激动地喊着，但是那位金发祭司只是更加皱紧眉头。 “这和事实有无并没有关联。” "what?" “这位仕女，我猜想，可能你的同伴们会觉得你的纯真很有魅力。” 妮莉亚圆睁着她的眼睛。可是她立刻眯起眼睛，瞪着那位金发祭司。 “……你是在暗指我很愚蠢。什么意思呢？” “这和事实有无并没有关联，即使是贵族院，他们也不可能让王室下令，将素有威望的贵族处刑。因为这样等于是贵族院屈从于王室。贵族们会认为，如果王室开了先例，像哈修泰尔这种名门家族都被轻易处置，那么王室随时都可以逼迫贵族。” 妮莉亚闭上嘴巴不说话。他妈的，说什么国王是骑士中的骑士，而贵族们生来就是国王的骑士？说得可真好听！他们其实是互相不露空隙，即使是一小块的权力，也不想被抢夺走，如此互相牵制着！ 还有……还有，你是什么东西啊！你身为一个奉献给神的人，居然这么详细地说明政治上的东西，你这个祭司到底是在干嘛！don't you know你在对妮莉亚说明时的态度，已经说明了不少事！ 那位金发祭司冷漠地说：“我们会弄得像是你们全都是在阻止克拉德美索时死掉的。把你们当成国家的恩人，至少，这样可以光耀你们的名誉。” 那位金发祭司把袍子衣角翻到背后。随即，闪闪发光的长剑就握在他手上，指着我们。 “即使我建议你们自杀，你们应该也是不会接受吧？” 我、杉森和温柴同时伸出剑来，往前站出去。卡尔往后退，举起弓，而亚夫奈德则是立刻开始念咒语。妮莉亚举起了三又戟。那位金发祭司叹了一口气，说道：“一鼓作气杀了他们，尽量别让他们痛苦！” 雷提的祭司们纷纷往前滑下山坡。 “这些混蛋！” 我大喊着，在往前冲出去的那一瞬间，才发觉到我是用很妙的姿势，停滞在半空中。然后在我还没来得及好好品尝飞行的感觉时，地板就已经用很快的速度接近我了。boom!哎唷，我的头啊！ 我一面揉着头，一面站起来，就发现有一道觉得十分有趣的目光射向我。 “你的起床动作怎么这么妙？” 原来是梅莉安，站在从窗外歪斜地射下的早晨阳光中，面带着微笑。她把双手放在膝盖上，坐在地板上看着我。原来是一场梦！真是的，好可怕的梦。我整个头疼痛不已。呼呜呜。 我用一只手抚摸头上的肿包，另一只手拄着冰冷的房间地板，说道：“你在这里做什么啊？” “我在看人睡觉。” “哈哈。看来你好像事先就知道我会这样轰轰烈烈地起床。” 梅莉安嘻嘻笑了出来，说道：“刚才我看你一直边睡边哼哼呻吟。你是不是做了噩梦？” 如果说是噩梦，还真是噩梦。我无力地笑着抬头看梅莉安。因为从旁边斜射下来的阳光的关系，她的右侧脸庞呈现一道明显的鼻子阴影。让人感觉梅莉安的脸孔很陌生。 “记忆乃是夜之帝王，以梦现身时，能支配万物，我刚才就是在亲身实验这个理论。” “……看来，你做噩梦了！” “你把重点归纳得很好哦。” 梅莉安露出微笑，站了起来。她打开房门，一面走出去，一面说道：“你既然已经起床了，就先梳洗再下来吧。还有，下来的时候，要记得穿得整齐一点。” “……呃呃。你是因为把我全看光了，才这样说的吗？你干嘛叫我穿整齐一点啊？” 梅莉安从门外格格笑着说：“反正我以前都看过了。赶快下来吧。警备队员们正在等着呢。” “警备队员？” 我穿好衣服，一走下楼梯，就听到人们闹哄哄的声音。我站在楼梯顶端，俯视大厅。 大厅仍然还留有昨晚骚动的痕迹。Wow.虽然那是我做的行为，但我真的破坏得很彻底。我一面在心里觉得自己很厉害，一面环视四周围，便在那片废墟之中，看到一些像是伊拉姆斯市警备队员的人站在那里。他们环视被弄得乱七八糟的大厅，个个都露出难以置信的表情。而昨晚被吊在墙上的老板，则是坐在地上，正在哼哼呻吟着接受警备队员的治疗。几名警备队员看着站在大厅一角的御雷者，赞叹着：“哇啊！这匹马真是不错！” 而其他警备队员之中的一位，则是拿着压扁的青铜烛台，用畏惧的语气说： “这到底是怎么弄的？是用什么把它打成这样的？” 不过，这些人也未免出动得太快了吧。昨晚的骚动竟然到了今天早上才出动？此时，坐在地上的老板喊着：“在，在那里！他从那里下来了！” 那时候警备队员们才发现到一直站在昏暗的楼梯顶端的我。警备队员们在刹那间都惊慌地握住战戟。我一面听着武器举起的当唧响声，一面下到楼梯口，随即其中一个像是带头的男子用啼笑皆非的语气说道：“什么啊？他只不过是个年轻小伙子嘛！” hum.他们好像因为楼梯顶端太过昏暗，所以错看了我的模样。 其他队员们也一副啼笑皆非的表情，一下子看看我，一下子又看看老板。老板呻吟着点了点头，随即，那名带头的男子就放下了原本紧握住的战戟，开始摸着他的下巴。他说道：“这可真是怪了。闹出这种骚动的家伙居然连逃都不逃，而且还睡了一觉，这已经够不可思议了，而且犯人竟然是这种小鬼？到底这是怎么一回事啊？” 我留意注视着那名男子在摸下巴的动作，说道：“啊，您好像是因为一大早就出动，所以没时间刮胡子。我叫修奇·尼德法。早安！” “你在高兴什么啊？你这家伙，你一个人吗？” 真是的，这个人见面第一句话就这么凶！I nodded.随即，那名带头的人就摇了摇头，说道：“真是令人难以置信。好。先将你羁押在警备部。快放下武器。” 要我放下武器？那我当然是很乐意。我用慎重的表情，长长地伸出舌头，试验它上下运动的性能。也就是说，我对他吐了吐舌头。 那名带头的人突然受到嘲弄之后，稍微张着嘴巴，用惊讶的眼神看我。 “舌头是我最强的武器。俗语说，三寸不烂之舌胜过一把剑。” “这可恶家伙！” 这名男子的拳头立刻往前飞来。Snapped!hum.比起杉森的拳头力道，这简直就是在搔痒嘛。在他收回拳头的那一瞬间，我冷冷地笑着说道：“是你先打的吧？” "What's the meaning?" “我说，是你这边先打的。所以这可是正当防卫行为。” 我根本不让那名吃惊的男子有空档说话，立刻揪住他的领口，往上提起。我听到周围的尖叫声，以及比周围尖叫声还要尖锐的那名男子的尖叫声，然后我开始抓着他转圆圈。一直转到发出风声之后，我就把他摔到地上，随即，那名男子连站都没办法站稳，就重重地跌坐在地上。boom!他坐在地上之后，开始往左右摇晃他的头。 “这，这个可恶家伙！” 警备队员们全都一齐喊出怪声，在他们举起战戟的那一瞬间，我双手交叉在胸前，喊着：“攻击国王的骑士乃是叛乱罪！” "what?" 警备队员们手上所持的战戟突然停顿下来，他们的脸色按照个人体质的不同，开始呈现出各式各样的颜色。我格格笑着从袋子里翻找出勋章，在脸孔面前摇晃了几下。看着勋章的那些警备队员们的脸色，个个都发黑了。 我面向那些脸色发黑的脸孔，展开了一场训话。 “各位，你们只要看到那匹雄健的马，就应该知道了，不是吗？而且你们看到我制造出这种骚动却还很泰然，你们早就该看出来了才对啊。因为，我这小鬼一定是有什么可靠的权力，才敢趾高气昂的，不是吗？唉，该死的权力！这种东西就像抹布一样，越是用它，就会越脏，但是有了它，却一定会去用它。咳，呸！” 警备队员们对于我问的问题，吃力地问道：“国，国王的骑士？请问你是……贵族吗？” “啊啊，我真的用不惯这个名字，不过，我还是再自我介绍一次好了。我是尼德法伯爵家的修奇·尼德法。” dad!您可以高兴了吧。这是尼德法伯爵家第一次的宣言。而且是尼德法伯爵家代替国王行使的第一次为民服务。因为，这是在救国王的国民梅莉安，不是吗？嗯哈哈哈！ “我身为国王的骑士，代替国王，来惩治折磨自己侄女的恶劣旅馆老板。这家伙残酷地使唤侄女，这件事身为同乡人的你们，应该是更清楚才对吧？好了，现在我问各位，你们要攻击我这个国王的骑士，来背叛王室吗？” 刚才一屁股坐在地上的警备队员带头人，像是如坐针毡般赶紧站起来。他用很有礼貌的动作敬礼，他这副模样还是可以看出他不久前才失去平衡跌坐在地上。 “我千不该万不该！我会以虐待青少年的罪名，立刻逮捕'特拉摩尼卡之风'旅馆的老板！” 嗯，这个时候，我当然是不能用修奇式的回答方式来答话！我以尼德法伯爵家的第一代伯爵身份，严谨地说道：“您这是优秀的警备队员所具备的行事态度。伊拉姆斯市的未来是光明的。我等一下一定会去找市长大人禀报此事。” 我敢说，杰米妮要是看到现在的我，一定会笑到昏厥过去。不过，那名带头的警备队员又再一次敬了一个快把额头弄伤的举手礼。 “必胜！啊，不是，谢谢您！” 过了一会儿，旅馆老板就被捆绑起来，正要被警备队员带走，我坐到倒放的酒桶上，一面悬腿摇晃着，一面格格笑着观赏这一幕。警备队员们和老板都走了之后，我回头一看，就看到梅莉安表情呆滞地站在大厅角落看着我。 “梅莉安？” 她像是刚睡醒似的，肩膀惊颤了一下，随即立刻低下头来。 “伯，伯爵大人……” Uh uh.看来还是'蜡烛骑士'或者'半兽人的悲剧'这些称号比较适合我，'修奇伯爵大人'好像不怎么适合我。我把腿举到酒桶上面，咻地转了半圈。Uh!my ass! “喂，你该不会以为你那样叫我，我会很高兴吧？” 梅莉安的表情变得很高兴。她用右手的食指和姆指拉了拉下嘴唇，说道：“可是，我知道你是伯爵，就无法继续叫你修奇了啊。” “嗯，是吗？你现在叫过一次就行了。以后就叫我修奇吧。” “好。修奇，可是，这是怎么一回事啊？” “你是说我怎么当上伯爵的？说来话长。简单地说，我为国家立了功，所以获封爵位。” “真令人惊讶……，真的。跟那些来往这里的别脚冒险家相比，你还真是了不起呢。你是真正的冒险家。” 我眯了一边眼睛之后，对梅莉安做了一个手势。 “哈哈。好，那么你坐在那里一下。” "Ok?" “我要你坐那里，嗯。那把椅子应该没坏吧。因为我有话要说，你坐着吧。我不是要谈早餐吃什么好的这类复杂微妙的事，所以你大可放心。” 梅莉安嘻嘻笑着拉了椅子坐到我对面。我在讲话之前，干咳了几声。早上总是令人觉得口渴。 “我可以给你机会。说起来，我真的长大很多。居然已经可以给别人一个转换人生的机会。哼嗯。我要你自己来判断，看你是否要抓住这个机会。” “机会？什么意思呢？” “嗯。首先，如果你不想离开这个都市，我可以让这间店变成是你的。啊，绝对不是不合法的事。我的意思是，可以把这间店买下来给你。而如果你对经营旅馆没有自信，说得也是，你年纪还小，对你来说这一定是不容易。可是，你应该是找不到其他的保护人吧？” "Ok……" “你有男友吗？” 梅莉安紧盯着我，然后摇了摇头。 “好。我认识一个很优秀的人。我在想，要不要把你交付给他。 嗯，他虽然不是什么有钱人，可是个性不错。他可能没办法让你养尊处优，不过，他应该可以让你过得心情舒坦。 " “你这是在做媒人吗？” “哦，没这回事。我不是说过了，我是在帮你找保护人。我是打算把你托付给他，直到你长大到足以去寻找自己的路为止。哈哈，真是的。这种话是上了年纪的人才会说的话，可是，由一个和你年纪差不多的男孩子口中讲出来，听来实在是很怪异，是吧？” 梅莉安又开始拉她的下嘴唇了。所以，她的答话听来有些不清楚。 “我不知道。这实在是太突然了。” “这我能理解。你慢慢考虑吧。我想要现在去找市长，表明我的身份，讨论如何处置老板。在这段时间里，你好好考虑吧。” “我知道了。对了，你应该先吃点早餐吧？” “没关系。我进到市长官邸，再去吃他一顿吧。我应该给伊拉姆斯市长大人一个招待尼德法伯爵的机会。” “啊，啊。是啊。因为你是伯爵大人……” “很可笑吧？哈哈。可是，这是不得已的。因为，在礼貌上，我进到一个都市或领地，就得去向当地市长或领主打声招呼。啊，对了，你要不要一起去？” “啊，不。我没关系。嗯，你现在是以伯爵身份去见市长大人，是吧？” “嗯……当然是啊。” “我知道了。我怎么敢跟着去。呵呵。你不要露出那种抱歉的表情。我能理解。而且这也没什么啊。” 我没有回答，而是跳下酒桶，把手指放到嘴边吹口哨。Hush!站在大厅角落的御雷者可真乖，它立刻走了过来。 我骑上马，一面走出大门，一面往后看了一眼。梅莉安呆坐在空荡荡的大厅之中，一副惊慌与感叹交杂的复杂表情。她独自坐在形同废墟的大厅之中的模样，简直就像是在显示她现在的处境。真是令人觉得怜惜。可是，在她脸上浮现的希望却让我满怀感动。哈哈，那份希望的原因正是因为我的缘故吧？梅莉安，你不要担心。我会帮助你的。 我昨晚的那个想法要暂时保留了。我们是不可能像龙那样活着的。至少，梅莉安是不可能做得到的。我的意思是，他人的亲切会让人多开心啊。这完全不同于那时候对伊露莉是否帮忙都不在意，还有杰伦特，一帮忙就立刻勃然大怒的基果雷德……因为，梅莉安是人类。 即使身处废墟之中，也怀着希望在笑的人类梅莉安举起手来。 “快去快回吧。” 我也对她摇了摇手之后，就高兴地出发了。 “呀啊！走吧，御雷者！” Uh!我错了。我在兴高采烈之余，就不顾一切地奔驰出去。可是，我不知道市政府在哪里啊！
