Chapter 126 Chapter two
Today's visit did not go well.However, the mayor of Iramus City received an official document a few days ago, asking him to pay attention to the divine weapon used by Jeppen (this name should refer to the destructive combat method that uses the presence of the gods. They call it the weapon of the gods In fact, it should be a human weapon, a human weapon!) After that, he was filled with righteous indignation, and immediately put the family-heired sword on his shoulders and voluntarily enlisted in the army.
As soon as I heard that he was now supposed to be in the Volunteer Army, and marching ambitiously, I asked: "How old is the Mayor?"
The director of general affairs of the city government who is now acting as the mayor replied with a smile: "Sixty-five years old."
"...he is really old and strong."
Judging from the appearance of the mayor's office, we can probably see the mayor's personality.The shields and swords hanging on the wall are shining like they can be taken out to fight on the spot, and they are definitely not the kind of things that are used for decoration.And in the other corner of the mayor's room, a field bed can even be vaguely seen.In the wooden barrel next to the tall bookshelf, there are no documents and files, but it is filled with square cluster arrows.Is this the mayor's office, or the sheds of the mounted police?Our country is indeed a country of chivalry.Ah, I was wrong.It should be said that other than the nobles, other people will follow the chivalry.snort!
I looked at the teacup on the table and said, "Yes, didn't his sons dissuade him?"
"Because my father is not the kind of person who listens to dissuasion."
Dang, dang, a bell was ringing in my head.I quickly lowered my head.
"Ah, really. I'm sorry. So the Lord Mayor is your father."
"No, it's okay. Earl Niederfar. Although this is something I am proud of, it has to worry me."
"I can understand that. Because. My father is also a volunteer."
"Really? Ah, is it... Ah, it's okay."
"what?"
"I was thinking, is it because your father died in battle, that's why you inherited the title of earl at such a young age..."
"Huh? Haha. No. I'm a rising nobleman. I'm the first earl of the Earl Niederfa family."
The acting mayor lowered his head and raised his teacup.I think he may be trying to hide his panic expression.hum.What's all the fuss about?After the acting mayor took a sip of tea, he coughed a few times and said, "Really? Hehe, it's unbelievable. At your age, you probably wouldn't make meritorious service on the battlefield."
"If you want to talk about credit, I have credit... Well, there are things like that. The details are related to state secrets. I'm afraid that it may accidentally cause disaster, so I'm sorry I can't tell you."
Behold, the villagers of Hetante!Wa hahaha!Me, as the heir of He Tante Candlemaker, with a slightly tired and tense expression on my face, I am talking about state secrets... causing disaster... and so on.The acting mayor Eramus, who was listening to me, was full of nervousness. Although he didn't know what was going on, he still nodded.It never occurred to him to put the teacup in his hand on the table, but just held it in mid-air.I really hope that all the villagers in our territory can be called to watch this scene.
I picked up the teacup on the table, and said gracefully again: "My father was taken captive by the dragon. Apart from that, I'm sorry I can't tell you the details."
The acting mayor is now frozen.Now I am Earl Niederfar, looking at the horizon with eyes full of sorrow, sharpening the blade of the sword that wants to avenge the dragon.Dad, please forgive me for making fun of my father's misfortune, I will definitely save you.Is that all right?
My meeting with the acting mayor ended gracefully with such an appropriate level of response.As for how Melian's uncle will deal with it, according to the national law on the protection of minors and the city regulations of Eramus City, the acting mayor will handle it by himself.Then, I solemnly declined the request to stay in the city hall, and went back to find Merian.
Merian even ran outside the gate, waiting for me.
Surrounding her, surrounded by some curious people, they kept asking her about what happened last night.After Merian explained to the people with a flustered expression, she finally found me.Her eyes suddenly opened wide, and she said, "Xiu... Lord Earl!"
...I really don't like the title Earl.I can understand why she called me that because everyone was watching, but what the hell is that?There's a big distance between Merian and me, doesn't it?The citizens surrounding Merian were the first to see the Lightning Guard, and quickly lowered their heads in fright.
I got off my horse without a word.Merian lowered her head and said in a respectful tone, "Have you returned from the city hall?"
I scowled and looked at Merian.Although she lowered her head, it was obvious that the corners of her mouth were raised.ah, is it?That can't beat me.
"In the name of Ubinie and Hoganes, I wish the noble lady Melian a long live. Yes, miss. The evil boss who tortured the noble lady will be punished in the name of justice and the law of the country. I hope the noble lady Melian An honor forever."
Merian looked up at me with panicked eyes, I tried not to be seen by those around me, and quickly blinked away.In fact, neither Merian nor I seem to be very suitable for such a role.Merian, standing hesitantly in her apron, is not fit for a 'noble lady', and likewise, I, besides riding a nice horse, in rumpled clothes and hair like a bird's nest, It is also not suitable for the title of 'Earl Niederfa'.The reason why these people around me feel awe should be only because of my attitude and the attitude of the thunder guards.Ah, maybe the latter accounts for a larger proportion.
Merian lowered her head again and said, "Ah, please go inside, Lord Earl."
"thanks."
After I followed Melian into the hall, I immediately closed the door to block the curious gazes of the people outside.Then, immediately, I scrunched my face and looked at Merian.And Merian shrugged while looking at me with mischievous eyes.
"What else should we do? It is a crime of treason to provoke the king's knights, and in the same way, not showing proper courtesy to the king's knights is an insult to the royal family, isn't it?"
"……Have you eaten breakfast?"
"Well, I ate."
"Have you had your lunch?"
"What? It's not lunchtime yet, is it?"
"Aha, so you haven't eaten yet. That's why you are so good at talking!"
"Shu Qi!"
I burst out laughing.Because calling me that way is indeed more able to confirm my existence.Wow haha.
I smiled and looked around, and there was a bundle on the table, something I hadn't seen when I went out in the morning.Merian followed my gaze and smiled after seeing the burden.I said, "What is that?"
"It's my luggage. Simple, isn't it?"
"...I see. Is there anyone in particular you want to meet?"
"No, there isn't. But I have a question."
"You are amazing. Not only do you have questions to ask, but people listen to you. You are even better than the priests. Although the priests throw a lot of questions, they rarely get answers. Haha. Congratulations What's wrong with you when you're in such a great situation?"
"Why are you so nice to me?"
"Ok?"
Melian lowered her eyes, touched her baggage and said, "When I was packing my luggage, I suddenly had a feeling. I don't seem to have any reason to accept your kindness. Why do you want to fight for me and protect my future? "
It turned out to be this little problem.I pulled a chair and sat down, and said, "Well. A girl saw a child crawling slowly on the edge of a cliff, so she left the egg basket in her hand and ran over. What is her reason? Woolen cloth?"
"Ok?"
"Tell me. Even if all the eggs in the egg basket will be broken, what is the reason for running to the children?"
Merian tilted her head!Said, "Uh, um, because children are more precious than eggs?"
"Although I didn't expect that kind of answer, no, this answer is also good. Yes, yes. Because I also think that you, Merian, are more important than my hard work. It is not particularly tiring for me to help you. Hey, But my own answer sounds a little impersonal even to me!"
Merian pouted and said, "Really. Then you mean, if it's a very tiring job, you won't help me, right?"
"You can think of it that way, too. Well, in case it's something that involves risking your life, or risking the possibility of ruining all my futures. Well, in that case, I can imagine that I must I will think like this. In other words, I will think: 'My friendship with Merian is nothing, I am more important'. And I will be satisfied with that decision."
"Of course you...will do that?"
"Yes. I don't want to adorn my hard work. I do it because I can do it. There are many differences between me and the stupid crazy prince... Forget it, let's not talk about it. "
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Nope. Not much fun. If that's enough explaining, shall we go out?"
Merian picked up the bundle without hesitation.Huh, it's really straightforward for her to start like this.
She didn't even look back at the store once, she just wanted to walk out the door.I quickly called her to stop.
"Uh, hello, Merian. Isn't there someone like the head clerk? Can't we just leave this shop and leave? Not even the boss..."
Merian stopped in front of the gate and turned to look at me.She said listlessly, "Well? I don't have any sense of responsibility for this store. You seem to have a sense of responsibility for it, don't you?"
"I, of course I have nothing to do with this store, but would you...he is your uncle, isn't he?"
"No matter what happens to this shop, it's not my shop. Well, the other servants will know what to do. Now they've all run away because they're afraid of you, but they'll be back soon .As long as my uncle is released, they will come back."
"Okay, I see. Let's get out, then."
Yes, as long as the boss regains his authority, the servant should come back again.
"You mean, they'll come back again?" "Yes. It should be like this." Karl shook his tired head to the left and right, and did not say a word for a while.Then, looking at the sunlight shining into the window, he said slowly: "In this way, the foundation of the nobility will be completely shaken. What is the foundation of the nobility? In fact, it is the kind of baseless behavior that is regulated by arrogance and independence." A sense of superiority. If you are a really superior person, you can be respected by others without doing anything at all. But there is no connotation, only a superior consciousness will become violent.Although that kind of violence seems strong and powerful at first glance, it will be defeated when it encounters more violent forces.What I'm about to do now seems even more brutal than what Hendrick did back then.Karl Hutant's name would become a name of terror, so terrible that it would become a halo of light too luminous to meet. " Is this really Carl?I looked at Carl in amazement.But how I see it, he still looks like that laughing scholar who flips through the books in his nest.However, Karl said with terrifying eyes: "I will let them rely on the king to exist. Nobles? Even nobles, in front of the king, will become no different from other people. Their arrogance and their authority will be crushed." I really have nothing to say.So, while looking at the window, I murmured: "... Ghisien seems to owe you a huge debt of favor." Carl nodded. "He's so ruthless. This man...he's a man so great as to be ruthless. Greatness is not achieved by great valor and profound knowledge alone.Greatness has to be just greatness.Those who can do this are great people.I was able to understand this when I saw Githion.What people say without knowing the inside story is actually the truth. In fact, he should have been king..." "So, what will they do with the Marquis?" Karl glanced at me first, then nodded and said, "Of course the Marquis should be portrayed as a hero." "This is really outrageous!" Shan Sen kicked down the chair and stood up.Karl and I looked at Shan Sen with round eyes, while Wen Chai frowned.Shan Sen said: "Well, is this a new type of punishment? May I ask if there is a new type of punishment called 'Motherland Hero'?" That's an interesting speculation.Shan Sen was talking excitedly.Although Nelia also looked like she wanted to say such a thing, but as soon as Shansen finished speaking, she sat in her seat and could only nod.Hahaha.What a nice bunch of people they are.I rubbed my forehead and laughed, and Carl smiled too. "No, my brother Fisher. I just said it directly in that sense." Shan Sen took a deep breath, showing that he could raise his voice and shout a little more, then he stared blankly at my expression.I shook my head with a smiling expression.Immediately, Shan Sen looked at Wen Chai, and Wen Chai said coldly: "Sit down and wait for that person who is smarter than you to speak. Just wait quietly, and you will know the whole story." Shan Sen pulled up the chair with an embarrassed expression, and sat upright looking at Carl (but why was Nelia relieved?). "Please explain to us." "Okay, I know. Do you still remember what the blond priest said? He said: The nobles will think that if the royal family sets a precedent and a famous family like Harshtel is easily dealt with, then the royal family will always Can persecute the nobles." "Huh? Ah, yes. He said so." "This just shows how fragile the kingship of our country is. In fact, there are too many powers in a country. In addition to the sacred and inviolable powers, the religious world also has a lot of power. Although the magic world is a single Structure, but too strong and powerful. However, fortunately, Hendrick and Soroch left good traditions, so until now wizards only like to be a noble scholar in an ivory tower.The dragon is... the dragon maintains a certain friendly relationship with humans because of the dragon soul envoy, otherwise, the power of the dragon is certainly enough to endanger the royal family. Also, the elves and dwarves are not bound by the royal authority, and they can move freely.Thinking about it this way, our country is really going all the way, and it is so precarious that it makes people sweat, isn't it? " Shan Sen took a breath with a yellow face.Carl said with a chuckle: "There was a time..., and I once had great ambitions like Qingyun. But this country really has no future." "Carl?" After Carl coughed dryly, he changed the subject. "In any case, a country that cannot achieve centralized power is very troublesome. This problem can be easily understood if you think of it as a family. If the head of a family cannot stand as the head of the family, it will How? His family will definitely laugh at him. So, now in our country, the nobles are laughing at the royal family." "so what?" "Three hundred years after King Lutanio and Hendrick, the Byzos royal family faced the biggest challenge of the Jeppen War. From our point of view, it seems that history is accidental, and we even feel that how things happened It has become like this, but behind it, there is a closely related causal relationship. The Jeppen War, the rebellion conspiracy of the Marquis of Harshtel or Nex Shulizhe, the awakening of Klad Meso, the blood of the Dragon Soul Envoy severing..., all these events can be summed up in one sentence: Byzos has begun to shake. The foundation accumulated by the king and Hendrick has now begun to weaken. Now we These incompetent descendants have exhausted the legacy of the heroic age." grunt.Why do I feel that swallowing saliva is also a kind of hard work. "Under such circumstances, if the Marquis of Harshtel is accused of rebellion, the nobles will definitely be greatly shaken when judging the authenticity. This is unavoidable. Therefore, we must vote for it first. Good. Therefore, the Marquis of Harshtel must die for the royal family. This is very important. The Marquis of Harshtel must die for the country and the king. Then for other nobles, it is also It's okay to ask for something like: 'Look, even the Marquess of Harshtel does that. You owe your loyalty to the King, too'. Do you understand?" "Ouch, my God... my head hurts." "Of course, we can't ask for this directly, but we can create that tendency. And that's enough. Now, we must inject new power into Baizos. I mean absolutely inhuman power.The power of man, the fantasies of heroes, were only summer daydreams, and now the bitter winter is coming.The age of heroes is no more.In the past, the legacy of the heroic age unfolded the horizon that gave birth to our consciousness, and now it is time for us to emerge from this legacy and make a new leap.This is the autumn of Byzos's magic. " This is one of Karl's shortcomings.Because he thinks too highly of everyone who listens to him.I couldn't understand what he was talking about.Shan Sen scratched his head violently, and finally thought of something to say. "Then... I see. So, the Marquis of Harshtel must not be allowed to return to the Byzos Imperial City, right?" "That's right. No matter what happens, he can't be allowed to appear in this world. That's why I'm looking for you today. Now we have to find him immediately."
The sunshine in winter is especially comforting. "It's hot...I should be able to take this off." Merian kept moving to get off the coat she was wearing.I felt Merian's gaze prick the back of my neck.After a dry cough, I said, "Okay. Heh, huh. It's great that the weather is so nice in winter. It's good for traveling, right?" "You still scare me, saying that the weather will be very, very cold..." The bragging of adventurers is innocent.Please stop staring at me like that.I originally mobilized all kinds of bragging to scare Merian.I said that we would starve for days in the freezing cold, and sleep with our hungry stomachs, but we also had to be wary of the bloody teeth of the monsters chasing after us, and could not sleep peacefully The night of terror... But by your side, one of the most powerful adventurers in history is walking with you, so you can trust him and follow him. (Should I tell her that, in fact, I still expect her to look at me with the emotion of 'I admire Mr. Xiu Qi, I will always believe in you'!) But it has been two days since I left Eramus City, the weather during this period has been incomparably sunny, the three meals are full, and let alone a monster, there is not even a little rabbit. And the most powerful adventurer ever dozed off, almost fell off the horse, and then was tortured by the noble lady sitting behind him for ten minutes, listening to her muttering endlessly.How can I do this?I really want to sleep!At this time, I really hope that bandits will show up in a swarm and kindly ask me to 'hand over everything and get out of here with my life', that would be great. "Hand over everything!" "Long live!" My yell startled the Bandit, Merian, and myself.Men swarming from both sides of the road looked up at me with 'panic' written on their faces.The moment I felt an unbearable compulsion to scream, I said, "There are only seven of you!" My second yell didn't have any appeal. After listening to it, the bandit and Merian seemed to be immersed in deeper doubts.I may have said something that misled my essence.I dismounted.no.I should hurry up and improve my personality. I looked at Merian with tragic eyes. "Merian, you stay on the horse. I will protect you. In case I die, the Thundermaster will take you safely..." "Xiu Qi! You idiot, why did you dismount! You should run away together!" Uh.Merian, please!If I work so hard, you should say something that echoes me. "Boys always say that at times like this!" "That's why boys will hear the phrase 'stupid' from girls! And don't you mean your words and deeds are inconsistent!" "I don't do what I say?" "Yes! You said that you only do what you can do!" "... Sometimes things happen that go against my beliefs. And this time, it doesn't go against my beliefs." "what does it mean?" "I dismounted because I could win. Do you not believe me so much? I even demonstrated sword skills with the priests of Leti. I am not afraid of these seven vagrants!" Those men kept their eyes wide open, watching Melian and me fighting regardless of the situation, and when they heard the word 'homeless', they immediately showed a look of shock.I turned my head and shouted: "Guys! You came here from the southern woodlands to take refuge here and feel that life is difficult, so you want to start a bandit trade, right? And this is your first time, right?" "Uh, uh?" "You're asking me how I know? You can tell by looking at the things in your hands. Actually, how did I know in the first place? You can tell by looking at how nervous you are." The men with hoes, shovels, and sickles now began to make an undisguised backward movement.it is good.Wait, stepping back is an undisguised gesture, isn't it?Hmm!It's not very important. "Okay, are you going to fight?" The men looked at each other.Seeing their appearance, I felt very unbearable, so I put down my sword.Why on earth is this happening?It is spectacular to have seven big men lined up in a row.Their sunken cheeks were stained with mud, and they had clumps of untrimmed beards on their cheeks and chins.Clothes... probably because I didn't have time to take care of them, so I just let them wear on my body. Rather than calling them clothes, I might as well call them rags.And in those hungry sunken eyes, one could feel murderous intent.These people have actually reached the end of the road. "Damn it, come on!" Among those men, there was still a strong-looking man who took a step forward and began to rush over.Immediately, other people followed suit and began rushing forward desperately. "Ahhhh!" God.When Leti's priests attacked, they didn't make any sound at all. The sound made by Leti's priests was just 'drink! ' It's just a gasp.In fact, they didn't even scream. "This guy, if you fight like this, I will die!" Shan Sen yelled while fending off the long sword that was cutting towards his neck.The opponent didn't take back his sword, but instead jumped back, creating a distance as a defense, while his hand was already preparing for the next attack.Really great!But the priest did not observe Wen Chai. Wen Chai passed by him, then swung his knife, and when he walked away again, the priest immediately collapsed to the ground. Where Wen Chai rushed, there was a very tall priest waiting.The giant priest held two long swords tightly and was about to attack Wen Chai.But Wen Chai fended off the two swords that Fei slashed at once, and said with a chuckle: "Double swords? This is a technique that has been lost for a long time even in the legends of our country. I'll let you pay the price of obsessing over old stuff. " Wen Chai's body guides the sword.After his body brushed past the opponent's body, the sword seemed to be moving behind him.That's all my eyes can see.Then the opponent lowered his sword and fell forward.Wen Chai didn't look back at all, just said: "Don't stand there in a daze! You should know that there will be a sword that will move your head!" Whoops, I swung my greatsword and jumped back a step.When, oh my god!A tingling tremor ran through his wrists, shaking his shoulders too.This sword seems to be quite accurate! After I calmed my breath, I looked forward and saw the blond priest holding a sword, standing there looking at me.I suddenly yelled: "Chop harder." The blond priest nodded.You bastard, you were lied to by me!Dangdang!I barely parried the blond priest's sword.Then, at the moment of the sword's impact, I quietly let go of my strength.The opponent immediately moved forward and began to slide out.I giggled and slid forward immediately. "Ah ah ah ah!" The blond priest's face was wrinkled.He started backing away immediately, but I pushed him like hell.This guy, if you draw your sword, I will die, why should I let you go? In an instant, the blond priest and I pushed and ran for about ten steps.There is such a person!I have already pushed ten steps, and I haven't fallen yet! "I can't even fall like this!" I kicked my foot towards the shin of the opponent's calf.However, the blond-haired priest evaded, and I made an empty move and let the blond-haired priest run away.He only took two steps.However, for the blond priest, two steps are enough.He stabbed hard again.Oops! "My weapon is longer!" At the moment when the trident flashed, the sword that the blond priest was about to stab at was swung to the side.The blade of the trident collided with the long sword, and I fell backwards and rolled straight back. "Nelia! I love you!" "I've always had a headache about it! Because I'm so cute! Hahahaha!" After Nelia completely stunned me, she began to stab out the trident.Gritting his teeth, the blond priest swung down to block the trident that was stabbing at him.The moment the trident fell, another priest rushed over and stepped on the trident.After Nelia missed the trident, she took several steps back. hateful!There are too many people on the other side!Shan Sen grabbed three people and was fighting alone; Wen Chai kept moving to prevent being surrounded, and thus exhausted his own strength.So now he can't even attack the opponent.As for Alfred, who had used up his memory magic, he planned to fight with his body, picked up the javelin that had fallen on the ground, and started waving it.His first attack was so horrific that even the dwarven beater was startled. "Boy, play better! Whose eyeball are you trying to gouge out?" "Oh, oh! I'm sorry. Ah, I didn't expect this thing to be so heavy...Esaihand!" "Ok?" Although Esaihand turned his head quickly, it was too late.Leti's sword brushed against his shoulder, and Ai Saihande turned halfway, then lost his balance and fell down while turning around.Although Alvnaid swung his javelin desperately, the opponent gently cut his javelin in two and kicked Alvnaid.Alfred fell beside Isaihand and said, "Uh! Mr. Isaihand, I'm sorry..." As if to say something, Esaihand was about to raise his head, but Priest Leti stepped on his chest with his foot.hateful!Nelia, who had no weapon, yelled out a strange sound and ran towards Ethhande. Nelia turned her arms while running, and several daggers flew across the air.The priest who had stepped on Esaihand and raised his long sword hurriedly stepped back.However, he couldn't dodge the arrow shot by Karl, and he was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell backwards.Very good, leave it to Carl and Nelia first!I turned my head again and rushed towards the blond priest. "When you die, remember to shout Xiuqi Nidfa, die! This person killed you!" The blond priest smiled fiercely and slashed over.Although the blond priest's long sword bounced off the flying sword, but after the sword bounced up like a wicker, it flew back again. "Uh uh uh!" I felt a tingling pain in my thigh, and in an instant, my leg became completely weak.As if I had no knees in the first place, my whole leg was bent down.I was kneeling, but I still swung the huge sword, but the blond priest just moved his wrist slightly, and moved my sword aside. I gritted my teeth and looked up at the blond priest holding the sword.The moment the sword was raised above my head, I closed my eyes tightly.Now I'm screwed! But the sword did not fall.Instead, there was a strange sound of footsteps.After the strange footsteps passed by me, they stopped in front of me.I open my eyes. "Gicien?" It turned out that Ghisien stood in front of me after struggling to move his legs.The moment I looked up at Githion's back, my body froze and I couldn't say a word.Nelia shouted in the distance: "You are crazy! Please get out of the way!" Gishon raised the Duan Ya sword as if he didn't hear it.Buzz buzz!The blond priest frowned and said, "Go to hell." Still standing in front of me, Ghisien said slowly, "Die well...there's no such thing. Stupid. There's only such a thing as 'live well'." "yes?" "Because at this very moment... I'm still alive." I don't know if Ghisien is laughing, but his shoulders kept shaking.The blond priest nodded and said: . "You're right. You live this moment like eternity. Hope this moment is happy for you." Then, the blond priest began to walk forward slowly.The other priests just watched with complicated expressions.Although Ghisien's body didn't move, his shoulders began to tense up.no.Should I rush forward?Should I push Githion away?But I can't take any action at all, I can only look at the back of my king. Kaaaaaah! A flickering thing quickly shot up into the sky.I followed the ray of light blankly and raised my gaze.Immediately, I saw a black dot drawing a circle in midair.And the flickering object that shot towards the circle was... Duan Ya Sword? "squeak!" The chirping of vultures is very sad.While my ears were buzzing, I heard the pounding of my heart almost shattering, and I lowered my gaze. The blond priest's sword had pierced Ghisien's stomach. "Cough, cough, cough." Ghisien just coughed and didn't move.I couldn't feel the fight around me at all, I just looked at him.The blond priest said in a low voice: "Please forgive me. You who should have been king." After the blond priest's sword was drawn, Ghisien knelt down on his knees.Snapped.The Duanya sword bounced into the air and stuck on the ground beside Giseon.Buzz buzz!The Duan Ya sword buzzed as if it was about to be pulled out from the ground. Ghisien crouched in front of me, trembling.Is he about to fall forward like this?However, Ghisien did not fall.He leaned on his knee with his left hand, and stretched out his trembling right hand to Duan Yajian.The blond priest looked at him with a cold expression. "I'm alive." Ghisien said with a voice as thin as breathing, and held the Duan Ya sword. He used the Duan Ya sword as a cane and wanted to stand up.The blond priest shook his head and slowly raised his long sword. "You bastard, stop!" I yelled to get up, but my legs wouldn't work.As a result, I hit my cheek hard and rolled to the ground.Tears welled up in his eyes because of the pain in his cheeks.I rubbed my eyes in panic and looked at Githion. Ghisien was looking up at the blond priest with melancholy eyes.The sword of the blond priest is slowly but continuously rising. Finally, the sword was raised to his head.However, Ghisien did not close his eyes, he still tried to stand up.The blond priest shook his head lightly and said, "Please rest in peace." At this moment, a terrible scream burst out from behind Leti's priests. Upon hearing the scream, the blond priest looked back in panic.This burst of screams actually made the Leti priests, who are known as masters of swords, turn their heads and pay attention.And those priests who turned their heads after hearing the scream are now unable to move their eyes because of the scene in front of them. If it's dusty, it's called a sandstorm.So what should this be called? "Crowd violence?" The priests were swept into a gust of wind.This sentence is really strange, but there is no other word to describe it.After all the priests flew up, they fell out.At this time, Wen Chai rushed over from nowhere.After driving away the blond priest with a strong movement, he stood in front of Ghisien.At this moment, he temporarily stopped his movements and looked at the stormy crowd. Suddenly, he shouted ecstatically: "Carl! I really have to respect you!" Carl, who was standing in the distance with the arrow on his back, looked at Wenchai with a confused expression.Wen Chai shouted: It's the hot sword Gran and Jack!I know what you're hiding under that big pine tree! "
"Hidden OPG?" "Well. Even his OPGs were removed when Hassler was arrested. But Carl hid the OPGs that were removed from Gran's body. I asked him, didn't he say he didn't hide the weapons ? Karl replied with aplomb that the OPG is not a weapon." "Hey...that's right, that Mr. Hassler has brought his daughter with him, so of course he can't escape from the mounted police with his bare hands." "You're right." Merian smiled, watching my hand take the reins of the Thundermaster.我一面握着御雷者的缰绳，一面吹着口哨前进。这景象真的可说是很壮观的。 一个是拉着马匹缰绳行进的美男子战士，还有坐在马匹上面的漂亮仕女，以及在后面排排跟随着的一群游民。 那些原本要偷袭我们的男子全都鼻青眼肿，或着腿一跛一拐的，他们被妻子或其他家人扶持着行走。我会不会揍得太用力了？就连那些男子的家人也全都一副狼狈的模样。当时我和那些男子打得差不多可以结束的时候，他们的家人一窝蜂赶过来，要我不要杀了那些男人，手都快变成脚那般拜托我，弄得我心情变得很怪。虽然现在他们还是跟随在我后面，不过，每个人还是一副非常不安的眼神，我对着这些人，故作高兴地喊着：“好，已经到了。看到那些了吧？” 那些男子和他们的家人一面看着开始出现在道路两旁的农田，一面点头。我也跟着环视农田。在结束秋收的农田里，一捆捆的麦草以及麦茬子散在那里。此时，我看着这片农田的眼睛看到了一群人。 在距离稍远的地方移动身子的一群人，看来大概有二十个人左右。他们把绳索绑在一棵大树上，正在拉着绳索。他们是想要把树木拔掉吗？我开始让御雷者往那个方向行走。那些游民们先是犹豫了一下，然后就立刻跟随在我身后。 距离越是靠近，就听到人们喊叫的声音变得越是大声。Hey!Hey!hum.他们的确是在拔树。好像是在开垦农田吧。有不少人拉着绳索，正在拔树。有些是才要开始长胡须的少年，甚至有些是从结实的肩膀可以感受到中年之美的大婶，在他们周围，则是围着小孩少女，在看他们拔树。 那些人可能也有看到我们走近，所以都停下了手边的事，表情讶异地看着我们。可是他们之中有一个人用欢迎的语气说：“你是修奇？” Huh?who is this?我想起这个声音了。这个黑脸孔的人，穿着、沾湿汗水的衬衫，一边擦拭额头，一边走来，他是…… “费雷尔？” “哎呀！这是谁啊。是修奇！真高兴见到你。” 费雷尔几乎是蹦蹦跳跳地跑过来，然后他抓住我的手，开始和我握手。我任由费雷尔尽情握我的手，我只是用惊慌的目光看着他的脸。 “什么……啊，真高兴见到你，费雷尔。可是你怎么会变成这样？” “这是劳动所留下的痕迹啊。哈哈哈！” 费雷尔挽起衣袖的手臂晒得黑黝黝的，而且有肌肉健美地突起。我仔细一看，连脖子和胸口也似乎变得有些粗壮厚实。不过，最重要的，我还是因为他那张变黑的脸孔，所以觉得他看来很陌生。我好不容易才露出微笑，说道：“哈，哈哈……最近你要是跑去跟人说你是巫师，一定没人会相信吧？” “哈哈，你在说什么啊！我在这附近可是很出名的。人人称我是卡拉尔的Fellow mage（伙伴巫师）费雷尔。” 卡拉尔的Fellow mage费雷尔？那么说来，史奈尔小径的黑魔法师里奇蒙曾经是个耕种史奈尔小径的土地的农夫吗？ 不管怎么样，我带去的游民们受到费雷尔和卡拉尔领地居民们的欢迎。那天晚上，游民们的用餐礼貌使我不禁想起艾赛韩德。晚餐结束之后，我帮忙处理让游民有临时睡觉的居所，结束之后，我被邀请到费雷尔的家中。 我和梅莉安坐定位子之后，费雷尔高兴地笑着，并且带进来一名陌生的男子。费雷尔对我说。 “这一位，你还记得吗？” 我先是摇了摇头，然后看着这位才刚出现的男子。Who is he? 那名男子用木讷的表情静静看了我一会儿之后，就大步走去把木柴丢进壁炉里。我用呆愣的眼神看他，但他只是就这么坐到椅子上，随即双手交叉在胸前，并没有说什么。费雷尔格格笑着说：“这位是寇达修先生。你怎么不记得和温柴在一起的间谍呢？” “啊！原来是艾德琳说的那一位。愿意留在这里的……” 那名男子轻轻地点头。看来这可能是在和我打招呼吧。hehe. 这个人比温柴还要夸张多了。梅莉安对他打招呼，但是寇达修先生完全无视于此。于是梅莉安涨红了脸孔，我摇了摇头，而费雷尔则是格格笑着。 费雷尔拿了酒瓶和简单的食物，摆放在桌上，坐了下来。 “好，这个欢迎会好像太过简单了一点。不过，我真的很高兴见到你。” “是。我突然找来，一定添了你很多麻烦吧？” “不。有人来，这是很令人高兴的事。正如同修奇你也知道的，这块领地人力非常不足，不是吗？” 费雷尔的语尾变得很小声，并且看了一眼寇达修先生的眼神，不过，寇达修先生仍旧双手交叉在胸前，只是瞪视着壁炉。我笑着说：“是的。我也认为可能是这样，而把那些人带来这里。如果可以的话，我希望你能让他们在这里定居下来。” 费雷尔摊开双臂，做出欢迎的身体动作。 “不管多少人，我们都很欢迎。房子需要多少，我们都有，而且农田也很多。” “真是太好了。我明天告诉他们，他们一定会很高兴。” “是。不过，我们到现在为止，都一直因为没空，无法尽兴聊一聊。你们其他伙伴现在怎么样？在场的寇达修先生就是因为特别关心温柴先生的近况，而来这里。” “啊，是。您一定很关心吧。这有些说来话长。” “好。冬季夜长，而且柴火也够。亨德列克说过：将疲惫的身体靠在椅子上，倾听着到村里来躲避暴风雪的冒险家说故事，乃是冬夜之喜乐。” “亨德列克……有关那个人的事应该也会说到。” "what?" 冬夜冗长，如同一条黑暗的通道。 那是一股被密闭的感觉。比起那晴朗爽快的夏夜，冬夜简直令人觉得心头很闷。壁炉的柴被烧掉之后，飞散出火花。虽然长时间下来，我们一直在讲话，旅行通过那条既黑又长的通路，但是冬夜的尽头还是很遥远。 我一面看着壁炉飞散出的火花，一面说道：“关于那棵树——” "what?" “刚才田里那棵树，真是怪了，为何田中间会有树木呢？” “啊，那块农田是新开垦的田。” "yes?" “是的。托你的福，能够拔掉那棵树，真是太谢谢你了。这里男人实在是太少了。我有考虑过是不是用魔法来拔树。可是事实上，我最近早上很早就起床工作，所以连记忆咒语的空闲时间也没有。” “我能帮上忙，真是太好了。可是既然人很少，为何要开辟新农田呢？” “这样才会有外地人聚集过来，不是吗？我是想让有效耕地多一点。最近大陆上到处都多了许多游民。” “是因为神临地的缘故吗？” “是啊。幸好我们领地先经历了那件事，所以在公文来之前，我们就已经很清楚应对方法。这附近都在流传着，说这里是大法师费雷尔守护的土地。” 我不禁露出了微笑。 “而……实际的理由呢？” 费雷尔稍微睁大了眼睛，随即嘻嘻笑着说：“因为长长的冬季里，领地的居民们没事做。只是坐着不动的话，容易遭逢不好的事。所以需要有件事让他们合力去做。事实上，开垦农田是只要用几次挖掘法术就能做到的简单事。但是你看看，就连小孩子也跑来捡石子，连妇孺们也都把小石子捡起装到裙子上，如此搬运，同时所有人都来造田。所以我才会连拔这棵树的魔法也制止自己用。” “我心里头也是这样猜想。我走向前去拔树反而不好。” “不。修奇你是这个领地的恩人之一，所以居民们会因此很高兴。英雄回来之后所做的迷人事迹，足以成为整个冬季的话题。” "Ugh!" “大概会是这样子说你吧。'修奇·尼德法骑着一匹他们至今见过最高大的巨马，一到达卡拉尔领地，就帮助那些辛苦开垦农田的居民，弄垮一整个森林的树……'他们应该会这样形容吧。” “可是只有一棵树啊！” “英雄故事大都会那样发展下去，这你不知道吗？” “拜托……到时候请你上前去阻止一下那种故事的流传。” 费雷尔格格笑了出来，然后伸展了一下他那因为劳动而疲累的身体，同时随口问道：“修奇你骑来的那匹马……请问是御雷者吗？” I nodded.费雷尔用平静的眼神看着我，说道：“我刚才就猜到了。因为这是匹银色马鬃的黑马。吉西恩殿下去世了吗？” 我又再点了点头，说道：“吉西恩把端雅剑留给杉森，把御雷者留给了我。如果按照你刚才所说的英雄故事的发展形式，嗯……大约数十年后，应该就会制造出这样的传说吧。'拜索斯的王子，同时是伟大的冒险家吉西恩·拜索斯，他在最后一刻留下的两件宝物分别给了曾经和他同生死共患难的同伴。万一这两件宝物能再被找回，必能叱吒列国，号令百世！'”费雷尔这一次哈哈大笑了出来，连寇达修先生也露出了微笑。 我表情苦涩地望着桌子。桌上的烛火有一缕细烟袅袅上升着。那是一缕像是马上就要断灭的细烟…… 吉西恩握住胸口，费力吐出像是马上就要断气的气息。 妮莉亚抱着他，不停地呜咽；卡尔则仿佛就像是祭司般，对所有神祇祈祷。他喊出的祈祷，只差内容没有诅咒，其实在语调上几乎都像是在诅咒。他现在对着所有神祇，硬要它们救吉西恩命。Really! 为什么偏偏这个时候艾德琳和杰伦特都不在这里啊？为何偏偏是这个时候！ 吉西恩费力地说道：“卡尔……死者的托付……是一生的债务……我这个人很狡诈……所以我要赋予你一生无法脱离的……包袱……” “吉西恩！吉西恩！” “我拜托你……守护拜……索……斯……呵呵……” 吉西恩发出像吹笛的呼吸声。卡尔则是拉着自己沾血的头发，喊着：“不行，不可以！你不能这样死！” “咿咿咿咿！” 吉西恩咬紧牙关，瞪大双眼。像是不能就这么死掉地挣扎着。 他的急促呼吸声已经变得稍微平静下来了。他对卡尔说：“拜……托……” “我知道了，我知道了啦！请你振作点，振作点！” 吉西恩的脸上浮现出了微笑。我看着我那滴落到膝上之后在裤子上制造出湿痕的眼泪。此时，吉西恩的手指费力地移动。 “端……” 他手指的是自己的腰。是端雅剑？我用颤抖的手费力地拔出端濉剑。在那一瞬间，有一阵细细的鸣叫声传到我的脑子里。 “呵呃，呵呃。” 端雅剑无力地发出鸣叫声。我抓住吉西恩一直试着要握剑却一直下滑的手，帮他握住端雅剑之后，紧握住他的手。 “端……雅……” 端雅剑过了一阵子之后才回答： “……你要死了吗？” 吉西恩无力地点头。端雅剑用努力忍住痛苦的声音，说道：“如果很费力，就不要说了。啊，嗯，那个。我已经历过许多主人死亡。持剑之人一定要有死亡的打算！嗯。也就是说，我已经很习惯了。已经很习惯了啦。” “太……好了……” “我当然是很好！当然。我一点儿也没关系。一点儿也，一点儿也……你这个笨蛋！” 吉西恩暂时停止说话，露出了一丝微笑。 “墓……墓……” “墓？什么，啊，墓碑上面要那样刻？笨蛋，这里很辛苦？当然啦！像你这种笨蛋家伙，死了还是会声名狼籍！你这个笨蛋！死啊，快死啊！你这个坏蛋，大坏蛋！呜嗡嗡嗡嗡！”端雅剑放声鸣叫了起来。吉西恩费力地接着说：“杉，杉森……端雅……端雅拜，拜托……” "Gixion!" 杉森如鸡屎般大的眼泪潸潸落下，同时啪地跪了下来。吉西恩的瞳孔，这一次则是向着我，他说道：“修，修……御，御雷……你……” 我什么话也说不出来了。只是不断点头，除此之外，没有我能做的事。吉西恩这才变得一副安心的表情。 “三，三……合力……心满意……” 然后吉西恩就断气了。妮莉亚喊了一声凄切的尖叫声：“吉西恩！” ... “他说的是什么意思呢，修奇？” “咦？啊，是。我在前往这里的路上，也是一直在想这个问题。我大概知道是什么意思了。” 费雷尔用柔和的目光看我。我则是眯起眼睛，看了一眼烛光。 “对于卡尔，他是嘱咐卡尔用下半辈子来守护拜索斯，而对于杉森，他给了杉森端雅剑，至于我，他给了我御雷者。他应该是想要把他的一部分留给我们三个人。可能也包含要我们三人互相合力保护这个国家的用意吧。我和杉森被选为是卡尔的辅佐者。” "I see." Ferrell nodded.我弹了一下手指，露出微笑，说道：“还有，嗯。在这之中，也应该包含了吉西恩在死前一刻所流露的幽默感。杉森现在多亏有端雅剑，变成一位很有智慧且能说善道的骑士，是吧？” “哈哈哈……那么修奇你的情况如何呢？” “也是一样啊。如果让杉森骑御雷者，这样一来御雷者就太可怜了，那是有这层含意的；当然啦，我失去了我的马，这也是理由之一吧。” "I see." Crack, clap.在壁炉里燃烧完的木柴又有一根倒了下去。寇达修先生默默无言地拿起拨火棍拨弄壁炉。迸出了一些火花，寇达修先生随即皱起眉头。 寇达修先生对食物看也不看一眼。他只是默默地一直喝空酒杯里的酒，费雷尔还是那样喝酒。而我也是，正在慢慢喝光酒杯里的酒，至于最后一个人，她从刚才就已经靠在椅背上打盹了。梅莉安因为还不适应长途旅行，所以显得非常疲倦。不管怎么样，我们三个人坐着的那一桌开始寂静无声。仿佛变得像是在哀悼吉西恩的那种气氛。 Hoo hoo.吹过窗外的冬季风声简直狂暴到令人觉得野蛮的地步。 寇达修先生又再握住桌上酒杯，像是随口问话似的开口说：“所以，温柴呢？” 我放下酒杯，啪地拍了一下额头。 “哈哈！您知道吗？现在这句话是您三个小时以来所讲的第一句话！” 寇达修先生摸了摸脸颊上毛糙的胡须。费雷尔微笑着，把身体靠到椅子上，他说道： “这已经算是好很多了。一开始，我们整天下来连一两句话都很难听得到呢。” “这我可以想象得到。因为温柴以前也是这样。可是，寇达修先生需要花多久时间才会开始和女人讲话呢？” “女人？什么啊，就连对男人，他都不太讲话了。” “呼。看来寇达修先生更是严重多了。” 寇达修先生在费雷尔和我把他放到舌头上面，随便横切纵刮的时候，只是慢慢摸着酒杯边缘。过了一会儿，他以随和的语气，说道：“温柴到底怎么样了？” 我举起双臂，做出投降的动作。费雷尔则是笑着把手臂撑在桌上，准备开始听我讲述。 我双手交叉在胸前，看着壁炉，说道：“他去追哈修泰尔侯爵了。”
"You mean, they'll come back again?" "Yes. It should be like this." Karl shook his tired head to the left and right, and did not say a word for a while.Then, looking at the sunlight shining into the window, he said slowly: "In this way, the foundation of the nobility will be completely shaken. What is the foundation of the nobility? In fact, it is the kind of baseless behavior that is regulated by arrogance and independence." A sense of superiority. If you are a really superior person, you can be respected by others without doing anything at all. But there is no connotation, only a superior consciousness will become violent.Although that kind of violence seems strong and powerful at first glance, it will be defeated when it encounters more violent forces.What I'm about to do now seems even more brutal than what Hendrick did back then.Karl Hutant's name would become a name of terror, so terrible that it would become a halo of light too luminous to meet. " Is this really Carl?I looked at Carl in amazement.But how I see it, he still looks like that laughing scholar who flips through the books in his nest.However, Karl said with terrifying eyes: "I will let them rely on the king to exist. Nobles? Even nobles, in front of the king, will become no different from other people. Their arrogance and their authority will be crushed." I really have nothing to say.So, while looking at the window, I murmured: "... Ghisien seems to owe you a huge debt of favor." Carl nodded. "He's so ruthless. This man...he's a man so great as to be ruthless. Greatness is not achieved by great valor and profound knowledge alone.Greatness has to be just greatness.Those who can do this are great people.I was able to understand this when I saw Githion.What people say without knowing the inside story is actually the truth. In fact, he should have been king..." "So, what will they do with the Marquis?" Karl glanced at me first, then nodded and said, "Of course the Marquis should be portrayed as a hero." "This is really outrageous!" Shan Sen kicked down the chair and stood up.Karl and I looked at Shan Sen with round eyes, while Wen Chai frowned.Shan Sen said: "Well, is this a new type of punishment? May I ask if there is a new type of punishment called 'Motherland Hero'?" That's an interesting speculation.Shan Sen was talking excitedly.Although Nelia also looked like she wanted to say such a thing, but as soon as Shansen finished speaking, she sat in her seat and could only nod.Hahaha.What a nice bunch of people they are.I rubbed my forehead and laughed, and Carl smiled too. "No, my brother Fisher. I just said it directly in that sense." Shan Sen took a deep breath, showing that he could raise his voice and shout a little more, then he stared blankly at my expression.I shook my head with a smiling expression.Immediately, Shan Sen looked at Wen Chai, and Wen Chai said coldly: "Sit down and wait for that person who is smarter than you to speak. Just wait quietly, and you will know the whole story." Shan Sen pulled up the chair with an embarrassed expression, and sat upright looking at Carl (but why was Nelia relieved?). "Please explain to us." "Okay, I know. Do you still remember what the blond priest said? He said: The nobles will think that if the royal family sets a precedent and a famous family like Harshtel is easily dealt with, then the royal family will always Can persecute the nobles." "Huh? Ah, yes. He said so." "This just shows how fragile the kingship of our country is. In fact, there are too many powers in a country. In addition to the sacred and inviolable powers, the religious world also has a lot of power. Although the magic world is a single Structure, but too strong and powerful. However, fortunately, Hendrick and Soroch left good traditions, so until now wizards only like to be a noble scholar in an ivory tower.The dragon is... the dragon maintains a certain friendly relationship with humans because of the dragon soul envoy, otherwise, the power of the dragon is certainly enough to endanger the royal family. Also, the elves and dwarves are not bound by the royal authority, and they can move freely.Thinking about it this way, our country is really going all the way, and it is so precarious that it makes people sweat, isn't it? " Shan Sen took a breath with a yellow face.Carl said with a chuckle: "There was a time..., and I once had great ambitions like Qingyun. But this country really has no future." "Carl?" After Carl coughed dryly, he changed the subject. "In any case, a country that cannot achieve centralized power is very troublesome. This problem can be easily understood if you think of it as a family. If the head of a family cannot stand as the head of the family, it will How? His family will definitely laugh at him. So, now in our country, the nobles are laughing at the royal family." "so what?" "Three hundred years after King Lutanio and Hendrick, the Byzos royal family faced the biggest challenge of the Jeppen War. From our point of view, it seems that history is accidental, and we even feel that how things happened It has become like this, but behind it, there is a closely related causal relationship. The Jeppen War, the rebellion conspiracy of the Marquis of Harshtel or Nex Shulizhe, the awakening of Klad Meso, the blood of the Dragon Soul Envoy severing..., all these events can be summed up in one sentence: Byzos has begun to shake. The foundation accumulated by the king and Hendrick has now begun to weaken. Now we These incompetent descendants have exhausted the legacy of the heroic age." grunt.Why do I feel that swallowing saliva is also a kind of hard work. "Under such circumstances, if the Marquis of Harshtel is accused of rebellion, the nobles will definitely be greatly shaken when judging the authenticity. This is unavoidable. Therefore, we must vote for it first. Good. Therefore, the Marquis of Harshtel must die for the royal family. This is very important. The Marquis of Harshtel must die for the country and the king. Then for other nobles, it is also It's okay to ask for something like: 'Look, even the Marquess of Harshtel does that. You owe your loyalty to the King, too'. Do you understand?" "Ouch, my God... my head hurts." "Of course, we can't ask for this directly, but we can create that tendency. And that's enough. Now, we must inject new power into Baizos. I mean absolutely inhuman power.The power of man, the fantasies of heroes, were only summer daydreams, and now the bitter winter is coming.The age of heroes is no more.In the past, the legacy of the heroic age unfolded the horizon that gave birth to our consciousness, and now it is time for us to emerge from this legacy and make a new leap.This is the autumn of Byzos's magic. " This is one of Karl's shortcomings.Because he thinks too highly of everyone who listens to him.I couldn't understand what he was talking about.Shan Sen scratched his head violently, and finally thought of something to say. "Then... I see. So, the Marquis of Harshtel must not be allowed to return to the Byzos Imperial City, right?" "That's right. No matter what happens, he can't be allowed to appear in this world. That's why I'm looking for you today. Now we have to find him immediately."
The sunshine in winter is especially comforting. "It's hot...I should be able to take this off." Merian kept moving to get off the coat she was wearing.I felt Merian's gaze prick the back of my neck.After a dry cough, I said, "Okay. Heh, huh. It's great that the weather is so nice in winter. It's good for traveling, right?" "You still scare me, saying that the weather will be very, very cold..." The bragging of adventurers is innocent.Please stop staring at me like that.I originally mobilized all kinds of bragging to scare Merian.I said that we would starve for days in the freezing cold, and sleep with our hungry stomachs, but we also had to be wary of the bloody teeth of the monsters chasing after us, and could not sleep peacefully The night of terror... But by your side, one of the most powerful adventurers in history is walking with you, so you can trust him and follow him. (Should I tell her that, in fact, I still expect her to look at me with the emotion of 'I admire Mr. Xiu Qi, I will always believe in you'!) But it has been two days since I left Eramus City, the weather during this period has been incomparably sunny, the three meals are full, and let alone a monster, there is not even a little rabbit. And the most powerful adventurer ever dozed off, almost fell off the horse, and then was tortured by the noble lady sitting behind him for ten minutes, listening to her muttering endlessly.How can I do this?I really want to sleep!At this time, I really hope that bandits will show up in a swarm and kindly ask me to 'hand over everything and get out of here with my life', that would be great. "Hand over everything!" "Long live!" My yell startled the Bandit, Merian, and myself.Men swarming from both sides of the road looked up at me with 'panic' written on their faces.The moment I felt an unbearable compulsion to scream, I said, "There are only seven of you!" My second yell didn't have any appeal. After listening to it, the bandit and Merian seemed to be immersed in deeper doubts.I may have said something that misled my essence.I dismounted.no.I should hurry up and improve my personality. I looked at Merian with tragic eyes. "Merian, you stay on the horse. I will protect you. In case I die, the Thundermaster will take you safely..." "Xiu Qi! You idiot, why did you dismount! You should run away together!" Uh.Merian, please!If I work so hard, you should say something that echoes me. "Boys always say that at times like this!" "That's why boys will hear the phrase 'stupid' from girls! And don't you mean your words and deeds are inconsistent!" "I don't do what I say?" "Yes! You said that you only do what you can do!" "... Sometimes things happen that go against my beliefs. And this time, it doesn't go against my beliefs." "what does it mean?" "I dismounted because I could win. Do you not believe me so much? I even demonstrated sword skills with the priests of Leti. I am not afraid of these seven vagrants!" Those men kept their eyes wide open, watching Melian and me fighting regardless of the situation, and when they heard the word 'homeless', they immediately showed a look of shock.I turned my head and shouted: "Guys! You came here from the southern woodlands to take refuge here and feel that life is difficult, so you want to start a bandit trade, right? And this is your first time, right?" "Uh, uh?" "You're asking me how I know? You can tell by looking at the things in your hands. Actually, how did I know in the first place? You can tell by looking at how nervous you are." The men with hoes, shovels, and sickles now began to make an undisguised backward movement.it is good.Wait, stepping back is an undisguised gesture, isn't it?Hmm!It's not very important. "Okay, are you going to fight?" The men looked at each other.Seeing their appearance, I felt very unbearable, so I put down my sword.Why on earth is this happening?It is spectacular to have seven big men lined up in a row.Their sunken cheeks were stained with mud, and they had clumps of untrimmed beards on their cheeks and chins.Clothes... probably because I didn't have time to take care of them, so I just let them wear on my body. Rather than calling them clothes, I might as well call them rags.And in those hungry sunken eyes, one could feel murderous intent.These people have actually reached the end of the road. "Damn it, come on!" Among those men, there was still a strong-looking man who took a step forward and began to rush over.Immediately, other people followed suit and began rushing forward desperately. "Ahhhh!" God.When Leti's priests attacked, they didn't make any sound at all. The sound made by Leti's priests was just 'drink! ' It's just a gasp.In fact, they didn't even scream. "This guy, if you fight like this, I will die!" Shan Sen yelled while fending off the long sword that was cutting towards his neck.The opponent didn't take back his sword, but instead jumped back, creating a distance as a defense, while his hand was already preparing for the next attack.Really great!But the priest did not observe Wen Chai. Wen Chai passed by him, then swung his knife, and when he walked away again, the priest immediately collapsed to the ground. Where Wen Chai rushed, there was a very tall priest waiting.The giant priest held two long swords tightly and was about to attack Wen Chai.But Wen Chai fended off the two swords that Fei slashed at once, and said with a chuckle: "Double swords? This is a technique that has been lost for a long time even in the legends of our country. I'll let you pay the price of obsessing over old stuff. " Wen Chai's body guides the sword.After his body brushed past the opponent's body, the sword seemed to be moving behind him.That's all my eyes can see.Then the opponent lowered his sword and fell forward.Wen Chai didn't look back at all, just said: "Don't stand there in a daze! You should know that there will be a sword that will move your head!" Whoops, I swung my greatsword and jumped back a step.When, oh my god!A tingling tremor ran through his wrists, shaking his shoulders too.This sword seems to be quite accurate! After I calmed my breath, I looked forward and saw the blond priest holding a sword, standing there looking at me.I suddenly yelled: "Chop harder." The blond priest nodded.You bastard, you were lied to by me!Dangdang!I barely parried the blond priest's sword.Then, at the moment of the sword's impact, I quietly let go of my strength.The opponent immediately moved forward and began to slide out.I giggled and slid forward immediately. "Ah ah ah ah!" The blond priest's face was wrinkled.He started backing away immediately, but I pushed him like hell.This guy, if you draw your sword, I will die, why should I let you go? In an instant, the blond priest and I pushed and ran for about ten steps.There is such a person!I have already pushed ten steps, and I haven't fallen yet! "I can't even fall like this!" I kicked my foot towards the shin of the opponent's calf.However, the blond-haired priest evaded, and I made an empty move and let the blond-haired priest run away.He only took two steps.However, for the blond priest, two steps are enough.He stabbed hard again.Oops! "My weapon is longer!" At the moment when the trident flashed, the sword that the blond priest was about to stab at was swung to the side.The blade of the trident collided with the long sword, and I fell backwards and rolled straight back. "Nelia! I love you!" "I've always had a headache about it! Because I'm so cute! Hahahaha!" After Nelia completely stunned me, she began to stab out the trident.Gritting his teeth, the blond priest swung down to block the trident that was stabbing at him.The moment the trident fell, another priest rushed over and stepped on the trident.After Nelia missed the trident, she took several steps back. hateful!There are too many people on the other side!Shan Sen grabbed three people and was fighting alone; Wen Chai kept moving to prevent being surrounded, and thus exhausted his own strength.So now he can't even attack the opponent.As for Alfred, who had used up his memory magic, he planned to fight with his body, picked up the javelin that had fallen on the ground, and started waving it.His first attack was so horrific that even the dwarven beater was startled. "Boy, play better! Whose eyeball are you trying to gouge out?" "Oh, oh! I'm sorry. Ah, I didn't expect this thing to be so heavy...Esaihand!" "Ok?" Although Esaihand turned his head quickly, it was too late.Leti's sword brushed against his shoulder, and Ai Saihande turned halfway, then lost his balance and fell down while turning around.Although Alvnaid swung his javelin desperately, the opponent gently cut his javelin in two and kicked Alvnaid.Alfred fell beside Isaihand and said, "Uh! Mr. Isaihand, I'm sorry..." As if to say something, Esaihand was about to raise his head, but Priest Leti stepped on his chest with his foot.hateful!Nelia, who had no weapon, yelled out a strange sound and ran towards Ethhande. Nelia turned her arms while running, and several daggers flew across the air.The priest who had stepped on Esaihand and raised his long sword hurriedly stepped back.However, he couldn't dodge the arrow shot by Karl, and he was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell backwards.Very good, leave it to Carl and Nelia first!I turned my head again and rushed towards the blond priest. "When you die, remember to shout Xiuqi Nidfa, die! This person killed you!" The blond priest smiled fiercely and slashed over.Although the blond priest's long sword bounced off the flying sword, but after the sword bounced up like a wicker, it flew back again. "Uh uh uh!" I felt a tingling pain in my thigh, and in an instant, my leg became completely weak.As if I had no knees in the first place, my whole leg was bent down.I was kneeling, but I still swung the huge sword, but the blond priest just moved his wrist slightly, and moved my sword aside. I gritted my teeth and looked up at the blond priest holding the sword.The moment the sword was raised above my head, I closed my eyes tightly.Now I'm screwed! But the sword did not fall.Instead, there was a strange sound of footsteps.After the strange footsteps passed by me, they stopped in front of me.I open my eyes. "Gicien?" It turned out that Ghisien stood in front of me after struggling to move his legs.The moment I looked up at Githion's back, my body froze and I couldn't say a word.Nelia shouted in the distance: "You are crazy! Please get out of the way!" Gishon raised the Duan Ya sword as if he didn't hear it.Buzz buzz!The blond priest frowned and said, "Go to hell." Still standing in front of me, Ghisien said slowly, "Die well...there's no such thing. Stupid. There's only such a thing as 'live well'." "yes?" "Because at this very moment... I'm still alive." I don't know if Ghisien is laughing, but his shoulders kept shaking.The blond priest nodded and said: . "You're right. You live this moment like eternity. Hope this moment is happy for you." Then, the blond priest began to walk forward slowly.The other priests just watched with complicated expressions.Although Ghisien's body didn't move, his shoulders began to tense up.no.Should I rush forward?Should I push Githion away?But I can't take any action at all, I can only look at the back of my king. Kaaaaaah! A flickering thing quickly shot up into the sky.I followed the ray of light blankly and raised my gaze.Immediately, I saw a black dot drawing a circle in midair.And the flickering object that shot towards the circle was... Duan Ya Sword? "squeak!" The chirping of vultures is very sad.While my ears were buzzing, I heard the pounding of my heart almost shattering, and I lowered my gaze. The blond priest's sword had pierced Ghisien's stomach. "Cough, cough, cough." Ghisien just coughed and didn't move.I couldn't feel the fight around me at all, I just looked at him.The blond priest said in a low voice: "Please forgive me. You who should have been king." After the blond priest's sword was drawn, Ghisien knelt down on his knees.Snapped.The Duanya sword bounced into the air and stuck on the ground beside Giseon.Buzz buzz!The Duan Ya sword buzzed as if it was about to be pulled out from the ground. Ghisien crouched in front of me, trembling.Is he about to fall forward like this?However, Ghisien did not fall.He leaned on his knee with his left hand, and stretched out his trembling right hand to Duan Yajian.The blond priest looked at him with a cold expression. "I'm alive." Ghisien said with a voice as thin as breathing, and held the Duan Ya sword. He used the Duan Ya sword as a cane and wanted to stand up.The blond priest shook his head and slowly raised his long sword. "You bastard, stop!" I yelled to get up, but my legs wouldn't work.As a result, I hit my cheek hard and rolled to the ground.Tears welled up in his eyes because of the pain in his cheeks.I rubbed my eyes in panic and looked at Githion. Ghisien was looking up at the blond priest with melancholy eyes.The sword of the blond priest is slowly but continuously rising. Finally, the sword was raised to his head.However, Ghisien did not close his eyes, he still tried to stand up.The blond priest shook his head lightly and said, "Please rest in peace." At this moment, a terrible scream burst out from behind Leti's priests. Upon hearing the scream, the blond priest looked back in panic.This burst of screams actually made the Leti priests, who are known as masters of swords, turn their heads and pay attention.And those priests who turned their heads after hearing the scream are now unable to move their eyes because of the scene in front of them. If it's dusty, it's called a sandstorm.So what should this be called? "Crowd violence?" The priests were swept into a gust of wind.This sentence is really strange, but there is no other word to describe it.After all the priests flew up, they fell out.At this time, Wen Chai rushed over from nowhere.After driving away the blond priest with a strong movement, he stood in front of Ghisien.At this moment, he temporarily stopped his movements and looked at the stormy crowd. Suddenly, he shouted ecstatically: "Carl! I really have to respect you!" Carl, who was standing in the distance with the arrow on his back, looked at Wenchai with a confused expression.Wen Chai shouted: It's the hot sword Gran and Jack!I know what you're hiding under that big pine tree! "
"Hidden OPG?" "Well. Even his OPGs were removed when Hassler was arrested. But Carl hid the OPGs that were removed from Gran's body. I asked him, didn't he say he didn't hide the weapons ? Karl replied with aplomb that the OPG is not a weapon." "Hey...that's right, that Mr. Hassler has brought his daughter with him, so of course he can't escape from the mounted police with his bare hands." "You're right." Merian smiled, watching my hand take the reins of the Thundermaster.我一面握着御雷者的缰绳，一面吹着口哨前进。这景象真的可说是很壮观的。 一个是拉着马匹缰绳行进的美男子战士，还有坐在马匹上面的漂亮仕女，以及在后面排排跟随着的一群游民。 那些原本要偷袭我们的男子全都鼻青眼肿，或着腿一跛一拐的，他们被妻子或其他家人扶持着行走。我会不会揍得太用力了？就连那些男子的家人也全都一副狼狈的模样。当时我和那些男子打得差不多可以结束的时候，他们的家人一窝蜂赶过来，要我不要杀了那些男人，手都快变成脚那般拜托我，弄得我心情变得很怪。虽然现在他们还是跟随在我后面，不过，每个人还是一副非常不安的眼神，我对着这些人，故作高兴地喊着：“好，已经到了。看到那些了吧？” 那些男子和他们的家人一面看着开始出现在道路两旁的农田，一面点头。我也跟着环视农田。在结束秋收的农田里，一捆捆的麦草以及麦茬子散在那里。此时，我看着这片农田的眼睛看到了一群人。 在距离稍远的地方移动身子的一群人，看来大概有二十个人左右。他们把绳索绑在一棵大树上，正在拉着绳索。他们是想要把树木拔掉吗？我开始让御雷者往那个方向行走。那些游民们先是犹豫了一下，然后就立刻跟随在我身后。 距离越是靠近，就听到人们喊叫的声音变得越是大声。Hey!Hey!hum.他们的确是在拔树。好像是在开垦农田吧。有不少人拉着绳索，正在拔树。有些是才要开始长胡须的少年，甚至有些是从结实的肩膀可以感受到中年之美的大婶，在他们周围，则是围着小孩少女，在看他们拔树。 那些人可能也有看到我们走近，所以都停下了手边的事，表情讶异地看着我们。可是他们之中有一个人用欢迎的语气说：“你是修奇？” Huh?who is this?我想起这个声音了。这个黑脸孔的人，穿着、沾湿汗水的衬衫，一边擦拭额头，一边走来，他是…… “费雷尔？” “哎呀！这是谁啊。是修奇！真高兴见到你。” 费雷尔几乎是蹦蹦跳跳地跑过来，然后他抓住我的手，开始和我握手。我任由费雷尔尽情握我的手，我只是用惊慌的目光看着他的脸。 “什么……啊，真高兴见到你，费雷尔。可是你怎么会变成这样？” “这是劳动所留下的痕迹啊。哈哈哈！” 费雷尔挽起衣袖的手臂晒得黑黝黝的，而且有肌肉健美地突起。我仔细一看，连脖子和胸口也似乎变得有些粗壮厚实。不过，最重要的，我还是因为他那张变黑的脸孔，所以觉得他看来很陌生。我好不容易才露出微笑，说道：“哈，哈哈……最近你要是跑去跟人说你是巫师，一定没人会相信吧？” “哈哈，你在说什么啊！我在这附近可是很出名的。人人称我是卡拉尔的Fellow mage（伙伴巫师）费雷尔。” 卡拉尔的Fellow mage费雷尔？那么说来，史奈尔小径的黑魔法师里奇蒙曾经是个耕种史奈尔小径的土地的农夫吗？ 不管怎么样，我带去的游民们受到费雷尔和卡拉尔领地居民们的欢迎。那天晚上，游民们的用餐礼貌使我不禁想起艾赛韩德。晚餐结束之后，我帮忙处理让游民有临时睡觉的居所，结束之后，我被邀请到费雷尔的家中。 我和梅莉安坐定位子之后，费雷尔高兴地笑着，并且带进来一名陌生的男子。费雷尔对我说。 “这一位，你还记得吗？” 我先是摇了摇头，然后看着这位才刚出现的男子。Who is he? 那名男子用木讷的表情静静看了我一会儿之后，就大步走去把木柴丢进壁炉里。我用呆愣的眼神看他，但他只是就这么坐到椅子上，随即双手交叉在胸前，并没有说什么。费雷尔格格笑着说：“这位是寇达修先生。你怎么不记得和温柴在一起的间谍呢？” “啊！原来是艾德琳说的那一位。愿意留在这里的……” 那名男子轻轻地点头。看来这可能是在和我打招呼吧。hehe. 这个人比温柴还要夸张多了。梅莉安对他打招呼，但是寇达修先生完全无视于此。于是梅莉安涨红了脸孔，我摇了摇头，而费雷尔则是格格笑着。 费雷尔拿了酒瓶和简单的食物，摆放在桌上，坐了下来。 “好，这个欢迎会好像太过简单了一点。不过，我真的很高兴见到你。” “是。我突然找来，一定添了你很多麻烦吧？” “不。有人来，这是很令人高兴的事。正如同修奇你也知道的，这块领地人力非常不足，不是吗？” 费雷尔的语尾变得很小声，并且看了一眼寇达修先生的眼神，不过，寇达修先生仍旧双手交叉在胸前，只是瞪视着壁炉。我笑着说：“是的。我也认为可能是这样，而把那些人带来这里。如果可以的话，我希望你能让他们在这里定居下来。” 费雷尔摊开双臂，做出欢迎的身体动作。 “不管多少人，我们都很欢迎。房子需要多少，我们都有，而且农田也很多。” “真是太好了。我明天告诉他们，他们一定会很高兴。” “是。不过，我们到现在为止，都一直因为没空，无法尽兴聊一聊。你们其他伙伴现在怎么样？在场的寇达修先生就是因为特别关心温柴先生的近况，而来这里。” “啊，是。您一定很关心吧。这有些说来话长。” “好。冬季夜长，而且柴火也够。亨德列克说过：将疲惫的身体靠在椅子上，倾听着到村里来躲避暴风雪的冒险家说故事，乃是冬夜之喜乐。” “亨德列克……有关那个人的事应该也会说到。” "what?" 冬夜冗长，如同一条黑暗的通道。 那是一股被密闭的感觉。比起那晴朗爽快的夏夜，冬夜简直令人觉得心头很闷。壁炉的柴被烧掉之后，飞散出火花。虽然长时间下来，我们一直在讲话，旅行通过那条既黑又长的通路，但是冬夜的尽头还是很遥远。 我一面看着壁炉飞散出的火花，一面说道：“关于那棵树——” "what?" “刚才田里那棵树，真是怪了，为何田中间会有树木呢？” “啊，那块农田是新开垦的田。” "yes?" “是的。托你的福，能够拔掉那棵树，真是太谢谢你了。这里男人实在是太少了。我有考虑过是不是用魔法来拔树。可是事实上，我最近早上很早就起床工作，所以连记忆咒语的空闲时间也没有。” “我能帮上忙，真是太好了。可是既然人很少，为何要开辟新农田呢？” “这样才会有外地人聚集过来，不是吗？我是想让有效耕地多一点。最近大陆上到处都多了许多游民。” “是因为神临地的缘故吗？” “是啊。幸好我们领地先经历了那件事，所以在公文来之前，我们就已经很清楚应对方法。这附近都在流传着，说这里是大法师费雷尔守护的土地。” 我不禁露出了微笑。 “而……实际的理由呢？” 费雷尔稍微睁大了眼睛，随即嘻嘻笑着说：“因为长长的冬季里，领地的居民们没事做。只是坐着不动的话，容易遭逢不好的事。所以需要有件事让他们合力去做。事实上，开垦农田是只要用几次挖掘法术就能做到的简单事。但是你看看，就连小孩子也跑来捡石子，连妇孺们也都把小石子捡起装到裙子上，如此搬运，同时所有人都来造田。所以我才会连拔这棵树的魔法也制止自己用。” “我心里头也是这样猜想。我走向前去拔树反而不好。” “不。修奇你是这个领地的恩人之一，所以居民们会因此很高兴。英雄回来之后所做的迷人事迹，足以成为整个冬季的话题。” "Ugh!" “大概会是这样子说你吧。'修奇·尼德法骑着一匹他们至今见过最高大的巨马，一到达卡拉尔领地，就帮助那些辛苦开垦农田的居民，弄垮一整个森林的树……'他们应该会这样形容吧。” “可是只有一棵树啊！” “英雄故事大都会那样发展下去，这你不知道吗？” “拜托……到时候请你上前去阻止一下那种故事的流传。” 费雷尔格格笑了出来，然后伸展了一下他那因为劳动而疲累的身体，同时随口问道：“修奇你骑来的那匹马……请问是御雷者吗？” I nodded.费雷尔用平静的眼神看着我，说道：“我刚才就猜到了。因为这是匹银色马鬃的黑马。吉西恩殿下去世了吗？” 我又再点了点头，说道：“吉西恩把端雅剑留给杉森，把御雷者留给了我。如果按照你刚才所说的英雄故事的发展形式，嗯……大约数十年后，应该就会制造出这样的传说吧。'拜索斯的王子，同时是伟大的冒险家吉西恩·拜索斯，他在最后一刻留下的两件宝物分别给了曾经和他同生死共患难的同伴。万一这两件宝物能再被找回，必能叱吒列国，号令百世！'”费雷尔这一次哈哈大笑了出来，连寇达修先生也露出了微笑。 我表情苦涩地望着桌子。桌上的烛火有一缕细烟袅袅上升着。那是一缕像是马上就要断灭的细烟…… 吉西恩握住胸口，费力吐出像是马上就要断气的气息。 妮莉亚抱着他，不停地呜咽；卡尔则仿佛就像是祭司般，对所有神祇祈祷。他喊出的祈祷，只差内容没有诅咒，其实在语调上几乎都像是在诅咒。他现在对着所有神祇，硬要它们救吉西恩命。Really! 为什么偏偏这个时候艾德琳和杰伦特都不在这里啊？为何偏偏是这个时候！ 吉西恩费力地说道：“卡尔……死者的托付……是一生的债务……我这个人很狡诈……所以我要赋予你一生无法脱离的……包袱……” “吉西恩！吉西恩！” “我拜托你……守护拜……索……斯……呵呵……” 吉西恩发出像吹笛的呼吸声。卡尔则是拉着自己沾血的头发，喊着：“不行，不可以！你不能这样死！” “咿咿咿咿！” 吉西恩咬紧牙关，瞪大双眼。像是不能就这么死掉地挣扎着。 他的急促呼吸声已经变得稍微平静下来了。他对卡尔说：“拜……托……” “我知道了，我知道了啦！请你振作点，振作点！” 吉西恩的脸上浮现出了微笑。我看着我那滴落到膝上之后在裤子上制造出湿痕的眼泪。此时，吉西恩的手指费力地移动。 “端……” 他手指的是自己的腰。是端雅剑？我用颤抖的手费力地拔出端濉剑。在那一瞬间，有一阵细细的鸣叫声传到我的脑子里。 “呵呃，呵呃。” 端雅剑无力地发出鸣叫声。我抓住吉西恩一直试着要握剑却一直下滑的手，帮他握住端雅剑之后，紧握住他的手。 “端……雅……” 端雅剑过了一阵子之后才回答： “……你要死了吗？” 吉西恩无力地点头。端雅剑用努力忍住痛苦的声音，说道：“如果很费力，就不要说了。啊，嗯，那个。我已经历过许多主人死亡。持剑之人一定要有死亡的打算！嗯。也就是说，我已经很习惯了。已经很习惯了啦。” “太……好了……” “我当然是很好！当然。我一点儿也没关系。一点儿也，一点儿也……你这个笨蛋！” 吉西恩暂时停止说话，露出了一丝微笑。 “墓……墓……” “墓？什么，啊，墓碑上面要那样刻？笨蛋，这里很辛苦？当然啦！像你这种笨蛋家伙，死了还是会声名狼籍！你这个笨蛋！死啊，快死啊！你这个坏蛋，大坏蛋！呜嗡嗡嗡嗡！”端雅剑放声鸣叫了起来。吉西恩费力地接着说：“杉，杉森……端雅……端雅拜，拜托……” "Gixion!" 杉森如鸡屎般大的眼泪潸潸落下，同时啪地跪了下来。吉西恩的瞳孔，这一次则是向着我，他说道：“修，修……御，御雷……你……” 我什么话也说不出来了。只是不断点头，除此之外，没有我能做的事。吉西恩这才变得一副安心的表情。 “三，三……合力……心满意……” 然后吉西恩就断气了。妮莉亚喊了一声凄切的尖叫声：“吉西恩！” ... “他说的是什么意思呢，修奇？” “咦？啊，是。我在前往这里的路上，也是一直在想这个问题。我大概知道是什么意思了。” 费雷尔用柔和的目光看我。我则是眯起眼睛，看了一眼烛光。 “对于卡尔，他是嘱咐卡尔用下半辈子来守护拜索斯，而对于杉森，他给了杉森端雅剑，至于我，他给了我御雷者。他应该是想要把他的一部分留给我们三个人。可能也包含要我们三人互相合力保护这个国家的用意吧。我和杉森被选为是卡尔的辅佐者。” "I see." Ferrell nodded.我弹了一下手指，露出微笑，说道：“还有，嗯。在这之中，也应该包含了吉西恩在死前一刻所流露的幽默感。杉森现在多亏有端雅剑，变成一位很有智慧且能说善道的骑士，是吧？” “哈哈哈……那么修奇你的情况如何呢？” “也是一样啊。如果让杉森骑御雷者，这样一来御雷者就太可怜了，那是有这层含意的；当然啦，我失去了我的马，这也是理由之一吧。” "I see." Crack, clap.在壁炉里燃烧完的木柴又有一根倒了下去。寇达修先生默默无言地拿起拨火棍拨弄壁炉。迸出了一些火花，寇达修先生随即皱起眉头。 寇达修先生对食物看也不看一眼。他只是默默地一直喝空酒杯里的酒，费雷尔还是那样喝酒。而我也是，正在慢慢喝光酒杯里的酒，至于最后一个人，她从刚才就已经靠在椅背上打盹了。梅莉安因为还不适应长途旅行，所以显得非常疲倦。不管怎么样，我们三个人坐着的那一桌开始寂静无声。仿佛变得像是在哀悼吉西恩的那种气氛。 Hoo hoo.吹过窗外的冬季风声简直狂暴到令人觉得野蛮的地步。 寇达修先生又再握住桌上酒杯，像是随口问话似的开口说：“所以，温柴呢？” 我放下酒杯，啪地拍了一下额头。 “哈哈！您知道吗？现在这句话是您三个小时以来所讲的第一句话！” 寇达修先生摸了摸脸颊上毛糙的胡须。费雷尔微笑着，把身体靠到椅子上，他说道： “这已经算是好很多了。一开始，我们整天下来连一两句话都很难听得到呢。” “这我可以想象得到。因为温柴以前也是这样。可是，寇达修先生需要花多久时间才会开始和女人讲话呢？” “女人？什么啊，就连对男人，他都不太讲话了。” “呼。看来寇达修先生更是严重多了。” 寇达修先生在费雷尔和我把他放到舌头上面，随便横切纵刮的时候，只是慢慢摸着酒杯边缘。过了一会儿，他以随和的语气，说道：“温柴到底怎么样了？” 我举起双臂，做出投降的动作。费雷尔则是笑着把手臂撑在桌上，准备开始听我讲述。 我双手交叉在胸前，看着壁炉，说道：“他去追哈修泰尔侯爵了。”
