Chapter 33 Chapter Thirty-One

Jia Lai's speech to Piccolo Shou "The most distressing thing between people is that with a sincere attitude, they hope to get the goodwill and friendship of others, but what they get is malice and harm. And many people do harm to others in this way, and They regard this disgraceful behavior as a trivial matter in their lives, and they are unwilling to try their best or use any method to correct it, preferring to shut themselves out of the light. "It is no wonder that my lord, King Korangujah, is greatly indignant and annoyed by your crazy and hostile aggression. On the contrary, if you and your subordinates commit crimes against his land and people It is surprising that his words did not stir his heinous atrocities and inhuman crimes. Since he has always loved his subjects very much, no one can understand how sad he is.

Everyone can understand that he would be even more distressed if these atrocities and crimes were committed by you and your subordinates, because for a long time, you and your ancestors, like him and his ancestors, have always been Friendship, and this friendship is still guarded, maintained, and defended as sacred as it is, not only with him and his subjects, but even with Gentile Boiados, Bretons, Miner, etc. Men, even those who live off the coast of the Canary Islands and Isabella, do not think it easier to destroy the firmament, and move the sea to the clouds, than to destroy the alliance between you and me.They dare not act rashly, and never dare to provoke, harass or infringe on a certain party, just because they are concerned about the other party.

"What is more, our sacred friendship is full of heaven and earth, and there are few people today - whether on the mainland or in the islands - who do not desire to join our alliance and accept our treaty. They value us As much as we value our own country and territory. As far as I can remember, no arrogant king or unreasonable commonwealth has dared to attack us. Don't say it is your country or my country, it is the country of our allies. They I dare not touch it either. Even if someone recklessly wants to cause trouble and is just around the corner, there is no one who does not immediately dismiss their attempt as soon as they hear about the alliance between you and me.

"The king and subjects of our country have never harmed, violated, or charged you. What fanaticism is now driving you to destroy alliances, trample on friendship, violate the rights of others, and brutally seize our land? Where is the faith? Where is the axiom? Rationality Where is it? Where is humanity? Where is the awe of God? Do you think that these acts of yours can hide from the eternal God, the impartial God who is in charge of rewarding and punishing our actions? If you think so, then you are wrong, because everything escapes But his judgment. Is it fate, or the influence of the stars, that keeps you from being still? Yes, everything has a final stage, and when it reaches its apex, it has to fall, because it cannot stay on top forever. This is the inevitable end of all who do not use reason and moderation to overcome their complacency.

"But, even if your happiness and peace were destined to come to an end, should it affect our king upon whom you rested? If your house should fall, should it fall on the builder's stove Is this so unreasonable, so unnatural, beyond human comprehension. Even a Gentile, without definite evidence that those who are alienated from God and irrational, will despise It is also unbelievable when it is dignified and holy. "If we have done any harm to the people or land of your country, if we have sheltered those you dislike, if we have not assisted your cause, if your name and honor have been damaged because of us, or , to put it more clearly, what if some solicitor devil wants to kill you?

② Isabella: A city founded by Columbus in northern Haiti in 1493.Another theory refers to the defeat of the Bretons by Saint-Aubin du Camille of Charles VIII in 1488, resulting in the annexation of Brittany to France. To lead you astray, to create something out of nothing, to spread rumors, to make you believe that we have done something that is unworthy of our deep friendship, you should first find out the truth, and then inform us, and we will surely satisfy you, as we have always pleased you in the past.But (by Eternal God!), what is your purpose?Are you planning to rob and harass my master's land like a demon?Do you assume that he is weak and incompetent, and therefore unwilling, or lacks manpower, financial resources, strategy, or combat skills, so that he cannot resist your unjust attack?

"Please leave here at once, and spend the rest of the day tomorrow, returning to your own country, without any more harassment and destruction on the way; pay us a thousand gold coins to compensate for the damage you caused on our land. Pay tomorrow first Half, and the other half shall be paid on May 15th of the following year. Before the payment, the three dukes of de Tunamul ①, de Badfes ②, and de Manuai ③, as well as de The Prince Gratel, the Viscount Morpiay, and the Viscount Morpiay, remain with us as hostages." ① Tunamul, meaning: "push the mill". ② Badfess, meaning: "short legs".

③ Manu Ayi, meaning: "dirty". ④ Gratel, meaning: "mangy skin". ⑤ Morpiai, meaning: "lice".
