The wind blows the sand, the city of glory for stags, and a capital full of vicissitudes.
In this May when the spring breeze is blowing," the city did not give people much warmth.
The cold rain water poured on the earth...
The damp and cold air makes everyone want to hide at home. "Use warm food and kotatsu to resist the damp cold outside.
However, even if people want to resist this cold, the cold can still penetrate into every house and everyone's heart...
Click, click, click.
Scattered footsteps came from the city gate. Ten thousand soldiers walked slowly with tired steps under the rain on their heads.
Residents on both sides of the street opened the windows one after another to watch the army returning from conquering the terrorist organization.
But" the soldiers of this army didn't have much excitement and pride on their faces. The cold rain hit their steel armor, but it gave people a more bleak feeling.
Every one of them was full of tiredness and helplessness. There was almost no need for anyone to say anything. The residents knew that this battle...
Failed.
"How could this happen? Ten thousand people encircled and suppressed three thousand people, and they failed?"
"No? My son works by your Majesty's side. Didn't he tell me that it was a very easy encirclement and suppression campaign?"
"I also find it strange that this is the team led by the master of the Forest of Gifts. It will fail? It's incredible."
People were talking about it. "Looking at this troop's slow return.
Even though it is raining so heavily now, people can't help but open their doors and walk out. Some people with family members participating in this military activity looked at the army in front of them with worry. After seeing their son, husband, and father, these family members exhaled and rushed forward, and they were defeated. The returned family hug.
The idiot rode on the station, walking slowly at the front of the team.
Beside him is the same bread sitting on the cassowary.
Bread looked at the idiot from time to time, and she was wearing a cloak. "Rain water flows down her cloak. It seems... it adds to her a little worry.
"Baba..."
There was a call, full of sorrow and slight tension.
But the idiot slowly shook his head. "With the coldest and most common voice, he said, "It's okay." do not worry. "
Ok...
Of course the bread is okay.
But now it seems that if there is anything, I really can only see what I do next.
I just hope that... things can develop in a good direction.
The army took steps" first to the barracks.
After Lime counted the number and announced that the ten thousand troops were disbanded and went back to their battalions, she coldly glanced at the two leaders, the idiot and the bread, and took the lead, stepped out of the barracks, and headed to the royal palace. .
And the idiot and the bread are now silently following behind" without saying a word, and walking forward.
"Lord of the Forest of Gifts, what is going on? Why did your team fail?"
"We got news that you know the head of the terrorist organization" Is this true? "
"How much do you know about the key organization's attack on the border of our country some time ago? Is all this an arrangement of the royal family?"
Just stepping out of the barracks, the curious crowds outside have gathered around. Many people are idiots, wanting to get a satisfactory answer.
But the idiot kept his head down and said nothing. In contrast, Bread summoned a stone giant and a water giant, and kept pushing away the crowds on both sides, and walked forward around the idiot.
The royal district has been rebuilt for nearly a year.” The royal district has finally begun to look a little bit.
Although the huge deep pit in the place of the original castle seems to be unable to be filled now. But beside the deep pit, some simple structures have been erected. In the northernmost place, a large open space has been opened up. Come to the sacrifice of the sealed blood race once a year. But in normal times, there is a throne placed on it.” Obviously, it is a place used by the king to receive worship from his officials.
And now...
The crashing rain fell from the sky" and made circles on the slab-paved ground.
The current king of the Bucks, King, and Frederick Hughes. "He put on a cloak" sat down on the throne in the rain, with his chestnut eyes with a maturity that is not commensurate with his age, looking down. Beside him, the famous Man with mask on face.
On both sides under the throne, stood a lot of buck officials. After hearing the footsteps, they turned their heads, naturally, they also saw the three slowly coming.
The ordinary people seemed to be aware of the dignity of the atmosphere at this moment, and without the soldiers coming to stop them, they stopped one after another and stopped advancing. Instead, they watched their savior "step by step, towards their king."
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Knights, a clay figure, and Lime are back to report. Regarding this encirclement and suppression, report the situation and results of the battle."
Lime turned over the cloak at the beginning, knelt in front of Jin on one knee, and lowered her head. The rain fell down her hair, making the knight's figure more solemn.
After her, the idiot and the bread also drove a certain distance, and knelt silently. When Jin's gaze fell on the bread, the girl was taken aback for a moment, and the two giants of water and soil around her "lowered their heads" and dared not look up again.
Above the throne, Jin nodded.
He slowly stood up, carrying his hands on his back. There was a chilling sensation in those small chestnut pupils.
The idiot glanced at the boy, and suddenly, he seemed to have an illusion?
The look in his eyes..., he felt a touch of nostalgia for himself?
......Yes, it's like the old king... The old king who led the entire stag empire to the top also has such a pair of eyes.
"Count, I want to know the reason for your failure."
Kim opened. Although the voice is still a bit naive, it contains a primitive gloom that is almost like a beast.
That's right, "That's the voice of a cunning beast. Cruel, cold-blooded, but astute" is full of the wisdom of nature.
The idiot lowered his head and was silent. Seeing that the idiot did not speak, Jin naturally turned his gaze on Lime in front of him, and said, "You will answer my adjutant."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Lime nodded and stood up. Afterwards, she took out a piece of parchment that she had prepared a long time ago from her arms, "opened it, and under the rain, she slowly recited it in front of everyone.
"Subordinates believe that the failure of this encirclement and suppression is entirely due to the personal decision-making of the leader, the Earl.
When the Earl was given a great opportunity, he did not follow His Majesty's instructions and wanted to be greedy for merit, and wanted to capture the leader of the key organization. Such a sudden move made our army miss the special effects of lightning strikes, giving the opponent a month of preparation time. "
"But even after grabbing the leader of the other party, the Earl did not completely think about the problem from the perspective of the Bucks. After realizing that the other party is his friend, he immediately changed his attitude and wanted the other party to help him. Through uniting this terrorist organization to achieve some of his own goals. It is also because of this that, after the leader of the other party has been captured, the Earl finally let the other party go, without thorough arrest or beheading. The direct result of our army's action was returning without success, so the subordinates believed that your Excellency should "make your own explanation for this failure." "
Jin nodded." He looked at the kneeling idiot below with cold eyes.
The officials and people all around were also whispering, unable to believe the fact that all this happened.
"Count Idiot, is what you said to the adjutant is true."
The king asked and was idiot, but he lowered his head and nodded softly.
"So, do you have anything to explain."
The idiot finally raised his head and slowly said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates thought that this was originally a way to cut the roots. That's why they used the members of the terrorist organization as bait" and did not immediately kill. As for the final subordinates who let go of the leader, it was entirely because the other party promised that they would never attack the Bucks Empire again, and that they can give us the necessary assistance when necessary..."
"absurd!"
Jin interrupted the idiot's speech with a sudden shout. With this loud shout, the people who were talking about it immediately stopped and could only stand silently under the rain, not daring to speak any more.
"Assist? Your Excellency, I don't know what you are thinking!"
Jin started to walk slowly down from the throne. He opened his cloak and let the cold rain fall directly on his head, feeling the same coldness as the people around him.
"Do you think that our Bucks Empire is too weak, too weak to be able to rise up again in conjunction with terrorist organizations? Do you think that other countries around us are too tolerant of our empire and can tolerate us and the Key Organization A friendly negotiation agreement was signed between them?! What do you think!"
"..."..." "The idiot lowered his head and didn't dare to speak anymore.
After being scolded by the idiot, Jin immediately turned his head and pointed his finger at one of his ministers." He shouted: "Write a document and announce the whole sad continent immediately" and pass it on to all countries that may be involved in this matter. It is said that our stag empire is incompatible with terrorist organizations and will never become a sanctuary or tolerant country for any terrorist organization. The alliance with the key is completely a personal decision of a general in our country who made a mistake in decision-making. "The theory" does not represent my Bucks. position. Go now! "
The named [Book] reporter was surprised." Xiaojin drank so, he quickly replied "Yes!" "Fei Ye ran to the office building in the royal quarter and started writing.
Kim exhaled, and he turned his head. At this moment" he was already standing in front of the idiot, lowered his head, looking at the earl who was named by himself.
"It's hard to imagine, Lord Earl. You would make such a mistake. It's hard to imagine."
The idiot lowered his head, and the rain fell on his hair, seemingly turning black at this moment.
"Your Majesty, although the decision-making error this time is mentioned, the subordinates believe that the earl is personally to blame. However, there are still some things that the subordinates believe that this cannot be simply described as a decision error.
At this time, "Lime started to report again. Kim turned her head." Looking at the female knight, she clicked 1.
Head, said: "Well, you report."
"Lou" Your Majesty. "
Lime cleared his throat and slowly said, "During this encirclement and suppression process, our army once surrounded the gang organized by the original target key. It could have been wiped out in one fell swoop. However, when the leaders of those targets expressed the hope that they could be When exchanging money for his own life, your Excellency Earl agreed."
"Trip?!"
Jin suddenly turned his head, looking at the idiot who was kneeling on the ground with a little surprise in his eyes. And the idiot raised his eyebrows at this moment, raised his head and looked at the lime in front of him.
Everyone on the scene was stunned at this moment. You know, accepting bribes and gambling is a more serious problem than making mistakes! If you only make a wrong decision on one thing, no matter how bad the result is, it just means that you are not capable. But if money is involved, it's not just that simple thing.
"Count Idiot, I want you to explain clearly to me! What the **** is going on!"
Jin sternly asked, and as he scolded, people around him began to talk, and everyone looked at the idiot with puzzles and doubts. Even the current bread looks anxiously at the idiot, hoping that she can help explain, but how can she, who is speechless, defend the idiot?
After the idiot looked at the lime over there for a while, his gaze turned to Jin and said, "Your Majesty, the subordinates didn't intend to ask for the money. I hope that my wife can use this money to get the leader of the key organization. Purpose. Your Majesty, please don't listen to that woman's nonsense...,...
"Idiot, Lord Browning!"
Just when the idiot distinguished it, the lime over there suddenly shouted! She turned around, her cyan eyebrows were upside down, and she reached out and pointed directly at the idiot who was still kneeling in front of Jin and shouted, "Please respect the facts and don't distort it randomly! Your Majesty, I didn't want to say these things originally." I really can't understand some of the actions of the Lord Earl, so I hope that I can fight this Lord Earl here for my dignity as a knight and a woman! "
"You want a duel? Why?"
Jin looked a little puzzled and asked quickly.
Lime gritted her teeth. Now, she looked at the idiot who was kneeling on the ground with a look that was close to contempt, and snorted, "It's very simple. Because our earl has no decision-making ability as a leader, but also Greedy. What's more, during this march, your Excellency has repeatedly sexually harassed his subordinates because of his superiors. Idiot count, don't you dare to deny that these are not facts? !"
The idiot suddenly shut his mouth, his black eyes kept rolling, as if thinking of an excuse. However, this silence also means that what Lime said is not false. This also made the people around, as well as Jin, extremely surprised.
"Count, if this is the case, then the situation is different. The Lime Knight has the right to challenge you. Are you willing to accept it?"
In Jin's words, there is actually not much room for return. Based on Lime's current attitude and the facts she said, if the idiot does not agree to the challenge at this time, then everything is over.
Only "..."..."..."..." "...I understand, Your Majesty. "
The idiot nodded and stood up. He turned his head and looked at the lime ahead, his eyes still cold and ruthless.
The rain was falling.
Jin retreated, Lime also drew the sword from his waist at this moment, looking at the idiot in front of him severely.
The idiot also let the bread back down, shaking his right hand, the sword of darkness was already bathed in the black rain.
The faces of the people around changed color. "The whispers that were just now turned into an inexplicable worry and helplessness. Everyone’s eyes are now falling on the duel that is about to begin. People's palms are held tightly. I don't know what will happen next...
The sword in Hua Yi Lime's hand flicked, she coldly looked at the idiot" and said, "Your Excellency, if you can admit your mistakes to me here. And to ensure in front of everyone that in the future will no longer be rude to women. Then, I can stop this duel. "
What the female knight needs is an apology. It is also the compensation and respect that I have received for being insulted by idiots in the past few months.
but……
Idiot, but did not express anything.
His eyes were still extremely cold, without any emotion. Now, it seems that he doesn't care about apologies at all, just to fully meet the battle in front of him!
Rain..." Pouring.
Idiot and Lime face each other, standing with both swords.
Those rain water fell on them, on their armor, and slapped the water huā. The rain fell down along their swords, condensed on the point of the sword,
Water droplets, condensation.
Then it up and down, after shaking two or three times, "...,
The drops of water on the tip of the sword dripped.
"Slap on the ground" smashed.
Whizzing! ! !
…………………………………………………………
The rain continued to fall.
But the positions of idiot and lime have changed each other.
With their backs to each other, the swords in their hands have also moved to different positions.
Live, silence...
But after this silence, Lime slowly straightened her body and slowly inserted the sword in her waist. After that, the armor on her shoulders shattered and fell.
A blood stain on the shoulder was exposed.
As opposed to him, the idiot over there...
Patter.
Idiot, knelt down.
He bit Ji, covered the blood stain on his chest, and gritted his teeth tightly.
This scene was beyond everyone's expectations, everyone, now with their mouths open, staring at the scene before them dumbfounded.
Looking at the victorious Lime, and watching the idiot who was kneeling down, he didn't even blink.
"It seems" the outcome is divided. Knight Lime, your swordsmanship is amazing. "
Your majesty quietly praised. "
Jin nodded and walked slowly to the idiot over there. And the idiot, at this moment, gritted his teeth, slowly raised his head, looking at the cold-faced stag king in front of him.
Jin looked at the idiot, watched silently, after a long time...,
In a low voice) Thank you, teacher."
, "..."... (whispering) You have also grown a lot, Xiaojin. "
"Idiot, Earl Browning, in view of the decision error you made in this operation, you are suspected of taking bribes" and your sexual harassment of female subordinates. I hereby declare that "abolish your title of earl and be demoted to civilians! This decision is effective immediately" and will never be changed! "
