Chapter 168: Showdown (2)

Sophia's eyes flashed with a strange look: "As long as you are admitted to the temple and promoted to the rank of paladin within ten years, you can solve it perfectly."

It has been many years since a young paladin was born in the Empire, and the last paladin was Leonardo of your high can, and he is already older, and he has already married and had children.

The Divine Temple's ambition to control the countries has never been broken, and meddling in the marriage of the royal family is one of the means.

If it weren't for the strong opposition of various countries, priests above the bishop level would not be allowed to marry the royal family, and I believe that many countries would have completely become puppets of the temple.

Paladins are not among them.

If, as a paladin of the temple, you ask your father for marriage, whether it is the temple, or my grandfather, or my father, you will be happy to see it.

After all, you were born in the Empire, your roots, your family is still here.

Of course, even if ten years is too short, it doesn't matter if you don't advance to the Paladin.

As long as you quickly break through the awakening of the first three levels, become a knight of the title, and show enough talent, father and they will not object to our relationship, and will even secretly help you.

At that time, the Snape family will also benefit from this, becoming the first-class nobility of the empire, leaning towards the center of power.

This is also where I choose you and have the most confidence in you.

At least among those young warriors at the Imperial Capital Seminary, there is no one who can match your talent, or even far from it. ”

Philip looked at the girl in front of him, his expression was complicated, and he was surprised that she had thought so far ahead, and had really found a feasible path.

He thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, knights of the rank of the temple and above are not only used as an armed force to defend the diocese of their country.

You may also be sent to another country to dominate the diocese, which would be contrary to your original intention of not staying far from your homeland. ”

Sophia laughed: "That's true, it's a gamble.

Although I can't see the thread of fate in myself, I believe in my own vision.

If we are together, I will naturally follow you to a foreign land, and if you wish, assist you in managing the affairs of the diocese, large and small, and my education and awakening skills will be very useful to your cause, and to be your help.

One day, when you are promoted to the rank of Holy Knight and enter the Sanctuary, then you will have enough power to help me claim the throne of the Wardsmann Empire.

I believe that this day will not be too far away, my father is only 58 years old this year, don't you have the confidence to reach such heights in 40 years?

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can't become a holy knight, then you can only blame my bad fate.

At least I'm married to a Ward, so that the royal blood that flows through me won't be tainted by foreign blood, and I can stand behind you and taste the power of ruling a small foreign country.

It was your last speech today about dreams that reminded me not to limit myself to the predicament in front of me, try more things, and keep the original dream.

I want to thank you, Philip. ”

As she spoke, there was a look of longing in the girl's eyes.

To be honest, Philip was a little excited, but it was only a little, and he was still a little resistant to the temple.

However, if in the Wadesmann Empire, he did not have a particularly clear idea of how to plan his future direction.

First of all, it is certain that it is impossible to stay in the Wild Lion Division, and as he has grown older and more powerful, he has become more and more of a threat to Bruce.

Neither Grandfather Brad nor the rest of the Wild Lion wanted to see anything happen.

Therefore, he was silent, not knowing whether to refuse decisively, or perfunctorily promise to say more, and then wait and see.

The girl waited for an answer, and she saw the struggle in Philip's eyes, and when she frowned, the beautiful blue eyes were even deeper and more charming.

After being born again, Philip rarely had to make a decision so hard.

Compared with the indecisiveness and prudence of the previous life, more than ten years have been completely fused with the enthusiasm and decisiveness of this life, forming a strange chemical reaction.

In order to completely reassure Philip, Sophia hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth, tiptoed on his lips and kissed him gently, a cold wetness.

Sophia blushed and whispered, "I'll give you a little interest first, so that you can rest assured." ”

The 15-year-old's blood was surging wildly in his body, and Philip used the greatest perseverance to prevent himself from turning into a Night Demon wolf.

He couldn't help but think of those black eyes and the delicate little face the size of a palm, and suddenly felt a little guilty.

"You're a smart girl," he said in a dry voice, "and you've almost convinced me that you don't need to."

To tell you the truth, even if I was standing in front of a noble princess, if you were stupid and fat, I would have turned away long ago, and I did not have the patience to listen to your tirade. ”

Sophia also smiled and said generously: "In that case, I'm afraid my father should worry about how to marry me off."

I don't have to worry about that.

If you look like an orangutan, I'm afraid I won't have such an impulsive showdown with you, and I'm afraid I'll have to keep watching.

Now, can you tell me your answer?"

Philip said: "It's too sudden, I need time to think about it." ”

Sophia asked, "Is it because of the twin girls?"

Philip didn't ask her how she would know, Winston could even check his academic performance, and it was not unusual for a princess to know about Yun'er's existence.

He nodded and said sincerely: "No matter what the outcome is, I solemnly ask you not to implicate her, she is different from us. ”

Sophia asked him with a strange expression: "Don't you know that the union of the holy woman and the knight of the temple does not occupy the place of secular marriage?"

What's more, even if there is no Lin Yun, after you marry me, for the sake of balance, the temple will also arrange a holy woman for you, which is clearly stipulated in the temple code.

So, in my case, as long as you have a worldly marriage, only me.

For the rest, I have no power and I don't intend to interfere. ”

Philip really didn't know the trick inside, but he still felt that everything was too fast, maybe he hadn't really adapted to his identity and couldn't completely separate feelings and interests.

He had long known that his family would be an obstacle for him and Yun'er.

It's not the girl in front of you, there will definitely be someone else in the future.

But the thought of that slender figure standing alone in the shadows made his heart ache faintly.

"Although you paint a magnificent picture, it is not fair to you or to me to make such a hasty decision about your future.

You may find it strange, but I hope we can give each other a time to get to know each other and develop a relationship.

If two people want to help each other for a long time and become each other's support, in addition to interests, I think the more important thing should be feelings. ”

Sophia thought Philip was rejecting her, and lowered her eyelids in frustration.

But after hearing it, her eyes gradually glowed with a hint of light, and they became brighter and brighter: "Actually, I envy her, I only blame us for meeting too late."

How can a girl not dream of having her own love and be willing to become an accessory to interests.

I was in too much of a hurry today, so I made a bad impression on you, and that wasn't my intention.

It's just that we're not in the same life, and you're going to be back in Gokan City in a month, and if I don't take the opportunity during this time, I'm afraid it'll be too late.

You must think I'm insidious and philistine right now. ”

Philip shook his head: "Even if you are cunning, you are a beautiful little fox, I am just a little flattered. ”

As the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, and even turned into a hint of ambiguity, the two invariably adopted a delaying strategy.

Philip was going to think about it slowly, and maybe ask his grandfather for advice.

Sophia also came to her senses, maybe it was the back that stood in front of her before, which made her a little impulsive.

It's too big a thing, and you really can't expect to make a private decision for life the first time.

And, with more than two years to go before graduating, she also needs to get to know each other more and think about whether she made the right decision.

As for the special features of the two, it's not so much the handle as the secrets they share with each other.

Sophia touched her arm, and the garden became colder and colder at night.

Philip knew what he meant, and held out his arm for her to hold on, and went back to the banquet.

After agreeing to meet again in a few days, the two parted and returned to their respective circles.

Bruce had long since lost his sights, and only Wesley saw Philip and walked in front of him.

"I didn't expect that our noble princess would be very kind to you.

Tell me, where have you abducted the princess for so long?"

Philip said to himself, if you say it all, you will be scared to death.

So I can only play haha, I just want to get through.

As a result, Chuck and others, who rushed to hear the news, rushed up, and they were torn and laughed.

Tonight, the limelight of Gokan City topped the whole country, and even Vice Principal Taryn was drunk by the teachers of the other colleges, and he was drunk to death, and finally carried back to the hotel by Philip and the others.

Philip, who was a little weak-hearted, had insomnia for the first time.

In desperation, he could only spend an hour writing letters to the family members in Gaokan City one by one, and the longest and thickest one was naturally for Yun'er.

Of course, he will not stupidly explain things and dishes, but just use words to tell his lovesickness, as well as what he saw and heard in the imperial capital.

The team battle will take place in two days, and according to the plan discussed within the team, Philip will not play in the two rounds of the group stage, and will be protected as a secret weapon.

Sophia didn't move in the past two days, and everything in the garden that day, the two tacitly didn't mention it again, it seemed to be just a farce between children.

In addition to the congratulatory gifts from his aunt's family and Anna, Philip and the others are training intensely to adjust their condition and meet the real challenge.
