Chapter 100: What Do You Fight?

"Really?" said this, Erin's eyes also flashed a little.

To be honest, appearance has always been a concern for Erin, she will have so many misfortunes, will experience so many hardships, in fact, there is a big reason because of this ugly appearance. And now, if she can really get rid of these ugly marks, then it is not an exaggeration for Erin to be a new life.

Seeing Erin's happy appearance, Regner also relaxed a little. He had feared that the tragic deaths of Nancy and Alpacino would devastate her, but now it seemed that the girl's situation was not so bad as that.

Of course, Erin is not a child, and it is naturally impossible for her to show all her feelings on her face. So, Regner knew that Erin hadn't completely forgotten the painful things as she had shown.

In order to completely solve the pain in her heart, first, it will take time to fade, and second, Regna thinks it is better to find a way to bury the whole bodies of Nancy and Alpacino.

As for the bodies of the two of them, it is not difficult to get them. Nancy and Alpacino are not attribute abilities after all, and both of them are also very mediocre in terms of personal strength, so their corpses don't have much research value.

With this in mind, Regner immediately wrote a letter to General David Stoke, who was guarding the Costa Fortress. Although the Stoke Empire and the Hawk Empire have been at war for a long time, they still retain the tradition of returning the corpses of enemy soldiers after the war. Saron kept these two corpses before, just to lure Regner into fighting him.

Although he won the battle with Regner, Saron lost to Anne Lot, who had always kept a low profile. So in the end, Saron still messed up, and he lost his life. Now that Saron is dead, the two bodies have no value. As for using these to make some fuss about Regner?

Therefore, after receiving Regner's letter, David also readily said that he could return the two bodies.

It's just that he saw that Regner didn't mention his equipment in the letter, so he was happy to keep silent. Those pieces of equipment aren't ordinary, and if they can be sent to the thousand-year-old capital, maybe they can curry favor with Kilroan?

Therefore, in the end, the return of Alpacino and Nancy's bodies was very smooth. It's just that on the appointed day, the lineup of the Hawke Empire to pick up the corpse made David scared.

Dark Elegy Regner, Frost Queen Annelot, Half-Elf Irene, and ...... Tempest Sword St. Mallorite......

When David saw Mallolet from the city wall, he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, although this sword master declared that he would not interfere in the war between the two empires, but you must know that his daughter only returned from a serious injury at the hands of the Stoke people two days ago, and almost everyone in the Chino continent knew how much the Wind Sword Master loved him, the new girl. Who can guarantee that this old madman will not come and tear down the Costa Fortress alone in a fit of rage to vent his daughter's anger?

But in the end, it turned out that David was too worried, and although Malloret followed, she was just not worried that Annelot was so close to the Stoke Imperial Fortress. To put it bluntly, he came to be a bodyguard for his daughter.

And under the deterrence of the Wind Sword Master, those Stoke people rarely did not play any tricks. They simply showed respect to several Hawke Empire powerhouses, and then honestly handed over the bodies of the two people.

Of course, it is better to dispose of the corpse in accordance with the wishes of the living. So in the days when Regner was waiting for David's reply, he also briefly investigated the following kinship between Nancy and Alpacino.

In the end, Alpacino's body was returned to his hometown in a coffin. With Regner's status, it's still very simple to do these things. Moreover, since Alpacchino was not killed in battle at the Costa Fortress. So the Hawke Empire originally intended to treat him as a deserter, and it is impossible for a deserter to have a war death pension.

However, Regner later inquired about how the low-ranking warrior fought for Erin's sake. After learning the truth, Erin immediately cried again. And Regner did not hesitate to use some means, not only to get Alpacino's family to receive the highest level of war death pension. Al Pacino himself was posthumously crowned the Warrior of the Hawke Empire, and his name was revered in Valhalla, a dedicated shrine to fallen warriors in Melindell.

Of course, Regner didn't know about the unpleasantness that preceded Erin and Alpacino's final parting. Because apart from the two of them, only the sun god Perot knew about it. Now that Alpacchino is dead, Pero is such an ethereal existence again. Therefore, as long as Erin doesn't say it, Regner will never know. And Erin also made up her mind to forget about it completely.

So Regner didn't wait until the end, until Alpacino, that stinky boy, wanted to take advantage of Erin before he died. Otherwise, he would have to consider whether he should put in such a big effort to help Alpacino deal with the aftermath.

Interestingly, every Valhalla warrior has a sentence under their name in recognition of his selfless dedication to the Hawke Empire. And the passage after Alpacino's name was written by Regner, and he wrote: A strong man who is fearless and fearless because of love and ideals.

Eventually, Regner finally confessed his feelings for Erin. On the one hand, it's because the guy has done so much for Erin, and on the other hand, it's because he's dead. Otherwise...... Hey......

Of course, that's all a few months away.

Now, Regner is burying Nancy with Anne Lot and Erin.

Unlike Alpacino, Regner unexpectedly discovers that Ms. Nancy no longer has any relatives. So strictly speaking, Ms. Nancy's disciple Erin two years ago has become her closest person. So Regner had no choice but to leave the question of what to do with Nancy's body to Erin.

And Erin, after a short thought, finally spoke, "Teacher, she has always longed for this peace. She once told me that Costa Fortress was a battleground for the war between the two empires, and that as long as the war continued, the Costa Fortress would never be at peace. So, let the teacher rest here! I want the teacher to see the final peace of the Costa Fortress, and that is when the peace that the teacher hopes to come. ”

So, after Erin made her decision, Annelot took the initiative to cast a spell and dig a grave on a hill with a beautiful view near the Costa Fortress. Regner then carried the coffin inside, and the final burial work was carried out by Erin alone.

Ragnar and Annelot tried to help, but Erin refused in a soft but firm tone.

The burial work took a long time for Erin, but fortunately, she had the strength of a mid-level priest, and the slight physical advantage brought by the dark elf bloodline, and finally Annielot secretly added a bull's brute force. Therefore, in the end, this heavy work was really completed by this half-elf girl who was less than twenty years old.

After burying Lady Nancy, Erin froze in front of her grave for a minute, and then she burst into tears again.

This time, Regner didn't step forward to comfort Erin with anything. Let her cry again to vent, preferably so that she cries and forgets all the painful things.

Anne Lot cast several spells on Erin to maintain her spirit, and then fell silent. After a while, she looked at Regner and asked in a low voice, "Hey!"

"What's wrong?" Regner turned.

"Why is there war, why is there killing?" said Annelott softly. Although she had previously enlightened Regnar who was confused about similar problems in the orc territory of Reims.

But it wasn't because Anne Lot had understood anything, but because she hadn't thought about it. At that time, Anne Lott had not experienced so many things, and her personality was a little more indifferent than now. At the time, she was just doing what Wellles ordered - to help Regner grow as quickly as possible. So the fighting, the killings at that time were just things that Annelot should do for this purpose. That's why she was so enlightened to Regner at the time.

And now, she's out of the Lunaris Thieves Guild. If before she lived for work and tasks. Well now she survives only to live. And what is life? Anne Lott didn't figure it out, so she didn't understand why she would kill people because of life, and she would study the tools used to kill people. And why do other people kill people? Why do wars happen?

Regner was stunned for a moment when he heard Annelot ask, and then he scratched his head: "I don't know either." ”

"Then why did you kill someone?" asked Annelot.

"I ......," Regner thought for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty: "For myself, and for you, right? I'm in MIA, and if I kill people, I will gain more power, a higher status, so that I can protect myself, and I can protect you, so that you will not be harmed by others." Should...... Isn't that so?"

In fact, Regner himself did not know if he was telling the truth. All he knew was that his busy life had left him with no patience to explore these complex issues compared to his original life.

"......" Annelot was noncommittal, and turned her head to look at Malolit, who had been silent, and then asked, "Father, what do you say?"

"I don't have a definitive answer either. The expression on Malolet's face at this time was not half joking or frivolous, he looked at the Costa Fortress not far away, and then continued: "I think war and killing are the nature of living beings. When a group of creatures are together, as long as their individuals have a sense of self, then there will inevitably be disagreements, and disagreements will lead to strife, and strife is the seed of war. ”

"In other words, war will never go away?" asked Annelot softly.

Mallorette nodded, "I think so, my child." ”

"Then the reason why you didn't go to war, old man, is because you understand this truth?" Regner asked, "Because war is inevitable, you know that even if you come forward, you can't let the flames of war be completely extinguished." Therefore, old man, you don't want to do this futile move?"

"It's not ......" Malloret froze for a moment, then shook her head.

"Why is that?" Regner couldn't help but ask.

"Just because of ......" said Malolet, with a little emotion on his face, as he looked at the setting sun, and then said as if talking to himself, "just because I don't want to follow in the footsteps of that man......"
