Act VIII

Indeed, the last time Langton saw Karen was before the start of the previous War for the Crown. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At that time, the two who were only four or five years old met each other at a banquet as the marriage partners of the two families.

To this day, he can still recall the throbbing feeling he felt when he saw Karen, who was dressed in a lovely dress.

Langton once thought that he would have a brilliant life, become a respected necromancer, marry a beautiful wife, and reap his happiness, even if not as dazzling as his brother.

However, the truth ruthlessly shattered his illusions.

Lost the crown war, and he had no talent for necromancy, not even as good as ordinary people, and then came the news that the Amadeus family reneged on the marriage contract, and he was also snubbed by his father until today.

The reason why Langton tried to summon the Heroic Spirit was completely a move under the broken can, but he didn't expect it to succeed.

Now, the girl who has been absent for ten years is talking to herself, which makes Langton a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Rosen nudged him gently.

Langton stepped forward, trying to keep himself calm.

The Karen in front of her is no longer the cute little girl she used to be, uh, Langton means that although Karen is still cute, her title and name have long overshadowed her appearance.

The current position of Karen, which can only be looked up to by Langton.

"Hello. ”

Langton was still thinking about what to call the other party, but he saw that Karen had straightened the hair around her ear, and her face was still indifferent.

"I don't know how you got the summoner qualification, and I don't know exactly what you want to do, I'll just say one word. ”

Karen, in an unquestioning tone, said to Langton.

"If you still value your life, then it is better to withdraw from this war early, your luck has already run out when you summon the Heroic Spirit. ”

This is quite a blunt statement, and the implication is that Langton is not worthy of participating in the crown war, which makes Langton's face turn pale.

Although summoners cannot fight in the crown war, it is not absolutely impossible for various "accidents" to happen, especially for some summoners who are too weak, and it may be that the aftermath of the battle of the Heroic Spirits can cause them to suffer.

Therefore, there are some summoners who will choose to give up, which is quite a shame for the entire family, but in the face of danger, there are still people who will choose to save their lives and the continuation of the family.

"I ......"

Langton wanted to say something to retort, but Rosen spoke before him.

"Langton summoned me not because of sheer luck, but by fate. ”

He said, causing everyone around him to look at him.

"Spoken, spoken?"

"It's obviously a skeleton, how can it speak?"

"Even as a Heroic Spirit, this is outrageous, isn't it?"

There was a lot of talk and surprise.

Even Kalian, when she heard Rosen's words, was stunned for a moment before she cleared her throat and said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know there were talking skeletons, which is a bit offensive. ”

Even in the face of Rosen, the outlier in the skeleton, Karen still maintained her due composure.

Most of the Heroic Spirits are famous heroes in history, so no matter how weak their owner is, Karen is still quite polite to Lawson.

"However, as I said, as a child of a family who has not been able to master the first order of necromancy after seven years of study, Langton Ludwig is indeed not up to the task of being a participant in the Crown War, and although you may be quite confident in your own strength, you must know that the Crown War is not just about the strength of the Heroic Spirits themselves. ”

Politeness is politeness, but Karen is not polite to Langton.

"Out of sympathy for the weak, I'll leave it at that, and the rest will be slowly experienced tomorrow on the battlefield - provided that you live to see me, of course. ”

Turning to leave, ignoring whether Langton and Rosen would fight back, Karen returned to the dark wizard and gave Langton one last glance.

"Master Langton. ”

Immediately after that, there are the people of the necromancer line.

They had already heard Noah explain the situation before, and they just came up at this time in the hope of getting closer.

Although Langton is a waste material, he is always a member of the Ludwig family, and now he has even become a participant in the crown war like his brother Noah, if he does not die in this battle due to an accident, Langton will have a smooth path to pure politics in the future, even if he is not a necromancer, so they hurried over to befriend this second son, who is almost completely ignored in his daily life.

"With two combatants for the first time in history, this war must have been a victory for the Ludwigs. ”

"Young Master Langton is really a late bloomer, and the future must be immeasurable. ”

"I don't know if Young Master Langton has a sweetheart, my daughter is twelve years old this year, if the young master is interesting......"

Some of these people were a little weaker and couldn't climb up to a genius like Noah, so they turned their attention to Langton.

"Uh......"

Langton was not sure what to do when Lawson grabbed him by the arm.

"Wait, it's better to wait for my ...... after the crown war is over"

Others wanted to continue to curry favor with Langton, but Rosen only let out a little breath and obediently shut his mouth.

"I'm sorry, I'll miss ...... first"

Langton hurriedly explained, and was dragged to the balcony by Rosen.

The starry sky of Isrul is no different from that of the main material plane, when the constellation Lyra is shining in the north, which, in ancient legends, means that glory and blood will come at the same time.

The cold moonlight cast down, reflecting the ground gray.

The balcony here has long been standing with others.

The blood-colored rose Vivien was looking up at the three moons, her red eyes were glowing, and behind her, her heroic spirit was standing silently aside, with a thin presence, even more like an assassin than Rosen.

"Yo, son of the Ludwig family. ”

Vivien smiled, and she could faintly catch a glimpse of the pointed canines.

As a blood clan, Vivien, who is one hundred and ten years old this year, can indeed only be regarded as a young generation, and the bright red giant sword behind her is called Scarlet End, which is the heirloom of the Sebastian family, and she is also the youngest blood clan recognized by this weapon over the years.

She has no prejudice against Langton, in fact, this kind of little guy who has only been in this world for more than ten years can't get into her eyes at all, for Vivian, whether it's Noah or Langton, they are just humans, and it's just that Kalian's little girl can make Vivien look at it a few more times.

"Lord Vivien. ”

Vivien belonged to Langton's elders both by rank and in name, so he addressed each other by honorific titles.

"You've got a good Heroic Spirit. ”

Vivien nodded, then looked at Lawson.

"But in the next battle, I won't let go of the water because your strength is not strong, the Sebastian family has not won a victory for a long time, although we have time, we are not willing to wait forever. ”

"I understand. ”

Langton was silent for a moment, then replied.

"Enjoy this last night, look outside, there are many ladies who want to spend the night with you. ”

Vivien teased, causing Langton to blush, and then turned to leave, glancing at Lawson before leaving.

"I'm looking forward to meeting you on the battlefield, Mr. Skeleton. ”

Seeing the other party leave, Langton breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it really a wrong choice to participate in the crown war? ”

He muttered to himself, a look of loss on his face.

"Nope. ”

Rosen slowly placed his hand on Langton's shoulder.

"I will prove to you that participating in the crown war is a very correct choice, a person is strong, not only strong, but more importantly, here. ”

Rosen gestured to Langton's chest.

"It's courage. Some people are brave because they are strong, but some people are strong because they are brave. ”

Langton was a little confused, but what Rosen said did give him some kind of inexplicable strength, and his anxiety about the crown war was also dissipated a lot.

Perhaps this is the hero who left a name for himself in history, and just a few words can evoke the power in the depths of people's hearts.

"Mr. Alphonse. ”

"Rest well tonight, Langton, tomorrow is the real battle. ”

Rosen said, the soul fire burning silently in his eyes, unwavering.

"I'll take the final victory for you. ”

Rosen said, the soul fire burning silently in his eyes, unwavering.
