Chapter 338: Life is full of unwillingness

"He? Very good! Not at all surprised by the old man's question, Kratos, the eldest prince, also looked at the back of Krazer as he left, and nodded.

"Hehe, is it just good? I'm afraid that you are thinking in your heart, the person who can make the old man take a small step back under a frontal attack, I'm afraid this is the first one! The old man chuckled as if he knew what the former was thinking.

"Hey, hey!" was guessed by someone, and the eldest prince Kratos's grim face showed a rare smile.

"Maybe, this young man can really surprise us! I really didn't expect that Rolandor Henry, a gentleman, could find such an excellent person, hehe, it really responded to the saying spread of the Glenn people, every stone has its value! Looking at the palaces in the night, the old man's hand behind his back slowly raised, and the slight trembling continued at this moment.

"I can't dodge this blow, let alone take it!" Looking at the old man's slightly trembling hands, Kratos, the eldest prince's expression suddenly became extremely serious, and he admitted calmly.

"Don't say it's you with this blow, I'm afraid most people who have won the title of Legend won't be able to dodge, whether it's attack speed or destructive power, they have reached the level of a legendary archmage, but he has a fatal flaw!"

"Fatal flaw? Is it serious? Hearing this, the eldest prince Kratos raised his eyebrows and asked.

"If you face the existence of the same level, maybe this flaw will be covered by his mastery of magic, but if the opponent's level is one order higher than him, or if he is an opponent who is known for his speed, his flaw will be infinitely magnified." As he spoke, the old man's eyes gradually narrowed into a slit, and he explained in detail to the eldest prince. "Perhaps, it will become his fatal wound, but it is not impossible."

"Could it be his way of catching his opponent?" Hearing the old man say this, the eldest prince's mind moved, and he couldn't help but think of the scene just now, and after passing quickly, he keenly discovered the fatal flaw in the old man's mouth.

"That's right!"

Looking at the former with appreciative eyes, the old man nodded.

"His biggest flaw is that he relies on his eyes to catch his opponents, and almost everyone on this continent uses this way to capture opponents to fight, and it is understandable."

"But this low-level fighting style is only suitable for the weak, the real strong do not need to rely on their eyes to capture the opponent's movements, they can fight, if they don't get out of that low-level fighting style, it is impossible to become a real strong man."

"Oh, that's the case, but, he's young, I think there is still potential, as long as he is given enough time to grow, I think he will understand this way of fighting that belongs to the strong in the future." After listening to the old man's detailed explanation, the eldest prince nodded in a sudden realization.

"It's a pity that the time is too rushed, otherwise I can still teach him some real fighting methods, so that tomorrow's game will be more certain!" But the old man seemed to feel a little sorry for this.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, I don't care about those false names, the reason why I came back is just to take this opportunity to see my mother once!" As he spoke, the eldest prince's gaze fell into the depths of the palace complex.

Compared with the old man's gains and losses, the eldest prince Kratos seems to be much more free and easy, and he doesn't seem to care about the game that everyone is looking forward to, but what really makes him care is a trivial thing in the eyes of most people.

"Alas!"

Looking at the expression on the face of the eldest prince, the old man sighed helplessly, it was not easy to say that it was not easy to move him to participate in tomorrow's competition, of course he knew what the real purpose of the former's trip was, but he wanted to plan for it again tomorrow, because it was his greatest wish in the second half of his life.

"This young man, I want you to take him under your command!" Looking at the eldest prince with a stunned expression, the old man seemed to think of something, and suddenly proposed.

"Why? Although, now it seems that his potential is relatively good, but it is only potential, and no one can say what kind of achievements he will achieve in the future. ”

"That's because...!" Faced with the former's incomprehension, the old man's mind moved, and he was about to open his mouth to express his thoughts.

But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly closed his mouth, as if he was aware of it, turned his head to look at the wall around the martial arts arena, looked at the old man's movements, and the eldest prince who was listening seemed to have thought of something, and also followed the old man's gaze, and in the next moment, three figures suddenly appeared faintly on the wall under the cover of night.

Looking at the three figures on the wall with a smile on his face, the old man took the lead in speaking.

"Hehe, it's the three of you here! What about the others? ”

"It's just the three of us patrolling this area tonight, and the others, of course, won't be here, but if you make it bigger, I'm sure there will be more people!" Among the three figures standing on the wall, a slightly old voice suddenly sounded, taking the lead in answering, and there was a hint of rebuke and warning in his words.

Feeling the erratic voice, the eldest prince looked a little confused, he couldn't tell which of these three people this sentence came from!

But this question did not seem to be a problem for the old man, so he saw his head twisted to one side, and his half-squinted eyes flashed with a hint of inexplicability, and he spoke.

"Claw Mark Claire Redfield, I haven't seen you for years, and you're still alive! It's a pity that the mouth is still so stinky! Looks like you've finally climbed to the position of the chief of the guard! ”

"Hehe, Lancelot, you guys didn't die in the flesh and blood defense, how dare I go to the Grim Reaper before you!" At this moment, among the three figures standing on the wall, one of them suddenly jumped down, slowly walked out of the shadow of the wall, and his body appeared straight in the field of vision of the two.

Looking at it intently, it was only then that the eldest prince Kratos could see the true face of the person who came, his white hair was like snow, his figure was roughly similar to that of the old man, but there was a claw mark across half of his face in his left eye, and he was carrying a short sword only the length of his forearm at his waist, and he was wearing a dark red leather armor with a whole body, which was tightly strapped on his body, giving people a strange sense of danger although he was not strong.

"Although, this Great Prince's Mansion is not a Longtan Tiger's Den, but it is not something that anyone can enter and leave at will, if you do this, aren't you afraid that I will investigate you for the crime of trespassing on the Prince's Mansion?" The old man stared at the other party and said unceremoniously, first detaining the other party with a trespasser.

"Yes! We can go and confront your majesty, I want to ask, why is there such an earth-shattering explosion here after nightfall, is there some ulterior secret hidden in this great prince beside you! The latter also fought back-for-tat, and even put a bigger hat on the head of the eldest prince, which made the former dumbfounded.

In the confrontation between the two of them with sharp words, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard, and the grim atmosphere did not end until a neat footsteps came from far and near.

"Lancelot, I don't care what you want to do when you come back this time, I don't care how powerful you are outside, and I don't care about it, but here, you have to give me some restraint." It seemed that after the sound of uniform footsteps approaching, Claire Redfield's claw marks became a little more confident, and her tone became tougher.

"That's enough, Redfield, although I lead troops all year round and don't appear here often, at least I still have the title of the eldest prince on my head, and I still have the word Romanoff in my name, so you still have to maintain due respect for me, otherwise I don't mind being presumptuous here!"

Under the tough attitude of the eldest prince, Claire Redfield couldn't help but stagnate, bowed his head slightly, and seemed to be unwilling to put his attitude very low.

"It's... Yes, His Royal Highness the Great Prince! ”

"Enough, you've seen it, the explosion just now is just a test of Lancelot for me, it's nothing, you can step down!" Straightening his chest, Kratos, the eldest prince, glanced at the other party, and then waved his hand, giving a clear order to evict the guest.

Although Claire Redfield, as the chief of the guard, has enough status and power to make most people fearful, most people will definitely not include the eldest prince.

Not to mention that the latter has been leading troops all the year round, and the military power in his hands is not much more than that, but his title of the first heir in the name of the Romanov family alone is enough to make him bow his head and make the vast majority of people fearful.

After a brief moment of silence, Claire Redfield bowed deeply to the eldest prince and turned away without looking back.

With his actions, the other two figures standing at the head of the wall also bowed deeply, and then jumped to the side of the wall, following the steps of Claire Redfield, and quickly left.

"Let's go! Lancelot, making such a loud noise, it was not normal for them not to come and investigate. With the sharp words just now, the eldest prince's expression became relaxed, as if the crime that Claire Redfield had just charged him with was not worth mentioning.

He looked around with a mocking smile on his face before continuing.

"If you don't take this opportunity, how can you enter my Great Prince's Mansion. You see, in this majestic Grand Prince's Mansion, except for the visit of a strange face such as Krezer today, there are only you and me, two people! ”

Looking around with the same mocking smile on his face, the old man echoed.

"The perennial military life has long made us forget the comfort and luxury of life, but we don't know that their arrangement is exactly the most suitable for us."

Looking at the old man, the eldest prince waved his hand and spoke.

"Let's go, let's go rest! I'll be able to see my mother tomorrow! ”

But he didn't go a few steps before he opened the road again.

"By the way, why did you suggest I take Krazer under my command?"

But this time the old man waved his hand and gestured.

"Hmm! It's nothing, it's just that, from the way he attacks, I think of a certain adult, but this adult announced a long time ago that he would not accept students. ”

In fact, from the way Kreizer's last blow was attacked, he saw the figure of a certain person, a person he had admired since he was young, probably because this person had too deep an impact on the world, his behavior and even his living habits became the conditions for the world to imitate, perhaps, the same is true of this young man named Krezer!

It was with this in mind that he did not make any more suggestions for Kratos, the eldest prince, to recruit Krazer under his command, as the latter said, there are many young people with unlimited potential, but only a small number of them can finally make it to the end.

In anticipation of a better tomorrow, the two stepped into the night and returned to the cold empty palace.

When this cold Great Prince's Mansion was completely plunged into darkness, they didn't know what had just happened, and from beginning to end, they were all in sight by two people.

Back in time, in this bustling palace, there was an extremely tall building called the Star Tower, which was originally used to keep an eye on incoming enemies.

Because of the topography of this giant city, this building called the Star Tower was built almost at the highest point of the terrain, enough to see all directions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that if the weather conditions allow, standing on the top floor of the Star Tower, you can even see the whole view of several nearby cities.

As the Opdos Empire grew stronger, the tower gradually lost its usefulness and became a symbol.

Because it is located in the depths of the palace, no one has set foot on this star tower, but tonight, on the top of the star tower, there are two figures sitting side by side, watching everything under the night from afar.

"Your Majesty, the wind is cold at night, be careful of catching a cold." Looking at the night of the lights of thousands of homes, one of them spoke, his tone flat like a conversation between two old friends.

"Hehe, it's okay, Melkin, I won't see this kind of scenery a few times anyway!" In the face of the caring words of an old friend, the other waved his hand indifferently, and stretched out his hand to point to the brightly lit night sky. "On the contrary, you, as an important minister of the empire, take care of your health."

"You're laughing!"

The two people sitting on the top of the Star Tower turned out to be the ruler of the Opdos Ben Empire, and the other person was the Duke of Melkin, who claimed to control the dark power of the Empire, that is, the father of the black fox Gregory.

At this moment, for some reason, the two of them sat on the top of this lonely Star Tower, and the latter could sit side by side with the former, and the relationship between them was so close that if the latter's opponent witnessed this scene, he would definitely dispel the idea of becoming an enemy with him.

"You see, Melkin, this prosperous city symbolizes the heart of the empire, and the more prosperous it develops, the stronger the empire becomes!" Pointing to the brilliant lights in the distance, Romanov XIII sighed with emotion, but there was a hint of unwillingness in his words.

"That's right, Your Majesty!" As if he hadn't heard the former's unwilling tone, Duke Melkin echoed calmly.

"I'm not reconciled! Really unwilling! In my lifetime, I have not yet accomplished my grand cause! Ignoring the latter's flinching, Romanov XIII clenched his fist tightly as if he wanted to grasp something.

"You also have many excellent sons, and I think they will inherit your great will and lead the empire to glory." Duke Melkin deliberately diverted this sensitive topic.

"But that's them, not me!" Just after this, Romanov XIII seemed to swing his fist angrily, stood up suddenly, and looked down on a place below. "Besides, can my stupid sons really do better than I am? Now they will only compete for favor and infighting, I'm afraid you already have a certain number in your heart! ”
