Prologue、Sparta that is not Sparta
Greece.
It seems that whenever Western civilization is mentioned, the name cannot but come to mind.
For example, the reputation of the cradle of Western civilization refers to ancient Greece.
For example, when it comes to architecture and murals, people often mention Greece.
For example, the Renaissance, known as one of the three major enlightenment movements, also integrated the demands of modern people into art in the name of reviving ancient Greek and Roman culture.
This is, Greece.
Civilized and developed countries will always have quite similar characteristics, whether it is a tall building, a white tone, and the common white skin, blond hair and blue eyes of Westerners. These are quite features.
As such a famous country, naturally, there will be no shortage of tourists.
"Huh...... It's not ...... I can't see it at all. ”
In the waiting hall, a man with soft hair like sand gold let out such an emotion.
He was tall, but not conspicuous in the world of Westerners' general heights. What really makes him stand out from those ordinary people is his elegant temperament, which is the special aristocratic temperament of [good cultivation] just by looking at it.
Whether it is the East or the West, in a world where civilization is increasingly eroding people, everyone is entangled with the inevitable [utilitarian], [timely] [utilization] and other very popular temperaments, rushing for life, so that they have no time to keep the surplus of the ancient aristocracy.
However, this man happens to have the leisure temperament that only ancient nobles have, which is a gesture of leaving room for room from the heart, as well as the elegant temperament that exudes, which makes people can't help but have a good impression of him.
The man lowered his head and looked at his left hand, and if you looked closely, you would find that on the man's left hand, there was a sharp black edge under the gold watch, which was worth a lot of money.
It's like the action doll's joints are unsealed, but unfortunately, he is wearing a crisp silver-gray suit all over his body, and he can't see inside his body.
The man's name is Abner.
Albernard Fergus-Winifred.
The head of the Winifred family, the head of the Winifred family, and the inheritance of the blood and customs of the ancient aristocracy, the end of the Sixth Holy Grail War can be described as miserable.
Many families have heard the news that Abner, as the master, was seriously injured and very miserable. What's more, the masters of this Holy Grail War are all guys who have never heard of it. In the arrogant mind of the magician, there is always a short-answer formula: someone is very unfamous, and some famous people lose to this unknown person, which means that these famous people are rubbish, and they can wait for an opportunity to replace them.
However, they forgot that, first of all, the world is always changing, even the strongest magician, if the volcano is earthquaked, it is a death to be involved, there is always a random number, and Ebner did not win in the Holy Grail War, it does not mean that he is weak.
Secondly.
Even if he is a weak person, doesn't that mean they are strong people?
This kind of thinking is really weird.
Abner wandered around China for a month, and in this month, the magic family that had been in contact with the Winifred family really had their own strange tricks, and all the stupid tricks came out. It's just ...... Beam-jumping clowns.
What's more, when Abner really returned to the Winifred family, everyone, including the Winifred family, felt that there was no help.
The once high-spirited lord can now only rely on a wheelchair to move, and among his limbs, only his right hand can barely move. This tragic state really makes relatives grieve and enemies happy.
Originally, the Winifred family was not monolithic, and seeing the lord Albernar like this, these forgetful magicians immediately began to organize a rebellion, trying to pull Alberner down from the position of the head of the Winifred family.
Internal worries, external troubles.
These people, who were disgusting like flies for two months, were finally cleaned up by Abner.
After a Holy Grail War, it became clear that Ebner had some kind of ...... Different variations.
If the former Abner was an easy-going man who always hid his true face and was cautious, then when he returned, the whole person became resolute. Those who clearly expressed their dissatisfaction with the Winifred family all cut off contact, and those who were still ambiguous all expressed their support for the Winifred family after Abner's visit.
As for the rebellion of the own people? Abner is the suzerain, even in a wheelchair, he is also the strongest magician, and the so-called magic secrets that those guys have studied for half their lives have all been easily broken by Abner.
As said before, EBNER has indeed weakened.
However, he has become weaker, and this garbage has become stronger are two different concepts. The lion is still a lion when he is old, and a young and strong rabbit cannot defeat a lion, even an old and injured lion.
However, these trivial matters have been dealt with for a whole year.
Almost everyone remembered that this man, who could only sit in a wheelchair, was an excellent magician, he was very good.
Then, everyone started to panic.
What kind of monster was the boy who had defeated Abner and become the winner of the Holy Grail War?
Then, Ebner suddenly did something interesting.
He found a workshop specializing in custom-made dolls and made prosthetic limbs for his left hand and legs.
It's easy to understand, after all, humans always want to rely on their own legs to move.
Then, he put down all his plans for the next month and went on a trip to Greece.
This approach, which was completely not in the interests of the magicians, surprised those allies. This time, though, none of them dared to trouble him again.
Alberner has used the previous example to prove how troublesome this man named Winifred really is.
Greece, this is an appointment with that person.
If there is anything that defeated Surut in the end, then it should be his own servant.
Leonidas, the man with a strong physique, the more dangerous he is, the more he laughs. Although, he was noisy, and, rude, had no respect for magic and no respect for Ebner.
However, Abner must admit that he misses him a lot when he is gone.
The heroic spirits of this Holy Grail War were born in response to the [wishes] of the Master, and they will summon Leonidas because this is the person they want to summon.
People who can scold themselves fiercely and break their own pace, but who can reach a consensus with themselves. People who can give themselves spiritual support.
After the victory in the battle. Ermelo II once asked him such a question.
"Do you have a goal you want to work for?"
In this moment, EBNER finally understood something.
"Yes. There is one person I want to work for. I don't want to be thought I'm a drag on him when I'm mentioned. ”
Is his answer the right answer? Albert didn't know.
Ermelo II – Weber Wilwitt rarely mentions his own affairs. His affairs can basically only be determined by side-tapping. Albert knew that Webber had been involved in the Fourth Holy Grail War, and that he was ...... Before and after the war, they were completely like two people.
As he himself said, the person who went to war, was Weber Wilwitter.
The person who entered the war was Ermelo II.
The difference between the two people is too obvious.
He...... I must have met someone similar during the Holy Grail War.
Encountering a reason to make himself strong, for a distant goal, for the reputation of those who are not here, his Holy Grail War, must be like this.
Abner remembered clearly that after he had said this, the corners of Ermelo II's eyes were moist, and his expression was calm, but with a hint of indescribable sadness.
Leonidas, a hero.
That's all Albert can say.
During his lifetime, he changed himself, his bold style of life, his loyal attitude to the desire to fight, and his calmness in the face of danger at any time, all of which made Abner remember vividly.
If you think about it carefully, the man's words are actually not much, and they are basically words related to combat. The combination of gun, sword, and shield perfectly illustrates the word warrior.
And...... And Abner's character, completely in tune.
If, in the ruins of ice, Abner did not choose to stay, but chose to keep the two spells, let Lancer die, and then sign a contract with Saber, would it be more advantageous?
Occasionally, Abner has pondered this possibility.
The conclusion is, impossible.
Not to mention anything else, no one can hurt Saber Surut's EX-level magic power. If you want to damage Surut, you need to have a magic attack that exceeds the EX level, or a physical attack that exceeds the EX level.
This condition is too harsh.
Which man's firm back made EBNER never regret his choice.
The so-called men are all a bunch of idiots.
He said so, how could he escape?
Those two spells were probably a waste in the eyes of other magicians. But ...... Those two spells were the key to the Sixth Holy Grail War.
Because, they told Leonidas something.
There was a man waiting behind him for his triumph.
There was one person who trusted him with great firmness.
The hero, who died generously for freedom, once again perceived the meaning of his own existence.
Even if the magic sword that burned the world burned the spirit base for a time, even if he couldn't remember the meaning of his fist, he still firmly swung that blow.
The defense of Surut was perfect. Neither Saber's sword nor Lohia's rifle broke through his defenses. The blackened rock-like body will always represent an impregnable defense.
Leonidas' near-death blow was the only one that left him with a wound. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid that all the attacks that followed, there would be nothing to say.
That hero is the king of the guardian war, and as long as it is a defensive battle, he will not lose to anyone's strongest shield heroic spirit.
Abner made a pact with the hero.
I'm going to Sparta.
Of course, in this day and age, the Spartan of the barbaric law of the jungle is long gone.
Just as Leonidas fought for the freedom of all Greece, Sparta is now truly integrated into the Hellenic Republic.
That great power, unparalleled combat effectiveness, barbaric style of life, militarized management system, everything, is gone.
Sparta, he said, was a good place.
Unfortunately, Abner didn't have the chance to meet him.
He flickered for a moment, only to realize that he had been standing here for a long time, his vision was blurry, and he had forgotten what he was going to do for a while.
Looking at my watch, thirty minutes have passed since the plane landed, and I am too obsessed with memories.
That's not going to work.
If someone else knows about it, it will lose its majesty.
Of course, it was the loss of the majesty of Leonidas.
Ebner was the lord of Leonidas.
The others had never seen Leonidas, and they could only figure out the man through Abner.
Wouldn't Abner only be the man worthy of the name of Leonidas' hero?
Regrouping his thoughts, Ebernar allowed himself to be included in the diverted crowd. Because he was here to travel, he didn't bring any excessive luggage, and dragged a trolley suitcase, and he was wearing an amalgam suit condensed by mercury magic that he was good at.
In this way, it is enough.
I'm here to travel.
I came to experience the customs of Sparta. Not here to fight.
Thanks to the master of custom-made dolls, Abner was able to order such a perfect prosthetic, although regular maintenance is a bit troublesome, but after all, it is much better than a wheelchair, isn't it? It's very confusing.
Abner had just taken a few steps out of the door when he saw three or four people standing respectfully in the doorway, dressed in formal clothes, men and women, the youngest was only about seven or eight years old, a girl, staring at the big watery eyes, timidly grabbing the corner of the clothes of the person next to him, who was probably his mother.
These people are not familiar to Abner.
But just by looking at him, he knew the purpose of the visitor.
As I said before, after Abner went back, he launched a vigorous strategy, the biggest feature of the Ermelo magician is that the [utilization] of magic is very high, plus Abner himself has a very high magic attainment, the current Winifred family can be said to be in full swing, maybe not as rich as the old magic family, but it can be regarded as a strong party.
Such an excellent magic family, of course, everyone wants to stammer.
These people are probably some family in Greece.
I want to take advantage of my own travel to Greece, please myself, and then ......
Alberner's eyes fell on the little girl, who was always very perceptive, and at once he noticed that he was looking at him, and hid even more timidly behind his mother's back.
And then...... Let yourself take this child as an apprentice.
This is not uncommon in the world of magicians.
The strong are respected, the natural pursuit of stronger teachers, and the desire for better magic are all very understandable moods.
Really...... It seems that the prestige has been overdone.
"Hello...... It's Lord Winifred......"
The first middle-aged man bowed his head and greeted Abner humbly.
This is also a phenomenon that only exists in the magician world, not according to age to divide dignity, but according to blood and ability to divide the dignity of the elder and inferior, although Abner is much younger than him, but after all, he is the master, and the blood inheritance is also there, he cannot be disrespected.
Albernar smiled bitterly and said, "It's me." ”
"I don't know if Lord Winifred has come from afar, and I won't say hello, our ancestors of the Anderson family have lived on this land, so we can be a host and wash the dust for you. ”
Really......
From the first words he spoke, Abner knew what he meant.
He now suddenly understood why his teacher, Ermelo II, was able to see relationships so thoroughly...... It's not that Ermelo II is too powerful, but these magicians will do such a few tricks......
It must be to have a good relationship with himself first, and then sell himself a favor, the purpose, it must be to learn the magic of the Winifred family.
This Anderson family, Abner has never heard of, it should not be particularly famous, it should be the kind of small family that has been inherited within five generations, no wonder they are so careful, obviously afraid of themselves, and they will take the initiative to come over to greet them.
For them, a little favor will make them feel satisfied, right?
"It's okay, I'm just here to see the Greek Peninsula casually, some of the scenery I want to see, some of the people I want to visit. ”
Before Abner finished speaking, the head of the Anderson family immediately rushed to say: "Our Anderson family is still a small network in Greece, I don't know where Lord Winifred wants to go and who he will meet?"
"Ah...... You guys really can't help with that. ”
Abner smiled wryly and shook his head to reject him.
yes, how can it help?
It's 2056 now, and he wants to go to the city-state of Sparta around 500 BC.
Who has the ability to travel through time?
I want to see what kind of soil has cultivated such a fierce warrior who is not afraid of death.
I want to see what kind of air gives birth to the heroism of smiling and dying in battle.
I want to see what kind of food raises such an indestructible ketone body.
The king said, "Go to Sparta, it's a good place."
He's said so, it must be a good place.
Maybe he's savage, maybe he's rude, maybe he's contemptuous like a horseman. However, on the issue of right and wrong, this man has never made a mistake. Stand up and die for the sake of righteousness. For the sake of the final victory, he climbed back from the Yellow Spring and attacked the enemy head-on.
On the other hand, the other magicians, although they were dressed in light and beautiful rhetoric, and everyone looked like an ancient nobleman, but what about it?
Scold......
In this comparison, Sparta must be a very good place.
You can raise that kind of person.
I hope that I can be like Leonidas.
That's what Abner wants to do the most.
Several members of Andre's family looked at each other, keenly reading what Eberner meant. Guessed it, the person Abner wanted to visit was no longer there. Things are not people, and for any person, they are sentimental.
Especially for a person like Abner, who has not even reached the [thing is] and has already been [human], probably his state of mind is even more sad.
"Then, when Lord Winifred has visited his old friend, please be sure to let the next landlord be a good taste of the Greek style. ”
Settle for the next best thing and don't dwell on any issue.
"Ah, I will. That's it. ”
Abner smiled humbly, the head of the Andrea family breathed a sigh of relief, the local magic family in Greece was very similar to the city-state system in Greece back then, several families were separated, if other families were allowed to take the lead and take Abner to visit and leave a good impression, then it would be a big loss.
People are here to play, of course, it is impossible to follow a lot of messy people, and they have grabbed the position of this entourage, as long as they take a good look at the sycophants, are you afraid that they will not be promoted?
He'd heard that this Abner was the master and modest, and he didn't have the style of a magician at all, and Ermelo II was like this back then, but the Andrea family thought it was a show, and didn't pay attention to it at all, who would have thought that Ermelo was so powerful now?
Now, the Andre family can't afford to give up this opportunity.
Abner guessed what he was thinking, and could only smile wryly.
Magician...... It's all like this.
I don't know......
Which of your students is doing now, where is he, what is he doing?
Ah, though, if it's him, it's fine, right?
(Because, he's a disciple of my Abner Fergus Winifred.) )
