"Narzas likes to draw?" Arslan originally asked casually, but Daron's answer didn't seem so simple. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hey, everybody has their flaws."

Seeing the prince's confused eyes, Dalong explained: "Speaking of which, this guy's hobby is really not worth mentioning. That person can be said to know everything about the movement of celestial bodies, the geography of foreign countries, the changes in history, etc., but there is only one point, he does not seem to know much about the technique of his painting. ”

Suddenly, a "boom" pierced the night sky. A silvery white light swept before their eyes, digging into the trunk of the conifer. The horse snorted nervously and uneasily. The two of them soothed Ma He while keeping their eyes on the arrow. I saw the arrow pierce deep into the trunk of the coniferous tree, reflecting the moonlight.

"If you take a step further, the next arrow will be shot in your face!" The voice of a teenager who sounded about the same age as Arslan rang out from the depths of the dark forest.

"From this place onwards is the abode of Lord Narzas, the old lord of Daram. No uninvited guests are allowed to trespass. Get out before you get hurt! ”

Daron shouted, "Yaram? I'm Darlon! I'm coming to see your master, whom I haven't seen for three years. Can you let me pass? ”

After a few seconds of silence, there was a rustling sound in the darkness, and a figure stepped out of it.

"Lord Dalong, it's been a long time. I didn't know it was you, sorry! The young man with a quiver on his back and a short bow on his back saluted Da Long. His untouched hair glistened in the moonlight.

"You've grown taller. Is your master safe? ”

"Yes, he's fine."

"So, does that guy still live by drawing pictures every day?"

"Uh・・・・・・・・" the boy looked thoughtful.

"I don't know how good the painting is. I'm just following my parents' last words to take care of Lord Narzas. For it was Lord Narsath who turned my parents from slaves into freemen. "The boy took the two of them on the mountain road, maybe because of his excellent night vision? His feet are not only fast, but also steady and steady.

A mountain house with a triangular roof made of stones and timber, built on the boundary between forest and meadow. The sound of the stream coming from under the grass and the stars twinkling in the night sky. As soon as the three of them approached, the door opened, and the light in the room fell to the ground. The boy ran up and saluted his master, and Daron jumped off his black horse and spoke to the visitor.

"Narzas, it's me, Daron."

"You don't need to sign up, you noisy guy. As soon as I heard your voice from beyond Farsan. ”

Although the owner of the villa is not as burly as Dalong, he is also very tall and well-proportioned. There is a good-feeling, bookish face, and although the mouth is evil, the eyes are smiling warmly. It seems that the age should be younger than Dalong. He wears a blue crop top and trousers of the same color, giving the impression of being young and unkempt.

"Narzas, these are the ・・・・・・・・"

"Son of King Andrakolas, Arslan, I have heard of you from Daron, and these two soldiers are dressed ・・・・・・・"

"Two guys who pretended to be Pars soldiers when they crossed the battlefield, they didn't have any extra clothes, and it was not easy for them to take off their Pars soldiers' costumes."

Narzas smiled when he heard this, turned his head to the young man, and said, "Jeram, please go and prepare some food for our guests, and by the way, take two clothes for the two guests to change, it is not good to wear the clothes that have been ripped from the dead man." ”

The diligent young man led the two horses to the back of the cottage, and then took out two sets of ordinary clothes from the room, and went to the kitchen to get busy, and soon brought a large plate. The aroma of wine, bird stew, honey-colored bread, lamb and onion skewers, cheese, apples, dried figs, dried almonds, and other foods suddenly filled the appetite of Arslan and Dalong, while Archen and Regulus took off their Palls soldier clothes and changed into the cloth provided by Narsas.

The four of them sat down at the low wooden table and ate attentively, and when they had filled their stomachs with all the food on the table, Jeram packed up the dishes, offered the green tea after the meal, and then bowed to Narzas, and went back to his room.

"Thank you for your hospitality, I feel better now."

"You're welcome, Your Highness Arslan, I received ten thousand gold coins from His Highness's father. All the expenses today cost less than a single silver coin! Narzath smiled and looked at his old friend Daron's face.

"By the way, I already know about it, and I'd like to hear more details."

Narsas drank green tea as Daron recounted the defeat of Atropatini. His brow furrowed when he heard about Karan's betrayal, however, he didn't seem surprised by the tactics of the Rusidanian army.

"The advantage of using cavalry is that it is mobile. The only way to restrain the cavalry is to restrain their movements. Trenches and fences were erected on all sides, fire attacks were used, thick fog was used, and even betrayers were driven. There are also quite wise people among the Rusidanian barbarians! ”

"It's not just smart people, but also a group of peculiar people who control the weather, and there won't be such a thick fog at that time!" Regulus said with a smirk.

"Oh~ I think you know something!" Narzath said to Regulus with interest.

"I don't know much about the details, it's just that the thick fog appeared too coincidentally, and the betrayal of your general Kahlan and the trap of the other party, it is obvious that someone is behind all this!"

"I'm only suspicious, but how are you sure?"

"Nope! This doesn't need to be determined, there are often one or two coincidences when something happens, but there are inevitably too many coincidences in this war, so I can't help but wonder ・・・・・・・・"

"I suspect that there must be someone behind this who controls Rusidania and some of the people (generals) in Pars!"

"Who the hell is that?!" Da Long didn't seem to like playing any word games, and asked with some anxious expressions.

"I don't know about that, because I'm not from Pars~" Regulus said with a wave of his hand.

"And it's only been a short time since I've been in this country, so I don't know what it's about, but I can deduce so many things from a single war・・・・・・・・・・" Narzas's eyes became a little strange as he looked at Regulus.

"I know what you're trying to say! However, these two have something to do with you~"

"Dalong, although you have come from afar, I don't want to have anything to do with the world now." Narsacs shook his head at this, and then said to Daron.

"But that's better than you hiding in the mountains and drawing those clumsy paintings!" Dalong said loudly.

"I can imagine what you, Daron, want to say. But I can't trust you. Your Highness, this guy is an unparalleled brave man in our country, and he often has a lot of truths, but he doesn't understand art at all. ”

"Art is eternal, but it rises and falls in an instant." Daron was about to protest, but Narzath raised a hand to stop him.

The prince suddenly spoke, "If that moment is the present, we can't stand idly by. How's it going, Narzas? I'd like to hear your thoughts. ”

"Well, what do you think・・・・・・・・ Rusitania believe in the only absolute god, Eyaldaport. This deity acknowledges that all her followers are equal, but, on the other hand, she commands her followers to exterminate the infidels of other religions completely. ”

"I will not let them succeed. What do you think should be done? ”

"Your Highness, it is too late to say anything, but your father, His Majesty, should abolish slavery. What reason do people who have been abused by the state have to fight for their country? Narzas's voice was full of enthusiasm. Before he knew it, he had forgotten that he was a recluse.

"Abolish slavery? We've had slavery abolished there for hundreds of years・・・・・・・・" Ah Chen muttered in a low voice.

"Huh?!" The other people present were not ordinary people, so they naturally heard Ah Chen's muttering, and everyone, including Yarslan, subconsciously looked at Ah Chen.

"This thing is cheap!" Regulus said helplessly.
