This long black path is like someone's mood, simple and dark without change. For Lieutenant General Kenneth, this is the best place to be, and not so long ago all the problems of not being able to go well and not be able to calm down have been solved here.

Even if he wants to meet the newcomer, he can meet it immediately.,Of course, it's his own intention to summon Ueno Uka and the others.,Even so.,The admiral is still paranoid that it's the credit of this study to be able to see it properly.。

"I'm sorry you're here. As I get older, I don't like to meet people in the downstairs hall very much, and I don't want to see more bad things. Although it was only a polite statement, everyone knew that the reason why the admiral was reluctant to go down to see everyone was because of Lorenz's death.

If there's one place to compare it to, it's the Black Rose Castle of the Aleclay Lampmaster. The collection of books here has already begun to interest Bai Cixi, who has not been involved for a long time, and it may not be long before Kenneth will not be able to drive him downstairs.

Spreading out the things in his hand, the admiral sitting in an upright posture didn't look as old as the dragon clock just now, but it was a little less domineering than the heroic posture of the battle, so a few people, including Dark Xiang, were relatively casual. The first thing the old general said after sitting up straight was to exclude Hou Cunxin and Liya who came up: "I know Kate here and Miss Charlie over there, and I don't know less than the other two, so I won't greet you." ”

In the face of the old man's words, Liya just nodded politely, but what Hou Cunxin was thinking in her heart was why the confused teacher called Liya and herself. Fortunately, the old general's attention has shifted to Ueno Dark Fragrance and Bai Cixi, compared to Bai Cixi, Ueno Dark Fragrance is a real face.

Therefore, the old general spoke again: "You are Bai Cixi, the head of the Bai family, right?" I have admired the reputation of your Bai family for a long time, but I didn't expect the Bai family to pass on an excellent successor, congratulations. ”

"To the delight of Sir Kenneth. Our family has been closely related to the Kamen Legion for generations. And when my father was alive, he talked about you many times. If it was just a compliment, Bai Cixi didn't seem to have the intention of admitting defeat, for a young master like him, he just changed the words in his daily language, and the usual tone of communication remained the same. Concatenate some new words to easily cope with the rhetoric of any occasion.

It seems that the admiral in front of him, who is very fond of the young man, remembered someone, and then found that such a greeting turned out to be his own Lorenz will also, on many occasions Lorenz will help the admiral to classify and analyze, and even when besieged by the dance of the clouds (the largest media organization in the other world mentioned above), Lorenz will also show his gorgeous talents, however

After seeing the teacher's loneliness, Hou Cunxin slowly beat him up and served by his side as usual. Now it seems as if the admiral has only met with three people. The grateful admiral said: "I'm fine, but there are some things that I can't put down~ Miss Ueno Dark Xiang, you have also admired the daimyo here for a long time." So can you solve my problem? An old man's psychological entanglement. ”

Although Dark Fragrance was thinking about what the phrase "also a long-admiring daimyo" meant, of course, as a mask that had been fighting ordinary battles for the life of the Academy, she herself did not realize that the difficult tasks she had completed were enough to make her gain this reputation. Now there is no one in the entire army who does not know the famous Ueno.

"I'm not a good strategist, and I don't have good political skills like the deceased major general, but I'll try to listen to what you have to say. And to the best of my ability to say what I need to say. As she spoke, she looked at the admiral sitting not far away with her eyes tight, and their eyes met in the second half of the words, and they lingered for a long time.

Ueno is cautious, while Kenneth is in high spirits. Both of them were waiting for the conversation to get into a moment where it was more noteworthy, so Kenneth spoke first: "Here's the thing. Miss Ueno, oh. Will you allow me to call you Dark Incense? After all, even Lady Moon likes to call you that, and of course it's okay if you don't like to be called that by elders you don't know at all. ”

"Where. It's said that it's an elder, so there shouldn't be any disobedience to what you call it. "It seems that Dark Fragrance herself doesn't mind.

The old man seemed to be even happier, he shook his arms, and Hou Cunxin on the side willingly lit more oil lamps, not with flames. Instead, the oil lamp, which burned with magic, was encased in a lantern-like crystal, scattering a brighter light. The whole study lit up, and everyone realized that although the bookshelves here were crowded and arranged, they reached the ceiling, and the high roof arched upwards, as if it could hold more and more books.

"I love Lorenz and treat him like a son, but everyone in the Kamen Legion Army, including Vaux, Dante and Lampelgui, and Kate here, I treat them like sons, regardless of their abilities. Regardless of their temperament, when it comes time to distribute tasks and share responsibilities, I will treat them as men in the family, not as responsible generals. I will trust them, and this is probably the reason why my diplomacy has been peaceful and the war has gone smoothly for many years. As you can see, I trust the humans, even the least respected of the mages, and I still trust them. ”

"But," the admiral's words turned, and even his face illuminated in the light seemed to become much more terrifying, "while I shared my strength, power, and responsibility, I did not expect that they would also encounter the danger of sharing like ordinary people, I never thought of trying to protect these 'sons', as an elder, I only realized at this moment how fragile I was, I was a 'fragile father'." It turned out that when I saw Lorentz's body, I didn't think about anything else, I just thought that if I hadn't handed it over to him in the first place, if I hadn't had this burden, wouldn't I have lost this son? Now, Dark Fragrance, tell me about it, do you think I still have to trust my subordinates, I'm really afraid of losing them. ”

The old general, who had said a lot of things, didn't control his feelings for a while, his face was once again distorted into a painful rectangle, and the once happy expression disappeared from Hou Cunxin's eyes, which made Hou Cunxin's heart cold.

The main thinking about this question is whether there is a problem with the general's love, and whether the long-standing trust will die long ago. 】

And the dark incense who found the core of this problem immediately said: "I only talk about my own opinions. I don't think it's necessary to think about it at all, Lorentz's death is sorry, but it has nothing to do with your trust. On the contrary, it is because of your trust that when Mr. Lorenz takes his last breath, his actions and endings become extremely meaningful and worthwhile. Admiral, allow me to summarize, you are asking me, as a leader. As a leader who ends war with war, traces peace, and wants to protect everyone, it is the same as my position. Is it better to fully trust partners and share risks and opportunities with partners, or to let everyone be a chicken hiding under shelter for the sake of preservation? My view is that it is often better to die with the trust of the leader and your own beliefs than to live with the accumulated kindness of the people who are always sheltered and have nowhere to repay it. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Kenneth's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and after he understood the meaning and proposition of Dark Incense, he decided to ask why, why a little girl could make the consciousness of giving up her life to save her honor and disgrace.

"Many people say it's better to die than to live. Your Excellency, you think so, right now. But that is only the view of rationalist people, and if people's lives have lost their meaning, if there is no adventurous life, if there is no ruined war, it is never life, and it will never be satisfying. Admiral, man is a greedy creature. They don't just want to live, they want much more than you can shelter alone. That's my war, and that's why I defend our city. ”

"Dark incense. You and I are both people who fight to protect the lives of our fellow soldiers, and I thought you would understand my thoughts. Sure enough, young people just don't fear death? Kenneth stood up as if talking to himself, and looked at the girl in front of him who was arguing with him.

"You are wrong, although I and you both hate wars for the purpose of aggression, but it seems to me that we must insist on character in addition to territory. In addition to survival, there is also a true temperament. At least one thing we have in common, the man who plays the whole masquerade army is the same as me, who has been in charge for a while, and we are all afraid of death. Death is terrible. I was also scared, and I still think about what Wu Lulu looked like when she left. Admiral, even though we are afraid of death, it is not said that we will run away from death for this purpose, for we must face her if necessary."

"Bang dang~~~~" The admiral who left his seat suddenly seemed to be furious, and walked forward, "What do you know?" Officially dead, what are you as a little president? If I am not as cautious as you are in the face of death, do you know how many people I will have to bear in blood? ”

A sudden weight appeared in the small study, and this huge spiritual pressure with anger rushed straight towards the upright Ueno dark incense as if it had recognized an opponent. The poor girl's reaction did not keep up, and when she felt the admiral's terrifying strength, her slightly thin legs suddenly fell to her knees. Not only here, but her whole body, back, waist, spine and even her head felt as if they had been shattered by a crane.

In front of this angry man, Ueno Dark Fragrance didn't want to kneel, she was very ugly lying on the ground, as long as she resisted a little, it was like she was going to be crushed, enduring the violent tearing, Dark Fragrance's eyelids gradually lowered, and slowly she began to lie motionless as if she was dead.

"The little girl who can say beautiful things should go back to wash and sleep early, if you want to be the enemy of the ancient demons, then you can pass my level first" The old admiral who seemed to be satisfied said vigorously, he didn't want to see the spiritual pressure that tried his skills and killed the dark fragrance of Tomorrow's Star Ueno here, and after properly retracting the spiritual pressure, the admiral began to regret it.

"It's not pretty, I knew it wouldn't be good to ask us all of a sudden" Turning around, seeing that Ueno Dark Fragrance behind him had slowly started to do push-ups like a jack on her back, Kenneth knew that she underestimated the stubborn little girl in front of her, after all, she was Ms. Moon's

Suddenly, a black air flow enveloped Ueno's body, and its power flew in all directions like an explosion. The Admiral, who was doing his best, used all of his forehead pressure to wrap around the black flames, which made Dark Incense, who was still on her push-ups, unable to move, and she could only get up to this step. But her body didn't give up, and more power erupted from her back, and the fiery red wings spread out into the small space, and there was a random explosion, and the book fragment was further damaged.

At this moment, relying on the power of the angel, Dark Xiang was gradually able to kneel and stand up, but the admiral was still pressing himself, and Dark Xiang had no way to straighten up his bent waist, and at this moment, Bai Cixi put a hand on Dark Fragrance's shoulder.

"I don't have the time to mess with you." Dark Fragrance, who wanted to fight against Bai Cixi, found that he couldn't spare any strength, and Admiral Kenneth's spiritual pressure was flawless, and even the power of the angels fell into a bitter battle.

"No, dark incense." It turned out that Bai Cixi had been carefully observing everyone here since just now, and he understood the principle after he found that only Dark Xiang was suppressed, "I know the way for you to defeat him, if it is not for the general's convincing mouth, your theory, your troops will never be able to attack Enoch City." ”

"How to beat?"

"Get rid of us." Bai Cixi smiled as a matter of course, looking at the expression on Dark Xiang's face, he wanted to laugh even more, "In the face of a strong enemy, if you can't solve it yourself, you should share your rights and responsibilities with us, this is the meaning of our existence, and it is also the biggest evidence for you to refute this old man." So we will help you, not only that, Liya and Hou Cunxin also came here and lent her everyone's strength, and we are going to destroy and tear the general-level spiritual pressure in front of the general. ”

Sure enough, soon Hou Cunxin's gentle touch came from the other shoulder, and the boy who didn't speak had been waiting for this moment. And then there's Riya

"Are you really willing to let me help you? I've betrayed your expectations once and hurt you with these hands," for some reason, Liya hesitated.

"Less nonsense, hurry up, this is the president's order, otherwise you wouldn't be here." With Ueno's words, Liya suddenly laughed, she hugged Dark Fragrance's waist, and a pair of snow-white wings appeared on her back, this Shariya power helped Dark Fragrance straighten her waist suddenly, and the strength of the boys on both sides just supported Dark Fragrance to make her stand tall under Kenneth's once intimidating spiritual pressure.

They did, and the admiral laughed.
