Chapter 84 Sorry
"Mold...... That's not a good idea. β
After the paladin left, Old Man Kiplin thought that everyone needed to get together and discuss this important matter. So the training stopped, and everyone gathered in the castle hall and sat around the long table. Feige read aloud the document with the Exemplary Collar, and everyone passed on the ritual instructions for the Great Prophecy. Each of the Icepeak Fortress monster hunters was allowed to speak on an equal footing, and Eddie and Friends brought some food to everyone and sat on the sidelines to listen.
Mom put the gnawed chicken leg bones on the table, wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, and continued: "We are all familiar with finding monsters in the mountains and killing them, or helping the farmers in the village find lost sheep, or even delivering cows and horses." You can get a territory and manage it, this is a matter for the noble lord, who of us understands?"
Tron, Witch Mama, and Ramsden looked at Feige.
"Don't look at me, I don't, I can't, I'm probably not as good as Eddie. Feige shook his head: "I can't even take care of myself, and I still need Eddie to take care of it, can you trust such a person?"
"But young master, you obviously took a course, and it was carried out together with the alchemy course. Your lord's class must always be excellent, and the Earl will find you an alchemy teacher. β
"Is there such a thing?" Fei Qi searched in his memory, but he couldn't find the content of the course, but he made poison out of alchemy potions, and then threatened Baron Jensen, who was in charge of the lord's class, to make him always give him an excellent rating. It's really an unbearable memory, Young Master Hall really left a god-like start.
"After the model leader is established, can we become knights?" Tron swallowed and said, "I can't be a lord, but it's okay to be a knight." In the end, it doesn't matter if Giles, Mom, Silkna, or Feige are lords. β
"Why don't you say Lord Kellet?" muttered Witch Mama, and Tron kicked him under the table.
"Don't be stupid, if we can produce a lord here, it can only be Lord Kiprin or Feiqi. Have you listened carefully to the explanation of the model leader, the lord must be the priest of the goddess. Silkina glanced at Feiqi and hooked her fingers: "Snowman, although you are the son of Count Hall, this is the Ice Peak Fortress, do you have an opinion on the old man Kiplin being the lord?"
Kylie and Giles also looked at Feige, their eyes full of inquiry. Only Mohm did not look up, and busily grabbed a piece of bread and ham from his plate, cut it, and chewed it in large gulps. He seemed to be talking, but no one could hear him because of the food stuffed in his mouth.
Fei Qi let out a long sigh and said slowly, "If the old man comes to be the lord, I have no opinion. β
"But what do I think you're still not convinced?" Sisina stood up suddenly, the knife on her belt swaying. Her hand involuntarily reached behind her back.
"Iceblade sit down! he's not 'the bunch' of boys!" Mohm snorted as he squirted bread and roared suddenly. Sisina shook her body, looked at Feige with one eye, her eyes gradually cleared, and then slowly sat down. Threats come and go as fast as they come, and Feige was just startled.
"The boys" refer to the group of people who had seriously hurt Sisina and left her with the scar. More than ten years ago, when Sisina was still a child and lived with her parents, a group of hunting nobles passed by their house. The group wore a black ram's head as their family crest, and they were all dressed richly, but they did things that were not as good as robbers. Later, her family died, and her home was gone, and if it weren't for the old man Kiplin passing by and reaching out for help, the seriously injured Sisina would not have survived.
Since then, she has been tracking down the identities and whereabouts of those people. But the entire Duchy of Aria, including several surrounding countries, did not have a black ram-headed family coat of arms, nor did bandits, bandits, and rebels use such an emblem. The incident was devastating to Sixna, and the fruitless pursuit made her nervous and irritable. However, she had done things like pulling out knives to Feige, who was said to look a lot like an enemy in her memory.
Fortunately, time and age are not matched, which completely cleared his suspicion.
"Calm down and don't be controlled by the emotions of gains and losses. At last, the old man Kiplin spoke: "You guys, can you tilt your head when you speak, I don't know what you're talking about if I can't see you." Looking at only half of the face, I can only know half a sentence. β
"Lord Snowy Owl, you are the lord. Giles said.
"I can't do it. I can't perform the magic anymore, so I can't participate in the Divine View Great Prophecy Ceremony, and I can't become a lord. Isn't Feige bad? He's smart, and he's doing well in the fortress. On the one hand, we don't suffer if he is the lord, and on the other hand, this is the only choice. β
"No, no...... Kiplin-sama, you must go. Feiqi looked at everyone, still in a very calm tone, and said, "I'm not shirking or deliberately humbling. After watching the rituals of the Great Prophecy, I was pretty sure I couldn't participate. As a priest of the goddess of truth thunder, I am not qualified, and I will only be unhelpful if I go. β
"How is this possible? Your magic is very good! Especially in the past two months, I think it is better than the priests of Gujian Castle. Aren't you all at summoning mist, creating protective barriers, and boosting morale?" Tron thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, it's either Feige or Lord Snowy Owl, and either of you can be lords. As for whether or not you can be goodβI just know that neither of you are bad people, and you won't make life worse for your lords, right?"
"You want to be a knight. Wu Ma Ma muttered.
"Yes, I want to be a knight. No matter how good the monster hunters are, they are only mercenaries of the church, and knights are another higher class. Man, how can you do it without land and honor?"
Feige understood Tron's thoughts, but he couldn't attend the Great Prophecy Ritual. Of course, he also wants to become a lord, to be in charge of one side is to control the fate of the people around him, and to be able to turn his ideas into reality, who wouldn't want to? For this reason, he has thought of countless plans, and there are countless divergent thoughts that explode from his brain. However, when he watched the Great Prophecy Ceremony, it was as if he had been poured a basin of cold water.
This ceremony, by simple analogy, is a multi-party video conference constructed by divine art. By contributing to the ceremony, the attendees presented themselves to others, especially the Goddess of Truth Thunder, who selected six of the ten representatives of the "Good Rated Fortress" to become a lord. Feige wasn't worried at all about whether he could become a lord - because it was impossible - he only worried that his devilish identity would be revealed and then killed by the goddess's thunder.
No matter which aspect is considered, this possibility is the greatest and even inevitable.
"Lord Snowy Owl, you still have to participate in the ceremony, even if you can't perform magic skills, you are more suitable than me. "Feige wasn't cheating on people, but thinking of Old Man Kipling's status as a saint, and if the goddess was to be judged in favor of himβand at least not to be struck by lightning.
With the Divine Spell Seal and the Angel of Holy Light, you can fool yourself in front of the paladin, but if you put it in front of the goddess, it is called provocation, and you can only die faster. Even if the goddess is kind, she will not see the devil and not strike. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, the goddess is very busy and does not show up during the ceremony, but among the other participants in this ceremony are at least sixteen bishops, three archbishops, and an unknown number of Templars. These people are all staring at each candidate with wide eyes, and as long as Feige shows strength, there is absolutely no possibility of going undetected.
In short, as long as the goddess appears, Feige is dead, and if the goddess does not appear, Feige will not be able to display the power of magic. Therefore, in the case of not being able to use the magic anyway, Old Man Kiplin is a better choice than Feiqi.
"I'm better than you? The Great Prophecy Ritual is very important, how can a person who can't cast spells be more suitable? Feiqi, you're not right. "I only belong to the past, and now I have nothing to look forward to except waiting for the day of death." The future is yours, you are the only priest in the Ice Peak Fortress, and you will at least bring a lot of benefits to everyone when you become a lord. Obviously, we will have at least one more Templar and a royal count to support you! If you don't stand up at this time, what is there to be afraid of? Just have the courage to take responsibility, we will all support you, help you, and supervise you, which is no different from the past. β
Being found to be a devil and then being struck to death by lightning is definitely a big difference.
Feige tugged at his hair hard, then glanced at Eddie. At this time, he hoped from the bottom of his heart that the Count had made arrangements in advance, and that he could have a safe shortcut. However, from Eddie's eyes, he only saw confusion, and it was estimated that the butler was also wondering what he had to worry about.
"I can't participate in the Great Prophecy Ritual, I'm a ...... I...... There's a problem with my magic. Feiqi shook his lips and struggled to say, "If I wanted to be a lord, if I wanted to follow the development route of a priest of magic, I wouldn't have come here at all." Templars, royal counts, what is better than my Hall family? Although I am the second son, I also have the right to inherit, and I was originally going to be the next Earl of Hall. Haven't you seen it yet?"
"I'll just say it. "Mom has eliminated the ham and is gargling his mouth and throat with ale.
"So...... Child, not an Earl, not a Templar, not a priest, what do you want?" Old Man Kiprin sighed softly, and then said slowly, "Don't say it's alchemy. Ever since coming to the Ice Peak Fortress, that set of alchemy tools has been accumulating dust and has never been used. It doesn't matter what you don't want, kid, it's okay to get rid of the count, the knight, and the magic. As long as you know what you want, it's worth it. β
"I can't find what I want in this world. "At least so far, I haven't found a second way to find it," Feige said. What I want is magic, powerful magic, magic that can change the world. Therefore, I cannot appear before the Goddess. β
He stood up, took the emblem off his wrist, and placed it on the table, "I'm sorry, but I'm not going to participate in the Great Prophecy Ceremony. I'm sorry for messing up the Exemplary Leader, but I don't want this to be the result. I'm sorry. β
