"You're a really nice guy. ”

After hearing that Alonthos gave up becoming a bachelor and chose to walk in the countryside in search of the great ideal of helping the world, Arthur was full of emotion.

With the Light in his hands, he could clearly perceive that what the merchant was saying came from his heart and was not false.

In fact, he also thought about saving the world!

But there is also self-knowledge, and I know very well how many pounds and taels I have......

"Is this old man stupid?"

Turning her head, the sunset was just ahead, and Selena could see the lonely back of the car-driving merchant, and the twilight of the year showed a sense of loss.

What Arthur saw, however, was a pioneer who had the courage to rise to the occasion!

The mercenary beside him didn't understand, and the prince, who understood his hope, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Mr. Alonsos, I wonder if you have heard rumors that I have supernatural powers?"

As soon as the words fell, he raised his hand and smashed a fireball into the dirt in front of him.

The merchant looked back in amazement.

Selena also looked at him puzzled: "Your Highness?"

Arthur was still friendly and sincere, and smiled: "Mr. Alonsos, can you tell me about the rumors you heard?"

The merchant at the front of the car immediately came back to his senses when he heard this, and said, "It is rumored... Your Highness is an evil sorcerer... Spells that will be evil. ”

Knowing that he would be slandered, the prince couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Then do you think I look like an evil wizard?"

Alonsos shook his head.

Arthur: "The power I have in my hands is the Light, it coexists with my soul, and to me it is a part of me.

But for others, it can be said that invisible faith, hope, and belief do not represent justice or evil, but can be used to support justice or cause harm and death.

I feel like you can master that power too. ”

"Your Highness!"

Hearing the prince share his experience of mastering power with the old man, Selena's face was full of shock, and she couldn't understand why he wanted to teach an outsider.

Although Arthur often explained the Light to Emperor Robert, Crown Prince Ryan, and Prince Varian, and tried to teach them how to master it.

But they were Arthur's relatives.

And Alonsos is just a little nobleman, from an ordinary background, and he gave up his future to become a merchant!

Arthur waved his hand, signaling her not to disturb, and the condensed holy light was attached to the back of the old man who knew the destiny of heaven.

"Feel it, this is the power of the Light. ”

The carriage slowed down.

The sunset on the horizon lazily lies on the bed, leaving only a few traces of sunset, which radiates tenaciously in the dark night.

On the dim and shrouded earth, the old man who felt the holy light was dyed with a pale golden halo!

The boy does not know the faith of the paladin, and directly sows the seed of holy light for people.

All that can be done is to let the old man feel and understand what the Holy Light is.

When the last sunset faded and the moon and stars took over the sky, Alonsos' pale golden halo finally dissipated.

He turned his head with a complicated look on his face, and looked at the prince who had lit two torches and was munching on fruit thoughtfully: "Your Highness......"

"I appreciate your guidance!"

In the flickering light of the fire, seeing the shock, excitement, gratitude, admiration and other emotions on the faces of the old man who had felt the holy light, Arthur chuckled and shook his head.

Selena said, "Mr. Alonsos, we've been here for a long time, let's go quickly." ”

"Ah, okay. After being reminded by the mercenary, the merchant, who had found hope, immediately drove his horse again.

The carriage was back on the road, and Alonsos, who acted as the coachman, galloped the horse and drove it as fast as he could.

In the violent tremor without shock absorption, the incomprehensible mercenary beside her couldn't help but whisper again: "Your Highness, what is the point of you doing this?"

Arthur: "Hope should be found for those who have great ideals." ”

For ordinary people, the Holy Light is still ethereal and distant, and it can help the world, but there is no way to achieve it immediately.

Strictly speaking, he gave Alonsos a false hope.

However, even the ethereal and false hope finally made Alonsos, who was confused and walking among the people, and did not know what to pursue, understand that what he did was meaningful!

The Lannister Territory and the Riverlands were devastated by the war and were in disarray.

The carriage could not travel as fast as a galloping horse.

The trio didn't go far from the Silent Peninsula, and were at least two days away from King's Road.

Late at night, they stopped.

Alonsos is in his fifties, and he can't bear to travel overnight.

To the mercenary who was worried about being chased by the Lannister soldiers, Arthur, who agreed to stop, had to say, "We need to rest too." ”

Selena was very depressed: "Obviously, you can go directly!"

Arthur shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "No hurry. ”

"Not in a hurry?" Selena was very angry: "The strange ghosts are going south, it is about the survival of Westeros, how can you not be in a hurry?"

Arthur nodded in agreement, but he wasn't that worried: "You're right, but the strangers can't get close to the Wall right now, so we have time." ”

Selena: "Didn't you say be prepared in the face of a crisis?"

"I'm doing this to fight the Stranger, too. ”

"Help an old merchant feel the Light, are you sure you're not crazy?"

"Nope. ”

While the boy and the mercenary were talking, Alonsos, who was accustomed to sleeping in the open air, lit a bonfire to illuminate the dim surroundings.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry to let you spend the night in the wilderness. ”

Arthur: "It's okay, I've suffered too, and I can endure hardships, it's nothing. But aren't you afraid of danger when you do business?"

Alonsos' face was full of bitterness when he heard this: "I often encounter danger, but I will obediently hand over the goods to save my life." ”

Selena: "Then you're good at grabbing." ”

After speaking, she was keenly and vigilant and noticed something strange around her.

Seeing that the mercenary beside her was about to draw her sword, Arthur patted her on the shoulder, and then said to the old merchant, "Someone will come here to rob you?"

Alonsos said bitterly: "It's everywhere. ”

With strong mental strength, Arthur noticed that someone was sneaking up on him when the carriage stopped, and basically confirmed that these people were going to rob him by questioning.

"Whoosh~"

Alonsos saw the prince wave his hand suddenly, shake a stone in his hand, and smash several other black shadows with a speed that was too fast to see.

With a few shouts, roars, and rudimentary weapons in hand, the ragged robbers rushed out of the darkness.

At the suggestion of the prince, Selena did not draw her sword to fight.

Because she knows very well how powerful the young man around her is, it is impossible for a few robbers and thieves to hurt him at all.

A pale golden light suddenly lit up.

The soft light became blinding to Alonsos's eyes, making it difficult to look directly, only a few golden shadows bloomed, shooting like sharp arrows at the bandit with his weapon in hand.

In the next moment, they all fell to the ground in wailing.

"This is the power of the Light?"

Hearing the stunned old merchant mutter, Arthur just smiled and walked over to a robber who had been knocked down by a light arrow, clutching a wound on his shoulder and screaming in pain, and kicked away the worn-out axe in his hand.

"Alonsos, what do you think they should do?"

When asked this question, Alonsoston fell silent when he came back to his senses, looking at the fallen robber with a thoughtful face.

"Damn wizard, don't think that only you can spell, our leader is the messenger of the beast god, so let us go immediately, otherwise when the leader brings it, he will torture you to death!"

These bandits were born out of war.

Most of them were poor peasants, but Alonsos didn't want to embarrass them too much, and was thinking about how to save their lives and punish the prince to his satisfaction.

However, the arrogant words of the wounded robber made the kind-hearted old merchant sigh.

"Your Highness, none of them were bad people in the first place, but they should be punished for their evil deeds. ”

From these words, Arthur already understood that the old man was not pedantic, nodded his head, and then asked, "Then what punishment do you think they deserve?"

"Cut off a hand. ”

This is Westeros' common approach to thieves.

"No, it's too light!" Hearing Alonsos' punishment, Selena suddenly spoke coldly.
