Chapter 20: Epilogue
"Annihilation? That kid didn't die, his life was really hard. The Emperor glanced at the battle report on the ground of the military headquarters and tossed it aside, although the rebellion in Findel District caused the kingdom to lose a division and the Knights of Holy Armor, but it did not shake the foundation of the kingdom. On the contrary, Baldwin's throne sat more securely.
In the autumn of 1254 AH, the Herodian revolt broke out in the kingdom of New Brad, and the kingdom took an iron-blooded suppression to completely eliminate the resistance. The kingdom entered its heyday.
・・・・・・
"Hello Professor Preskas." The aristocrats toasted the man one after another. And this simply-dressed man just nodded and smiled kindly, neither humble nor arrogant, even if there were all the dignitaries of the kingdom in front of him.
Today is the 10th anniversary of the founding of the kingdom, and His Majesty Baldwin feasts his courtiers and other nobles, including scholars from institutions of higher learning such as the Imperial Theological Academy.
And this Professor Preskas was treated with courtesy from the whole kingdom. Although the New Brad Kingdom was founded as a mecha knight, it did not have the technology to produce multi-power cores. Because of this, although the kingdom inherited the land of New Rome, it did not inherit its prestige and was despised by the Western powers. That's why Professor Preskars is respected – he is also an expert in the development of power cores.
"I didn't expect you to come, Professor." Behind Pliskas, an unfriendly voice rang out.
"It turned out to be Duke Andrews, rude." Preskars bowed slightly, but did not salute. "This is the festival of the kingdom, and of course Your Majesty will come with great hospitality."
"Professor, do you know that Granny was humiliated by a country girl from Herod?" Duke Andrews asked with an unkind look on his face.
"Huh this?" Professor Preskars stopped, turned his head to look at the nobleman behind him, and smiled slightly, "I think the Provost should know better than me." With that, Preskars gracefully disappeared into the crowd of the feasters.
"Bastard!" The warrior whispered an extremely rude swear word. Although he had been in high office for ten years at this time, he was still essentially a thug in the Crusaders.
"Kukukuku, that uncle is really angry." The girl whispered a playful chic laugh at Pliskas's side.
"Whew~ It's not that you have to come over, otherwise you'll meet these nasty people!" Preskars whispered a grinning face and greeted the people around him.
"Sir is still so ignorant, but Alyssa is fed up with tinkering with those things in the lab. How can you miss a rare and lively festival! Alyssa picked up a plate of fruit pudding and scooped a spoonful of it to her mouth, her expression was almost blissful!
"What the hell is it, I can't stand you." Pliskas rubbed the girl's head unhappily and said. "But wouldn't it be too dangerous to leave Yulia alone at home?" Professor Preskars looked at Alyssa and blinked.
"No, isn't 'material' that dangerous?"
"No, I'm worried that kid won't be played to death by Yulia!"
・・・・・・
"Professor Preskas?" Suddenly, a voice behind him interrupted the conversation between Prescas and Alyssa, and Preskars subconsciously turned around and saw an incredible scene.
"Your Highness Ann Lost?!" Preskars asked, somewhat uncertain. The girl in front of her had only been seen for a few days, but her long hair, which was the envy of the world, was cut short to her shoulders, and her expression seemed to be a little bad.
"Hello, Professor." The image changed so much that Ann Loste was wearing a simple dress again, not only Priskas, but also the other nobles did not recognize it.
Ann Lotte deliberately lowered her top hat to cover her face, followed by a serious knight.
"Gui'an, Your Highness! I haven't seen him for a few days, and His Highness has changed so much. Priskas bowed his head, he was not a subject of the kingdom, so he did not need to salute. And Ann Roester didn't care.
"I'm really sorry that I didn't come to your lecture these days because of something." Ann Roester said with some embarrassment.
"Actually, it doesn't matter, after all, His Highness has more important things, doesn't he?" Preskas looked at Ann Lotte calmly, more curious than anything else about the true purpose of the princess.
There was a hint of hesitation in Ann Lotter's eyes, but she still asked, "Professor, you know that Sophia's classmate is there, and she doesn't seem to have come to the academy in the past few days. ”
Professor Preskars gently lifted his glasses, the reflection of the mirror obscuring his eyes. "I don't know why His Highness pays attention to that child."
"I've heard that she seems to live in Findall." There seemed to be a hint of gloom in Ann Lotter's eyes, after that catastrophe, the former ideal was ruthlessly destroyed. The girl is awakened by the harsh reality, but even so, Ann Loste wants to put an end to the country's misfortune. And the girl who was always Herod was a comfort and a kind of atonement for Ann Lother, but the disappearance of the past few days had completely sunk Ann Lost's heart into the sea of ice, maybe her efforts were really wrong.
"She's fine, because Miss Sophia has been living in the house." Preskas's words suddenly interrupted Ann Lost's thoughts.
"But..." Ann Lotte was stunned, and then her dim eyes suddenly glowed.
"Her brother is my assistant and they don't live there anymore. So please rest assured, Your Highness. Priskas smiled and sat down in the crowd with Alyssa.
"Sir, how can you guarantee that little girl will come back?" Alyssa asked quietly, and beside her, Professor Preskars said confidently and confidently:
"Because her brother is still here, then that child will not leave the land."
"But it's really amazing, as the center of the whirlpool of fate, it is destined to be difficult to get rid of the fate of being concerned by the superiors! Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is involved, which is really exciting! Looking at Ann Lot's distant figure, the man said quietly.
・・・・・・
In the cold room, the girl in a wide white coat looked at the sleeping teenager on the hospital bed, and said with a smile: "Very good, there should be no problem with the material at present." I'm really looking forward to testing him! As she spoke, the girl slashed twice with her silver-white scalpel on the boy's cheek, revealing a sickly smile.
"The great Knight King is nothing but a plaything of fate. Cons Dante! Only the maiden was left in the empty room, and she sighed softly for a long time.
