Chapter 95: Lancelot (Dragon Knight Arc)
Zheng Ming was very irritable. It's been a month since I came to this world, and as the days go by, everything seems peaceful and boring. It racked its brains to find a way back, but it didn't have the slightest clue.
Zheng Ming was bored. After experiencing the initial curiosity about the new world and gradually becoming familiar with the new environment, this world that looks like the medieval West becomes more and more boring.
There is no beautiful natural environment and strange creatures in the Forest of Calamity, no sense of urgency and excitement in Goblin Village, and no new and exciting knick-knacks in Tongming Village. Everything here seems backward and monotonous. Add to that the fact that there is nothing to do all day, and it all seems even more monotonous.
As it braced its cheeks in thought, a sudden shrill cheer was mixed with screams. A loud and loud voice interrupted its thoughts, causing it to raise its eyes and look into the middle of the field.
This is a martial arts arena. The area is not big, but it is not small. It is large enough for two knights to compete in riding skills, and as small as the knights must slow down immediately after staggering to avoid breaking through the railing.
It was the two knights who clashed in the middle of the field. Only now one was knocked to the ground by the round spear head covered in leather and cotton, and the other jumped off his horse to enjoy the applause of the crowd.
Fight. It is one of the few entertainment items here. It is divided into many kinds, among commoners, among nobles, open, semi-public. And this one in front of him is a small competition of nobles both on and off the field.
The knight, who was enjoying the cheers of the crowd, took off his helmet. Short blond hair like flames and handsome sculptural faces are exposed to everyone's view. As he appeared with a light smile, the cheers and screams around him suddenly increased by several decibels. There are also some bold aristocratic ladies who express their love loudly as if no one else is around.
"Rose Knight, you are so handsome. I love you. ”
"Rose Knight, you are the strongest. I am the niece of the Earl of Russell. My name is Sindy~~~"
…………
In the face of the fanatical and bold speeches of the noble ladies, the knight made a knightly salute gracefully to the surroundings and walked in front of the loser.
"Knight of the Dawn, you are a formidable opponent. But the knight relies on more than just horsemanship, his mount is also a vital part. My old buddy is a rare dragon's blood BMW. I took advantage of this. ”
The defeated knight also took off his helmet at this point, revealing his brown hair and freckled young face.
"Rose Knight, you don't have to be presumptuous. Your riding skills are far superior to mine, and it's not up to you to make up the gap with your mounts alone. I'm convinced to lose to you. ”
Saying that, the defeated young knight stretched out his hand and shook the hand that had been stretched out in front of him for a long time. So the victor pulls up the loser, and the beautiful picture of the two sides standing side by side and saluting the audience unfolds. The cheers and cheers around them also rose to a high pitch again.
"Cut, from such a distance, all the audience can hear their conversation clearly. Lancelot, this kid is a hypocrisy. ”
Zheng Ming looked at the scene in front of him and complained uncomfortably to Gwyna beside him.
"What do you say? You rat wrapped in a black robe and won't show your face. Which family are you from? How dare you slander Lord Rose Knight. ”
"That's it. Is there anyone more perfect in the world than him? Powerful, handsome, courteous, and obedient to knightly rules. Even in terms of private life, there has never been a peach scandal. ”
"I think he's jealous. Because he can't see anyone, he can only hide in the black robe, so he hates Lord Rose Knight so much. ”
"That's it. He's just jealous. ”
Seeing that the around him could actually hear his own whispered complaints while screaming, and instantly formed a circle of condemnation around him, Zheng Ming rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Gwyna, who was shrouded in Zheng Ming's gray robe of the same style, saw Zheng Ming's predicament, and pulled it with a low chuckle and fled the scene.
"Ah~~~ I hate that kid at Lancelot."
In a remote corner, Zheng Ming, who had finally escaped from the hateful sight, shouted loudly.
"I can't figure out why you hate him so much. He has not sinned against you. So handsome, so polite. ”
"Cut, I just hate his handsome face. A fake smile, polite and full of grace. No matter how you look at it, it's not real at all. ”
Saying that, Zheng Ming also imitated Lancelot's elegant demeanor. However, no matter how you imitate it, it looks very awkward.
"Poof, how can anyone be like you? Okay, stop making trouble. It's all your fault, we can only wait here. You are really, people kindly invited us to watch his competition, and you even said bad things about others. I don't know where Arthur went? Just now, I just cared about pulling you to escape, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye. ”
"He's embarrassed to call it a martial arts competition? It's obviously a show. Why don't you go to those dramas? ”
Since the first meeting that day, Gwyna's enthusiastic personality can't help it, and Arthur is busy with schoolwork and is often absent, so the two gradually become familiar with each other all day long. And Lancelot, known as the Rose Knight, met through Gwynna's introduction.
Lancelot seemed to be perfect. He has a handsome appearance full of masculinity, great strength, impeccable elegance and politeness that even a noble etiquette teacher has, and a demeanor of words and deeds. All of this adds up to a lack of flaws. But Zheng Ming just hates him. This is something that even it itself is surprised and puzzled by.
"Perhaps...... Possible...... Seems to be out of jealousy? ”
After pondering for a long time, Zheng Ming came to a conclusion that was not quite sure.
Today, Lancelot invited Zheng Ming and the others in the name of watching his own martial arts competition, and made it clear that he hoped that everyone would stay and come to his house to talk. Although Zheng Ming was reluctant in every way, he couldn't help Gwynna's soft grinding and hard bubbles and Arthur's request, and reluctantly came here.
"Hmph, as I expected. What jousting? It's just a show, a show. Then again, why did Arthur come? He pushed down the course just to see this? ”
Zheng Ming, who was dragged by Gwynna to find Arthur, was still thinking about it angrily. It's not because of the unreasonable. Just because Arthur was also coming, the three formed a minority to obey the majority, which made it impossible to refuse. That's where its resentment lies.
"Maybe I want to come over and find out how strong Lancelot really is. After all, the Rose Knight is powerful in the aristocratic circle. There is even a saying of the strongest knight. Don't look at Arthur usually like that, in fact, he is still very persistent towards knights. ”
As they spoke, they had searched all around the arena, but they found no trace of Arthur. From a distance, I saw that the flags in the middle of the field had been replaced by the emblems of the Bucks and the Northern Plains Wolves.
"Have they already gone back? Why don't we go to Lancelot's house? Even if they're not there, we can wait there. ”
Gwynna's proposal made a lot of sense, Zheng Ming pondered for a moment, and reluctantly agreed: "Okay." ”
So the two of them put on their hoods again and hurried in the direction of Lancelot House.
