Chapter 70: What is Strength?
The temple guards were stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer him for a moment.
Lydia opened her mouth, her brow furrowed.
"Sorry, that might be a really hard question to answer."
Yes, this proposition is too big to rise to the level of philosophy.
Robin cupped his chin and pondered, "Or rather, who is stronger among us, yes, between me, you, and the rest of my companions here?" ”
Lydia thought for a moment, then turned her gaze to Luba and Gail in the trees.
"If it's hand-to-hand combat, there's no doubt it's Gael......"
Gail was slightly stunned, and turned his head sideways with a blush.
"However, if it's ten steps away, then the winner is probably Luba."
After Lydia finished speaking, Luba wiped her nose triumphantly.
Robin's gaze swept over everyone, "Do you agree?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, then nodded.
Robin took their expressions under his eyes and smiled in satisfaction.
"But, whether it is Luba or Gail, they must listen to me and obey my orders, so is not my strength stronger than theirs?"
"Huh?"
Lydia had a deceived look on her face, "The reason why they obey you is because you are ......"
"The Chosen One?"
Robin's eyes sparkled and he smiled softly.
Lydia nodded reluctantly.
"So, the power you just said ......"
The temple guards finally realized what Robin was trying to explain to them.
"Yes, force is a kind of power, but isn't power a kind of power other than that?" Robin looked at them with a grin.
The crowd lowered their faces and pondered Robin's words.
"Because Lord Robin has rights and status similar to those of the Grand Duke of Shalom and His Majesty the King, this is the power of countervail...... So our purpose is to send you to the King's Castle so that you can use the power of power to fight the Grand Duke of Shalom, right? ”
Lydia looked at Robin in surprise.
This thing is too unbelievable, although it makes sense literally, but ......
In reality, they still have to go through heavy guards and still have to go through bloody wars.
It's not something that is so easy to do.
"No, I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out, Lord Robin." Lydia held her head and shook her head back, "It's completely incomprehensible how to fight for power. ”
"Hahaha......"
Robin burst out laughing.
More than a dozen temple guards looked at Robin with the expression of looking at a monster.
"You're partly right." Robin retracted his smile and wiped his hand on his face.
It's ridiculously heavy on this damn rain.
"Gail," Robin looked up, meeting Gail's eyes in the tree.
The other party touched Robin's gentle but firm gaze, and lost his mind slightly.
"Do you follow me and listen to me just because I am the chosen one?"
"Huh?"
Gail looked at Robin in a daze, not knowing how to answer him for a moment.
"Is it just because I am the Chosen One? Are you obedient because of my power? Robin asked again.
As Gail looked at him, his heart beat rapidly.
Obviously it was such a dim light, and Robin only had one outline, and his body was hidden in the shadows.
But Gail saw his eyes clearly.
She still remembers the first time she met Robin.
I still remember those black eyes.
It's like the stars shining.
Robin was unlike any other person in a high position she had ever met.
If you want to say why she doesn't abandon Robin and dies-
"No, it's not, Lord Robin."
Gail turned his head sideways, hiding his face in the shade of the trees, not daring to look Robin in the eye.
"Lord Robin has never considered himself the Chosen One in front of me, nor has he used power to oppress me......"
On the contrary –
Gail vividly remembers that night in Secorid, when she knelt on the ground and saluted, Robin's hands held her up and told her not to kneel, they were equal.
And......
While being hunted by vampires, Robin desperately protects her.
When Iyeta turned into a vampire, when she held her throat tightly and couldn't breathe.
Just as she was about to lose her breath and fall into the arms of death.
[Enough. Robin shouted.
Iyeta turned her head to the side, a pair of scarlet eyes looking at him suspiciously.
[Let her go, I'll go with you.] 】
Gail shook all over his body, and his eyes snapped open.
She stared at Robin, tears glistening in her eyes.
It's just that the rain is pouring down, and the rain is getting louder, and Robin doesn't see the expression on her face change.
"What's the reason for that?" Robin looked at her with a smile and guided her.
It's like a beacon that illuminates Gael's whole world.
"Lord Robin is gentle, kind, and caring...... And, you have an incredible power, and that's ......"
Gail opened his mouth, his pupils dilated violently.
"That's ......"
"Wisdom."
She suddenly remembered what Kaye had said, that the hero of Secorrid, the Warden, had said that Robin had a more special power.
Something called wisdom.
"Thank you, Gail."
Robin got the answer he was looking for and turned away satisfied.
Leaving only a regretful Gail, he hides his face in the shade of a tree and is no longer visible.
Only Luba, who was next to her, felt the shiver from her.
"Gail."
Luba reached out and grabbed Gael's.
Her fingers were hot.
There was another sentence that Gale wanted to say but couldn't.
Then it became a flame that blocked my heart, and it burned hot.
That's because—
I like you, Lord Robin.
But when she looked at Robin, he had turned away, not seeing Gail's fiery gaze.
"There are many things that Gale said just now, and they have extremely powerful power, no less than force and power." Robin looked at the crowd calmly, smiling, like a missionary sent from heaven.
"For example, kindness, caring...... and wisdom. ”
Robin looked at them with a smile and raised his voice even louder, "Power makes people submit, violence makes people afraid, money makes people confusing, only wisdom and love can make people accept you willingly, embrace you, and be willing to be with you."
That's power. ”
The powerful voice pierced through the rain and fog, clearly conveyed into the hearts of everyone, and then burned violently.
The freckled guard stared at Robin so blankly that he forgot to wipe the rain from his face.
The rain clouded his eyes and also clouded Robin's face.
"Alone, maybe I'm no match for Gael, and when it comes to the strength of the army, we're nothing compared to the elite of Shalom, and as Lydia said before, if we can't even resist the king's personal guards, we can't compete with it. But ......"
Robin's face was filled with a confident and determined smile, which was enough to infect everyone.
"Wisdom and power, the strength they give me, is enough to make me Shalom's greatest opponent. And all you have to do is to send me, my sword, to her. ”
"That's it."
"As you wish."
Everyone put their hands on their chests in unison, and their movements were uniform, making a sudden sound.
"Woooooooooo......oo It's really impressive......"
It was at this moment that a strange voice sounded in the darkness, startling everyone.
"It's a pity that you won't be able to go to the King's Castle. Robin. ”
