Chapter XXXVIII
My choice?
Robin burst out laughing.
The smile on his face and Arce's gaze made Jessie panic.
So much so that she was speechless for a moment and forgot what she was going to say.
It was at this moment that Jiexi seemed to understand the tacit understanding between the Chosen One and the Holy Guardian of the Temple.
That terrible sense of crisis jumped from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
Jiexi's heart chuckled.
The carriage stopped impartially and right in the middle of the T-junction.
The temple is on the left and the king is on the right.
β¦β¦
Robin smiled slightly, giving Jiexi a reassuring look.
The other man covered his chest with his hand.
The Earl Jewy's heart almost came to a standstill.
He turned his gaze to Arce.
Arce was watching him, too, ready to respond to his expectations.
I have to say, this feeling of being in power is so good.
The owner of the temple gave him a special gift.
Butβ
No.
Arce.
No.
Robin shook her head, motioning for her not to act rashly.
His choice now was to go to the king.
"The temple district," Robin smiled and raised his hand, pointing to the right, "the king's district." I probably know, thank you for your patience. Jessa-sama. β
Jiexi looked at him motionlessly, even forgetting to urge the coachman behind her to keep going.
But she knew that no one could stop the temple guards as long as Arce wanted to.
"Then let's go on, I can't wait to see what the legendary king's palace looks like."
Hearing Robin's words, Jiexi was a little distracted.
She stood there for a second, then reacted immediately.
Jiexi raised her finger and tapped lightly on the door panel.
The horse's hooves rang out, and the body vibrated again.
It was only now, when he saw the changing scenery outside, that this courtier from the king's fortress, Count Jessy, breathed a sigh of relief.
Her back was already soaking wet.
His fingers trembled slightly.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like for Arce to take the Chosen One away right under her nose.
Extreme contempt for royal power?
The king's personal guards can even kill the temple.
But that would bring great disaster to the kingdom.
If you renounce the force of force, but personally shrine, then the identity and dignity of Your Majesty ......
It's horrible.
Moreover, if it weren't for going to the King's Castle, then almost everything they had done before would have been in vain......
She couldn't afford such a loss.
Jess smiled gratitatively at Robin, then took off her glasses with both hands.
She leaned back in her seat, her eyes slightly closed.
A heart beats wildly.
β¦β¦
In less than 3 seconds, Robin had almost everything he wanted.
First of all, Kaye's guess is true.
I have to admire the keen eyes of this old slippery head more than a hundred years ago.
Arce dared to take him back to the temple at such a time, which showed that the temple was powerful enough.
The master of the temple was no less powerful and powerful than the king.
And the shock and fear in Jiexi's eyes also confirmed this.
The gratitude in her smile afterwards wasn't feigned.
In this confrontation, Robin learns the weight of the upper class in both royal power and divine power.
Very straightforward and sharp.
It's like a knife on your head.
It's just that this head was Jiexi's just now.
Robin couldn't help but feel a little guilty about this.
I'm afraid this lady will have to be afraid of him for three points in the future.
In the past few days, Robin has brought her too much fear.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Jiexi was the king's courtier, he would still like this young lady.
It's gentle and pretty.
Both intelligent and empathetic.
Pity......
Robin put his hands flat on his knees and laughed calmly.
β¦β¦
"Lord Jiexi, there's Rose Castle ahead."
The voice of the coachman was heard in front.
Jiexi suddenly came back to her senses.
The coachman's voice was like a life-saving straw, or a magical power, that lifted Jiexi, who was about to drown, from the fear of her thoughts.
"We're here."
Jeongsie said this with a sigh, as if she had never thought that returning to the King's Castle would be such a pleasant thing.
That sentence was like a spell that saved her from an infinite nightmare.
And when she looked back at Robin, in the clear and innocent smile of this young man, there was no longer the shadow of the demon before.
But......
All she could say was lucky.
The clatter of horses' hooves resounded on the white rock floor.
The wheels rolled, carrying them into the distance.
Robin approached the window and looked ahead, and at the end of his line of sight, he saw a huge castle.
What catches your eye is the castle's M-shaped gate.
It is flanked by tall rock ramparts.
Although it is not as tall as the outer walls of Haoyue City, it is also very large-scale.
The tall trees on both sides were very neatly trimmed, and the white road paved forward all the way to the city gates.
"The castle was first built more than 300 years ago, and Helen Rose inaugurated the new Itnel era and built it at the same time.
So the King's Castle is also known as Ross Castle.
Then, after 300 years, through the continuous expansion and improvement of successive kings, it has formed the appearance we see today. β
Jiexi dutifully explained, "Actually, in the era of Helen Rose, the king of the dawn, there were no outside moats and tall walls, and at first King Helen was just for work and rest, so we will see later that the inner city of the king's castle is actually a very complete structure. β
The carriage led them through the long streets and the tall gates.
It's an amazing feeling.
It's as if you've walked through hundreds of years of history.
The characters that Jiexi had just mentioned, along with the thick history of this world, flew backwards with the tall arches of the city wall above them.
The wheels turned.
A heavy sound was made.
Just like the trajectory of history.
Turned to the present day.
In Robin's eyes, the two rows of buildings stretched inward, neatly arranged, like dutiful soldiers.
In front of them was a green meadow.
The flowers are in full bloom and are bright and dazzling in the lawn.
The surrounding shrubs are extremely well-trimmed.
According to Robin's estimates, the lawn is at least the size of four football fields.
As soon as the carriage entered the city gates, it circled along the lawn and sped past the buildings on the east side.
Some of those buildings were six or seven stories tall, with mahogany windows clearly visible.
I couldn't count how many rooms there were.
Rowling hugged Robin's arm and marveled.
It's like being in a fairy tale.
"On each of the four corners of the wall, there is a magic watchtower," Jesuss explained, "just like when we entered Bright Moon City, to prevent the mages from invading. Then ......"
She lifted her hand upwards and directed them to the east of the complex.
"This is the lower part of the castle, which is mainly used for defense and for the guards to live." Jess finished speaking, and then pointed her finger to the bottom of the complex.
Robin noticed that beneath this row of walls, there were stone gates at intervals.
Speaking of which, the style of the door is very peculiar, it is an open triangle.
The inside is large, and the outside is narrow, as if two doors were deliberately hidden.
"This kind of gate structure is actually for defense," Jiexi said with pride, "Every ten meters, there are similar fortifications here, and both sides are tamped with mud, and it is difficult to break through from the outside." Moreover, these doors are wide inside and narrow on the outside, which also makes it easier for the guards to form a small area of numerical superiority with more enemies and fewer enemies. β
I see.
Robin nodded, having to admire the wisdom of the people who built the castle back then.
"Haoyue City is full of disasters, there have been several civil strife in history, and there have been several cases of being attacked by enemy soldiers, in addition to the strong soldiers we have, the strong fortress is also an important reason why we can hold on."
Robin listened to Jiexi's explanation while translating to Rowling in Chinese.
The little girl's eyes lit up and she listened with relish.
"And then ......"
The carriage turned a corner and gradually galloped upward.
As the terrain climbs, the former complex gradually shrinks.
It was only then that Robin saw the general layout of Ross Castle -
The outer ring is a very regular square, and the complex and the walls are integrated, with tall magical watchtowers at the four corners.
Above the M-shaped arches, there are also various openwork windows and guard posts.
And on the inside, it is roughly an irregular quadrilateral climbing upwards.
The border between the large and small urban areas is all planted with lush forests.
"We're about to enter the inner area of Ross Castle now, also because of the higher terrain," Jessie said with a charming smile, "We also call it the upper area." β
Robin nodded, if it weren't for his good memory, I'm afraid he would have to get lost in this place.
In the line of sight of him and his sister, a tall circular tower was seen in the distance.
The white walls, the lavishly decorated window lattices above, and the lightning rod rising at the top are faintly visible.
"That must be where the king lives." Rowling called.
Jessie smiled slightly, and although she couldn't understand her words, she could roughly guess that Rowling was very interested in the building.
"You can't guess what it's for." The courtier, who came from the king's personal guard, laughed mysteriously and slyly.
Arce next to him let out a cold snort and lowered the brim of his hat.
Judging from her behavior, she is either accustomed to it and is not strange, or she is quite forced to look at it.
Especially Arce's cold snort just now made Robin feel different.
In the next second, Jiexi's voice sounded in his ears, telling him the answer-
"That round tower is used to imprison political opponents."
Robin was slightly stunned, then laughed.
He suddenly understood what Arce's cold snort and disdain were just now.
Perhaps it was an extremely filthy and filthy place for her.
"Quite a surprise indeed, Lord Jewy."
Robin translated what Jiexi had just said to her sister, and the little girl was also surprised.
"This round tower looks too luxurious, doesn't it? And ......" Rowling pointed above the round tower.
On that height, a star and moon banner embroidered with Itney's classic fluttered in the wind.
Moreover, the banner was surprisingly large, larger than anything they had seen on the outer walls of Bright Moon City before.
"Because those political opponents are very important and noble. So in fact, the interior facilities of this round tower are also very luxurious. Jiexi explained their doubts, "To be precise, the prisoners who have been held here are all very remarkable prisoners.
I'm sorry. β
Jiexi bowed slightly, and then pushed her index finger on the glasses on her face, "Although it sounds a little strange, I can only use the word I can't use to describe it."
Joanna Ross, the eldest daughter of King Thea the Confessor, was imprisoned here.
He also imprisoned the legendary Archon of Secored [Dolores Pegue], who is famous in history.
Even Sirius, the supreme one of the blasphemers, Sirius [Viven], lived here for a while. β
"Weaving ...... too" Robin looked at her suspiciously, "She's so powerful......"
"No," Jiexi smiled slightly, "people are not born strong, and Vivian back then was just a legendary mage of LΓ³pez. β
"More than three hundred years ago?" Robin suddenly understood.
In other words, Weaving was not a blasphemous when he was locked up here.
It doesn't have that much power yet.
"Yes, more than 300 years ago." Jiexi's eyes were misty, "It was a legendary era. Vivan, as LΓ³pez's political enemy, was imprisoned here for attacking King Helen Rose. But ......"
She sighed and laughed, "Who would have thought that Vivian would become a blasphemous and become so powerful. β
yes, who would have thought that?
Robin smiled faintly.
Even he himself was incredible.
He and his sister will be in such a fantasy world.
"Under the round tower, there is a deep well." Jeong-hee continued, "
Because the former defenders feared that they would not have water to drink after a long siege, they dug deep canals and dug many wells.
The former round tower was surrounded by a moat.
Today, the moat has been filled in with grass and flowers.
It's a pity that I didn't see the flowers blooming in the garden in winter. β
Jiexi glanced at the top of the round tower and landed on the star and moon banner waving in the wind.
"When the castle of Ross welcomes important guests, the royal flag is hung on the castle's round stone tower."
"Important guest ......" Robin suddenly realized, and quickly added, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Jiexi, you really flattered us." β
"What could be more important than you?" Jiexi smiled lightly, "Honorable Lord of the Chosen One. β
β¦β¦
The carriage circled past the tall White Tower, through the White Rock Road and an elaborate garden, before stopping.
"Lord Robin, we're here."
Jiexi bowed slightly, then opened the car door and got out.
She regained her usual grace and composure, standing outside the carriage, her skirt in one hand and Robin in the other.
Make a greeting gesture.
"Lord Robin. Welcome to the King's Hall. β
Jiexi's delicate melon seeds have a sweet smile on her face, and the round glasses show off her bookish taste and elegant temperament.
Robin was slightly stunned, then nodded.
"We're here." He said to his sister beside him.
"Wow, King?" Rowling lowered her voice and let out a low sigh.
"Yes, King." Robin winked at her.
He held out his hand and motioned for Rowling to get out of the car first.
Hei Chang's sister happily handed her hand to Jeong-hee, and then jumped out of the carriage.
"Wow...... That's ......"
She put her hands on her chest and straightened up, her eyes wide in amazement.
In front of her stands such a row of buildings (εδΊδΊθ»θ¨ε) (please forgive the author's statement can't).
It can be described as magnificent.
In the middle is a tall three-storey convex building, with a sharp top straight upwards, neat two-story row buildings on both sides, and a straight corridor at the bottom.
On the dense marble columns, various magical patterns are carved -
Lions, tigers, wolves, and many terrifying creatures that Rowling has never seen.
On the stone steps of the doorway, a row of guards stood neatly.
They were all in silver armor and helmets, armed with swords and shields, and fully armed.
If it weren't for their eyes, Rowling would have almost thought they were museum-like sculptural dummies.
"Oh my God, brother, these are real......"
When Robin jumped to the ground, she hugged Robin's arm tightly.
"What do you think?"
It can be seen that these guards are all carefully selected and loyal people with great abilities.
However, what he cared about most was the man standing on the stone steps in the middle of the gate.
It was a woman of about 50 years old.
The other party was dressed in civilian clothes, all black, with blonde gray hair coiled behind his head in an orderly manner, and his demeanor was dignified and elegant.
Her hands were staggered in front of her chest, her gaze calmly watching them.
However, Robin felt the fluctuations of magic surging through her.
Not surprisingly, this man should be quite a powerful magician.
"Lord Robin." Jiexi hurriedly stepped forward and introduced, "This is Ruby Lester, the palace butler of the King's Castle. β
After she finished speaking, she turned to the side and made a gesture of please for Robin, "The rest of the journey will be led by Lord Ruby." β
Ruby Lester smiled, folded her hands to her chest, and bowed deeply to Robin.
"Lord Robin, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, please come with me."
With that, she turned gracefully and walked into the hall.
"Rowling, you're here, listen to Kaye and Gail, I'll be back later."
"Oh, good, good." Rowling agreed, but rolled two big eyes in her heart.
She slandered in her heart, the language is not clear, how do you tell me to be obedient?
Robin took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and followed Ruby's steps inside.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
It is a hall about 200 square meters wide, and the hall is decorated with a variety of famous wooden furniture and leather sofas.
Robin doesn't understand their value.
The walls on both sides of the hall are covered with paintings, landscapes and portraits.
But without exception, all of them are women.
Robin didn't know them.
There is a Z-shaped staircase on each side leading to the building.
When Robin looked up, he could see the tall crystal chandeliers hanging high in the sky, and the brilliant patterns on the outer walls.
On the balcony on the second floor, there stood a burly lady.
Yes, burly, Robin's first impression when he first saw her was this.
She has broad shoulders, a neck thicker than the average person, and thick arms.
It's just that when Robin noticed the short staff in her hand, the whole person was suddenly stunned.
No way?
The head of the staff was shortly raised with a circle, or more precisely, carved into the shape of a round crown, bordered in gold with a red base.
The short staff is golden all over, and even with the crystal light in the sky, it still can't hide the noble luster.
Robin's heart thumped.
Judging from his old knowledge, no guard would dare to wander around with such a thing.
Nor did the squire dare to wear a moon-shaped crown with a golden rimmed on his head......
"Your Majesty." Ruby bowed slightly, her face looking a little surprised.
But the seasoned and calm palace butler immediately regained his composure, and introduced him with his palm, "This is the Chosen One, I brought him." β
"Okay. Ruby. The King's gaze rested on Robin's body, and his voice was loud and pleasant, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been here so early. β
Yes, according to Robin's idea, she should sit on some throne made of cold iron and covered with swords, and greet him with a gloomy gaze.
And not as it is now......
This majesty does not look as terrible as imagined.
"So," Ruby made an upward gesture to signal Robin to go up the stairs on the right.
"Come on, good boy." On the balcony on the second floor, a smile of relief appeared on King Olivia's face, and he opened his arms to Robin, "Come up, let me take a good look at you." β
This......
Robin raised his toes in confusion and looked up at each other step by step.
His leather boots made a crisp sound on the mahogany staircase.
His eyes were calmly fixed on the ground.
What to do?
The current King of Itnell.
Olivia, the kindness she showed just now, doesn't seem like acting.
The curvature of her arms was too real.
It's likeβ
A mother who is looking forward to the return of her child.
But, Robin, you have to calm down.
The current position and relationship are not clear, but don't be fooled.
In the history he had learned earlier in textbooks, the relationship between the king and the church was not always harmonious.
Constantine's gift.
Cluny Movement.
Crusades......
Hey, it seems that all of this is caused by the excessive power of the church.
Wrong wrong.
Robin is nervous, trying to find evidence from the history he had learned before.
Frederick II.
Prisoner of Avignon.
But......
Fuck, what the hell am I trying to prove?
At this moment, Robin was already standing on the second floor.
He was less than five meters away from Olivia, the current king of Itney.
Robin looked up cautiously.
In the midst of the lights, he finally saw the other party's appearance clearly.
It was a softly contoured face.
Olivia has a delicate face that is extremely disproportionate to her figure.
The standard goose egg face is more in line with the aesthetics of the Orientals.
At the same time, her facial features are not so three-dimensional.
His black eyes sparkled like night.
Her long black hair was neatly combed back in a bun, and the gold-rimmed crown on her head shone brightly.
She wore a black coat with a mink collar that showed her white neck.
Olivia's face was full of smiles, and there wasn't much of a king frame he had in mind.
Orβ
She didn't want to show the king's iron and majestic side in front of her.
You know, in Heloise's description, the Majesty in front of her is the one who took Rosalind to clear the Assassins who invaded the palace.
Olivia's eyes were slightly distracted.
She gently rested the scepter in her hand on the floor with a thud.
The palace steward below frowned slightly, then ran up quickly with the hem of his skirt and carefully picked up the scepter.
β¦β¦
"Good boy, come closer." Olivia beckoned, motioning for Robin to take a few steps forward.
I don't know why, but at this point, when he was really faced with the fear he had imagined countless times, Robin was not afraid.
He squeezed out a smile and tried to keep his body as straight as possible.
Robin's leather shoes squeaked slightly against the wooden floor......
He stopped less than a step away from Olivia, looking at each other.
"Good boy, you're more ...... than I thought you would Well...... Strong. β
Olivia hesitated for a moment, and finally used the word strong.
Unless it's a warrior like Gail and Kaye, Robin thinks he's stronger than the average woman, as a man.
"Your Majesty, you are more ...... than I thought Hmm......" Robin looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
"Strong!" Olivia helped him finish the rest of the sentence and patted him the shoulder.
It's like it's done between men.
Robin couldn't help but think that in fact, when there is no gender distinction, women and men behave not much different.
"Good, that's a good start." Olivia laughed, "I really like you. Sincerely. β
She patted Robin on the shoulder and beckoned to him, "Come on, kid." β
Olivia took a sturdy stride forward, heading deeper into the corridor.
β¦β¦
Olivia led Robin into a large hall.
You can see that the place is very well decorated.
The marble floor, which was covered with a red carpet, had only a few traces of marble in the corners.
It is surrounded by oil paintings, which are worth a lot of money as you can tell from the golden frames.
There are various sculptures placed around it, and at first glance it is a masterpiece of a famous artist.
In the center of the hall are three large red benches and leather sofas.
Olivia beckoned Robin to sit down.
The palace butler poured a quilt of milk tea for Robin at the right time.
"Please make this your own home, don't be inhibited." Olivia laughed.
"Okay, okay." Robin casually responded, but still sat upright, carefully sipping the drink from his glass.
The milky aroma is rich and fragrant, with a hint of tea.
A little bitter.
Robin's gaze fell on the wall, and the figures ......
Starting from the left, to the right, there were a total of thirteen figures, each holding in their hands-
Sceptre.
His eyes lit up suddenly.
Oh my God, these people are ......
"Famous kings in the history of Itnell."
Noticing Robin's gaze, Olivia laughed, "Of course, there is only a part of this, and the list is the kings of the last three hundred years, except for some notorious ones who have been stripped of their royal power. β
"Stripping the king?" Robin looked at her quizzically.
"Oh, by the way, you don't know that, my child." Olivia smiled kindly and gently, and turned to look at the portrait on the wall, "It's like the infamous [Beheader] [Fay Rose] was not hung up because he killed too much in his life. β
When she said this, she pursed her lips meaningfully and lowered her voice, "Even so, she was imprisoned in the round tower and spent the second half of her miserable life. β
Robin remembered that when he was passing by the Upper District earlier, Jeongie had mentioned the Round Pagoda used to hold political opponents.
"The one on the far left." Olivia stood up and paced to the wall covered with portraits, pointing to the leftmost one.
Robin followed.
It was a woman with a sword in her left hand and a scepter in her right hand, smiling wildly.
Unlike the other kings, the portrait is depicted in armor with long bright blonde hair draped over his shoulders.
I have to say that being able to paint people to this extent shows that the painters at that time had a deep foundation.
"This is Helen Ross three hundred years ago, and the inaugurator of a new era in Itnair, calledβ"
"King of the Dawn." Robin blurted out.
"Yes, King Dawn." Olivia nodded approvingly, "Your Normelic lingua franca is so good. It seems that you can save a course later. β
"......" Robin had a black line on her head, not knowing how to answer her.
"The beginning of any new era is accompanied by darkness. Heren Ross overthrew Amira's rule and established the Rus' dynasty. And ......," her gaze glanced at the last portrait, "Sylvara Leonard, who ended the dark reign of Jenny Rose, the last man of the Rus' dynasty. β
It was a delicate and beautiful portrait.
The king, known as Seviala, stood in a patch of grass with his back against a large tree.
She held a scepter in one hand and hung low at her side.
In the other hand, he holds the rose high in front of his chest.
Lips slightly open.
Her eyes are amber.
Maybe reddish.
Robin couldn't tell if it was the color of the eyes themselves, or if it was the color of the rose.
In short, the artist's painting skills are exquisite, and the whole scene and even the expressions of the characters are vividly depicted.
The gentle and delicate side of this middle-aged woman, as well as the deep and atmospheric side of the king, are revealed.
Sceptre.
Rose.
As she smiled, Robin seemed to be infected.
That person, in the portrait, is as if he is alive.
She was waving to him in an enthusiastic way.
Robin blinked.
Take a deep breath.
Severa ......
It was the first time he had heard the name.
Last in line.
But it's not Rose's surname.
At the same time, he realized that the story behind that name -
The first king died in an assassination attempt sixteen years earlier.
Olivia helped the king avenge his revenge while blocking the enemy's attack......
It turned out to be here.
"Severa used to be the person I respected the most," Olivia's eyes showed a hint of regret, a touch of sadness, "and also used to be my closest comrade-in-arms...... It's a pity ......"
She raised her gaze to Robin and squeezed out a smile, "The scepter in my hand should have belonged to the Leonard family, and the back should be covered with portraits of the Leonard family. She is a good king. β
Robin nodded slightly, but did not speak.
"Oh, yes." Olivia pulled herself together, threw aside the dull atmosphere just now, and pointed to the left for the second portrait, "Do you think this painting is particularly strange hanging here?" β
"Strange?"
Robin turned his gaze in confusion.
The person in the portrait grins, the smile is sincere and simple, and the owner of the painting looks unusually young compared to the others.
She was wearing a white linen short-sleeved blouse with a green meadow behind her.
The figure is sitting on the edge of the river, barefoot, and his calves submerged in the river.
She propped one hand on the riverbank, and the other hand stroked the long hair in her ear.
Long red hair, like flames.
To say strange things -
"She has a ...... hand," Robin said with a hint of surprise at last, noticing the difference, "she doesn't have a scepter in her hand." Moreover, she is also dressed too ...... It's a little more simple......"
Robin didn't want to use the word shabby.
A king, hung on the wall, without a scepter should be nothing, everyone has their own preferences.
However, in this row of scepter-bearers, it seemed a little out of place.
"That's because ......," Olivia sighed slightly, "she didn't make it to king." β
"And she...... How could it be ......" Robin was confused.
"This is the Plebeian Knight King, Gail Fassbinder."
Gail?
Robin's heart skipped a beat.
In this way, she is the famous hero of history that Gale particularly admired before.
Even vampires are afraid of talking about this historical figure.
Speaking of which, she is somewhat similar to the current priest guard, the young Gail.
"She should have been king," Olivia laughed, "but Gale gave up the throne to Helen Ross and made him King of the Dawn." β
"What?" Robin looked at Olivia in disbelief.
"Yes, if you want to be seriously investigated, it should be Gale who led the people to overthrow the tyranny of the king, and together with Helen Ross, led the warriors to fight to the death and drove the vampires back to the Eastern Continent, she is a well-deserved hero, and she should have been crowned king."
Olivia's eyes showed a deep admiration, "In the end, she chose to leave her sword and helmet behind and go back to the country." That's why her portrait appears here, along with Helun the Great. β
Robin's chest rose and fell.
Mood swings are terrible.
He couldn't imagine what it was......
For Gale in history, he didn't know what to describe except in amazement.
"Great, isn't it?" Olivia smiled.
"Yes."
Robin nodded, having to admit it.
"Gail was truly for the people, she was not an aristocrat, she was born into a peasant family, and if nothing else, she should have lived a life of farming and herding until she died.
However, the reign of darkness and the bloody war made her stand up.
It was also through countless deaths that Gale grew into a venerable hero, a warrior of great power.
Then when she won everything for the people, she still returned to her hometown with that beautiful civilian dream. β
Olivia let out a low sigh, "In my heart, no, in the hearts of all Itnelles, there is no one like her." β
Oh, yes......
Robin echoed in his heartβ
How could such a great person not be amazing.
Even......
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, how could he have believed that anyone could really do this?
From the masses, to the masses.
Give up the supreme power in your hands and return to the dust.
Within the scope of his knowledge, I am afraid that there are only Washington and Joan of Arc......
"I've heard about your experiences on the road." Olivia changed her words and laughed happily, "Thank the gods that you can return safely." β
Thank God......
Robin was a little speechless for a moment.
"Before you come, I have already consulted with the Divine Envoy." Olivia laughed, "Jeeki must have told you before, we're going to create a new experience for you, well, and your sister." At the same time, in the future, someone will arrange relevant courses for you. β
"Hmm." Robin nodded.
They also had to learn the language and script of Itnell.
"As for Saiya's business." Olivia frowned, unable to hide the sadness in her heart, "The Sekrides will send back the remains of the priest team who traveled this time.
And there will inevitably be a conversation between us and them. β
Olivia squeezed out a smile, "This matter is not just a matter of the Temple, but also of the whole of Itnell. β
"So, are we going to have a war after that?" Robin asked tentatively.
"Haha." Olivia laughed, "No, no, kid. Things are not that complicated, and they are not that simple. If only war could solve the problem......"
She groaned for a moment, then shook her head.
"These things have to wait for the Saikrid people to come."
At this point, she suddenly raised her head as if she had suddenly realized.
"By the way, I think you'd better prepare, after all, it's the Chosen One, and the cause of this incident was the assassination of the priest. You may need to play at that time. β
"Me?" Robin smiled wryly, "What can I do?" β
"Hahaha......" Olivia laughed happily.
She patted Robin the shoulder, "You don't have to worry too much, you don't need to do it unless you have to. After all, the master of the temple will take care of it. β
Speaking of the oracle, Olivia's smile seemed to freeze for a second.
"You know, I was also brought up by her."
"Huh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Robin's eyes.
The current majesty was brought up by a divine envoy, which is really unexpected.
And, according to his observations, Olivia is now middle-aged, so the owner of the templeβ
How old is that?
The image of an old man with gray hair came to his mind.
Robin couldn't help but get worried.
Can such an oracle really handle the aftermath?
"So do you have anything to ask me?" Olivia folded her hands to her chest and looked at him calmly and gently.
Hey?
Robin's pupils diated slightly, a little surprised.
This sentence is too familiar to him-
It's like when he was looking for a job in his previous internship, and when he went through the whole process during the interview, the interviewer politely asked as a closing remark:
"So do you have anything to ask me?"
This plot is not right.
According to Kaye and his original idea, Olivia should throw out an olive branch and list a whole lot of benefits of working with her, or some way to win his trust, and end with Robin's sincere and heartfelt allegiance.
But......
What are all these things you just said?
