Chapter 63: Canonization (II)

I didn't care about everyone's strangeness to me, but directly asked Luo Ning to teleport everyone back. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 After all, this banquet is also the best time to communicate with important officials from other countries. And if you stay outside for a long time, don't waste the opportunity, once something unexpected comes to us, and everyone is not there, it will be a big mess.

Everything seems to have returned to calm, and everyone is not saying anything, they also know that now is not the time to investigate why I have such an expression, at most, there will only be some plausible marks left in everyone's future marks, maybe everyone will completely forget about this matter after Jin Feng accepts it.

In short, this matter is in the past for the time being. We entered the banquet hall and returned to our respective roles, the companions went to the place where the non-aristocratic ministers communicated, while Gianna and I continued to walk into the upper echelons in a way of mutual intimacy, exchanging trivia and interests with the nobles and lords of other countries that made me seem very superficial....

I had expected Gianna and I to go to a king's meeting, but unfortunately, by the time I went to see Uther, they had already gone to another private meeting house with the archbishop and Antonio and the others.

As a result, I was forced to get to know the nobles of the kingdoms, which may have been an experience, but I was dismayed by the feeling that these people I was talking to were a bunch of pampered people. That's right, they inherited this great business only because of their status. I seem to understand a little about this, the same is in charge of the orc detention center, Blackmore can bring income to the country, and they only know what it means to close their eyes and ask for money.

In contrast, I might have preferred the Magic and Ronin objects, as they were communicating with ministers who were powerful but not with aristocratic backgrounds. Obviously, if you are there, you will definitely be able to establish your own strong prestige...

But then again, seeing the likes of Ronin and Falic in their sought-after appearance may still mean that it doesn't matter if I'm there or not, after all, giving them there is already equivalent to my existence. It's just that I'm in the current environment and I can't help but feel a wave of disgust in my heart.

But these are only temporary, and after a few words of ink with them, I followed Gianna to the queen mother to taste the warmth. Especially before my sister leaves, it seems that it is more necessary for me to comfort her old man's feelings, and for my sister's imminent departure, Gianna and I may not be able to enjoy the usual brother and sister affection together...

In this way, before I knew it, the time went from afternoon to evening. Several kings walked out of the gates, guarded by Dasohan. This also means that today is also the time for the main event--- the official canonization of the paladin.

Faric and Winlessa and I consciously stepped forward, lined up with Stormwind King Varian before the archbishop, and knelt down to accept his prayers.

"Varian Wrynn, Arthas Minethir, Winlessa Windrunner, and Farik Chris, do you swear that you will always abide by the law and glory of the Silver Hand?"

"I swear. "We said in unison,

"Do you swear that you will always walk in the way of the Light and spread His wisdom among your followers?"

"I swear. ”

.....

Every time the archbishop recited the Paladin's Codex, we responded to those three words, and it was not until the basic rules of the Paladin's promotion were finished that Master Alonso signaled to his only two apprentices, my master Uther and my uncle Dasohan, to bless us together.

Soon the intense light shone upon us and tried to penetrate our bodies, and I could see that the three of them had to close their eyes as I could see the intense light shining on us. I can't help but remember the time when my three companions misused the light to bring me to my knees.

I thought about that happy time, but soon realized that it was wrong,

Why don't I feel that way? I asked myself secretly, and although I could feel the light gradually merging into me, I didn't feel the same surrender to the three of them, but I felt an inexplicable familiarity with the light in my heart, as if my own strength had returned. And I remember my teacher saying that my state at this time was like them, feeling as if I had been hollowed out, cleansed, and then re-enriched.

But I didn't feel that way, I just felt that the power of the Holy Light in my hands was much stronger.

As they gradually opened their eyes, my body involuntarily stood up in astonishment, and looked at my hands a little confused. I really don't know why it's like this.

At this time, the audience began to whisper eagerly, some expressed sadness, some were puzzled, and some even made mocking voices, yes, everyone would have thought that I was feeling confused that I had not been accepted by the Light.

"Are you alright? "My father, who had seen every paladin's canonization, couldn't help but ask me with concern, but in his lost look, he clearly thought so. And I also saw that the guy with gray temples actually showed a smug smile. It was a smile that disgusted me, and I knew how I could fight back against the guys who were laughing at me.

"I'm fine, it's just that I feel the strength that Tulayan has given me..."I replied loudly to my father's doubts, and at the same time anger helped me to release my newfound light, and at this moment, a light that could rival that Lord Alonso wanted to match was like a sun shining on the whole hall, and the intensity of this anger brought to me could not help but make everyone present cover their eyes.

After that, almost everyone was puzzled, but this time no one thought I had been abandoned by the Light.

"Arthas!?" said Gianna, worried, her eyes that never shied away from the light I was showing. I don't know what that means, but I think I can only assume that she cares deeply about me, yes, it must be so.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me. I replied to Gianna firmly, and in any case, I was glad that my loved one was doing the same for me.

But now is not the time for children to grow up, and after answering the worries of my beloved, I immediately turned to everyone. Yes, this is a unique opportunity to show yourself to the nobility and good ministers... A chance to make a name for yourself again.

"You may wonder why I didn't receive the baptism of light like other paladins. I said as I looked at everyone's puzzled expressions, and then raised my voice slightly and became sensational. "Yes, I don't understand it either, but what I don't understand even more is that some people are questioning that my oath just now is false, and it really makes me sad to see me make a fool of myself here. ”

I paused, watched everyone calm down, and then continued:

"Once upon a time, I dreamed with my buddies that I would be able to stand on this stage and become a true paladin. Guided by Archbishop Alonso, his master and three uncles, and now when he recalls his dream, he realizes that the current alliance is not just the loss of two excellent paladin uncles....."

Seeing that everyone couldn't help but show some sadness, I also secretly took a deep breath and made my tone more serious.

"It has only been a few years since Turayan and the expeditionary force died, and the alliance has become like this! The remnants of the orcs are now well aware of our current situation, and for this reason they dare to descend on the realm of Stormwind once again, threatening the peace we have just bought with blood. And now some countries are still indifferent at this time, and even think about weakening the strength of others by sending troops to other countries. If it is so contrary to conscience, what face will there be to step into the Archbishop's Church, what face will there be to accept the gift of the Holy Light!"

My words stirred up, and yes, this kind of timeless remark did make a lot of people feel ashamed, and it was exactly what I expected. Because this is the critical moment to establish my image among the Terrans as the commander of the Alliance.

"Do you still remember those eventful years?"

I groaned, and I couldn't help but think of the battle under Lordaeron, "Although the entire alliance is in danger, we can still form our strong defense line side by side, hand in hand, to withstand the repeated attacks of the orcs. At that time we were never discouraged by the loss of our comrades and loved ones, nor did we despair because of the ferocity of the enemy, because we knew that victory must belong to our alliance, because we were righteous, united, and blessed by the Light....I don't know how you will lick your face and meet your friends or relatives who have become martyrs when you go to heaven. ”

When I said this, almost everyone felt guilty, and when I saw them like this, I knew it was time for me to change my ways, and I gradually released a gentle light.

"And how I hope that now, in the name of the Light, I can do my part for the safety of our entire race and the entire continent, so as to truly realize the virtues marked on the Code of Light, and the greeting that we have on our lips... The Light is with you!" I said, and at the same time the Light I released gradually penetrated into the hearts of individuals, and many of us were leaving tears of remorse at this moment. And with the slapping of my hands, followed by the incessant applause and the high admiration for me...

That's right, that's the purpose of my speech, and I can't help but smile smugly at the bottom of my serious face. Yes, seeing them show me that way is the real purpose of my speech.
