Chapter 165: The Emperor's Ambition
However, just as Kenneth rushed back to the rest area to celebrate the victory with everyone, Claire slowly walked to the rest area of Holman Academy, looked at Vincent sitting in a chair with a pale face, ignored the glaring eyes of the other Holman students, and said to him, "This is a close game. ”
Vincent raised his eyelids, and the double exhaustion of his mind and body made him squeeze out a smile and said, "This is comfort?" ”
Claire shook her head, "I've never been good at comforting people. ”
Vincent closed his eyes, suppressed the emotions stirring in his chest, and finally put on that cynical appearance: "Forget it, Holy Grail, let it be to you bastard." ”
"Don't lose to anyone else."
Claire was not good at words, but after listening to Vincent's words, he was silent, nodded and turned to leave.
"By the way, let's have dinner together in the evening."
Claire turned his head, thought for a moment, and then refused, "Not available." ”
"I've found out a little bit about Avery Jackman," Vincent said, tilting his head and curling the corners of his lips, "Interested in listening?" ”
Claire's body shrank for a while, her pupils shrank, she walked up to Vincent, pretended to be calm and asked, "What did you find?" ”
"Free for the night?" Vincent asked maliciously.
“…… Place. Claire gritted her teeth.
"Brightman Royal Hotel Rooftop Restaurant, 10 p.m., don't forget." Vincent said with a triumphant smile.
"Okay." Claire shook his robe and walked towards his rest area, but his pace was noticeably faster.
Vincent stared at Claire's back and slowly closed his eyes, as the fatigue accumulated before came flooding in.
It's over......
This frivolous man who has always been hippie and smiling has a tear slipping from the corner of his eye.
"President ......" but the voices full of worry sounded one after another.
Vinson opened his eyes and swept over Martin, Mina, Matt, and Deamond and Tomar, who had not had a chance to play, and the faces of all five were full of concern about Vincent's psychological state at this time.
Vincent sighed, these people were his carefully selected companions, and he wanted to bring them to a higher honor, but he still failed here, so he smiled unwillingly and said regretfully: "It seems that our student career is about to end in failure." ”
Mina, the only female member of the team, couldn't help but sobbed under her breath when she heard Vincent's words, while the other people's emotions became slightly excited.
"Don't cry," Vincent said softly, "the juniors are watching." ”
As he said this, Vincent stood up, stretched out his finger and slowly swept all the Holman students in the audience from left to right, and then raised his fist fiercely.
Seeing this, the other five also stretched out their fists to the younger students.
All of the Holman students couldn't help but warm their eyes when they saw this, and then they couldn't help but stand up and cheer on their seniors.
They all know that the seniors on the field will graduate next year, and in the end, they still stop at the top ten.
Therefore, the next history will be created by their descendants.
Even at the last moment, they are still the most handsome seniors in the eyes of the younger generations.
Alva in the audience saw this scene and exclaimed, "You really found a good seedling, Eugene." ”
However, Eugene looked displeased, pouted and said, "I lost the game, what's the use of doing this?" ”
Alva just glanced at Eugene, and then his eyes fell on Vincent, who was exiting.
There are always some people who are born with such charm, and can easily mobilize the emotions of others with just a few simple actions, and the world calls this kind of person "the weapon of the king", Vincent is, and so is Klar.
Sometimes, after living for a long time, I really want to see what kind of future these young people will have.
Shortly after Kenneth left the field, Kenneth was approached by a uniformed soldier who said that the Military Intelligence Bureau had some questions to know about the Leobold case.
When Claire and the others saw that the rank and officer of the comer were not fake, they could only let Kenneth follow the officer to the military headquarters, while the others went back to the hotel to prepare for the evening celebration banquet and enjoy the joy of victory with the whole school.
Kenneth sat in the carriage, there were no windows on all sides, it was a completely confined space, and the officer opposite him was still a middle-aged man with a tense face all the time, and Kenneth was also worried about it, so he asked, "Sir, where are we going?" ”
The middle-aged officer clasped his hands to his chest and stared at Kenneth's face with brown eyes, and replied formulaically, "You don't need to care about that. ”
Kenneth was deflated and continued to ask unwillingly, "It shouldn't take too much time, right?" My friend and I even made an appointment to go to the Rein River. ”
And the middle-aged officer still said with a blank face: "You don't need to care about this issue. ”
Kenneth grinded his teeth and asked reluctantly, "Then I can always tell me what I have to say later, right?" ”
"You don't need to care about that."
"You ......"
Along the way, the two had a conversation like this.
Just when Kenneth felt that his mouth was dry, the carriage suddenly stopped, the door was opened and immediately closed, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in front of Kenneth, a flash of magic array light, and the appearance of the two changed dramatically, it turned out to be Emperor Rhaegar and Omistensen, and the officer immediately got up when he saw the comer, and saluted the two with a respectful face.
"I've seen Your Majesty, I've seen Lord Speaker, Kenneth Lancelot has brought."
Rhaegar glanced at Kenneth and nodded approvingly to the middle-aged officer, "Good work." ”
The middle-aged officer turned sideways and sat Rhaegar and Omi Statham opposite Kenneth, while he walked outside the carriage and sat side by side with the coachman to drive the carriage to the palace on the northeast side of Costello.
As for Kenneth, who was sitting in the car, he blinked, looking at the young man and the old man opposite him, if he remembered correctly, this red-haired man should be the current emperor, right?
And when Kenneth observed Rhaeggar, Rhaegar also looked at Kenneth from head to toe with understatement, his ordinary appearance obviously had the characteristics of a southerner, and the magician's robe on his body was slightly out of place on his burly body, and his body did not have the temperament that made his eyes shine, and the rough calluses on his hands also confirmed his identity as a peasant boy. The only conclusion that Rhaegar could come to was that he was just an ordinary country boy.
As for Omistensen, he took a nap on the back of his chair, and although Rhaegar was a young emperor, he was already a mature emperor, so he naturally had his own plans for this matter, and he didn't need to worry about it.
The silence lasted for about a minute, and Kenneth couldn't help but speak first, "Are you really the emperor?" ”
Rhaegar smiled: "It's like a fake." ”
Kenneth knew why the emperor would find him even if he was stupid, and what Sheryl said before, he understood that the emperor already knew his identity, so he bluntly revealed his identity and said: "The fire dragon hero, Kenneth Lancelot, has seen His Majesty the Emperor. ”
Rhaegar raised his eyebrows, for this straightforwardness, it was quite in line with Rhaeggar's temper, so Rhaegar said unabashedly: "I think you have heard the holy woman say my thoughts. ”
Kenneth frowned: "Sherrill only said that Your Majesty wants to protect us, and did not clearly state Your Majesty's true thoughts. ”
Rhaegar nodded, and was about to speak, but saw a flame suddenly burst out of Kenneth's fingers, and then transformed into a red-robed evil man, who was the fire dragon Hephaestus.
Hephaestus spends most of his time meditating in the Flame Dragon Ring, and according to himself, he is sorting out his memories, which is similar to Kenneth's situation, and Hephaestus receives memories that are hundreds of times more numerous than Kenneth, so he naturally needs more time to digest.
However, at this time, Hephaestus showed up without saying hello to Kenneth, which really startled Kenneth.
Also frightened by Hephaestus's appearance were Rhaegar and Omistenson, who took a deep breath after their pupils shrank, then got up and bowed respectfully to Hephaestus, "I've seen Lord Fire Dragon." ”
Hephaestus seemed to enjoy the respect that the two men had in front of him, and after sitting down beside Kenneth, he waved to them, "Sit down, don't you have something to say?" Go ahead. ”
Kenneth glanced at Hephaestus beside him and muttered to himself, "He can't show up on purpose to support himself, right?" ”
"You're right." But it was Hephaestus' voice that sounded in Kenneth's heart, "Even if it's the emperor on the other side, there's nothing to worry about, but don't embarrass me, well, lose the dragon?" ”
Kenneth's heart warmed, but he heard Rhaegar's voice sound, and the object was not Kenneth but Hephaestus: "Lord Fire Dragon, may I ask why you chose Kenneth?" ”
Kenneth was taken aback, but saw Hephaestus say to Rhaegar with an indifferent expression, "You don't need to care about this. ”
Kenneth couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, Hephaestus must have heard the conversation between the middle-aged officer and himself just now, right?
A hint of embarrassment flashed on Rhaeggar's face, but there was no anger, after all, sitting in front of him was a dragon that could change the fate of the human race, but his eyes couldn't help but dim a little when he swept Kenneth's smiling face, but he immediately hid it.
"Descendants of Xio, say what you think, do you want to be a hero again?" Hephaestus' crimson snake eyes were staring at Rhaeggar's eyes, and he said a word.
Omi Statham glanced at Rhaegar and continued to lean back in his chair and take a nap.
Rhaegar replied, "No, I will respect your choice. All I want to do is protect the four heroes. ”
"Oh? Really? Hephaestus said with a playful smile. He has watched the development of the human race almost so far, and has seen too many ugly things, and the hero undoubtedly poses an absolute threat to the authority of this emperor, and he actually said that he wants to protect them?
"However, I also have my own purpose," Rhaegar suddenly appeared in his eyes with a desire like a wildfire, and said in a deep voice, "I want to become the greatest emperor of the human race, the true king of the world!" ”
