Chapter 25: The Visit of King Leoric
The soldiers, who had just thought that Aidan would win, were stunned by the reversal of the situation in the blink of an eye. In their eyes, Liszt, who had been firmly suppressed, suddenly flashed in shape, and then used a tidal wave of attacks that he couldn't see clearly, and Prince Aidan, who had just gained the upper hand, was powerless, and it didn't take long for Prince Aidan's sword to fall to the ground.
Leorik was about to turn around and go back to the cabin after seeing Aidan have the upper hand, but in his opinion, the outcome was already doomed, and there was no point in looking down. But as soon as he turned around, there was a sound of exclamation and Ding Lingdang's weapon intersecting behind him. This puzzled Leoric, and he hurriedly turned his head, only to find that Liszt had raised it, and the sword in Aidan's hand was gone.
Leorik rubbed his eyes, patted Lazarus, who was also shocked, and asked, "This, what the hell is going on?" Is this an illusion? Why did Aidan suddenly fail? ”
Lazarus watched the whole process of the duel, and the shock in his heart was only a lot more than that of Leoric, and while he told Leoric the whole process of the duel, he secretly considered the necessity of changing the plan in his heart, "This is a variable, we must pay attention to it, try to see if we can pull him into the master's camp, but we can't startle the snake." Lazarus thought secretly.
Leorik listened to the archbishop's narration full of shock and admiration, but he still couldn't believe that there was such a warrior. "How come I have never heard of this warrior's name before, how can such a brave and good warrior be unknown? Quick, guard, invite that warrior to my room, I want to get to know this hero! Leorik hurriedly ordered the guards beside him, but as soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and changed his mind, "No, you don't have to go, Lazarus, come with me to visit this warrior, I believe you are also curious about this young man!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, I also think that we can show our respect for this warrior by going together." Lazarus agreed.
With that, Leorik let the guards lead the way, and hurried to the room of Liszt and the minister Aemon.
Liszt returned to his room, the battle had been a simple warm-up for him, and Minister Austin Eamonn had been studying economic policies in his room these days, so he did not know what was going on outside. Seeing Liszt come in, Austin smiled and said, "Come back, young man, isn't life on the ship particularly boring?" ”
Liszt replied a little helplessly: "That's true, I can't let go of my hands and feet to train on the ship. ”
Liszt and Old Man Austin had known each other for a long time. Four years ago, when Austin returned to Kaltim for his grandson's wedding, he learned that his son had adopted a godson, which was a double blessing for Austin, who loved children. Although Austen returned a month before leaving, he and Liszt hit it off at first sight, often talking about their views on the world and the future together. Later, Liszt also passed by Kurast a few times because of the employment mission, and visited Austin's grandfather by the way, so in the past few years, Liszt has been acting as a messenger for the Aemon family.
"Don't worry, in two days we'll be there, you see, the waves of the Twin Seas are starting to get fierce, which means that we are close to the Twin Straits." Austin smiled and comforted.
Liszt nodded, and was about to do unconscious training, when suddenly someone knocked on the door, which is not common. Liszt thought, "Sure enough, if you are in the limelight, you will attract attention, but it is too boring." ”
"Please come in!" Austin put away the books on the table and looked at the door curiously.
The door was opened, and Leorik and Lazarus entered the room one after the other, greeting the owner of the room with a smile on their faces: "Don't come unharmed, my minister, are you still working on your plan?" ”
Austin didn't expect the arrival of the king, and the archbishop, hurriedly stood up, saluted, and said: "May Arakaat bless you, Your Majesty, and the archbishop, please take a seat!" Austin hurriedly set out his chair and gave way to the two distinguished guests.
"Don't bother, my minister, sit down. We're not here for you this time! Leorik laughed and said, his eyes fixed on Liszt, who was saluting from the side.
Liszt knew that he had been noticed by King Leoric, but he didn't expect him to come in person, with the suspicious archbishop.
"May the light of Arakat shine on you forever, Your Majesty, Your Archbishop." Liszt said. In front of these two people, he must disguise himself as a devout believer, or else he will be in big trouble.
"You're the warrior you were just now, Liszt, sit down, sit down, hahahaha, Austin, you don't know what's going on!" Leorick hurriedly sat Liszt, looked at Austin in the clouds on the side, and said with a laugh.
"The old minister really doesn't know, this ......"
"Then you're going to regret it! Just now, Mr. Liszt and my son Aidan had a competition, who would have thought that Liszt would easily defeat my son, not that I am exaggerating, my son Aidan is recognized as a powerful warrior, even in the face of tall and powerful barbarians. Austin, this is your dereliction of duty, such a powerful warrior, you are still hiding, to be a full-time guard for yourself, if you want me to say, his strength, even if he is a guard for our Hakan Emperor, it is more than enough! King Leorik said grumblingly.
Austin had long heard his son Roland talk about Liszt's extraordinary, but he had never seen it himself, and he only regarded it as his son's love for the house and Wu. I didn't expect Liszt to be so powerful, he had seen Aidan compete with the royal guards in the court, and his earth-shattering jump was really no match.
"Could it be that you are mistaken, Your Majesty? I don't really know much about the strength of this kid of mine, you know, I've been in Curast and rarely go back. Austin stammered.
"It's my negligence, so many years, hard work for you, Austin." Leorik suddenly realized, stood up and saluted Austin, which moved Austin, "But I'm not mistaken, the archbishop is not wrong, the duel between the two has been seen by people outside, if you don't believe it, you can just find someone to ask." Leorik laughed.
"That is the case, the old minister believes in you, but the old minister has also seen the strength of His Royal Highness Aidan, if anyone can easily defeat His Royal Highness Aidan, the old minister really can't believe it." Austin also said with a wry smile.
"Hahahaha, I understand you, I know my son better than you, if I hadn't seen my son defeat with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." Leorik sighed.
"Even the paladins of the Church will not behave better than His Highness Aidan, Your Majesty." Lazarus said with a smile.
"You're right. Mr. Liszt, you have really opened our eyes today! Leorick looked at Liszt, who was a little thin, and said with admiration.
"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, Your Majesty can call me Liszt. It's just that he has more experience in actual combat and took the lead in finding a flaw, so he is not an opponent if he confronts His Royal Highness the prince head-on. Liszt said modestly, but in terms of strength, Liszt is indeed inferior to Ai Dan, but this does not mean that Ai Dan is better than Liszt.
"You are modest, Liszt," said Leorick with a smile, "and there is no need to make excuses for that stinky boy of Aidan, and thanks to you for teaching him a good lesson this time, otherwise his tail would have been raised to the sky!" ”
Leorick looked at the pampered Liszt, and his heart spoke more highly of him, so he said the true purpose of his trip: "Liszt, I appreciate your ability, join my imperial guard!" ”
