Section 212, Tasks
Before the king's throne, Aryuzer was half-kneeling on the ground, waiting for the king's orders. At the same time, there is another mage standing by the king's side, and he is Arugo, the chief general of the Kingdom of Gilneis, a human mage who specializes in powerful magic.
"Aryus......" The king stood up, went up to Aryuzhe, lifted him up, and said kindly, "Come, stand up, and do not be so restrained." ”
"Ah, yes, Your Majesty." Flattered, Ariuzer hurriedly stood up, but as soon as he saw the majesty of the king's eyes, he unconsciously became nervous.
Although the relationship with Princess Gerald has been confirmed, for the lord of a country, the marriage of his only daughter involves too many interests, and it is impossible for the king not to weigh it. Aleuzer knew this very well, so he didn't dare to be careless until now.
The king looked at the young man in front of him, smiled slightly, and said, "Look, make you nervous." With that, he walked back to his throne and sat down, beckoning to Arugao. Seeing this, Arugao hurried over to the king and leaned his ear to listen. The king whispered a few words to him, waved his hand, and Arugao nodded, and walked away.
There were only two people left in the hall, Aliuzhe and the king, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little delicate, was it tense or relaxed?
“……”
Seeing that the king did not speak, Aliuzhe felt a little strange, swallowed his saliva, and took the initiative to ask, "The king...... Your Majesty, what task are you going to give me to accomplish? Please...... Express. ”
"Huh." The king did not seem to be in such a hurry, but asked him rhetorically, "Ariuzhe." Do you really love Gerald? ”
"Huh? I ...... "Ariuzhe never thought that the king would ask him this question so bluntly!" He hesitated, and suddenly felt a rush of blood rushing to his brain. I don't know how to answer. But soon, he came to his senses. He said very resolutely: "Your Majesty, I truly love Gerald!" Trust me! ”
"Hmm!" The king nodded and said, "Very well." I am happy. I'm a person who likes warriors with strong martial arts. If Gerald's husband is a brave warrior, I'm pleased. ”
Hearing the king's comment, Aleuzer felt that his heart was as sweet as honey. In this way, is this marriage ......
The king continued: "Arius, this mission is dangerous, and I did not wish to send you. However, you must understand that if you really marry Gerald, then it is my son-in-law, the future king of the Kingdom of Gilneis. You should know something about my character, right? ”
Arius had long heard that the king was upright and straightforward, so he said, "Yes." Your Majesty, everyone says that you are bold and straightforward. is a rare gentleman. ”
"Cut ......," said the king, waving his hand when he heard his flattering words, "don't say anything flattering." I'm for Gerald's marriage. I've been worried for a long time. You know what? During this period, the Griffin Kingdom, the Holy Light Kingdom, and the Iron Hammer Kingdom all had princes and nobles who sent people to propose marriage, and I suppressed them all. Do you know how stressed I am? ”
"Well......," said Ariuzhe, understood what the king was saying. He himself came from a poor background. has no background and can confirm a relationship with Gerald. It's almost a fantasy thing, but this kind of fairy tale event. It's really there!
It is certain that the status of a noble princess like Gerald will attract the coveted of other kingdoms. Generally speaking, the king's arrangement of the princess's marriage will take more political factors into account than the daughter's own judgment of love. The king's willingness to speak to Aryus face to face about these matters was in itself a highly unusual sign.
The king, seeing that Arius was preoccupied, seemed to understand that what he had just said had put a great deal of pressure on him, so he continued: "I must tell you these ugly things in advance. I hope you understand my struggle. ”
"Your Majesty!" When Arius heard the king say this, he thought that he might hope that he would retreat, and hurriedly said, "Believe me! I'll be able to do it. I will definitely not disgrace you and Gerald! ”
The king nodded and said, "Aryuzhe, don't be in a hurry. I'm not denying you and Gerald. If I had decided to separate you, I wouldn't have to spend so much time talking to you. Understand? ”
"Hmm!" Aliuzhe patted his chest and said, "Please tell me the mission!" I don't want to waste too much of your time! Everything speaks with strength, and let those people see that your choice is right! ”
"Good!" The king smiled knowingly and said, "I am not mistaken. Then he shouted outside the lobby door, "Arugao, you can come in." So, Arugao pushed the door open from outside the lobby and walked in. It seemed that he had been standing outside the door just now waiting for the king's order.
Arugao walked up to the king, bowed to him, and said, "Your Majesty, I am here." ”
The king pointed to Aryuzhe and said to Arigau, "Arouc, you are responsible for conveying the details of the mission to Aryuzhe. Remember, be sure to give his full support to his actions. Otherwise, you're the only one who asks! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Don't worry! Arugao listened to the king's order and bowed to him again.
The king stood up and said to Arius, "Arius, after this mission is completed, you will be qualified to marry Gerald." This is also the best way to convince the talkative ministers. Remember, you have to rely on your own strength to come back alive. If you die, or if you are injured and become disabled, I can only apologize. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" When Ariuzhe heard the king's words, he hurriedly bowed to him and said in a loud voice, "I will surely return safely!" The king said no more, and walked briskly out of the hall door, leaving behind Arugao and Aliuzhe.
Arugao glanced at Aliuzhe, snorted with a little disdain, and said to him, "Aliuzhe, your luck is really good. Uh-huh? ”
“……”
Aliuzhe knew that Arugao was usually a bit of a yin and yang person, and he didn't like to talk to him head-on, but now that the king took the initiative to keep the two of them, he must have arranged for Arugao to tell Arugao about Arugao's mission.
For Gerald's sake, endure it!
"Lord Arugao, please tell me the details of the mission." Cheering himself up, Arius took the initiative to say, "I hope that we can sincerely cooperate and accomplish the task of His Majesty the King together." ”
"Hmph." Arugao didn't talk directly, but snorted angrily, took out a map, handed it to Aliuzhe, and said, "All the details of the mission are already written on this map. This time, the mission is to go on a crusade against a group of demonic beasts. They have been roaming the country for a long time, and I have not been able to completely eradicate them. This time, I finally sent several troops to limit their range of activity to a fixed area. Now, it's your turn to pick the peaches. Hum. ”
“……”
Aliuzhe heard what he said, it turned out that the king had arranged for himself the opportunity to be rewarded for his meritorious deeds at a critical moment, which must have made Arugao really unhappy.
Indeed, those soldiers under Aru's master, when they surrounded and suppressed the demonic beasts, must have paid a lot of price, which would make anyone feel unhappy.
Thinking of this, Aliuzhe also felt a little embarrassed, so he said to Arugao: "Lord Arugao, I believe that His Majesty the King must have seen the contribution you have made to the kingdom. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked you to help me with this last step. ”
"Hehe, my mouth is so sweet." Arugao was amused by Aryuzhe's kind words, and said, "All right. You don't have to be nervous. There's no need for me to get along with you. The King has given us two a task, and I will help you to complete it. Now take this map back to the barracks, and hurry up and see the contents with your people. I have some business to do, and I need to get out of the way. If you have any questions, just come to me tomorrow morning and ask. The mission will start the day after tomorrow, so please be sure to be fully prepared. ”
After listening to Arugao's command, Aryuzhe bowed to him and said in a loud voice, "Yes! Lord Aruko! I'm ready for it! (To be continued......)
