Chapter Errors/Click here to report

The hall had become like a scarlet, blinding bloodstained Shura field, and the soldiers in red and white robes slowly crossed the corpses stacked on top of each other, and crossed the trickling stream of blood below, and the cold iron boots stepped neatly across the blood-paved viscous carpet to encircle the corner where Brando was.

The half-elf princess was still trying to break free of her wrist from Brando's pincer-like palm, she struggled for a while, but in vain, she quickly calmed down and asked in a cold tone, "Viscount Kadel, what do you want to do?" ”

Brando's somewhat panicked eyes put the blade of the Earth Sword as black as obsidian on Griffiin's neck, and watched the two approaching knights stop before replying, "Of course, it's to fight the way." ”

"Deus Ex?" Princess Griffiin glanced at the soldiers suspiciously, and in her mind, those people and Viscount Cader should be on the same footing.

Brando didn't explain much, he used his sword to silence the knight of Her Royal Highness and the female officer beside her, and then said: "If you don't want your Royal Highness the eldest princess to be harmed, just do as I say, you come with me, we retreat in the direction of the stairs and go up to the second floor." ”

Princess Griffiin didn't know what Viscount Cadell meant, so she snorted softly.

"Your Royal Highness, if Betice still has a chance to live, that's what you want, right? So I hope you can cooperate with me, and I believe that you are smart and calm enough to judge the pros and cons of the moment, and let us all die here. Nothing but good for your enemies—"

"Teacher ......"

Haruzer looked at him with some embarrassment, but was glared back by the latter.

The look on the eldest princess's face was unbelieving, and 'Kader' would suddenly change sides. She preferred to believe that there was another conspiracy. But Brando is at least right about one thing, Princess Griffiin has had been a suzhì as the finest politician ever since she first left the palace at the age of sixteen. She calmly analyzes the shape and accepts that it is not the worst option.

Personal emotions have always been an unattainable luxury for her, and sometimes her reason is like a sophisticated machine, stubborn and indifferent to herself, but she sticks to the hope in her heart. She once sacrificed one of her own qiē, so she has the eldest princess in history, whose fate has attracted the sympathy and sympathy of all Eruin players.

So for Brando's words, she did not refuse. But there was no approval either. That was enough, and Brando knew that Princess Griffiin hadn't given up on her vigilance, but he also knew that she wouldn't at least deliberately go against him.

The next step is to fight a bloody way, and he doesn't want someone behind him to be ready to stumble on him at all times.

He immediately led Princess Griffiin towards the stairs, and the eldest princess did not resist, but she watched with her eyes as the two wolf knights protected 'Edith'. Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief. For the eldest princess, as long as Edith can get out of here now, then the rest of the qiē doesn't matter.

In her plan, Enlek will become the biggest threat to the nobles because of the loss of the royal family, which will evolve into a confrontation over time. And then the curtain of war was opened. But the lords on that plateau are not as weak and bully as the royal family of Corcova, and the great war between the nobles will definitely end in defeat and compromise, and the imminent Mardala will not give up this precious opportunity, and the army of the undead will sweep through the scorched earth.

After that, the Cruz people would not want to face the advance of the Emperor with the mercury staff, so it was inevitable to support the resistance within Eruin.

As long as Bedice remains, there is hope for the kingdom to emerge from the scorched earth.

Although the ancient homeland was inevitably in flames, she could not care so much, and all she saw in her eyes was the raging flames, whether it was her, the Grand Duke of Anlek, or the greedy nobles, who would always drag the kingdom into the abyss.

She had no choice but to choose the better outcome.

Griffiin quietly felt the coldness of the blade around her neck, and calmly lowered her eyelids, but her heart was sad, and she looked back on her life as if she had always made the worst choice.

Every compromise seems to set the stage for the next failure.

For a moment, she suddenly wanted to go back in time, back to that year. She was only sixteen years old, and perhaps she should have chosen a different path, and the future of the kingdom would not be like this.

Brando seemed to be vaguely aware of the thoughts of Her Royal Highness the princess he was holding hostage, because it was originally part of his memory. Or perhaps he had the same desire in his heart, and it was this desire that made him willfully change the trajectory that was bound to decline that belonged to Eruin. 、

It was also because of the same desire that he firmly believed that he could leave this dream, and he already had his own answer in his heart.

He held Her Royal Highness the princess with one hand, and with a sweep of the horizontal sword in his right hand, he swept away the long swords in the hands of those soldiers who rushed up, and then he made a sword without any tricks, and the ordinary blade of the sword drew a straight line in the air.

The blade of the sword was flat, and before the soldiers had time to receive the block, they could only watch as the obsidian-like black blade sliced through the robes, the metal rings on the chain mail below, and the flesh and bones below, with a crisp sound, accompanied by countless broken metal rings, it was a striking rosy blood.

The color of the blood is like red wine, but darker.

With just a sword, seven or eight soldiers flew sideways, and they fell into the crowd and knocked more people away. Brando took a step to stop at the top of the stairs, but instead of going up first, he dragged Haruzer up, and waited for the two knights and female officers to rush over before turning around and covering everyone to move on.

Princess Griffiin seemed to come to her senses, and she looked at the scene in amazement: "What the hell do you want to do?" Viscount Kader? ”

This was the second time she had asked the question in a short period of time, but in a very different tone. Even though she still had doubts in her heart, she at least believed that Viscount Kader and An Lik were not in the same group.

"I said it." Brando stood at the top of the stairs and slashed a soldier with a sword from top to bottom, the blade slicing into the man's helmet like tofu. Blood gushes out of the cracks in the metal like a waterfall.

He drew his sword, kicked the corpse down, took a few steps up, and replied, "It's just a fight to get out of the encirclement." ”

"But you and Anlek—" The eldest princess frowned, the suspicion in her eyes was actually very clear, and the meaning of that sentence was: I don't think you would betray Anlek for the sake of Edith-

Some people will go out of their way for love, but Viscount Cadell is not one of them.

Because he was now Viscount Cadell, Brando had to accept that. Although this gap between identity and experience makes it difficult for him to speak. He knew that his choice might lead him to a dream forever, but he did it anyway, and at this time he really wanted to smile bitterly:

'Your brother is indeed attractive to look like a girl, but he is a man after all.

But Brando had a vague guess in his mind about another possibility. This may have made him take the princess and the rest of his entourage to the second floor, which he was familiar with, and the second floor of the hall led to the manor at the back, where there was a secret passage to the forest outside.

That forest. If he was not mistaken, it should be the forest where Viscount Cadell was assassinated. That was the forest where they had found the wagon.

Although it is completely incorrect in terms of orientation, the dream is so weird.

So the whole result of the dream should manifest there. As for whether to live or die, Brando didn't care so much. Sometimes, in the face of inner confusion, you have to take a gamble. And his confusion, Viscount Kadel's confusion, and the confusion in Haruzer's heart have long been entangled, and Brando still does not have a clear answer in his heart.

In any case, as long as you go down, you will see the end.

The two knights slammed open the closed wooden door on the second floor, and the black wooden door was of surprisingly good quality, and it was still basically maintained in its original appearance after being kicked out by two gold-level masters. Brando sent the little prince inside, then the two knights who protected him and the older lady, and Brando hesitated for a moment, finally deciding not to hold Princess Griffiin hostage, he let go of the eldest princess of Eruin and let her go in on her own.

Princess Griffiin was slightly stunned, and looked up at him with some incredulity.

"Viscount Kader?"

"I'll talk about it later." Brando turned, raised his right hand, and aimed the Afterwind Ring on his index finger at the stairs in the hall, from where the soldiers were rushing up. Then he opened his mouth and said...... A burst hurricane erupted from the ring and slammed into the curved staircase, the planks that made up the staircase first caved in, then broke in the middle, and was blasted open in a huge gap, turning into slower sawdust and falling one after another.

But again, there seemed to be a rain of blood in the hall.

Brando, who was still standing at the door, and Her Royal Highness the Princess had a lot of stains on her face, and Her Royal Highness looked at Brando, whose face was covered with blood, and asked, "Viscount Cader, are you really willing to give up a qiē for the sake of Edith?" ”

No, everything else is possible, but Brando swears it has nothing to do with that. He turned his head and saw Haruze, who was blushing to the root of his ears because of his sister's words not far away, sighed, and replied, "Your Highness Princess, I don't think now is the time to show your determination...... If I could, I would naturally help you take care of Your Highness, but our top priority is to get out of here. ”

But Princess Griffiin looked at him and shook her head: "You don't understand, I'm already a dead knot. I don't die, the contradictions between the nobles and Anlek will never rise to the surface, and this kingdom will only decline day after day, until it falls into the abyss of fire-"

"I will tie the knot, and I will untie it. I'm only worried about whether Edith will be able to discern what she's up to, and I want you to give me a definite answer, Viscount Cader. ”

Brando paused.

There is a rumor in history that Princess Griffiin once secretly contacted the Wind Elves to counter Anlek, and she asked the Elven envoys to bring a secret letter, but the news eventually leaked. aroused the murderous intent of the powerful Grand Duke. Shortly after, during the same banquet as this night, he instructed an Assassin to kill Her Highness and blame Madara for it.

But afterwards. No one could find any evidence of that - except for the blank letter.

Her Royal Highness asked the envoys to bring a blank letter. Some people suspect that this is the fault of the Cruz, but in fact, it was later discovered that the Cruz were behind the assassination, and even the Flame Sanctuary could not escape the relationship.

But all of a sudden, Brando suddenly guessed a different truth.

"The blank letter brought back to the Elven Court by the Wind Elf envoys. Just for you to force Enlek to make a plan, right, Your Highness the Princess? ”

Princess Griffiin looked at him with some surprise: "How would you know? Anlek already knows? No, no, if he knew, he wouldn't have chosen to do it-"

Brando didn't say a word.

Anlek was calculated.

The princess regent ended up putting her life into a trap for the old fox. What happened after that was exactly as she thought, the Eru Civil War, the Third War of the Black Roses, and Haruzer and Aylara got married. Establishment of the Eruin Resistance.

But he didn't feel relieved at all, but was angry that Her Royal Highness had not only calculated Anlek, but also concealed it from all the players who supported her. He will never forget the night the city of Menströs was on fire.

I can't forget the lonely look of my senior sister when she left.

He stared at Her Royal Highness the princess, and it was difficult to confirm in his heart whether what the other party said was true or false, because it was actually his own memory.

However, Brando calmly suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, because the negative feelings in the dream were all confused. The pale ghost lurking in the shadows manipulates people's hearts in order to make people lose themselves in their own out-of-control feelings.

Nowhere is this clearer than Brando.

He asked this in order to test Viscount Kader's feelings, as if he understood that the same dream was repeated in one qiē. Khader must have been through the same scene as he was, that is, the viscount must have had the same confusion in his heart as he did.

The information on the strategy is now useless.

Brando puts it aside, and just because he doesn't have a strategy doesn't mean he's going to be able to move an inch, and he's a good player firstly, and secondly he's got a lot more determined feelings. If he can't defend, then he's going to take the initiative to attack.

First of all, he needed to answer a question to himself: how did Viscount Khader answer his confusion back then?

And how will he answer?

Brando pondered for a moment and replied to Princess Griffyne, "Sometimes the right choice is not necessarily the right choice, Your Highness Princess. ”

"So what's right?" The eldest princess looked up at him in bewilderment, as if she had heard something from the viscount.

This question also echoed in Brando's mind, and it was the ghost of Viscount Cadell who repeatedly asked: how to choose what is the right choice?

Brando looked up and looked down to see the soldiers in red and white robes rising up from the smoke-filled hall. He retreated into the room and pulled the princess backwards.

Then he exhaled softly, as if to confirm the thought in his heart, and replied:

"People can't always be willful, but willfulness can be forgiven—"

When he replied, he felt a slight movement in his heart.

That's the emotion that belongs to Viscount Kader.

This pale ghost, who has been hiding himself in the shadows, the knight who lost his name in the mists of history, finally could not bear it anymore at this moment.

And as soon as he moved, Brando finally confirmed the answer to his question.

Found it.

Answer.

……

A person's dream is actually a subconscious self-suggestion. In a short period of time, Brando remembered more than once the parents he had met at the banquet, and his childhood self. These memories of his past haunted him like a nightmare, but at some point, he suddenly realized that it was not a mysterious being in the fog that tempted him to lose his mind.

On the contrary, what is most hidden in people's hearts turns out to be the opportunity for self-redemption.

The same goes for Viscount Kader.

He remembered again and again the visions of Brando's grandfather that he had dreamed of when he was in the Golden Magic Tree, and the disappointed look in his parents' eyes when they looked at him. Although he was drenched in cold sweat, he finally realized this:

This disappointment did not stem from his failure.

Self-willedness is actually forgivable.

But avoidance and self-fear cannot, and even lose the courage to challenge failure again. It was like a weak man holding a long sword in both hands, but he didn't dare to take a step forward without piercing the illusion in front of him.

He was the one who wavered with his sword.

That man was also once Viscount Kader.

Also Haruzer.

He could stab Princess Griffiin to death with a single sword, perhaps that was Viscount Kader's wish. But Brando finally realizes that it is definitely not his own.

If he had chosen so, he had chosen a compromise compromise. Just as once a person loses his courage, he loses his determination to break the illusion, and the person who loses the determination to break the illusion can only stay in the dream forever.

It was only at this moment in Brando's mind that he was truly sure of this, as if he felt the throbbing of Viscount Carder's feelings in his heart.

He could fully understand that feeling, which was fear and fear, confusion and jealousy. Because they made the exact opposite choice.

Cadell chose to compromise, leaving him in his mutilated dream.

But Brando's choice is to change this qiē willfully, willfully pursue his own heart, and willfully fulfill his ideals and beliefs.

If you give up, you're a failure.

Brando, as if he saw a poor figure flash in front of him, he took his sword in hand, and his faith had never been so strong in his heart. In front of him. The corridor suddenly collapsed layer by layer, and the scenery seemed to melt and turn into a lot of mist. After the fog parted, the Jinteng Palace seemed to be a crumbling sand, and the corpses of those soldiers and nobles disappeared with the wind. In the gravel, Brando even saw his parents, his childhood self, his senior sisters, and all the people of the Crimson Brigade, their faces melting into the mist, fading backwards and fading.

But the last glimpse remained in his memory forever.

Only Princess Griffiin, Haruzer, two knights and the older female officer were left by his side, and Her Royal Highness seemed to be unaware of the changes around her, she took Haruzer's hand and walked forward firmly.

His Royal Highness the Little Prince has fully understood what his sister is thinking at this moment. Although he still did not understand the meaning behind the sacrifice, the history that had taken place in the dream was like a heavy nightmare for him, and Haruzer bit his lip, his eyes filled with moisture, but he did not shed tears.

Many years ago, he remembered the time when his father was still alive on a summer night in the Kinten Palace, and he remembered that his sister had said to him: A man should not shed tears.

But all he remembered was crying because his knees were red from being taught in swordsmanship.

The fog parted heavily.

Behind that is a forest.

The stars in the sky are like the first night sky, the pine forests are rattling, the water is murmuring, and the distant firelight is gently shaking like a dream.

Brando remembers his childhood, and the air after summer nights is so fresh.

He took a deep breath, looked up, and saw the carriage in the woodland that was quietly parked there.

The door was open, revealing a corner of the long silver dress.

The beautiful maiden lay in the carriage with a black dagger stuck in her chest. She is beautiful, with pointed ears that tell her identity, but unlike Haruzer, she is a true elf.

Brando didn't speak.

But he already knew the other party's identity.
