Act 321 The Battle of the Holy White V

The cyan rider galloped along the slope, Bunid's scaly-gloved hand grasping the reins tightly and turning back on his horse, and in the direction north of Ampesel, several huge gates of light were opening on the horizon, from which countless armies were pouring out, densely packed like ants.

"In another half an hour, the full formation of the Blackblade Legion will appear on the battlefield of Ampesel, and the Cruz will intervene."

"My lord, what do you think?"

The Commander of the Highland Knights watched solemnly as small black dots rose from the horizon—it was the Wyvern Brigade of the Blackblade Legion—and in an instant, the sky was obscured and the sun was heading straight for Ampesel.

This amount...... There are far more than the Blackblade Legion, and it seems that the Temple has completely deviated from neutrality, and the nobles of the north and the power hidden in Eruin by the Temple have fallen to the Grand Duke of Siphah.

The Cruz people want to solve the problem once and for all.

He turned his head and looked at his men, "What do you think?" ”

"The Highland Knights have been waiting for this day for a long time, my lord."

"A qiē is like that prophecy, my lord, and we trust your judgment."

"The kingdom tried to forget the war, but the veterans never forgot the jì for a day."

"Because it's a promise."

……

"Because it's an agreement," said the bronze dragon Leto, looking at the dark and dreary waters off Tonigel, and quietly to Kuran beside him—the situation in the north was tense day by day, perhaps today, maybe yesterday, and the young lord must have begun to carry out his plan in Ampesel—he turned around:

"On the high ground, the knights never forget the promise they made with others."

"So, you found out from the beginning." Curran asked.

"That swordsmanship is unique," replied Leto, "besides, a veteran has his own pride, how can he obey a child's orders at will, even if the other party is a noble—"

"Besides, didn't you recognize it in the first place?"

"Half-century of war," replied Courland, "has brought upon Eruin the great calamity that continues to this day, the total degradation of the nobility since the Second Revival." It's just a façade, but in the end, there's still no hope......"

"Even people like Reald are scared," Leto sighed, "his prestige that day." It can be said that it is second only to the marshal. However, I do not agree with him, and just wanting to preserve Eruin is itself the foundation of betrayal of this kingdom. ”

"Eru because of what he is doing zài."

"Because I yearn for glory."

"So what was that mystery back then?" Curran asked.

"No one knows," Leto shook his head, "and those who know are no longer above this world." Perhaps Lord Tulaman knew something, but he also left the kingdom because of it. ”

"Actually, I have a guess."

Leto looked back and looked curiously at his former comrade.

"Before I was put on trial, the Marshal once asked me a question," Curran took a deep breath, "What is the truth of history?" ”

What is the truth of history?

……

"So." Brando couldn't help but look around inexplicably and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"I thought you'd ask this question a little later, my lord." Charles smiled awkwardly and replied. Brando stared at him coldly, not giving the guy a chance to play tricks.

"Actually, the answer is very simple," Charles stammered after glancing at Her Royal Highness, "as if you may have guessed part of the answer, my relationship with you is that of the Highland Knight and his mage squire." ”

"Charles."

"Nope. My lord. I'm not kidding you. ”

Brando was slightly stunned, and his mind was like a bolt of lightning in the darkness, instantly igniting something. He looked up and saw Charles looking at him with a serious attitude.

"That's right, my lord, you're a true highland knight." Charles smiled slightly. Laughing a little evilly, "I've never lied." There is a destiny in the underworld. ”

"It can't be, Charles. You're kidding. Brando suddenly felt that there must be something wrong here, "We're not ......"

He was a little tempted to say the word "Traveling Mage", but when it came to the end, he found that it was so difficult to speak.

"Looks like you get it, my lord. I remember you asked me what a card is, and that's what I answered you - a card is a manifestation of rules, a collection of concepts, just like you can summon Charles with the Highland Squire card, and you can summon Medisa with the Silver Elf Knight, because we both have a close connection with you. ”

"The world of the traveling mage is a reflection of the laws of the world. However, history and cause and effect are also a kind of law. Charles replied in his mind.

"But what does it matter, I can't be a Highland Knight......" Brando felt a little unacceptable, as if someone had sued him that a lie could eventually become true after being repeated many times, which was a bit subverting his values. Because he knows better than anyone who he really is.

He's Sophie, he's Brando, he's not even a nobleman, he's a game nerd, he's just a fool with heroic dreams. He had nothing to do with the world in his previous life, and he was only the son of a miller in this life.

The only thing he had to do with the aristocracy was probably his mother, who was a native of Kadirego.

He froze suddenly.

How did the people of Kadirego leave the Karasu Heights? They have been nobles in the Highlands for generations, and they have been married to the Highland knights for generations, and how could his mother marry Pragues? He had avoided thinking about his family for the rest of his life, and probably remembered his grandfather who had fought in the November War.

But it wasn't until after the Golden Tree that this qiē was cut off, and he deliberately didn't disturb Brando's peaceful life in the past.

Today, however, it was as if all of this qiē had come back together to form something that he could not ignore.

Charles looked at him, "-From a certain point on, you have become a true Highland Knight, Lord Lord, you should understand that. ”

"No," Brando shook his head, "I still don't understand." Even though I may have some connection with the Highland Knights, as far as I know, the Highland Knights' legacy is by no means so ......"

"Yes." Charles smiled mysteriously, "Lord Lord, you might as well think about it, why did you summon me?" And the legacy of the Highland Knights. And how? ”

This is hard to say to Blando, the words of the Highland Knights, inscribed on the ancient stone slabs of the Calasu Plateau, have been sung for generations, and have been told by many travelers and poets alike. And as a player. He remembered it even more clearly - the Highland Knights had been passed down from generation to generation, and the blood link was indissolvable, and he had embarked on this path from the moment his descendants took over the sword of their ancestors.

But before he could finish reading this sentence, he suddenly froze.

His face turned white.

The sword in his hand also fell to the ground with a 'dang' sound.

Charles smiled silently.

'Besides, my swordsmanship is not bad. This is not my boasting, the old man of the non-commissioned officer personally praised me, saying that my swordsmanship is the best among our cadets this year. ’

My bedroom door was not far from me, and thanks to Lord Martha, I only had to rush out a few more steps to see my sword lying there quietly. ’

'That sword is also one of my family heirlooms, and my grandfather used it in battle, and it is said that he was a knight's squire for a time, and this sword was given to him by the knight lord—'

The sword should be thirty-two years old. The sword has the mark of ivy on it. It commemorates the victory in the battle for the Golan-Elsen plateau. ’

I remember that year His Majesty changed the format of the cavalry longsword, changing the length of the sword from the original two arms to one and a half arms, and the bronze ornament on the gauntlet was also replaced with a regular iron flower, in order to save costs and adapt to the longer and longer 'November War'.

Brando couldn't hear anything clearly, only felt a boom in his head. It was as if something was exploding. He closed his eyes, and in his heart he just felt like a complete idiot.

What a thirty-two year sword. What a fool to commemorate the victory in the battle of the Golan-Elsen plateau. He participated in the Golan-Elsen Plateau Campaign. Isn't that the Highland Knights? He should have remembered this qiē, but he was deliberately ignored and misled by Brando's memory. I forgot the most important point.

Brando stayed for a long time before he finally came to his senses. Fortunately, he still had the other half of his soul in his body, which made him not unacceptable to this fact, in fact, on the contrary, he quickly calmed down - after scolding Brando, the big fool, he looked at the whole thing with Sophie's eyes, and then it became simple and clear.

He looked up at Charles, Overwell, Nimesis, and Her Highness the Princess, and it seemed that these were the only four people present who knew the truth.

But why these four people, it's a bit of a joke. Brando gathered his thoughts for a moment before asking, "So, it seems that my grandfather is not just a veteran of the unknown November War, as he said?" ”

Brando wasn't stupid enough to think that Her Royal Highness would know every veteran of the November War, and judging by her and Overwell's previous reactions, it was very likely that her grandfather still had a big background. Linked to the words of the head of the Highland Knights, Bunid, Charles's identity is also extremely suspicious.

Brando suddenly became annoyed, and dared to hide the whole thing from him alone, although this kid has indeed been stupid and cute in the past twenty years, but in any case, this plot still makes him feel a little bloody.

So now, he needs an answer.

"You don't know?" Princess Griffiin was slightly stunned, but she immediately reacted: "The marshal really obeyed the agreement and did not reveal a word to outsiders. ”

She looked at Charles to the side, "Mr. Charles? ”

Charles couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Actually, this is a misunderstanding, but in fact, since I came back into this world that day, I have understood that Alice of the twin goddesses is really weaving the fate of this world with threads-"

"Like I said, there is a destiny in the dark."

"Marshal?" Brando seemed to hear an inexplicable word, as far as he knew, Eruin had never had such a rank, position, title, or knighthood, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"My lord, as you might have guessed, your grandfather was never an unknown person." Charles sighed before replying.

Brando was silent, he had actually expected this, his grandfather's swordsmanship was extraordinary, how could it be that a veteran could have. Leto was also a veteran of the November War, but he was a far cry from his grandfather.

It's funny that Brando has been thinking that his grandfather is only a little better at swordsmanship for nineteen years, which makes him a little crying and laughing.

The most ridiculous thing is that Brando never knew what his grandfather's name was, but when the old man was still alive, everyone around him called him 'Old Jolus'. But this is apparently a pseudonym, and Brando's memory never had a famous name overlapping with this one.

Sure enough, Charles continued: "Actually, this qiē has to start with the Highland Knight, just as you expected, Lord Lord—your grandfather was a real Highland Knight when he was young, and you also have the blood of the Highland Knight in your body. ”

"And at that time, he had a mage attendant named Charles? Pylosh. ”

"Ahh Although Brando had expected it, he couldn't help but take a light breath: "Charles? Pylosh ...... Shire? Pyrox, Charles, are you the mage of the House of Pyrox? ”

Charles nodded.

"Pyros is the most prominent title among the wizards of the Tower, and their lineage is the closest to that of the Silver People, so you don't want to sue me, my grandfather, or my surname Cardilloso?"

Princess Griffiin interjected, "Mr. Charles, he's not lying, Brando, your grandfather is a descendant of one of the most illustrious families of the Highland Knights - his real name is supposed to be Darus?" Cadilloso, as it is often called...... Earth Sword Saint Darus ......"

Brando felt like he was listening to a legend at that moment, but this time he experienced it firsthand. In that distant memory, the kingdom was at the height of the Second Restoration, and Eruin had three powerful men who had reached the Extreme—Darus, the Sword of Earth, Ghorecais, the Land of Destiny, and Tulaman, the scholar of Castle Mithril.

But Brando never dreamed that the most famous of the three would be his grandfather.

He stared blankly at Her Royal Highness the Princess and Charles.

Charles couldn't help but smile bitterly again: "Lord Lord, but in fact, your grandfather has another name - he is glorified by this name, and he is also lost by this name - the dragon of Harasg, the marshal of the Flame Templar coalition in the First Holy War......"

……

"So," Culan asked, at last, "you wrote a letter to Bunid?" What did you accuse him of in your letter? ”

Leto nodded, looked in the direction of the sea, and after a while, replied, "I only asked him if he remembered the dragon of Harasg." ”

"Haha," Kuran suddenly laughed, "Of course I remember." ”

"How can you forget?" (To be continued)
