Chapter 167: Chester's Decision
"Laer, it's okay anymore, you take the brothers to go first, I'll come here after I take care of it."
"But, captain, what do you mean by that?"
"It doesn't mean anything, you'll never hear it, Lal believe me."
Chester's brow furrowed tightly.
"But"
Ral was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Chester,
"It's an order! Larba Monto! ”
Chester's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Ral in no uncertain terms.
A week later, the Knights of all countries left Rainbow Island with the rebel prisoners, and the Knights of the Rose, led by Chester, returned to Stewart.
After that day, Chester didn't say a word about the encounter with the demons, and Ral didn't want to ask any more questions, thinking that this was the end of the matter. It wasn't until the fifth year after the birth of Princess Tia that the matter was turned over again. It seems that the princess had some accidents that year, but with the help of High Priest Medaril, she survived the danger unharmed. The day after that, Chester approached Lahr and told him something he would never forget.
"Lal, although I still don't want to believe it to this day, but the facts are in front of me, this country may become the place where the planet collapsed, and Lal didn't speak, let me finish speaking."
Chester stopped the puzzled Ral from asking, and continued,
"Do you remember the demon you met on Rainbow Island? He prophesied that our king would put the planet in danger in order to protect his children. At that time, I did not believe it, he said that the princess would be called by God in the fifth year after her birth, but the king would not make it public, because only the princess could save the world, and our king would not be willing to let his children take this risk."
Chester's painful forehead,
"Captain, really?"
"Yes, I went to the temple just now to inquire about the news, and all of this has become a fact."
"Do you believe that the king will not make this public in the future?"
Lal was also reluctant to believe a demon's prophecy.
"I don't know, it's just that if our king really gave up the whole continent for the sake of one person, then"
Chester clenched his fists, as if it was difficult to continue with the rest of the words.
"Ral, do you remember when I visited the Duchy of Dax three years ago?"
Chester took a deep breath and changed the subject.
"Remember, you brought several barrels of fruit wine to the brothers, and that guy from Pinnur was very drunk."
Ral recalls that time, and he can't help but have a warm smile on his face.
"Oh, yes, I met a woman in Dax at that time, and I already decided that she was the only woman in my life. Lal, I want to go back and take care of them and look into something by the way. I can't believe all the words of that demon, it's just that I need time, and our king needs time to take care of everything here for me."
Chester talked about his imminent departure, and there was a mist in his eyes.
"Captain! Do you really want to do this? Why don't we just ask His Highness and see what he decides? ”
Ral didn't expect Chester to leave, and anxiously came up with ideas.
"No, we just need to do our part, the king has his own judgment, I said, we all need time."
"Captain, will you come back?"
Lal knew Chester, and when he made a decision, he wouldn't change it easily.
"Maybe, Larba Monto! Don't be discouraged! Remember, you're the Vice-Master of the Rose Order! Knights of the Rose! A few people are coming! A few people are back! Reward hard work! Draw the knife!! Hahaha!! ”
Chester shouted the slogan of the Knights with tears and turned his back to Ral,
"Goodbye, old friend."
After that day, the position of the captain of the knights has been vacant, and Ral and the other members of the knights were convinced that Chester would return one day, and they waited and waited, and waited until today, for a whole ten years! Now the Knights are no longer the same team, the addition of fresh blood has given the entire Order a new lease of life, and Larbamonto has pale temples and wrinkles on his face that is no longer young. At this moment, Ral sat next to the stone statue, recalling the past, extremely tired, he also had a trace of retreat in his mind, but this idea came to mind, and he dispelled it, Lal laughed self-deprecatingly, thinking that he was really old, but what did his old friend Chester think at the moment, whether he had changed his original intention, or, never wanted to come back In fact, Lal Bamonto already knew the answer ten years ago, but he always had a glimmer of hope in his heart, although this hope will never be realized again. It's just that Ral won't know that Chester returned to Dax, when Alan was already a six-year-old adult, through a few years of getting along with Allen, Chester has already understood why King John made such a decision, only when he is a father, can he realize that children are his everything, if he is in that position, he will also go against God's will in order to protect his children. It's just that although he understands, Chester at that time is already inseparable from Allen and Martha, and this small family always touches his heart.
So he decided to stay, just to be a father of a child, a husband to a woman, and gave up the position of the head of the strongest knight order under the king, maybe in the eyes of many people, Chester is a complete fool, but only he himself, who has experienced the ups and downs of life, will feel that all this is worth it, very worthwhile.
The second floor of the underground palace
"Hey, hey! Wake up! ”
Sblaise raised his eyes slightly, and saw Bulge's hairy face, which was now magnified in front of him.
"Ouch!"
Bulgi was pressed in the face by Sbraith's big hand and pushed away,
"My face! My handsome nose has been squashed by you! You thorny monster! ”
Bulgi combed the hair on his face, as if enjoying himself.
"What are you trying to do with this close?"
Sbrath rested for a while, feeling that his physical strength had gradually recovered, and he was just recovering from a serious illness, but he really couldn't withstand the long toss, especially with the brothers.
"The guitar just wants to see if you're okay, you're sitting there with a pale face, motionless, we thought you"
Bulgar didn't continue, because Sbreth's expression was already cloudy, and he really didn't dare to continue.
"I said, to save that big man, I need to take a break, what, you think I'm dead?"
Sbreth checked the position and condition of the thorns in his palm again,
"You don't have to look at me with such an expression, and I don't want to be more involved with you, otherwise it will be a loss of face for the king to be dragged down by you."
"I said, you're not a bad person, why do you always talk with thorns!"
Carly crossed her hands on her hips and trembled.
