"Ni ......"

Looking at Gavin II, who was walking towards him step by step, the tavernkeeper's face was full of surprise, but it was just pure surprise, without any fearful expression, seeing His Majesty the King appear here, the soldiers standing around knelt down on one knee, and until the second walked in front of the innkeeper, he did not react, just when everyone felt strange, a surprising scene appeared, the tavern owner just stood up straight and gave a military salute, and then, with an undisguised sharp gaze, Looking at the second king in front of him as if scrutinizing, he said in a deep voice: "Good evening, Your Majesty, can you please explain what you are doing now?" ”

Feed...... Does this person really know who he is talking to? It is true that he may have been a general or a high-ranking officer, but it is true that the king of Demacia is standing in front of him, and no matter how many meritorious deeds he has had, is it really appropriate to speak to his own king?

"What to do? Of course it's to come here for a drink, and it's weird that I'm going to find a tavern in my own country to have a drink? ”

"You ......" Even though he was questioned by the other party like this, the second seemed to be completely angry, he just shrugged his shoulders, tilted his head slightly and even replied with some cuteness, seeing such a picture, the tavern owner first widened his eyes, then tensed his lips, and finally, he couldn't help but smile, patted the arm of the second (one) (book) (reading) novel ybdu smiled helplessly and said: "You are now the father of two young men no matter what, is it really appropriate to do this?" ”

"What's the difference? Anyway, in the eyes of a few of you, I'm no different from back then, am I? The second didn't care, just pointed to the tavern and said, "I'm really thirsty after waiting here for a long time, is there anything to drink?" ”

"Of course, please come in, if memory serves, you haven't been here in a long time." The tavern owner owes a debt and takes the initiative to open the door of the tavern, and the second only smiles, and follows in as if no one else is around, and the soldiers who were hanging aside look at each other inexplicably, although they don't quite understand what is going on, but since the king doesn't mind, he doesn't seem to have any need to care......

……

"You seem to be busy lately, what happened to make you like this? You're a decade younger than me, so you look more mature than I am. The tavern owner poured his wine and looked at himself in the mirror, and it was clear that the blonde hair pleased him, but he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the extra few gray hairs on the second head.

"Pedro, you guy...... Are you laughing at me when you're embarrassed to say that, after you retired, your job was to talk and laugh in this tavern every day, and I had to deal with so many things every day? The second glared at him with some dissatisfaction, yes, this tavern owner named Pedro was one of Chad's subordinates back then, and he had a good friendship with the second, after retiring, Chad became the governor of Debang, and he gave his pension to Pedro, and Pedro turned the money into this shield sword tavern, and an enchanted blacksmith shop opposite.

"Ridicule? Hey, you're underestimating yourself, remember that when Lord Lightshield was your age, he looked much better than you. “

Pedro just said casually unintentionally, but when he mentioned the Jiawen Light Shield, which is Jiawen I, the second was still obviously stunned, he lowered his head, as if he was drunk, staring at his reflection in the cup carefully, and after a while, he smiled indifferently and drank the glass of wine: "Father...... Indeed, I remember that no matter how busy my father was, he always found some time to spend on his interests, and those things were always properly resolved, and sure enough, I still couldn't do what my father did......"

"Hey, are you complaining? You know better than us when Your Excellency Shield is working hard, stop complaining about this, do you want another drink? “

Did the two talk like this, and the content is nothing more than something inconsequential, if you don't consider the identities of these two people, this is just a chat between ordinary friends, the previous tension is gone, after a few rounds of drinking, both of them have been slightly drunk, maybe because they talked about the past, the second inadvertently said this: "It seems to be very deserted here tonight, what about those old guys?" Don't they come for a drink often? “

That's right, seeing the symbol of this sword and shield, those retired soldiers will not fail to understand what it means, those retired veterans who live nearby often come here to have a drink, and in their spare time, Gavin II will also come here to drink some, but now, when the second asks such a question, Pedro's face can't help but change, why is it so cold and ......? The person who knows the answer to this question best is the person sitting in front of him: "You...... Are you sure you want to ask this question? “

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the tavern instantly cooled, and the cup that the second was about to bring to his lips stopped instantly, and he raised his head to look at Pedro, and there seemed to be some disappointment in his eyes: "So...... Are you blaming me, too? “

"Blame? No...... I don't blame you, at least for me, but for all your other people, they don't. Pedro sighed softly, he could understand how much pressure was on the second, but for ordinary people, it wasn't necessarily the case.

"That's right...... They really don't think so, they must think it's my problem...... But...... But will they understand? Being deceived by the people you trust the most...... Will they understand this feeling? “

Was it because Reginald left with those magicians? Pedro heard about this from Chad and at first he didn't understand what Reginald was doing, but later, he also understood his choice a little: "So you think that His Excellency Reginald betrayed you?" “

"No...... I can't think so, I understand...... For the Mentor, destroying the continent of Narsa is his inability to forgive his sins, and protecting this last continent with his own hands may be the only way for him to atone for his sins, but ...... He's just a magician, and I'm a king, and we're not destined to be on the same page, and even from my point of view, his choices don't have anything to blame at all, so how can I blame him......"

When he said this, Gavin II clenched his fists, he bowed his head deeply, and it looked like he was almost lying on the table, Pedro knew that what he said was not false, but since he understood the truth, why was he so painful: "Since you don't blame him, then who betrayed you?" “

"No...... I don't blame him, but ...... I can't agree with this kind of parting, if he told me what he thought beforehand, I wouldn't care like that, all I wanted was for him to tell me...... This...... That's not too much, isn't it? “

"You just want that?"

With a squeak, another figure walked into the small tavern, and when he saw his appearance, a smile appeared on Pedro's face, and he knew that perhaps the only person who could untie the knot in the second heart appeared: "Good evening, sir, do you want a drink?" ”

Sir......? Hearing this title, the second immediately sat up straight from the table, the person who appeared behind him was none other than Chad, who came here after receiving the notice from Phyllis, he had heard all the conversations just now, which made him feel glad that the young man in front of him had not really lost his mind, all he needed was that he needed someone to wake him up: "I can understand your thoughts, but I want to say that although your request is not excessive, but for a smart person like Reginald, And how did he feel? ”

"How does he feel......? Teacher, I don't understand what you mean. ”

"Reginald is a man who has lived for centuries, and he has served you and your ancestors for centuries, even if he is only a magician, has he not had any feelings during these hundreds of years in Demacia? What's more, he is a person who has watched you grow up, so he chose to leave like this, don't you think he won't feel sad? Chad walked over to the second and sat down, and continued.

"You mean...... Does he have his own struggles? ”

"That's right, let's just say it, if he really told you what he thought, firstly, out of personal feelings, you wouldn't agree to such an approach, and secondly, from a king's point of view, you wouldn't allow such a thing to happen, this level of human sophistication is just a very obvious thing to him, His Excellency Reginald did not betray and conceal your thoughts at all, just to carry out his choice, so he had to do it, although he took away a lot of magicians, but the same, Noxus also lost a lot of magicians, and I think this is also the result of his negotiations with Lalivash, as a king, you should be more considerate of the feelings of your people, right? ”

He really became like this because of Reginald's departure, looking at the eyes of Gavin II gradually changing from confusion to soberness, Chad couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly appeared here and really did everyone a great favor, as long as he could untie his heart knot, he could avoid all the battles and the sad situation of swords facing each other......
