(The crimping is successful.) ）

Arian Hurd squinted, discerning direction on horseback. After a moment's hesitation, she finally remembered the location of the village. The female knight gently tugged on the reins, and the mount, which had already been connected with her heart, did not need a whip, and let go of its hooves and began to gallop.

In this season, after leaving the snow white all over the ground, General Winter has already left satisfied. Only the gentle breeze of the spring breeze blew softly on the earth, and Arian Hurd beat his horse through the babbling brook that had just begun to thaw, and the hooves of the horses crushed the newborn green grass. The knightess paused, looked up at the clear blue sky overhead, lovely white clouds blowing from the north, and sunlight spilling lazily through the gaps in the clouds. The javelin-like trees also quietly began to sprout, and the newborn fawn had no idea of the dangers of the world, blinking at this strange stranger with big round eyes.

The knight did not stop, she rode her horse and walked slowly along the winding path in the woods. The lovely little deer followed the knight for a while, and when he saw that the knight had not made any special move, he jumped away.

What a peaceful land, who would have thought that a few months ago, this land was still devastated by the northerners? It seemed that she had made the right decision to come to Desmond. Although far from his hometown, it is also a good choice to live in this quiet land.

Arien Hurd walked the path through the woods, crossing the small wooden bridge in front of the village. In her memory, after crossing the bridge, it should be a village. Because of the safety reasons, the village is extremely cleverly hidden, and outsiders must not find that small village lightly. Even Arien Heard, who had been here once, without the guidance of the locals, was no different. Luckily, on the bridge, Arian Heard ran into an acquaintance.

Arian Hurd stared at the purple-haired girl in front of her, barefoot and carrying a small basket, and asked with some uncertainty, "Your name is Cornelia, right?" ”

"Ah, Lord Alfred, you remember me!"

Standing in front of Arian Hurd was a beautiful girl. A girl with purple hair and purple eyes, although her body has not fully grown. But like the willow of the early spring, it has begun to exude that tender vitality. Under the shabby cloth clothes, the small hill is already faintly visible.

The purple-haired girl was visibly happy when she heard Arian Hurd's words. The little face, which looked dull because of the long-term lack of nutrition, also showed a bit of brilliance. Just because she remembered her name, it seemed to make her happy all day: "Is Lord Arian Hurd here again today?" It's been a long time since you've been here. ”

It's hard for her to remember Arian Heard's awkward surname.

Arian Heard didn't know how to deal with such an energetic little girl, and speaking of which, she and this girl had only met once. It was said that they were acquainted, but when Cornelia looked at her, Arian Hurd saw the familiar light in the girl's eyes—the light of longing. It is not a yearning for aristocratic rights, but a pursuit of that noble spirit.

Skywalker may not be able to be a great king like his brother. But when he only relied on the faith in his chest, held a worn-out one-handed sword, rode his lean horse, and eradicated evil in all parts of the empire. The seeds of chivalry, called chivalry, were also sprinkled in all corners of the empire. Great as empires, it has also collapsed. But that pure will, despite countless tribulations, has always been praised by people. It is not surprising that girls have such eyes. Becoming a great knight is probably the dream of most teenagers. Although as we grow older, this dream will gradually wear away, and eventually only a faint sigh remains.

Just like the young Arian Hurd.

Arian Hurd had a good impression of this girl, who was unusually similar to her in some way, but the female knight, who was not very sociable, finally said flatly: "Well, I recently went out with Lord Sinloth. ”

"Ah, with the lord."

The lively girl didn't know what to think, and her little face flushed: "It's so good that you can see Lord Sinloth all the time." ”

After that Autumn Harvest Festival, the evaluation of Sinloth in the realm has completely changed. Because of his appearance, because of his kindness, because of his bravery, because of his gentleness, in short, this young man from the royal capital is completely in line with the image of Prince Charming in the heart of any commoner girl.

It's so nice, pure girl. To like is to like, without any disguise.

Arian Heard wanted to talk to the girl more, but thought that she was still carrying the lord's orders, and that she would have to go somewhere else. The blonde knight shook her head regretfully, and the knight coughed twice, interrupting the purple-haired girl's thoughts.

"Cornelia, take me to the village, Lord Sinloth has orders to convey."

"Ahh The girl was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses. Could it be that the girl's eyes flashed with some kind of worry, she plucked up her courage and asked in a low voice, "Lord Alfred, is it possible that the tax will be raised again?" ”

Although the tax collector is long gone, the nightmare he left behind is obviously not dissipated in a day or two. The tax collector and his minions were the second most terrifying depositary in Desmond besides the northerners.

Arian Hurd understands the girl's concerns, isn't that what the country nobles like the most? In various names, the taxes in the territory are increased at will.

Sinloth wouldn't do that, though. If it weren't for the fact that some blonde treasurer nearly hanged himself in front of him, he wouldn't have collected so many taxes in his domain. Abolishing the agricultural tax is one of the lords' goals.

"Not really, it's something else."

"That's good, Lord Alfred, I'll help you lead the horse, shall I?"

Arian Hurd understood the girl's thoughts, and just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with her horse more. The female knight did not hinder her, and handed the reins in her hand to the expectant girl. Finally, the knightess reassured her companion so that she would not hurt the purple-haired girl.

After taking the reins from the female knight, the vitality seemed to return to the girl. The girl smiled, took the reins of Arian Hurd, and walked forward with the female knight.

"I knew that a person as good as the lord would not raise taxes on us indiscriminately like the tax collector who should go to hell ten thousand times!" At the mention of the tax officer, Cornelia snorted a few times before continuing, "By the way, Lord Alfred, what kind of order does the lord want to give this time?" ”

"Master Sinloth is going to recruit a group of maids, and also, to open a Sunday school."

"Sunday school?"

"Yes, Sunday School."

There weren't many maids in Desmond Castle, and this Cornelia knew. It's normal to charge some more now. But what is Sunday school? Cornelia chewed on the first term she had heard, which seemed to mention the Almighty Lord, and although she was willing to believe the lord, the girl still asked suspiciously, "I haven't heard of it at all, Lord Alfred, what is Sunday school for?" ”

I don't know.

Of course, Arian Hurd would not say this, and the female knight pondered for a moment before replying: "The specific situation is not too clear, this morning, a priest in black suddenly came, and he talked to Lord Sinloth in the room for a long time. When Lord Sinloth came out of the room, he announced that he was going to build a Sunday school and increase the number of maids. ”

"I don't know where the priest came from, I don't remember any priest in Desmond. I don't know what that guy in black said to Master Sinloth. The most powerful of these people is always their mouths. Lord Sinloth believed in them so much, alas"

Arian Hurd didn't know what was going on, so he poured out all the bitter water that had been held in his chest for a long time. Perhaps, it's really suffocating, perhaps, the girl in front of her is particularly pleasing to her. The knight had an obligation to admonish the feudal lord, but she had no idea what Sinlos had discussed with the priest, so she had no way to persuade her.

Cornelia tilted her head and listened quietly to the knight's complaints. Waiting until Arian Heard calmed down, he said, "The lord must have done this for a reason, by the way, the priest in black!" Isn't he very tall, full of muscles, with fingers on his hands. He carried two very large swords on his back, and when he looked at people, his eyes were very fierce. The tone of speech is still quirky? ”

"yes, it's not so much a priest, he's like that, it's a berserker or something, Cornelia, do you know him?" The female knight's expression froze, her eyes were as sharp as knives, and just staring at Cornelia made her feel cold and unable to move.

It's terrible, Lord Alfred, it's terrible, is this the power of a knight

It seems that she has also noticed her gaffe, what she sees in front of her is not a mortal enemy, but just an ordinary little girl. Arian Hurd quickly looked away, looking away.

When the female knight's gaze was removed from her, Cornelia suddenly felt light, only a few seconds, but as long as centuries had passed. The girl swallowed, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and secretly glanced at Arian Heard a few times, before carefully continuing: "That should be Father Durodus." I met him the other day when he came to the village to preach, but then the village chief's grandfather said that the shepherds of the Lord do not need to arm themselves in this way, because of their devout faith, the Lord will bless them. Dressed like this, he must not be a serious priest, so he was kicked out."

"Poof."

Arian Hurd couldn't hold back his laughter. I didn't expect that village chief to be so interesting, and he knew how to use scriptures to fight back against that priest.

The female knight smiled like this, and Cornelia's courage grew, and the girl's tone was obviously cheerful: "That priest looks quite scary, but he is actually a good person. Cornelia raised the basket in her hand and said to Arian Hurd, "The priest said that if you have collected a basket of these herbs, you can go to Sister Mariana for ten coppers." Brother Shonazel has grown too fast lately, and he can't wear his shoes anymore."

The girl said happily that Arian Heard was the first person besides his brother to listen to her about these odd things—especially since Arian Heard was a noble knight. Thinking of this, Cornelia became even more excited: "Although the village chief and grandfather are not very welcoming to them, but if Desmond has a priest, the Lord will definitely bless Desmond, right, Xinluo came here, is it the will of the Lord?" ”

"They? Isn't that Durodus a man? ”

"yes, there are three of them. Sister Mariana and Brother Geruger were very gentle, very talkative people. Father Durodus is also a little too terrible. ”

Arian Hurd rode on his horse, listening to Cornelia's chatter, but his heart drifted into the distance.

What the hell are you thinking, Lord Sinloth? Why did you let them into Desmond if they didn't like the church?
