Verse 534: Spiegel (1)

At nightfall, as the old Caedus's regiment withdrew to rest, Marin also opened the teleportation channel and returned to Copenhagen with his team.

The dozen or so young people in the team did not have the laughter of the past, because in the whole afternoon, Chaos launched a total of seven attacks, and the regiment of old Caedus lost nearly half of its personnel, just like this old man said, Marin could not save everyone, because mortals could never cover the sky with one hand.

But Marin also saw the courage of mortals, these young men from the western provinces of the Northern Kingdom jumped out of the trenches in the face of chaos again and again, whether it was a fallen human like the Chaos Cultists or the purest chaos like the Plaguebringer, they never retreated.

The three companies that began to counter-charge after the end of the sixth offensive, they have never been able to find any survivors, not only them, there are almost seven companies before and after such losses, even if Marin's technique buried thousands of chaos, but the chaos that came like a wave seemed to never be able to kill them all, Marlin ignited the psionic energy more than once, and completely crushed thousands of plague messengers.

Even if it can protect a young person because of this.

But on the seventh occasion, the old Kades was stabbed in the chest by the Chaos Plaguebringer in a hand-to-hand combat at close range, and when Marin arrived, the old man was already on the verge of distortion, and he had become a half-plaguebringer, and he begged Marin to give him a good time, so that he could die in human form.

All Marin could do was cut off his head and purify everything with the Divine Flame.

On the other side of the battlefield, a huge fire has not yet been extinguished, and sacred flames leap between the bones of the chaos, and they work tirelessly to ignite all evil.

This is the scar left on this land by Marin's psionic ability when he was promoted.

"Your Excellency, do you need me to accompany you to His Excellency Cades' house?"

Marin took the ashes of old Kades, Suder felt that Marin was going to take the ashes to Kades's house, Marin shook his head: "You guys should rest early, the offensive of chaos is becoming more and more fierce day by day, maybe it will reach its peak in another week." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, Your Excellency, please rest early, too. ”

Suder finished speaking and went back to the small building, Marlin walked in the wind and snow with his hands crossed, and Fio followed Marin with the urn of Caedus.

In the small bag behind Marin, Beep hummed a requiem that belonged to their clan.

There are some things that it is better not to let young people like Suder see.

Following the address given to Marin by the military, Marin came to the mansion of Kested, which had also been glorious in the past, with a garden with a garden that was now a camp for the refugees, and his mansion was also full of wounded soldiers, and he seemed to have given his mansion to the Church of Love for use as a hospital.

This is no longer a Caedus house, and the elder Caedus had dismissed his old butler the previous week, and it seems that ...... Having already anticipated his death, he donated his mansion to the Church of the Goddess of Love.

Marin walked through the door of the mansion, and an old lady from the Church of Mercy noticed Marin, and she came over: "Good afternoon, sir, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Because it was late at night, the light in the house was not good (only candles were used), and Marin was wearing a very ordinary coat, and looked more like a down-and-out young man, so the old woman turned her head and opened the big wooden barrel behind her: "Ah, sorry, young sir, only this piece of black bread remains." ”

"No, I'm not here to find something to eat." Marin looked at the old woman and shook his head.

"Then you are ......" "I'm Marin, Marin Gayat, and I'm back with His Excellency Kades Hagelberry."

The old lady glanced at Marin, and then at the World Tree twig carrying the urn behind him, and she gradually understood: "No, this is ...... This is not true! Your Excellency...... Your Excellency, he's a high-ranking warrior! ”

"I purified him." Marin replied.

Looking at the old woman's crying appearance, Ma Lin didn't know how to explain, as the number of onlookers increased, a middle-aged man dressed as an assistant priest of the Church of Love squeezed in, he glanced at the old woman, and then looked at Ma Lin: "Sir, what happened, why is Mama Ailian, who I teach the church, so sad." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I am Marin Gayat, and I am sending him back after the Honourable Kades Hagelberry was killed in the battle at noon today. Marin repeated, in his eyes, the middle-aged man was silent for a moment, and he could see that his eyes were red, and the assistant priest who was trying to control his emotions nodded: "I know, Lord Kades." ”

Marin turned around, took the box, and handed it to the middle-aged man: "Your Excellency has handed over his mansion to you, and I hope you can properly handle your aftermath." ”

"We will." The middle-aged man took the box and nodded solemnly: "Your Excellency Kades will always remember the help of our loving church. ”

Hearing this, Marin nodded.

Tomorrow he will tell Antoine about the death of Caedus, and return his badge to Antoine.

It is said that all northerners who died for their country would leave their coat of arms on the wall of one of their safe houses.

If you're lucky, Marin wants to visit it.

With the matter completely handed over, Marin donated another 20,000 Mowis in the name of Caedus.

With the repeated thanks of the priests, Marin left the old mansion.

When he walked out of the door, Marin glanced back again, the lights and crowd in front of him were so unreal, the rise and fall of a family until the end, when everything happened in the end, Marin felt a little ridiculous, why are there always good people without happiness?

Walking to the road, there was a carriage with young people whizzing by, and Marin watched the carriage gradually drive into the wind and snow, and the laughter and scolding of those young people gradually faded away.

Why do these moths thrive?

These young people who are drunk with money, and those who stand in the trenches in the wind and snow and fight desperately for the world and chaos...... Is it really the same kind that lives in the same era?

Marin bowed his head, not knowing what to say, and eventually, he got up and prepared to return to his residence.

Because there are some things that I can't understand, I can't explain clearly.

After walking a short distance in the snow and wind, as the axle of the carriage behind him approached, Marin stopped and turned to see the carriage stop on the side of the road in front of him.

In the open window, a piece of black bread was thrown out, and it made a crisp sound as it fell to the ground in front of Marin, and then it jumped twice before stopping its somewhat bizarre journey.

"Hey, serf, this is for you." The girl sitting in the carriage seemed to be satisfied with the kindness she had shown, and the young man beside him glared at Marin: "You fellow! Pick up my fiancΓ©e's kindness! ”

Marin didn't move, standing in the dim area between the two street lamps, hiding himself in his hood, scratching the stubble on his chin.

"Hey, serf, don't know what's wrong." The coachman pressed his hand to the holster of his lapse.

Marin sighed, finally leaned down and picked up the piece of black bread, wiped the snow and mud off it, and broke it open with all his might.

Marlin, remember, don't waste food no matter what.

I still remember that the old dean said this, like a grandmother, and like a mother's elders, so that Marin did not disobey her entrustment in the end.

One bite at a time, he swallowed the bread cube in his hand, he glanced at the girl and the young man in the car and shook his head.

Do you know that today's lunch for the soldiers of the Caeders Regiment is two bowls of wood-stemmed soup for two people and a piece of black bread.

You don't know, you don't understand, and you never hear about it.

You live in your world, and there is no pain, no suffering, only a good life of drunkenness.

"Thank you for your hospitality."

After saying that, Marin continued his journey, walked to the lamp, the redness in Marin's eyes gradually dissipated, and after walking through the darkness, Marin lowered his hood.

The anxious officers ran with buckets and passed by Marin.

Beep looked at the road it had come, and in its dark eyes, the flames on the carriage were burning brighter and louder, and the buckets in the hands of the officers could not save such fierce flames.

The carriage door did not open, and the coachman pulled the door in vain until the jumping fire enveloped him completely, and the warlord looked this way, and he stretched out his hand in vain, but finally shattered to the ground under the gaze of Pyp.

Beep grinned, and it leaned on Marin's shoulder, a little impatient to see how his master was doing, only to find that his master had not changed, the smile on his face was the same as usual, and his eyes were still full of conviction, as it had been when he first saw him.

Beep muttered, its fangs gone, the eight-pointed star on its forehead gone, and it burrowed back into Marin's backpack, a little sullen.

"Beep."

The call from its master made a beep beep, and it lay on Marin's shoulder again.

This time, the little one's chin scratching from his master made the little one laugh very happily, and at the same time heard the whispers of his own master.

"Remember, Beep, I will not succumb to chaos and sin, I will ring their death knell with my own hands, I swear, I will smash this old era, I will definitely reforge civilization with my own hands, no one can stop me."

Beep blinked, and finally chose to squint his eyes and enjoy the caress of his master.

………………

Early the next morning, Marlin got up and went downstairs to notice the dwarf beside Alyssa: "Good morning, Mr. Messenger, is there anything wrong with you." ”

He smiled and walked down the steps, watching the gnome greet him.

"Your Excellency Marin, Your Majesty would like to ask you to come over once." The dwarf kept wiping the sweat from his forehead as he spoke, it looked like Mr. Courier's body was a little weak, and it was unimaginable that he could sweat in such a cold weather.

"I see." Thinking of this, Marin smiled and nodded: "Wait until I have a good breakfast." ”

With that, he strode over to the long table.

"No, Your Excellency Marin, Your Majesty asks you to come over at once." The dwarf added.

Marin ignored him, but sat down at the head of the long table and glanced at Alyssa: "Miss Alyssa, what have you prepared for me today." ”

"Two main dishes and one soup at your request, so today I have an egg roll, a farol sausage, and your favorite bowl of bean soup." The head maid replied with a smile, and her maids brought the food that had been prepared long ago.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please come over immediately, now, immediately, immediately, please, Your Excellency Marin." The gnome's voice was a little weak, and he looked at Marin and called Marin's name in a very cowardly tone.

Completely aware of the courier's voice, Marin put the sausage into the spread out egg roll, and then forked the wrapped egg roll with a fork and bit into his mouth. Beep was at Marin's side, and as he feasted on his sausage, he looked at the dwarf, who was not much taller than him.

When the gnome opened his mouth again to speak, Beep opened his mouth, and the bloody mouth full of fangs made the dwarf scream, and he sat back on the ground, and then retreated into the corner in one breath.

"Mr. Courier, what's wrong with you?" Marlin was pleased as he ate the sausage slices and sprinkled salt into the soup bowl - the amount of salt was up to Marin's own control.

"Your pet ......" "It's my companion, Beep is my companion, and it's cute."

Beep turned to look at Marlin and smiled happily.

After correcting Mr. Courier's slip of the tongue, and drinking the soup down, Marlin picked up the last few slices of sausages with his fork and threw them into Beep's mouth.

Then Marlin stood up, untied his dressing gown, and handed it to Alyssa's hand: "Wash it for me, I'll be back in the evening." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, when you return, you will see your favorite dressing gown in front of you at its best." The head maid took Marin's dressing gown.

Fio and Lorraine served Marin and donned the robes of the Goddess of the Harvest.

Merlot handed its master the matching sword given by the Lord of Justice, and his master fastened it to the clasp of his belt.

Manna handed her owner the flat glasses and put them on for her master herself.

Marin walked up to the gnome, a deep portal opened behind him, and a team of paladins from the Church of the Lord of Justice stood behind Marin, and the young knight led by him saluted Marin in silence.

"Didn't you say that His Majesty Mannheim wanted to see me, Mr. Courier, show me the way, Mr. Courier, and stop sitting stupidly."

In the eyes of the messenger, Lord Marlin, who had the light on his back, smiled very pleasantly.

"Get up." He said this, and at the same time stretched out his hand and took the dwarf by the hand: "Don't let Your Majesty Mannheim and the Lords continue to wait. ”
