Chapter 23: Tolerance
Listening to Ishinova's tears, the partners were all very heavy, and they couldn't imagine that so many unexpected changes had happened after just over two months of separation
Joyka was furious, he rushed in front of Leonard with a lunge, opened his bow left and right, and punched him twice: You bastard, aren't you going to fucking kill Lao Tzu, you are going to kill you
Indignant, Ray also rushed forward: what are you doing with such a scumbag, and then raise your spear to stab Leonard in the heart
A white shadow flashed, and Sophia quickly blocked in front of Ray
What are you doing here, is it worth pleading for him like Sister Sophia, is it worth interceding for him, and Lei asked puzzled
Ishnova and Lyle, who survived the Dark Elf War in the underworld, almost died at the hands of their own compatriots after returning to the ground, and even the thick and kind Cassius couldn't help but express their indignation
As one of the parties involved, Lyle pointed to Leonard's hands and danced vigorously, at this time Lyle was mute, no one knew what he wanted to say, but everyone guessed that if Lyle regained his voice, he would be swearing
Leonard, who was bruised and swollen from the beating, struggled a few times, but could not break free from the several thick hemp ropes that bound him, so he had to turn his eyes to Sophia for help: Your Royal Highness, are you willing to see your most loyal knight killed
You turtle also knows how to be afraid, Joika tugged at Leonard's collar and looked at the other party with a cold gaze, what else is 'knight', I bah, your way of knighthood is just to teach you to play conspiracy and beg for mercy, Joyka looked around with disdain, and if the captured mercenary kingdom is returned to you cowards, it will really be over
You shut up...... Joyka's words had a big impact on Leonard
Still unconvinced, Joyka raised her hand and slapped Leonard, where did you go just now, don't you think you are very capable, and you think that you are all in control of your own hands, and more than 60 people were captured by the four of us, and you rely on this ability to overthrow Duris
Leonard was speechless, and his words to Joyka hit the nail on the head, and the captured knight's face was hot, not because of Joyka's fist, but because of the shame in his heart
Answer: I, coward, Joyka, is so powerful, what is the difference between the sword in your hands and the burning stick, and take your own appearance, you filthy fellows, you don't even want to kill you, and stain my sword
Let me kill him, Ray said coldly as he bypassed Sophia
Princess Leonard raised her voice: I have been prepared to die since I embarked on this thorny path, but my brothers are only carrying out my orders, and each of them is a pillar of the restoration of the country, and it is not worth dying for it, if the death of my Leonard Green can be exchanged for the lives of my brothers, or if His Highness comes to his senses, this life can be taken at any time
Listening to Leonard's desire to make Sophia sober, Joika was angry and funny, he looked at this stubborn and possible fellow, shook his head, and then turned to Sophia and said: He is an old courtier of your family, how to solve it, you can make up your own mind
Sophia crouched down and drew a short sword from the sleeve of the priest's robe, the flickering cold light of the blade reflected on Leonard's face, and a trace of horror swept across the stubborn knight's face, but it was quickly replaced by a relentless despair, and he closed his eyes in relief knowing that his time was over
However, it was not his throat that was cut by the short sword, but the rope that was tied to his body, and Leonard opened his eyes in surprise and looked at his princess with an expression of disbelieving
Thunder, who was standing behind Sophia, was shocked: Beware of him being dangerous
Sophia, who was fine, nodded to Ray, and I am sure that he will not do anything dangerous to us at this time
Have you figured it out, Your Highness Princess, Leonard sees a glimmer of hope
To Leonard's disappointment, Sophia replied by shaking her head, and the Green Knight remembered that I had made two requests that day in Shangri-La City
Yes, on that day, Her Royal Highness the Princess asked me: first, not to hurt the Princess's friends, and second, not to use the royal title to Her Highness
But now you don't obey either
This...... Leonard was speechless and said that keeping the oath was a knight's virtue and the most basic of ethics......
Just now you asked me if I have 'come to my senses', and I want to say that I have always been very clear about what I want to do, everyone has their own pursuits, and I cannot deny your ideals, so please stop pressing me hard
No. Leonard suddenly knelt at Sophia's feet, Princess Sophia, is this your answer, we have worked hard to pursue you for twelve years, and have sacrificed countless without regrets, just because we all hope that Your Highness can lead us to recover our homeland, but Your Highness actually ...... Is this your answer to our loyal exiles, Princess, that you really want to watch the people of the entire kingdom of Pole suffer under the tyranny of the dog thieves of Duris
Don't be ashamed, if it weren't for the dog thief Duris, you'd been dead for more than a month, and you still have the life to fart here, Joyka really can't help it
What did you say, was it that incident more than a month ago, Leonard suddenly remembered that terrible day a month ago, no one knew the truth about that incident
I don't mean to sing the praises of Duris, but I saw with my own eyes that when the Central Church was about to destroy the kingdom of Mièpole, Duriss fought with all his might to save the lives of everyone in Hansar City, and in the end, Sophia said
The incident of the Central Church a month ago was planned by the Central Church, Leonard showed a very disbelieving expression, it is impossible, how can the Central Church deal with us, the Pope of the Bole Kingdom said that it is okay to deal with only Duris alone
Wait, Cassius heard something unusual from Leonard's words, what is called 'The Pope said it is okay', is there any entanglement between you Restorations and the Central Church
After his brother said this, Lei also found out what the problem was, and he angrily reprimanded: What kind of collusion do you have with the Central Church
At this time, Leonard also knew that he had slipped his mouth, and he immediately looked to the side and said no more
Joyka snorted in reply
This roar was sudden, and Leonard was frightened by Joyka's momentum, but he quickly regained his composure, looked at Joyka with a disdainful expression, and continued to keep his mouth shut
Enraged, Joyka attacked again, but Sophia raised her right hand and signaled him not to be angry first, Sophia stretched out her hands and helped Leonard up: Although our ambitions are different, I don't agree with what you did, but I can understand that if you have the opportunity in the future, I really want to fight side by side with you and all the compatriots in the camp of the returnees, and fight on the same front, instead of wasting it in the internal strife that is harmful to the people, and before that, there is only one thing, please be sure to promise me, Knights of Grimm, some of the actions of the Central Church can only be used. Lost of conscience' to describe that no matter what connection or transaction you had with the Central Church in the past, it has passed, and for the sake of the Pole Kingdom and the lives of all the people in the Restorationist camp, please do not have anything to do with the Central Church in the future
Sister Sophia, what do you mean by this, just let them go to the thunder path
Sophia replied with silence
Yo hey...... Oh my God, Joyka rolled her eyes, Sophia, did you let the door clinch this mad dog once he put it back, and he would definitely bite back
Suddenly, Leonard stepped back, pressed the palm of his right hand on his left chest, and half-knelt in front of Sophia in a knightly oath posture: I, Leonard Green, are here today to stake my life, my dignity as a knight, and all the honor of the Green family, and swear that if I and my subordinates have the order to leave today, I will never force the princess to do what you do not want to do, and I will never trouble the princess's friends again
Put away your set, Joeyka sneered, you take yourself too seriously, do you think you are still qualified to talk about dignity and reputation, these things have already been defeated by you, Sophia, don't believe this guy's nonsense
Teacher Angel taught me to have a forgiving heart, Sophia said
Tolerance Ishnova and Lyle have been tortured for so long, how should this account be calculated, and Thunder said angrily
This one...... Ishinnova, who was sitting next to Cassius, said in a weak voice that her brother had killed two of them earlier, and injured more than a dozen people, although nothing was comparable to life, but forget it, okay, Ischennova looked at Cassius when she said yes
Cassius also nodded at Ischenova and then said to everyone: Since Ischennova and Lyle, who are the parties involved, have said so, I think it's okay
Standing next to Lyle, he was so angry that he looked at Cassius with resentful eyes, his mouth wide open, but he couldn't speak, and what was even more pitiful was that no one noticed Lyle's expression and eyes at this time, making him almost stunned
Okay, Joika threw Leonard's sword and armor like trash in front of this down-and-out knight, picked up your pile of broken brass and iron, and took your men with you, get the hell out of me, remember, don't be slippery, Uncle Ben won't give you a second chance
Humiliated, Leonard picked up his weapons and armor, silently untied all his men, and then led them into the woods without saying a word and into the depths of the woods, like a defeated rooster
Most of the mercenaries of the group of male lion mercenaries were frostbitten by Yan zhòng, and they were shivering with cold when they walked, and they basically lost their combat effectiveness, and Joyka was not worried that they would fight back, but he still followed behind with bows and arrows in hand, and supervised these people as they walked away, before he turned back along the road
Sophia, you're going to regret it, and when she came back, Joyka choked on Sophia, that guy's head is more stubborn than a stone, and I hope your forgiveness will impress them to dream
There is a story recorded in the Holy Book: People caught a sinner and were about to stone him to death, the messenger of God in the light said that only those who have not made a little mistake can go and throw stones, but everyone stopped, Teacher Angel often used this story to teach me that everyone in the world has made mistakes, so those people dare not throw stones, only mercy and forgiveness are the only correct way to deal with crime, no matter where Leonard will go in the future, today I treat him with leniency, just do what I should do
Sophia, you are a true priest of light, if everyone in the Holy Illumination could do like you, we would not be their enemies, Cassius sighed
Che Joyka disdained to say goodbye to me and broke religious things with me, what Uncle Ben said in the Holy Book only believed one sentence: a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
If he dares to come again...... Ray raised the Blood Pact Dragon Spear in his hand to see how I cleaned him up
As the partners were talking, a dozen men walked over
The friends paused to talk, and together they paid attention to the approaching Khumbu Ambuston and his twelve men.
