3 The big tree holds up the sky and protects against the wind and rain
"Your emotions are a little extreme, and you're in a state of paranoia. This is not what a prince should say. ”
Daniel looked at the Mithril Prince and said coldly.
The Mithril Prince paused for a moment, then said, "Suss was deceived, she didn't know the seriousness of this matter, and she didn't know that this matter had nothing to do with family affection at all. He is like an innocent little girl, still longing for the warmth of the family, but our father, for himself, is ready to sacrifice everything. She is a victim, and I am also a victim if there is a need in the future. ”
"You can't change her mind yourself, expect me, an outsider who hasn't seen you for a long time and has become emotionally unfamiliar, to change her mind?" Daniel said slowly.
"I want you to help me?" said the Mithril Prince suddenly.
"Tell me how you can help?" said Daniel.
"You promise me first, you must help me. The Mithril Prince said aggressively.
"What the hell is going on, if you think I have to promise you before you can say it, I think I should get out of here. Daniel insisted on his opinion and did not say yes.
"Brother, you can't do this, you will put our two countries in hostility by doing this, and if anyone discovers this secret, you will definitely put yourself in danger. The strength of the legendary knight is too strong, even you, unless you take it with you in the royal city for the rest of your life, otherwise, you will be killed by the legendary knight's sneak attack. Princess Seuss said anxiously beside her.
"Actually, I can do that!" Prince Mithril continued, "You can be willful, but I can't. The so-called royal affection has blinded you to the future and the traps under your feet. There's nothing I can do to stop you, but I can change certain things, such as making your future so-called husband, that lascivious bastard who has no impertinence, completely play with you. ”
Princess Seuss was about to say something, but Daniel interrupted her, and then said, "You want me to help you kill people, and the target is that Count Wendell of the Sarsan Empire, a powerful man of the town country, and the grandson of a legendary knight?
"Brother, how can you do this?" said Princess Seuss anxiously.
Prince Mithril's face was indifferent, his eyes did not have the slightest emotion, and he said slowly to Daniel: "I saved you once, right? You also said that you will repay me? My request is very simple, kill that Count Wendell, and from now on we will not owe each other." ”
"Brother..." Princess Seuss was in a hurry and shouted at Prince Mithril.
But the Mithril Prince was unmoved, just staring at Daniel.
Daniel faced the gaze of the Mithril Prince, but looked at each other without fear, suddenly chuckled, and said: "You are wrong, you once saved me, but the witchcraft permission of the Grass Hunting Trial Spell allows you to produce Witcher Secret Warriors in large quantities, which has offset all the kindness. But I still owe a favor to Princess Seuss, so this person you mentioned, I will find a way to kill him, and after the fact, we really don't owe each other. ”
The Mithril Prince nodded and said slowly, "That's fine!"
"However, I just tried to do my best, and I wouldn't risk my life to kill someone who had nothing to do without the chance. Daniel added.
"I'm sure you'll be able to do it, kill that Earl Wendell. I await your good news. Another thing I want to remind you is that killing him must be within a year, because I can only delay it for a year at most. Even if something happens, this time will be shortened, and once Seuss leaves the royal city and heads to the Seuss border, ready to enter the Sassan Empire, you can't do it. ”
The Mithril Prince spoke, a hint of relief in his tone.
"I see. Daniel spoke, and was about to leave.
"Stop. Princess Seuss said to Daniel, who was about to get up and leave, and waited for Daniel to look at him before saying, "You have repaid my brother's kindness, and you can't give me back my kindness without my consent." ”
"What? Do you still want me to be a cow and a horse for you for the rest of your life? Killing people is just a nod to the ground, and you still have to cut meat with a blunt knife and serve you for the rest of your life?" asked Daniel unceremoniously, his tone full of resentment and anger.
"That's not the case!" Princess Seuss shook her head and said, "My kindness is to hope that you will live well and happily, as long as you are happy, safe and healthy, it is the best reward for me." You go, don't get involved in our business, that's the best reward. ”
Daniel looked at the tearful Princess Seuss and did not speak, but looked at the Mithril Prince next to him, and asked, "Count Wendell of the Sassan Empire is your sister's future husband, if he dies, will your sister not have to marry him?"
"No, there is a good chance that you will continue to marry! I believe that the Sassang Empire is not monolithic, some people are not willing to make the knight family of the strong people of the town country stronger, they will definitely make a move, so even if you don't make a move, they will make a move, maybe you haven't reached that place yet, Count Wendell has already been killed? Plus you, I want an insurance, and the most important thing is that no one will suspect that I instructed you. ”
The Mithril Prince spoke.
"If Earl Wendell dies, and your sister continues to marry, who will she marry, and will that man continue to die?" Daniel continued.
"No need, after the death of Earl Wendell, I am very sure that even if Suss marries, he will marry Earl Randall Golden-Eyed, Seuss admired this Earl Golden-Eyed very much before he met you, right, my dear sister?"
Prince Mithril spoke, looking at Princess Seuss.
And Daniel also looked at Princess Seuss, but found that although Princess Seuss was still in a hurry, there was still a trace of shyness in her eyes.
It seems that what Prince Mithril just said is right, Princess Seuss just doesn't want to marry the rude Earl Wendell, if the marriage partner becomes a golden-eyed earl, I'm afraid I will also be happy in my heart.
Daniel thought silently.
Seeing Daniel's appearance, Princess Seuss was in a hurry, and said to Daniel: "Don't listen to my brother's nonsense, I won't allow you to kill Count Wendell, I don't need you to take care of my affairs, if you really think that I am kind to you, just leave here and live well, this is the greatest reward for me." Please, you go, leave our business alone. ”
Faced with Princess Seuss's plea, Daniel was silent for a long time before he said: "When you saved me, you were coercing your brother, and you didn't count this kindness at will." Whether to kill Earl Wendell or not, I have the final say. I'll go back and check on him, and if it's really that bad, I'll kill him." What if..."
"If he weren't as bad as my brother said, wouldn't you have killed him?" said Princess Seuss urgently, unwilling to let Daniel risk it.
"I'm still going to kill him. It would be possible for you not to marry, or to marry the so-called Earl of the Golden Eye. Daniel said with a smile.
"How can you do this?" Princess Seuss was about to cry, but there was no way, she wanted to reach out and grab Daniel, not let him go, and imprison him here, but found that the palm of her hand was half a meter away from him, and it was blocked by a transparent invisible air bag, no matter how hard he tried, there was no way to make the palm continue to move forward and really touch Daniel's body.
This situation made Princess Seuss helpless, and she almost cried in a hurry, and it also made Prince Mithril's eyes tighten, his pupils contracted, and he was very surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect that the power of a golden knight could not get close to Daniel, who was prepared, and his heart raised a notch for the power of Daniel, a wizard.
"Everyone has the right to be willful, you can and I can too, as long as we pay the price later. Daniel said with a smile.
Then ignoring Princess Suss's interception, he slowly stood up from the ground, patted the clothes on his body, and said slowly: "That's it, right? ”
After Daniel finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot in a flash, and he had already left the place through the teleportation spell, returning to the lair in the central area of the Dusk Forest.
When Daniel left, Princess Seuss looked at Prince Mithril and said slowly, "Why did you involve him, you didn't have to do this?
Prince Mithril looked at Princess Seuss, who looked a little painful, and said slowly: "My dear sister, do you remember when I lost power, I was disgusted by my father, and none of the nobles dared to get close to me, so that I was almost exiled to open up a human gathering place in the Dusk Forest?"
"Of course I remember, this memory is my most painful and happiest memory?" Princess Suss said slowly with a hint of remembrance, a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Do you know why I took you with me when I left the royal capital?" asked Prince Mithril.
Princess Seuss's face was a little confused, a little ignorant, thinking and shaking her head, but she couldn't find an answer.
"Before, I was the big tree in the family, and you were the vine. With the support of a large tree, the vines will grow taller and taller. If the vine loses its tree, it will crawl on the ground and be trampled on. You are weak in nature and seem strong, but if I am not there, they will definitely find an opportunity to bully you, and you will most likely not tell your father, so in order to protect you, I will insist on taking you away despite the opposition of others. They say that I am here to be better able to come back later, but in fact I am here to prevent them from finding an excuse to marry you off. ”
The Mithril Prince said with a smile, his tone full of memories, as if that was the most carefree life for them.
"Then why are you doing this to me again?" Princess Seuss asked, puzzled, to Prince Mithril.
"Now that you are a Golden Knight, you are a big tree that supports the sky, and you are no longer the vine that needed a big tree to cling to. ”
"Whether you want it or not, there will be a group of people standing behind you, and they will force you to keep going. And your vision makes it easy for you to be bound by feelings and family affection, so I don't allow you to make decisions without permission. ”
"You see, you made a decision to satisfy my father and me, but you made yourself wronged. ”
"It's not what a princess, or even a golden knight, has to bear. Your strength must be guaranteed, as much as possible not to make others suffer, or so, can only make others suffer, to ensure your own sanity, not to be emotional, is the Golden Knight's creed. ”
"Now, Daniel could have become the secret wizard of the family, and even if you can't have a relationship with each other on the surface, you can secretly get the blessing of the whole family. ”
"Now, because of your relationship, your decision, and your so-called good for your family, Daniel's relationship with you, with me, and with our royal family has been completely severed. ”
"I know you're going to say that it's me, the brother, who forced him to do something very dangerous, but how can it end up being your own fault? If I don't come, Daniel will be gone, and after he's gone, if you try to find him, you'll probably never find him. ”
"You may never see each other again in your lifetime. Maybe you are still stubborn, saying that you are about to get married and become a wife, and you will not have intimate contact and private meetings with other strange men, so naturally you don't need to have any communication and exchange with Daniel, a dangerous wizard, and it is better for each other to cut off the relationship. ”
"But you know what? My father had a secret wound, but this time he was seriously ill, and he was in disguise. Not to force me to comply, but to force you. Yes, that's you. You used to be just an ordinary flower princess, and your only value was for your father, for the interests of the royal family, to associate with other forces, and get the most benefits. ”
"And now, you've become a Golden Knight, especially a Golden Female Knight. The unpredictable Golden Knight is the most beware of the enemy, so Father needs to send you away quickly. ”
"And I also want to tell you that the Legacy Altar for you to obtain the Golden Knight was given to me by my grandfather himself, and I gave it to you, and my father didn't know it. So your so-called belief that power is obtained from the royal family and that the royal family to whom allegiance should be owed is fundamentally wrong. ”
"Daniel is right, as a princess, a person of sound mind, you have the right to choose your own life, as long as you pay the price, you can do whatever you want. ”
"I also tell you today, you are already a big tree, don't sacrifice yourself for any vine, otherwise, the tree will not be protected, and the vine will die. I hope you can think about it when you do things in the future. In the future, you may regret your actions today. ”
"No, it's not true, I don't believe it. Princess Seuss shook her head, not believing what Prince Mithril had said.
But as a golden knight, she has faintly felt her father's jealousy of her, and even secretly wary of her.
This situation panicked her and made her want to talk to someone.
"Dear sister, welcome to the game of chess. Prince Mithril patted Princess Seuss on the shoulder, said slowly, and then walked away without looking back.
Princess Seuss was left alone.
