Pushing open the door to the room and feeling the first rays of morning light on his face, Arthur's heart felt a little better.

I called the attendant who had been waiting outside the door and asked him to prepare some breakfast.

Although yesterday when Ogries tried to invade Arthur's body, he was stopped by the sun god. However, after the Little Rock incident, Arthur's heart was suspicious of the Holy See's doctrine of light and justice, coupled with the subtle influence of the Hell Lord Ogries' long-term subtlety, Arthur's heart was not as pure as before.

Pick up a piece of bread and eat most of it in one bite. After returning to the Holy Mountain, Arthur did not recover his spirits and did not eat much, so he was a little hungry.

After settling a loaf of bread, Arthur looked up and asked his attendants, "I wonder if anything happened during the time I was resting?"

"Lord William, nothing has happened on the Holy Mountain lately. The squire replied.

"Nothing is happening in the kingdom?The corpse poison on the Walloon Plateau has been wiped out?" Arthur was somewhat aware that the Holy See had concealed what was happening in Little Rock.

"Back to Lord William, the corpse poison on the Walloon Plateau is still raging, but with your efforts, the corpse poison has been controlled, and the Eloda Empire and Kingdom are cleaning up the remnants of the corpse poison. The squire replied.

"Speaking of what happened in the kingdom, some people even said that the destruction of a small city on the border of the kingdom was done by you. It's really a person who doesn't know how to be grateful, my lord, you helped them fight bloody battles and were framed as ....... The attendant suddenly remembered halfway through his speech that Lord William in front of him was not only His Royal Highness the Holy Son of the Holy See, but also His Royal Highness the Prince of the Kingdom of Ovite.

"The subordinates are talking nonsense, please punish His Royal Highness the Holy Son. The attendant fell to his knees in panic and begged for Arthur's forgiveness.

"It doesn't matter, even the kingdom can't frame us in the Holy See for no reason, especially if you doubt the honor of the Knights of God's Right Hand, and the Lord will judge them. Arthur was not angry at all, but expressed his thoughts from the perspective of the Holy See.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Holy Son, for your magnanimity. The squire hastened to thank Arthur.

"Get up. Tell me about the recent events in the Kingdom. Arthur raised his hand.

"Yes, Your Highness. With Arthur's permission, the squire stood up and recounted what he knew about the recent events in the kingdom of Ovit.

It's a pity that this squire doesn't know much, and the things he says are innocuous news.

"Alright, you go down first. Drinking the milk from the cup, Arthur waved the squire to step down.

After the waiter packed up the dishes and exited the room, Arthur fell into deep thought.

According to the attendants, there are only two voices in the kingdom about what happened in Little Rock, one of which is that the Holy See is attacking Little Rock, and the other is that Little Rock is being attacked by barbarians who have been forced to have no way out, and in the hopeless result of defense, the defenders chose to die with the invading barbarians.

The latter statement was affirmed by Viscount Gates, who escaped from Little Rock. After escaping from Little Rock, Viscount Gates fled to Safehaven without stopping. Upon arriving in Port Surford, Viscount Gates immediately informed the Knights of the Windton stationed there about what had happened in Little Rock.

It's a pity that when the Knights of Fengton arrived in Little Rock, there were only wisps of green smoke wafting in Little Rock.

According to Viscount Gates, the barbarians who invaded Little Rock were numerous, not only carrying engineering equipment that the barbarians had never brought before, but also many ancestral sacrifices.

Judging from the ruins of Little Rock, there are indeed many barbarian corpses in the city. They even found the body of an ancestral high priest in the city lord's mansion in the middle of the city. All of this evidence proves that the tragedy in Little Rock was caused by barbarians. Even the Knights of Windton acknowledged the result.

But Arthur didn't understand why it was so obvious, but it was such a result. Perhaps something happened in the kingdom that Arthur didn't know. From the time my father told him the news in the kingdom at the beginning to now that he was reluctant to send any news, there must have been something going on in the kingdom, and my father was unwilling to let him know.

"William, William. While Arthur was thinking about Little Rock and the kingdom, the voice of Agaros was heard outside the house.

Arthur was about to get up and open the door when Agaros pushed open the door and entered.

"How's that, it's okay. Agaros asked with concern.

"Arlo, I'm running out of business. I'm going to worry you guys a lot. Arthur smiled.

"What are you talking about, you are my brother, I care about you as I should. Agaros was relieved to see that Arthur's face was as usual and in good spirits. "Seeing you like this, I'm relieved. How about going with me and having a drink?"

"Okay. Although Arthur was still thinking about Little Rock, he still looked the same as usual.

Walking on the White Jade Flower Avenue, Arthur asked, "Agaros, I have never asked you, as a nobleman of the Eloda Empire, why did you choose to believe in the sun god and come to the holy mountain to be a paladin?"

"I said it was because I was inspired by God to give up my comfortable life to come here, do you believe me?" said Agaros laughed.

"I am because before I was born, my father had promised the Holy See that I would become a paladin. Seeing that Agaros didn't say anything, Arthur directly told Agaros the reason why he came back to the Holy Mountain.

"Actually, it is not a secret in the Kingdom that I came to the Holy See, after all, when I was born, it was the baptism of His Majesty the Pope. ”

"Well, I heard of these when I was still in the family. At that time, I thought that the Holy See, you, the royal family of Osapangon, had reconciled. Agaros said.

"What the Kingdom of Ovit claims to the outside world is that you are the reincarnation of the Holy See Saint Augustus, right?"

"Well, that's right. Since I was born, everyone has considered me to be the reincarnation of Saint Augustus, even my uncle, Duke Hendris. Arthur said.

"However, I have also heard my father talk to himself. Saying that my visit to the Holy See was just a deal. A deal that can stabilize the kingdom. Arthur said directly: "These, whether they are true or not, I don't know." But judging by the clues, it should be right. ”

"William, why are you talking to me about this today?" asked Agaros when he suddenly stopped.

"Everything that happened between my election as the Holy Son of the Holy See and the undead revolt in the Valley of the Kings is a bargain. Arthur ignored Agaros' question and said to himself.

"William, you stop. Agaros grabbed Arthur's arm, "William, whatever the reason for your coming to the Holy See, I hope you can keep your heart, work hard and don't be affected by other affairs." ”

"What happened in Little Rock was just an accident. When I came back, I also asked why I had to slaughter the city. Do you know what the teacher said to me? There are demons in the area of Little Rock, and the teacher is just afraid that the demons will escape, so he has no choice but to choose. ”

After listening to Agaros's words, Arthur's face was like an expression.

"Hear me, Arthur, that sometimes we can't make everything start or end the way we want it to. Do you know why, as the second young master of the Clraccia family, I would choose to become a believer in the sun god?"

Instead of calling Arthur's name, Agaros called Arthur's real name, which shocked Arthur, and Agaros's next words also sent Arthur into deep thought.

"On the surface, I am the honorable second young master of the Clecia family, but who knows my suffering. I was an illegitimate child, and my mother was a maid of a noble family. After a party, my father got drunk and had sex and made my mother pregnant with me. ”

"After learning that my mother was pregnant with me, my father took my mother directly back to the family. But it wasn't the beginning of my mother's happiness. ”

"My father's wife thinks my father's behavior has brought her face down. After all, it is normal for nobles to have a lover among themselves, but my father was the first to bring a lover, especially a pregnant lover, back to the family. ”

Agaros's face was full of bitterness, "My father's wife is very bad to my mother, and my father is busy with official duties because he is the second minister of the Eloda Empire. Basically, I don't care too much about things in the family. This caused my mother's health to deteriorate, and eventually my mother died after giving birth to me. ”

Arthur looked at Agaros and felt that he was a little strange in front of him. In Arthur's impression, Agaros has always been a cheerful and sunny person, without a trace of distress. And being able to kill a golden lion when he was just an adult, he is simply a perfect example of a paladin. What I didn't expect was that Agaros would have such a tortuous past.

"After I was born, my wife, who had never had children, treated me as her own. And after the death of her mother, her so-called shame disappeared. I grew up under the care of my father and wife until my wife became pregnant with her own child. ”

"Arthur, can you understand the pain of the person who has been kind to you to become the one who killed your mother?" Arthur was silent.

"Later, in order not to compete with my brother for the heir to the family. I voluntarily chose to leave the home that made me sad and came here. Agaros suddenly laughed, "Actually, after coming here, I didn't feel that bad. Bathing in the glory of the Lord, I have found the meaning of my life. So, I hope that Arthur you will also be able to find the ultimate persistence in your heart. ”

After listening to Agaros's story, Arthur didn't speak. Now he is also a little confused. What the hell should I do? Was Little Rock really just an accident?

Agaros knew that Arthur would need some time to get used to, so he stood beside Arthur and watched him quietly.

Arthur, on the other hand, squatted on the side of the white jade flower avenue and thought. Agaros, who looked at Arthur, did not notice that a darkness welled up in the eyes of the confused Arthur.
