Book 1: Believers of Light Chapter 38: The Return
The war between the Adomondo family and the Best family began unexpectedly and ended unexpectedly. Roger Best, the head of the Best family, accepts the reality of his defeat and chooses to hand over the new century-old heirloom of Oakway in order to pray that Nimit will spare the people of the Best family. Nimith agreed. Faced with this man who killed his loved one and left his son on the streets, Nimiit has long since lost the resentment of his youth. Now that he just wants to use the artifact of the new Oakway family to return to the Adomondo family, Nimit wants to show his anger to those who have bullied him!
Unbeknownst to these Arthurs, he was now standing at the gates of Banyas City to say goodbye to Floga. The war between the Adomondo family and the Best family caused by the time in Mud Lane has kept him in Banyas City for too long, and now he must return to the kingdom of Ovit immediately, and Arthur still needs to find out what happened in the Valley of the Kings.
"I didn't expect that this trip to the Eloda Empire would be so rich. Thank you, Floga, and hope that you will be able to come to Ovit in the future, and I will entertain you with the best wine. Arthur said with a smile after parting with Froga in a hug. "I didn't expect to be friends with His Royal Highness the Prince of the Kingdom of Ovite. Thank you so much, Arthur. Thanks to your ice, I was able to gain an advantage in a duel, and I regret your friend. Froga looked at Arthur's emerald eyes and said emotionally.
The early morning wind ruffled the hair of the two people, and the warm sunlight blended the shadows of the two people. After Arthur and Froga embraced each other again, Arthur mounted his mount, the Hurricane, and began to return to the kingdom of Ovit with his squire Severns. Seeing Arthur disappear beyond the horizon, Fortner's figure appeared like a ghost at Floga's side just as Froga turned to return to Banyas City. "Young master, the lord asked you to go to Adomondo Castle, and the lord said that there is something to discuss with you. ”
Froga looked at Fortuna, who was not leaking, and knew roughly what his father was looking for him. Whatever was behind the Adomondo family, Froga had already made a decision.
Fortner seemed to see through Froga's thoughts, "Young Master, sometimes, things are not as simple as you think. It's good to follow your heart, but blindly obeying will only harm you. ”
"Hmm. Froga just said nothing. "Let's go, Grandpa Fortner. ”
In the study of the castle of Adomundo, Nimit and Froga sat facing each other. The oil lamp burning with the fragrance of the dragon whale is emitting a sweet smell.
"You've roughly guessed the true identity of the Adomondo family, right?" said Nimitt, clasping his fingers together and looking into Froga's dark blue eyes. "Well, though, I don't know a lot about the plane. "Then you know where hell comes from?" Nimith stood up, walked to the window, looked at the rising sun, and said, "There are endless planes in this world we live in. Elda is just one of these many planes, and it is a small and medium-sized plane. In the middle of this world there is a vast and boundless plane, which in my homeland is called the main plane, and my family of Adomondo comes from the main plane. In the world, all planes exist based on the main plane, including the hell that once invaded the continent of Elda. ”
Nimmit's voice was soft, but it was like thunder in Floga's ears. In Froga's cognition, in addition to the Elda continent where he lives, there is only heaven and evil hell controlled by God. Froga would never have imagined that there were other worlds outside the Eldar continent, and the world he had lived in for more than twenty years was just a speck of dust in this endless world. Froga felt like her world was collapsing.
"My child, for those of you who live in small planes, this information is indeed difficult to accept for a while. But it doesn't matter, there's still time for you to digest. What I'm going to say next is the most important thing, and I hope you'll give me an answer after that. Nimmit's words were formal, and Froga couldn't help but sit upright when she heard it.
"You and my family, the Adomondo family of the current Elda continent is just a branch of the Adomondo family of the main plane. In the Adomondo family, whenever a family member becomes an adult, the family will give this person a certain amount of capital to go to other planes to develop, and then wait until he can become the richest man in the plane and master the wealth that meets the requirements of his own family, and then he can return to the main plane. Until then, the people sent out are not allowed to return to the main plane for any reason, even if they are in danger of being destroyed. The Adomondo family relied on this model to grow stronger. But this also leads to the problem that some people feel that this practice is too ruthless and refuse to give back to their own people. Then the war between the branch and the clan will begin. ”
Nimith paused and continued, "A hundred years ago, my father, your grandfather, Oster Adomondo, was sent to the continent of Elda. This is both because your grandfather has fulfilled the requirements of the branch, and also because of the hunt for the remnants of the new Oakway family. After coming to the continent of Elda, your grandfather worked hard to make the Adomondo family the richest family in Banyas City, and it was only a matter of time before he became the richest man in the continent of Elda. So at this time, your grandfather made a request to his clan to return to the main plane. But I didn't expect my clan to refuse your grandfather's request. The clan believes that your grandfather has not completed his mission and is not allowed to return to the main plane. In desperation, your grandfather had no choice but to continue his search for the new Oakway family. But the new Oakway family that fled here seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no trace of it. After searching to no avail, your grandfather gave up the search. Instead, he sought the opportunity to return to his family, and after feeling that he had no way to return to the family, your grandfather pinned his hopes on me. So after learning that I was infatuated with your mother and didn't want to take care of the family business, your grandfather decided to let your mother separate from me. That's why we are in today's situation. ”
Nimith looked into Froga's eyes and said, "I have never held a grudge against anyone about this, and whether or not the family will not mean much to me. But for you, it's very different. Child, I owe you so much. I can't let you be trapped in this small world, your talents, your future should shine on the main plane. Now that I've completed my family's mission, I can return to the main plane. So, I hope you will be able to go to the main plane as well. ”
Froga had ever seen a father like today, whether he was in the Adomundo family when he was a child, or when he saw him on the street after leaving home, Froga always felt that his father was so stubborn, strong, and majestic. Today he saw a somewhat pleading Nimitte, a father with good intentions.
Sighing in his heart, Froga couldn't bear to look into Nimmit's eyes, but he still had to say what he had to say: "Father, I don't need your compensation, and you don't need to feel guilty about me. I miss the old days, maybe I was just a lowly person. The Lord you said was tempting to me, but I wish I could go there after visiting the continent of Elda. This is my home after all. ”
Nimith seemed to know how Froga would answer. Nimmit did not say anything about the known result, but said, "I respect your choice, my child. ”
Hearing his father's words, Froga was also relaxed. So he said his plan, "Father, I want to be able to visit the continent of Elda, whether it is the Northland Wasteland or the Far South Sea, I want to see it. ”
"Well, since you already have a plan, then I won't force you. For the time being, there is nothing you need to participate in the family, so you can travel with confidence. ”
Watching Froga walk out of the study, Nimith said in a deep voice, "Come out." The space rippled, and a man dressed in gray and black looked at Nimith in silence. "Are all the people from the family so rude?" said Nimmit, angrily. But the man in gray was indifferent.
"Good, good. Nirmit laughed angrily, and suddenly, before the man in gray could react, Nimit had already grabbed the man in gray by the neck with his right hand and lifted him up. The gray-clothed man, who was held by the neck and could not breathe, had a red face, bruised muscles, and a pair of eyes that were wide open, looking at Nimit in disbelief.
"Sometimes it's not good for a dog to have a too smart nose. He casually threw the body of the man in gray aside, then turned around. Nimmit said to Fortner, who appeared at some point, "Make sure Master Austin figures out how to use that dragon ring." We must study it before the main system discovers it. "Yes, sir. ”
Arthur and Severns, who left Banyas City, galloped on the flower-speaking prairie, feeling the cool summer wind, and Arthur felt for a moment that it was good to live here. Perhaps in the future he could ask Lanceloven III for a piece of territory and live here for the rest of his life.
"Your Royal Highness, there's a town ahead, should we take a break there?" The outline of a small town appeared in Arthur and Sevens' sight, and since leaving Banyas, Arthur and Severns had been sleeping in the open and had not traveled to any town. When Duke Hendries returned to the Kingdom of Ovit, it was stipulated that Arthur must return to the city of Xollus within half a month. As a result, he stayed in Banyas City for too long because of the Mud Alley incident, and now Arthur has little time left. "How much food and water do we have?" As long as there are enough rations and water, then there is no need to waste time in the town. "Your Highness, our rations are still sufficient, but we don't have much water. Hearing Severns' answer, Arthur thought for a moment, and then said to Severns, "Now we must hurry back to Xolus City. Severns, you go to the town ahead to buy some rations and get some water. I'm waiting for you in front of the town, and we're fighting to enter our country tomorrow. With that, Arthur rode away on a hurricane. Leaving Sevens helpless in the direction of the town.
