"I was counting on it to be an adventure away from all those strife, where the heroes found their fortune and glory in the midst of hardship, and the tradition was thrilling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info so that I can write this story in a book and pass it on. Noah picked up an iron skewer that roasted whole sheep and said to everyone.

The roast lamb here is not served with a plate of whole lamb covered in golden brown like a typical restaurant. Not only are all the pieces of meat neatly cooked and worn on iron skewers, but all the parts are painstakingly arranged in the original position on the large plate, so that people can see that these scattered high-end meat steaks are from a sheep.

The plate is gorgeously decorated, and the pattern on the outside is not just ceramic glazed and colored, but also has three-dimensional relief patterns on it. The inside of the plate, which looks smooth, is actually full of circular bumps and bumps, which are specially designed so that the food does not slip in them.

Noah was bored fiddling with the silver cutlery, and inadvertently found the hidden Marcellus family coat of arms on the fork, a black mandala flower.

"Marcellus of Fate...... Noah said to himself, "Pendragon of justice, Romeo of love, Wesley of loyalty, Nicholas of logic, Ramsden of strength, Grantham of death...... I wonder if the Seven Demons will have such a knight, and they live in Midan Mogul, far across the sea. ”

"If so, what do you think they will do?"

"Lust, curses, betrayals, and demons who do everything they can to show their allegiance. Noah thought for a moment and said, "Mercy and morality please the Holy Spirit, and those blasphemous acts must be pleasing to the devil's eyes." ”

August took a sip of the red wine in his glass and said, "It doesn't sound like this one." ”

"Who can believe that the pre-war Holy Spirit Knight was just a reputation. Noah said, "Be loyal to the Holy Spirit and be loyal to the Emperor." No one cared about the nonsense, and the council and the government never asked the opinion of the Holy Spirit Knights. Now the limelight has turned, the Senate has been dissolved, and in the absence of an emperor and a senate, the Supreme Council of the Seven Holy Spirit Knights is the center of state decision-making, according to the letter of the law. The Knights of the Holy Spirit, who were originally unknown, are now important cogs of the state apparatus, and the original high-spirited lords want to slap them. ”

"Ten years...... Ten years can change a lot of things. August said.

Abel raised his head buried in the plate and asked, "Who are the Righteous Knights in the High Council now?"

"My brother, Sam Pendragon. August said, "He doesn't like me very much, I should say he hates me." The only thing that stood between him and my murder was the stigma of killing my brother. ”

"Why?" Abel asked.

"Because I killed my own father, I killed his father, and I was the murderer of Evan Pendragon. August said, "It seems that you have not heard that story." ”

Abel shook his head, thinking that August had always been a moral model of self-discipline, and that he was completely incompatible with a murderer, let alone murdering his own father.

"We were all hearsay, and we never knew what Mr. Auguste thought, nor dared to speculate. Maybe you can tell us a little bit about what it was like. Noah said.

Although Ebna did not speak, he also stopped what he was doing and put on a posture of listening to the story.

August looked around at everyone, drank his glass and said, "Now is not the time. ”

"Forgive me for asking, when is the right time?" said Noah.

"When I feel good, it's a good time. ”

After Auguste finished speaking, no one spoke for a long time. Everyone tasted the food slowly, on the one hand, because the roast lamb that seemed to be intricately cooked should not be devoured, and on the other hand, they had to leave some leftovers for Krinus outside the door.

The candlelight flickered, and Noah returned to his state of boredom playing with the dishes, and said suddenly:

"Do you know the proverbs of the Seven Holy Spirit Knight Families?"

"The Pendragon motto is: Truth is the handmaiden of justice, liberty is the child of justice, and peace is the partner of justice," said Ebunner. The Romeo family is: the only thing that can bring love is love. The Grantham family is: death is a part of life. The Marcellus family is: some things are predestined ......"

"What else?" Noah asked, "The rest is not so well known, is it?" The Wesley family motto is: Loyalty outside of suffering is nothing. The Nicholas family is that in every dissent there is a seemingly wise word. The motto of the Knights of Strength, the Ramsden family, is interesting, they say: The world is so complex that there is no other way to make it simple than power. ”

"Do you know the White family motto, then?" asked Ebner.

"Of course, Sanders has been friends with the White family for generations, and I know as much about the White family as I do about the bones of this roast lamb. Noah said, "The White family is: no mage with the surname White can appear at the same time. The implication is that only one of each generation of Wright can study magic. ”

"Actually, the White family has no proverbs...... "They take the name of nobility lightly, and they don't bother to plot any kind of conspiracy with the other nobles of Canta." After the passage of time, the only nobles who were still engaged in business in Kanta were White, who did not regard himself as a nobleman. The other adults were imprisoned in the Black Tower by the Agent. It was then that the name White became known. It was assumed that White had a close relationship with the fanatical religious organizations in Kanta, and that it took many bargains to build their fortune in Kanta. The truth is that no one wants to believe that the White family is just serious businessmen. Since then, everyone wants to know the secrets of this legendary family, among which the family motto is an important part of the nobility. Without Proverbs, the White family has only one rule that has been passed down from generation to generation, and that is that only the heirs of the family have the right to study magic. Many people took this as a proverb for the White family, and even wrote it in a book. ”

Noah was stunned for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "It seems that there are many secrets hidden in the bones of this roast sheep." ”

"Too much you can't imagine, Mr. Sanders. August said, "Perhaps I was too stupid, but Krinus White really shocked me, both in the prophecy of Gerdozhong and in the waiting in the village church at the bottom of the tree. ”

"I told you that Kerinos was a prophet......" Abel said as he chewed something in his mouth.

Ebner took the trouble to correct: "Krinos is very smart, but that's about it. ”

"Do you believe in fate? Mr. Abner. Noah said, "As the Marcellus family said: some things are predestined. Our god does not like to play dice, and if Mr. Krinus makes everything go his way, it can only be explained that he understands the principles of fate, or that fate has chosen his own warrior, Krinus. ”

"Wisdom and luck may favor him once or twice, but not more. Ebner got up from his seat with his usual pessimism, and said excitedly around the table: "Martin Marcellus knows the secret of Crinos, and that secret is very dangerous, and it may well end this adventure." ”

"What secret?" asked August.

"I don't know, but Krinus warned me in Canta that the secret would be dangerous, and in more ways than one. He told me that the White family had been living in Canta as asylum-seekers in order to escape the Empire. Abner said.

"Why did the Empire hunt down the White family?" asked Noah.

Abner walked around to the door of the room, turned around and said in a trembling voice, "I don't know, but I know that Marcellus is a Holy Spirit Knight, and the Holy Spirit Knights all work for the Empire, and he obviously knows the secrets of Krinus. What will happen next is self-evident, or we will part ways and disappear into the vast continent. Either they will have to become the playthings of Martin and his henchmen, and they will have to help them find the Stick of Truth. ”

"I think there are other possibilities. Noah touched his chin and said, "Krinus played with Marcellus and used him to bring us closer to the Staff of Truth." ”

Ebner was annoyed and said, "Are you crazy? How could that happen?"

At this moment, the door behind Ebner was pushed open, and everyone saw Krinus walking in with a smile on his face, and said excitedly:

"My dear friends! Martin Marcellus has fallen into my trap!"
