Joseph pondered the game of chess alone, and Padraic entered the door and saw an indifferent Joseph in no hurry to disturb him. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Padraic glanced at his brother's bookshelf, on which there were many thick and thin books. Some of them have fallen to dust, while others have been looked at regularly. Padraic kept an eye out for several books that were on the verge of falling apart, called Dynasty, The Faiths of Midangele, The Sentinels of Dervenor, Lord of Eregron, and Shadow Knight. Especially the last one, which Padraic hadn't heard of.

He picked up a book with no name and wondered what was written in it. If you look through it, it's all shredded paper glued together. After restoration and polishing, I can barely tell what it was talking about. Padraic looked at the social theory inside, and knew that it must be a leaflet that Kurosawa had spread to the east of Rant. After flipping through a few pages, Padraic found a completely new paragraph, presumably about the Freemasons. Although these things are not legal, who can say anything about the prince?

Seeing that Joseph didn't want to deal with him, Padraic played a random chess move to attract Joseph's attention.

"It's no surprise that you've been thinking about this for a long time. Joseph said lightly: "But this is also an irreparable stalemate, the queen of black and the king of white have become deadlocks." No matter how you deal with it, black will force a draw within five games. ”

"Why do you think about it when you know the result?" said Padraic, teasing, "It is a waste of the prince's privilege to spend all day in the house playing chess with himself." ”

"Not necessarily. Joseph picked up the king of white and crossed four squares to capture the king of black.

Padraic wondered, "I'm pretty sure it's a foul. ”

"That's what's interesting about chess. Joseph said, "You see, there are soldiers and cavalry on this chessboard. Everyone follows their own rules and moves on this board. Some people actually say that the chessboard is like a small battlefield? It's a fart, no one on the battlefield will play by the rules. We can win easily, all we have to do is think outside the box. ”

"Well said. Padraic said, "Why don't you jump out of your room? Father's birthday is just around the corner, and I'm sure he'll be more than happy to see you find the love you like." ”

"I'm sure he'll be happy not to see me. Joseph said, "I am no longer a child, I know what my father thinks of me." ”

"Don't blame him. Padraic said, "My father hasn't been seeing anyone lately, and he's anxious to finish his life's work." Have you heard about Sam Pendragon, whose father has given him permission to put the underworld in order in the imperial capital, and nominally has the supreme power to oversee the entire imperial justice system. ”

"Not interested......" Joseph said.

"Come on, what must be you're interested in?" Padraic guessed, "Cream tea with pudding?"

"Not interested. ”

"Play chess!"

"I'll admit it's inspiring, but it's still boring. Joseph said.

"Well......" said Padraic, "Everybody likes girls." ”

"Depends on what the girl is. Joseph smiled knowingly.

Padraic sat down and said, "What kind of girl do you like?" ”

"Why, will she come out of my head when I say it?" said Joseph with a laugh.

"I'm the crown prince, and I'm sure I'll find out if there is a girl like that. Padraic swore and said, "Now tell me what the lover of your dreams looks like?"

"Is that so...... "Joseph said with Padraic in a joke, "she has red hair, but she tends to be brown." And it can't be the kind of hair that feels messy no matter how you take care of it, the hair can be slightly curly but it can't feel like a blanket. Her face must be delicate and simple, and must not always have a depressed and dark expression. And she needs to speak and sing sweetly and softly. Like the wind of recovery blowing into her heart, her beautiful voice gives people the courage to regain their spirits and enthusiasm for life, just like her character. ”

"Classic!" said Padraic, "the perfect lover that everyone dreams of." ”

"I don't want a classic. Joseph said, "She is unique. She prefers plain clothes, cyan or white. But except for formal occasions, she would not wear the troublesome and inconvenient tunic like a noblewoman. Because she is always curious to jump up and down, sometimes when no one is around, she will do a lot of stupid things, and it is very inconvenient to dress too cumbersomely. She has to have some knowledge, preferably with a higher education, but not too rigidly educated. She has an open heart to welcome anything new, a new friend. She knew that many of the words in the book were instructive, and perhaps even wildly wrong. She dared to challenge authority, but she was convinced of the facts. ”

"My God, the article of literate women alone has brushed off more than half of the candidates. Padraic said.

"Again, she's empathetic, but not overbearing. She knew when to leave me alone and when to forgive my situation. She doesn't stubbornly worry about me, and the most important thing is that she doesn't mess with my pawns. Joseph said.

“......”

"Don't just talk about me, let me know what kind of girl you like?" said Joseph.

"Me?" said Padraic after a moment's thought, "I've met many girls, but none of them made me fall in love at first sight. ”

"We're not talking about real-life girls, you can put together a character to your liking. Joseph was looking forward to the girl he would say.

"Well, maybe I'm not as eloquent as you. Padraic said, "But there's a first time, don't ......you?" She is not tall and always likes to sit quietly in the courtyard and watch the scenery. The girl who looks silent has a beautiful voice and is talented. She goes straight, does what she likes, and confesses to whoever she likes. As for the color of the hair...... I like dark ones. ”

"It's very general, could it be more specific. Joseph silently watched his brother recount his dream lover, just like when he was a child, he always ran to tell him that he had found a cave to the secret realm, and bragged that he wanted to go on an adventure with him. "She's straightforward, how would she talk to you?"

"Yes, she's straightforward. She doesn't shy away from words that might get her into trouble. If she was in a hurry to do something, even in the face of the prince, she would have said: I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry now. Padraic imagined.

"Will her personality have any effect on her life?" said Joseph, trying to enrich the non-existent girl.

"Of course. "She was informal and sometimes late for important occasions," Padraic said. ”

That also explains why you imagine she's in a hurry. Joseph said.

"Although she is in a hurry to do anything, she will feel serious guilt when she makes mistakes, and as long as she pays a little attention, she will not mess up again. She has a tough attitude in front of others, but when she meets her beloved, she becomes as calm as a cat. Also, she likes cream tea with pudding!" Padraic was surprised, "Wow...... I thought I was just casually coming up with a framework that didn't exist, but as soon as I put the events on her, all the details became clear. ”

Joseph laughed and said, "Haven't you found it before? You don't think that all novels are made up by the author?"

"Isn't it?" Padraic had always thought.

Of course not, the author is only responsible for putting the events on the character, and the rest is done by the character himself. Joseph said.
