Early in the morning, the sun is shining.

......

Outside the conference hall on the upper floor of the Scarlet Castle, a group of senior instructors stood up, Catherine was wearing a knight's robe of light, looking particularly graceful, a pair of beautiful eyes overlooking the students who were training swordsmanship on the training ground below, and his eyes finally fell on Luo Lan, who was holding the snake sword in his hand and standing in the open space, only to see that the young man's eyes were closed, but there was already a wisp of sharp breath around his body, it was sword intent, and unconsciously, his swordsmanship had been achieved.

"Hum ~~"

Catherine showed a look of pride and said to Taylor on the side: "Deputy Commander, do you see, the kid holding the red sword blade and wearing the elite camp uniform is my student Lolan. ”

"Oh?"

Taylor's eyes suddenly locked on Loren in the crowd, and he couldn't help but smile faintly: "Yes, he already has such a fighting momentum and kendo comprehension at a young age, and he is worthy of Lord Catherine's beloved apprentice, I also heard that he even participated in the killing of a storm wurm when he was fighting in the north, and also saved the life of Boss Gerald?"

On the side, Gerard put down the wine jug and said with a happy smile: "Deputy head Mingjian, my old man's old bones are indeed useless, but at that time, he just seemed to be in a hurry, Luo Lan would rather fight for my life, but ...... Everything is under my control, and it will be fine. ”

"Oh, the old man is getting stronger, it's really admirable!"

"You're welcome!"

Gerald clenched his fists and greeted him, and said, "The deputy head of the regiment must have a very urgent matter when he visits the Scarlet Castle late at night, right? I don't know what it is, so that the deputy head of the regiment can come to the Scarlet Castle in person despite his busy schedule." ”

"Oh, it's not a big deal. ”

Taylor smiled slightly, and said: "Last month, after supervising the battle in the southern battlefield, I returned to Lingdong Province this month, and on the way back to the imperial capital, I passed through the Lin family in Lingdong Province, and after staying in the Lin family for a few days, I returned to Xingyuan City with Lin Shixian, the young master of the Lin family, and he is about to return to the Stardust Academy in the imperial capital to continue his studies, and the young master also said that I heard that there is an old man in the Scarlet Castle, so I want to come and have a look." ”

"Oh?"

Catherine frowned slightly, her eyes swept to a young man beside Taylor, and said with a smile: "This must be the famous young master of the Lin family, right?"

"Exactly. Taylor nodded.

Suddenly, the young man immediately stepped forward and respectfully gave a knightly salute to Catherine, saying, "Lin Shixian, the local knight of the Bright Knights, see Lord Catherine, the quasi-bright knight!"

"Young master doesn't have to be polite. ”

Catherine raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "The Lin family of Lingdong Province is one of the pillar families of the empire, and has provided countless materials and talents for the empire, otherwise the battlefield of the empire on the northern and southern fronts would not be so smooth, and it is the honor of our Scarlet Castle that the young master can come, but it is ...... I don't know who the old man the young master is talking about?"

Lin Shixian turned around, stretched out his hand and pointed to the training ground below, and said, "The trainee of the elite battalion, the one who is practicing swords." ”

"Huh?"

Sky Knight Grantham frowned and said, "Is it my student Avril?"

"Exactly!"

Lin Shixian said respectfully: "Lord Grantham doesn't know, Avril is the daughter of the city lord of Avril City, two years ago, our Lin family had a marriage contract with each other, so Avril is actually the fiancée of his subordinates, but just over a year ago, she suddenly ran away from home, and there has been no news since, until a month ago, I finally learned after many inquiries that her old and mediocre father actually sent her to the Scarlet Cage training camp, so this is also the reason why I asked Deputy Head Taylor to take me to Scarlet Castle." ”

Taylor nodded: "Yes, no one would have thought that the female cadets of the elite battalion in the Scarlet Castle would actually be the fiancée of the young master of the Lin family, in my opinion, Lord Catherine, it is better to let Avril graduate early, and let her go to the Stardust Academy in the imperial capital with the young master to study together, so that they will also be fulfilled." ”

"This ......," Catherine hesitated for a few seconds and said, "According to the rules, the students of the elite battalion cannot graduate without officially passing the assessment, and I think this rule must be best known to Lord Taylor." ”

"I know. ”

Taylor was a little impatient and said, "But...... As the deputy head of the regiment, don't I have the right to graduate early for a cadet?"

"This ...... Yes, yes. ”

Catherine bit her red lip and said, "It's just that we can't go against Avril's wishes, I think whether to graduate early, this matter still has to respect her own wishes, what do you think?"

Taylor was stunned: "What do you mean...... Ask herself?"

"Yes. ”

"Good. ”

Taylor waved his hand, "Lord Grantham, go and let Avril come to see me at once." ”

"Yes, sir!"

......

On the upper floor, in the conference hall, rays of sunlight poured down from the window on the ground, reflecting the entire conference hall in a bright light.

"Squeak~~"

Avril pushed the door in, a piece of sweat oozing from training on her beautiful face, and she looked blankly at a group of upper-level knights in the conference hall with a pair of big eyes, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Avril is here!"

"Good. ”

Taylor stood up and said majestically, "Avril, I'm the deputy head of the Knight of Light, Taylor!"

"See your lord!"

Avril got down on one knee and saluted.

"No courtesy. Taylor said in a deep voice, "Avril, you look up and look at this person next to me, do you know him?"

"Yes!"

Avril raised her head, and the moment her gaze touched Lin Shixian, she suddenly felt as if she had been electrocuted, and a trace of horror flashed in her beautiful eyes, and said, "You...... Why are you here?"

Lin Shixian smiled faintly: "My dear, you ran away from home without leaving a word, I worked hard to find you again, come with me, leave here, I can obtain a qualification for you to study in the Imperial Capital Stardust Academy, let's cultivate and get along in the Stardust Academy together, okay?"

"I ......"

Avril gritted her silver teeth, but her mind was full of someone else.

"Why, don't you want to?"

Catherine spoke: "Avril, is this young master of the Lin family really your fiancé?"

"I ......"

Avril looked at Lin Shixian again, her beautiful eyes were full of horror and humiliation, and said, "Lord Catherine, I ...... I don't want to leave the Scarlet Castle, I'm willing to continue cultivating in the Scarlet Castle, I don't want to ......"

"Got it. ”

Catherine raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Lin Shixian, it seems that she doesn't have a good impression of you, give up, after all, a twisted melon will not be sweet, are you right?"

"But I ......" Lin Shixian looked at Avril again with a pair of eyes, and said: "The only woman I love deeply, you are the only one, I will give you another chance now, come with me, I hope you will answer carefully!"

Avril shook her head, looked at Catherine with a plea for help on her face, and said, "I'm not leaving...... I'm going to stay in the Scarlet Castle, Lord Catherine, and I want to keep following you......"

"Got it. ”

Catherine's voice became a little heavier, and said, "Young Master of the Lin family, Avril has made it very clear, she is not willing to go with you, you better give up, the people of our elite battalion of the Scarlet Castle are not allowed to be forced." ”

"You ......"

Taylor held back his anger and said, "Lord Catherine, she is just a mere student, would you rather offend the entire Lin family for her alone?" I don't think your choice is prudent enough. ”

"Lord Taylor, every word I say is well thought out. ”

Catherine glanced at the other party with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said, "But you, the dignified deputy head of the Knights of Light, a person with hundreds of thousands of military powers, how could you personally come forward to the Scarlet Castle for the sake of the personal feelings of your little children?"

"I ......"

Taylor was speechless for a moment, and said, "It seems that Lord Catherine doesn't want to give this favor to Lord Ben." ”

Catherine couldn't help but wonder: "Lord Taylor's words are serious, you are the deputy head of the Knights of Light, and I am just a heavenly knight, how dare I not give you face, it's just that as a woman, I don't want to see Avril being forced, after all, she is a student of the elite battalion, that is, my student, what do you think?"

"In that case, let's stop here. ”

A hint of coldness passed through Taylor's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Avril, you go back!"

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

Avril bowed, then turned away.

"Lord Taylor, this ......" Lin Shixian gritted his teeth and looked at Avril's back, his eyes full of unwillingness.

"Needless to say. ”

Taylor said coldly: "This matter ends here, there is no need to mention it again, we will rest in the Scarlet Castle for a day, and we will return to the imperial capital tomorrow." ”

"Yes, my lord......"

......

After returning to the training ground, Avril became a six-godless master, and the star source power on her body flowed uncontrollably, and even several slashes did not have a real effect.

"Avril, what are you doing?"

Grantham frowned: "Concentrate your mind and take your attention away from the trivialities, otherwise, your training today will be meaningless!"

"Yes, sir!"

Avril hurriedly settled down and said, "I will!"

Not far away, Luo Lan walked over with a sword, looked at Avril's appearance of the six gods and no master, and said, "What happened, your face is so bad?"

"It's fine, maybe it's just ...... Missing some rest. ”

"Oh......"

Lorraine immediately looked up and said, "Lord Grantham, Avril doesn't seem to be feeling well, otherwise I wouldn't have let her participate in training today." ”

"Hmm!"

Grantham betrayed him a favor and said, "Since Loren said so, Avril, you go back to rest, you don't have to participate in training today." ”

"Yes, thank you, sir!"
