Chapter 15: Roman Holidays
In the early morning, the sun rises over the Mediterranean horizon and hits the Apennine Peninsula, where two figures on horseback are on a repaired path
"Patty, to be honest, you don't have to come, this mission is still very dangerous" The young man in the brown cloak persuaded the petite figure next to him, "I will go to you as soon as this is done"
The "Heroic Spirit" girl didn't care about what the young man said at all, but read the new noun "You are a Heroic Spirit" that she had heard in the last few days, although Qiuchen didn't know what Patchouli was thinking, the suspicion in her tone was obvious, "Undead Heroic Spirit, you told me that you were an undead"
"Hey~" Qiuchen raised his forehead, "I explained to you, the heroic spirit is the soul of the lost hero who signs a contract with the world consciousness and becomes a heroic spirit, and it is not wrong to say that the heroic spirit is an undead"
"You're a hero?"
Doubt my credibility?! It's unbearable!
"Of course I'm a hero?" Qiuchen said in an undeniable tone
"What are your heroic deeds?" Patchouli raised her eyes
"Uh, let me think about it."
If you want to calculate what happened after Qiuchen became a heroic spirit, he solved a dead problem in the East, and then went to Dongmu City to fight a broken cup war cough cough, the Holy Grail War, and then eliminated a monster that inexplicably entered, it is said that it still seems to have a background? What Old Rulers?
And then, it seems that there is really nothing to take a shot!
"Done thinking?"
"Uh, does it count as a trick with the Lich King?"
"What is the Lich King?" Patchouli looked at Qiuchen for a long time and held back this sentence
"An undead monarch who is powerful in another world, well, but it is estimated that he will not live long" If it is the battle of the Chapel of the Wish of Light when I go, the Northern Expedition will probably last a few years, I'll go, a few years?! "I guess I have a few years to live."
"Don't be so inadequate," Patchouli sighed
"Don't sigh too often, the whole person will look old" Qiuchen patted Pache on the shoulder
"What do you think is a hero?" Patchouli suddenly looked up and asked
"Huh?"
What is Hero? It's really hard to say, if the Heroic Spirits were heroes in their lifetime, Sister Jill? How dare a man go against God, Artoria? Lead the people to glory, Dilumudo? Cúchulainn? Lancelot? They were all powerful warriors who were famous at the time, even if it was Gilles. Morality. Rice, who was also the Generalissimo of France before he went mad, led the French army to fight the British invaders in the Hundred Years' War, and the few who could win head-on. If you want to sum them up
"Well, people are good sons, friends and brothers, they can stand on their fists, they can run horses on their shoulders, and they can break boulders on their chests."
"Don't blow it, it's also human?" Pache hid her face and smiled, "When you get to Rome, pay attention, how can I say that it is still in the category of human beings, but as soon as you use your power, it is easy to be discovered"
"Don't worry, I have my own way"
Rome, also known as the City of Seven Hills and the City of Ten Thousand Cities, is a city that has been inherited for thousands of years. Since the Apennine Peninsula was divided into the Kingdom of Italy and the Kingdom of Naples, because of the rivalry between the two kingdoms for Rome, Rome was taken by the Papal States to make it its capital, and the two kingdoms were very satisfied with this result, which is quite a bit of a meaning that I can't get and don't want to think of. Some resemble what is now Jerusalem.
The whole city is built on the Tiber River, it is one of the most prosperous cities in the Middle Ages, except for a few cathedrals that can be seen outside the city, especially St. Peter's Basilica, which makes the whole city look particularly solemn and majestic, and the pedestrians who can be seen in the streets make the city more lively in solemnity.
"Patsy, how about you take a look at this?" Qiuchen picked up a bottle of fruit wine next to a vendor, and according to the requirements for alcohol in this era, it can basically be drunk as juice
"Don't forget what we're here for" Patchouli pressed her hat, "yes, we're not here to shop."
"Don't be so nervous, relax properly, how about this accessory?" Qiuchen picked up another statue of an angel, which was different from the ordinary, but this statue was more similar to modern people's understanding of the image of an angel, guarding Kenshin
"Boss, what's the matter with this accessory?"
"Oh, this, it's like this, this is a carver's apprentice who we ordered, because the appearance is different from what the guest requested, his master sent it as a gift and the goods" The stall owner looked easy-going, Qiuchen and Pache looked like young heirs of the little nobility or citizens of Venice, in Rome, such tourists are the most, after all, only such people have the time and financial resources to travel
"How much?"
"If a guest asks for that fruit wine, this should be given as a gift, and it won't be sold anyway."
"Okay," Qiuchen happily agreed
"Pacy, take this with you" Qiuchen strung a charm with a rune thread and put it on Pache Palm's snow-white neck
"Hey, is this appropriate?" ”
"What's inappropriate, the gift of Rome tour, take it well"
"Gifts"
"Well, what?"
"No, it's nothing," Patchui pouted, and when she turned back, she regained her previous calm, "Where are we going?"
"Go to the center, the Vatican District, St. Peter's Basilica," Qiuchen took Pacio's hand and walked slowly towards the cathedral like a normal traveler
"You seem to be paying attention to the newly built church, huh? Not going to the Papal Palace? Pache and Qiuchen walked side by side: "Is it so important to have a church that has not been built in a long time?" I feel that if the Holy See had anything important, it would have put something as important as the Papal Palace or St. Paul's Cathedral."
"The Papal Palace? I don't have the idea of going against the whole Holy See yet, trust my instincts, it's in that church," Qiuchen said confidently
"Let's hope so," Patchouli pressed her hat, and this time the task didn't seem that difficult
Or is it because he is taking himself with him?
Pache raised her head slightly, looking at Qiu Chen, who was still looking around with a relaxed face, and he had told himself in the past two days what she would never have imagined in her life
No, why is he following him now, obviously he is the master, is he a good demon
Pache snorted in annoyance
"Patsy, what's wrong?"
"No, it's okay, we're going to do it now"
"Find a place to stay first," Qiu Chen squinted and looked at the signboards of the surrounding shops, "At least we can't act today"
"Okay" Patchouli took Qiu Chen's hand, "Let's go"
Maybe that's a good idea
