"I can't figure it out, Esenas. ”

Now the sky was full of stars, and the moonlight, which had finally cleared, illuminated the earth, and Leo lay on the roof of the carriage, and put his sword into the carriage with its scabbard attached, and knocked on the small table in the carriage.

Leo had chosen the largest house in the village, but there were still not enough beds, so he and Isenas had to spend the night in the carriage.

Esenus rolled over and slapped Leo's sword out of the carriage.

"There's nothing to figure out about this. ”

"How can a person be so stupid as this? He doesn't even know that he has been sold, and he is even counting the money for others!"

"Human beings are different, but human stupidity is always the same. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, don't be so quick to laugh at other people's stupidity, maybe you're making the same mistake yourself. ”

"I didn't laugh at them. ”

"Of course, but I guess it's a little bit contemptuous. ”

"It's for them to be anxious and angry. ”

Isenas stretched out his leg and kicked the roof of the carriage: "What's the use of being anxious and angry about them? If you really want to do something, it should be the church and the nobility." ”

Leo gradually calmed down from his resentment and said, "Yes, the church and the nobility. ”

Suddenly, he asked, "So is this the reason why the kingdom of the free and the kingdom of faith split a hundred years ago?"

"Eighty percent of the time, this is a fundamental conflict of interests. ”

Isennas's voice came from the carriage: "Some of the books I found in Artisan Town contain some of the gods, legends, and secrets among the nobility, which may prove it. At the time of the first deity's ascension to the throne, the deity and the nobility were still one, helping each other to drive the remnants of the alien race out of the human world. ”

"But what about after driving out the alien race? The gods who occupy absolute force naturally cannot let go of the believers in their hands, this is the foundation for the gods to ignite the divine fire, and the nobles cannot let go of their own people. So the two gradually clashed, and it was only because of the power of the gods and natural disasters that the nobles were suppressed. “

"From the first year of the Divine Calendar, when the God King ascended to the throne, to the hundred years of the Holy Calendar, there has been no concept of legend, and when you reach the peak of the Holy Realm, you will either wait to die in battle, or ignite the divine fire, which is also one of the reasons why there are many gods at that time. ”

"It wasn't until about a hundred years of the Holy Calendar that a fanatic believer under the command of the God of Light, without igniting the divine fire, actually gained a powerful power that was not inferior to that of the gods, which let everyone know that there was another way to go besides becoming a god, and in order to praise the legendary deeds of that fanatic, everyone called the new path legendary. The significance of this point is cross-era, which greatly strengthens the armed forces of the nobles who were already somewhat dispensable at that time, so in a duke's family, there must be a legend who can fight against the gods in order to continue. ”

"In the case of strength, the nobles are naturally unwilling to continue to accept the domination of the gods, and they never stop making small moves in private, but for historical reasons, everyone has never put these disputes on the surface. ”

"Until a hundred years ago, half of the aristocracy finally couldn't stand the constraints of the church and launched a war to flee the kingdom of faith. ”

"I see. Leo knocked on the roof of the carriage again: "Then what is the matter with these nobles who are still in the realm of faith, why don't they go along?"

"Who knows, maybe it was because the nobles who ran away back then felt that there was no future, or they were reluctant to give up their own territories, or they felt that there was a turning point between them and the church. But with all due respect, look at the nobility of the Kingdom of Faith now, they don't have a chance at all. ”

Leo was not very interested in these battles, and he said with some regret: "It's a pity that these ordinary people, they are simple, kind, and can obviously live better." ”

"Yes, unpretentious, kind. Isenas chimed in.

Suddenly, he sat up from the carriage.

"I know there's a river valley nearby, do you want to see it?"

"River Valley?" Leo felt a little puzzled, "what are you going to see that?"

"Come and know. Isenus got out of the carriage and walked off into the distance.

Outside the village, the insects chirped more, and a flock of unknown nocturnal birds came from the air with a faint chirp, and the murmuring of water came from afar.

After a while, a long river flowing in the valley appeared in front of Leo's eyes.

Several strips of gravel split the river into several strands, and the moonlight jumped back and forth in the river, breaking into a partial light.

"It's called the Mirror Moon River. ”

"It's beautiful. ”

"Of course it's beautiful, it's even more beautiful in my eyes. ”

Leo turned his head and looked at Isenas, who knew that according to Isenas's habit of speaking, there must be something to follow.

"That's where Solina Heinciri and I met. ”

"Solina, the girl in that crystallization of divinity?"

Isenas fumbled for the stones by the river and stopped in front of a boulder more than a man high: "Yes, it's her." ”

"Look at the dent in this stone, when I jumped into the river to escape the enemy's pursuit, floated down the river, and hit it hard. ”

Leo touched the somewhat rounded dents that had been washed away by the river, and said sympathetically: "This is not light. ”

"yes, I must have been dying by then, thanks to Solina. ”

Isenus sat down on the slippery stones, squatting down by the river, feeling the vapor on the surface of the river as it collided, and said, "That was the first time I had seen Solina, a priest of a good, gentle god of well-being. ”

"At that time, I was young and frivolous, and I was a vast, unbeliever, and resolutely refused to accept the help of the gods and their followers, let alone a priest. ”

"Thankfully, Solina doesn't care where I come from, she says the gods should treat everyone equally. She was so eloquent that she coaxed and deceived me, and finally got me to accept her treatment and stopped my injuries. Otherwise, it would be a dead man talking to you now. ”

Thinking of this, Isenas smiled, quickly stopped laughing, and said in a low voice: "Before I met Solina, I always thought that all the priests and bishops were insatiable people, and she was the one who changed my view of the kingdom of faith. ”

"It's a pity that the good guys didn't get rewarded in the end. ”

"Leo. Isenus looked Leo in the eye and said, "You're right, these believers are kind and simple, and they deserve a better life." Now that I think about it, it was so stupid that my former adventuring party was running around for an ethereal myth and legend. If you can, I'd like your adventuring party to take a look around, okay?"

Leo looked into Isennas's eyes and nodded solemnly.

The so-called record of what you have seen and heard is what you have seen and heard, and the two kingdoms have finally been introduced.
