Chapter 291: Red Origin

In this way, the young officer led his knights and distributed the surplus food to the women and children.

Looking at the people who received the food distribution, their faces were full of joy and gratitude, the young officer couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, their requirements are very simple, it is enough to fill their stomachs, they don't care who is the emperor at all, let alone the so-called republican tradition." ”

Urinus muttered, "Even in the Republic, the freedmen of these remote areas did not have votes. ”

"yes, so no one cares about their voices. ”

The young officer sighed lightly, his tone a little confused: "Even if I am the emperor, I can't imagine what I can do to change all this. ”

He paused slightly, and added: "It seems that there will always be people in this world who will suffer, and the vast majority of people will never be able to live a good life." ”

"Your Highness, this is a predestined thing, just as it is cold in winter and hot in summer, and the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, even the gods cannot change it. ”

"Perhaps. ”

Urinus looked at the back of the young officer, a little inexplicable, he didn't know why this noble-born, even among many nobles, who was still considered a top nobleman, had so many strange ideas.

As a nobleman, it is incomprehensible to say that he will never be in league with the nobles.

He didn't go to Imperial Capital University, but he had heard his father tell an unbreakable truth since he was a child - never betray your position, where your ass sits, you have to speak for which side, otherwise you will be abandoned by everyone.

......

Although the process of devouring demon souls and obtaining cornerstone talents is dangerous, it is not worth mentioning for elven apprentices who are all above the middle rank.

Although the process was a bit painful, all the apprentices selected by Leon successfully completed the ceremony.

Leon looked at the eighteen demon hunters in front of him, and his tone softened a little: "From today onwards, you are officially demon hunters, you will gain the ability to perceive demons, and your tolerance to evil energy will also be greatly increased, and at the same time, you also have your own cornerstone talent." ”

"But that doesn't mean you're a qualified witcher, you need to adapt to your newfound foundation talent as quickly as possible, and get rid of the erosion of your will by evil energy - more than half of the witchers didn't die at the hands of demons, but died out of control. ”

Leon looked at the tired apprentices, and didn't plan to say anything more, he waved his hand and motioned for them to go back and rest.

Originally, he had thought of signing a contract with these apprentices earlier and sending them to hunt demons, but looking at their appearance, it would be difficult for him to recover from the after-effects of the ritual in three or five days.

With that, Leon left the prayer room.

Suddenly there was a voice from behind him: "Teacher, are we going to come over tomorrow morning?"

Li Ang shook his head and said, "No need, you inform them for me, and in the next three days, everyone will have a good rest." But Frynn, there's something I'd like to discuss with you, Kai'Sa and Beludanti have already chosen a new apprentice, and I'm going to make you a teaching assistant and teach them for me. ”

"I ...... Lecturing?"

Fringira's eyes widened, "Teacher, I can't. ”

Li Ang frowned and said, "What I taught you, you have forgotten?"

Fringira hurriedly shook her head: "Of course not, it's just ......"

Li Ang said in an unobstructive tone: "No, I believe you can do it well, and besides, I won't let you go to the lecture alone, I will also audit." ”

"Good...... All right. ”

"See you tomorrow, Flynn. ”

Leon smiled with satisfaction and said goodbye to his assistant.

Fringira looked at Leon's back and secretly made up her mind that she must not live up to the trust of her teacher.

After leaving the prayer room, Leon went straight back to the main hall of the church, where he and Anivia had spent their time there.

"You seem to be in a good mood?"

Behind the long table, Anivia, who was holding a magic book inlaid with gold edges, looked at Leon and asked.

"Of course, I got a teaching assistant, and from tomorrow onwards, I will be able to get rid of those chores. ”

Anivia said a little perfunctorily, "Oh, that's congratulations. ”

"Don't be weird, I'll study the contract again, and if something happens, remember to call me. ”

"Hmm. ”

The conversation between the two was brief, and they each had their own business at hand, and even Beludanti and Kai'Sa would not easily come to the door to disturb them.

Leon once again sank his consciousness into the "universe" with the help of the contract page, still starry, but this time, he once again saw a star that was exceptionally bright, even brighter than the one of Empress Flosia at the beginning.

He has verified that the brighter the stars, the higher the status of the wisher, and the more power he can obtain after completing his wish.

But it's too bright, isn't it?

He couldn't help but mutter, this shouldn't be the wish of the gods, it's a bit difficult to do, anyway, it's impossible to expect the contract page to be completed directly and remotely.

He slowly passed his consciousness over, and when he saw a dilapidated and damp wooden house, inside, there were several torn armor, and at a glance it was a cavalry that had just retreated from the battlefield.

The wisher is a young man who is lying in bed and sleeping soundly.

His armor was hung next to him, and it could be seen that he should be the leader of these cavalry, probably a mid- or low-ranking officer.

It's just that with this identity, can there be stars brighter than Flosia?

Leon's heart moved slightly, it seemed that his initial guess was wrong, and the brightness of the stars was not related to the identity of the wisher.

"What do you want?"

His voice rang out suddenly.

The young man is not afraid, to be precise, because he is not awakened and is still asleep, so the feedback on things that do not make sense is far less rapid than when he is awake.

"Who are you?"

He asked.

"I am the Red Knight, the Patron Saint of Lotherne, the successor of Lady Nasha, and I sense that you have a very strong desire, and I am curious what it is?"

"Hello, honorable Red Knight, my name is Ragudor Pendragon, and I am honored to meet you. ”

Leon asked, "Pendragon, are you royal?"

"Your Excellency, I am the only son of Emperor Arenix. ”

Instead of asking how you got into such a situation, Leon said, "So your wish is to snatch the emperor's throne with Flosia?"

"No, my wish is that all people in the world will be well fed and clothed, so that the world of Calradia will be free of disasters and good weather. ”

Leon choked.

This is similar to the phrase "I hope for world peace" that he said when he was playing with demons.

"Even if I became emperor, it didn't help, I don't see any hope of achieving all this. ”

"I can't do it, but I can give you the way to change it all. ”

"What is this?"

"Mao Xuan, Liema, Red Gang, Gongxuan. ”

Leon's tone was a little uncertain, although he could recall any document he had read verbatim as his mental power grew stronger, but there were many proper nouns in it, and he was not sure that he had translated it properly enough.

But anyway, he

The young officer's face became

Li Ang smiled and said, "Although I can impart knowledge to you, it is up to you whether I can implement it or not." ”
