Chapter 522
Mesvor, aristocratic quarter, residence of the Count of Rafal.
In the spacious and tidy garden, although it looks a little bleak due to the climate, the group of energetic figures brings a different kind of vitality.
A dozen or so young and beautiful aristocratic ladies were gathering together in twos and threes, chattering and discussing, and from time to time bursts of silver bell-like laughter would ring.
For the vast majority of women, marriage is definitely the most important thing in life, and wedding is the most important ceremony, and it is naturally the most worthy of longing and imagination, so even if it is just a close friend's wedding, they can still enjoy it, and even empathize with that sense of happiness.
"Suna, how did you and His Excellency Charles meet?" Lisa, who has a cute baby face, suddenly asked a question with great interest, and this topic immediately received a response from many girls.
Faced with this kind of problem, the elegant and quiet blue-haired girl's face suddenly flushed, and she couldn't help but cast a pleading gaze to her cousin beside her.
It's a pity that Hilarina, who looks quite heroic with long red hair and a high nose bridge, turned her cheeks sideways, and her tone carried a helpless and irrepressible evil smile in her tone, "Sister, don't look at me, this is a topic that everyone cares about, you better explain it honestly." β
Minaya, who was surrounded by everyone like the goddess of the moonlight, was also interested, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked maliciously: "I heard that His Excellency Charles is called the Nightmare Knight, could it be that Sister Suna met him in a dream?" β
"What's going on?" Seeing that she couldn't dodge, Suna seemed to be relieved, and she bravely raised her head to look at everyone, "Charles came to participate in the war against the Calestrians at the invitation of my father, and then ...... And then we got to know each other. It's just that when it comes to the back, her courage is lost again, and as her voice gets quieter and quieter, her face becomes redder and redder, and even the roots of her ears are not spared.
"Wow, that's so vague!" "That's it, it's not going to work!" β¦β¦
Suddenly, the girls around her protested unrelentingly, but Suna was embarrassed to continue to talk about the details, so she simply lowered her head and pretended not to hear anything.
"Ahem, beautiful young ladies, please be merciful, don't embarrass my fiancΓ©e too much." A clear and slightly magnetic male voice suddenly came.
The girls were stunned for a moment, and then they all turned their heads to follow the voice, only to see a young man looking at everyone with a smile, his slender figure looked more upright against the black tuxedo, coupled with handsome facial features with a slightly bad expression, he was really a handsome person.
Looking at him, many young ladies couldn't help but jump wildly in their hearts, and then they all began to envy Suna.
"Charles, why are you here?" Suna immediately stood up with some surprise and looked at the lover who was about to marry her.
Squeezing his eyes a little ruffianly, Charles's right hand behind him suddenly held out a plate of dim sum, "This is a freshly baked Lensar cake, I happened to buy some when I touched it, but I was afraid that it would not taste good if it was cold, so I brought it to you by the way." β
"Wow, it's a coincidence to go from the market area to the aristocratic area!" Lisa, who was wearing a white cake dress, rolled her eyes and deliberately exclaimed.
Hila next to her also coaxed, "Yes, yes, and it happens to be my sister's favorite Lensa cake, why isn't there a three-layer cake that I love to eat?" β
Facing the deliberate teasing of her close friends, Suna was suddenly ashamed and happy, but she felt so happy that she was about to faint.
Minaya is also a playful character, although she has been a little depressed recently because of Xia Dong's sudden departure, but at this moment, she has temporarily put aside her thoughts, only to see her and Lisa look at each other, and suddenly proposed loudly: "No, you are too much, you actually show your affection in front of us, and now you are punished to tell the story clearly." β
His eyes swept over the famous Moonlight Knight, Charles's heart suddenly jumped heavily, and he hurriedly looked away and didn't dare to look again, "Everyone......"
"Bang!" Suddenly, a loud noise came from the distance, which not only interrupted his words, but also frightened many girls in the field, unlike the panicked crowd, Minaya and Charles both turned around at the first time and were carefully on guard.
The originally thick west wall of the garden was violently blasted open a large hole more than two meters wide, and in the smoke and dust, a young man with a gloomy face walked in slowly, although he was also wearing aristocratic clothes, but the long sword he was holding in his hand obviously represented bad intentions.
Seeing the appearance of the person who came clearly, Charles's scalp immediately went numb, and he yelled as if he was emboldening himself, "Alexandra, what do you want to do?" This is the residence of the Count of Rafal, and it is protected by the laws of the kingdom and the sacred law! β
With a slight sneer, the young man opposite just looked him up and down with a disdainful gaze, "Just because you are also worthy of talking about the Holy Codex?" Why didn't you scruple to look at the code when you murdered my brother? β
"Nonsense, the death of the Fiji Baron has nothing to do with me, if you have evidence, please show it, otherwise I will accuse you to the parliament of framing my reputation." Charles retorted very righteously, and at the same time quickly stood in front of his fiancΓ©e Suna.
Shaking her head with mockery, Alexandra waved the long sword in her hand twice, "Hey, if it's a man, stand up and compete with each other, don't hide in the women's pile." β
Speaking of this, he suddenly retracted his expression, bowed to the ladies with standard movements, and said with sincere apologies in his voice, "Ladies, I'm really sorry to disturb your party, it's just a grievance between me and Charles, please let us settle it ourselves, now please trouble you to leave, okay?" β
The unexpectedly polite made the girls a little dazed, but they quickly reacted, and after throwing an apologetic look at Suna, they got up and left the garden.
Only Minaya in the audience did not panic in the slightest, her eyes swept over the bride-to-be whose face was already as pale as paper, and then took Charles's fierce and inward-looking look into her eyes, and after thinking about it, she still spoke softly: "This gentleman, no matter what grievances you have between you and Mr. Charles, but this is always the residence of the Count of Rafal, why don't you find time to solve it another day?" You see, Sister Suna was quite frightened! β
Hearing her words, Hilarina, who was still by Suna's side, also hurriedly echoed: "That's it, what kind of ability is it to be majestic in front of us?" β
Bent down and bowed again, Alexandra shook her head with a resolute expression, "Two ladies, the revenge of killing my brother is not the same as the sky, please forgive me for my offense." β
Turning his gaze, he looked at Charles, who didn't say a word, with contempt, he suddenly took off his gloves and threw them on the ground, "Charles, if you still have the backbone of a man, come out, let's solve it in a man's way!" β
"Don't, Charles, don't go!" Seeing the actions of the visitor, Suna's face turned from white to blue, and she couldn't care about her demeanor, so she hugged her lover hard two steps forward, as if she was afraid that he would respond to the other party's duel.
Alexandra's action of throwing gloves is a ritual in the Holy Law, when there is an irreconcilable conflict between two knights, they can duel in this way, whether they live or die, all grievances must be written off after this battle, and no one has the right to avoid or prevent such a duel.
Minaya, who had already made up for the Holy Codex, suddenly sighed, and pulled Hilarina back a few steps to stop interjecting.
Taking a deep breath, Charles gently stroked Suna's palm, but did not look back at her, "Suna, let go, this is a sacred duel, I am a knight, I can't and won't back down!" With that, he broke free from the girl's crying.
Walking slowly towards his opponent, he slowly pulled out the long sword he was carrying, and in the sun, the bright blade was dazzling, and at this moment, he had forgotten everything and calmed down with all his heart.
He knew very well that he would not have any chance of winning before this sixth-level madman who returned from the tempering of hell, but this did not mean that he gave up resistance and was ready to die, on the contrary, he was now even more combative, and he had no shortage of ruthlessness from a civilian background to today, whether it was for others or for himself.
Even if he wants to die, he has to make the other party pay enough price!
It seemed to see his thoughts, and Alexandra on the other side also restrained his emotions and was on guard carefully, although the third-level strength was like a naughty boy for him, but he couldn't say what hole cards the other party had, in case there were any powerful magical items that could be turned over.
Minaya next to her watched Suna crying like a tearful person, and couldn't help but step forward and gently hug this poor woman, she is also a third-level powerhouse, where can you not see that the two people in the field are not at the same level at all?
After a long time of confrontation, as a cold wind whistled, the trees in the courtyard that only had dead branches left immediately shook one after another.
The two knights also moved at the same time at this moment!
After a few consecutive steps to close the distance between the two sides, Alexandra's long sword was raised, drawing a ray of light and shadow to support the enemy's chest, and before the blade arrived, there was already a force that could make people's scalps tingle and shoot out first.
A crack appeared out of thin air in the grass where the "brushing ......" flew vigorously.
In the face of this move, Charles exerted force at the waist, his body spun like a spinning top, and the slightly narrow long sword in his hand had already slashed away with the power of the explosion of divinity.
With a flick of his wrist, the long sword that was originally straight into a straight stab quickly turned into an erection towards the lower part of the body, steadily blocking the opponent's blow, not only that, but the power that secretly erupted made Charles snort and retreat again and again.
Taking advantage of the other party's loss of balance, Alexandra caught up with two steps and stabbed with a sword, "stabbing", bright blood splashed in the air, and a blood mark had already appeared on Charles's chest.
Throwing off the red on the sword, Alexandra stood in place and mocked disdainfully: "Don't you think that your strength can dominate the life and death of others?" How does it feel to switch identities now? My brother isn't even a full-fledged knight, so you can do it? β
In the face of his questioning, Charles just covered his wounds and did not collapse, with a pain of forced restraint in his voice, "I said that the death of the Fiji Baron has nothing to do with me. In his heart, he was a little sad, it turned out that the gap between the sixth level and the third level was so big? The martial arts that he is proud of can't even take a move?
Damn! I'm not reconciled!
"Alexandra, let me tell you, if anything happens to Charles, Wikicity will definitely fight you to the death!"
