"You mean, maybe the director of the White Orphanage, the old man named Archibald, wants to catch you?" said Felistie during recess, after listening to what Avi had to say. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Avi nodded, and after thinking about it for a day, he decided not to tell the other party about the artificial life. But he had already found a suspect - the director of the White Orphanage, and if those mercenaries were coming for their artificial life weapons, then they must have been hired by the people of the White Orphanage.
"Maybe the administrators of the orphanage have already found out that we have sneaked into the orphanage, and they want to arrest us back for interrogation, so they chose to start when we are traveling," Avi didn't notice that Mr. Rost, who taught history, had already entered the classroom, and he was still whispering to Felistie with his head sideways, "It just so happens that you and Michelle didn't go, otherwise, the two of you who have infiltrated the White Orphanage will definitely be their target." ā
It was Avi's concoction, but he felt that the explanation made sense. Felisti wanted to say something, but Teacher Rost had already noticed the whispering of the two, "Some students should know that they must be serious and attentive in studying history, and the history of every country in the mainland has a role to learn from, and it can play a lot of help for every student, so please pay attention to the lecture and try your best..."
Before Avi and Felistie could finish listening to Rost's ramblings, they straightened their postures and listened quietly to the lecture.
Felisti didn't follow Avi to lunch after class, she said that she still had some textbook knowledge and wanted to ask Rost for advice, and Avi also decided to stay with Felisty, after all, the first exam of the Kestrel Academy was approaching, and Felisti's serious study also inspired Avi.
"That's it, you all remember it, right?" Rost put down his quill and looked at Avi, "I heard that you met Grand Prince Bradley on your way to Butterfly Town, what is your impression of Grand Prince?"
Avi and Felisty exchanged a look, he didn't expect Rost to ask such a question, and Avi answered the other party truthfully, and directly said his original impression of Bradley. After listening to Rost, he nodded, and then said to the two: "I teach history, and Felisty and Avi are both very serious students, at least if you find a class, you two are the most serious students." So if you have time, I'd like to tell you about Bradley's past. ā
The red-haired girl then said, "I'm not hungry anyway, so you can tell the teacher." Avi also wanted to hear about the eldest prince Bradley, after all, he saved himself in Butterfly Town.
Rost took a sip of his tea, then told the two of them about Bradley. Bradley Feremiz was King Byron's first child, and his sister Winrith Feremiz was the second. Originally, Winlith was the first child to be born, but as soon as King Byron heard that the twins had given birth to a boy, he first picked up Bradley, and because of the patriarchal tradition of the Kingdom of Salins, this newly born prince was placed on Byron's highest expectations, hoping to one day pass on the throne of the Kingdom of Sallins to him.
This was maintained until Bradley was eight years old, before Amsoil was born, and Bradley was King Byron's only child, but an incident occurred that caused Byron to have the idea of not passing it on to him.
At that time, Bradley had just learned to use weapons, but the eight-year-old prince had an excellent talent for coordinating with any weapon in his hand, and mastering how to make the most of a weapon in a very short time. Due to the destruction of the city by the "Thunderbolt King", his successor, King Byron, was not very fond of dancing with knives and guns, compared to his father, who loved to fight. Byron was more of a typical aristocrat than a king who would personally go to battle. So Bradley's talent for fighting was even more disgusting to Byron, and it didn't take long for the young prince to kill a man with his own hands.
It was a criminal who had broken the law, a burglar. Because the thief killed a baby during the burglary, the citizens of the capital at the time wanted the thief to be executed. However, King Byron believed that the thieves were only forced to burglary because of necessity, and that the baby's death was suspicious, and the thieves claimed that the baby was already dead and not that he had killed him. In the end, Byron chose to let the thief go, and only imprisoned him temporarily.
Later, the family who had been robbed insisted that King Byron be sentenced to death for the thief, and Byron had to have the thief brought out for interrogation. The thief was already dead in prison, and he had been beheaded.
King Byron immediately ascertained the incident, and it turned out that the sensational infanticide reached Bradley's teacher, who used it as a negative example to teach Bradley what a criminal was, and that some things were called crimes. Unexpectedly, Bradley, who was only eight years old, had his own thoughts and judgments, he believed that the murderer should pay for his life, and he also learned from his teacher that King Byron did not execute the thief, but had the idea of leniency. Bradley concealed his teacher, went to the prison alone, and ordered the jailers to catch the thief, and cut off the thief's head with his own sword, and delivered the thief's head to the house of the thief, and gave him justice.
King Byron was furious at this incident, and he immediately arrested Bradley's teacher and punished his own son for not leaving the palace. You must know that King Byron hopes that his son can become a benevolent and righteous king, who would have thought that Bradley would show such a brutal character since he was a child, which really disappointed Byron.
Although in the days that followed, King Byron found the best and kindest teacher to teach Bradley how to be a nobleman who was tolerant and kind to others, and Bradley did show a kind side, but that incident still made Byron haunted, and the eldest prince was still a bloody and cruel man in his mind.
As Bradley grew up, he gradually became mature and steady, and he was also kind and polite to people. But King Byron did not get close to his eldest son, and not many people know the reason for this, but Rost guessed that the reason was related to this incident back then. King Byron was very fond of Walter, the youngest prince who was born later, perhaps because of the gap between him and his eldest son Bradley.
Later, Bradley got tired of life in the capital and began to travel far and wide, and with all the knowledge he learned, the young prince began to live alone, and also worked and studied in other countries, until he enriched his experience and returned to his homeland. Later, Bradley didn't want to compete with his two younger brothers for the inheritance, so he took his friends to the southwest of the Kingdom of Sahlins, guarding the sea, and his sister refused the wedding arranged for her by the nobles, and followed Bradley to the remote west of the kingdom.
"Thank you, Mr. Rost, for telling us these stories about the Great Prince, it turns out that Prince Bradley had such an experience, I really didn't expect it. Felisti looked very happy.
Rost waved his hand, and then said: "You are the most serious students in this class, and I also like to tell my students about the past, and I tell you about this matter this time, so that you can know more things, after all, Grand Prince Bradley has returned from there." ā
After Avi listened to the past of the eldest prince Bradley, he was also thinking about why Bradley chose to come back at this time Mallot, looking at Rost's tone, it seems that the timing of Bradley's return is not a coincidence.
"Then is there any purpose for the eldest prince to come back from afar this time?"
"I don't know, but it's certain that Bradley's return must have something to do with Walter's imminent return from Dlamain to Mallot," Rost took another sip of tea, "the three heirs to the throne are coming back, maybe we can learn something from history." As soon as the history teacher finished speaking, Avi remembered the lesson taught by Rost today - in the history of the Kingdom of Salins, there was a bloody dispute between the heirs to the throne for the throne.
