The ruined halls, the crumbling walls, the shattered ground, and the royal city, once the pride of the inhabitants of the kingdom of Talon, were all burned in that battle, and everything was scorched by a rain of rockets from the sky. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 InfoSoldiers in armor, some carrying wood, some pushing carts, walked on the devastation.

Outside the city, King Ryan's body was surrounded by countless subjects of the Talon Kingdom, and mourning music resounded throughout the capital.

But there was one of the most important people who did not appear at this grand funeral for a long time.

This time, Lin Qiu no longer had to sneak into the castle in the middle of the night as usual to avoid the patrols of the guards. At this moment, he was covered with bandages, and no one could recognize him.

So he could walk around the castle with confidence, and walk up the stairs quietly by himself.

At the end of the staircase is a fairytale-like dormitory. In the past, he had climbed up from the window, but now his right hand, which was tightly wrapped in bandages and hung from his chest, was obviously not enough to support him in such a difficult maneuver.

"Knock-"

He knocked on the door of this room for the first time.

"Sister Karen, I'm not hungry. ”

Leah's voice soon came from inside, and her voice sounded extremely weak. After Lin Qiu hesitated for a moment, he still pushed open the door of Liya's room.

He's about to leave the royal capital - perhaps as a failed knight who fails to protect the king, or as a failed teacher who fails to keep his promises.

When Lin Qiu pushed the door open, Liya was stuffing her beautiful and delicate dresses into a large box, and on the large bed in the center of the room was a pair of light armor made of gold. The window that had been knocked out of a large hole by him had been repaired, and under the eaves, leaning against a short sword, reflected a dazzling light in the early morning sun.

"Mr. Tyr!"

It was Liya who spoke first, and although Lin Qiu was wrapped like a mummy, Liya still recognized him at a glance. For that night, when all the knights and soldiers of the kingdom were scattered and fled by the arrival of the "Grim Reaper", only her teacher, Tyr Cyrius, fought alone under the moon.

The blood stains that splattered everywhere still can't be wiped clean.

"It seems ......"

The corners of Lin Qiu's mouth moved, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell: "You are very energetic." ”

"Well, I won't need these clothes anymore. ”

Leah placed the last dress in the box, then closed it without hesitation, pushing it under the bed. She wore a well-fitting brown cloth shirt, and her long blonde hair was cut short. She picked up the light armor on the bed and expertly put it on her body.

"I've decided! From today onwards, I don't want to be 'One Piece' anymore!"

Leah walked over to the windowsill and picked up the dagger, the waltering dagger in her hand looked like it could be released at any moment due to lack of strength. However, she gritted her teeth and held the swordsman's wrist tightly with her other hand, stabilizing the dagger. After completing this series of actions, Leah suddenly raised her voice - "I will inherit my father's throne and become the greatest king!

That menacing declaration actually made Lin Qiu believe it a little.

I have to admit that Leah did inherit the qualifications to be a king. In just three days, this little girl who did not know anything about the world came out of the shadows. It's hard to imagine such tenacity in a little girl.

However, becoming the greatest king was a more bumpy journey than becoming a Templar.

"It's too early to say that. ”

For the first time, Lin Qiu didn't run the train in front of Liya - "If you really decide, go to the imperial capital, if you want to become the greatest king, you can't just talk about it." ”

The imperial capital is the cradle of knights. In that land, Leah will not only become a great knight herself, but will also be able to meet people who will help her expand her territory.

"Isn't Mr. Tyr going?"

"I don't have this plan for the time being, you know, a genius like your teacher, the imperial capital hasn't been able to accommodate my academy yet!"

Lin Qiu's bragging is simply at his fingertips.

"Really......"

A slightly disappointed tone - "Then, can we still meet?"

The cool morning breeze blew into the dormitory, and Lin Qiu didn't know why his blood was surging for a while-"Three years! In three years, I will go to the imperial capital to find you." ”

-- Three years to complete a task that no one has been able to accomplish in a hundred years, if other knights hear this, they will definitely laugh their big teeth.

"It's agreed. Mr. Tyr, you said that a knight who does not keep his promise will have a long, long nose!"

"It's agreed. Now that you're okay, let's leave it at that!"

Lin Qiu tapped Liya's forehead with his index finger.

"Mr. Tyr, today's story!"

But this time, Liya didn't step forward and grab Lin Qiu's trouser leg as usual. She just stood by the window and looked at Lin Qiu deeply. Lin Qiu shook his head: "My story has already been told. ”

If it comes to storytelling, he can still tell him about three days and three nights without rest.

But as he said before, now is not the time to tell a story – "Rather than listening to other people's stories, you should witness with your own eyes." So, Leah, you're out of school. ”

Leah, who made such a decision, is no longer the ignorant girl immersed in the fairy tale world, and she no longer needs those stories.

"Mr. Tyr, let me tell you a story!"

Liya stared at Lin Qiu, who was drifting away, and smiled mischievously - "It's a story about heroes." ”

Lin Qiu raised his hand to her without looking back: "Your teacher and I haven't listened to stories since a long time ago. ”

He didn't hear Leah's story until the end.

But apart from him, the whole royal capital heard the story. And this story is passed down orally, and it is believed that it will not be long before the entire kingdom of Tarun will know this story about heroes.

The story is simple:

At the moment when the claws of the "Grim Reaper" stretched out to the princess, a knight descended from the sky, and with all his might, he repelled the "Grim Reaper" and protected the princess's country from the hands of the "Grim Reaper". However, due to the fact that the knight was seriously injured, after defeating the "Grim Reaper", he disappeared from the sky.

The hero's name was Tyre Cyrius.

......

"I really didn't expect it...... I didn't expect that kid to be such a knight!"

Today's night market seems to have opened exceptionally early, and Lin Qiu wandered around the royal capital for a whole day, and finally came here again. As soon as he sat down, he heard the boss's almost thumping of his chest.

"Yes, that's the way it is, sometimes no one believes the truth. ”

The diners on the side chimed in.

"What, you didn't believe him before!"

Another blind diner blamed him.

Today's night market is still immersed in a lively atmosphere, and even these diners are more cheerful than ever.

Because they all know that the great hero who is famous in the kingdom of Tarun once sat here and talked and laughed with them for a year!

"Here comes your fried bread, this time with a super spicy flavor. ”

After the boss finished dealing with the guests, he came to Lin Qiu with a plate of fried bread with a whole large bottle of pepper. This is the corner of the fried bread stall.

Lin Qiu looked up at the boss, this time he didn't order the super spicy fried bread.

The boss was looking at him with a smile: "I'll invite you today, little hero." ”

"I'm not comfortable eating right now, so help me pack. By the way, you recognized the wrong person. ”

"Mistaken person?"

The boss was a little stunned.

The tone of his voice, and the wounds all over his body, who else could Tyr Cyrus have?

"Yes, I recognized the wrong person. ”

Lin Qiu emphasized.

The boss obviously didn't believe it: "Then your injury is ......"

"I accidentally fell while blowing the wind on the city wall at night. ”

Lin Qiu gave the boss a look with his exposed left eye, and the boss smiled meaningfully: "This guest, I'm sorry, because you are a bit like Tyr, so I admit my mistake." I'm going to ask you for this fried bread as an atonement...... It's probably the first time you've come to the night market, right, I don't know what your name is?"

"Tuanzang. ”

Lin Qiu glanced at himself with bandages all over his body.

"Tuanzang?"

It's not like a local name.

"That's right, it's Tuanzang. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the diners gathered on them suddenly dispersed.

-- A foreigner named Tuanzang naturally couldn't arouse their interest.

They feasted on fried bread and poured a sip of wine from time to time, and the topic of their mouths was, of course, the great hero who saved the country, Tyre Cyrus.

Lin Qiu picked up the bag and walked towards Alyssa's wooden house.

At night, the sound of the castle being built was pervasive. There was still a considerable distance from here to Alyssa's hut, and there were busy soldiers walking by on both sides of the road.

-- Everything in this country is shattered and left in ruins.
