Chapter 36: Our Ideals, Our Skies
At night, inside the church in the village of Cansai. Esya, Genosis, Elusa, Blake, and Roy were busy making dinner.
Asya still seems to have something to explain, so she hasn't left yet.
It was clear to all that Generosis had changed, from the lifeless feeling at the beginning, to a guardian with infinite zeal.
Yes, brothers are to shoulder the heavy responsibilities side by side, that is brothers.
Yes, the lover must be guarded with a sense of responsibility, and that is the other half of life.
After everyone had eaten their fill, at Asya's request, they went outside to the meadow. This meadow, originally a building, once fought here by Geraint and Douglas, was razed to the ground here, and half a year later, it became the current meadow
Esya told the group to lie down on the grass. It's summer, and it's hot, but it's very comfortable to lie on the grass.
Esya reclined, supporting herself with her right elbow, looked at several young men, and asked:
"What are your ideals?"
Originally, the big village of a few hundred people, after only twenty or thirty people left, became very barren, and Asya, as the top powerhouse, was present, and he was not afraid that others would eavesdrop.
The four of them shifted their gaze to Asya, who smiled:
"Roy, you talk about it first. β
Roy was stunned, then said, "I suggest everyone introduce themselves, otherwise no one will know what the origin of this ideal is." β
Aisya was also stunned, but nodded in praise:
"Okay, then you come first, Roy. β
Roy sorted out his emotions and said:
"I am from the Benlei Empire, and I am the son of Frey, the emperor of the Benlei Empire. In other words, I am the prince of the Benlei Empire. β
"Growing up, my mother doted on me very much, which led to my very cowardly personality, and no matter what I did, I shrank behind my mother. I can't decide anything myself. β
"A few days ago, my mother made my father angry, but my mother did nothing wrong, but my father sent someone to hunt me down, and if it weren't for Uncle Veltis, I would have died long ago. β
"I used to be, how bright and great my father's image in my heart was, but when I saw those synthetic beasts, I was stunned, I thought that except for the Benlei Empire, no country had that level to produce synthetic beasts in batches. Those synths are supposed to be here to hunt me down. It turned out that my father was such a mad man. β
"My dream is to defeat my father and become the new emperor of the Benlei Empire, and to seek justice for my mother. β
"That's the end of my statement, thank you. β
Esya was also familiar with Frey's personality, and probably had seen through Frey's lies, but he didn't say anything.
"So, who wants to speak next?" asked Asya, who thought there was no problem.
Blake said, "I'll do it!"
"I come from the royal kingdom of Angel, the village of Cansai, which is the land under our feet. Genosis and I grew up orphans. β
"Since childhood, we have been raised by the priests and nuns of the church, however, more than half a year ago, Lord Asya you know, there was a magic experiment explosion near here, and one of the experimental subjects ran out and killed the priests and nuns of the church, so my ideal for a while ago was to work hard to cultivate, and then find out the mastermind behind the explosion of the magic experiment, and then take revenge. β
"But today I realized that I was naΓ―ve. Blake paused, "I have one more ideal now, that is, with my brother, share the heavy responsibility, no matter what his ideal is, I will go firmly with him." β
Blake then added, "Genosis, my brother!"
"Who's next?"
"I'll do it. Seeing that Generosis didn't have the urge to speak, Elusa spoke first.
"My dream is to be better than Genosis. β
"Ah?!ββh
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
"Generosis is a guardian knight, and he wants to protect me for the rest of his life, but I can't let him guard me. That's not going to work. My ideals are stronger than his, and that's because I'm a magician who belongs only to him, and I'm his strongest weapon. β
"A spear and a shield are combined, and it is absolutely impossible to have a shield without a spear. So, since he is my shield, I am his spear. For him to be able to open the spear of heaven and earth. β
After listening, Roy only had envy in his eyes. Blake and Asya stood in awe, stood up, and sat down with a knightly salute to Elusa.
In the end, it was Genosis' turn.
Blake sneered awkwardly: "Brother, don't you want to say it, you see, your little girlfriend has said it." β
Genosis shook his head: "My protection of her should be reduced to responsibility, not ideal, and my ideal, you listen slowly." β
"My name is Geneross. Janosis imitated Roy's "speech" and said.
"I come from the village of Cansai in the royal kingdom of Angel, which is the land under my feet. This sentence is a parody of Blake.
"Blake and I have not had enough to eat and never read since we were children, but there are not a few orphans like us in the world, and some children from poor families are similar to us. So, I've been thinking about what I can do to make the world no longer have orphans like me. β
"So, my ideal, is that I want to set up a mercenary group, and then I want to establish a mercenary academy so that all orphans can support themselves. β
Esya smiled awkwardly, "That's why you avoided becoming a knight before?"
After hearing this, Blake almost burst into tears, and said movingly, "Why didn't you say it earlier, my brother." β
Everyone was stunned, it turned out that only the ideal of Genosis was the most selfless and compassionate.
After a moment, Asya thought for a moment, and then asked, "Genosis, do you really think so?"
Genosis nodded incredulously.
Asya pondered for a moment, then said, "It's better to do this, I'll give you a plan." β
Geneosis said, "Wait, Your Highness Asya. I wish I could be your student. β
Esya said embarrassedly: "Haven't you and Blake become my third brother's students?" Blake smiled awkwardly: "I have always called His Highness Viltis a teacher, but he has always called Lord Viltis, obviously from the bottom of my heart, I don't recognize His Highness Viltis as a teacher." β
Aisya thought for a while and said: "But I have some things to investigate, and I can't teach you during this time, although it is true that I am not as good as I am to let Veltis teach you the matter of guardian knights." β
Genosis pleaded repeatedly, and Esya nodded, "Okay." β
The reason why Asya agreed was because he remembered the way Genosis looked at him when he saved the four people today.
Like a devout believer looking at the image of God.
Asya then reveals his plan for Genosis.
"You are now ten years old, I can use my authority to go to the Knight Temple to erase your registration information in the Imperial Knight Temple, so that you can go and become a mercenary, of course, after erasing the registration information, the Empire will no longer provide you with any money. β
Blake wondered, "In that case, aren't we knights?"
Aisya shook her head and said, "No, you are still knights, but you are no longer part of the royal nobility. Therefore, Veltis and I can still teach you the knowledge of knights. β
Blake's mind flickered. If Genosis decided to become a mercenary, he would have to go with him.
"My plan and advice to you is that after reaching the sixth order before the age of eighteen and having enough strength, then your mercenary group should also be stable, and then you can build a mercenary academy. You're right, the Guardian Knight should not only watch the present, but also the future. β
What Aisya means by this sentence is that guarding the present is about the people around you, and watching the future is about the whole world.
Then, Asya asked, "Roy, what are you going to do? You need a partner too. Roy shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "I could be chased by synths at any time by my side, and I don't want to bother my partner." β
Esya shook her head: "You guys just run far, the border of the Angel Imperial Kingdom is relatively chaotic, if you want to settle down, then let's go to the Shengyao Empire together, it is relatively stable over there, and Frey's minions should not be able to extend that far." β
Then Asya suddenly asked, "Do you know why I suddenly found you?"
Everyone was suddenly stunned, obviously, Asya was not coming to them for no reason. Originally, Genosis was very strange, and news came from the imperial capital that Asya had given up her position for no reason and disappeared. This morning he suddenly appeared in front of his eyes again.
Esya deceived everyone and said, "Blake, do you remember that magic experiment bomber?"
Blake nodded. "How could it not be remembered. β
Esya shook her head, continued to lie, and said: "Regarding that experiment, I found something amazing, but I couldn't investigate it head-on, so I discussed it with Veltis and decided to resign from the imperial state, and the third brother is going back to the imperial capital in the future, so I can't teach you anymore." That's why I've come to tell you about it. So don't go back to the Coniferous Fortress either. And after I tell you, I'm going to hide my identity and investigate what I should investigate. β
The crowd believed this, believing that Esya, as a Templar, adhered to the basic rules of the knighthood and would not think that Esya was lying to them.
How did Genosis know that before Asya came, there was a shocking battle with Vertis.
"I came here to bring you something that Veltis had left for you, but I happened to see you surrounded by monsters, which is why this morning's situation is here. β
Asya took out three Void Rings and gave them to Generosis, Black, and Roy, one for each person. Esya said: "This is the Ring of Inheritance, a special Void Ring, there are six layers of space in it, and every time you improve your strength, you can open an additional layer and obtain the inheritance inside." For example, when you are in the second order, you will be able to open the second layer of the Ring of Inheritance. β
"Viltis, he is very good to you, and put all the content that he wants to teach you into the Inheritance Ring, of course, there are some contents in your Inheritance Ring of Geneross, I have already helped you change it before I came, after all, my understanding of the guardian knight is not comparable to that of the third brother. Therefore, the three of you should not live up to your expectations of the third brother. And, Geneross, since you have decided to become my student, you must not disappoint my expectations. β
Genesis asked, "And asking us to go to the Holy Yao Empire is also the decision of His Highness Veltis?"
Esya was stunned in embarrassment, and made a mistake: "Yes, because it is not so easy for the people of the Benlei Empire over there to find Roy." β
Lying is something Esya has never done. So it's relatively unskilled, and it's full of mistakes, but if you let others say that Asya is lying, no one will believe it.
The three of them nodded and took the Ring of Inheritance. Esya was about to beckon everyone to go to the church to rest, but she saw Geneosis stand up, stretch out a hand, and say, "Come." β
Elusa understood what he meant first, and reached out and pressed it on his hand. Blake and Roy also reached out and pressed their hands on it.
Geneross looked at the stars in the sky and said, "Three-two-one! Hey, we're partners!"
"This is our ideal, this is our sky!" the three of them also followed Generosis to look at the sky, listening to Genesis shout everyone's oath.
