Chapter 266: Ask Yourself
Birmingham's footsteps did not pause in the slightest, even galloping, his eyes were more determined than ever, and he knew that he had to do an impossible task. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Stop a war, a war that has been planned for a long time, one is your home country, one is the country where you stop the most on your journey, one is where your female knights are, and the other is where your little magician reveres the most.
Ella, Betley, the Holy See, the Eastern Capital Alliance, and the Starr Empire, almost all the great powers of the pan-continent met here and met at the beginning of their adventures.
Birmingham has to lament the trick of fate, or maybe it's just a prank by Tyrese, the goddess of creation.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" The female knight Tina was keenly aware of the changes in her master's heart, and the journey along the way had made the female knight a little overwhelmed, and also made her originally hope that her master could regain the glory of the family a lot less, especially her master has become what she is now, if she can choose again now, she would rather stay in that dilapidated old house all the time, and her master and little Ellie have been living peacefully in that place.
"No, I just didn't expect that our starting point would end in this journey. ”
Birmingham was a little emotional, looking at the scenery around him, the sun brought this nobleman not warmth, but heavy memories, although there are things in these memories that he does not want to recall, but more of a magnificent journey.
"The trajectory of fate is the most mysterious power of the goddess, my foolish master, and this is only a small willfulness of the goddess. The little magician Ellie replied to her master very optimistically, so that the accompanying Master Sempu couldn't help but look sideways.
"Also, it's just a small willfulness of the goddess. Birmingham's smile was made by the words of the little magician Ellie, and the willfulness of the goddess was probably unimaginable for them mortals.
"Lord Birmingham, although it is a bit of a disappointment to disturb your time to remember your past, I still can't understand why it is you, of course, this is not a mockery or ridicule, but I really can't agree that Lord White Sage will put his hope on you. Master Samp finally spoke his inner thoughts, and it was clear that the words of Corvo the Grey Sage when they left had shaken the scholar of the Council of Black Horn a little, and with the addition of the four Sages, this Semp Master no longer had the courage or even the confidence to go with them.
"To be honest, I don't know, just as the Sword Saint Simmel chose me to be the ambassador of Ultramarines in the first place, I don't understand that the White Sage would see me as someone who could stop this war. Birmingham stopped and looked back at the uneasy Samp Bachelor.
"So, isn't it good to give up, war will always come, and a few of us alone can't change the situation in this mortal world. ”
Yes, as Semp said, wars never end, as long as humanity develops, then wars will not end one day, and Birmingham, as an aristocracy, knows this even more.
"If you can't do it, don't you do it in the first place?" Birmingham's calm tone was brewing with different emotions, as if in the face of Master Senpu's question, the down-and-out aristocrat already had the answer in his heart.
"Knowing that this is an impossible task, it will be more costly to keep going. ”
"I haven't tried it, how do you know it's impossible to succeed. ”
"Experience, data, and reality, aren't these enough, Mr. Birmingham, although I think you are indeed a good nobleman, and you also have a certain strength, but now your strength does not play any role in this war at all, a mid-level warrior, or a warrior who stabilizes his soul with the help of the power of the demon god, how to fight against those beings who are called the peak, and the countless armies. "The scholar's mindset allows him to confidently raise one problem after another that is impossible to solve on their own.
"You want to go back, to the Eastern Metropolis Alliance?" the intention of Master Semp's words had already been revealed, or perhaps because the Eastern Capital Alliance was no longer neutral, the scholar's courage to continue had been exhausted.
"It's just beyond my power to continue, and the existence of the Gray Sage has already foreshadowed the fact that the Eastern Capital Alliance is no longer neutral, as a member of the Eastern Capital Alliance, it is necessary for me to return to the Alliance, where the Alliance provides us with shelter, we naturally have to repay the Alliance. "This is the way of life of Master Samp, no, it should be said that it is the rule of the various organizations of the Eastern Capital Alliance, they can conduct all kinds of research with peace of mind under the protection of the sage, even if some research violates taboos, and some theories are denounced as heresy, but because of the existence of sages, they can be safe and sound, and improve their knowledge without scruples, and now that this comfort has been threatened, it is reasonable for Master Sempu to retreat.
"What about the White Sage?" interjected the little magician Ellie.
"Lord White Sage is not the ruler of our Black Horn Council, and in the Wizards Association, four sages are enough to deprive a sage of his qualifications, in other words, from the moment Lord Gray Sage appeared, the White Sage is no longer a sage of the Star Spirit Tower admired on the mainland, but an ordinary magician. ”
"It's so ruthless. Tina, the female knight, couldn't help but speak.
"Ruthless, this is just the way the alliance survives, every country has its own way of survival, I think Mr. Birmingham should know best, just like the Ella Empire's way of survival is to strengthen itself through wars, and the alliance is to obtain unparalleled cohesion through shelter. ”
"So is this your choice, Master Sempu, I didn't expect to say goodbye between us. ”
"Mr. Birmingham, friendships don't last long, just like you and Queen Flona, and what seems to be a strong friendship is nothing more than wishful thinking on your part. ”
"After being taught, then we will meet again, Master Sempu. ”
"Then after the war is over, Mr. Birmingham would like to come to our Eastern Metropolis Alliance, which is the most tolerant place on the whole continent. ”
The leaves rustle in the wind, weaving a brisk movement, but beneath the music is the scene of departure, first General Delian has found what he has to do, and now it is the treaty of the alliance that the Semp Bachelor has forced to make, is it really as the scholar said, the friendship of the water will not last long.
"Master?"
"Tina, Ellie, do you think we can complete this task?"
"Of course, my stupid master, I am the most gifted magician, and with my help, we will definitely get the job done. ”
"Although the name of the most genius is a bit exaggerated, but the master we will always accompany you. ”
The oath of the knight and the magician seemed to be repeated many times in front of the nobleman's eyes, but not a single loss of words, no matter where he was, it was his knight and magician who had always followed him, but this time Birmingham suddenly wanted to go alone, and silently complete this impossible task alone.
"Master, we will always be together, no matter what lies ahead. ”
"It's too obvious that the stupid master wants to go alone. ”
"yes, I thought I was well hidden. Birmingham responded with a smile, and the sudden thought vanished in an instant as the two sang and harmonized, the nobles needed knights and magicians, and Birmingham also needed Tina and Little Ellie, and this truth had not changed.
"Well, with knights and magicians, we still lack a character. Birmingham looked at the end of the jungle, and the sound of horses neighing and steel colliding became more and more distinct, all of which told Birmingham that behind this dense forest was the meat grinder in the mouth of the gray sage, the Colosseum of the four empires.
"It's a maid, my dear master. ”
"A stupid maid. ”
"Yes, we still lack a maid, can a nobleman without a maid be called a real nobleman?" At that moment, the smile on Birmingham's lips returned to the moment when he had just stepped out of the house.
Unbridled and courageous, this is the family motto of the Richard family, this is the way of life in Birmingham, even if there is death ahead, he, Richard Birmingham never fears, never flinched.
War is just around the corner, and the aristocratic boy is ready.
