Chapter Seventy-Nine: Catherine's Farewell
In today's military meeting, the members of the adventure group are not the protagonists, and inviting them to the meeting is only a polite formality, and no one will pay attention to them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although Duke Greenfar's salute to Pannith just now temporarily attracted some people's attention, he was quickly attracted by the appearance of the Farrar Knights and the ensuing entanglement of interests, so when the men and women of the adventure group left early, no one noticed their departure. Of course, they are not the protagonists, it doesn't matter if they don't come today, let alone leave early, no one will be unhappy about this, and no one will be able to stop them.
Before stepping off the high platform, the knight girl turned around for the last time, took a deep look at Prince Nicholas, who was still using the number of imperial troops as a bargaining chip, in exchange for more benefits from other clans, and then glanced at the old knight Greenfahr, who was standing straight behind Nicholas, although every action was full of military temperament, but there was a little gloomy and helpless old knight Greenfahr, and couldn't help but shake his head silently. In fact, before the advent of Panis, For a period of time after Catherine herself was promoted to a gold-level professional, Prince Nicholas had invited her more than once, whether it was a private marriage proposal, or in the name of the empire to invite her to return to the Farraar Empire to rebuild the Field family and continue the glory of the Field family, there have been several times, and even in the last negotiation, Nicholas somehow knew about Catherine's debts, so he made a promise on that occasion that as long as Catherine returned to the Empire, the Imperial Family would pay off all her debts for her within a few years, but even so, the answer was still no。
Catherine knew very well that the Farrar Empire had taken a fancy to her potential, a twenty-three-year-old gold-level knight, the future development potential was undoubtedly very large, and the possibility of being promoted to a legend was very high. Throughout the entire Ferrar Empire, there are a total of seven Legendary-level professionals who serve the Empire, but only two are soldiers, and these two are the only two Legendary-level knights in the living legends of the Yarra world. Therefore, in order to increase the number of Imperial Legendary knights again, and to increase the strength of the Imperial Army by leaps and bounds, the Farrar Empire will use such a low profile to woo her before she is promoted to Legend, which is equivalent to a risky investment. However, it is a pity that although the posture of the Farraar Empire is very low, and the conditions put forward are also very high, and even acquiesced to the request for the marriage of Prince Nicholas, Catherine finally chose to refuse.
It's not because of how much Catherine hates Nicholas, in fact, Nicholas is still very successful as an imperial prince, handsome, well-educated, prominent, bright in the future, steady in character, quick in thinking, determined, and knows how to balance and make trade-offs, and even knows how to think about others in some cases, it is precisely because of his countless merits that his teacher, the legendary professional, willingly follows him to protect and guide him. Being pursued by such a man, although the purpose of the suitor is not pure, even if the woman being pursued does not accept it, I am afraid that she will not really dislike the other party, and Catherine is no exception.
Therefore, Catherine doesn't hate Nicholas, she just doesn't like this kind of person, but Nicholas's conditions are too tempting, and the things that the three generations of the family have carried can be easily solved, which is undoubtedly a very tempting bargaining chip for the knight girl, and even says that she doesn't need to marry Nicholas, she just needs to return to the Farraar Empire to serve in order to realize this long-cherished wish. Catherine hesitated for a long time, and almost couldn't help but agree a few times, but after careful consideration, she still refused, because she knew that returning to the Farrar Empire, she would have to be involved in politics that she did not like, like the old knight Greenfar, and had to wield her sword for unjust purposes, and finally become as ugly as those who compete for interests on the high platform.
The girl always remembered what Nelly had said, and when Nelly left the Farrar Empire, she had publicly said a message to all the knights, which has been recorded in the historical records of all forces except the Farrar Empire, and has been regarded as the truth by countless knights who do not belong to the Farrar Empire. She said: "Knights are born in war, but the purpose of knight's existence should not be to perpetuate war, on the contrary, the purpose of a true knight's existence should be to quell war." We swear to be kind to the weak, we swear to fight evil, we swear to fight all wrong, we swear not to harm the innocent, these are the vows we made when we became knights, oaths engraved in the depths of our souls, and can never be erased. But look back at what we did, we brandished our weapons, we started a war, but the object of the war was not evil, but the innocent people and soldiers of other countries, and we stood behind the weak, not the weak who needed help, but the power of a country. Our butcher's knife is swung at the weak, our actions are evil, we have been making mistakes, and we are hurting the innocent in every battle. Fighting with other nations has yielded us countless rewards and medals, but those are not glory, but endless shame, each of which tells us that we are fighting an unjust war, that we are sinners with innocent blood on our hands. So, I finally woke up today, I want to correct my own mistakes, from now on, I will leave the army, I will leave my country, I will spend the rest of my life to atone for my sins, to regain my faith, to fight like a true knight again, for justice, for justice, for true honor, I will do my best for the rest of my life to eliminate all wars, and do my best to protect every innocent people, until I finally fall, I swear again......"
"I am ashamed that I have hesitated for the benefit they threw away, and I hereby swear again......" Catherine looked calmly at the people who were still pestering for profit not far away, and looked at the heir to the empire known as the knightly kingdom, and muttered to herself: " I will be kind to the weak, I will be brave against all evil, I will resist all wrong, I will never hurt the innocent, I will be faithful to the faith, humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, mercy, honesty, perseverance, justice, and I will abide by the virtues of these knights until I finally fall. ”
"It all starts today. The knight maiden took one last look at Nicholas and Greenfar, and a smile appeared on her calm face: "Goodbye, Nicholas, goodbye, Falar, and, goodbye......" (To be continued.) )
