Chapter 67: Where to Hate the Fire

......

......

......

Fighting is never a "good thing", as long as there is a fight, then there will definitely be people injured, some people will hurt, some people will lose their lives, plus the emotional factor is in it, from the result point of view, the battle has really led to too many misfortunes and tragedies.

But what is it that is guiding the humans of Southwell to fight like moths to a fire?

Fighting is exciting, it makes you understand your growth, and it's a way to live up to your beliefs.

"Reason to swing the sword......" Placing the calloused palm on the hilt of the sword, but looking out the window, thinking for a moment, the knight, whose expression had returned to normal, solemnly held one hand on the end of the breastplate, where the heart is, "Protect the peninsula, protect the people." That's why I'm a soldier and I'm standing here. ”

"Oh, very determined. ”

"But that's not why I pulled my sword out just now. "The look in his eyes is unwavering, and Kyle's mind is racing," hah...... If I really wanted to protect the peninsula and its people, I would never do such a foolish thing as wielding a blade at Lord Ikavia. ”

Sighing, the knight looked a little remorseful.

"Oh, how do I say that?"

"Of course, the development of the peninsula today is inseparable from the efforts of everyone, but without the guidance of Lord Ikavia, no matter how hard we work, we mediocre people will never be able to reach the current level, perhaps the peninsula has already become a leader under the command of the Brushken Empire. ”

"A peninsula without Ekavia is no longer a peninsula," these words were indeed Kyle's heartfelt words, however, the following words could see the entanglement in his heart, "So, drawing a sword to Lord Ekavia means ...... and the whole peninsula as an enemy. ”

After saying that, the knight showed a relieved expression.

"To be the enemy of the whole peninsula? Hmph -- it's never too much to compliment. Her eyes and smile grew cold, but Ikavia, who had received Kyle's "compliment", did not show a hint of joy, "If it is what you say, why would you fight me with a sword?

"Yes, that's it. The air around him became heavy with the female lord's words, but Kyle, who was under a lot of pressure, shrugged helplessly, "So as I said before, anger can make people lose their minds. ”

With his arms down, it would have been difficult to make even the slightest movement under Ikavia's strength, but Kyle could do it, and he even took two steps forward.

"But if I had to choose again, I'd draw my sword!

He almost shouted it.

"Oh?"

The peerless female lord's eyes wandered, and she seemed to have finally become a little interested in the knight's words, and no longer the feeling that she knew she was just casually saying it when she heard it.

At the same time, the pressure emanating from her body grows heavier, making Kyle almost suffocate as he still wants to move on.

- Hold on, now is the time to show your determination! You have missed an opportunity once, how can you miss a second time?

Knowing in his heart that this was a test given to him by Ikavia, under the pressure of an icy storm like the Far North Mountains, Kyle remained silent on the surface and stepped forward again.

――If you don't say what you think here, do you want to take the crux of your heart to the grave?!

"I want to know the truth! You're definitely hiding something from me, aren't you?" What came to mind was Alphonse's last two words before he died, and suddenly Kyle, who had never had more courage than ever before, stepped forward again, his fists clenched and he gasped heavily, but his mood was already clear.

"Alphonse said two words before he died, which I did not write on the report. His first words were, 'The only place where my loyalty can be trusted is the peninsula.'" ’”

Word by word, word by word, word by word, Kyle didn't know what kind of expression he would have when he repeated his brother's last words at this moment.

"Then, his second sentence was, 'The only one I love is ...... You. ’”

There was no need to guess or ponder, what should be the end of Alphonse's unfinished words, Kyle knew.

- What a fool, Alphonse! You fool! Silly brother! Is there a brother in this world who is more unresponsible than you? Death is death, and what do you want me to do if you leave such words? Where is the hatred for you all along?

Human beings do not lie at the last moment of life, and if Alphonse's last two sentences are true, then these two sentences mean two doubts, two possibilities.

The first is about his "betrayal", if his series of actions of stealing classified documents and defecting to the Brusken Empire are all for the sake of loyalty to the peninsula, combined with the information that the peninsula has gained over the years is more accurate than before, then does this mean that Alphonse is actually not a "traitor", but an "undercover agent"?

The second is about the "blood feud" of the Nubora family, if Alphonse has never forgotten the relationship with Kyle, then how could he, who has never had any conflicts with his family, do such a conscientious thing as "destroying the door"? In fact, there were too many doubts about this matter at that time.

"My brother, Alphonse, is not actually a traitor but an undercover agent sent by the peninsula to the land of the blue sea, and the truth of the bloody case that happened in 490 is actually a 'bitter ploy' created in order to win the trust of the enemy so that this 'great' undercover plan can succeed, right, Lord Ikavia, who planned all this, is the truth? ha...... Ha ha. ”

If these are true, then what am I to kill my brother who is alone and bears humiliation and burdens, and who never forgets the motherland and his relatives as an unforgivable enemy, and kills myself with my own hands?

"It's cruel...... Ha, for me, or for my brother, it's too cruel......"

Hate, hatred seems to have become a delusion and a ridiculous thing.

Anger, anger loses the direction it should go.

The crux of the matter is that Lord Ikavia, whom Kyle sees as omniscient and omnipotent, indispensable to the peninsula and its people, is in charge of all this. As the only person who knew that Alphonse was an undercover agent, combined with the slaughter of villages in the peninsula by the Blue Sea Realm, it was impossible for her not to know that Alphonse should be in that pirate camp.

Similarly, it is impossible for her not to know that the two brothers, who are burdened with "national hatred and family hatred", will definitely decide to die after seeing each other.

If this was something that Ikavia hadn't thought of and was just a coincidence, then the damn fate would have been too cruel, and if that was in her calculations......

The cruelest thing is that if these are her designs, she is just a "demon" who is happy to see her brothers kill each other due to misunderstandings. So, for whom is he wielding his sword? Heh, what is it for the "peninsula" and for the "people", but in fact those are all empty words.

Yes, there's only one reason Kyle is down the path he's down the road he's on.

"Lord Ekavia, if you may, I wish you could deny my speculation. ”

I don't know what kind of emotion it represents, tears that have not been seen for more than ten years finally burst out from the corners of the eyes of the resolute man at this moment.

He was waiting for her response.

......

......

......

That year,Kyle, who had already made a marriage contract with his childhood sweetheart, happened to know that there was such a person in this world.,At first he just laughed.,But when he really saw that person's demeanor,,He immediately understood that the world he was in before was so small.。

Alone from distant Gloriland, she crossed the plains, hills, swamps, forests, and even the central mountain range known as the "Moat", crossing almost the entire continent to the peninsula.

She righteously criticized the corrupt sheriff, led the mercenaries who were randomly cobbled together to defeat the bandits who had plagued the city for many years, and almost single-handedly foiled the conspiracy of the "underground mercenary world" against the capital of the flower moon.

Her name was Ikavia Trodu, the woman who later became Lord of the Flower Moon and formed the Peninsula Alliance.

"I definitely have to follow in her footsteps. ”

The moment he saw her, Kyle, who was just a "child of a family" who was just a hard-working man, couldn't help but be moved.

It's not a man's heart for a woman.

It was a human being struggling to survive in a pitch-black wilderness that finally saw the "light".
