Chapter 49: The Funeral
After entering the villa, while the servants were placing their luggage, Wall quietly came to Charon's side.
"Sir, the body of the former head of the family is at the back of the courtyard, please move there. Wall fulfilled the butler's accusation, and there was not the slightest discoloration on his face.
However, from the fact that Wall did not mention Illya, it can be seen that he is not completely obedient in his heart.
Wall's attitude towards Charon, like that of Entre after awakening, is generally compliant, but some things are just endured, and occasionally resistant.
Charon also knew that Wall's heart was still towards the will of the Black Ring, but he didn't care, Odin's will had been broken up by him, and he couldn't reunite in a short time, and Saint Hugh could help him close the channel with the Black Ring.
Without the courage of the people behind the scenes, Charon has the power to suppress him, so naturally he can't become the climate.
Charon nodded in agreement with Wall's request, and then said, "Illya, come with me to see my father." ”
"Got it, brother. ”
Wall's eyebrows jumped, and after Charon glanced at him casually, he still suppressed the murderous aura of Illya in his heart, and silently led the way ahead.
Passing through the antechamber of the house and through the winding corridor, the trio came out of the small door at the back of the house and walked straight along the cobblestone path, soon to the back of the courtyard.
The front of the courtyard is planted with flowers and plants, and the back is a circular stone hall covering an area of about 400 square meters, and the roof is in the shape of a white round and full crown.
Eight white and white stone pillars surround it, the top of the stone pillar is cylindrical, the base is a calf-high cube, each pillar is carved with two angels singing oppositely, the angel's wings are stretched back, and the soles of the feet are stepping on auspicious clouds.
This should have looked like a bright and harmonious picture, but now it looks a little gloomy, there is a stone platform in the center of the stone hall, where the butcher Ente, who once made countless people in awe, is sleeping, his face is pale, without the slightest fluctuation of life.
Before bringing the Charon here, Wall had already retreated. Charon and Illya entered the stone hall, both staring at Ente's body in silence.
Illya's expression was complicated, because this man, all the family members she didn't remember how she looked at them were dead, and her life had changed dramatically. But it is also his maintenance that he will not be cleaned up by Steward Wall.
For Ente, Illya still hates, but she can't measure how much she hates Ente, and the enemy is dead, and in what way she should hate.
Compared to Illya, Charon is very indifferent, except for the memories of his predecessor, he has not been in contact with Ente for a long time, and there is no bad feeling or extra good feeling.
Just seeing that countless men who had worked hard for him after an order were so lonely after death, he was inevitably a little touched in his heart.
If Ente is strong enough, he will not be invaded by Odin's resentment, his temperament will not be distorted, and he will not slaughter the family of the beloved of his youth.
If Ente was strong enough, he wouldn't have been devoured by the Black Ring, but there was no solution.
If he is strong enough, he can reach the peak of the Great Knight with his own strength, and it is not a problem to live for another hundred years, not like now, he has died in his early forties.
All the mistakes come down to being that he is too weak!
The reason why Charon commented so is because he has experienced similar helplessness, the struggle under powerlessness is meaningless, and the pain of the weak can only be deeply experienced in order to never forget to become stronger.
In fact, he himself was a weak person, and if it weren't for the strength of the Black Ring, Steward Wall would not be able to deal with him at all. Without real strength, no matter how fierce he is, the deterrence of Wall will pale in comparison.
What he needs is not glory and wealth, nor monstrous power, nor the freedom that some spiritually empty aristocratic children want to pursue, all he needs is strength!
"Illya, let's go. ”
The sense of urgency in Charon's heart burned completely, more intense than when he first embarked on the knightly path, and even more intense and crazy than when he hit the knightly barrier.
"Brother, don't you say something to your father?" Compared to her, Charon and Enteke are directly related by blood.
"All I need to do is show him that I can be stronger. ”
After Charon finished speaking, he left without looking back, and Illya glanced at Ente, followed by Charon, and exited the stone hall
The Del family is often very strong and domineering in getting along with other big forces, but in normal times, the Del family is still extremely low-key, and only the elites in the upper echelons of society, as well as the transcendents, know what kind of behemoth the Del family is.
The funeral of the head of the Del family is not very grand, and there is no requirement for many people to come to send the spirit, and the funeral is not necessarily held at the headquarters of the Del family.
Despite this, the day after Charon arrived in Peter, a large number of people gathered at Ente's funeral, and the procession was large and long, attracting the attention of the inhabitants of Peter.
The black coffin contained Ente's body and was placed on a luxurious and noble dark gold hearse, with eight black horses in two rows, pulling the hearse in unison.
Charon and Illya, as the children of Ent, naturally stood in front of the hearse and led the whole team forward. The others, whether they were the two Grand Knights of Volrenor, or other subordinates, or the local nobles and officials of Peter City, could only follow behind the hearse.
In order to prevent the Flying Wing Kingdom from breaking the rules during the time of Ente's death, Casio has rushed to the border overnight, and Stien has also gone to the other three rebel areas to suppress the scene and stabilize the riot within a controllable range.
Dressed in black, Charon stood in front of the procession, marching slowly but firmly, and the crowds on both sides of the street did not affect him, not even the distance between his steps was the same.
However, Illya, who was one position behind him, showed a hint of nervousness in her eyes, as a blood clan, but acting in broad daylight and in front of so many people, which made her feel a little weak.
However, her brother fed her breakfast, and now her body is warm, her heartbeat and breathing are stable, and she is a high-level blood clan that is not afraid of the sun, and no one will find out her identity.
"Billy, what kind of person do you say this is, to let the noble lords who are rarely seen on weekdays come to send the spirits?" said a man on the side of the road to his co-worker in amazement.
"It's not very clear, I heard that the surname is Del, and it is estimated that it is a big noble. Don't look at it, let's go back to work. Billy dragged the person who asked the question into the store, and if the boss found out that they were lazy, they would probably have their wages deducted again.
"Wait a minute, that girl is so beautiful, why won't you let me look at it for a while?!"
"Those who are too far away from us, or do our things in a down-to-earth manner, can we get ahead one day. ”
Whatever the passers-by thought, the procession was like a long queue that circled through the main streets of Petertown and eventually reached the city's cathedral.
This is not a church of the church, but a resting place for the dead, behind which are patches of cemeteries.
The church staff sang a requiem, and the voice of tranquility wafted through the church, and everyone had no distracted thoughts at this moment, and sang together in a low voice to see off the deceased.
Standing in front of the wooden coffin, Charon's lips moved slightly, and while feeling peaceful, there was also a flame burning in his soul, becoming more and more violent...... top: Dizzy and dizzy at half past eleven, I thought I was going to owe more, but I didn't expect to sleep for half an hour, and I was in good spirits after getting up, and I finally got better. There are classes tomorrow morning and afternoon, or more in the evening.
