Chapter 20: Moonlight Like Water (6)

Yes, I once thought that this relationship would last forever, so sweet, so passionate. At that time, I was so proud that I moved out of the small student dormitory of the college and lived with Wen Na.

Lorist was both a student and a swordsmanship instructor at the Dawn Academy, and because he was not treated well by the silver teachers in the academy, he was too lazy to live in the training dormitory assigned to him by the academy, so as not to be looked down upon. has always been nested in the cadet dormitory at the beginning of his crossing.

When did the relationship between the two slowly change? Was it because her vindictive spirit was stagnant in the first dispute that the Black Iron Peak could not break through, or was it because she pestered herself to design two sets of evening dresses for her so that she could have face when she attended the party, and only to say that she was so vain in love with her, and she was very angry? After that day, she found an excuse not to go back to her home in the East Side, and bought another building behind the store, which was extremely luxuriously decorated, as the headquarters of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce in the city of Morent. She lived there and held parties, making it one of the most famous salons in the city of Moldon.

And last year, after the last lingering between the two, after the extreme joy, she lazily leaned into her arms and talked about her plans for her future. She hoped that she could break through to the Silver Rank as soon as possible and become the House Knight of House Windsor, so that she could send herself to the old territory of the family to lead the rebels.

Now the situation there is very good, the new lords are anxious about the riots in the territory, busy fighting fires everywhere but with little success, the military expenses of quelling the chaos have greatly exceeded the income of the territory, the new lords have to increase the expropriation and oppression of the lords, and the poor lords began to defect to the rebels, which further increased the difficulty of the new lords' suppression.

The last news from the Somme Knight said that the rebels had now turned their attention to the new lords' old territories, preparing to set the new lords on fire in their backyards and put the final decisive weight on the already skewed balance of war.

Miss Wenna hopes that Lorist will become the Silver Knight of the family and establish a meritorious service in the war to regain the family territory, so that she can marry Lorist without being ridiculed for the man she likes is just a black iron swordsman. In the future, Wenna can entrust the family territory to Lorlist, and then hand it over when her younger brother grows up. And she only needs to take care of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce and the specialty store, and provide a steady stream of logistical support to the family. I believe it won't be long before the Windsor family can thrive again.

The request of the jade man in his arms made Lorist want to agree at that moment, but a wisp of pride and persistence from the bottom of his heart made him stop. In front of him, a sturdy nobleman appeared in front of him, standing with a two-handed sword, proudly proclaiming: except for the emperor of the Krissian Empire and his own elders, the Norton family, will not bow their knees to anyone.

This is the insistence of the original owner of this body, Locke, and the pride of the Norton family engraved in the soul. Lorist hesitated, becoming the House Knight of House Windsor meant that he would be responsible for the rise and fall of House Windsor, and he would also be on his knees before the mermaid badge.

Seeing that the lover was hesitant, the girl reached out to stroke his face, and said gently: "Locke, don't you plan for the future of the two of us? As long as your fighting spirit breaks through the Black Iron Rank, you can become the silver knight of the family, and no one can stop us from being together at that time......"

By the way, and vindictiveness, Lorist smiled bitterly. He couldn't tell the lover who was coquettish in his arms, and now he was cultivating the golden water duel handed down by the family in his previous life, and it all stopped at the peak of Ming Jin. It was the deepest secret of his heart that he could not share with anyone, not even his closest lovers. And the six-pointed star blood circulation that cultivates Dou Qi has become a big sieve, and he can't store a trace of Dou Qi, and it is very likely that he will not be able to break through the Black Iron Rank in his life.

He could tell the girl that he was the double gold teacher of the Dawn Academy, that he was invincible in the academy, and that he could single-handedly complete those mercenary tasks that even three silver peaks could not complete. But is this useful? The girl doesn't know how to fight, she only knows the traditional customs of the aristocratic family, and only when she becomes a silver swordsman or a silver knight, the family will place high hopes on her, thinking that she has a future for cultivation and can stand alone.

Unless it is a nobleman with few descendants, no nobleman will let his children who are unable to awaken their fighting spirit or have low fighting strength inherit the family title. Therefore, Miss Wen Na naturally thinks that her lover is outstanding in wisdom and talent, and his fighting strength is low. She would rather her Locke hadn't awakened her vindictiveness than that Lorist wore a black iron sign to hang out in front of people all day long. As long as Lorist doesn't go to the academy or the mercenary union, she wants him to take down the black iron fighting brand on his chest, so as not to be embarrassed and conspicuous.

Lorist hopes that the girl she loves the most can understand her, and there is no need to dwell on her black iron fighting spirit. It's okay for two people to be happy together, why care what others think. But he couldn't convince the girl that in the girl's world, if you have money, you should show off yourself with more fanfare, and the more you show off your family, the more face you have, because you are the head of the Windsor family, because in this way people will not forget the Windsor family. Therefore, she could not tolerate the discrediting of her family, and she hoped that Lorist would be the Silver Knight who would appear with her in front of people, rather than the black iron swordsman who would be ridiculed.

Just like the year before last, after Mrs. Windsor gave birth to the fatherless baby boy, Miss Winna ordered someone to take the baby away overnight and give it to any farmer. Even Mrs. Windsor failed to take a closer look at her child. This incident made Mrs. Windsor sad for a long time after giving birth, and she was about to go crazy. It wasn't until Lorlist's sympathy for a mother found out of sympathy for the baby that she arranged for Mrs. Windsor to visit her, that her sanity gradually returned to normal.

Lorist shook his head slowly, he told his lover that he could go to the soup for her, or he could leave for the old Windsor family territory immediately, not to lead, but to assist the Somme Knights and Heard Knights in commanding the rebels' war against the new lords. It's just that he cultivates the family fighting spirit, and he can't change anything else, and now he has lost contact with the family, so he can only wait. In a short period of time, he was afraid that he would disappoint the girl, and it would be impossible for him to break through the Black Iron Steps.

Also, he can't promise to be a family knight of House Windsor. Even if he is an outcast, he has to wait for the call of the Norton family, and cannot serve other families. Of course, this is just an excuse for Lorlist, as a time-traveler, his nature is to love freedom, and from his heart he resists the hierarchical aristocracy, and he cannot accept the so-called family rules and precepts. As he once said to the college's Shi Fatty, he hoped to buy a big house on the scenic Bryn Hill in the city of Morent, and live freely and happily with Wenna, this is Lorlist's wish.

The girl listened to Lorlist's answer, didn't say a word, got up, dressed, didn't turn her head until she went out, and said coldly: "Lorlist, you know in your own heart that you don't really love me, you are like those men, you say nice things in your mouth, but in fact you are just talking, what you really love is yourself, you have never thought about me......"

Lorist lay down on the bed weakly, did he love her? Of course he loved, this is the real love for someone in his two lives. In his previous life, he was forced by his parents to go on a blind date because he was old, and he got married in less than two months. A year later, they had a son, but the husband and wife respected each other but lacked passion, and their lives have been dull. It wasn't until after crossing that I really understood that the love described in the book was not fictional, love was a fierce and passionate fire, which made people willingly throw themselves into it and burn into ashes. Love means that you only have me in your eyes, and I only have you in my eyes.

When did this love become a one-sided effort without asking for anything in return, should the insistence and principles in one's heart be changed for love? Shouldn't love be two people who are considerate of each other and snuggle up to each other? Is it because I'm selfish or because her heart has changed? Lorist couldn't figure it out, and she didn't bother to think about it. Perhaps, it's a good idea to let both of you calm down before you have a good talk.

It's just that Lorist didn't expect that he would never see her at home again after that day, and even Susie came over when she needed a new design. When she went to the headquarters of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce by herself, she also excused herself to be busy, or she was in a hurry. Lorist thought she was messing with Miss's temper. Until that night, in the garden of the headquarters of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce, I saw her and the middle-aged nobleman snuggling together, smiling, beautiful and bright.

That night, she officially asked herself to break up. That night, my heart really hurt, indescribable, a suffocating feeling, my heart seemed to be split in half, and the severe pain was deeply engraved in the depths of my soul.

Lorist only remembered that when she stumbled in front of them that night, her smile froze and her face turned pale. It was the middle-aged nobleman who blocked her behind him with great grace, and asked a little puzzled, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Turning his head to look at the girl hiding behind him, he turned to look at himself again, and his expression began to become serious: "Who are you?

Lorist was speechless at the time, just pointing at the girl.

The girl's expression changed, and after hesitating for a while, she finally walked out from behind the middle-aged nobleman: "Locke, I'm really disappointed in you. You have your persistence, and you never want to wronged yourself in order to accommodate me. Although you have helped me the most and saved me and the Windsor family, I have thought about it for a long time and it is not appropriate for us to be together. For the sake of the future of the Windsor family, I can only choose to break up with you. You are a good person, please understand me. ”

Is this what it feels like to be betrayed? Heartbreaking......

Never expecting to get his first good guy card in this other world, Lorist wanted to fall to the ground and breathe heavily, the feeling of suffocation had made him breathless. But a faint pride in his heart supported him, he nodded firmly, turned around and staggered away.

Lorist can't remember how he got back, but he only knows that Rina, who opened the door, was frightened by her walking corpse-like self.

The next day Lorist was still groggy in bed, and Rina came in to say that a visitor had arrived. Then the middle-aged nobleman who had been with her last night appeared in front of him.

The middle-aged nobleman spoke softly, he told Lorist that he already knew the whole story, and although he was sympathetic to Lorlist, love was selfish, and he loved Winna so much that he couldn't blame her for it, so he could only say sorry to Lorlist. Now Wenna has proposed to Lorist to break up, and although Lorist has no words, at least she has no objection. In this case, he personally thinks that it is very inappropriate for Lorist to still live in Wenna's house. So this time I came to see what compensation Lorist needed, and as long as he could do it, he would definitely agree.

Only then did Lorist notice that the middle-aged nobleman had a gold firebird pattern fighting badge pinned to his chest. Gold, which represents the fighting spirit is the golden level, and the firebird, which can be regarded as the family badge pattern, also represents the fighting spirit is the fire attribute. Unexpectedly, this middle-aged nobleman with excellent demeanor turned out to be a master.

Lorist shook his head, and said hoarsely that he didn't need any compensation, thanked him for his kindness, and as for moving away, he didn't need his reminder that he would do it today. After greeting each other, the middle-aged nobleman politely took his leave.

Lorist simply packed a few clothes and left the place where he had stayed for three years, where he and her laughter, sweet words, mountain alliances, quarrels, awkwardness, pain engraved in the soul, and finally the good guy card.

Lorist moved to the Rook Tavern, rented a room on the third floor, and then commissioned his friend El to find out the details of the middle-aged nobleman.

Soon, the middle-aged nobleman's information was placed in front of Lorlist. The middle-aged aristocrat is named Luo Fei Fausta, thirty-eight years old, with one star of gold. He is the marquis of the Kingdom of Chigeda and is highly valued by the royal family. It is worth noting that his father was a cousin of the King of Chigda, who held the Janissaries of the Kingdom and was both a powerful military nobleman and His Royal Highness the Prince of the Kingdom of Chigeda.

The Marquis of Lopa had been ordered by the king to bring a shipment of gold and silver to the city of Morente last year to negotiate with the merchant alliance about the processing of gold and silver coins. Mu Ming took his wife to the store to buy clothes, and then met Miss Wenna, because they belong to the same kingdom, so they have a good relationship with each other. This Lord Luo Fei has stayed in the city of Morent for half a year after finishing his official business, and has launched a passionate pursuit of Miss Wenna.

"His wife doesn't know?" asked Lorlist.

"Yes. El said: "Not only do I know, but I also support it." Moreover, Miss Windsor and his wife are still very good friends, and they talk about everything. ”

The woman was sick. Lorist said in his heart.

El shook his head: "Forget it, brother. I've seen a lot of things between men and women. Men change their minds, women are pitiful, but men still have a chance to turn back. And a woman's change of heart is hateful, basically a path to the end, and there will be no turning back when she hits the wall. Besides, what do you compare with that marquis, your family background, your wealth, and your strength? You are no opponent. His Excellency was a man of good taste, and everyone praised him, and he was only thirty-eight years old, and he was a golden star, and his future was immeasurable, so that your lover would be attracted to him. ”

"To put it mildly, this Excellency is not the aristocratic prodigal son of the past who coveted beauty and wanted to gain both people and money, and knew that you were the lover of the eldest lady and found someone to ambush you or duel with you. He doesn't take you to heart at all, and you're not a level opponent in his eyes. Even if you want to duel with him, don't forget that he is a golden star, and you are just a black iron swordsman who can only bully us silver, you can't fight him. El's earnest advice.

Lorist was silent, and three days later, he signed up for an expedition to the Relic Islands at Dawn Academy. Perhaps, in his heart at that time, he was still expecting that after half a year, things would change when he came back. It's just that he came back, and what awaited him was still disappointment.
