Chapter 257: Harmony
Seeing that Faras's face was full of guilt, emotion, and even sadness, Ryan gently kissed her on the face, and then said: "Fani, I hope you understand one thing, you and I, me and Bart, are two completely different relationships, Bart used to be my comrade-in-arms, and you are my closest lover forever."
"When we retreated from Thor's Fortress to the Imperial Capital, we were attacked by the Clay Clan, and Bart was unfortunately killed in battle. I've always been haunted by this, because if I had the power I have now, I would never have allowed this to happen. ”
"It was this incident that made me feel that my strength was not strong enough, even though I could kill thousands of orcs in Thor's fortress, but I still couldn't protect the people around me in this chaos, because I lacked a kind of dominance, yes, the power to control the whole situation, as powerful as Victor's forbidden spell. ”
When Ryan said this, he looked at Faras, who seemed to understand what he meant, and smiled, and continued: "This sounds ridiculous, doesn't it, a little junior magician, who still thinks about battlefield dominance in his head, hehe." ”
"No, in my heart, you will always be the strongest!" Faras shook her head and said to Ryan, "My Ryan will always be the best, and no one can compare to you." ”
Ryan gently pinched Faraz's face and said with a smile: "I'm honored, Fani, I'm so lucky to be praised by the Imperial Capital Rose!"
"Nasty!" said Farass as she gently slapped Ryan's hand away, a little shyly.
"Promise me one thing, okay?" Ryan said slowly, looking at Faras.
"Hmm. Faras didn't ask Ryan what he had promised, and he agreed.
"Why, don't you even ask me what I promised you?" Ryan said with a smile.
Faras rubbed her small nose with her fingers, and said disapprerovingly: "Anyway, you won't lie to me, besides, I'm all yours, why are you afraid of lying to me?"
"Haha, Fani, you rarely have this kind of expression, like a little girl who hasn't grown up yet. Ryan laughed and said, "Well, you're right, husband and wife are one, in fact, the sentence itself just now is that I asked the wrong question." In fact, Josha is just a wish for me, I hope she can live well, it is nothing more than hoping to meet the hopes of her former comrades-in-arms before they die, and your whole arrangement is also for the imperial capital itself, we are not wrong. ”
Seeing that Farass was about to speak and stopped, Ryan gently stopped Faras's words with his fingers, and he continued: "Josa is a simple girl, but because of the injustice of the world to herself, she turned to hate the world, what is the difference between this and those necromancers? So if you do something wrong, you must be punished, you don't have to affect the justice of the law because of my wishes, well, this sentence seems to be very sanctimonious when it comes out of my mouth, as if I did something against the law when I was incarnated as Fabia. ”
"You just know!" said Faras, angrily, "If you weren't the lord of Cassano and have great power, you'd be doomed a long time ago." ”
"Yes, when we don't have power, when we are at the bottom of this society, we pray for the justice of the law, we hate the privileged nobles, and we even swear to change everything that is unfair in this society. However, when we are in this aristocratic class, or become the privileged type of person in this world, we will enjoy this power very much, and slowly forget those previous wishes, people, this is so strange, in fact, we will almost all slowly change our mentality because of the environment we are in. ”
"Fani, do you remember the first time I followed you to the imperial capital? At that time I was still thinking about walking! But now, from Cassano to here, I have been riding in a comfortable carriage all the way, and there are countless people around me, all of whom are mainly based on me, and if I say a word, everyone can naturally walk together, but I am not used to the almost ascetic life before. ”
"Yes, it seems that only the most devout Holy Knights and Priests of Light will always hold on to their beliefs, even if their bodies turn into light smoke, even if their souls drift forever, they will still unswervingly move in their established direction, which is why I admire them, because I can't do it myself, Fani. ”
"Well, actually, we've all changed a little bit compared to before. "However, there is one thing I firmly believe you have not changed. ”
"Oh, what?" asked Ryan.
"That's what you want to do with people!" said Faraz smugly.
"Hey, how can you be so sure, aren't you afraid that I will change my mind? You know, there are a lot of women around me, as long as I hook ...... a little," Ryan said to Faras with a smile.
"Hmph, you don't come here, you also know that you hook your fingers, and those women around you will throw themselves into their arms, what Vivian, Adela, and that Sophie......" Faras said angrily: "Then why don't you hook it? You hook it, well, Vivian's body hasn't recovered yet, so do you want me to go out and call Sophie in for you, I think she is also full of fantasies about you!"
"Ah, the moonlight is pretty good today, oh, by the way, Fani, did you send someone to give Jonas their gifts?" Ryan didn't expect Faras to say this directly, but he couldn't stand Faras's methods, so he had to talk about other things.
"It's not coming, it's only afternoon, where does the moonlight come from?" Faras said as she spoke, secretly amused in her heart, she knew that Ryan was just talking casually, but in actual action, Ryan was still extremely loyal to himself, there are really not many such men now, unless it is those rigid guys from the Royal Knights or the Church of Light, just let Farath stay with that kind of man all day long, it is estimated that he will be suffocated.
Now that Ryan began to change the topic, Faras naturally would not continue to talk endlessly with Ryan on the original topic, so he followed Ryan's topic and said: "Don't worry, it's already gone, well, it's almost here this morning." ”
"It's a pity I can't see their faces when they receive this gift. Ryan said with some regret: "Originally, the two of us got married, and they should have given them a generous gift, but I gave them one first, alas, this business has lost money!"
"I hate it, you little money fan. Faras leaned against Ryan's body with a coquettish smile.
――――――*――――――*――――――*――――――*―――――― the edge of the South Talon steppe, the northern three forts of the imperial capital.
This is one of the three fortresses built by the imperial capital with huge manpower and material resources, and it is a fortress for the imperial capital to defend against enemies from the north, of course, this kind of fortress is only called so in the name, and it cannot be compared with the Thor fortress in any way in terms of solidity, but there are three fortresses that rely on each other in the endless steppe, which is enough to resist a medium-intensity attack from the north.
After a long day of fighting, the Three Northern Forts fell into a strange silence, the orcs left behind more than 8,000 corpses and retreated to their camp forty kilometers away, while the Jonas Legion stationed here was reassigned to another regiment, allowing the regiment that had suffered a whole day of hard fighting to retreat and reorganize.
Colin and Thomas did not have any embarrassed expression on their faces at all, because they had just learned a good news that supplies from the imperial capital had arrived, and I have to say that under the personal auspices of Birmingham, the imperial capital army that was fighting on three sides this time was able to get timely support from the imperial capital, such as the Jonas army in the north, which had received three batches of ballistae in a row, and in today's daytime battle, these ballistas shone brightly, and I don't know how many orcs were killed.
Of course, the faintly excited expressions on Colin and Thomas's faces were not entirely due to the supplies, in fact, what they were most looking forward to was a big gift from the magic items made by Ryan himself. Colin and the others couldn't believe it when they first heard the news, after all, the time was too short, but they didn't doubt their regiment leader Ryan, because Ryan had never lied to them.
So when Colin and Thomas arrived outside Jonas's tent together, they could already hear a noise of envy and ostentation, and now the other of their gifted colleagues were showing off their magic armor and magic weapons to the rest of their comrades.
Colin rushed in impatiently, and was greeted by several large wooden boxes, several of which had been opened, and their leader, Jonas, was taking a set of armor from which one of his own, and it could be seen from the light blue halo on the armor that it was definitely a set of armor blessed with some kind of secret method.
"Ah, what about mine, what about mine?" Colin hurriedly shouted at Jonas, who was his superior, but in an informal setting, they were on good terms, perhaps because they had both fought alongside Ryan.
"Well, see for yourself. Jonas used his mouth to snort, and then began to take out his own set of armor one by one, and slowly hung it on the armor wooden frame, his own soldiers wanted to come forward to help, but Jonas refused with a smile, he wanted to enjoy this happy process alone.
Colin's eyes widened as he looked at a large wooden box with his name nailed on it, and hurriedly walked over, but Thomas behind him was more anxious than him, and directly pulled Colin away, rushing to another wooden box with Thomas's name first, he grabbed the crowbar and began to pry the wooden box, while Colin cursed in his mouth, and also grabbed another crowbar and began to pry his own box.
