Chapter 70: Stop, It's Not a Duel

"Your Excellency Francis, I don't want to duel with you now, I am unarmed at this time, and I have even lost my strength, such a duel is not fair to me, even if you win, I am afraid it will not be enough to gain glory for it."

William took a deep breath and said, at this time he didn't want to fight Francis, the environment didn't allow it, and his situation didn't allow it.

"If you don't duel with me, then I will automatically win." Francis the Brave withdrew his sword and said solemnly, not caring about his face in the slightest.

Medieval duels are a panacea for resolving disputes, since the collapse of the Western Roman Empire, Charlemagne re-established the state on the ruins of the Western Roman Empire, although the emperor is the Roman emperor, the state is also the Roman Empire, but in essence it is still a Germanic barbarian regime, and the former Roman Empire has nothing to do with the spiritual connotation.

Emperors are illiterate, not to mention the various dukes and nobles and knights, so everyone prefers to use duels to settle disputes rather than using the legal means of Roman law, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong at all, as long as you win, it's right, and if you lose, it's naturally wrong.

According to the common belief in the world, the righteous side will be protected by God, and therefore will give him great power to win.

Therefore, the settlement of disputes, the courtship of noble ladies and the fight of lawsuits in court can all be resolved by duels.

For example, in the United Kingdom, the two sides fight in the courts, even if it is a civil case, it can also be decided through a duel, whoever wins is righteous, and the one who loses and retreats must be the guilty person with a ghost in his heart.

"I don't have the Holy Sword now, and I have lost the power of the Holy Seal, even if you win, I won't be honorable."

William's words were full of accusations, and he almost said that the brave Francis was shameless.

The sacred duel should be fought when both sides are well prepared and appear to be evenly matched on the surface.

William was only a necessity for this duel, not only because the situation was not right now, but also because he didn't see love for Lily in Francis's eyes, and it was more like he was planning to fight and defeat or even kill himself.

Francis was at the peak of his strength with the Holy Sword, and he was unarmed, and the power of the Holy Seal and the Red Dragon's Blood also fell silent, this was not a duel but a murder.

"I'm sorry, William, it's your problem, not mine, a knight's duel is like being on the battlefield, and the enemies on the battlefield won't let you go just because you don't have a weapon."

The brave Francis spread his hands, and the light of the holy sword suddenly slashed towards William's shoulder, and the excessive speed formed an afterimage visually.

William's body instinctively moved directly, a lazy donkey rolled and dodged, and the holy light of the holy sword fell to the ground, exploding large holes.

William, who was rolling on the ground, suddenly felt a little creepy, this guy Francis is playing for real.

It's simply an attempt to kill yourself.

"Francis, you did it on purpose!" William took a deep breath and shouted, his anger burned, the blood on his body was boiling, and the blood of the red dragon in his heart instantly flowed all over his body.

"This is a duel!" Francis said loudly, retorting William's words, "It is not the strong who wins, but the victor who is the strong." The weak deserve to die. ”

"Stop, it's not a duel at all!"

Lily watched this scene in surprise and shouted at Francis, who wanted to kill, "You bully the defenseless and pretend to be a duel, if you want to continue, then you will pay for it, this is not a threat." ”

The brave Francis looked at the angry Lily, and then at William, the expression on his face was cloudy, as long as he won William through a duel, he would be able to take away all the fate favored by William, but if he ignored Lily's warning, he would inevitably offend Lily and get a curse ban.

"Yes, duels should be held on a level playing field."

A familiar voice came, and a tall warrior in silver armor walked over, holding the holy sword in his hand and said slowly.

"Liam!" Francis the Brave looked at the young warrior in front of him and called out his name.

"Long time no see, Francis, you're still like this, you haven't changed." Liam smiled and greeted Francis, the brave, while looking at William, and Lily on the side, and then took his gaze back, "Francis, it doesn't seem very kind to you to do this. ”

"What does this have to do with you?" Francis sneered, "Escapees, where are you still qualified to talk about me." ”

"Why has nothing to do with me, you are challenging my squire, in fact, you are challenging me, the knight squire has to fight with his master (knight), because the glory of the master is the glory of the squire, and the shame of the squire is also the shame of the master. William is my squire, and I am one with William's glory and shame, so this matter must not be counted like this, I will duel with you. ”

Liam pulled out his sword, and the silver light slowly poured out, exuding holy power, the dawn of the holy sword.

"How can you use the Dawning Sword, you heretic, can it be said that you have converted." Francis watched as Liam pulled out the Holy Sword, the light from the Dawn Holy Sword was so dazzling.

Although the Dawning Holy Sword that is now circulating is a genuine secondary weapon, it can be used as a genuine product in use, and the power exerted by people with different qualifications is also very different.

It's just that it's hard to give full play to the power of the holy sword, but different users can exert the power of the holy sword differently, and Francis the Brave, as the master of the holy sword, is the best in manipulating the power of the holy sword.

Now he saw something, Liam, the last descendant of the Danan Protoss, who escaped from the battle, was actually able to use the power of the holy sword Dawn.

Hell yes.

Francis saw the sparkle of the sword in Liam's hand and the divine power flowing from the armor, the power that came from the blessing of the saint.

"Liam, I didn't expect you, a die-hard Druid, to defect, I thought I might be forced to convert....."

Francis said with a wry smile that he was originally a devout Christian, who knew that under the trick of fate, he was called a "believer" of the Germanic gods, changed his faith and was blessed by the Germanic gods, while Liam converted to Christianity and received the blessing of the Christian saints, and the two completely changed places.

"Do you think I'm a brazen guy like you? I am a descendant of the goddess Danu, the last descendant of the Danan gods, the prince of the ancient kingdom of Ireland (Ailin), the last king, the leader of the dwarf elves, I am of noble birth, I am a prince and a king, and I have the blood of the ancestral goddess Danu in my veins, who do you think you are, and you can compare to me. I'm like Finn's son, Osien, even if St. Patrick is a missionary, and he won't change his ambition. ”

Liam taunted Francis, with a high-minded mockery in his tone.

Osien was the son of Finn, and he lived a long life, living for more than three hundred years, from the heroic age of Celtic mythology to the time when St. Patrick came to Ireland to preach, and the dying Osien told St. Patrick the story of Finn and the Fiona Warriors, and St. Patrick listened to Osien's story, recorded it, and persuaded him to convert to Christianity.

Non-believers will inevitably suffer in hell, such as his father and his people, but if they believe in Christianity, they will be able to enter God's heaven.

Osien refused, he had a fairy as his wife, he had seen the beautiful scenery of Asgard, everything was so magnificent, he had no nostalgia for the world, so what was the point of entering heaven.

Orcyon was a Celtic hero who could not be converted by Christian saints himself, and Liam presented himself with Osien, undoubtedly mocking him.

"Then how can you use the Holy Sword to put on the Holy Armor!" Francis asked.

Liam gave him a blank look and said with disdain, "You are stupid, I am the last king of the kingdom of Irene (ancient Ireland), and I am also the guardian lord of William, I am the bearer of the holy sword, the bearer of the holy kai, and the brave man who slays the dragon. ”

Protecting the lord was a unique tradition in the feudal system of the Middle Ages, where nobles, knights, and freelords could dedicate their domains, lands, treasures, and personal status to the nobles in order to obtain protection, and in return the nobles enjoyed this benefit, they also had to protect the interests of their vassals from being violated.

The relationship between William and Liam is both the relationship between the knight's squire and the knight's master, if Liam is the king, it is the relationship between the king and his vassal lord, and William's title is also the title of the king.

The Dragon Slayer, the holder of the Holy Sword, and the holder of the Holy Kai.

The title that William has, Liam can add to his title, and this title means strength.

What is a king, he is a monarch on earth, and Finn is a great hero who has defeated the gods, and he is still subject to the rule of the Supreme King of Ireland.

Hercules and Achilles were no exception, and several of Hercules' twelve feats were done willingly, many of which were caused by the king's troubles and legal sanctions, and he himself was once used as a slave.

Achilles entered the war, claiming that he had paid the most, contributed the most, and had the most brilliant achievements, but he gained very little, and was swallowed by the commander of the Greek coalition, the Mycenaean king Agamemnon.

What is the reason, of course, because the other party is a king, even if you are a demigod hero comparable to a god such as Hercules, Achilles, or Finn, you will still be subject to a king who has the status of a vassal with you.
