A New Struggle Chapter 39: The Messenger of God

"Catherina was my father's second wife, and neither my sister nor I were her own. Will explains.

The four of them continued to walk forward, "In front of you is the council chamber of the palace", Will pointed to the building in front of Li Sa, several soldiers in silver and white armor were guarding the door, and when they saw Will walking over, they were stunned for a moment at the same time, and then leaned over to salute.

"It's not a loss, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you're quite popular. Li Sa teased in a low voice.

"Quite the opposite. Will gave him a blank look and led the way into the council chamber, which was large and flanked by two rows of soldiers holding flagpoles, with a sword and a crown on the flag, the emblem of the Holy Kingdom. At the end of the hall, there are several steps, and in the center of the top staircase are three stone chairs, the backrests of the stone chairs and the armrests are inlaid with red, yellow, and green gems from left to right. At the foot of the stairs, a group of people were gathering together, discussing something in twos and threes.

Will walked with his chin puffed up in the direction where everyone in the hall had gathered, "Do you see those people?"

"How?"

"Those nobles were all elected by that woman, and there are few people left in this council hall who are more familiar with me. ”

As the four people approached, someone in the crowd turned around and found them, facing Will, who was dressed gorgeously and with a neat face today, the eyes of the group of people were full of the four big words 'I can't believe it'.

"Yo, what is the happy event for Your Highness today?" A rather snarky voice came from the crowd, Li Sa looked for the sound, and the owner of the voice was a short man wearing a gray robe, gray hair, and a short stature.

Li Sa believes that compared with Will, this person's figure can be described by the words 'weak and can't help the wind'. Not only are others so short, but also thin, if you look closely, there is not even any flesh on his face, the cheekbones on both sides of his cheeks are very prominent, the eye sockets are sunken, a pair of widening eyes, dark gray pupils, with his bloodless white skin and lips.

The moment Li Sa saw this person, he thought of the picture of a bamboo pole being cut off by someone, and involuntarily raised his eyebrows.

"Hmm, this must be the person His Highness found, right?" He walked out of the crowd and came to Li Sa, because Li Sa was relatively tall, he needed to raise his head slightly to see Li Sa's face clearly, and Li Sa was also stared at by him very uncomfortable.

"Hehe, not bad, not bad... He walked around Li Sa twice, stretched out his hand like a dead branch, and wanted to touch Li Sa's back.

"Uncle, my friend isn't that familiar. Will stopped him.

"Hmmm... No hurry, no hurry. He nodded, walked back to the crowd, and glanced back at Li Sa on the way, Li Sa was a little uncomfortable by his dead fish-like pupils, and shrugged his shoulders back and forth.

"Haha, don't worry, it should be coming soon, when the meeting is over, I'll take you to enjoy it and get comfortable." Will slammed Li Sa's shoulder, squeezing his eyes and sneering.

As soon as the words fell, the voices of the nobles over there suddenly fell, and everyone changed from a few groups to a relatively neat arrangement, this scene reminded Li Sa of the scene when he was in school, the recess exercise.

From the side of the stairs, three people, two men and one woman, needless to say, the woman with a somewhat plump body, dressed in a pale yellow dress, and wearing glittering jewels around her neck and hands, must have been Queen Catherina.

Behind her, the man with white hair and a white beard and a crown should be the current king 'Reinhardt', although he is old, he can still see his muscular figure, the red coat on the upper body, printed with a lion motif crocheted with gold wire, and the collar and cuffs are surrounded by white plush.

The last man, taller than the queen but shorter than King Reinhardt, was Pope Nepsis, who looked much younger, wearing a golden robe, a high golden hat with red gems, round-framed gold-rimmed glasses between his nose, a necklace on his chest, and a golden cross at the bottom, also with a smaller red gem in the center. And in his hands, he holds a scepter.

For some reason, Li Sa felt that there seemed to be a surge of magic power on the necklace and the scepter.

The three of them sat on three stone chairs in turn, looking down at the crowd.

The nobles at the bottom of the stairs symbolically bowed down, and the three people on the stairs all opened their eyes wide, patrolling the crowd, Li Sa clearly felt that their eyes all stayed on Will for a while, but the performance of the three of them was not the same, and it was not very obvious.

Pope Nepsis seemed to frown, then stroked his hand back and forth on his chin. King 'Reinhardt' nodded at Will quietly, and Li Sa could clearly see the smile on the corner of his mouth, but after noticing the fierce face of Queen Catherina sitting on his left, he still retracted it.

Catherina's facial muscles twitched a few times, staring at Will viciously, and Li Sa noticed that her nostrils had expanded twice, as if she was inhaling heavily, and she didn't want to open her mouth to make too much noise.

"Ladies and gentlemen. The first to speak was Pope Neposis, who pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose with his free right hand and spoke in a louder voice.

"Today, we have a special guest here. He first looked at Li Sa, and then at the nobles.

"A man who has heroically defeated the evil monsters outside the city ... Nepsis looked at the cloth armor Li Sa was wearing and the gauntlets on his arms, and he didn't know what words to use to describe it, a classic mash-up?

"Great hero!" Will replied loudly.

Nepsis narrowed his eyes, "It seems that His Highness already knows this gentleman well. ”

"Of course, we are friends. Will smiled, his eyes fixed on Nepcis.

"So, tell us a little about this friend of yours. Nepsis also looked at Will, and the eyes of the two were engaged in an invisible fierce firefight, as for who won, Li Sa was not clear.

"Let me see what special ability this friend of yours has to clean up troubles that the second-order knights of the kingdom can't solve. ”

"As you wish. Will pulled Li Sa through the crowd to the front of the steps, and then turned to face the nobles below.

"This, Mr. Li Sa, is a first-order knight. After Will's words, the nobles began to whisper, it was obvious that they would not believe that a first-order knight could defeat a group of monsters with more than second-order strength. They had sarcastic expressions on their faces, and some even raised their hands to point at Will and Li Sa.

"I say, dear His Highness Will. A tall man with a square face sneered, "In front of the three adults, Your Highness, you have to think clearly, you have to be responsible for what you have said." ”

"That's nature. Will was not in the least affected by the nobles' performance, he still maintained his gentlemanly demeanor, and replied with a smile.

"So, may I ask Your Highness, this friend of yours, one... A knight of the first order. The man continued in a yin and yang tone, "How could a first-order knight destroy that group of monsters?"

When he spoke, this person seemed to laugh, and Li Sa felt for a while that this person's teeth might not be very neat, and his speech was leaky.

"Dear Lord Duke Philip. Will looked first at the man he called the Duke, then at the other nobles, "and the other nobles." ”

"Oh, of course, and my beloved Pope, His Majesty the King, and... Will turned to the three men on the steps and saluted, pausing slightly at Catherina's place, "and Her Majesty." ”

"Please let me introduce you to this friend of mine, the First Order Knight, Mr. Li Sa. ”

"A man who looks ordinary, but can actually defeat monsters by leapfrogging. ”

"One who has been given great strength ... At this time, Will suddenly took two steps back to the side, and then bowed down to Li Sa in front of all the nobles.

"Messenger of God. ”
