"False gods are more terrible than darkness. ”

- The Book of Light

After learning the news of the war in Northridge, Jack hurriedly got up and retired, he was eager to go home and ask Sparrow to inquire quickly, although Vice Dean Edward told him some information, he still needed his subordinates to give him a reliable situation.

Glancing at Jack who was leaving quickly, Justin also wanted to follow but was stopped by Edward, Jack looked at Justin and nodded to indicate that he was okay, so Justin sat back in his seat very dissatisfied, holding a silver cup full of ice cubes and glaring at Edward.

"I heard Jason say that you use your sword pretty well. Ignoring Justin's resentful little eyes, Edward took out a long pipe from under the table and lit it, spewing a cloud from his mouth and saying, "What the hell is going on with Vivien's child?"

The topic changed so quickly that Justin, who was ready to have a good exchange with the strongest dual swordsman in the Silvermoon Country, forced back the words he was about to say.

"We don't have anything, it's all that crazy girl. Justin thought for a moment and said.

Edward smoked his pipe and stared into Justin's eyes, who had grown up in the court and knew that his eyes must not retreat at this time, even if he didn't know why.

"Your brother is the crown prince. Edward gently knocked his pipe and said, "The marriage between the Root family and the royal family, one king and one queen is a tradition of two families. There is only one direct granddaughter of Duke Root, and if she wins Vivien, she can win some of the support of the Root family, at least she is definitely better than your second brother who is a waste. ”

Justin shook his head: "I don't want the position of crown prince. ”

"But you want Vivien. Edward continued this sentence before Justin could finish his sentence.

But Justin didn't refute, didn't speak, just sat there thinking about something. Time seemed to freeze, and sunlight shone through a small circular window at the top of the room, and the dust in the air was clearly visible in the dimly lit room. Edward's pipe slammed lightly on the edge of the table, and the white soot kept falling to the ground, and finally disappeared into the dust as Edward put his leg down.

"I was also in love with a girl. Edward, who got up, took two steps around the room and turned to Justin's chair: "I was young and proud, and I didn't think anything could stop me. ”

Holding the back of Justin's chair with both hands, Justin looked up, and Edward didn't look at him, but his eyes were empty as if he was caught in some kind of memory.

Justin was a little embarrassed, and when he didn't know what he should do, a pair of big hands were placed on his shoulders, Justin looked at Edward, and followed Edward's gaze, two rusty sticks scraped crosswise on the wall, and the outlines of the two gauntlet swords could be vaguely seen.

"So," continued Edward, "it's useless. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a trotting sound, and the door was pushed open with a bang. Justin was startled, the strange atmosphere coupled with the sound of footsteps and the sound of breaking the door, he jumped up and habitually reached out to grab the sword at his waist, but his waist was now empty.

The news of Jack's house was not as bad as Edward imagined, when Jack rushed home and shouted to find Sparrow, Sparrow was holding Jack's mother's letter to be delivered to Jack, watching Jack take the letter and open it and stand in the yard to read, Sparry wanted to ask Jack what was wrong, if something was wrong, but it was not good to bother Jack with his attentive appearance.

The woman Red Carp has been getting more and more charming lately, and Jack sometimes wants to find a Maine woman's head-to-toe black robe to wrap her, and staggers over as if not writhing his body is enough to express his beauty.

Throwing a puzzled look at Spari, Sparry shrugged his shoulders and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know anything. So the two looked at Jack's expression and read the long letter in a gloomy manner, and the red carp reached out and put his hand on Jack's shoulder and asked him what was wrong.

"There's a war on Northridge. Jack looked at the two of them and said.

"Fighting?" Sparry was slightly surprised, but how did Jack look at it, and that expression seemed like he wanted to rush to the battlefield now, and he didn't look at how old he was.

"Who are you fighting with?" Sparry thought for a moment and understood, it was definitely not a war with Rhine, as for whom, in Spari's opinion, it was normal for those lords of Northridge to rebel one or two, and Spari, who had traveled a lot of places when he was young, had always been very unoptimistic about Northridge's sheep-herding management.

"The Kakamans have rebelled, and the city of Eternal Night has been lost. Without waiting for Sparrow and Red Carp to ask Jack, he continued: "But we abandoned the city on our own initiative, the Kakamans came too suddenly, it is said that my father has been appointed marshal in wartime, and my mother said that my father wrote to her to try to end the battle before winter comes, and it seems that winning or losing is not a problem." ”

Hearing this, Sparry breathed a sigh of relief, if the capital of a country is breached, then he and the others will have to think about a lot of things, and now it seems that there is nothing to do, the Kakaman people have long been imperceptibly influenced by Rodok for Spari, who has been with Rodok for many years, thinking that it is a group of savages, and two thousand cavalry can sweep the entire territory of the Kakamans.

After chatting a few words, he told Red Carp to buy some special things in Lolan City that could be sent to Fujiao, and went upstairs to the study to take out the banknotes to write a letter to his mother.

The crow couldn't bring such a long letter, and his mother must have sent someone to deliver it, probably because she was afraid that she would be nervous after hearing the news of the battle in North Ridge in Lolan City. Jack looked at the white letterhead, nostalgic for the angry horn that looked so shabby compared to Loraine, and the longing for his hometown welled up in the boy's heart.

The whole Lolan City is so noisy and prosperous, everyone seems to be a smile in front of this huge city, the crowded streets shuttle in the hands of the children in the crowd will have an extra money bag in a while, the red carp in front of the car pulling melons and fruits is wrapped in a black robe that only a Mayne woman will wear, from beginning to end only the eyes are exposed, this kind of woman no one wants to provoke, maybe it's okay in the wild, in the crowded Lolan City, the crazy Mayne people will gather to do even crazier things.

On the top floor of the college library, a miserable howl came, but except for the senior students on the fourth floor who pretended to be lazy servants, even the students of the library on the floor did not affect it.
