PS: Woo woo woo, it's me who didn't write well, it's me who didn't think it through, I was wrong, I revised some of the previous text, and today I will make amends to you, huh, please forgive me, I'm willing to do anything.

Lucian first led Aaron to the Great Hall.

True to its name, the Great Hall is quite large, with long tables large enough for two hundred people to dine at once, a granite dome carved with numerous sculptural frescoes telling the glorious history of the Purple Dragon Knights' 1,000-year-old history, vertical windows that greet the light from outside, illuminating the inside of the Great Hall, and the soft spring sun warms the heavy, dark, oak-paneled walls.

There are also a dozen apprentice knights or knight apprentices sitting in the Great Hall, where they eat and talk about things, and some do their homework, and many of the apprentice knights or apprentices who do not have a place to live in Susar will live in the knight's fortress.

"It's him, the kid who fights as soon as he comes in." Someone pointed at Aaron and said secretly.

"This kid has some strength, don't mess with him, I heard that Sharp was going to be beheaded because he provoked him, and Disma was beaten and bruised and swollen just now."

"What madness, is he really Manuel's son?"

There was a burst of whispering, and Aaron couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly after hearing it.

His purpose has been achieved.

From the big waste lying on the carriage, to the small waste on the way back, to the non-waste after entering the Knights, Aaron is changing everyone's impression little by little.

The stereotype is the most difficult to change, and he must make some drastic predictions to meet the princess and daughter, and to fight in the Knights.

"This kind of thing is not an example, Aaron, and Disma, don't let me say it a second time!" Lucian's flag bearer said solemnly in front of him: "You are lucky today, the Supreme Master of Starval is not here, otherwise you will all be punished...... That's why that guy Ian dares to let you go. ”

"Yes." Aaron and Disma looked at each other and answered.

"Open the door! Ridler! Lucian led Aaron to a door on the side of the Great Hall, the heavy door was locked, and a retired knight sat in the doorway: "There are recruits. ”

"......" The retired knight silently opened the heavy door, and Aaron noticed that the retired knight was hardly a complete person, he wore a thick blindfold in one eye, and one leg was gone below the knee, replaced by a wooden stick, one hand with only three fingers, and the other without a thumb.

"Come in, recruit."

Aaron stepped into the honor room on the side of the Great Hall.

A sense of vicissitudes of life came to my face.

At the entrance is a huge tapestry with a historical painting painted on it, in which the great Cormir king Duar, with a group of soldiers, personally rushed into a tower, slashed the pirate king "Minotaur" Margras, who had occupied the royal city of Susar, and recaptured the royal city, thus completely establishing the territory of today's Cormier.

This was followed by canonization, where the soldiers knelt before the victorious king and accepted his canonization.

Yes, that's where the Knights of the Purple Dragon came from.

As mentioned above, Cormier fought wars for more than 400 years from the establishment of the territory to the complete establishment of the territory for all powers to recognize the sovereignty of mankind over this land, which symbolized the end of the dispute was that Susar was betrayed to the pirate king, and King Dua, who was fighting outside, was forced to flee into the King's Forest with a small group of loyalists.

While taking refuge in the manor of the King's Forest, King Duart managed to secure the support of a group of nobles and a mercenary group, who provided enough money and supplies, and the mercenary group provided enough military support.

This mercenary group is the predecessor of the Purple Dragon Knights.

After successfully recapturing Susar, King Douard naturally wanted to give enough rewards to the bloody mercenary group, and the king decided to give the mercenary group official status, he disbanded the mercenary group, reorganized the mercenaries into the Kingdom Knights, and named the knights the Purple Dragon Knights.

Therefore, it is not that the mercenaries really do not have a chance to soar into the sky, but it is very rare.

Aaron vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a mercenary group in Baldur's Gate called the Flame Fist Mercenary Group, which was originally a civilian organization, but it seized the opportunity to play a vital role in a drastic change, and it also became a semi-official organization, but Baldur's Gate is a free city, which is different from a royal state like Cormier.

Behind the tapestry is a series of portraits framed with busts of each of the Knights of the Purple Dragon.

The current Supreme Master of the Purple Dragon Knights is Starval, a quasi-legendary Purple Dragon Knight.

"Right here." Lucian then led Aaron to a long wall: "See for yourself. ”

There are no portraits on this wall, instead there are rows of small coats of arms with numbers written below them.

Aaron quickly understood that it was a wall of remembrance.

He followed Lucian's direction and found the coat of arms belonging to the Sallian family on the wall.

Father, Mother......

Aaron was silent.

In his memories, his father was always the old-fashioned, authoritarian, impersonal tyrant, and he could barely recall any good memories, leaving only insults, beatings, insults, and ridicule, and the two sides fought like enemies, until they were covered in blood, until one of them relented.

It's a pity that my father never compromises, and even more regrettable, Aaron never compromises.

Until both father and mother were killed in battle, and Aaron got rid of them completely.

So thinking of his father, it is difficult for Aaron to say how much painful feelings there are, he only has a faint sadness at most, after all, this is the person who gave birth to me and raised me, after all, this is the person who taught me basic swordsmanship, and other than that, there are painful memories left.

"Do you need me to give you a moment?" Lucian could have been mistaken.

Following behind Aaron, Disma, who was originally a little disdainful, also shook his head.

At least this kid once had, and I ......

"Whew~ No need, thank you." Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, since he awakened his powers, remembered his memory, he had experienced too much, he fought, he killed, he saw the true god, he used the extremely weak resources in his hands, he entered the palace to fight with the regent in exchange for a chance, he is now a middle-aged man with a mental age of fifty.

He easily accepted the fact that his father was dead, because there was nothing to be nostalgic about in the first place.

Farewell, cage.

But today in the honor room, Aaron looked at the places where his father had served, fought, and lived, but he felt like a world away.

"Lucian is the flag officer, what kind of person is my father?" Aaron turned to ask his father's old friend.

"Manuel was a loyal and diligent man, a model of knighthood." Lucian touched his thick beard and gave a standard answer.

"He's a good knight, he's a good friend, he's probably a good Cormier, but he's never been a good father." Aaron smiled and didn't continue.

Lucian seemed to know something, and he didn't say anything more, but took Aaron and Disma to his office.

"Then from today onwards, you will be my apprentice knight." The flag bearer sat in his chair: "I will do my best to train you into a qualified purple dragon knight and teach you the way of the purple dragon knight." ”

"From the moment you become a recruit, at least in the fortress, you are not a viscount, you are a recruit, you have nothing to do with nobles and no faith, all I have to do is make you a qualified knight, a useful person." Lucian leaned back in his chair, "If I could, I'd really like you to live in the dormitory of the fortress." ”

"There are many recruits in the Purple Dragon Knights, I don't care if you are the son of a duke, the son of an earl, the son of a viscount or the son and daughter of the high priest of the temple, this is a fortress, a place for training, not a salon for nobles!"

"I understand." Aaron didn't care about that, he had already thought about it.

There is a very common practice in the kingdom to send one's children to someone else's house to be raised for a period of time, the nobleman to send the noble son, the craftsman to the craftsman's son, the merchant to the merchant's son, and even the farmer to the farmer's son.

In addition to saving a food ration, one of the important reasons why many people send their children to other people's homes is to exercise their independence and get rid of excessive dependence on the family.

Lucian's Flag Commander was even a subordinate baron, but in the Purple Dragon Knights Fortress, he was the superior of the knights and Aaron's mentor.

Even outside the fortress, no one with a high title dared to be disrespectful to the Purple Dragon Banner Officer.

If you can't even understand these things, you might as well go back to Sariyan's house as soon as possible.

"I already know about your talent as a warlock, so you come here four days a week for training, and the magic instructor from the royal family will be responsible for giving you magic lessons for the remaining two days." Lucian continued, "But during this time, when the Mentor is not here, you have to come to the Order every day except Sunday to train, and I said you can go before you can go home.

"I'll do whatever you arrange! Mentor! Aaron yelled very directly.

"Good! Very energetic!! Lucian roared in a voice louder than him, his beard blowing up, "Welcome to the Knights of the Purple Dragon, recruit!" ”

"Disma, you go and let the kitchen cook more dishes, and we will greet Manuel's son at noon!"

"Got it~" Disma waved his hand impatiently, signaling that he understood.

"You have two seniors, one of whom you have already met, and Disma is your second senior." Lucian pointed to Disma's back, "I'll take you three trainee knights now." ”

There is no such thing as a brother in this world, and it is generally replaced by "brother", "student" and "apprentice partner", and even close to it, directly use "buddy" and "buddy" to call him by his name.

Anyway, there is no senior brother and sister senior brother and younger brother, Aaron searched in his stomach in the lingua franca for a long time but did not find it, and finally called Sir Renard "fellow brother".

Wait, Reynard, the college president, and Disma, the second senior, why do these two names sound so familiar?

Aaron wondered. JPG

At noon, in the Great Hall, Lucian gave Aaron a grand welcome and introduced him to acquaintances.

"Ian Hutson, Grand Mentor and Grand Inspector General, you're acquaintances."

The chief inspector had been angry all morning, and he still showed up on time at noon.

"Hey, hello, I'm E.↑ En ↓ brother ↑ brother ↓." Aaron smiled and said, "It's nice to meet you for the first time!" ”

"You ......" Ian's face stinked even more, his mouth open, not knowing what to say in the midst of the laughter of the crowd.

Hahahaha, everyone laughed together.

“…… Do it yourself. The Inspector General said without a hint.

“…… Grand Religious Chief, Helmut Kincher. A knight chief wearing the emblem of the god of protection, Heim, nodded at Aaron.

"Justice Lucas Nmecha." The strong, balding man with a hooked nose nodded to Aaron.

"Grand Tailor Officer, Belle Stefaniak." The kind elder with a small belly patted Aaron on the stomach in a friendly manner.

"Lord and Marshal of Marshal Castle, Bidrin Joule." Wearing a navy hat and a weather-covered face, the iron man drank the rum from his glass.

"Fariel-Rahlalsson, Lord of Fort Thunderstone."

"Cliff Castle Master ......"

…………

The long list of names made Aaron's brain a little numb, and he had to greet him one by one, under the leadership of Lucian, the knightly chiefs with important positions in these knights had greeted him either for the sake of Lucian's face or for the sake of Aaron's father, and most of them were kind.

Aaron's heart lit up with joy.

This is the network, this is the background, and the network operated by the purple dragon knight who his father has been a for decades has finally come in handy.

That's why he decided to train as a recruit for the Purple Dragon Knight.

If he hadn't come, those relationships would soon have fallen apart and faded away.

But now that Aaron is here, with his father-son status, he can easily take over his father's network.

This is something that can't be exchanged for a thousand gold coins or ten thousand gold coins!

Since I plan to do my business in Cormier in the future, I have to make use of all these things.

The family network, the father's network, the network of the Lady of Silver, these are all valuable assets.

Even his aunts and uncles, including his relatives who had been exiled from the Vast Territory and depended on fishing and hunting (Kenesian) for their survival, were able to exert their value under many specific conditions.

Thinking of this, Aaron poured himself a large glass of red wine, and he tapped the table twice to signal that he had something to say.

A dozen or so people present stopped to listen to him.

"No, I don't have any brothers and sisters, none of them!" Aaron raised his glass: "I'm just a recruit!" ”

Everyone looked at him and didn't understand why he said that.

"But now, I realize, I have a lot of siblings! Because you are all my dear relatives and friends, brothers and sisters! ”

"For brothers, for friendship, for our health, in the name of Our Lady of Silver, cheers!" Aaron tilted his head and drank the wine.

"Brother! Friendship! Healthy! The auditorium erupted in cheers: "Cheers!" ”

Lucian's flag officer also got up, he put his hand on Aaron's shoulder, despite the fact that the wine was all soaked, "Our little fellow, son of Manuel, Aaron Salian was not with us before, it's a shame. ”

"But we still have a chance to make up for the time we shouldn't have lost!"

"Starting today, he will join our team and let the whole country see how the Purple Dragon Knight fights to win his glory!"

"A toast to our recruit Aaron Salian!"

"Aaron! Aaron! Aaron! The crowd in the auditorium called Aaron's name and brought the welcome to the top.

In the corner of the auditorium, a welcome party is being held, but in another dark corner, two knights are secretly communicating.

"Your Excellency, is that the person you are talking about?"

"It's definitely him, that charm, that contagion, that strange undocumented magic, absolutely yes, he's a god like me!"

"What then?"

"Kill him, take the divinity from him, and transform it into my power!"

"I finally succeeded in entering the Purple Dragon Knight, and no one can stop me from controlling Cormier's plan!"

"Obey or destroy, this is the fate of this country."
