Chapter 3 Bad News, the Entrustment of the Sacred Realm Crystal
Kyle was stunned for a moment, although he had been prepared, but when he suddenly heard the news, he only felt that his head was blank, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses......
After all, the two are mixed together, and it is difficult to separate.
For a while, his body, which was already weak, actually felt some cramping in his heart, and the teacup he picked up fell instantly, and was caught by Fox reaching out in mid-air.
The sporadic tea spilled, and Fawkes placed the cup on the table, tilting his head silently, knowing that it was the kid who was broken.
But he was clumsy, and when he saw that he didn't speak for a long time, he only felt uneasy, and he wished that he would scold a few words loudly or cry.
On the contrary, it is this wordless silence that is the most tormenting.
Thinking back to his original father, Kyle remembered another thing in his sourness.
Anthony S. D. Charles ...... The surname Charles is rare, and it can be traced back to the lord of the Duchy of England, the legendary Lionheart.
In this land of Lancaster, the descendants of the Lionheart are well-deserved nobles, and the Charles family is the top group of traditional nobles in addition to the descendants of the Grand Dukes of the Duchy.
Big things don't go well, the worst outcome!
If it were an ordinary family, it would be fine, but based on Kyle's perception of these traditional nobles in the game, this group of staunch defenders of the bloodline theory is more hostile to illegitimate children than expected.
Not to mention that Anthony still has a hereditary barony on him...... Don't mistreat a baron as a nobleman.
Although the prince and the baron look the worst, there are also knights of the first rank to the fifth rank under the baron.
These ten echelons are counted as a whole, and together they constitute the ruling class of the Iber Federation.
If my father was still alive, he would have been fine, but now the situation is ...... I'm afraid that there will be many twists and turns because of this baron's position.
Thinking of this, he had a little more thought in his heart.
Although it is a bit despicable, it is not shameful to skillfully use the advantages of succubi for better survival......
After a while, Kyle raised his pale face, smiled forcefully, and took the initiative to speak: "I'm sorry, I didn't come back to my senses when I heard the news, Uncle Fox, you know, my father is busy outside and rarely comes home."
You just called Anthony directly, I didn't even come to my senses, it's really a shame for my father. ”
The medium charm of the succubus bloodline made him look more and more clean and fragile, and that crumbling appearance made Fawkes's heart soften again.
How can a son call the name of an outsider, but he can't remember the name of his father, it is nothing more than a statement that he does not want to be pitied.
"No, Anthony has always regarded you as his pride."
"Proud?" Kyle breathed a sigh of relief and added, "Father, are you brave on the battlefield up there?" ”
Fawkes breathed heavily, only to feel that his heart was coated with layers of cement, so heavy that his breathing was so uncomfortable, his chest rose and fell, and his heart flashed with pain and shame.
What kind of character can say such a thing, when it was complicated and indescribable, his voice trembled a little, and he gently grabbed his shoulder and said:
"Your father is brave and deservedly the Knight of the Lionheart, and the Iron Cross and even the Lionheart Warband should be proud of him!"
"Then he has indeed done his duty to St. Ingillance." Kyle nodded, as if he had no intention of continuing.
A thought crossed Fawkes' mind: but he hadn't fulfilled his duties as the child's father.
Yes, my father was the only one, and now there is nothing.
This heavy atmosphere made him feel as if he had been choked by the throat, and he couldn't make a sound, and after a long time he said hoarsely:
"Before your father died, he left you the core of his sanctuary, and I hope you will absorb it and inherit the glory of him and the Charles family.
Child, the blood of a succubus does not prove that you have an evil heart, and a brave and fearless heart like gold is proof of who you are! You're doing a great job of that. ”
Kyle's worries eased a little, knowing that this Lionheart Knight had passed the level.
But when he heard the core of the Sanctuary Domain, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
Good fellow, in the original memory, he really doesn't know that much about how strong his father Anthony is.
After all, he was a warlock, and Anthony wouldn't go out of his way to show how strong he was in front of his weak son.
But the core of the Sanctuary is produced by the powerhouses of the Sanctuary.
Professionals will be called differently depending on their rank.
Beginner professionals of LV1-10;
LV11-20 transcendent professional;
Lv21-30 Sanctuary Professional;
……
Even in the Lionheart Warband where the strong are gathered, a Sanctuary is definitely the backbone of the backbone.
The most important thing is that the core of the Sanctuary is the essence of power condensed in the body of the Sanctuary professional, which is equivalent to the source of its power.
This thing, in the game "Nether Gate", is also called a "high-level experience stone" by players, and its existence can be used as a deduction material for the casting punishment of some forbidden spells, or as a material for bloodline promotion and level promotion.
Even later in version 9.4, it was a rather rare high-end item.
Seeing that Kyle was silent, Fawkes patted him on the shoulder and said, "We know that since you were born, you have never sucked human essence, not even cow and sheep blood.
Your father left the core of the Sanctuary, presumably to relieve the pain of your bloodline instinct, and you don't have to think too much, the core of the Sanctuary is not essence, but it is better than essence.
Replenish your body, live well, and don't disappoint your father. ”
With that, Fawkes took out a blood-red crystal from the inner layer of his armor and gently placed it in Kyle's hand.
Kyle gripped the crystal tightly, feeling that the small stone weighed a thousand pounds, and his heart was a little complicated.
Fox hugged him gently and said, "Your Uncle Fox has no ability, but if you go back to the royal capital, you can come to my house and sit down, and you can contact your relationship as an uncle and nephew."
On the territory side, I will talk to the Legion Commander, and those who sacrifice their lives for order should not let their children feel cold. ”
Kyle nodded yes, and Fawkes got up and left.
After being sent to the door by Kyle and turning to leave, Fawkes took out a cigarette from the inside of his armor, lit it and swallowed it for a while, with an ugly expression on his face.
He remembered what had happened in the early hours of this morning.
……
In the Duchy of Ingylence, to the south of the royal capital, there is a huge building standing majestically.
Locals call it the "White Bone Christmas Tree", and legend has it that the original Lionheart Grand Duke of British Quirenz, in the early days of the founding of the country, killed the Titans who disturbed the border, and smelted their bones with a large amount of alloy.
A two-meter-high glass is attached to the branch that spreads out from the spine, and it is the body of the building.
Thanks to the special paint applied to it, at night, the building glows blue like a phosphoric fire, as if a set of cone-shaped white skeletons were suspended in the air.
Cold and cruel, like the Lionhearts Warband that existed on the Bone Christmas Tree, they represented their absolute supremacy over the realm under their rule.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew at night, and the armored manticore-tailed lion carried the Lionheart Knight in animal bone armor, vibrating its wings and slowly falling.
The knight fell to his knees as if he had lost his strength when his feet landed.
