Chapter 681: Guardian Knight
Listening to Waddington's words, Edward did not interject, but listened and pondered.
He naturally also thought about whether he could give this young god of killing a name and let him join the city in the sky, after all, the young god of killing was not only full of potential, but also had a friendly attitude towards the city in the sky at present.
It would be best for such an outstanding young man to be able to win him over, not to mention that he might be able to get more medicines.
Just to give this killing god what kind of identity do you want to give?
Judging from the situation of killing gods, he is not afraid of the major holy city forces at all, and if Edward gives him a small name, I am afraid that he will not be able to really win him over.
As Edward continued to think, Waddington's words continued.
"Lord Duke, my subordinates think that you can actually give him the identity of a guardian knight, this young killing god can save the young lady so desperately this time, it must be appropriate to give a guardian knight the title, and a knight's fief only needs one village is enough!"
"Presumably, there is a fiefdom of a village, and this young killing god will gradually integrate into our sky city!"
Waddington's idea was very simple, that is, first of all, to make this young god of killing willing to accept the title bestowed by Sky City.
If it is an ordinary person, if you have the opportunity to join the city in the sky, you must be unwanted.
However, demonic young people like the God of Killing are more arrogant in many cases, and they don't like to be restrained, so it is often not so easy for many big forces to recruit such talents.
But the situation of this young man killing the god is a little different, judging by his attitude towards Miss Adella, presumably he should accept the name of guardian knight.
When he accepted it, he was given a village as a fief.
After a long time, this fiefdom will naturally become his bondage, and he will voluntarily integrate into the Sky City.
"Guardian Knight?"
After listening to Waddington's suggestion, Edward nodded thoughtfully.
Waddington's method is really good, and it is a good way to tie the killing god to Sky City.
Because if it is only used to win over a normal reward method, then let a demonic young man live under the people, he has a great chance of not accepting it.
But if you become Adella's guardian knight, it's different.
Because this guardian knight doesn't actually need to obey Edward, or even Adella.
Therefore, even if he does not restrain or subjugate to the god-killing youth, he only needs to be responsible for Adella's safety.
Moreover, in the Holy Continent, the rewards of the guardian knights are varied, including gold and silver coins, as well as diluted treasure peerless weapons, and fiefs can also be used as rewards, and these are all counted as guarantees for the cultivation and equipment of this guardian knight.
And if Sky City really uses a fief as a reward, with a fief, even if the young man who kills the god of language has a strong connection, and can maintain a lifelong connection at one time, this can be regarded as joining Sky City in disguise.
It's just that Edward's only doubt about this method is that his granddaughter will get too close to this young killer, and the relationship between the two may deepen in the future.
But after thinking about it, judging from the situation of his granddaughter, even if this god-killing young man did not have the identity of this guardian knight, Adella would definitely continue to contact him.
Unless he intervened directly, but if he was willing to intervene, Edward would have intervened in many ways.
"Then try your way!"
Edward finally made a decision, whether the god-killing young man accepted it or not, it was also a kind of release he gave him.
"Lord Duke, then the subordinate will retire first!"
"Go ahead!"
Waddington then left the room, while Edward continued to wait in the room as his granddaughter had agreed.
……
More than half an hour later, Adella dressed up and came to the room in a flawless white dress.
"Grandfather!"
After Adella entered the room, she first put her eyes on the bed, and saw that Gervais was still lying quietly on the bed, so she was relieved to look at her grandfather and shouted obediently.
"Well, why did you come so soon, grandfather doesn't have much to do tonight, you can watch here for a while!"
Edward's expression was slightly helpless when he saw his granddaughter walk in, although it was not late at night, but the time was about the same.
My granddaughter is still coming over now, can't she stay here at night?
"Grandfather, I'm not sleepy! Why don't you sit, come and sit here! ”
Adella knew that her grandfather felt sorry for her, but she was willing to leave, so she immediately put on a full posture and replied to Edward.
Then he took Edward's arm and sat down on the sofa next to him!
"Alright! It's all up to you! ”
For Adele's appearance, Edward couldn't say anything even if he wanted to blame, so he could only shake his head helplessly.
After sitting down, Edward remembered the conversation he had had with Waddington, and immediately spoke softly to Adella.
"Adella, what's the name of this young killing god?"
"Grandfather...... I promised people that I couldn't say it! ”
"If I ask him when he wakes up, he'll definitely say yes!"
Adella was a little embarrassed, and finally whispered to Edward.
"So? Grandfather originally wanted to ask the identity of this young man to kill the god and give him a reward of guardian knights! ”
In fact, when Edward was in the Cold Emerald Manor, he heard Adella shouting the name of the killing god.
Now he just wanted to tease his granddaughter, and when he heard that Adella really refused to tell him, he said to Adella with a slightly disappointed expression.
"Yikes! Guardian Knight! Is it really grandfather! You're so nice! ”
Adele's eyes widened, and she exclaimed, quickly moved her body closer to Edward's side for a few minutes, and then grabbed his arm and began to shake in thanks.
"Of course this is true, but grandfather doesn't even know his name, so it's definitely not okay, or grandfather will think about it later!"
Edward replied with a smile.
"No! Grandfather, I'll tell you now! You're the best! I'll tell you now! ”
"Grandfather, his name is Gervais Gale!"
Adella's face turned crimson in an instant, and she knew that her grandfather was angry that she didn't tell him Gervais's name.
Immediately, Adella shook Edward's arm even harder and began to be coquettish.
And in the face of the temptation of the guardian knight, Adella still broke her own principles and secretly leaked Gervais's name.
Because the Guardian Knight is so seductive.
This guardian knight was handed down hundreds of years ago when the kingdoms of the Sacred Continent were numerous.
Guardian Knight, as the name suggests, is a name for a person who specializes in guarding someone.
At the beginning, the population of the Holy Continent was as high as 10 billion, and the large and small principalities were hundreds, and it was also an era of strong people.
At that time, many large and small principalities would give them the title of guardian knight in order to win over some strong people.
For example, guarding a certain prince, guarding a certain princess.
Such a guardian knight title will not make this strong man have any constraints, but it can ensure that the two sides maintain a good relationship, because the name of guardian is done on an equal footing of both parties.
And once the guardian knight becomes someone's guardian, then when the guardian encounters danger, he must fulfill his guardian promise and complete the protection!
What's even more exaggerated is that hundreds of years ago, some super strong people were not just the guardian momentum of one person, but could protect many people.
According to rumors, hundreds of years ago, a strong man received invitations from dozens of large and small kingdoms to become the guardian knight of the heirs of their kingdoms, and the strong man received countless fiefs and other rewards.
So why can one person protect so many people, will it be a little exhausting.
In fact, those kings are not stupid, it is entirely because that strong man has the reputation of being a strong man in the Holy Continent.
Many times, when people know that this person is guarded by a strong person, and people want to hurt him, they have to weigh their own skills, and whether they will usher in the revenge of this strong person who protects the world and destroys the world.
Although the Terrans have now changed from the pattern of large and small kingdoms to the city-states of the Holy City, the Guardian Knights are still occasionally used.
And Adella is very willing to be guarded by Gervais, so that her relationship with Gervais can go further, and maybe she can go to him justifiably.
"Gervais Gale?"
Edward finally heard the name of the god of murder in its entirety.
"That's it! All right! Adella, if you shake it again, you're going to shake your grandfather out! ”
"Now that I know the name! Then grandfather didn't think much about it! When the time comes, when this young man named Gervais wakes up, you can ask him if he agrees, and if he agrees, then grandfather will hold a ceremony for you to protect the canonization! ”
Seeing that Adela said the name of this god-killing young man, Edward did not tease his granddaughter anymore, and immediately relented.
And he thinks it's better for Adella to ask about this matter herself.
"Thank you, grandfather!"
When Adella heard her grandfather's promise, she was immediately satisfied, and her hand stopped shaking Edward's arm!
"Alright, then grandfather will go first! You'll go to bed early! ”
"Yes, grandfather!"
Adella was still excited, and immediately nodded obediently!
"Hmm!"
With that, Edward got up and walked out of the room.
However, after leaving the room, Edward was a little uneasy, so he sent several servants to wait inside and outside the room.
He was most worried that his granddaughter would stay at night, so he must send a few more servants to guard it.
