Chapter 13: Fight the Werewolves head-on
At night, when everything fell into a deep sleep, even the sea water on the pier was not so hard at this moment, the oil lamps that had been extinguished in every house, and the sparse human voices were silent at this moment, except for the blue moon and stars in the night sky, there was no lighting on the road. But in the middle of the night, when no one was around, a figure flew out of the hotel and went straight to the docks.
The man was none other than Lista, who leaned against the board of the voyage and cocked his hand, closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the waves crashing, and waited quietly for someone.
"It's fast, boy, stuff a note in my pocket while I'm drinking, say, what are you looking for me"
A tall figure slowly walked out of the village, and it was Hawke, who had been arguing and laughing with Fergus in the tavern before, and he walked up to Lista, and leaned against the sign with Lista very casually, looking at the sea together, like friends for many years.
It turned out that when they were in the tavern, after Fiona and Karui introduced Hawke, Lista had always kept Hawke's power in mind, and he had his own plan, and when the three of them left the tavern, he secretly stuffed a note saying "See you at the dock late at night".
At this time, Lista suddenly turned to Hawke, patted the dust on his body very solemnly, cleared his throat, and said
"Mr. Hawke, I would like to ask you to join our team"
Hawke was a little dazed, with a little wine on his face, still leaning on the notice board, "I said boy, what are you doing like this all of a sudden, we only know each other..."
"Mr. Hawke, I'm serious" Lista didn't give Hawke a chance to refuse, and immediately raised his voice and bowed.
Lista's behavior almost made Hawke vomit, and he immediately stopped Lista's bowing, "I said, hey, don't suddenly make it like a marriage proposal, hey"
Hawke straightened Lista's body, and when Lista got up, Hawke saw Lista's eyes through the moonlight, which made Hawke panic for a while, the kind of eyes that were unwilling to protect someone but couldn't, just like his own eyes when his blacksmith master died.
"You... Have you ever lost anything?"
Hawke paused, and asked unconsciously, Lista was asked, but he was not surprised, because Lista could also feel the same experience from Hawke.
"What I lost was the person who gave me the name Lista, but when he died, I couldn't do anything, and when the signs of his loss of life fell in front of me, I could only vent my anger helplessly, but no matter what.... There's no way he'll ever come back."
Hawke only opened his mouth slightly after listening to what Lista said, and there was no amplitude on his powerful facial features, but he could feel that his pupils were trembling violently.
Lista continued, "After a long period of training, I joined the mercenary group with knighthood as my goal, I thought I was strong enough, but just the other day, when my teammates were in danger of being executed by werewolves, I still couldn't do anything"
Hawke: "Incompetent... for the force..."
Lista "I heard you're strong, so, Mr. Hawke, I'd like to borrow your power"
Hawke listened quietly to Lista, turned his back away from the notice board, and Hawke got serious, "I'm just a madman who loses his mind in battle, so can you be sure I can agree to join your team?" ”
"Mr. Hawke, becoming a knight is my goal, but what will happen when that goal is achieved?"
"Mr. Hawke, you are strong, but you are also empty, you have wandered the continent all the year round, but there is no one to keep you company, you have been living in the blacksmith shop because you have a unique bond with the blacksmith, just as I saw the gladiatorial arena of Rochester. After becoming a knight, I want to change the world, I will not be like the world, looking forward to the day when the goddess Jasmine will come, and then lead mankind to Eileen without pain and death, I want to really start from the bottom of the human race to change, really earnestly, change this world, there is no war, no hunger, and no people abandoned by fate. ”
Hawke "......"
Lista "Don't worry, it seems that none of us are good at it, become our teammates, and achieve it together"
Lista put his fist in the air against Hawke, who was looking at the full moon in the sky thoughtfully.
Hawke: "Brother Lista, you say, why are people who have been abandoned by fate still have precious things to lose"
Lista: "Maybe it's because we've been abandoned by fate that we've never been well"
Hawke: "So, what we're doing is resisting fate? ”
Hawk looked at Lista who still didn't put down his fist and didn't answer, expressing his acquiescence, Hawk laughed out loud and leaned his fist up, Lista, who was much thinner than Hawke, was knocked to the ground by Hawke's punch, and Lista didn't bother to get up, pillowing his head with both hands, looking at the full moon, although Lista was indeed sure to persuade Hawke to join, but after getting Hawke's affirmation, his heart was still a lot more open-minded.
"Brother, perhaps, you are the person I am looking for, the same person as me. Do you say, will those who have been abandoned by fate go to another fate....."
"Hawke!"
"What?"
"Tomorrow, you, I, and two of our other teammates have to kill one, werewolf"
"A werewolf? So strenuous? ”
"The Chief of the Werewolves"
"You're !!"
......
A few bird chirpings on the branches of the trees meant the arrival of early morning, when the sun was just poking its head out, and there were only a few people preparing for business on the road of Kuhan in a hurry, and the cold air leaking from the night collided with the sun, and a large fog rose from the ground, and at this time, on the road to the ruins of the north outside Kuhan, four people walked one after the other.
Fiona "Tata, so last night, you pulled this guy in?" ”
Lista "Na... Sister Na, don't suddenly shout out some strange names."
Hawke: "Hey, chick, what this guy, Hawke!" Hawk! ”
Fiona: "Okay, okay, got it"
Karui "Hahaha, it's really active, in that case, I'll continue to talk about what I mentioned last night, I think this Mr. Hawke is also a man who is not afraid of the gods, so I'll continue"
Hawke: "Gan, even a god has to eat me with one blow"
The crowd "......"
"So, brothers who don't believe in God, I want to pursue the balance of this world, but I think that the belief in gods in the world, or the goddess Jasmine of the human race, or the keyhole demon god of the demon race, they have upset the balance of the world and brought killing"
Hawke: "What, you're going to kill the gods?" I can."
The crowd "......"
Karui continued, "We have to pursue the freedom that comes without faith, so that those in the world who believe in God but are abandoned by God can use their own hands to achieve their goals, and humans and demons may not be enemies, I think we can find opportunities to be promoted to knights in the mercenary group, in Rochester, which is the closest place to the divine court, where you can get the truth"
Everyone listened to Karui's words and thought about it, and even Hawke, who had been restless, kept his mouth shut.
Fiona jumped to the front of the line and looked at the crowd, "That's... Give us a name for this secret organization."
"Hmm-"
It is true that an organization without a code name is not easy to act in the future, but the name is ......
Lista thought and said, "Freedom, peace, and dreams are not just a song called 'Rocky' in the mouth of a certain nomadic poet, how about being called Rocky?"
Karui "That's a good name, Rocky"
Fiona "Really good, with deep meaning"
Except for Hawke, who didn't understand much on the side, everyone hit it off.
The Divine Court, far away in the sky, would not have thought that in this wild area full of morning mist, "Rocky" was established, for the Divine Court, such an organization is heretics, and for the people on this continent, Rocky's will is to let people finally live their own lives, so that people who live in pain can change their destiny through their own efforts, rather than faith, God.
......
Destiny... Can it really change?
The "Rocky", who has been slowly approaching the ruins of the north, may not be able to change anything in the future, and getting them again really changed everything and became the "Rocky Hero", but in this world, fate is never decided by people.
At this moment, in the most mysterious part of this continent, the dragon wrapped in a huge black mist quietly fanned its wings, and this slight movement touched the small stone on the side, and the small stone splashed on the old stone pillar in the distance, and the stone pillar had long been eroded by the years, and under the collision of the small stone, the stone pillar collapsed.
Perhaps, just like fate, a small decision is changing everything.
