Chapter 26: Misunderstanding
Germain is evil, like the devil, taking advantage of Duke Arman's love for his family and the noble heart of Bishop Albin. Although he was not the initiator of the rebellion, it was he who discovered the small, dangerous fire in the hearts of the two of them, and then cultivated it into a flame.
And after that, he also took advantage of the guilt of the two to step on the throne of the king in a grand manner.
He's planned everything perfectly, and if anything, it's Leona. At least he didn't expect that one of Arman's most capable men would rebel so decisively and successfully reach the princess's side.
At this time, Leona had just woken up from her dream, and she was physically and mentally exhausted, and she almost fainted and slept until night.
[By the way, I'm in Mage City now.] 】
As the groggy head gradually cleared, the heavy reality once again weighed heavily on the heart.
[Ah, I really want to continue to pass out.] 】
The Iron Wing Knights' rebellion was like a tsunami that left her unable to breathe, but even so, she sat up, put on her gear, pushed open the door and walked out.
[At least, go meet Leah and Isabella.] 】
Suddenly remembering that she hadn't seen the two of them since she had been here, Leona decided to visit her long-lost companion.
[I'm afraid they are the only ones who can make me forget the pain for a while, Leah, Isabella.] 】
She thought so.
"Yo, wake up, Randall's hero. ”
At that moment, she noticed a man standing not far away, leaning against a wall. There was a hint of unkindness in his tone.
"May I ask who you are?"
"My name is Rowan, Rowan Roland. ”
The other party replied.
"I'm Leona. Leona Angelica. Is there anything wrong with you?"
"Ah, nothing. I just wanted to ask - how do you feel about betraying your master and fellow knights?"
Rowan, who was once a knight and then betrayed by his companions, stood in front of him another, also a knight, but a girl who betrayed the Knights.
"Ah, it sucks. If nothing else, I'll take my leave. ”
The person in front of him was obviously provocative, and although he didn't know where the other party's hostility came from, Leona was no longer the girl she used to be. She decided to ignore the other party's clumsy fault-finding.
"Yes, who is your master? Arman Britt, of the three nobles of Randall? Ah, it can be sold for a good price. ”
However, Rowan did not intend to let the other party go.
[That's right, just like that one, he sold Jessica and me for a good price.] 】
In his eyes, the other party was just a guy who betrayed his brother and came here alone, wanting to betray his former master. Rowan doesn't know about Leona's relationship with Isabella and Leah, and he hates knights, and he preconceivedly draws a guilty symbol on the girl.
"Take back your words. Sir!"
This time, Leona couldn't pretend she hadn't heard. The betrayal of the Iron Wing Knights was a fact, and she had no way to refute it, and she didn't want to. However...... She never thought of selling her benefactor. If there was something that prompted her to betray, it was only because she had her own friends and the righteousness in her heart!
"What if I say no?"
Rowan shrugged.
"Then you're going to have to pay for it!"
The girl's eyes were filled with obvious hostility.
"Hmph. Exactly, let's see who pays for it. ”
Rowan smiled.
"Follow me. I know a nice place. ”
He led Leona to a quiet corner with a small clearing.
"Former knight of the Iron Wing Knights. Leona Angelica, please!"
Leona didn't wait for the other to speak, and raised her weapon.
"Don't talk nonsense, since you've betrayed, what kind of face do you have to say this 'original'? Come on, let me see what you're capable of. ”
Rowan pulled out two short axes from his waist, and the opponent's weapon was a long sword, which was just right to deal with.
In the moonlight, the figures of the two warriors intertwined......
It was a quiet night, but it was also a sleepless night.
Isabella couldn't sleep at all, her mind was filled with rebellion, so she sat up from her bed and planned to go out for a walk.
On the way, she meets Karen and Alec, and the three of them look at each other, and it doesn't take them to say a word to know that they are both members of the Insomnia Party.
"Karen ......"
Qiang - !!
Isabella was about to speak when the sound of swords and halberds intersecting caught the attention of the trio.
"Let's go and see!"
The three of them followed the direction of the sound to a small clearing in the palace, where they saw Rowan and Leona in a duel.
[Woo, today must be the worst day of my life. 】
Isabella covered her forehead with her hand, and finally met up with her friends from the academy, only to be in the dueling arena.
"Oops!"
Alec knew Rowan's story, and he immediately understood that the other party must have misunderstood Leona. At this point, both of them are coming for real, and this duel must be terminated.
"Wait!"
However, Karen's stopped him.
"Kalian-sama!"
"I understand your concerns, and I know Rowan's background. However, Alec, don't you think this is a good opportunity, nothing can convey the heart of a warrior more than the sword in your hand, if you want me to say, let Leona prove herself in this way.
Of course, the princess doesn't have to worry, if there is a real danger, I will take action. ”
Rowan has only been here for a short time, but everyone knows that this is a prickly head who hates knights. Karen admired Rowan's martial arts and thought he was a genius. In the same way, she is also sympathetic to the other party's plight.
A knight betrayed by a knight, and a knight who betrayed a knight, at first glance seem to be completely contradictory individuals. However, in some ways they have a very similar temperament.
[Perhaps, with the help of this opportunity, he can change his opinion of the knight.] 】
Karene thought.
"I see. ”
Alec nodded, he understood Kalian's thoughts.
Since the regimental commander has guaranteed that this duel will never cause death, it seems that there is nothing wrong with letting them fight, and force is also a way of catharsis. Perhaps Leona is in need of such an opponent right now.
On the other side, looking at the two who were still fighting, Karen's eyes gradually lit up.
[Hmph, it looks ...... There seems to be more than one so-called genius. (To be continued......)
