Chapter 85: Recommendation
Savin and Eliza followed Exewin through the bustling hall to the saloon in the corner. As he walked, Exewin instructed the two: "Don't be rude when you see the king, just follow me." ”
Sawin felt a little disdainful in his heart, and said in his heart: "What is a mere human king, and I still have to salute him from the dragon clan?"
Sahain's dragon clan has not had a king for a long time, and it has always been a parliamentary system, so the whole clan has never had the concept of dignity and inferiority, and now it has come to a hierarchical society of human beings, and there are many rituals, which can teach Savin to feel very uncomfortable. On the contrary, Eliza and her mermaid clan have always been led by the king, so there is no resistance to this set.
"By the way, do you know what the king's name is?" Savin asked Exewin, but the tone was not very polite.
Exewin glared at Savan, and then replied in a low voice, "You speak carefully, there are so many people here, you are not afraid of causing trouble for yourself?"
Sawin said angrily, "Yes, understood." What's the king's name?" this time Sawan lowered his voice to a very low voice.
Afraid that he would continue to entangle, Exewin rolled his eyes and said, "King Linke's name is Berus Ike Gracewald, and he is generally called His Majesty Berus III, you can remember. ”
Samin pursed his lips with a look of disdain.
The salon in the corner of the hall has a semi-enclosed partition, so that the people inside can clearly see the situation in the hall, but it is difficult for the people in the hall to see inside. At this time, the king of Linkey, accompanied by the Count of Cooler, met with a group of people who had come to pay respects, only to see groups of people entering, and then coming out in batches, most of them just to salute and say a few words.
When the three of them came to the outside of the salon, a red-robed royal knight stretched out his arm to stop the three, and Exewin nodded slightly, and said, "Please report to Your Majesty, just say that Exewin and the other three have come to meet Your Majesty at the invitation of the Earl." The other party didn't say anything, nodded and turned to walk into the salon.
After a short time, the man came out of the salon and said to the three men in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has an order, please let the three of you in, please." ”
The three of them followed the Kings Knight into the saloon, where they saw the king and the count talking in a low voice, and as soon as they saw them enter, they immediately stopped talking. The Count hurriedly stood up, led the three to the king, introduced them to the king one by one, and then saluted the king one by one. According to the rules, when the man saw that the king should kneel on one knee, Sawin felt awkward for a while when he saluted, and he silently recited in his heart while saluting: "This is all acting, this is all acting......
After saluting, the king asked the three of them to sit down, this move surprised the earl, you must know that even if the duke comes to visit, he may not be able to get a seat, what is the matter with the king today?
After the three of them sat down, King Berus turned to look at Exewin and smiled, "I have heard of Miss Exewin's name for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to meet it last time I went to Pegasus Castle. ”
Exewin replied, "I happened to be out of town to select Pegasus for Lord Earl, so I was not able to see Your Majesty. ”
The king turned to look at the Count again and said, "I heard that my uncle's Pegasus has been trained well, why didn't you bring it to me this time?"
Count Cooler smiled and said: "I brought a lot of things this time, so I didn't come here on a Pegasus, and it is not easy for Your Majesty to see it, so I will send someone to bring Pegasus over." ”
The king waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later, there have been too many things lately, and I can't arrange it." ”
The Count said, "Also, if nothing else is said, just receiving foreign envoys is enough for Your Majesty to work hard." ”
"Yes, although it is my birthday, there are many more things in the kingdom than in my personal affairs, and the king is really not an easy job......"
Savin and Eliza were bored listening to the conversation of several people, if it weren't for the presence of the king, I am afraid that Samin would have yawned all day long.
At this time, the earl suddenly changed the topic and talked about the upcoming gladiatorial competition, "I heard that the gladiatorial competition will start in a few days, I wonder what outstanding people are in this competition?"
As soon as he talked about this topic, the king suddenly perked up, and he smiled: "I plan to make some changes in this competition. ”
"Oh, what kind of change?" asked the Earl, curiously.
"I plan to make this tournament an open competition, and not only gladiators from all over the world can participate, but even ordinary people can sign up for the competition, and there are already as many as 1,000 people who have signed up. The king said with great interest.
The earl's face showed a slight look of surprise, and said: "This is an unprecedented competition, presumably the whole continent will feel new, Your Majesty's idea is simply too good! I wonder if Your Majesty also intends to send someone to fight in place of Your Majesty?"
"That's natural, a few candidates have already been chosen, but I haven't decided who will represent me in the end......," the king said, with a look of hesitation on his face.
Savan, who had been sitting next to him without saying a word, suddenly widened his eyes when he heard the news, if everyone could sign up to participate, then wouldn't he be able to try it himself, after all, participating in person is much more exciting than being an audience. The thought that he might be able to compete with all the masters on the continent made Savan's heart pound with excitement, and it happened that the Earl said: "If everyone can participate, then I have an excellent candidate to recommend to Your Majesty, and you might as well let him play for Your Majesty." ”
"Who is this man my uncle is talking about?" said the king, looking very interested.
"That's the one next to me, Samin. The Earl's words surprised both Savin and Eliza, who did not expect that the Earl's choice turned out to be himself.
The king looked at Sawan a little differently, to be honest, he didn't take this young man to heart before, although he got the Sun King's headband, but how could a small mercenary get into his eyes. Hearing the Earl's solemn recommendation of Sahain at this time made the king look at the young man anew.
The king's gaze lingered on Savan for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Indeed a good young man. ”
Seeing that the king did not express his attitude clearly, the earl glanced at Exewin, only to see Exewin interject and say: "Savin is indeed very good, I have personally tried with him, and his potential is very amazing." ”
This time it was Savin's turn to be surprised, he didn't expect Axevin to think so highly of himself, Axivin had never praised himself so much before. Sure enough, Exewin's words worked, and the king turned his head to look at Exewin and smiled: "I didn't expect Miss Exewin to be a master, since you also said that Axivin is skilled, then give him a chance." ”
"Savan, thank you for your kindness. The Earl laughed.
Although Sawin felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, as long as he had the opportunity to compete, he could let go of this little unhappiness. So Savin said solemnly to King Berus: "Thank you very much for your kindness, I will not let your majesty down." ”
King Berus nodded and smiled: "I believe that Miss Exeven's vision will not be wrong, but my chief guard is in charge of this matter, and I will ask him to come to you when I go back, and he will arrange it." ”
Sawan thanked the king again, and the Count raised his glass and said, "Come, let's toast to the upcoming game." ”
After drinking the wine in the cup, the three of them withdrew, and just a few steps a royal knight caught up with him, and said to Exeven, "Miss Exeven, the Earl asks you to go over again, so I forgot to tell you." ”
Exewin had no choice but to say to Savin and Eliza, "Go first, and I'll go again." With that, he followed the Royal Knight and walked towards the saloon again.
Savin and Eliza didn't want to stay any longer, so they went back to the room, and as soon as they entered, Eliza pinched Savin's arm. "Ouch, what are you doing?" said Sawan, grinning in pain.
"Why did you agree to participate in that competition, do you know how dangerous it is?" said Eliza angrily, her eyes looking like they were about to burst into flames.
"I ...... This ......" Sawin was speechless for a moment, he was so excited that he had forgotten that Eliza hated gladiatorial matches.
Eliza pointed to the door and said, "Go tell them now that you can't go to the game!"
"How can this be, I have already promised the king, and now I regret it, wouldn't it be a breach of my promise, which the dragon clan cannot allow. Sawan said stubbornly.
"You ......" Eliza's eyes glistened with tears, and then she raised her pink fist and hit Savin's body, saying angrily: "You bully me, you bully me......"
Sawin didn't fight back, and waited until Eliza had enough to fight before he spoke: "Actually, I participated in the competition to train myself, and when I am strong, I can better protect you." ”
Eliza rolled her eyes and said, "You really will defend yourself, I don't believe what you said, you like to fight before you participate." ”
"No, I promised your father to protect you, if I am not strong enough, it will be impossible to do it, so I must improve my ability as soon as possible, so that I can fulfill my promise to your father. Sawin said with a smirk.
Eliza suddenly fell silent, and after a while, she said, "I really want to go home." ”
"Don't worry, I'll definitely take you back. Sawan hugged Eliza and said.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Exewin's voice came from outside the door: "Savan, Eliza, are you inside?"
"Please come in. Eliza agreed, quickly freeing herself from Savan's arms.
"You're all here, that's great. Exewin pushed the door in and said with a smile.
"Sister Exeven, is there anything wrong?" asked Eliza.
Exewin looked at Savin and said, "Actually, I wanted to tell Savan that tomorrow the king will send his chief of guard to test you." ”
"Test, why?" asked Savan, his face darkening.
"For the sake of the game, of course, do you think he's going to let someone he meets for the first time represent the king in such an important game?" said Exewin.
