Chapter 78: You Northerners!
"Hahahaha......"
Archduke Ronnie's mockery came faintly.
As if in response to Tails' words.
At that moment, Rumba only felt endless anger welling up in his chest.
Trudida blinked, trying to communicate with Aletheus, but the latter remained grim-faced and silent.
Archduke Leco was still seated at the square table.
Rumba took a deep breath and forced himself to look away from Tails.
So.
This is the end.
His next words sent chills through everyone's hearts.
"I'll ask you one last time, Grand Duke," said the Grand Duke of Black Sand indifferently, "is this your last choice?"
"Just give up our covenant and choose that kid's nonsense?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense.
Trudida frowned: Why hasn't the Prime Minister of Lisbane arrived yet?
Don't......
Tails looked at Rumba's expression and suddenly felt uneasy.
"For the last time?" Archduke Ronnie chuckled, "How dare you say it." ”
He pulled a headband out of his bosom, tied his long hair into a ponytail, and tucked it into the back neckline.
Rumba silently watched his movements, reading his response.
Archduke Leco's face became serious.
"Charman, leave room for each other," the boss sat impartially, his tone stiff, "let's settle this matter together—in another way, without being so ugly." ”
Rumba did not answer.
He shook his head, as if he had just given up on something and decided on something: "I knew that I could never count on you. ”
"Chaman!" Archduke Trudida's face changed, "You are still a member of the Grand Duke, we don't have to go that far." ”
"Hmph," responded to him, with a faint sneer from Rumba, "Who just said that I, as a monarch killer, am no longer a member of the co-governance oath?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Tails gritted his teeth.
Really.
Just as he had in mind.
"Rumba, you don't want to be enemies of the four of us," Auretheus said worriedly, "don't do anything stupid. ”
"Silly thing?" Rumba glanced at him and put his hand on his waist.
The next second.
"Boom!"
In the presence of all the Grand Dukes, with the sound of metal rubbing against leather, Rumba drew his sword!
The faces of the Grand Dukes changed in unison.
Tails chuckled in his heart.
It was a sharp, shiny knight's half-sword, which did not match its shabby, yellowed scabbard at all.
This shows that its owner had wielded the sword a thousand times, and at the same time took great care of the blade.
Just to one day, out of the sheath to kill the enemy.
Grand Duke Rumba looked at the others murderously.
Grand Duke Auresius sighed softly.
Tails felt some scalp tingling.
The next moment, Rumba jerked in the direction of the entrance of the hall and shouted, "Lhasa!"
The Grand Duke's voice was deafening, resounding inside and out.
Outside the hall, Viscount Kambida's voice was heard: "Your Excellency?"
I only heard Rumba roar angrily: "The whole army obeys the order, ready for battle!"
Tails was shaken inside, and Thelma's grip on his hand suddenly became tense.
In the next second, the outside of the hall seemed to be boiling in an instant!
"Boom la la ......"
Countless metal scrapes rang out in unison!
The voices also came one after another:
"Draw your sword!"
"Raise your shield!"
"Steady!"
More exaggerated than the commotion caused by Tails!
In the hall, the Grand Duke was very calm: Ronnie was methodically tying his hair, Auretheus slowly put his hand on the hilt of his sword, Trudida quietly retreated, and the seated Grand Duke Leco straightened up and began to move his fist.
They quietly confronted the rumba.
"In fact," Trudida whispered behind everyone, "he has several times more troops than us, and he still controls Valhalla and the city gates, so ...... It seems like we're doing stupid things?"
Tails gritted his teeth, he sighed, and clenched Selma's palm.
It's terrible.
This gang ......
Northland people who do it without saying a word.
A familiar shout came from outside the hall, alerting the rest of the Grand Dukes, "Your Excellency Archduke Raiko?"
Archduke Leco looked at the silent Rumba calmly and snorted softly.
"Lord Justin," the Grand Duke replied in a loud voice, "thank you and your comrades for your protection, and please do your best—you are worthy of the reputation of the Whiteblade Guard, and it is my honor to walk with you." ”
There was a second of silence outside the hall.
Until Lord Justin's voice came again: "It is also my pleasure, Your Excellency. ”
"I don't care who you belonged to before, the Grand Duke or the court, the white blade or the miscellaneous soldiers......" Justin outside the hall shouted, "But when you start working later, you have to look like a Northlander!"
Outside the hall, there were shouts and shouts in response.
It seems to be a force made up of the Grand Dukes and the remaining men of the court.
The Grand Duke nodded slightly—though Lord Justin couldn't see it at all.
He returned his attention to the field.
"You might as well reconsider, kid. Leko said lightly to Rumba.
"We could have worked together to open up the future for Exeter," Rumba said coldly, turning his sword slowly, "but if you were an obstacle, not a help......"
"What's the use of me keeping you?"
As soon as this remark came out, Ronnie sneered, Auresius sighed heavily, and Trudida rubbed his hands together with a helpless expression.
Tails felt as if something was completely shattered between the Grand Duke and Rumba.
He knows that that layer of things is called "tacit understanding", also called "rules".
From now on, the scene and the situation are sliding in unpredictable directions.
Tails couldn't help but tighten his breathing.
"Charman, think clearly about the consequences, and no matter if you lose both, even if you kill us all here," Archduke Leco was unhurried, as if it was just a military training in front of him: "What should you do to face the Prime Minister of Lisban, the Dragon City at this moment, and the whole of Exeter?"
Rumba shook his head: "It's not the outcome I want most, but you've forced me to have no choice. ”
"Bang!" Auretheus pulled out the two-handed heavy sword at his waist.
He sighed, "Not only will you be targeted, but Exeter will be in chaos after we die - this is what you want?"
Tails looked at the heavy sword that had almost wiped his neck, and his brow curled slightly.
I only heard Rumba say coldly: "Whether it's killing the king or being disrespectful—after you get out of here alive, no matter what reason you find, you won't let me go, whether it's because I broke the oath of co-governance, or because of that little brat's nonsense." ”
"Even if I lose everything in the ruins...... It can't get worse than it is now!"
"Coward. Grand Duke Ronnie, who had his hair tied, replied simply, and at the same time drew his weapon, a sharp sword that shimmered with cold light, and at first glance was not ordinary.
He stood side by side with Auretheus, facing Rumba solemnly.
Rumba turned to Tails, flicked his saber, and narrowed his eyes:
"As for you, I'll give you the most appropriate end, Prince Tails Star. ”
Is...... What a good chessboard.
Tails exhaled helplessly.
"After me, Prince Tails, Lady Selma," Archduke Leco chuckled as he looked at Rumba's expression, "I'm old, but I'm a Northlander. ”
"Before I fell. ”
"No one can hurt you. ”
The old duke got up slowly, and there was undoubted majesty in his words.
He drew a short knife, like a giant beast that had just awakened.
Tails smiled back.
Trudida sighed, holding the short sword at her waist, but stood a little farther away: "I hate today. ”
In the field, there was already tension between Ronnie, Auretheus and Rumba.
"It is said that your brother stood still and let you stab you three times before you killed him?" Ronnie shook the sword in his hand contemptuously, provoking Rumba without fear.
"But we're not going to be shackled," Ronnie snorted, "one against two...... Are you ready to die here, Chaman?"
Aletheus held his sword in both hands, his face was serious, and he did not say a word.
"Are you kidding?" Rumba seemed unaffected by the words, and he appeared unusually calm as he entered the combat state:
"I've been ready for every second since that day twelve years ago. ”
Their swords were pointed at each other, like the most sincere Northlanders—without mercy.
At that moment, Tails unconsciously glanced at Selma: the girl's face was pale, but she no longer had the cowardice and panic she had before, and only calmly looked at him with inquiring eyes.
It was as if the words spoken in front of the Grand Duke had given her a lot of courage.
Looking at her expression, the nervousness in Tails' heart suddenly dropped a lot.
At this moment, Tails's voice also sounded in his ears: "Now, do you need me?"
"I'm just going to ask one last time - the Soul Killer has found me, and I must leave immediately. ”
With a lot of annoyance, Tails let out a long sigh as well.
Thelma, who was beside her, gave him a strange look.
Tails closed his eyes gently.
。
He clenched his fist.
That's enough.
You guys......
You ......
The next second.
Both Aletheus and Ronnie took a stand and waited for it.
Rumba, who had a fierce light in his eyes, slowly opened his mouth: "The whole army obeys the order-"
I only heard the Grand Duke of Black Sand shouting violently:
"Kill him ......"
At this moment, an immature male voice suddenly resounded in the hall-
"Is that enough!"
The voice was so loud and piercing that it even cut off Rumba's words.
The Grand Dukes were stunned for a moment and turned their heads back.
Under everyone's stunned gaze, at some point, the second prince of the stars, His Royal Highness Tails Bright Star, had already climbed onto the rectangular table.
At this moment, with his head covered with charcoal ashes, the prince stamped his feet and waved his little fist, his face contorted, and he cried out to the people of the whole hall through gritted teeth:
"You rude, violent, stupid, impulsive, perverted, uneducated, impolite, uneducated, pretentious, self-righteous, self-talking, all you know all day long is the Northerners who know how to be abrupt, fighting, killing, killing, and doing things!"
"Listen carefully to me!"
At that moment, the Grand Dukes, who had been scolded for their heads and faces like never before, seemed to be unable to react, and looked at Tails in shock.
The prince uttered a long breath in one breath, bent down to his knees, and gasped for two painful breaths as the sins of the river receded from his vocal cords.
Under the table, Thelma looked at him stupidly.
"I," Tails took a deep breath, straightened up again, and tapped painfully on his aching chest from shouting, "I have an idea......
"It's better than a lose-lose outcome...... Much better. ”
