382. Human nature
It's just a delusion.
It's just a beautiful fantasy of reality in the brain.
Everyone thinks so.
Whether it was because the hall where the banquet was held was dark, the reflection of the light under the skirt was too much like the stars in the night sky.
But Hervin doesn't think so.
He had just seen the overlapping figures of the two kings, Arthur and Voltigen.
But neither of them is natural at all, with distinct traces of artificiality.
Born King - Arthur.
The Invincible - Votiggen.
Herwin looked up as Enid slowly walked to the center of the crowd.
Another person next to Ms. Cullen also stood up.
Enid smiled without any flaws:
"Thank you for coming to my birthday party"
White Dragon Knight George Pendragon says:
"We would like to take this opportunity today to make two announcements. ”
Everyone was quiet, and most of them came here waiting for this moment.
George says:
"First of all, I would like to announce that Enid will be officially promoted from Honorary Vice-Master to Vice-Master of the Holy White Knights. ”
The crowd was instinctively startled at first, but then they quickly accepted the news.
Because judging from Enid's previous position as the honorary deputy leader, it was only a matter of time before she became the official deputy head of the regiment, but everyone thought that there was still a long time left, and even Enid had always thought so.
But perhaps because her appearance just now was so amazing, everyone naturally accepted George's statement at the moment.
Lady Cullen spoke:
"Another thing for me to announce, Councilor Gawain withdrew from the House of Lords some time ago......"
When it comes to this, many people sense that something is wrong.
Ms. Cullen says:
"I'm proposing that Enid also be a candidate for parliament. ”
Some people couldn't sit still, and a middle-aged man sitting in the front row stood up and said unceremoniously:
"A man who is both a councillor and a deputy head of the Order, not to mention that she is a disciple of George, your daughter, what's next? Is she both a captain and a chancellor? Do you still want your daughter to be regent?"
Several nobles around the middle-aged man spoke up and persuaded:
"Don't be in such a hurry, calm down first, and we can hear what Miss Cullen and Head George have to say. ”
The man did not back down:
"Your Excellency created the parliamentary system in order to divide political power from the Knights, so that someone might not have the power they should have, do any of you not know it?"
The middle-aged nobleman looked around, only to find that everyone had deliberately avoided his gaze.
It seems that Ms. Cullen has been prepared for a long time.
George says:
"Duke Ebron, calm down first, sit down, and let's talk slowly. ”
Chamberlain looked at George in silence and looked at George with a blank face:
"Yes, Your Excellency. ”
Ebrent paused at the thought of the Prince.
George also sat down:
"I don't think there's anything wrong with this, Duke Ebrun, you won't know, I'm the one who respects the king the most, so please don't get so excited. ”
Ebrun looked at him:
"You're acting too much, you shouldn't be involved in politics, they won't sit idly by. ”
George lowered his voice:
"Who? Royal Wizards? You may have forgotten why the Inlands were able to resist the infestations of other nations, not because of the three arrogant lizards who saw us as worms, nor because of the Wizarding Order, but because of our Knights.
"It's because of me, George Pendragon. ”
George knew that the most likely person to have an opinion today was the Duke of Aebridon, but if he could get Aebridon's promise, then all the members of parliament close to him would vote for Enid.
Ebran says:
"I don't think it's possible to agree to this happening. ”
George says:
"Maybe we can talk slowly, and I'm sure I'll be able to convince you that I have some reasons you can't refuse. ”
Surprisingly, Ebrun stood up directly at this moment:
"Let's talk now. ”
Nelly was surprised:
"Didn't he very much disagree with George's words, why go out with him now. ”
Aside from a few tables nearby, it wasn't possible to hear exactly what they were saying.
Siloren smiled:
"My father is such a person, if he makes a decision, he will do it immediately, and I don't think anyone will be upset that they will leave halfway. ”
Veronica asked:
"Is that your father?"
Ciro proudly said:
"That's right, it's my father, he's a great man. ”
Nelly looked at Ciro's expression and always felt that it was a little strange for Ciro to call his father great.
The greatness in Ciro's mouth is not the greatness of being a father, as others often say, but the greatness of being a person.
Nelly only has this impression of the dead, because greatness is too far away.
No matter what great deeds a person has made, if he lives in your neighborhood, it is difficult for you to think that he is great, and you will admire him and even revere him.
But the word great makes people feel associated with strangeness.
Only people you don't know, you will call him great, because people are still people, and if you really come into contact with him, you will leave the impression not of a great person, but of him, everything about him.
Living people.
At least that's what Nelly thinks.
She now suspected that she was the only ordinary person here.
Beef stew and roast turkey were slowly served by the waiters, while Ms. Cullen finished her "speech" about her daughter.
Hervin said to Nelly:
"I'm actually looking for you, did you bring that thing I gave you?"
Nelly nodded:
"I didn't bring it, but it's on me. ”
Veronica tilted her head slightly, expressing her doubts.
Hewen instructed with a serious expression:
"Until the next time I see you, you'll keep it. One thing in particular is to remember that you don't use it to kill. ”
Ciro frowned:
"Killing? You can't kill people no matter what, it's against the law. ”
Hervin says:
"Of course, killing people is not good, but there will always be times when people need to protect themselves, I believe that with Niri's current situation, you don't need to use it to kill, I'm not not not letting you kill, but just don't use it to kill."
"When I collect the materials, I'll help you reforge it. ”
Ciro looked at Veronica and saw that she was listening with relish.
nelly says:
"Okay, but why is that?"
Hervin says:
"Use it to kill and you will fall. ”
Nelly asked:
"Is there any evil power on it?"
Hervin replied:
"Yes. ”
He slowly uttered the name of the evil force:
"Humanity. ”
