22. Invisible wall (12)

PS: There will be one more time later, and the soul is out of body today......

There can be no doubt that, apart from the person in question, Yalfheim knew from top to bottom that the conservatives were a bunch of burlesque performers who were constantly staging an unsuccessful drama that would never succeed - overthrowing Li Lin's dominance.

The gap in force, intelligence, financial resources, and temperament is obvious enough for children to see, but they still insist on trying the reincarnation of [repeated defeats and battles], like a stupid cat who repeatedly wants to catch mice, but is constantly teased by screenwriters and mice, bringing joy to the audience for all ages, and injecting some new elements into the highly busy pace of life in Alfheim, I really don't know whether to admire them or spurn them.

What should Tristan, a relative of these farce performers, who is also highly precocious, and who is obsessed with the inevitable failure of his father, grandparents, and elders?

It is impossible to echo those who mock the elders of his family, nor to persuade his own relatives who are deluded, Tristan has experienced the torment of [Position] early on.

You can't move forward, and you can't go back. Watching the farce play out day after day and do nothing, Tristan's heart slid down the hill like a carriage that had lost its brakes.

For a few months, he deliberately skipped class, or violated the rules and discipline of the school, and vented his frustration and despair through such childish behavior. Despite the harsh corporal punishment inflicted by his grandfather and father, the precocious rebellious son did not stop his only means of resistance because of the rattan and the bruises and lacerations on his back. Until he met Parsifal.

It may have been pure accident, but after meeting Parsifal, who came from an ordinary family, Tristan went from being a troubled child of disobedience to disobedience to being a model student - at least on the surface, but his inner rebellion never went away.

Tristan chose to become a member of the Children's Regiment, targeting the Archon Li Lin, and trying to emulate the words and actions of the Lord. Studying his theories and knowledge, he intends to turn himself into another Li Lin -- a great being who can make that corrupt [family] helpless and suffer setbacks again and again.

There is no doubt that this is a childish act of rebellion. It is also a means of resistance that at least seems more viable.

The rebellion against the family turned into a fanatical worship of Li Lin, and every word of Li Lin was taken as truth, and Tristan saw Li Lin as a light that illuminated the darkness.

At this time, Roland appeared next to Li Lin.

"I'll admit that Roland Dahlke is really good. It is precisely because of his excellence that he has the value that makes me do my best to surpass him even if I am unreasonable. ”

No. Perhaps even this is a kind of quibble.

The boy who knew nothing and looked innocent somehow became the adopted son of the great consul - with an inexplicable anger at this sudden event, and wanted to punch him hard in that hypocritical face, hoping to use this vent to forget the smell of [home] entangled in him.

It had nothing to do with race, status, or status, but simply a heartfelt unhappiness at Roland, who was under the protection of an incorruptible and noble consul, and who did not have to do with the rancid smell of sewers in [the house].

"It's ugly, isn't it? Blame your own problems on irrelevant people, and then justify it: It's not me who is at fault, it's all his fault. ”

"It's ugly. "Follow the words of self-loathing. Parsifal smiled bitterly: "But it's not ugly, after all, everyone will have objects or things to envy, and they also have the right to envy those parts of others that they don't have and lack." ”

"Envy...... Is it?"

Hearing Parsifal's words, Tristan smiled shallowly, as ugly as crying and laughing.

Envy.

Everyone has power and instinct. Simple words and instincts, as the head of the big clan, the grandson of the Wittelsbach family, who was cultivated as a future patriarch and even the speaker, could only whisper it in the darkness with Parsifal.

Since birth, he has been praised, pampered, and surrounded by various contracts, and the results of the 4-year-old intelligence test made the kindergarten once hope to send him to the military academy by skipping the grade, and he became the group leader less than two months after joining the children's regiment, and was praised by the regiment branch as "an activist with excellent coordination and organizational skills" and "promising to develop into a backbone cadre] -

If it weren't for the precedent standard set by that archon who was too terrifying, this child would have been called a "prodigy" and a "genius" a long time ago, right?

Regarded as a very happy child by everyone, Tristan should not envy other children, not to mention that the other party is still a human being.

Only Parsifal knew how depressed he was.

"Grandpa opened a bottle of wine this evening, and the red wine that had been in the cellar for more than 40 years was more expensive than the same amount of gold. He was reluctant to drink it, so he left it in the ground. ”

Accustomed to the dark head hanging down, he made a sneer disproportionate to his age:

The patriarchs of Matthias and Thierry also came, and their grandfather and father drank and sang with them. I didn't even notice when I came out. They decided that everyone no longer trusted the consuls and could move forward with the No-Confidence Proposal. ”

The so-called "Motion of No Confidence" was the last killer weapon of the Senate against the king in the era of the Kingdom of Gilmania - if the king was too stupid and brutal to endanger the survival of the country, as long as it had the support of more than two-thirds of the senators, the Senate could replace the king and temporarily govern the state until the new king ascended the throne.

Parsifal was a child with an interest in studying historical allusions, and he couldn't help but sigh without Tristan explaining it in detail.

"That power has never really been used in history. ”

In all the historical records, there has never been a record of the complete falling out between the king and the Senate, let alone the precedent of zĂ i using the "Motion of No Confidence" to depose the king.

Speaker Witsbach wanted to set two historical records - the first launch of the "No Confidence Proposal" and the first removal of an able leader from office. Parsifal felt like her brain was hurting.

"It's ridiculous, but I'm a kid of this ridiculous family. ”

"Tristan ......"

Tristan's ability to see the dark faces of his relatives is the source of his suffering.

Ordinary children don't need to know anything, as long as they learn knowledge slowly, embrace joy under their parents' knees, and grow up playing carefree. Tristan, who has been given great expectations, cannot do so. Bound to his position, unable to move, his defense was not accepted. I can only watch silently.

"Let's talk about it today, it's not too early, you should rest, I'm going home too. ”

Unable to find the answer to his question and the solution, Tristan stood up, unable to see his face in the dark, but Parsifal knew that he must have put on the mask of the Honor Student.

The slightly slumped back walked to the bedroom door and paused.

"Parsifal. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Thank you. ”

Without waiting for his friend to respond, the Wertersbach boy walked out. (To be continued.) )
