Chapter 508 Sword and Siblings
Kino looked straight into Perseus' eyes, and asked calmly, "For what, for whom? As long as it can destroy the Scarlet Church, does it make any difference?"

Perseus still had no expression on his face, but put his hand on the hilt of his waist.

"Shua—" the sharp blade was out of its sheath, and the inch of light that the sun sprinkled on the sword was refracted to the surroundings, as if to illuminate the four directions of the world.

Perseus is no longer the young king who needed to go to battle in person, and the saber on his waist is mainly for decoration. It is not a legendary weapon, and practicality is not considered in craftsmanship. The forging and casting materials are all of the highest quality, plus it is worn by the king, so it is naturally a priceless treasure.

Perseus held the long sword upright in front of him, looked at it with eyes of admiring works of art, stroked the blade lightly with his fingers, and asked silently, "Do you know the difference between hands and feet and a sword?"

Kino: "Siblings are siblings, swords are swords, can these be compared together?"

Perseus tilted the long sword slightly, staring at his own reflection on the sword: "In my eyes, yes, they can be put together similarly. In my eyes, there are two types of people, one is siblings, and the other is swords. .”

"Siblings, as the name suggests, can be regarded as a part of me. Regardless of whether they are related by blood or not, they are my compatriots--Lan Xian, Sting, and Yuan Wen. These people are all brothers and sisters in my eyes. They are by my side, together After so many years of ups and downs in the kingdom, my trust in them has long been engraved in my bones."

When Perseus said this, he seemed to think of something, smiled and said: "Speaking of Sting, you know? This guy is actually a bit patriarchal. When Lorna was just born, he had a sad face and complained why he was not born. Son, after Sura and I closed the door and scolded him all night, he became honest and never dared to dislike Lorna again."

"But to be honest, I once had similar thoughts—it would be nice if Lorna was a boy." Perseus said with a sigh of emotion, "If Lorna was a boy, I would have let Lorna be a boy since I was a child." Lauder and Lorna are engaged to be married, they will be a match made in heaven, Lorna will be the dashing knight and Solandelle will be the happiest princess ever."

"I even thought about it, if Lorna's um... you know, orientation, what... I wouldn't mind, as long as Solandelle agrees, Sting and Lorna don't object, and I'm willing to entrust my daughter give her."

"What is brotherhood? This is brotherhood. They trust each other and are like a family."

"That's why I named Lorna a prince with a different surname. You may guess that there are political implications hidden in my actions, or that I saw Lorna's potential and wanted to use her official title to buy her in advance and win her over." People's hearts."

"No matter what you think, and whether you believe it or not, I can tell you very clearly, no. I named Lorna a prince with a different surname, without any deep meaning. I really regard her as a family. I have the utmost respect for my children. If there is any benefit, I will think of her first, and I will do my best to let her live the best life. This is what I call siblings."

When Perseus said this, he turned his sword and placed it in front of Kino, watching it shine in the morning sun, his voice was extremely deep: "But the sword is different. You can say that you trust your siblings, but you Can you say that you trust the sword in your hand?"

"Siblings have flesh and blood, but the sword is just a cold weapon, very sharp, it can kill the enemy, that's all. Many soldiers like to regard the sword as their partner, but in my opinion, this is a very serious mistake."

"A sword is a sword, hold it in your hand, it is a sharp weapon to kill the enemy, but don't forget, you can hold this sword to kill the enemy, and the enemy can also hold this sword, and use it to kill you in turn .”

"Who is killed by the sword depends only on whose hands it is held in."

"So, the best attitude towards a sword is to just treat it as a sword, temper it, maintain it, sharpen it when it is blunt, take it into battle after sharpening it, and remember to hold it tightly in your hand , do not be taken away by the enemy."

"This is the difference between siblings and swords. They both work for themselves. Siblings can be trusted unconditionally, but swords cannot. Siblings may become swords for some reason, but swords will never be accepted as siblings."

After Perseus finished speaking, Ruo looked at Kino meaningfully: "Do you have siblings? I guess not."

Kino leaned on the slanted rail and turned his back to the sun. The shadow of the backlight made his face hard to see. Only those amber eyes were so dazzling: "You guessed it, why are you asking?"

Perseus smiled slightly, and his tone was quite mysterious: "That's right, who can imagine that God of Death has siblings? Unless that person is also God of Death."

"To be honest, Chino, many people in the kingdom fear you and hate you. I often receive impeachment letters against you from secret channels, but I blocked them all for you, because I value you very much."

"Whether it is the powerful power that is feared as the god of death, the military strategy of the political army, or the miraculous ability to perceive visitors from outside the sky, it is a very gratifying thing for me that you can serve Douglande. "

"At the 56th "Kingdom Plenary Meeting", even if there is no reason for Solandelle to argue, I will try my best to keep you. You will still be the general of the "Death Legion", and you will still be the current The city "Consul" directly under your jurisdiction, lead those dead birds in black robes to gallop on the front line against the aliens, enjoy endless glory and wealth, this is what you deserve. "

"Okay, let's get far, now back to the original question - if you can copy the secret recipe of blood therapy in the future, and even find a way to completely cure the veterinary epidemic, what can I give you?"

"The answer is simple - equal." Perseus said every word, as if he wanted to turn the language into an awl and carve it into Kino's bones, "I will give you the right amount of credit you have made. The return of waiting, one is one, two is two, not more, and never less."

"As for what you did your meritorious deeds for, or for whom, I think about it now, maybe you are right, as you said—as long as you can destroy the Scarlet Church, does it make any difference?"

The port under the vast sky is so lonely that there is not even the sound of a seagull singing.

The supreme king, the god of death feared by the world, the king and his ministers face the sun and stand against the sun, silently watching each other.

"This is for you." Perseus put the sword into its sheath, untied it from his waist, and handed the sword that he had worn with him for 27 years to Kino's hand.

Perseus had a half-smile on his face, and his voice was as deep as the sea: "It's a sword, a good sword."
