Kealand
Chapter 2
Chapter 2
On the other side, since Kaiwen left, he ran all the way to the city gate along the street, but immersed in joy, he soon realized a very serious problem, that is how to get to Caldari safely.
Although Caldari has a transcendent status in the human continent, there are not a few people who know it, but from the imperial capital to Caldari, you need to go through a vast jungle, where the danger of monsters entrenched is naturally needless to say, but if you take a detour, you can’t. It was guaranteed to arrive within five days, so at this time he had no choice but to ask others for help.
Thinking of this, Kaiwen looked back and found that the old man and the young man had disappeared into the sea of people. He couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart. He thought he could seize this opportunity, but now he seemed to be in a deadlock again.
But when Kaiwen was frowning, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he fell straight to the ground. He tried his best to support his body with his hands, while blood dripped down the tip of his nose and fell to the ground.
This sudden blow made Kaiwen dizzy. He instinctively looked behind him, only to see two soldiers holding long sticks and looking at him with grim smiles. One of them still had bruises on his face. Qing was the one who was injured by Aowei earlier.
But before Kaiwen came back to his senses, the soldier who was injured earlier swung a long stick around his head and beat him, and Kaiwen's mouth suddenly let out repeated screams.
After seeing this scene, some people walking on the street also cast their gazes here. When the wounded soldier saw this, he pointed the bloody stick at the crowd and shouted, "What are you looking at! Disperse them all!" Already!"
Hearing this, the crowd of onlookers dispersed immediately, and the other soldier couldn't help but sighed softly when he saw this, and frowned: "Just calm down, don't kill anyone, or you won't be able to explain to the superiors."
"So what if you beat him to death? No one cares about a beggar like him." The wounded soldier snorted coldly, and then threw the bloody stick aside, but just as he was about to leave , but saw a faint light emitting from Kaiwen's neck, and then saw the bruises on his body fading little by little.
Such a strange scene couldn't help but startled the soldier, and his eyes fixed on the necklace on Kaiwen's chest for a moment, and he asked in doubt: "What is this?" While speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Kaiwen patterned necklace.
When Kaiwen saw this, he quickly shrunk his body into a ball, no matter how punched and kicked by the opponent, he still held on to the necklace and refused to let go. Seeing this, the soldier stepped on Kaiwen's back angrily and pulled it with his hands. Kaiwen was immediately strangled, his nose and tears flowed down in an instant, and dry voices kept coming out of his mouth, he struggled hard but his consciousness gradually became blurred.
At the same time, a carriage slowly passed by on the street, looking at Kaiwen whose life was hanging by a thread, a girl in the carriage frowned slightly, and whispered: "Will, what's going on outside? "
A knight in armor glanced at the crowd, and then said respectfully, "Miss Hui, it's just a guard teaching a little beggar a lesson. It's not unusual."
"Even so, they are too aggressive." The girl looked at Kai Wen through the car window, her brows were slightly frowned, and she said in a deep voice, "Stop the car and let me get down."
Hearing this, Will suddenly gave a wry smile, and said helplessly, "Miss, we don't need to intervene in such matters, so as not to delay the business."
"But since I saw it, I can't ignore it!" The girl snorted softly, and regardless of Will's obstruction, she pushed open the door of the carriage and jumped down, sternly shouting: "Stop it!"
Hearing this, the two soldiers were stunned, and the injured soldier loosened Kai Wen's necklace reluctantly, and said with a frown, "Who is your Excellency? We are doing routine business, please don't interfere." After the previous experience, the injured soldier was obviously a lot more polite to the girl, and judging by the girl's attire, the other party must be from a wealthy family, but with her appearance, the crowd that had dispersed gradually gathered around .
"Routine business?" The girl sneered suddenly, her beautiful eyes also turned to the embarrassed Kai Wen, and said: "I want to know what he did? It's worth fighting like this."
"He stole something!" The soldier pointed confidently at Kai Wen, who was still coughing, and said, "How could he, a little beggar, have that necklace? So he must have stolen it!"
"I didn't..." Kai Wen choked up and put the necklace back in his arms. While tears were falling, he looked up at the girl.
However, the moment Kaiwen saw the girl, he froze in place, because he had never seen such a beautiful girl before. Those light blue beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with stars and seas, and his long golden hair hung down. On both sides of the shoulders, there is a natural temperament in every gesture. Looking at the girl at this moment, she looks like an angel.
The soldier glared at Kaiwen viciously, but instead slapped him and asked repeatedly: "Then what evidence do you have to prove that you didn't steal this necklace?"
Hearing this, Kaiwen smiled wryly, because he really couldn't prove that the necklace was his own, and the other party's words didn't make any sense at all. While feeling anxious, he wiped away the tears on his face with his hands, and said slowly: "This necklace has been with me since I woke up. Although I don't know it well, I think it must be left by my relatives."
"You're lying!" The soldier pointed at Kai Wen and snorted coldly, then turned his head to the girl and said, "Miss, you have also seen that this necklace is by no means an ordinary item, how could it appear on a little beggar's necklace?" Body? So there must be something wrong with him, please continue your journey and don’t interfere with this matter.”
"I don't think so." The girl glanced at the soldier coldly, then walked to Kaiwen's side, leaned down and said slowly, "Can I see your necklace?"
"En." Kaiwen responded softly, the distance between the two was so close that Kaiwen could even hear the girl's breathing, and then he held up the necklace on his chest for the girl to look carefully Eye.
At the same time, an old man in the crowd also fixed his eyes on the necklace, his expression was astonished as if he had seen something unbelievable.
The girl frowned and pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "This is indeed not an ordinary item, even I have never seen such a thing, but the person who can own this necklace is by no means an ordinary person , how could it be stolen by a beggar? So at least this necklace was definitely not stolen by him. "
Hearing this, the two soldiers were at a loss for words, because the girl's words were not unreasonable, how could someone who could own such a treasure be stolen by a beggar living on the street, and the previous questioning intention was obvious, how could the girl not know what they were thinking.
"Why don't you talk?" The girl sneered when she saw that the two soldiers didn't speak, then she stood up slowly and said, "I see that you are clearly trying to snatch other people's things! What you are doing is no different from robbers." What's the difference?" Speaking of which, she looked back at Will behind her, and said in a deep voice, "Take these two people to meet their captain! Find out whose subordinates they are!"
"Yes!" Will replied respectfully, and then said in a low voice, "But miss, we still have official business, so don't delay the trip because of these trivial matters."
Hearing this, the girl frowned in embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, she said slowly, "In this case, write down their names first, and settle accounts with them after the work is over."
"Yes." Will nodded in response, and turned towards the two soldiers, but seeing that the girl's eyes were not looking this way, he whispered, "Go away now? Do you really want me to Do you remember your names?"
"Thank you, thank you!" After the two soldiers thanked each other a few times, they ran away without looking back.
Seeing the two soldiers running so embarrassingly, the girl couldn't help but burst out laughing, wondering, "What's wrong with them?"
"It's nothing, maybe I was frightened by your aura, miss." Will smiled lightly, and then said seriously: "Miss, we don't have much time, the generals are still waiting for you."
"Understood, just wait for me first." The girl responded casually, then turned her gaze to Kai Wen, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, can you sell me this necklace? I know this necklace is very important to you. It might be important in terms of money, but you're not safe with it, so the price is up to you as long as you're willing."
Hearing this, Kaiwen couldn't help being startled, but she didn't expect the girl to have taken a fancy to his necklace. After a helpless smile, she shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell this necklace, because it is very likely that I found a relative. The only way."
"So that's the case." A look of disappointment flashed in the girl's eyes, but the smile on her face was still sweet, and she said, "If you change your mind, you can go to Caldari to find me at any time." After finishing speaking, she slowly said He stood up and walked towards the carriage.
"Wait!" Seeing that the girl was about to leave, Kai Wen quickly stood up, looked at the girl's back, and said, "What's your name, please, if I can go to Caldari, I will definitely repay you. "
Hearing this, the girl looked back and smiled sweetly, and said her name 'Tyl' so lightly, and then stepped into the carriage.
Kaywen stood there in a daze and watched the carriage go away for a long time, he would be overwhelmed, and Tyre's name was engraved on his heart like a brand, that smile seemed to make him forget the pain on his body.
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared at the end of the street that Kai Wen slowly came back to his senses, and then staggered towards the outside of the city.
At this time, Kaiwen also had mixed feelings in his heart, because what happened today was far more than what he experienced in the past three years, and he couldn't tell whether what happened today was his chance or his sad fate. Added another innocuous memory to the world.
After a long while, Kaiwen left the Royal City of Merun, looking back at the city Kaiwen had lived in for three years, but he didn't have any nostalgia in his heart, on the contrary, he was relieved when he saw no one following him.
Because he wasn't sure if those two soldiers would follow up to take revenge on him. If he was going through the same thing, he might really die here, but no matter what, he escaped death by a narrow margin. If it wasn't for Tyre and The old man who made the move earlier may have died in the city of Merun.
"Young man, what's wrong with you?" Just as Kaiwen turned his head to look inside the imperial capital, a strange voice came from his ear.
Hearing the sound, Kai Wen immediately looked back like a frightened bird, and finally felt relieved when he saw that the other party was just an old man with white beard and hair, and then smiled wryly: "It's nothing, I just encountered some troubles."
"It seems that you have experienced a lot of twists and turns." The old man looked at Kai Wen with a smile, and asked in doubt: "Can I ask you a question? It is this necklace on your chest. I don't know where it came from? "
Hearing this, Kaiwen couldn't help being startled, and instinctively pulled his clothes to cover the necklace, but the clothes on his body were already in tatters, and with the previous beating, the clothes on his body had already turned into several rags.
Seeing Kaiwen's nervous expression, the old man suddenly smiled helplessly, and said slowly: "Don't be afraid, my little friend, I have no malicious intentions, because I am also a refugee, so I just called you out of curiosity when I saw you leaving in such a hurry , I want to ask you if there is any good place to go."
Hearing this, Kaiwen was stunned. He thought he had encountered a villain again, but he didn't expect that the other person was just here to ask for directions, but he had never left the imperial capital for three years, and he knew nothing about the outside world. With a bitter smile, he said, "Actually, I don't have any good places to go. It's just that an old gentleman said that as long as I can arrive in Caldari within five days, he will let me become a student. This is his token for me." Spreading out his hand, there was a piece of transparent and flawless crystal on it.
"Five days?" The old man frowned as he looked at the crystal in Kaiwen's hand, and a complex look flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Little friend is really blessed, but with your current body you want Crossing the entire human territory is not an easy task. Leaving aside the dangers along the way, even high-level knights may not be able to cross the entire human territory on foot within ten days. Besides, the energy crystal in your hand is not protected. Under the circumstances, it can only last for three days, that is to say, the crystal will shatter by itself after three days, presumably the other party made such a promise to you because they knew this."
"How is this possible?" Kaywen looked at the old man in disbelief. He had never thought that Caldari would be so far away, but he only had five days. More importantly, if the crystal in his hand was really like what the old man said Said, then even if he walked to Caldari in five days, it wouldn't make any sense.
Kai Wen couldn't help feeling a little bit bitter in his heart. There was no resentment in his heart for the promise that the old man made to him, but more doubts. Could it be that the other party gave him such a promise because he believed that he could not fulfill it?Or this so-called promise was just a joke, but he foolishly took it seriously.
It was at this very moment that Kaiwen felt that everything he knew had changed, and he sat down on the ground disheartened. He originally thought that he could change his destiny with this opportunity, but now it seemed that he was It's so ridiculous.
Tears slipped down Kaiwen's cheeks unconsciously, and she kept thinking in her heart, do I want to accept my fate?Let's just accept his fate, a feeling of unwillingness sprouted in his heart, he hated this kind of world, and also hated this kind of background.
However, the old man on the side still looked at him with a smile, and said: "Maybe the other party just wants to make you realize the reality through this incident, but if you insist on going to Caldari, you can go with me, because I It just so happened that I was planning to go East to meet an old friend."
Kaiwen, who was sitting on the ground, kept wiping away tears, choked up and said, "But... I have no way to get to Caldari within five days."
"How do you know if you don't try?" The old man smiled lightly and stretched out his hand to pull Kaiwen up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Don't give up hope until the last moment, maybe you can really do it, so time is running out, let's hurry up Let's go."
Hearing that Kaiwen was a little hesitant, but the old man didn't seem to want to be the kind of person who seeks money and murder, besides, he has no better way to follow the old man at the moment. After nodding in agreement, he followed the old man all the way to the distance go.
At the same time, several chariots drove into the city of Merun King. The leading chariot was particularly eye-catching. I saw two huge earth dragons pulling a body that looked like a steel castle. Full of sharp blades, it rumbles when driving, which can be described as amazing.
The person on the chariot is even more eye-catching, but it is better to say that the other party is a beast than a human being. He is wearing heavy armor and is nearly three meters away. His exposed skin is dark green and scarlet. His eyes are as sharp as knives exuding a fierce air, and there are two winding upturned fangs on both sides of his mouth, which looks like a ghost or a demon on earth.
However, people who have really seen the world know that this is not a wild beast or a monster, but the Beamon giant beast of the orc race. This person is also the eldest son of the Beamon king of the orc race. He was promoted to a high-ranking knight when he was just over [-] years old, and he can be regarded as a man of the hour in the entire Kealan continent.
But such a person suddenly appeared in the city of Merun, but the residents of the city of Merun could not help but worry a little. After all, the status of human beings is not as good as before, and the grievances between the two races of humans and beasts have lasted for thousands of years. When they came to the city in person, the people were a little panicked for a while.
However, when the pedestrians on the street were discussing a lot, a group of people appeared on the road leading to the palace. They were busy laying the carpet. After a while, an old man with a king on his head walked towards Astan on the red carpet. The army led by Tesho.
After meeting, the two looked at each other, and a smile gradually appeared on the king's face, and he said slowly, "I welcome you on behalf of the human race, prince of the orc race."
Hearing that Astante also got off the chariot, he gave a deep salute to the king, and said loudly: "It is my honor to come to the nobleman's territory. On behalf of my father, I pay tribute to His Majesty. The friendship between the two clans will last forever." , prosperity!"
"Please!" The king made a gesture of invitation generously, and the minister beside him also took the initiative to give way to the palace.
Seeing this, Astante laughed loudly, and walked with the king to the distant palace.
After seeing this scene, passers-by on the street did not sigh secretly for a while, only to see a young man looking at Atante's back and sighing softly: "As expected of the prince of the orc clan, he has such courage at a young age. Come to think of it, if our human race can form an alliance with them, I see who would dare to look down on our human race!"
After hearing that man's words, an old man beside him shook his head with a sad expression, and sighed softly: "The human race was so powerful back then, but now they can only rely on the power of a group of demihumans." To maintain your own peace, no matter how you look at it, it can only be regarded as lingering."
"That's right, if the ancient emperor is still around, how can this group of subhumans be so rampant?" Hearing this, another old man also sighed helplessly, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
"Ancient Emperor?" The young man raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said with a sneer: "Somedi has long since become the past, and now it has become a tomb, so what if the ancient emperor is still alive? Could it be that with his own strength, he can compete with the ancient emperor?" Compete with the thousands of troops of the Beast Emperor Guard?"
"Shameless!" A look of anger appeared on the old man's face, and he snorted coldly: "The glory of Somedi back then was incomparable even if you look at the Shenting now, let alone a group of subhumans? I suggest you learn more and see more." , don’t forget your own dignity.”
The old man's words immediately aroused heated discussions, because many people knew how glorious Somedi was once. Although the royal city of Merun was resplendent and magnificent, it was only a county guard in the past.
The man was also a little annoyed by the old man's words, and he yelled: "Old man, you are looking for a beating on purpose!" The sound of the road breaking through the sky suddenly sounded, and he staggered and took two steps forward before falling directly to the ground, and even lost a few front teeth in his mouth.
After the man got up, he covered his mouth and looked around but couldn't see who made the move. He was shocked and his face became a little panicked. Then he fled to the distance without thinking, and his distressed appearance immediately attracted people around him. A burst of laughter from people.
However, while the crowd was discussing, the two figures quietly passed through the crowd and walked straight towards the palace, as if they didn't want to attract others' attention.
"Master, I think that guy must be hating the person who just shot." Aowei couldn't help chuckling after seeing the man's embarrassed appearance.
"Hate?" The old man raised his eyebrows lightly, glanced at Aowei from the corner of his eye, then continued to walk forward, and said coldly: "He should be grateful, if I didn't stop him, I'm afraid that It would be easy for Mr. to kill him."
After hearing the old man's words, Aowei froze and froze on the spot. He didn't expect that it was his master who just made the move, and it was still in such an unconscious situation, but he was surprised At the same time, he was also secretly grateful for his decision to become a teacher.
Looking back at Aowei's adoring face, the old man shook his head lightly. If it wasn't for his family background, he would never have accepted Aowei as his disciple.
"Let's go quickly, the imperial capital should be very lively today." The old man turned his head and greeted, then quickened his pace and walked towards the palace first, and Aowei followed closely after hearing the words.
And the two of them can be said to be unimpeded along the way, because Aowei wears the badge of Caldari on his chest, and he is also a nobleman belonging to the son of the Duke.
However, not long after the two entered the palace, they saw a young girl in a long white dress walking slowly through the crowd to the king.
The girl's beautiful silhouette was as breathless as an angel's. Her long golden hair hung down her shoulders, and her two slightly wrinkled eyebrows showed a trace of stubbornness in her heart.
It's just that beside such a moving flower, there is a Beamon standing nearly three meters tall, which looks a bit nondescript no matter how you look at it.
"Tyr!? Why is she here?" Aowei looked at the girl in amazement, because Tier and him are both Caldari students, and his grades are among the best in Caldari and his aptitude is very good.
But as to why she was dressed like this and why she appeared here, Aowei couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, and then turned his attention to his father who was chatting with someone not far away.
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the palace, and everyone seemed to be curious about why Tyre appeared on such an occasion, and in such a way.
But when everyone was puzzled, the king waved his hand lightly to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly: "Today the prince of the orcs, Astante, established an alliance with our clan on behalf of the orcs! From today onwards, the orcs are my The alliance of the clan!" Speaking of this, there was an uproar in the audience, but the king continued indifferently: "In order to show the friendly relationship between the two clans, I hereby marry Miss Till, the adopted daughter of General Tino, to the beast clan. Prince Astante! May the friendship between the two races last forever! The covenant is immortal!"
The king's words immediately aroused heated discussions, and everyone looked at Tyre with regretful eyes.At this moment, the old man and Aowei were equally astonished. They thought that the king had summoned them for something important, but they didn't expect to see the scene before them.
I saw the old man frowning deeply, and his eyes were looking at a middle-aged man not far away. I saw that man was wearing a pair of silver-white armor, and there was also a hint of helplessness in his expression And this person is also the focus of everyone's attention, because he is Tire's adoptive father, General Tino.
"I object!" An angry voice resounded from the crowd, and the bustling imperial palace suddenly became silent, and then a luxuriously dressed man walked out of the crowd, with a handsome face and a dignified appearance, standing in front of the tiger's mouth on his right hand. With a bear paw imprint on it, which is their family crest, he looked coldly at Astante beside Tire, and said in a deep voice: "I have been guarding the frontier for many years, and I have dealt with countless orcs. , They invaded our territory and killed the people, and now they let Miss Tier marry the prince of the orc clan, aren't they afraid of being ridiculed?"
As soon as this remark was made, many people echoed it, but a look of displeasure appeared on the king's face, but before he could speak, another man in a gray cloak walked out of the crowd.
"If you don't want to guard the frontier and tell His Majesty, what's the point of threatening His Majesty with these words? Duke Lanna?" The man in the gray cloak looked at the former sharply, and said with a sneer, "As far as I know, your son O Wei has been in love with Miss Till for a long time, could it be that you want to disturb this marriage to make your son happy?"
"So what?!" Duke Lanna snorted coldly, because he really wanted to make his son perfect, and his character was so straightforward that he no longer had any cover-ups when he was told the truth. He said coldly: "Our family named Lanna guarded the southern border for several generations. Our ancestors once blood sacrificed millions of elites to suppress the spirit race, and created an immortal will. They are descendants of heroes. Are these two things not worthy of Miss Tire? You must be happy if you have made a foreigner cheaper? I think you have ulterior motives on the contrary!" Speaking of this, a sneer appeared on his face, and he continued: "If I guessed correctly, I'm afraid that this marriage will be yours! The lord of Alka City is the one who benefits the most, Duke Pal?"
"Full of nonsense!" Pal's face suddenly changed, and then he turned his head to look at the king, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I intended to promote the friendship between the two countries, but this person is talking nonsense to ruin my reputation, so I demand a duel with him! Or let me See and see what is the eternal will!"
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar. The group of people planned to watch the two show off each other, but they didn't expect the matter to develop to such an extent that even King Bulls showed a look of surprise on his face. , frowned and said: "The marriage between Tire and Prince Astante was negotiated between me and General Tino, and this matter has been decided and will not be changed. Duke Ruolan doesn't want to guard the Crooked Strait, you can tell me bluntly, from today Since you are the Lord of Titan City, Kerian, the original Lord of Titan City, will take your place and go to the Crook Strait, so there must be no mistakes in starting." Speaking of this, the king glanced around and smiled: "If anyone with Lan The Duke of Na wants to change positions, let’s talk about it today, I will try my best to meet everyone’s requirements.”
Lan Na was startled when he heard the words, and quickly changed his words: "I don't mean that. I am"
However, before Lanna finished speaking, a person walked out of the crowd and said repeatedly: "Your subordinates take orders!" This person was the former owner of Titan City, Kerian, because Titan City was located in the far north. Snowy border, so at this time he still looks very sloppy in the animal skin padded jacket, but no one present will underestimate him, after all, anyone who can become the lord of the city can be regarded as a prince.
It's just that Titan City is much inferior to the Crooked Strait. Not only is it located in a remote and cold climate, but it also has to cross the frightening desert of death, so this arrangement is no different from directly exiling Duke Lanna. But it's just to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys, and the so-called job change is just a nice way of saying it.
Seeing this situation, everyone was in danger, and no one dared to speak out to challenge the king's authority.
"I also object!" Just when the crowd was silent, the old man beside Aowei walked out of the crowd slowly, looked at the king with lingering eyes, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, although I should not interfere in worldly affairs , but Tyr is my student, and she has just turned eighteen and has not yet received a rite of passage, so at least she must wait until she is twenty before she can marry into the orc clan, otherwise I will never let her go!"
Hearing this, everyone turned their gazes to the old man, but the king immediately frowned when he saw the old man, but he couldn't force a smile when he remembered the identity of the old man, and said, "So it's Dean Hogg , I didn’t expect you to actually come.”
Hogg smiled lightly, then looked back at Aowei, and pondered: "Actually, I don't want to come, but my apprentice said that His Majesty has something important to announce today, but I didn't expect it to be such a thing. This really surprised the old man." , because I really can't think of any reason why His Majesty the King, who is always busy with everything, can think of the matter of female love here as so important."
Hearing this, Burs's face turned ashen, but Hogg was not only the dean of Caldari, but also had a detached position in the entire Kealan continent, so even if he was dissatisfied, he could only suppress his anger and said: " Dean Hogg is overthinking, this marriage is not only related to Miss Till's future status, but also determines the future of the human race, as for the coming-of-age ceremony, of course, it must be done in accordance with the regulations."
"That's very good." Hogg nodded in satisfaction, but turned his gaze to Astante who was beside Tyr, and said softly, "But if you entrust the future of the human race to a group of demihumans and a girl, Don't you think this is a little ridiculous, Your Majesty?"
"This..." The king's face turned pale immediately, but Hogg's status was aloof. Behind him stood a strong man that even the gods were afraid of. It was a title used to humiliate the orc race in ancient times, and it was even more intentional to say it from Hogg's mouth at this time.
"It seems that senior has lived in seclusion for many years and didn't know that the status of human beings is no longer what it used to be. Besides, General Tino has already agreed, why do you, an outsider, want to be aggressive?" Astarte looked at Hogg aggressively, even though he knew The identity of the other party, but his words and deeds did not show the slightest fear.
"You're right." Hogg looked at the corner of Astante's mouth with a smile, but his eyes were still very cold, and said in a deep voice: "But your highness may not know it, because Miss Till is the one who joined me. A student of Dari, since the day she joined the academy, she has been protected by the Caldari Academy, so she is still a student of our Caldari before she completes her studies, even if the two are engaged, she cannot go with you Orcs, General Tino must be very clear about it." At the end, Hogg turned his gaze to General Tino who was standing not far away.
But at this time, Tino was in a daze, but when he looked at Tyre, his eyes were inexplicably apologetic, and he said slowly: "Headmaster Hogg is right, my daughter did sign a contract with Caldari. After passing the contract, you cannot leave Caldari Academy before the coming-of-age ceremony, I did not explain this in advance, and please don’t blame the prince.”
"Nonsense!!" The king yelled angrily, pointed at Tino and said sharply, "Why didn't you explain such an important matter clearly!?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me." Tino looked helplessly at the queen and knelt on one knee, and said slowly, "I just remembered that this subordinate is willing to be punished."
"Forget it." The king waved his hand vigorously, and said with a frown: "Today is the day of great joy. Although Miss Till cannot go to the Beast Race with Prince Astarte, she will go to the Beast Race immediately after finishing her studies to get married. It's settled, no changes."
The king's tone was extremely tough. Although on the surface he was angrily reprimanding General Tino, it was actually to prevent Hogg from having room to bargain. Although he knew very well that this was Hogg's plan to delay the attack, once the matter was settled, there would be no more subject to change.
Seeing that the king had made up his mind, Hogg stopped talking. He glanced at Tyre and sighed helplessly, saying, "Ovi, let's go." Walk outside the palace.
(End of this chapter)
On the other side, since Kaiwen left, he ran all the way to the city gate along the street, but immersed in joy, he soon realized a very serious problem, that is how to get to Caldari safely.
Although Caldari has a transcendent status in the human continent, there are not a few people who know it, but from the imperial capital to Caldari, you need to go through a vast jungle, where the danger of monsters entrenched is naturally needless to say, but if you take a detour, you can’t. It was guaranteed to arrive within five days, so at this time he had no choice but to ask others for help.
Thinking of this, Kaiwen looked back and found that the old man and the young man had disappeared into the sea of people. He couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart. He thought he could seize this opportunity, but now he seemed to be in a deadlock again.
But when Kaiwen was frowning, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he fell straight to the ground. He tried his best to support his body with his hands, while blood dripped down the tip of his nose and fell to the ground.
This sudden blow made Kaiwen dizzy. He instinctively looked behind him, only to see two soldiers holding long sticks and looking at him with grim smiles. One of them still had bruises on his face. Qing was the one who was injured by Aowei earlier.
But before Kaiwen came back to his senses, the soldier who was injured earlier swung a long stick around his head and beat him, and Kaiwen's mouth suddenly let out repeated screams.
After seeing this scene, some people walking on the street also cast their gazes here. When the wounded soldier saw this, he pointed the bloody stick at the crowd and shouted, "What are you looking at! Disperse them all!" Already!"
Hearing this, the crowd of onlookers dispersed immediately, and the other soldier couldn't help but sighed softly when he saw this, and frowned: "Just calm down, don't kill anyone, or you won't be able to explain to the superiors."
"So what if you beat him to death? No one cares about a beggar like him." The wounded soldier snorted coldly, and then threw the bloody stick aside, but just as he was about to leave , but saw a faint light emitting from Kaiwen's neck, and then saw the bruises on his body fading little by little.
Such a strange scene couldn't help but startled the soldier, and his eyes fixed on the necklace on Kaiwen's chest for a moment, and he asked in doubt: "What is this?" While speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Kaiwen patterned necklace.
When Kaiwen saw this, he quickly shrunk his body into a ball, no matter how punched and kicked by the opponent, he still held on to the necklace and refused to let go. Seeing this, the soldier stepped on Kaiwen's back angrily and pulled it with his hands. Kaiwen was immediately strangled, his nose and tears flowed down in an instant, and dry voices kept coming out of his mouth, he struggled hard but his consciousness gradually became blurred.
At the same time, a carriage slowly passed by on the street, looking at Kaiwen whose life was hanging by a thread, a girl in the carriage frowned slightly, and whispered: "Will, what's going on outside? "
A knight in armor glanced at the crowd, and then said respectfully, "Miss Hui, it's just a guard teaching a little beggar a lesson. It's not unusual."
"Even so, they are too aggressive." The girl looked at Kai Wen through the car window, her brows were slightly frowned, and she said in a deep voice, "Stop the car and let me get down."
Hearing this, Will suddenly gave a wry smile, and said helplessly, "Miss, we don't need to intervene in such matters, so as not to delay the business."
"But since I saw it, I can't ignore it!" The girl snorted softly, and regardless of Will's obstruction, she pushed open the door of the carriage and jumped down, sternly shouting: "Stop it!"
Hearing this, the two soldiers were stunned, and the injured soldier loosened Kai Wen's necklace reluctantly, and said with a frown, "Who is your Excellency? We are doing routine business, please don't interfere." After the previous experience, the injured soldier was obviously a lot more polite to the girl, and judging by the girl's attire, the other party must be from a wealthy family, but with her appearance, the crowd that had dispersed gradually gathered around .
"Routine business?" The girl sneered suddenly, her beautiful eyes also turned to the embarrassed Kai Wen, and said: "I want to know what he did? It's worth fighting like this."
"He stole something!" The soldier pointed confidently at Kai Wen, who was still coughing, and said, "How could he, a little beggar, have that necklace? So he must have stolen it!"
"I didn't..." Kai Wen choked up and put the necklace back in his arms. While tears were falling, he looked up at the girl.
However, the moment Kaiwen saw the girl, he froze in place, because he had never seen such a beautiful girl before. Those light blue beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with stars and seas, and his long golden hair hung down. On both sides of the shoulders, there is a natural temperament in every gesture. Looking at the girl at this moment, she looks like an angel.
The soldier glared at Kaiwen viciously, but instead slapped him and asked repeatedly: "Then what evidence do you have to prove that you didn't steal this necklace?"
Hearing this, Kaiwen smiled wryly, because he really couldn't prove that the necklace was his own, and the other party's words didn't make any sense at all. While feeling anxious, he wiped away the tears on his face with his hands, and said slowly: "This necklace has been with me since I woke up. Although I don't know it well, I think it must be left by my relatives."
"You're lying!" The soldier pointed at Kai Wen and snorted coldly, then turned his head to the girl and said, "Miss, you have also seen that this necklace is by no means an ordinary item, how could it appear on a little beggar's necklace?" Body? So there must be something wrong with him, please continue your journey and don’t interfere with this matter.”
"I don't think so." The girl glanced at the soldier coldly, then walked to Kaiwen's side, leaned down and said slowly, "Can I see your necklace?"
"En." Kaiwen responded softly, the distance between the two was so close that Kaiwen could even hear the girl's breathing, and then he held up the necklace on his chest for the girl to look carefully Eye.
At the same time, an old man in the crowd also fixed his eyes on the necklace, his expression was astonished as if he had seen something unbelievable.
The girl frowned and pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "This is indeed not an ordinary item, even I have never seen such a thing, but the person who can own this necklace is by no means an ordinary person , how could it be stolen by a beggar? So at least this necklace was definitely not stolen by him. "
Hearing this, the two soldiers were at a loss for words, because the girl's words were not unreasonable, how could someone who could own such a treasure be stolen by a beggar living on the street, and the previous questioning intention was obvious, how could the girl not know what they were thinking.
"Why don't you talk?" The girl sneered when she saw that the two soldiers didn't speak, then she stood up slowly and said, "I see that you are clearly trying to snatch other people's things! What you are doing is no different from robbers." What's the difference?" Speaking of which, she looked back at Will behind her, and said in a deep voice, "Take these two people to meet their captain! Find out whose subordinates they are!"
"Yes!" Will replied respectfully, and then said in a low voice, "But miss, we still have official business, so don't delay the trip because of these trivial matters."
Hearing this, the girl frowned in embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, she said slowly, "In this case, write down their names first, and settle accounts with them after the work is over."
"Yes." Will nodded in response, and turned towards the two soldiers, but seeing that the girl's eyes were not looking this way, he whispered, "Go away now? Do you really want me to Do you remember your names?"
"Thank you, thank you!" After the two soldiers thanked each other a few times, they ran away without looking back.
Seeing the two soldiers running so embarrassingly, the girl couldn't help but burst out laughing, wondering, "What's wrong with them?"
"It's nothing, maybe I was frightened by your aura, miss." Will smiled lightly, and then said seriously: "Miss, we don't have much time, the generals are still waiting for you."
"Understood, just wait for me first." The girl responded casually, then turned her gaze to Kai Wen, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, can you sell me this necklace? I know this necklace is very important to you. It might be important in terms of money, but you're not safe with it, so the price is up to you as long as you're willing."
Hearing this, Kaiwen couldn't help being startled, but she didn't expect the girl to have taken a fancy to his necklace. After a helpless smile, she shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell this necklace, because it is very likely that I found a relative. The only way."
"So that's the case." A look of disappointment flashed in the girl's eyes, but the smile on her face was still sweet, and she said, "If you change your mind, you can go to Caldari to find me at any time." After finishing speaking, she slowly said He stood up and walked towards the carriage.
"Wait!" Seeing that the girl was about to leave, Kai Wen quickly stood up, looked at the girl's back, and said, "What's your name, please, if I can go to Caldari, I will definitely repay you. "
Hearing this, the girl looked back and smiled sweetly, and said her name 'Tyl' so lightly, and then stepped into the carriage.
Kaywen stood there in a daze and watched the carriage go away for a long time, he would be overwhelmed, and Tyre's name was engraved on his heart like a brand, that smile seemed to make him forget the pain on his body.
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared at the end of the street that Kai Wen slowly came back to his senses, and then staggered towards the outside of the city.
At this time, Kaiwen also had mixed feelings in his heart, because what happened today was far more than what he experienced in the past three years, and he couldn't tell whether what happened today was his chance or his sad fate. Added another innocuous memory to the world.
After a long while, Kaiwen left the Royal City of Merun, looking back at the city Kaiwen had lived in for three years, but he didn't have any nostalgia in his heart, on the contrary, he was relieved when he saw no one following him.
Because he wasn't sure if those two soldiers would follow up to take revenge on him. If he was going through the same thing, he might really die here, but no matter what, he escaped death by a narrow margin. If it wasn't for Tyre and The old man who made the move earlier may have died in the city of Merun.
"Young man, what's wrong with you?" Just as Kaiwen turned his head to look inside the imperial capital, a strange voice came from his ear.
Hearing the sound, Kai Wen immediately looked back like a frightened bird, and finally felt relieved when he saw that the other party was just an old man with white beard and hair, and then smiled wryly: "It's nothing, I just encountered some troubles."
"It seems that you have experienced a lot of twists and turns." The old man looked at Kai Wen with a smile, and asked in doubt: "Can I ask you a question? It is this necklace on your chest. I don't know where it came from? "
Hearing this, Kaiwen couldn't help being startled, and instinctively pulled his clothes to cover the necklace, but the clothes on his body were already in tatters, and with the previous beating, the clothes on his body had already turned into several rags.
Seeing Kaiwen's nervous expression, the old man suddenly smiled helplessly, and said slowly: "Don't be afraid, my little friend, I have no malicious intentions, because I am also a refugee, so I just called you out of curiosity when I saw you leaving in such a hurry , I want to ask you if there is any good place to go."
Hearing this, Kaiwen was stunned. He thought he had encountered a villain again, but he didn't expect that the other person was just here to ask for directions, but he had never left the imperial capital for three years, and he knew nothing about the outside world. With a bitter smile, he said, "Actually, I don't have any good places to go. It's just that an old gentleman said that as long as I can arrive in Caldari within five days, he will let me become a student. This is his token for me." Spreading out his hand, there was a piece of transparent and flawless crystal on it.
"Five days?" The old man frowned as he looked at the crystal in Kaiwen's hand, and a complex look flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Little friend is really blessed, but with your current body you want Crossing the entire human territory is not an easy task. Leaving aside the dangers along the way, even high-level knights may not be able to cross the entire human territory on foot within ten days. Besides, the energy crystal in your hand is not protected. Under the circumstances, it can only last for three days, that is to say, the crystal will shatter by itself after three days, presumably the other party made such a promise to you because they knew this."
"How is this possible?" Kaywen looked at the old man in disbelief. He had never thought that Caldari would be so far away, but he only had five days. More importantly, if the crystal in his hand was really like what the old man said Said, then even if he walked to Caldari in five days, it wouldn't make any sense.
Kai Wen couldn't help feeling a little bit bitter in his heart. There was no resentment in his heart for the promise that the old man made to him, but more doubts. Could it be that the other party gave him such a promise because he believed that he could not fulfill it?Or this so-called promise was just a joke, but he foolishly took it seriously.
It was at this very moment that Kaiwen felt that everything he knew had changed, and he sat down on the ground disheartened. He originally thought that he could change his destiny with this opportunity, but now it seemed that he was It's so ridiculous.
Tears slipped down Kaiwen's cheeks unconsciously, and she kept thinking in her heart, do I want to accept my fate?Let's just accept his fate, a feeling of unwillingness sprouted in his heart, he hated this kind of world, and also hated this kind of background.
However, the old man on the side still looked at him with a smile, and said: "Maybe the other party just wants to make you realize the reality through this incident, but if you insist on going to Caldari, you can go with me, because I It just so happened that I was planning to go East to meet an old friend."
Kaiwen, who was sitting on the ground, kept wiping away tears, choked up and said, "But... I have no way to get to Caldari within five days."
"How do you know if you don't try?" The old man smiled lightly and stretched out his hand to pull Kaiwen up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Don't give up hope until the last moment, maybe you can really do it, so time is running out, let's hurry up Let's go."
Hearing that Kaiwen was a little hesitant, but the old man didn't seem to want to be the kind of person who seeks money and murder, besides, he has no better way to follow the old man at the moment. After nodding in agreement, he followed the old man all the way to the distance go.
At the same time, several chariots drove into the city of Merun King. The leading chariot was particularly eye-catching. I saw two huge earth dragons pulling a body that looked like a steel castle. Full of sharp blades, it rumbles when driving, which can be described as amazing.
The person on the chariot is even more eye-catching, but it is better to say that the other party is a beast than a human being. He is wearing heavy armor and is nearly three meters away. His exposed skin is dark green and scarlet. His eyes are as sharp as knives exuding a fierce air, and there are two winding upturned fangs on both sides of his mouth, which looks like a ghost or a demon on earth.
However, people who have really seen the world know that this is not a wild beast or a monster, but the Beamon giant beast of the orc race. This person is also the eldest son of the Beamon king of the orc race. He was promoted to a high-ranking knight when he was just over [-] years old, and he can be regarded as a man of the hour in the entire Kealan continent.
But such a person suddenly appeared in the city of Merun, but the residents of the city of Merun could not help but worry a little. After all, the status of human beings is not as good as before, and the grievances between the two races of humans and beasts have lasted for thousands of years. When they came to the city in person, the people were a little panicked for a while.
However, when the pedestrians on the street were discussing a lot, a group of people appeared on the road leading to the palace. They were busy laying the carpet. After a while, an old man with a king on his head walked towards Astan on the red carpet. The army led by Tesho.
After meeting, the two looked at each other, and a smile gradually appeared on the king's face, and he said slowly, "I welcome you on behalf of the human race, prince of the orc race."
Hearing that Astante also got off the chariot, he gave a deep salute to the king, and said loudly: "It is my honor to come to the nobleman's territory. On behalf of my father, I pay tribute to His Majesty. The friendship between the two clans will last forever." , prosperity!"
"Please!" The king made a gesture of invitation generously, and the minister beside him also took the initiative to give way to the palace.
Seeing this, Astante laughed loudly, and walked with the king to the distant palace.
After seeing this scene, passers-by on the street did not sigh secretly for a while, only to see a young man looking at Atante's back and sighing softly: "As expected of the prince of the orc clan, he has such courage at a young age. Come to think of it, if our human race can form an alliance with them, I see who would dare to look down on our human race!"
After hearing that man's words, an old man beside him shook his head with a sad expression, and sighed softly: "The human race was so powerful back then, but now they can only rely on the power of a group of demihumans." To maintain your own peace, no matter how you look at it, it can only be regarded as lingering."
"That's right, if the ancient emperor is still around, how can this group of subhumans be so rampant?" Hearing this, another old man also sighed helplessly, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
"Ancient Emperor?" The young man raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said with a sneer: "Somedi has long since become the past, and now it has become a tomb, so what if the ancient emperor is still alive? Could it be that with his own strength, he can compete with the ancient emperor?" Compete with the thousands of troops of the Beast Emperor Guard?"
"Shameless!" A look of anger appeared on the old man's face, and he snorted coldly: "The glory of Somedi back then was incomparable even if you look at the Shenting now, let alone a group of subhumans? I suggest you learn more and see more." , don’t forget your own dignity.”
The old man's words immediately aroused heated discussions, because many people knew how glorious Somedi was once. Although the royal city of Merun was resplendent and magnificent, it was only a county guard in the past.
The man was also a little annoyed by the old man's words, and he yelled: "Old man, you are looking for a beating on purpose!" The sound of the road breaking through the sky suddenly sounded, and he staggered and took two steps forward before falling directly to the ground, and even lost a few front teeth in his mouth.
After the man got up, he covered his mouth and looked around but couldn't see who made the move. He was shocked and his face became a little panicked. Then he fled to the distance without thinking, and his distressed appearance immediately attracted people around him. A burst of laughter from people.
However, while the crowd was discussing, the two figures quietly passed through the crowd and walked straight towards the palace, as if they didn't want to attract others' attention.
"Master, I think that guy must be hating the person who just shot." Aowei couldn't help chuckling after seeing the man's embarrassed appearance.
"Hate?" The old man raised his eyebrows lightly, glanced at Aowei from the corner of his eye, then continued to walk forward, and said coldly: "He should be grateful, if I didn't stop him, I'm afraid that It would be easy for Mr. to kill him."
After hearing the old man's words, Aowei froze and froze on the spot. He didn't expect that it was his master who just made the move, and it was still in such an unconscious situation, but he was surprised At the same time, he was also secretly grateful for his decision to become a teacher.
Looking back at Aowei's adoring face, the old man shook his head lightly. If it wasn't for his family background, he would never have accepted Aowei as his disciple.
"Let's go quickly, the imperial capital should be very lively today." The old man turned his head and greeted, then quickened his pace and walked towards the palace first, and Aowei followed closely after hearing the words.
And the two of them can be said to be unimpeded along the way, because Aowei wears the badge of Caldari on his chest, and he is also a nobleman belonging to the son of the Duke.
However, not long after the two entered the palace, they saw a young girl in a long white dress walking slowly through the crowd to the king.
The girl's beautiful silhouette was as breathless as an angel's. Her long golden hair hung down her shoulders, and her two slightly wrinkled eyebrows showed a trace of stubbornness in her heart.
It's just that beside such a moving flower, there is a Beamon standing nearly three meters tall, which looks a bit nondescript no matter how you look at it.
"Tyr!? Why is she here?" Aowei looked at the girl in amazement, because Tier and him are both Caldari students, and his grades are among the best in Caldari and his aptitude is very good.
But as to why she was dressed like this and why she appeared here, Aowei couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, and then turned his attention to his father who was chatting with someone not far away.
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the palace, and everyone seemed to be curious about why Tyre appeared on such an occasion, and in such a way.
But when everyone was puzzled, the king waved his hand lightly to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly: "Today the prince of the orcs, Astante, established an alliance with our clan on behalf of the orcs! From today onwards, the orcs are my The alliance of the clan!" Speaking of this, there was an uproar in the audience, but the king continued indifferently: "In order to show the friendly relationship between the two clans, I hereby marry Miss Till, the adopted daughter of General Tino, to the beast clan. Prince Astante! May the friendship between the two races last forever! The covenant is immortal!"
The king's words immediately aroused heated discussions, and everyone looked at Tyre with regretful eyes.At this moment, the old man and Aowei were equally astonished. They thought that the king had summoned them for something important, but they didn't expect to see the scene before them.
I saw the old man frowning deeply, and his eyes were looking at a middle-aged man not far away. I saw that man was wearing a pair of silver-white armor, and there was also a hint of helplessness in his expression And this person is also the focus of everyone's attention, because he is Tire's adoptive father, General Tino.
"I object!" An angry voice resounded from the crowd, and the bustling imperial palace suddenly became silent, and then a luxuriously dressed man walked out of the crowd, with a handsome face and a dignified appearance, standing in front of the tiger's mouth on his right hand. With a bear paw imprint on it, which is their family crest, he looked coldly at Astante beside Tire, and said in a deep voice: "I have been guarding the frontier for many years, and I have dealt with countless orcs. , They invaded our territory and killed the people, and now they let Miss Tier marry the prince of the orc clan, aren't they afraid of being ridiculed?"
As soon as this remark was made, many people echoed it, but a look of displeasure appeared on the king's face, but before he could speak, another man in a gray cloak walked out of the crowd.
"If you don't want to guard the frontier and tell His Majesty, what's the point of threatening His Majesty with these words? Duke Lanna?" The man in the gray cloak looked at the former sharply, and said with a sneer, "As far as I know, your son O Wei has been in love with Miss Till for a long time, could it be that you want to disturb this marriage to make your son happy?"
"So what?!" Duke Lanna snorted coldly, because he really wanted to make his son perfect, and his character was so straightforward that he no longer had any cover-ups when he was told the truth. He said coldly: "Our family named Lanna guarded the southern border for several generations. Our ancestors once blood sacrificed millions of elites to suppress the spirit race, and created an immortal will. They are descendants of heroes. Are these two things not worthy of Miss Tire? You must be happy if you have made a foreigner cheaper? I think you have ulterior motives on the contrary!" Speaking of this, a sneer appeared on his face, and he continued: "If I guessed correctly, I'm afraid that this marriage will be yours! The lord of Alka City is the one who benefits the most, Duke Pal?"
"Full of nonsense!" Pal's face suddenly changed, and then he turned his head to look at the king, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I intended to promote the friendship between the two countries, but this person is talking nonsense to ruin my reputation, so I demand a duel with him! Or let me See and see what is the eternal will!"
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar. The group of people planned to watch the two show off each other, but they didn't expect the matter to develop to such an extent that even King Bulls showed a look of surprise on his face. , frowned and said: "The marriage between Tire and Prince Astante was negotiated between me and General Tino, and this matter has been decided and will not be changed. Duke Ruolan doesn't want to guard the Crooked Strait, you can tell me bluntly, from today Since you are the Lord of Titan City, Kerian, the original Lord of Titan City, will take your place and go to the Crook Strait, so there must be no mistakes in starting." Speaking of this, the king glanced around and smiled: "If anyone with Lan The Duke of Na wants to change positions, let’s talk about it today, I will try my best to meet everyone’s requirements.”
Lan Na was startled when he heard the words, and quickly changed his words: "I don't mean that. I am"
However, before Lanna finished speaking, a person walked out of the crowd and said repeatedly: "Your subordinates take orders!" This person was the former owner of Titan City, Kerian, because Titan City was located in the far north. Snowy border, so at this time he still looks very sloppy in the animal skin padded jacket, but no one present will underestimate him, after all, anyone who can become the lord of the city can be regarded as a prince.
It's just that Titan City is much inferior to the Crooked Strait. Not only is it located in a remote and cold climate, but it also has to cross the frightening desert of death, so this arrangement is no different from directly exiling Duke Lanna. But it's just to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys, and the so-called job change is just a nice way of saying it.
Seeing this situation, everyone was in danger, and no one dared to speak out to challenge the king's authority.
"I also object!" Just when the crowd was silent, the old man beside Aowei walked out of the crowd slowly, looked at the king with lingering eyes, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, although I should not interfere in worldly affairs , but Tyr is my student, and she has just turned eighteen and has not yet received a rite of passage, so at least she must wait until she is twenty before she can marry into the orc clan, otherwise I will never let her go!"
Hearing this, everyone turned their gazes to the old man, but the king immediately frowned when he saw the old man, but he couldn't force a smile when he remembered the identity of the old man, and said, "So it's Dean Hogg , I didn’t expect you to actually come.”
Hogg smiled lightly, then looked back at Aowei, and pondered: "Actually, I don't want to come, but my apprentice said that His Majesty has something important to announce today, but I didn't expect it to be such a thing. This really surprised the old man." , because I really can't think of any reason why His Majesty the King, who is always busy with everything, can think of the matter of female love here as so important."
Hearing this, Burs's face turned ashen, but Hogg was not only the dean of Caldari, but also had a detached position in the entire Kealan continent, so even if he was dissatisfied, he could only suppress his anger and said: " Dean Hogg is overthinking, this marriage is not only related to Miss Till's future status, but also determines the future of the human race, as for the coming-of-age ceremony, of course, it must be done in accordance with the regulations."
"That's very good." Hogg nodded in satisfaction, but turned his gaze to Astante who was beside Tyr, and said softly, "But if you entrust the future of the human race to a group of demihumans and a girl, Don't you think this is a little ridiculous, Your Majesty?"
"This..." The king's face turned pale immediately, but Hogg's status was aloof. Behind him stood a strong man that even the gods were afraid of. It was a title used to humiliate the orc race in ancient times, and it was even more intentional to say it from Hogg's mouth at this time.
"It seems that senior has lived in seclusion for many years and didn't know that the status of human beings is no longer what it used to be. Besides, General Tino has already agreed, why do you, an outsider, want to be aggressive?" Astarte looked at Hogg aggressively, even though he knew The identity of the other party, but his words and deeds did not show the slightest fear.
"You're right." Hogg looked at the corner of Astante's mouth with a smile, but his eyes were still very cold, and said in a deep voice: "But your highness may not know it, because Miss Till is the one who joined me. A student of Dari, since the day she joined the academy, she has been protected by the Caldari Academy, so she is still a student of our Caldari before she completes her studies, even if the two are engaged, she cannot go with you Orcs, General Tino must be very clear about it." At the end, Hogg turned his gaze to General Tino who was standing not far away.
But at this time, Tino was in a daze, but when he looked at Tyre, his eyes were inexplicably apologetic, and he said slowly: "Headmaster Hogg is right, my daughter did sign a contract with Caldari. After passing the contract, you cannot leave Caldari Academy before the coming-of-age ceremony, I did not explain this in advance, and please don’t blame the prince.”
"Nonsense!!" The king yelled angrily, pointed at Tino and said sharply, "Why didn't you explain such an important matter clearly!?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me." Tino looked helplessly at the queen and knelt on one knee, and said slowly, "I just remembered that this subordinate is willing to be punished."
"Forget it." The king waved his hand vigorously, and said with a frown: "Today is the day of great joy. Although Miss Till cannot go to the Beast Race with Prince Astarte, she will go to the Beast Race immediately after finishing her studies to get married. It's settled, no changes."
The king's tone was extremely tough. Although on the surface he was angrily reprimanding General Tino, it was actually to prevent Hogg from having room to bargain. Although he knew very well that this was Hogg's plan to delay the attack, once the matter was settled, there would be no more subject to change.
Seeing that the king had made up his mind, Hogg stopped talking. He glanced at Tyre and sighed helplessly, saying, "Ovi, let's go." Walk outside the palace.
