Whispers of the Gods

Chapter 47 Guntar II (2)

"I'm fine, Master Allowin," Guntar stood still with Uncle Beldan's support, "Thank you very much for your rescue that day."

"You seem to be recovering well, very well." Arrowin walked to the bedside, "I said straight to the point, young man, I came here to give you a job."

"A job?" Guntar asked curiously.

"It's more like a contract, Guntar Kavalek." Allowin said with a smile, "You just came to Madkalin, so you may not know much about the things in the city.

Although I am the Chancellor of the Hastza Empire and manage the treasury of the Empire, I also have some private business under my own staff.

The sea trade in the north of the empire is basically taken over by the Holy Palacis Empire and the Republic of Drax, but the more profitable route is to the south.

However, the pirates of the Freedom Alliance blocked the exit of the Rift Sea. Without a powerful fleet escort, they would not be able to reach the Lost Land and the Black Moon Land. "

"I've heard that both the Lost Land and the Black Moon Land are extremely dangerous places," Guntar said.

"The more dangerous the place, the more rewards it will bring." Arrowin said with some pride, "Every place has its own rules, child. As long as you abide by their rules, and maintain them at all times." Be careful, and nothing will happen."

Guntar nodded half-understood.

A Luowen continued: "There are always people with ulterior motives who say that I make money by doing business with the Palacis Empire, but my merchant fleet only uses the road to pass through Starfall City and Starfall Strait.

I've hired two warship escorts from the Kingdom of Mussol, and I'm currently recruiting people to serve as escorts on my merchant ship. "

"But I don't know anything about sea navigation, Lord Allowin." Guntar replied shyly.

"Then I hope you are a speed learner, young man." Arrowin glanced at Beldan and said in a low voice: "As far as I know, Gozolon Clotar has no intention of letting you go."

Uncle Beldan frowned, and asked with some concern: "So Madkalin is not safe anymore?"

"Unfortunately, yes." Allowin replied, "Eight thousand royal guards, all wearing golden armor and white tassels on their heads, they can be regarded as Gozolon Clotar's own army.

Many of Gozolon's officers were his companions when he was a mercenary abroad. Their loyalty does not belong to the emperor, but only to the captain of the guard and Jin Zi. "

"A mercenary will always be a mercenary," said Guntar, "but that's exactly what you want me to do. I'm a knight, not a mercenary, Lord Arlovin."

Arowin sighed: "I admire your noble spirit, young man, but this matter is about your life. You have drawn your sword to the imperial guards, and they will not just let you go."

"I protected the weak, I defended the honor of the Amber Knight," Guntar said.

"You think you've done it, but you haven't." Allowin said, looking down at him, "You let Gozoron Klotar beat you.

You lose, and you lose an eye.The weak people you protected, that is, those civilians, were finally captured by the guards. God knows what will happen to them.

As for the reputation of the Amber Knight, let me just say it straight. Now, all the three or four-year-old children in Madkalin know that there is an Amber Knight who was beaten by the guards and threw away his armor and cried for his father and mother. "

"I……"

"Don't think about using your title of knight to quibble, young man." Arrowin insisted, "No matter what you say, you have already lost.

Maybe that's a good thing, because if you killed the Captain of the Royal Guard, your body is now hanging in the square. "

"It's not fair!" Guntar said.

"Fairness is a fabricated statement to make people feel comfortable with the status quo." Arrowin's tone was disdainful. "Fairness is something you have won, not something given by others. But now, you have lost."

"You can go back to Black Peak Castle, Commander Lord Redger will protect you, and I can write to him personally." Uncle Beldan reminded him.

"No, I won't go back to Black Peak Castle." Guntar shook his head, "I came to Madkalin City for a new life and to create glory, even if I lost an eye, it doesn't matter Change."

He used to think that if he walked out of Black Peak Castle, there would be countless possibilities in life.But he was wrong. If he wanted to move forward, there was only one way for him to go.

"I'm offering you a way out, young man." Arrowin warned him, "Perhaps with your heart, you might disdain being a hedge knight, but you have to remember that not everyone can get the first prize." Second chance."

This time he lost, completely.Only the strong can protect the weak, and they are not strong enough.

He looked up at Arlovin and said firmly, "I accept your contract, Lord Arlovin."

He will leave here to explore the world beyond, Guntar thought.As long as he is alive, honor will be found somewhere.As long as he's alive, he'll have a chance to re-challenge Gozoron Cro'tar.

"I will take good care of Bai Xue." Uncle reassured him.

"The ship will leave in three days." Arrowin nodded with satisfaction, "Take good care of your injuries these few days and don't go out. It's not safe in the imperial city recently."

"Have they caught the murderer of the Pantheon of the Stars?" Uncle Beldan asked Alowin.

"No," Allowin denied. "This matter is probably more serious than we imagined, Master Beldan. Not long ago, the people captured by Master Hagen were rescued, and our clues were cut off again.

Gosfried Master decided that this was a crime committed by the people of the Holy Palacis Empire. He clamored to make the apostates pay the price, and even called an emergency cabinet meeting before His Majesty Vigrich returned. , Simple-minded people really don't think about it. "

"We can't anger the Holy Palacis Empire, we can't afford to go to war with them." Uncle Beldan advised Allowin Sfrench.

"I know. Don't worry, Master Beldan, except that High Priest Bechar may support Gosfried, the rest of the cabinet will not approve of any drastic response." Arrowin said.

"But that place is heavily guarded, how can the prisoners in it escape?" asked Uncle Berdan.

"This is where things are strange. Although the place chosen by Master Hagen is a bit remote, there are more than a dozen people guarding it. All four of the guards on shift died, and the others didn't hear anything." Arrowwin Reply.

"I hope that His Majesty the Emperor and his family can return safely." Uncle wished.

　Thank you very much for your support and encouragement, I will continue to work hard!
