Real Name God

Joan Borgia, who has calmed down, is more suitable for negotiation and more difficult.

Richard hesitated.

Negotiations naturally require skill. Now he is the master and the other party is the servant. Naturally, he owns the initiative. The relationship between the two is even more difficult to separate. He can be said to have the advantage.

However, the question is how to make better use of this relationship.

Therefore, Richard has been patiently answering the other party's questions, and at the same time asking the other party's hidden secrets, trying to grasp the knight's character and pursuit.

What he needs is an obedient assistant and a trustworthy subordinate who can give his fragile life to him when necessary; compared with that, the relationship between the two is obviously still far away.

Because the effect of the oath is two-way, the relationship between Richard and Qiong An is like a wise king and a loyal knight. Although they are inseparable from each other, they need to maintain trust and loyalty from time to time. However, these two are one of the things that need long-term cultivation in the world——

In other words, he can really make the other party obey his orders, but if the relationship is cold or even hostile, it is inevitable that there will be a violation of the Yin and Yang; and if Joan Borgia cannot be his right-hand man with all his heart, then An unexpected situation is likely to happen...

Even if there are two legends and the kingly match of "Witcher x Knight", Richard still cannot guarantee the victory. In the ensuing civil war in the magic tower, he needs the female knight to make efforts.

How can it be done? The two belonged to different camps in the past. If they were placed in video games, their reputation would probably be at the "indifferent" stage. Moreover, Richard compares his heart to heart, and feels that it is hard to climb to this position, but Qiong An, who has his dreams taken away by a stranger, may just want to kill himself and be quick.

His eyes fell on the oath itself.

In general, the specific content of the lion oath is the same as the various non-mandatory treaties that the world has to abide by after the so-called "knight swears allegiance to the lord". In this era, it is unified and summarized as "the eight virtues of knights":

Humility (hulity), honesty (hoy), mercy (), bravery (valor), justice (justice), sacrifice (), spirituality

However, such a heavy moral burden, even in a group based on an elite selection mechanism like the Knights Templar, only a part of the loyal and pious personnel will strictly abide by it; while the Knights' Oath is irresistible and compulsory.

For example, the knight must not lie to the lord, this is the so-called "integrity"; and the knight must abide by the lord’s orders, and cannot choose to retreat because of the difficulty of the task. This is "heroic". In addition, such as without permission Not to disclose the Lord’s secrets to outsiders is counted in the virtue of "humility", and when necessary, if it is necessary to save the life of the Lord, the knight even needs to sacrifice his life, which is a "sacrifice"——

The requirements of the "Eight Virtues" are almost harsh, but none of the oaths are fulfilled; in this way, the effect of the knight's oath is actually very strong and overbearing. If the lord is incompetent, it may be fatal. It is hard to imagine how the lion king back then persuaded a bunch of arrogant and legendary Beyonders to sign this unequal jump with him.

But on the other hand, it also has requirements for the lord: the person who is loyal cannot abandon the knight under normal circumstances, cannot transfer the oath to others, and must respect the personality of the knight-which is summarized in the "soul" virtue-and If there is a strong conflict between the lord’s order and the knight’s inner moral code, the oath gives the knight the right to refuse.

"It is not a coincidence that the two are exactly the same, so the design of this vow is based on the'eight virtues'?...No, it's not right."

Richard realized that the logical relationship may be just the opposite.

In fact, "knight culture", including "knight virtue", has only become popular in the last few hundred years, and it has been carried out almost at the same time as the implementation of the cultural promotion and enlightenment policy of the Holy See in its rule.

In fact, in the past history, the term "knight" was only used to refer to the extraordinary who were different from wizards and focused on training. It's just that in the territory of the Holy League, the profession of knights, as a symbol of force between the Holy See and the secular aristocracy, gradually took on the color of symbolizing honor and nobility.

Religious ethics and morals have been internalized as part of the virtues of knights in the evolution of history; in other words, the "eight virtues" promoted by the Holy See in the Holy League are likely to refer to the content of the lion oath. Made.

After all, as mentioned before, the content of the lion oath is not a secret to the ruling class and the Holy See of the three countries of the covenant.

......

"Mr. Rasputin, I am now your knight, and even the biggest secret has been said. Now...at least let me see your face, right?"

When Richard was thinking about how to properly handle the relationship between master and servant, Joan Borgia suddenly smiled and spoke.

While she was talking, a strange color was blooming in those dark pupils; the female knight stared at the black-robed wizard in front of her, not knowing what she was thinking about.

Richard hesitated for a while before he made a decision. He covered his mask with his hand.

"it is good."

He readily agreed.

There was only one person in the world under the new "Rasputin" mask. There was only one Villette in the past, and now there will be a second one.

Under the piercing gaze of the female knight, Richard took off the mask, revealing a face that was so young as a legendary wizard.

For some reason, Richard always felt that she was very nervous during this process... Is she expecting something, or is she afraid of something?

He shook his head, not paying too much attention.

After all, according to the content of the oath, she could not hurt herself, nor could she reveal the secret; on the other hand, Richard doesn't care about identity anymore.

As a result, ~www.readwn.com~, what Richard did not expect was that when he showed his appearance, Qiong An only opened his eyes, and then immediately lowered his head as if to cover up something.

He was attracted by the opponent’s strange reaction, and saw the female knight’s shoulders shrugging, seeming to be holding back a smile; but soon, she looked like she could not bear it, and began to pat her thigh. Laugh happily.

Joan Borgia’s laughter contained joy and enthusiasm that he could not understand.

"what are you laughing at?"

Richard frowned.

"I......"

Qiong An coughed twice and finally calmed down.

She wiped away the tears that overflowed from the corner of her eyes, the female knight still showed an uncontrollable smile, and answered Richard's question with a hoarse voice.

"I said, you shouldn't be Rasputin Novich at all, right? My dear Lord Lord——"
