Evetrona's old stories

An old woman in a long black dress walked up to Eve and the others and led them away from the hall—this is the Nadraola that Hollien mentioned.

When the three saw Mrs. Hyde, the other party was sitting in a large room on the first floor of the castle. It was arranged to look like a large living room, with beds, sofas, coffee tables, dining tables and bookshelves placed in it, and it looked full.To Eve's surprise, Mrs. Hyde was not the only one in the room at this time, but also an acquaintance: Golta—the librarian was also here.Golta was sitting at the desk, holding a pen in his hand, and was writing something on the paper.

Seeing these young people visiting, Mrs. Hyde couldn't help being overjoyed.She stood up from the sofa, as if she wanted to go forward to greet her, but Nadraorola moved faster. She rushed to Madam and helped her back to the sofa without any explanation.

The three of them took a few quick steps, walked up to the old man, and bowed to her together. Asder and Gorgon performed the half-kneeling etiquette that knights face their protectors, while Eve bowed in another way. Body ceremony—that's what Rodek had taught her.

As expected, Mrs. Hyde has been watching Eve.This old man is not tall, and the years are constantly shrinking her size, but she is still elegant no matter what, she has experienced the collapse of the Knight Kingdom and the turmoil of the Knight Academy today, Everything in this world seems to be more surprising to her.

"Nazhuorola, look at her body—" the old man smiled and said to the servant beside him, "It reminds me of when I first got married."

"Yo, you still remember things so early." Nadraorola pretended to be surprised, and her response seemed a little careless.

"Why don't you remember, I also liked this kind of dress back then, how beautiful...Nazhuorola, you forgot, I wanted to make you a dress at that time..."

"Okay. Don't talk about this, talk about what their young people like to hear."

"Look, she still won't let me talk." Mrs. Hyde laughed. She took Eve's hand and asked her to sit next to her, then called Asd to let him sit on the other side, and arrived at Gorgon—Gorgon waved his hand quickly and said, "Old lady, I can just do here. I'm not like them—I'm not young anymore."

After Gorgon finished speaking, he sat down opposite them.

"This guy." Madam Hyde pointed at Gorgon, and asked Nadraorola who was standing behind her, "Elans' child?"

"Yes, it's Yi Lansi's child, named Gorgon."

"The temper is like that, and his mother was also like that when she was a child." Mrs. Hyde commented with a smile.

Gorgon grinned at her with a sense of boldness unique to grassland people.

After talking about Gorgon, Mrs. Hyde's attention turned to Eve again.

"Look at this outfit, whose idea is it?" The old man's eyes were full of love, and she said to Nadraorola: "Look, this is our mistress after going to Dragon Castle."

"Don't be joking," Nadraola replied, "I guess it was Rodek's idea."

"I think it's her too, and she looks pretty good." Mrs. Hyde held Eve's hand, "However, her small body can't support it now, and the female knight's patrol outfit is more suitable."

"You're right, I think so too." Nadraorola echoed.

"Asder, what do you think?" Mrs. Hyde asked the young man sitting on the other side of her.

"I think so too. The female knight outfit is more in line with her temperament." Asde replied.

"Well, but you'd certainly prefer to see her in it," said Mrs. Hyde. "Am I right, Gorgon?"

"Yes, absolutely." Gorgon nodded again and again, he touched the tip of his nose with a slightly embarrassed expression.He understood that Mrs. Hyde was reminding him-don't always stare at one person.

"I know Asde. It's the first time I've met Eve and Gorgon. If you don't dislike me as an old lady, come and sit with me when you have time." Mrs. Hyde said, "The two from the inner door As long as they have met someone once, they will definitely remember it. If you come to play next time, you don’t need to tell them anything, they will let you in.”

At some point in time, Golta, who was sitting at the desk, also put down the pen in his hand, turned around and listened to their conversation.

"Oh, that's right," Mrs. Hyde said to Glorta, "I forgot, we were writing letters just now. Look at me, I'm wasting your time again, like every time."

"Madam, you don't need to worry about it." Golta said, "Time is not always useful."

"In any case, let's finish the letter first," said Mrs. Hyde.

While they were talking, Nadraorola went from behind the sofa to the front, and walked straight out of the house.

"Hey, Nadraola, where are you going?" Mrs. Hyde asked her quickly.

"I'm going to get some drinks for these children." Nadraola said, "You can't let these children sit around while writing letters."

"Yes, yes, go, go, go back."

Mrs. Hyde and Nadraola are not like a pair of master and servant, they are more like an old couple.In the last stage of their lives, they lived here quietly, living quietly.Mrs. Hyde thinks that she is the backbone of Nazhuorola, but Nazhuorola thinks that if she is gone, it will be difficult for the wife to take care of herself.

The letter was written to a lord of Mokoto. Before Asder and the three of them came to visit, Gorocta had already drafted the draft and was reading it to Mrs. Hyde at this time. The content of the letter involved some business dealings in northern Mokoto.

"Come and listen, learn, and see how Golta makes written negotiations." Mrs. Hyde didn't shy away from this, but she wanted them to listen carefully.

In the letter, Mrs. Hyde referred to the lord as "Sir Penderson".Sir Penderson has several merchant fleets, operating from the southern part of Yudi to the Danfeng Kingdoms in the northern part of Qiyang on the Eastern Continent, and the southern islands of Tianyizhou.

Sidorirov Pan Desen is not only a lord and businessman, he is also a soldier and a relative of the emperor.Sir Penderson's business was able to grow so big because he owned several warships of large tonnage. With the escort of these ships, the caravan could better deal with pirates and sea monsters when sailing in the open sea.The two countries of Mokoto and Kiran are now known as the "Two Brothers of Modesa", and those warships owned by Penderson were part of the ancestral property that Mokoto shared when the two brothers separated from Mayedisa.After these warships were decommissioned, Penderson and his sons bought the right to use them and carried out drastic repairs, focusing on improving their performance for deep-sea voyages.

When Penderson was young, he studied swordsmanship under Grand Duke Hyde, and Mrs. Hyde took good care of him at that time.Penderson was close to fifty when he inherited the title, but he still remembered the kindness of Grand Duke Hyde and thought of Mrs. Hyde, so he gave Mrs. Hyde two merchant ships in his caravan, one named Hackson and the other was the Ecomona—the ship was named after the couple.These two merchant ships are still mixed in Penderson's huge sea caravan. Penderson is fully responsible for the operation, and most of the profits are assigned to Mrs. Hyde's personal name.

In the early years, Mrs. Hyde never really accepted this great gift from Sir Penderson. Every time Sir Penderson sent money, it would always return to him in another way—at that time, Mrs. Hyde never He never thought that the large sum of money that Penderson bestowed on himself every year would play a crucial role in later life.

Since the death of Grand Duke Hyde, the Saint Fengyue Knights have always been shrouded in the shadow of Logos Academy, like fish on a chopping board, allowed to be ravaged and torn by them, and talents and resources have been increasingly divided and lost by them.Therefore, the money that Sir Penderson gave to Mrs. Hyde became the few capital she had at that time that could fight against the Kriging officialdom—this is indeed a sad thing—only with this money can she keep her husband’s honor and the dignity she should have as the Lord of Bronxburg.

[132] Under the fame (Part [-])

During the process of reading the manuscript by Golta, Mrs. Hyde was also explaining the relevant background to the three of them.She annotated Golta's sentences, and sometimes asked Golta to delete parts of the letter.From these words, Eve also roughly understood Mrs. Hyde's intention in writing this letter: she hoped that Sir Penderson would reorganize her two ships to the high-sea fleet to Qiyangzhou, in order to take a high-risk Long-term investment in exchange for greater monetary returns.

In fact, the letter Golta is reading at this moment is Mrs. Hyde's second reply.In his last letter, Sir Penderson politely rejected Mrs. Hyde's request. In his letter, he explained the reasons in detail - including the selection and appointment of the new captain, the increased initial investment due to the overhaul of the ship and the consumption of crew salaries, the application and replacement of the ship's insurance policy and port entry permit, etc. These are all obstacles.Not only that, but whether the two ships are qualified for long-distance voyages also requires a certain amount of time to conduct an overall assessment.

Mrs. Hyde actually knew this very well, but she still didn't give up her mind - she wanted to fight for it anyway, so there was the first and this reply.

"Now that I've lived, I'm worth a little bit of face." Mrs. Hyde said mockingly, "I also know that it's immoral to throw this kind of problem to him, but there's nothing I can do about it." She sighed, " If Sidorirov thinks I'm stupid, then I'll admit it. People only live this life, and when I die... I'll take this infamy with me to the grave—my reputation is worth it Nothing. This is the same as a bad debt, the person who pays the money is gone, what can they do to me?"

"Sir Penderson is a wise man, he will never blame you." Glorta said.

"Yeah, he's smart, he's kind, he's a good guy...but just because he's a nice guy, you feel bad when you owe money to someone like that."

When talking about this, the door of the house was opened, and Nadraola came in with a tray.She didn't know who the people in the room were talking about, but she still took Mrs. Hyde's words: "Yes, he is a good man, but you are also a good man, and a good man will be rewarded."

After hearing her nonsense, everyone in the room laughed.

"Nazhuorola, Nazhuorola..." the madam said the servant's name, "my friend is still the same as when she was young, always so cute and kind when she speaks."

"Come on, you." Nadraorola took out the cups and saucers from the plate and distributed them to the four young people sitting around the coffee table.

"What are you pouring, it's really delicious," Mrs. Hyde asked her.

"It's the coffee beans brought back by Sylphine from the south." Nadraorola poured coffee for everyone and explained to his wife, "Syphine said that today's young people don't want to drink tea, they all like to drink coffee .”

"Is that so... Is it for me?" Madam asked the servant beside her, with a cautious tone in her tone.

"You can't drink, be careful and you won't be able to sleep at night." Nadraola refused her very decisively.

"Hey..." Mrs. Hyde sighed.

"Forget it, I'll pour you some to taste." Seeing Madam's pitiful appearance, Nadraorola changed her mind again and raised her hand to give her a cup.

Seeing that everyone raised their cups, Eve also sipped the coffee.The coffee must be good coffee, but Nadraola added too much sugar, and it tasted a little too sweet.She observed the expressions of the people around her, but she didn't see anything unusual, so she drank most of the coffee in the cup herself.

"What do you think?" Nadraola asked Madam.

"It's too sweet, sweet and sour." Madam pushed back the cup and saucer to Nadraorola, frowning and shaking her head, "I'm getting old, I'm not used to drinking."

"Is it sour?" Nadraorola took her cup and poured herself a cup.She stood beside Madam and drank it on her own. After drinking, she sighed again: "As expected of you, your tongue is still alive, and you can taste such a little sour taste."

Eve laughed dumbfounded.From their conversation at this time, it is not difficult to imagine what they looked like when they were young.If there is such a companion by his side all the time, no matter how hard life is, there will probably be sweetness hidden in it.

They had another conversation.At about ten o'clock, Nadraorola noticed that his wife was sleepy, so she decisively drove them all out - including Golta.

"When I'm free in the future, I'll come and take a look, especially you, Eve." Nadraola said.In the corridor, Eve stared innocently at the tall and thin old servant in front of her.Nadraorola explained: "I can see that Madam likes you very much."

Like yourself very much?Not necessarily.Eve thought.She didn't say much today, and the one who talked the most was the pair of master and servant, followed by Golta and Aster.If it is said that they are close, Mrs. Hyde and Asder seem to be closer, but if she wants to say that she chooses one of herself, Asder, and Gorgon to accompany the wife, then it is obviously more suitable for her—she guessed that Nadraola probably meant that.

After saying goodbye to Nadraorola, Asder took Eve and Gorgon to the meeting hall on the fourth floor.There were more than a dozen people sitting in the meeting room, and when they entered the door, these people were all looking at them.This sense of oppression caused by being watched caused a brief blank in Eve's consciousness.She was guided by Ast to sit on the seat near the door, and she felt more at ease in her heart - as for what happened before she sat down, she had no memory at all.

When Asder introduced the identities of the strange faces in the room to her, she just nodded blankly, but actually didn't remember many names.

Lotilan was also sitting there.This morning, when Eve saw Luo Tilan, she was really surprised.On the carriage, she tried to mention to Lotilan that she was about to "abandon the race", but the other party interrupted her with a smile.

"I know that when we met at the manor last year, I didn't explain some things clearly." He said, "But don't worry, we will discuss these matters later-you will go to see your wife soon, Don't be affected by this kind of thing."

As a result, Eve's expectations fell through again—she still hasn't made a decision on this matter.However, she was not discouraged, after all, this was expected.

"I still remember one time, Hepned half-jokingly said to me: In our Knights, there is no right wing at all, and there are only neutral, left, and extreme left." In the meeting hall, an elderly A rather tall man was sitting by the window, the light outside the window cast a half-black silhouette on his body, his voice was extremely majestic.This person's name is Shilin Ou Ruowang, and he is the oldest of the only four holy knights in the Knight Order today.He continued: "Although we have different positions, it is only because of our different ways and angles of looking at the problem. After all, we are all for Shengfengyue, and Shengfengyue is our home."

Eve secretly looked around, and only then did she realize that the people sitting in the conference hall seemed to be members of the Knights, and those members of the Vengeance Society and the Prosecution Office had long since disappeared.

"Grand Duke Hyde once said to me—he doesn't dislike the struggle and competition within the Knights, because today's Knights need such vitality." He paused for a moment, and then said: "But the struggle is not internal friction, not selfishness. We are fighting for our family and family, and it is definitely not for our own self-interest, to take things from our brothers and sisters into our own hands.

The hall was very quiet, everyone was watching him intently and listening to him.

"According to Grand Duke Hyde's wishes, today we have elected three young people here, who will conduct a fair competition on our behalf in the next few years. They are young and wise, powerful but humble, pious and Loyal, brave and compassionate... They are our fighters, our blades, our agents; in the future, they will also be our beacons, our flags, our guides and rulers Or... It is true that they are still growing and need to experience and practice, and as their fathers, we are their role models-everyone, at this moment, in the name of Grand Duke Hyde, I make a request to you, and I also ask you- —Please be sure to teach them everything they need without reservation, and do everything you can—to make them the heroic figures we want and what Shengfengyue needs.”

Shi Lin's words are undoubtedly contagious, but after hearing his words, Eve didn't feel as excited as Asder, and she didn't act indifferent like Gorgon. She just felt confused now, feeling like is dreaming.

"Three young people, please stand in front and come here." Shi Lin turned his gaze to them.Eve stood up together with Asder and Gorgon, and walked to the round table in the center of the hall.

"Asdd Horid Nacreon—son of 'Lion's Mane' Fankin Nacreon, recommended by Her Excellency Hollyn Lügemunck; Eve Lodent Harvein—daughter of 'Commander' Lord Harvein, recommended by Her Excellency Fonne Silau; Gorgon-Hileven Hyde—grandson of Grand Duke Hyde's father and brother, Salamo Hyde, recommended by His Excellency Helein Naban."

With a wave of Shi Lin's hand, three identical contracts were placed in front of them.Eve picked up the copy in front of her. Rows of thick and powerful words appeared on the soft white vellum, and each line of Krigin words corresponded to the ancient Franto language.There seems to be a strange feeling in holding this contract in your hand.Eve opened her eyes wide, trying to understand the words printed on the precious paper, but she couldn't convert these symbols into meanings she could understand—she was extremely confused, as if there was a huge vortex in front of her eyes, Slowly drag her into it.

Sheng Fengyue...Zheng Yu Rongguang...inheritance...guidance—what exactly is this talking about?

Beside him, Asder finished reading the contract, and Eve followed Asder's movements and mechanically put the contract back on the table, aligning it with the other two.

The golden ink pads were placed in front of them, and Asder took the lead in demonstrating, printing the fingerprints of his right thumb on the three contracts, followed by Gorgon.Their expressions were solemn but peaceful, as if they were doing something unimportant.

The feeling of bewilderment and epiphany crossed in her mind.Mochi Dakren, Anfa Wigotto, Siheliu Polangwan, Lord Harvein, Lotilan Umber...these names and surnames, as well as their status and positions—all of these faintly reminded her of where she is now.

These people - these people who are closely related to themselves, what do they expect?Eve vaguely understood, but didn't dare to believe it.

She took a step forward, and the ink pad was placed in front of her.Sweeping his eyes to the side, Lotilan was watching her, his old and British face was full of seriousness, without any emotional tendency.She turned her gaze back and noticed Shi Lin, who was sitting across the table, was also looking at herself.The elder paladin nodded slowly towards her, with a benevolent smile in his eyes.

Eve sighed silently in her heart. She stretched out her hand, tapped the cold and slippery ink pad with her thumb, and pressed her finger print on the contract.Her fingerprint was very small, almost a full circle smaller than the other two.

Aster handed her a wet towel and asked her to wipe off the remaining ink pads on her hands.Shi Lin raised the scepter, and white smoke slowly released from the place where the fingerprint was pressed. After a while, a total of nine burnt fingerprints with clear lines were left on the three contracts.

After returning to her seat, Eve felt a little restless.She didn't know if the decision she made now was correct—or, in other words, there was actually only one choice from the beginning to the end.

Can Mochi be trusted?What about Lotilan?If I can be lucky enough to win this competition and become the next owner of Benlong Castle, then it is probably not a good thing—thinking about it from the worst angle, maybe I will be coerced and caught in the logic. Between Siyuan and Shengfengyue, they played the role of middleman and mediator, handling the most embarrassing affairs, and then being regarded as traitors by both sides.

"Eve, there is something I need to tell you, of course - Asder and Gorgon should also listen to it." Shi Lin suddenly called her name, which interrupted her thinking.The old man said: "I can see that you are not completely relaxed now, because to you, I am afraid that what Mount Shengfeng looks like is still unclear. Your father Lord Lord Harvey is my friend and one of us-I think this way: you are his child, and that is my child. You are our descendants, sisters of Asder and Gorgon. We have an obligation to protect you, teach you, and respect your wishes-and you are the same You can trust us, accept us, and ask us for what you need with peace of mind... This is the promise of the elders to the younger generation, and it is also your self-evident right as a descendant of Shengfeng Yue."

After hearing what Shi Lin said, Eve felt a little more at ease. "I see, thank you," she responded.Regardless of how much moisture there is in Shi Lin's words, at least he is much more frank than Luo Tilan.If Luo Tilan could have said clearly in front of her earlier: "I will never harm you." Eve probably wouldn't be in such a bad mood now.

[133] Under the fame (the tenth)

Shilin Ou Ruowang said a lot after that, he was speaking to the three young people, and he was also reminding everyone sitting here.When Shi Lin spoke, his eyes were fixed on Eve, and he was giving her a kind of loving warmth with his eyes.

"In the past, Sheng Fengyue—we, our ancestors and fathers, once bathed in the teachings of metaphors, fought hard to kill the enemy on the battlefield. But now, the times are changing our cognition, not only the young A generation, and even we ourselves are slowly cooling down—enthusiasm, faith, glory... If these golden qualities can no longer inspire our younger generations to go to the battlefield and fight hard, then I can't help but ask: What do they need now? What? What caused the change in their attitude?

"In the past, the land of the Knights was barren. Our ancestors, they faced more obstacles than us - but they were still able to eliminate difficulties, enemies, and Embaita Mountain; they were united and willing to give, That's why there is today's Benlong Castle. At that time, they didn't do these things for fame and fortune—they did it for a better life and for their descendants not to suffer.

"At that time they had no choice, but now, it is not our fault that we are entangled in fame and fortune. Funded by the Logos Institute, we have better equipment, better treatment, and generous rewards. This is not a bad thing in itself, but——we forget our original intentions and gradually become corrupt. Young people join the knight order for fame and fortune, and go to the battlefield with unrealistic fantasies. They are as timid as mice, and have never felt a sense of belonging. If one day, the Logos Institute cuts off their livelihood, they will scatter like birds and beasts. On the other hand, our elderly comrades-in-arms, who were used to poverty in the early years, Now there is such an extra amount of money every year, but they don’t know how to use it. Money can’t improve their lives, but instead increases their bad habits—look at them now—eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, everything, it’s a shame. , If you don't spend all the money in your hand, it will seem like you have suffered a big loss.

"Because of such a sugar-coated shell, what we can do is actually limited. Mrs. Hyde has been using her assets to subsidize the Knights, do her part in the care of the casualties, and honor those who are truly brave. As early as 30 years ago, she expanded the civilian area and resettled the families of those who died in battle. To a certain extent, this can indeed boost morale, so that those who do their best can no longer worry about it, but in the long run, it still seems powerless and a drop in the bucket.

"But we can't ask for more—after all, Mrs. Hyde is old. Since the death of Grand Duke Hyde, she has dedicated the rest to Shengfeng Yue and tried her best. In short, in this Dragon Castle, she is me. One of the most admired people.

"In the eyes of outsiders, Shengfeng Mountain, Benlong Castle, and Knight Academy today undoubtedly present a thriving scene, as if the future is limitless; but only we know that Shengfeng Mountain has already been riddled with holes, decayed and decayed. Our 'ally', the Logos Academy under the spire—they were planning on us many years ago. They intended to eat us, digest us, and finally take possession of us.

"Dragon Knight, Holy Knight, and Curse Knight—the three indispensable pillars of Shengfengyue, they respectively represent the three nobles that Shengfengyue knights abide by: bravery, enthusiasm, and perseverance.

"However, all of this has become history—most of you may have never felt how daunting the Fort Benlong was when there were Dragon Knights—the hateful Sedaurons! These pirates, Krigin's minions—as early as a century ago, the Sedaurons burned the Valley of Hope and buried our most loyal partners at the bottom of the valley. claws.

"When Shengfengyue became part of Kriging, and when the Logos Academy intervened in the internal affairs of the Knights, the first measure they took against us was to reform the rank system—more than 50 years ago, there must have been 54 holy knights in the temple of Shengfengyue. They were the sharpest blades in the Knights. They only wanted to cut off the heads of those who gave orders. Hollyn, Feng En, and Helein, you must also bear this in mind, because you were also among them at that time. Siyuan said to us: "the number of paladins can only be ten", we were angry about this, but we could only compromise; later they said: "the number of four is appropriate" - at that time, we had no power to fight and could only let it go. Up to now, paladins, as the symbol of holy Fengyue, have long since been broken, and it is difficult to recast them.

"And our Knights of the Curse, these ruthless and obscure scholars, who voluntarily joined the Logos Academy-they feel that it is not a shame to betray their brothers for knowledge and truth. , they thought it admirable—Oh, truth! Oh, freedom! The Logos Institute accepted them, changed their green robes for white robes, built them a research institute, and called them 'Doctors'. Clan'. They transformed themselves and became our superiors on the battlefield.

"I don't know how everyone sitting here thinks about this, but what I want to say is that the Logos Institute is fully aware of our weaknesses and pain points. Perhaps, the most intelligent people in the whole feather land are concentrated there. If I call them enemies, maybe you don't fully agree with them, but it is undeniable that they are the object of our struggle. As the saying goes, 'corpses don't feel sorry for themselves', but in our——in Shengfeng Mountain Before we really die, we need to be responsible for the honor of our generation. Throughout history, the last emperors are not necessarily faint kings, on the contrary, most of them are very sober, and even have great achievements, but only because of the unstoppable situation - born in a precarious situation We are at such a juncture that Shengfeng Mountain will perish one day, which is undeniable.

"Perhaps in the near future, we will all become lonely ghosts—Mount Shengfeng is no longer the home of knight souls, and Benlong Castle may become a playground, and this symbol of honor will also be regarded as a fancy costume, which becomes a complete pastime. Before that, we still have a chance to redeem—only this time, to redeem our dwindling dignity—to swallow our anger, be willing to decline, and live a stable life; or to fight and do our best to become a narrative written by romantic poets Shi Shi... I think, everyone has their own answers in their hearts."

After the show, Eve walked behind the crowd with Ast just as she had come.Shi Lin had been talking endlessly for so long, and it was already afternoon.She glanced ahead, seeing that the Lotilans had disappeared, so she decided to find a chance to leave the team and return to the apartment to rest.

"Eve, do you...do you have time this afternoon?" Aside asked her suddenly.

"What's the matter?" She smiled at him reluctantly.

"Gorgon said that he wanted to invite us to sit with him." Asd explained, "On the surface, although the three of us are competitors, we are actually partners on the same front. If possible, I think We can improve our understanding."

Eve looked at Gorgon, who nodded at her.

"Indeed, I should. I have time." Eve immediately agreed, "When shall we go, now?"

"It can be now. I'll go find a carriage, and you wait for me here first." After finishing speaking, Ast ran away.

After Asder left, Gorgon seemed a little embarrassed.From time to time he moved his shoulders and scratched his cheek.The two of them stood in the shade of the trees outside the inner city wall, their expressions were a little stiff - today is sunny and the weather is a bit hot.

"What do you think of what Shi Lin said just now?" After a period of silence, Gorgon finally spoke first.

"I haven't figured it out yet." Eve replied, "About the Knights, I actually don't know much." ——If she hadn't been to the north before, she might be at a loss now.

"Oh, same as me."

"Do you think..." There was a question lingering in Eve's mind. After hesitating for a while, she finally asked, "Knights and Krigin... will they really fight in the future?"
