Chapter 257, The Lost Lake God Witch
After taking a pleasant bath in various senses, Ryan changed into the baron's standard clothes. He picked up the limp dark elf and sent him back to his bedroom. After thinking for a while, he decided to go to the three Look for Morgiana in the prayer room upstairs.
The Witch of the Lake God is the religious leader of this country and the first spokesperson of the Fairy of the Lake in the mortal world. Although she is very weak now, she still has a strong control over the Order of the Holy Maiden and the Knights of the Holy Grail.
The castle was filled with the taste of being carefully repaired. Ryan noticed that in addition to his own guards, there were also a dozen guard knights from Suria's family stationed there. Seeing Ryan appearing, they all bowed to show their respect. This is not only a respect for the Holy Grail Knight, But at the same time, it is also a respect for the future husband-in-law of the lady.
In addition, many young ranger knights looked at Ryan with eager anticipation and enthusiasm for the Holy Grail. Perhaps they thought that getting close to Ryan was close to the Holy Grail.
Walking outside the door of the prayer room on the third floor, the white walls and wooden door made Ryan hesitate, but he still knocked on the door: "His Royal Highness Mogiana? I am Ryan."
"Ryan? You're back? Please come in." Morgiana's cold voice sounded in the room.
Open the door of the room, the furnishings in the room are very simple, a simple round table, a soft bed made of cherry blossom wood, a few wardrobes, a few chairs and some simple books, constitute the whole life of Morgiana, according to Suria Well, the Lake God Witch rarely leaves the castle, most of the time she spends most of her time recuperating in her room, occasionally she walks around the castle, and there will be at least eight holy grail knights to protect her.
Ryan felt that Morgiana's brows were a little stagnant. After seeing Ryan, the situation eased. Today's Lake God Witch is wearing a champagne sleeveless dress, and her delicate ivory skin exudes a faint light. , Her blue eyes looked at Ryan, and after seeing that he didn't seem to be injured, Morgiana stretched out her hand: "Ryan, you're back, you've done a good job, you once again defended the kingdom, and ended All the atrocities committed by the Red Duke over the centuries."
"This was not done by me alone. If it wasn't for everyone's concerted efforts to sneak into Mu Xilong and finally learn where the vampire's siege camp is, this war may continue." Ryan helped Morgiana After getting up, the Lake God Witch leaned on him naturally, and Ryan helped her sit down behind the round table, and then pulled a chair with a back to sit beside her.
Morgiana's eyes moved with the man's movements, and there was a touch of warmth in her expression, and her mood seemed to be much better. In this way, under the warm afternoon sun, Ryan slowly told the story. She told Morgiana carefully, and the witch of the lake listened quietly.
"Huh~" The wind blew through the window, and Ryan spent about half an hour explaining what happened in detail.
Sneaking into Musillon in disguise, defrauding information with the summer special, avoiding Matthew Bard's detection, dealing with old Deckard, going out of the city to get to the siege camp, Veronica summoning meteors, and then killing the Blood Red Duke, leaving After the break, he fought hard with Manfred and finally escaped.
Ryan's eloquence is good, he explained his experience very clearly, stopped the whole process, Morgiana just nodded and smiled faintly, she conveyed the approval from the fairy in the lake, and praised Ryan's performance, but the whole story After listening, the Lake God Witch didn't have much joy on her face, only sighed.
"What's the matter? My Highness?" Ryan keenly sensed that Morgiana was not in a good mood, so he asked proactively.
Morgiana stretched out her hand towards Ryan, motioning for Ryan to hug her.
So Ryan gently held Morgiana's little hand, picked her up and put her on his lap: "My Highness?"
"You shouldn't have taken such a big risk." Morgana leaned on Ryan, and she said quietly: "This war shouldn't have been like this, it didn't need to be like this, it should have been my unification of the dukes Army, quickly wipe out the vampire army, but..."
the rest of the words,
Morgiana didn't say much.
As the first choice of the fairy in the lake, she is the spokesperson of the mortal world. She was plotted against because of carelessness. Now she is seriously injured and is like a disabled person. Life needs people to serve. Ryan, Boderick, Francois and others led the army to fight against vampires, but Morgiana could only get a few words of news from the messenger, which made the always proud and strict with herself. How can the God Witch accept it?
A pair of jade feet in white stockings were exposed under the long skirt. The thin stockings wrapped Mogiana's delicate insteps, and her small ankles were crystal clear like jade, swinging gently under the long skirt, with crystal slippers with a little heel Landing on the ground, Morgiana laughed at herself: "Look, Ryan, I can't even move my legs now. I've been resting for more than a month, and I'm still in this state."
The Witch of the Lake God raised her head, and two lines of tears were drawn on her face: "Ryan, look, am I useless? You are fighting for the ladies on the front line, but I am hiding in your castle, and I need to be specially transferred to A troop of Grail Knights protects me."
Seeing this, Ryan smiled wryly. He was at a loss, hesitated for a while, and could only comfort him softly: "My lord, you just need to rest for a while, and you will be able to recover at most three to five years. During this period of time, you can take a good rest. What's the matter?" Leave it to me, and I will help you."
Morgana raised her head suddenly, she first gave Ryan a hard look, then leaned her face on Ryan's chest and sighed: "Yeah, fortunately, I still have you, if it weren't for you, I would definitely Transformed into a vampire, the blood sacrifice was given to Nagash, right? In that case, it would be a disaster for this country."
Ryan didn't say anything. He understood how Morgiana felt. The Lake Goddess Witch sat on Ryan's body, and the two remained silent, maintaining a calm atmosphere.
Almost five minutes later, Morgiana finally cheered up gradually, and the haze on her face gradually faded.
Yes, as she said, fortunately, she still has someone to rely on, this is a brand new experience for the always proud and cold witch of the lake, but she doesn't feel bad, on the contrary, there is a negotiable People, it's nice to have someone to talk to.
"Okay, I should go, my lord, take a good rest." However, the good time is always very short, and within a few minutes, Ryan said that he should leave: "If you have any needs, you can talk to me directly. You can find Olika and ask her to tell me."
"Are you leaving in such a hurry?" Morgiana's tone was very strange, revealing an indescribable strange smell: "Am I just so uncomfortable?"
"Uh..." Ryan had to sit still, he stroked Morgiana's back and her long golden hair: "My lord, you are a little too sensitive, I just returned to the territory, and many things need to be done." I handle it."
The Lake God Witch also realized her gaffe, she muttered to herself: "I'm not in the right mood recently, sorry, Ryan."
"It's okay, I said, I understand you."
"Thank you, I feel much better with you here." Morgiana leaned on Ryan's chest and continued, "Uh... are you free tomorrow afternoon? My mood swings recently may be because the poison has not been cured yet." ...Can you purify me again?"
"..."
After he came out of the prayer room on the third floor, Suria had been waiting for him for a long time, and the female knight asked curiously, "Why is it so long? Does Her Highness Morgiana have any new instructions?"
"I reported all the details of the war to His Royal Highness Morgiana." Ryan said helplessly: "She is not very emotional."
"Ah, this." Surya nodded understandingly, "Ryan, Her Majesty Morgiana is very disappointed in herself."
"Yes, I can understand." Ryan expressed his understanding, and he sat opposite Suria.
"No, Ryan, you only understand part of it." Suria shook her head again and again, with a slight smile on her face, and said serious things in her mouth: "Her Highness Mogiana must be very disappointed, I can't To personally participate in such an important war."
Ryan frowned slightly, and he motioned for Surya to continue.
"The authority of the Lake God Witch in Britannia is unparalleled. She has great rights and can always ignore the law. About four hundred years ago, that generation of Lake God Witch Marianne once had a relationship with the king. 'Young' Louise's court wizard duel, it only took a minute to turn the wizard into a frog, and the reason was only that she suspected that the court wizard could use black magic." Suria continued: "And as you know Yes, twenty-seven years ago, Her Royal Highness Morgiana led the Holy Grail Knights all the way into the palace of Corona, pulled the 'cruel' John II from the throne, and announced that he would be deposed."
"Yes, I know all of this." Ryan nodded. In this country, the witch of the lake god has more power than the king, which is well known.
"Therefore, every Highness of the Lake God and Witch has extremely high demands on herself. Not only does she have the ability to change the destiny of this country, but she must also undertake the heavy responsibility of protecting the country. She has the greatest ability and the greatest responsibility. Therefore, in front of others, Mogiana Your Highness is always arrogant and cold, and moody, and no one knows what she is thinking." Su Liya continued to explain to Ryan: "She has extremely high demands on herself, because as long as she relaxes, the kingdom may slide into the abyss .”
Arrogant and cold? moody? Ryan frowned now, is this Morgiana? Why is it different from my impression?
But Suria's explanation made him fully understand why Morgiana was in such a bad mood.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. It is the duty of the Lake God Witch to protect the kingdom. She never escapes and faces it bravely, but Morgiana is now seriously injured because of the plot of the vampire. She led people to sneak into Mu Xilong and escaped death, but she could only watch from the sidelines.
What torture and pain was this for the proud Morgiana?
Like the Emperor, sitting helpless on his golden throne, watching his empire crumble and being helpless.
"I understand." Ryan fully understood. He had not been in the Kingdom of Knights for a long time. Obviously, his understanding of the Lake God and Witch was far less profound than that of Suria.
Seeing that he understood, the female knight's sea-blue eyes flickered for a moment, and then disappeared. She smiled again: "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll arrange for the chef to do it."
"I want to eat tonight..."
…………
Five days later, Britannia, Kingdom of Korona, inside the Throne Hall.
The old Knight King Richard was reviewing official documents.
In the north of the kingdom, the northern barbarian looters from the northern wasteland are constantly harassing the coastline of the kingdom. In the south of the kingdom, in order to regain his territory, the Duke of Berleon fought with Count Tobalo of Estalia. Another contest.
On the coastline to the west of the kingdom, the dark elf pirates have been relatively quiet recently, which finally made Richard heave a sigh of relief, but when he saw the gray mountains in the east of the kingdom, his previously relaxed brows were furrowed again.
The Duke of Connet in Brittania owns a disputed territory hundreds of kilometers long between the Duchess of Marienburg. This territory is called the "Courona Road", and the historical ownership It has always been vague, because Brittany was once part of the empire, and before Charlemagne established the empire, there were a dozen tribes who migrated from the current territory of the empire to this side of the Gray Mountains to form Brittany. The sub-human race, after the establishment of the empire, more people migrated from the Gray Mountains to live, and the blood of the two peoples was mixed together, and they had long been indistinguishable from each other.
So for this territory, both the Empire and Britannia have legal claims. At present, Roland Marshall, the Bretanian knight general, also known as Marshal Roland (Marshall means Marshal) is leading three hundred Several knights and thousands of troops worked hard to build castles and villages in this uninhabited swamp and forest land, trying to take this large piece of land as their own, and the empire was not to be outdone. Lanz sent his capable general, Curt Helberg, who also led the imperial army to build castles and build villages here, forming a confrontation between the two sides.
At the southern end of the Gray Mountains, the border friction between Casvann, the Duke of Palavon, and the Reikland of the Empire has become more and more intense. The fairy prayed that Casvann would better be sensible and stop causing trouble.
Next, it was the turn of the report on the battle of Turis Castle. The report was sent by Boderick, Duke of Boldro. In the report, Boderick said proudly and angrily that Boldro had relied on his own The power repulsed the vampire army, and the king's support is no longer needed. At the same time, the report also pointed out that Baron Jean, the lady's God's Choice Champion, and the Holy Grail Knight Captain Ryan completely ended the Blood Red Duke and brought him to the Knight Kingdom. The vampire lord who suffered for years was completely wiped out.
"It's... Ryan again?" Richard frowned, and he said to an attendant beside him, "The Scarlet Duke has been completely wiped out, Armand, it seems that I'm going to lose you."
"Yes, I once swore a poisonous oath to the lady. I will serve any knight who can kill the Scarlet Duke." A knight attendant with long black hair who looked about thirty years old said.
He is Armand de Aquitaine, the king's standard bearer, and the last bloodline of Fredemond, the first Duke of Aquitaine.
"Forget it, forget it, everyone in the kingdom applauded and clapped their hands for Ryan's elimination of the Blood Red Duke. Now that the kingdom is surrounded by enemies, since he, Ryan Malcador, has accomplished such a feat, then... let him be named an earl! "Richard shook his head helplessly. The king really didn't like Ryan very much, but he still clearly distinguished the primary and secondary conflicts. From the perspective of maintaining stability and motivating people, he should indeed express something.
"Then, which earl title would be better for him?" Richard moved his hand on the map, and finally set his eyes on the interior of the Sharon Forest, where there used to be an earl title, but it was abandoned later.
"I remember the ancient place name of this place... called Glamorgan?"
