Chapter 216, Korona's Holiday
The Holy Grail Cathedral in early April is full of vitality.
Ryan was finally able to walk on the ground after a period of recuperation. Although he was still a little weak, he looked like a normal person on the surface.
"Really? Suria won the championship of the knight meeting? I really want to congratulate her." François, Duke of Wenford, came to visit Ryan today. The Duke himself was very proud. He kept touching his mustache, Bring this good news to Ryan who is recuperating.
A son and a daughter have become the winners of the knight's conference. Francois has no reason to be proud, and the Holy Grail Knight is also a human being.
"That's really congratulations. It's a pity that I wasn't there to watch it." Ryan said regretfully. The female knight didn't come to visit him for a while, and he could understand it, because Suria must be attending the knight meeting. .
"Hehehe, it's okay, Ryan, it's important for you to recover from your injury." Francois laughed loudly, and the Duke himself noticed Morgiana who was sitting beside him without saying a word, so he said in a respectful tone: "Thank you Her Highness Morgiana presents the award to Suria, which is an honor that belongs to Suria."
"This is my duty." Morgiana's complexion was not good, and the Lake God Witch responded lightly.
François sensed that Morgiana seemed to be in a bad mood, and the Duke murmured in his heart, because just two days ago, when the Witch of the Lake God presented awards and crowns to her daughter, she didn't seem to be in a good mood, so she just left A program, followed by a few words of routine encouragement.
The character and temper of the Lake God Witch has always been unpredictable, Francois thought to himself that his daughter should not offend Her Highness Morgiana, right? So the Duke changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Ryan, today is still the day of the Holy Grail. There are many activities on the streets of Corona. If you have no problem, would you like to call Lauren and go out together?"
The Day of the Holy Grail is an official holiday in Brittania. This day commemorates the meeting between King Arthur, the founding knight, and the fairy lake in Carcassonne. Arthur drank the Holy Grail from the gift of the fairy lake in Carcassonne. Water, become the first Grail Knight.
This is the beginning of the great history of Brittania. After Arthur passed away due to illness, his eldest son Lewis made the two days when Arthur prayed by the Fairy Lake and the next day when the Fairy came to the lake as legal holidays. , to commemorate his father's great cause.
By the way, Lewis, the second king of knights, was widely questioned before he succeeded to the throne, because he had not yet been approved by the fairy of the lake to become a knight of the Holy Grail, so he chose to give up the position of king of knights, ride a horse, and bring a long sword , left the capital alone, and struggled for the approval of the fairy in the lake.
This is where the mission knight, or expedition knight, comes in.
A few years later, after advancing to the sanctuary level, the tattered Lewis returned to the capital. His eyes were red, his body exuded a sacred aura, and the golden holy grail was painted on the flag. No one questioned his identity, so he took office smoothly. The King of Knights, and sat on the throne for more than two hundred years before passing away.
After listening to Francois' invitation, Ryan was a little moved. He had been in the Holy Grail Cathedral for more than ten days, and it was really boring. If it wasn't for Emilia who talked with him during the day and took care of him, Moji Anna discussed some kingdom matters with him at night, and he really felt like he was getting rusty.
"My lord," Ryan said, Mogiana replied coldly: "You can go if you want, don't ask me."
"Uh, what I mean is that with His Excellency the Duke around, safety should not be a problem, but I must ask you what you mean." Ryan was still polite enough to ask for Mogiana's opinion.
"Go, today is the ladies' day, don't rush to come back." Morgiana stared at Ryan and said something that both Ryan and Francois heard in a strange tone, and then the witch of the lake turned and walked inward. Walking into the room, she obviously has other things to do.
Ryan, who had been pardoned, finally came out of the Holy Grail Cathedral with Francois.
On the day of the Holy Grail, there are lights and festoons. On the prosperous streets of Korona, a large number of nobles and citizens are shopping and playing. The shops on both sides are filled with all kinds of fine wines. The streets are extremely lively. They can also stop their work and enjoy the hard-won holidays with the nobles.
On this day, the knight lords will try their best to let the serfs enjoy the carnival. They will open their wine cellars and move out the low-quality, expired, or sour wine for the serfs to enjoy. In order to make the lady notice her generosity.
Francois observed Ryan's state and found that he was not standing still, so he was relieved and said to Ryan: "It is enough to be able to do this, even if I am the Great Demon Nurgle. You are sure of winning, but you did it.”
"If it weren't for the siege of the Holy Grail knights and the help of the elector Boris, I might have a hard time defeating the great demon of Nurgle." Ryan recalled the tragic battle and sighed softly: "Even so , I also paid a painful price, and when I think about it now, there was only a thin line between life and death."
"The Great Chaos Demon is so powerful, it has been weakened by the attacks of the Holy Grail Knight and His Excellency the White Wolf Elector, and the wind of magic is very weak. Its strength is limited, but it still suppresses it with its own strength. We are fighting with a group of legendary holy grail knights, and now it seems that I still have a long way to go." Ryan continued, but he had no intention of discussing this topic with the Duke, so he immediately added: "By the way, Suria How did you win the championship at the Cavaliers Conference, can you tell me?"
"Suria? Her opponent in the final is Matthew Bard from Connecticut, a strange young man, but very strong." Francois nodded, and continued to talk about the process of the knight meeting: "The first two rounds ended with Surya's failure. Matthew Bud's lance was very accurate and very fast, and he was able to attack Suria before she attacked every time."
After saying this, Francois said with some pride: "But in the third game, Suria managed to avoid Matthew Bard's lance, and she used the three-stage thrust that Julius taught her. , successfully shot down Matthew Bud's Hualing, and won the victory in one fell swoop."
Ryan nodded as he recalled the rules of the Cavaliers Conference.
The knights' meeting is a jousting on horseback. The two knights are fully armed, and they charge towards each other along the prescribed road with their horses. They use wooden spears to attack each other. If they attack the opponent's body, it is considered victory. If they attack the opponent's head It is considered a foul and a failure.
The competition is divided into three rounds and two wins, and the player with the most points in the end will be the champion of the Cavaliers Conference.
However, even if the same knight wins the first two rounds, the third round will still proceed as usual, because there is a special rule in the jousting immediately: Hua Ling shoots down.
The feathers are the feathers attached to the knight's kite helmet. Immediately, the spear competition stipulates that if a knight can use his lance to hit the feather on the opponent's kite helmet without touching the opponent's head, then this contest is due to the feather. Shoot down for instant victory.
According to the Duke himself, when Suria used this move suddenly at the end, Matthew Bard did not expect that the female knight in front of him, who was only 20 years old, would have such advanced knight combat skills. Hualing was shot down, and Su Leah successfully completed the reversal.
The female knight who succeeded in the reversal immediately wanted to visit Ryan with the trophy, but was rejected by Morgiana on the spot. The Lake God Witch said that Ryan needed to rest.
"I hope that more people will come to see me, otherwise I will always feel abandoned by the world." Ryan said helplessly.
The Duke himself walked through a street with Ryan. The appearance of the Holy Grail Knight detonated the carnival on the street. The citizens sang loudly the glory and prestige of the Holy Grail Knight. They offered sweet wine to their beloved Holy Grail Knights. Children Singing songs around François and Ryan, the citizens applauded and responded, and the bards created moving songs on the spot. The beautiful sustenance and wishes of mankind were displayed in front of everyone at this moment.
The most popular is the showy Ryan. Many unmarried girls will approach him and hand him their jewelry, handicrafts and flowers. This unmarried Holy Grail Knight is the hottest new star in the kingdom recently. He Every move can attract the screams and cheers of countless people, just like a god descending from the world.
It took a lot of effort to slip out of the crowd. Francois saw Ryan's embarrassed look, and said with a half smile: "My Baron, you are really welcomed by the young ladies!"
"I can only thank the lady for her mercy." Ryan said playfully: "My Duke, weren't you when you were young?"
"Hahaha" Francois laughed loudly, and he slapped Ryan's arm. The Duke's movement looked big, but he didn't use much strength: "In order to get you out, you have to My father personally came forward, Ryan, your face is really great!"
"???" Ryan's head was full of question marks, and he hadn't figured it out yet.
"Go, it's just ahead." Francois patted Ryan on the shoulder, pointed to a small road in the city, and then the Duke disappeared without looking back.
Ryan vaguely understood something, he raised his head, walked towards the path, and walked up the ramp.
Spring has really come, and this hillside has been planted with an extremely luxuriant sea of flowers. With the hard work of the gardeners, the flowers bloom vigorously. The bright sun shines on the earth, and the fresh air blows over Ryan in the breeze. face.
Iris is the national flower of Britannia. In addition, there are lilies and many other flowers blooming on this hillside. Ryan always has a feeling of being far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, fighting against chaos and beastmen , the battle with the green skins seems to have become a thing of the past, the champion of God's Choice strolls in the sea of flowers, enjoying his own leisure time during the holiday.
Passing through the lush sea of flowers, under a tall windmill, a beautiful noble lady stood in the sea of flowers. At that moment, Ryan felt that the flowers all over the mountains and plains were overshadowed, and in his eyes only Without her, there is nothing else to be seen.
She also noticed Ryan's appearance, she opened her mouth first, and shouted in disbelief: "Ryan? You can act now?"
"It's a pity I couldn't witness it." Ryan felt himself being hugged before he could say anything.
After hesitating for a moment, Ryan also embraced the warm and fragrant nephrite, feeling her fullness and softness: "It's okay."
Under the blue sky, in front of the huge windmill, in the lush sea of flowers, the two embraced each other tightly.
Everything in the world seems to have disappeared, and the only thing left is the sound of the moving spring breeze blowing across the earth and the fragrance of flowers.
