Chapter 869 Section 100. Holy Grail Knight Squire, Annan
Lesio Valley, Valley City.
The councillors gathered in front of the portal to welcome their heroes - Holy Grail Knight Dela Torre and the King of the North, Annan.
The former supported them until the autumn harvest was completed, and the latter brought key news and support. Without them, the Kingdom of Dimon would have lost half of its territory.
"I will report to the king and give you a generous reward!" The old councillor was so happy that he couldn't even see the age spots on his forehead.
De La Torre looked down on it, but Annan asked with interest: "What reward? Treasure or money?"
"The kingdom is in financial austerity now... I'm afraid we can only reward something honorary."
"World title?"
"Only the Supreme Thirteenth King is qualified to reward..."
With neither treasure nor title, Annan's interest immediately waned: "Speaking of which, where is your king?"
"The king and ministers have all gone to Fas Tundra... Not only them, but most of the kingdom's power has gone to Fas Tundra. More than half of these grains were sent there. If it weren't for your timely news, we really don't know what to do..." The old senator expressed his gratitude.
"You have thanked me many times."
"No matter how much you thank me, it's not enough!" The old senator said seriously, "And your companion, she is really a righteous lady."
"Justice?"
Annan thought if you knew that the person you were praising was a killer of the Shadow Brotherhood, would you still be able to laugh?
As a result, the old councillor already knew: "I am going to issue her a penance order to erase all her guilt--"
This was obviously for Annan's sake. Annan echoed: "Don't be prejudiced by your status. Some people are in darkness, but their hearts are in the light."
Yingge was touched by Annan's words, and looked at Annan with purple eyes.
"Yes... Before, a councillor suggested to me to release those vicious prisoners in the dungeon to resist the ratmen, and I have been hesitating."
"Why not try to give it to her?" Annan looked at Yingge.
"Her?" The old councillor then looked at Yingge.
"I ran from the Huiyue Mountains because of her one line of words... I think you should give her some trust."
"Okay, just as you said."
The old councillor decided to give Annan another face.
"I'll give you a chance... continue to be entangled by the darkness, or have a bright future, the choice is yours." Annan and Yingge, who had achieved their goal, blinked, and then turned back: "Mr. De La Torre, take me to see the two Holy Grail Knights."
"Why don't you let the Holy Grail Knights come to the City Hall? We are preparing to hold a celebration banquet for the frontline warriors." The old councilor took the initiative to invite.
De La Torre had no objection, and Annan had no objection either, because he had just sold a favor to him.
That night, Annan led Ilimoyas to the celebration banquet at the City Hall, and the old councilor introduced his offspring to Annan - interestingly, the old councilor's son was obviously older than Annan, but he put his position below.
The old councilor's idea was simple: he was old, but Annan was young... Whether the Dimon Kingdom existed or perished in the future, the young king would eventually grow up. At that time, Annan only needed to extend a hand appropriately to help their family.
Then, De La Torre led Annan to see the 23rd-ranked Holy Grail Knight: his name was Naven, a sturdy man with a full beard and bright silver armor covered with knife and axe marks.
"Only one?"
"There is no third Holy Grail Knight nearby, but you have been recognized by Mel in advance."
It seems that De La Torre is not rigid.
"I have heard of your deeds. If it is true, I welcome it." Naven said bluntly.
De La Torre and Naven took Annan to a public living room prepared by the old senator, let Annan stand in the open space, and the two of them each occupied two corners of the triangle - the other corner was left for Mel.
"We say one sentence each time." De La Torre told Annan not to be nervous, and then he and Naven knelt on one knee and said in unison: "The goddess of the lake will witness our salvation."
"The goddess of the lake will witness our salvation."
"We will be loyal to justice and mercy."
"We will be loyal to justice and mercy."
"No alcoholism, no promiscuity, no indiscriminate killing."
"No..." Annan suddenly hesitated.
"Didn't you smell the alcohol on Naven?" De La Torre suddenly whispered.
Annan suddenly realized and followed: "No alcoholism, no promiscuity, no indiscriminate killing."
"We will face difficulties with an unyielding will."
"We will face difficulties with an unyielding will."
"Goddess of the lake, please witness our oath, bless our hearts to be as clear as lake water, and never polluted."
"Goddess of the lake, please witness our oath, bless our hearts to be as clear as lake water, and never polluted."
It seemed that a faint breeze was blowing through the public living room. It was as if the Lady of the Lake was watching this scene, or that Mel was standing in another corner.
De La Torre and Naven stood up.
"Is it so short?" Annan thought he would have to recite a long paragraph.
De La Torre closed his eyes and felt it, then raised his head and shook his head at Naven, and said to Annan: "This is just a ritual of the entourage."
"So I can start helping old ladies cross the street?"
"Help old ladies cross the street?" Naven looked sideways.
De La Torre explained: "Ten thousand challenges."
"There is no witness of the Lady of the Lake."
"So I let him supervise himself."
Naven frowned and said nothing. De La Torre showed a trace of sadness: "The Lady of the Lake has abandoned us. We should learn to adapt."
"That's not abandonment, it's just that there is a problem with the gods..." Naven also sighed, "But you are right, we have to change."
"Annan, we will go to Fas Tundra next."
"You are all gone, what should we do in the valley?"
"The matter of Fas Tundra is related to the life and death of the Kingdom of Dimon. We can't sit idly by."
The Battle of the Northern Wall has not ended yet. Annan does not intend to get involved in the new war, but it does not prevent them from asking what is going on there.
Annan knows it is a demon, and in the eyes of the people in the North, ratmen and demons are not the same...
In any case, ratmen are considered half of the main plane creatures. Although there is no vitality wherever they pass, they are actually much better than demons-
Ratmen and demons are purely based on comparison. When an alien abyss race came to the Allen continent and transformed the original forests, grasslands, and cities into vicious magma, sulfuric acid, and high temperatures, an environment where the creatures of the Allen continent could never survive, even the rat people became amiable.
Even if the demons were released by the rat people.
"Annan, do you want to join us?" De La Torre took the initiative to invite.
