Act 209 Curtain II
In fact, in the army at this moment, in addition to the loyal White Lion Guards, Lantoniland's coalition forces, and the noble troops from the north, there are rumors like this - think about it, Butchi's hatred, for the first time Can the blood shed in the Black Rose War be easily eliminated?
The Eruin people need revenge. Now they are in front of the goddess of victory, but they have to hold back because of a letter, and even have to form an alliance with their former enemies. ∈↗,
How ridiculous is this?
Freya was extremely disgusted by such a statement - where is the victory? Eruin is like in a quagmire of despair. Manowell's local advantage alone cannot change the final result.
Even this slight advantage was obtained by chance.
Although everyone here respects her as the Valkyrie, Freya maintains clarity and reason in her heart. She is very clear about the reason for her victory. It does not rely on her personal bravery or her acumen on the battlefield. Her sense of smell is not her excellent commanding ability, nor is it her unwavering belief in winning victory.
The only thing that determines the outcome of the battlefield is Arvette's defection in battle.
But fanatical people often fail to see this——
It's a pity that not every undead lord is Brynhild's former companion. The case of the Banshee King couldn't be more coincidental. The reason why a coincidence is called a coincidence is that it cannot be repeated over and over again. now.
Eruin will not be so lucky every time.
And when people are superstitious about this, they will suffer. But a mistake may not be harmful to an opponent like Madara, but if it is changed to this small kingdom, it may be doomed. Freya's heart She didn't understand what the royal party planned, but the only thing she could be thankful for was. Before anything happened, the war was over.
Eruin may push this fatal mistake to a longer future, hoping that by that time, it will be strong enough to withstand the consequences of his own hands.
But now, the spearhead has moved away from Madara and pointed at another person.
One she was familiar with. Respect and admire people.
"Let's go, there's nothing to see!" She took one last look at the scene below the hills, turned back and said to the others.
The knights put away their weapons one by one. They knew what the lady was worried about. Most of them were actually young people from Tonigel. The families of these young people once stood on the opposite side of this new force. But now. Most of them benefited from it, and because of Princess Griffin, they were firmly tied to Brando's chariot.
Many of them have experienced the Silman War, and some have even experienced the early Battle of Mintai and the War of Ampelsel. They are the second sons of the family. They originally joined the White Lion Guard with the mentality of being treated as hostages. Brando's army, but they got. Far more than they imagined.
Now they are knights, the swords of the kingdom. They have real noble titles, land and ministers, all of which are due to Tony Geer's changes.
Whether it is to protect the honor of the knights or their own interests, they are the most loyal followers of Brando and the White Lion Guard.
More importantly. Many people understand - Her Royal Highness also stands with them.
Therefore, although the glory of the two-month winning streak came to an abrupt end, few people had a word of complaint against their lord. On the contrary, they were full of resentment at the rumors outside:
"Your Excellency, Commander, those country bumpkins don't understand how much the Earl paid for Eruin. Don't get angry because of those bullshit. Where were they during the Battle of Ampelsel? Where were they during the Battle of Silman? Huh, they are just a group of worms who have gained something for nothing. When the lord returns to Eruin, they will be unlucky."
"That's right. Those rumors outside are spread deliberately by clowns from the royal party.
Otherwise, a few people would have known the content of the original letter. If the lord had not convinced the Emperor of Madara, we still don’t know how long this war would have lasted. There is no war without bloodshed in this world, but there will be no bloodshed. It's just for those high-ranking old men, so they naturally don't feel any pain or itching. "
"Yes, during the First Black Rose War, the population of the area near Braggs was reduced by 30%, and various taxes were directly reduced by more than 70%. Karasu was even worse, and the Jincheng area almost turned into a wilderness. Now this war can no longer be fought. By three months, the area from Manovel to Fort Kurk was completely paralyzed. Let’s see why the only ones who support the armistice are Golan-Elsen and Karasu, because the others have not been cut by the knife. They naturally don’t feel pain or itching on them.”
The knights all echoed.
Someone shook his head again and said: "Aren't there still Lantonilans?"
"Ha, that Mr. Knight of Lantonilan is a die-hard supporter of our lord, that's different." When mentioning the Knight of Lantonilan, Eco, everyone couldn't help but become happy. It is said that this old-fashioned Mr. Knight has recently been The royal party has been furious.
Because as the headquarters of the royal party, the future Grand Duke of Llantonilan has always stood firmly on the side of Her Royal Highness the Princess and Count Tonigel. This is simply more disgusting to Macaro and others than eating flies in a bowl of porridge. .
Freya glanced at her knights and felt a little more cheerful, but she shook her head: "Don't discuss these, knights, we only have one mission, and that is to fight and win. The Earl will naturally take care of it. Everything, and the royal party is not our enemy."
The knights shrugged and looked at each other, understanding what their commander meant. The royal party was already attacking the Earl for losing power, humiliating the country, and being unruly. She just didn't want to leave more excuses in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
After all, everyone knows whose will the White Lion Guard and her, the Valkyrie, really represent.
But the young knights all sneered at this. In their eyes, their commander was too selfless. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she had feelings for the earl, but everyone understood that the kingdom and the lord , she can only choose one.
Although the knights are talking and laughing on the surface, they may not completely agree with this matter in their hearts. Most of them are aristocratic children born in Tonigel, and their way of looking at the problem is naturally similar to Brando's experience in two lives. People are very different, and they are definitely not idealists like Eruin's Valkyrie.
It is true that most of these young people, Eruin, have extremely high loyalty to the spirit of the White Lion. Outsiders call them knights of Her Royal Highness. This is not a problem, but that is only in Griffin. When standing with Brando.
Who can represent Eruin, this is a question.
However, for these young knights, it is not a problem. In their view, whoever brings glory to Eruin can represent Eruin.
The battle between the central and local governments has never ceased since the birth of this kingdom. Could it be that the current differences between the royal party and Her Royal Highness the Princess stem from this? The things that bothered Freya seemed normal to these knights. They even knew that Princess Griffin would definitely side with the Earl.
There is nothing wrong with this.
But even if they knew it, no one would say it out loud. Freya was not born into a noble family, so she naturally did not understand the rules of the game among the nobles. However, for these young knights, this knowledge was innate.
They turned their horses and were about to leave, but at this moment, the bushes behind them suddenly parted, revealing several knights.
The knights were startled and subconsciously wanted to draw their weapons, but Freya stretched out her hand to stop them.
The person coming is Brünnhilde.
Brando is the head of the Valkyrie knights, but behind her is a relatively unfamiliar female knight. She is also riding a wind horse. She is slender and tall, with beautiful long flaming hair. Her aura is different from that of ordinary people. The heroic and fearless temperament of the Valkyries is very different, giving people a strange sense of calmness and quietness.
The first time Freya saw the other person, she understood the identity of this woman.
Arvette, the Banshee King.
She is one of the three most famous Valkyries in history. She is Brynhildr's deputy and the brains of these Valkyrie sisters. After the destruction of Valhalla, she self-exiled to Madara. The identity of the heroic spirit became an undead lord.
Freya only learned about this history recently.
"Miss Brunhilder, what's the matter?" Freya asked looking at the Banshee King.
Brynhildr shook her head, but Arvette behind her stood up and said with a smile: "I am the one looking for you, Miss Freya."
"Um?"
"I just received a letter from His Majesty the Emperor. Mr. Brando asked me to take you to see him."
"Ms. Arvite, what did you say?"
…
In front of Brando is a corridor paved with obsidian, with a very high vault and seventeen columns forming an open space. On both sides of the corridor are rose windows with a darker tone, with broken The glass is inlaid with some legends and stories about the past.
But those are not the glorious scrolls of the Golden Flame Temple, about the legendary wars between the former kings and the mortals, but some obscure, depressing, and even dark legends.
He took two steps and raised his head to look at this temple that had existed for thousands of years.
The sanctum sanctorum of the Black Rose of Brahmanda.
Temple of the Dead Moon.
