"It seems that it is not easy to meet this Lord Victoria." Link sat on the chair, but he felt a little uncomfortable no matter what. He turned to Bavel and whispered: "Big Daddy"
,Have you been here before?"
Bavel looked at Link sitting on the chair, posing in full posture, holding back his laughter and said: "We haven't waited long, don't be so impatient."
"Hasn't this been a long time coming?" Link nodded, assumed the magnanimous posture a hero should have, and smiled as he greeted a soldier who ran in on the pretext of a drink. He looked at the soldier with a smile on his face.
He turned around and walked out of the door, then turned to Pavel and lamented: "I have been waiting here for countless years!"
"You are a great hero." It was rare for Bavel to joke. He looked at Link, smiled and shook his head: "Now you know what it's like to be a great hero, great knight Link?
!”
"I know, I know!" Link muttered, but he was busy putting on a smile on his face. He turned to another soldier who sneaked in without knowing what excuse he made. He could only sigh secretly in his stomach.
: "It's really not easy to be a hero!"
No matter what kind of dragon, pond or tiger's den, he has seen a lot. After nearly three years of practice in the mage tower, Link can already be calm and calm even if it is surrounded by the strong death aura of Master Lei Ze, but that is
In Lord Victoria's command post, the overwhelming number of soldiers who regarded him as their idols made Link truly know what it meant to feel restless.
You must know that Link's deeds of guarding the small town alone, with the tacit approval of the imperial royal family and the military, and even the intentional or unintentional promotion, have long become a familiar thing to everyone in the imperial army, and it has also given rise to countless exaggerations that are unknown.
To what extent, after all, in the case of the Bavarian Empire, in this joint bandit suppression operation between the two empires, it was a knight from the Bavarian Empire who finally turned the tide of the entire war, not a member of the Sakara Empire.
, relatively speaking, it can be regarded as something that can save some face, but for the empire's military, in such a battle that is actually very embarrassing, highlighting a certain hero will make everyone's
All eyes are focused on the radiance of the heroes, and they forget about the various problems of the imperial army exposed in the battle, so as to publicize a shameful thing as a glorious thing. What's more, the military or the officials of the entire empire have never
One of the tricks that he is extremely good at.
As Link's hometown, Fort Colo is the focus of publicity. Although the soldiers of Fort Colo don't know Link very well, Link is considered a celebrity among the soldiers of Fort Colo.
, the scene where he made a fuss when he signed up for the knight apprentice selection was considered a relatively sensational event in the small town of Fort Colo, which usually had nothing much to do, especially within the garrison. Link had already gone there before
When he was a knight's apprentice, it was a name that was often mentioned by everyone, and Lord Victoria's efforts to search for Link without stopping for several years also made Link change in the minds of the soldiers of Castle Colo.
It is becoming more and more like a legend. Compared to other places, in the small border town of Coloburg, Link's admirers are probably much more than in other places.
So when Link just arrived here, the news spread to all the soldiers who happened to be on guard at the Fort Colo garrison command post, including Lord Victoria's guards, and all of a sudden they were standing guard in the hall.
The positions of the two sentry posts became the most sought-after places. I don’t know how many people rushed to exchange. From the first meal to the number of meals later, the two soldiers who were supposed to be on duty here today were counted.
, after today, I can have free meals for almost a year.
At the beginning, Link still enjoyed the admiration. He sat upright according to the impression that a hero should have, with a cool and approachable expression on his face.
He came with an expression, nodding to the admirers who came in with various excuses. At first, he thought it was really fun, but it didn't take long for the great Link Knight to start to think that heroes are actually,
It's not that fun either.
He was originally the most unaccustomed to sitting quietly and upright. He just wanted to experience the feeling of being a hero at the beginning. However, there was an endless stream of people coming and going. I don’t know how long he had to stay like this.
Even with such a posture and such a smile on his face, Link felt like his face was about to get cramped.
Moreover, the soldiers on guard duty were not originally responsible for receiving guests, so when those soldiers ran into the hall to see the idols, they had to find an excuse to bring water or some food.
Something like that, now Link has a little bit of a sense of how Old Scuva felt after he drank those dozens of kilograms of wine that day.
"Uh," Link burped, but looking at the soldier who ran in in front of him with a look full of expectation on his face, he still took what he brought over and took a sip, not sure if it was water or wine.
, he only felt a feeling that something was about to flip up in his stomach. He didn't care about Pavel who was holding back his laughter. He turned his head directly to the fat butler who was standing aside and wiping his sweat and shouted: "Uncle Fatty."
, I asked you, Mr. Victoria, if it’s not convenient today, why don’t we come to visit another day.”
Link couldn't care less about being polite or impolite now. If he drank such a glass of water that was almost tasteless, Link felt like he was going to die here.
Of course the great Knight Link is not afraid of death, but he must die a heroic death anyway. After all, Knight Link is a character who has even gone through the challenge of the Mage Tower. If these drinks and snacks are allowed to hang on
Here, the hero who was reborn in the empire suddenly became the joke of the reborn empire.
"No! No!" The sweat on the fat butler's forehead became even thicker. He wiped it hurriedly while bending down and smiling: "Dear Knight Link, please wait a little longer, wait a little longer, our family
The master will be there soon, he will be there soon!"
The fat housekeeper also felt a fire in his heart now. On weekdays, none of the soldiers guarding the garrison would dare to be so disobedient. Why did one or two of them look like they had eaten something today? Even if he personally stood aside,
His eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and both of them thought he was transparent.
As early as a few years ago, when he sent Link to sign up as a knight's apprentice, the fat butler had seen that the relationship between Link's family and his master was as strong as the iron, and in the past few years, Lord Victoria has been very concerned about the relationship between the family and his master.
Basically everyone believed that Link was dead and his never-ending search even made the fat butler not believe that it was just for the empire. He also understood more about the importance of Link's family in Lady Victoria's heart.
portion size.
What's more, the current Link is no longer the kid who in his eyes only relied on his father and Lord Victoria's family connections to get into trouble. In that joint bandit suppression operation, the fat butler led
With the first batch of troops rushing to the scene as quickly as possible, he knows more about the real situation than anyone else. As a knight who has followed Lord Victoria for many years, he knows to some extent what the real battle is like. Fatty
From the traces at the scene, the butler can almost accurately deduce what kind of battle he went through. Therefore, although the fat butler does not have a blind worship of Link like those ordinary soldiers, he still has a blind respect for Link in front of him.
Link still regards him as a true knight worthy of respect.
What's more, even if you put aside the previous ones, the current Link is definitely not a guest who should be treated lightly. Although the current Link is still just a trainee knight, he is now followed by the imperial royal family.
After the military department recognized his merits, no one dared to underestimate this young hero.
What on earth did my master do today, and why hasn't he come out yet?! Is it Earl Weir from some other city who is causing trouble again?!
This time the princess came to Cologne Castle, it was an extremely secret matter. Even though the fat housekeeper was considered Lord Victoria's most trustworthy subordinate, he only knew that it was Earl Weir who came to Cologne with a woman who was also a noble.
Luo Bao, but did not know the true identity of the princess.
"This seems to be a bit wrong." Bavel also frowned and looked towards the back hall: "There is no way Victoria can't wake up like this. This is too ridiculous. I heard Link is back.
The news, you should be so happy that you jump up and down?!"
"Happy?! How can I be so damn happy?!" Master Victoria did not have the slightest bit of joy as Bawell had imagined. He was now in the back hall, feeling so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall: "Link
Ah, Link, you said you wouldn’t come back sooner or later, why did you come back at this time?!”
As for Master Victoria, he has personally met Elen, listened to what she said about Link's situation, and also personally inspected the scene where Link fought with the monster boss, so among all the people, he is probably the best
He is the most confident that Link can return safely. This is one of the reasons why he has never stopped sending people to stay in the town and search for Link's traces in the surrounding area over the years.
Originally, Lady Victoria was very happy that Link could appear alive in front of her eyes. However, now there is an imperial princess, and this imperial princess is actually an admirer of Link.
, so Lady Victoria couldn’t be happy at all.
"Is that okay? Master Victoria?" The princess was now surrounding Master Victoria: "Oh, no, Uncle Victoria, this is the decision, okay?"
"No, no," Victoria said with a bitter smile, "I can't afford it!"
"You deserve it, you deserve it. I used to hear Uncle Victoria's name all the time in the palace." Although the princess was veiled, Victoria could still imagine her smiling face now.
: "Everyone says that Uncle Victoria is loyal to the imperial family and will never refuse requests from the imperial family!"
"Princess," Earl Weir, who had been trying to interrupt, couldn't stand it anymore, and finally had the courage to shout: "You are here, representing the dignity of the imperial family! You can't..."
"Earl Weir", turning to face Earl Weir, the princess immediately changed her tone and said: "If I remember correctly, before we left the capital, my father once told you that all
You have to obey my orders. What can I do and what can’t I do? It seems like it’s not your turn to speak, right?!"
Earl Weir was so choked that he rolled his eyes, but he had no choice but to return the favor in the imperial capital at ordinary times. After all, in the imperial capital, princesses usually live in the palace for a long time, and there are not many people who can directly command them, even though they are nominally distinguished.
, but when it comes to real power, it may not be as great as that of Count Vere, a military official.
But it is different now. Now he is out of town. Lord Victoria, the "butcher", is famously loyal to the royal family. Count Weir also knows that Lord Victoria has disliked him for more than a day or two. He just felt more deeply
After experiencing Victoria's terror, if she said something wrong at this time and asked the princess to be more serious and use chicken feathers as arrows, I believe Lady Victoria would be happy to do it to her.
"Alas..." Just when Count Weir was depressed and silent, Lady Victoria also had a wry smile on her face, frowned, and shook her head.
When the princess came to Colo Castle this time, the task given to Lord Victoria was actually very simple. The princess wanted to marry a prince of the Sakara Empire, so she asked Lord Victoria to send a capable knight.
With some soldiers, he escorted the princess to the territory of Saqqara.
There have been marriages between the royal families of the two empires throughout the ages. This is not surprising. However, from the first day when the imperial princess arrived at Castle Colo, Lord Victoria felt that this seemingly simple matter
, there are some very extraordinary things in it.
There has been peace on the mainland for who knows how many years. The relationship between countries is mainly maintained by economy and in-laws. Every marriage between the royal families of the two countries is almost a matter of diplomacy between countries.
It is the most important event in the world, so whether it is marriage or marriage, the two countries have devoted their entire national efforts to the event. In Lord Victoria’s impression, she has also seen a princess wedding.
It was really the biggest grand ceremony in the country. It was really unimaginable that this princess came to the border so quietly with a group of entourage and an earl who was bringing her wedding.
Master Victoria was not completely ignorant of how deep and muddy the water was in the Imperial Capital, but he never wanted to pay attention to it, let alone be forced to swim in it one day. It was also because of this that he would
Please run to this remote small town to escape the annoying ups and downs above.
Therefore, before he had a clear understanding of the situation above, he had always been half-procrastinating about escorting the princess, making various excuses to put it off. Moreover, it seemed that the princess was not at all.
He didn't appear to be in a hurry, but instead cooperated intentionally or unintentionally with his procrastination, which also made Lady Victoria more determined to procrastinate.
He is not in a hurry about this matter, and it seems that the princess is not in a hurry either. Earl Weir is obviously just a heartless pawn. As long as he delays it, he can always wait until the really anxious person appears, allowing him to see the situation clearly.
Make another judgment.
But now with the appearance of Link, this good situation has obviously been broken.
"Okay, Uncle Victoria?" the princess turned to face Master Victoria, but then changed her expression, her two big eyes under the veil were full of tears: "Let Knight Link act as my escort!
"
Ruined!
Lady Victoria looked at the princess and didn't even bother to say anything to persuade her.
This little girl's eyes clearly say that she is infatuated!
Although Victoria-sama doesn't know much about women, she does know that it would be more meaningful to discuss philosophy with a nymphomaniac little girl than to discuss philosophy with a pig beast.
It's just that his concern for Link is not just for a subordinate knight. Link is the only son of his old commander, so he really doesn't want Link to have just returned safely and step into such a world.
He went into a situation where even he couldn't see clearly.
These bastard affairs in the palace are so dangerous that sometimes they are even more disturbing than on the battlefield.
"Princess," Master Victoria sighed: "Actually, I have already arranged the guards and knights assigned to you. You can prepare them tomorrow. You can set off early the morning after tomorrow!"
At this point, there was really no other way. He couldn't watch Link jump into this pit, so he had to do it himself.
He found it troublesome to deal with such a thing, but in this situation, he couldn't avoid it.
In the past, in their team, everyone could safely give their back to their comrades, and everyone would block the sword for others without hesitation. The same is true for him now.
"That's good..." Earl Weir just shouted happily, but was immediately interrupted.
"No!" The princess's voice rang out loudly, leaving Earl Weir and Lord Victoria dumbfounded for a moment: "If it weren't for the escort of Knight Link, no matter who it was, I would stay here and never leave!"
