"The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage, and the greatness of mankind is the greatness of courage."
There was so much philosophy in this statement that Cedric couldn't help but chew on it and think about it over and over again.
"Courage..."
Li En is good at teaching and explaining in detail:
"The courage here does not mean not knowing, not understanding, and rushing forward regardless. That is not courage, but simply recklessness. Only recognizing fear, facing fear, accepting fear, and defeating fear is true courage." "I admit that what you said makes sense." Cedric nodded, "But it is fear after all, and fear itself is terrible."
"Of course it's scary, otherwise it wouldn't be called fear. But I still have some experience on this point."
"Mr. Li En, please speak."
"Excuse me, Your Highness, would you feel scared when you hold a sword for the first time?"
"I'm not afraid of Mr. Li En's jokes, I am. Because the sword is double-edged, I'm afraid that if it's pointed at my side, it might accidentally hurt me."
"Will you still do it now?"
"I won't do it now. Because I'm used to it, I know how to use it and how to avoid it."
"Then how did His Highness overcome his fear of swords and get to where he is now?"
"Please let me think about it first."
Cedric held his chin and recalled carefully. To be honest, he had never thought about this issue. It is estimated that most people who practice martial arts have not considered it either.
"I remember. At that time, I felt that I was very useless and wanted to become more useful, so even if I was afraid, I had to force myself to practice, and I suffered several injuries because of it. Fortunately, I quickly learned some tricks, and soon
If you get hurt again, you won’t be afraid anymore.”
"That's it. The key is to keep moving forward." Rean raised a finger, "'The Swordsmith of Light' also said something. Stand up first and take steps with fear. It is natural for people to be confused.
——It is much better than stagnating. The confusion here can be replaced by fear. This is also one of the opportunities for me to control the 'ghost power'."
"That's it." Cedric realized something, "Back to the topic just now. To keep moving forward, you need motivation. The motivation comes from a clear understanding of yourself. After connecting everything in a line, you can turn it into
Courage, conquer fear."
"Your Highness summed it up very well. As long as you don't stop, the road will continue to stretch. It is not impossible to keep this pace and reach the realm that a warrior dreams of."
"The realm that warriors dream of."
A strong yearning appeared on Cedric's face. The empire was martial, and even the lofty crown prince would long for the view of mountains and small mountains.
"Can I do it too..."
"Your Highness is still young, everything is possible."
Rean's words are really not a compliment.
This is the only year that Cedric has really devoted himself to practicing martial arts. At most, he had some basic training at Fandel's house. To be able to have such skill in one year, there is absolutely no need to say that he is talented.
If you can get out of the inner shadow and take the right path, you may not be unable to enter the realm of reason. You must know that Cedric is only seventeen years old, and there is still a long time to slowly polish him.
"What if not?" Cedric said stubbornly.
"There is no loss in that." Li En said with a smile, "At least he has become stronger than his past self. More importantly, His Highness's heart and will have become stronger. His Highness is the first successor to the throne.
For rulers, force is actually not that important. I don’t know His Highness’s father, Your Majesty Kent, very well, so I can’t comment on it, but Prime Minister Osborne is a good example.”
"Prime Minister?" Cedric gave Rean a strange look.
Maybe he already knows about my relationship with him, Li En thought in his heart, but his face remained calm.
"Has Your Highness ever known anything about Prime Minister Osborne's past?"
"I know a little bit. Before he became prime minister, he belonged to the regular army of the empire. He was once favored by Marshal Van Dyke and might become the successor of the marshal. After the 'Hundred Days Battle', he was ordered to negotiate with Lieber, and was therefore promoted to the rank of marshal.
Prime Minister of the Empire."
"Then your Highness, have you ever heard that Prime Minister Osborne was one of the strongest men in the regular army at that time. His attainments in the 'Hundred Styles of Saber Skills' were even praised by Marshal Van Dyke, a recognized master of saber skills. Until now,
Are they all the ones Alleria Branch Principal wants to challenge?"
"Eh -?" Cedric opened his mouth in surprise, and after a while he uttered, "This... I really don't know. Marshal Van Dyke and the 'Golden Rakshasa', but, but I have never seen him.
Used a saber."
"That's why I use him as an example. The inner strength is the real strength. Otherwise, even if you get the strength, you won't be able to control it. In the end, you will only harm others and yourself."
To be honest, Li En actually wanted to ask about his biological father.
He has experienced everything he has experienced.
In the battle of the Yellow Demon City, Rean lost Crowe, and Drykels also lost his most important partner, and his most loved one, the "Saint of the Gun" Lianna Sandlot.
Later, he was troubled by the curse all his life, and could not find peace after reincarnation. Here he experienced the pain of losing his beloved, Rean's biological mother, Kasha, and had to form a contract with the source of the curse, the Black Riding God.
Even so, he never gave in. On the surface, he cooperated with the ambition of the Black Riding God, secretly stirred up the situation, and set up a shocking plan to solve the problem once and for all. In the end, he really solved it, with the help of his biological son Rean.<
/p>
How could such a person not understand what Rean just said? How could he not see that Cedric had gone astray?
As the ancestor of the empire's resurgence before his reincarnation, the greatest emperor in the history of the empire, and the legendary prime minister who shocked the world after his reincarnation, he loves the empire more deeply than anyone else. Why don't you correct Cedric?
That is the future emperor. The stronger he is and the more he grows, the empire will have a better future.
In order for the plan to succeed, Hei's consciousness must be completely paralyzed, so using Cedric as a chess piece is like using his own son as a chess piece?
But Cedric's own thoughts will not actually affect the advancement of the plan. He has always been the initiator of Scarlet and will participate in conflicts and decisive battles. However, Jukent III, who knows the inside story, has always stood on Osborne's side, and the plan has nothing to do with the advancement of the plan.
Obstacle.
Or maybe he has decided that Cedric is not suitable to be emperor, so he is eliminated in this way and handed over to a more suitable person, such as Oribat or His Highness Elfin?
Since Rean left the world before his return, I don’t know what the subsequent development will be. Normally, it should be His Highness Oribat. After all, he led the final "Glorious Wings" battle, and he also stopped the "Earth Dragon"
, the international reputation is high, and once the matter is resolved, it will surely reach a higher level.
Although Alfin is not bad and is stronger than Cedric, compared with Oribat, he is far from mature enough.
Although Oribat seemed to have expressed more than once that he did not want to be the emperor, but when it came to that point, Rean did not believe that he would leave the empire he loved so much.
If he had to not be the emperor, then Elfin would probably succeed him and Oribat would succeed him as prime minister.
As for the previous prime minister, he died in the decisive battle with Rean, just like several other people who became initiators as "immortals".
If possible, Rean hopes that none of them will die. Even if they exist in this special way, it is better than disappearing completely, because each of them is an important person in Class VII, and each of them still has important ties.
No one deserves to die.
How to save them is also one of Rean's wishes. The reversal of the future he longs for is a happy ending.
Of course, he also knew that this idea was almost a fantasy, but he just couldn't let it go.
However, a suggestion from Caster last month inspired him - let Levi, a servant, be the initiator of gold. If he can succeed, he may have a new opportunity.
PS: Osborne: Son, you guessed wrong. I want you to be the emperor and merge the two Anor into one!
PS2: The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage, and the greatness of mankind is the greatness of courage. This was actually said by Zeppelin, so it was actually Rean Zeppelin. The Cedric who listened to this is Da Qiao
——Although, both of these endings are not good. Yes, the Anor family is actually the Joestar family, with golden hair and golden spirit, and Oribat also fits this image very well——I fight, eat King’s meals, and run naked, but
I'm still a gentleman, and like JOJO, I'm the most slutty - although this person's stand-in is actually "The world"!
