The Amber Sword: Act Fourteen Brother and Sister III
When the wheels of the carriage run over the gap between the slate and the slate connection, a slight vibration makes an uninterrupted rut, and the inside of the carriage slightly shakes, but it is quiet for a while.
Princess Gryphine seems to understand the problem of Brando's. There is a hint of doubt in her silver grey eyes, "Magic? Mr. Brando, Halutz, he has not yet started to learn Magic. I plan to make him mature and consider it, let alone Halutz as the royal family. member ... In fact, I don't plan to let him go too close to wizards. "
This is a tradition in the Vaunde world. nobles often causes children of one's own to practice Magic, but there are few similar situations in the royal family. Magic is related to mysterious and unknown forces, and the heir to the throne should be as far away from unpredictable danger as possible. Even among those great noble family, the eldest son rarely came from wizard. Even if she is Princess Gryphine herself, Lockwood is just a teacher of her occultology and wizard etiquette and history.
"Is this so ..." Brando stared between the thumb and index finger of Halutz. The sides of the Three Corners of Mana area were almost transparent. This was the performance of at least one Mana excitation response; Forming a solid Laws like the Ring of the Wind Empress, only one spell in the Brando's memory will cause such a change, that is, Black Magic.
"Is there any problem, Mr. Brando?" Princess Gryphine frowned and looked at one's own brother. Halutz lowered his head in fear and put his hands between his knees.
But Brando said blandly: "No, I just think that Your Highness's hand is more like wizard than Swordsman. When the average noble children are as big as him, already started to practice Swordsmanship, right?" He As he said, his Highness Halutz gave him a surprised look at raises head; Brando did not pay attention to Princess Gryphine, blinked at this Little Prince, -- scared the former and quickly lowered his head, as if he was afraid that his sister would notice it.
Princess didn't pay attention to this, she felt a little blushed. Halutz did begin to practice Swordsmanship very early. The problem is how she said that one's own brother is an incompetent guy, not to mention Swordsmanship. Even the courage to hold a sword is lacking.
"Halutz him ... because after leaving royal capital, I haven't been able to spare much time to take care of him ..." Finally she sighed, still took responsibility to herself.
"Sister ..." Halutz said weakly.
"Shut up," Princess Gryphine said suddenly and sternly: "There is also a reason for your one's own, so you should review it." Brando looked a little funny to his sister. He thought maybe the weak side of Little Prince also had The reason for this Eldest Princess is that Princess Gryphine is too strong compared to the average sister.
Halutz was reprimanded by his sister. Sure enough, he buried his head obediently and stopped talking, like a small animal shivering and curling up.
But Brando knowingly asked: "Is there Oberbeck and Makarov adults, aren't they? If I remember correctly, some of them are famous swordsmen of the kingdom."
He suddenly noticed that Romaine on the side was feeding a white cat with a biscuit, and that white cat was squatting on her lap. He didn't even notice when the little thing appeared. All she saw was holding her head up and squinting her golden eyes at him. Aside from Amandina, she noticed Lord Thane's's eyes. She turned her head and curiously reached out to stroke the cat's head.
Brando saw the cat narrow his eyes comfortably. Just turned around. Her Highness the Princess apparently noticed this scene, but she didn't realize the purpose of Brando's question, but replied: "They all taught Halutz. But Halutz's talent on Swordsmanship ..." half-elven girl showed disappointment, and again Some helpless.
From an older age, noble will lead the one's own people to fight against the invasion of monster. The strength of noble itself means that he has the ability to protect those who depend on them. Although the era of peace began to extend after the expansion of the borders of civilization further, the symbolic significance of Swordsmanship of noble is far greater than its actual significance, but as the heir to the throne, it is a waste in itself, which will affect him more or less Majesty in the eyes of a courtier.
"Swordsmanship talent is only a problem. Normal people enter the golden period of learning from the age of twelve, and it is not necessarily too early to assert. But for a qualified swordsman, the first thing to possess is the courage to defeat one's own. . "Brando looked at Halutz and said slowly. He didn't know if His Royal Highness had any talents, but he knew that for His Royal Highness. The crux of the problem is probably not talent.
And in guts.
Princess Gryphine looked at him in surprise. Her Highness the Princess certainly heard the voice of Brando's, "Mr. Brando, what do you mean?"
She was desperate. Oberbeck once taught Swordsmanship of a period of time Halutz. Although the Wolf Knight had patience, he could not give Halutz the courage to face the one's own sword.
Brando nodded. This is what he originally thought. In his vision, a kingdom such as Aouine will eventually move toward a polity similar to the Council of Nobles of Kirrlutzian before and after Second Era. It seems that Her Highness the Princess is also aware of this. But before that, Aouine finally over-completed the king of this transformation, at least he did not want to see a weak man at the mercy of others.
Moreover, if those players on the forum are right, Halutz should be an outstanding king.
"Her Highness the Princess, do you want me to be a teacher of Prince Halutz?" He thought for a moment, and asked, "But there is nothing experience underneath, there is no guarantee that he will teach His Highness Prince."
Brando is not modest, just a shot. Prior to him, Oberbeck and Lockwood had served as the teacher of His Highness Little Prince, and he thinks that he is not necessarily better than these outstanding people of this era, even far away. Not as good.
On the other hand, he does not have much experience. However, he is more inclined to use this Little Prince as an experiment. The worst result will not bring any negative impact, but if it is successful, the gain will be too great.
Not to mention having a good relationship with your future King, whether it is Halutz or Her Highness the Princess, you can get a higher Reputation, Brando knows how much this Her Highness the Princess cares about one's own brother.
Princess Gryphine's idea is completely different from Brando. The inheritance of Sword Saint Darus is just enough for Brando to become His Highness Prince's teacher. She knows that there is a huge network of people behind it, not to mention that Brando herself is also Swordsmanship's outstanding and knowledgeable.
She gently breathed in. Sure enough, the Brando's's affection has deepened a little bit, and finally managed to converge the surprise in my heart, and immediately said to the younger brother: "Halutz, call the teacher."
But Halutz raises head, looked at Brando a little fearfully, and then looked back and said, "Sister ..." He was still worried about Brando breaking his secrets before.
Princess Gryphine did not anticipate her brother ’s inner world at all. She frowned like a severe mother, and said irresistibly, "Halutz. Mr. Brando is a descendant of Sword Saint Darus. His Swordsmanship accomplishment is Buga Mr. Mr. Brando is also very knowledgeable. Besides, even Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Garlock have praised him. As a teacher, what ’s your dissatisfaction?
Her tone was getting harsher, and she was startled by Halutz. Little Prince then reluctantly lowered his head to Brando and whispered: "Teacher." The voice was weak and soft like a lamb, and Brando could not laugh or cry. He could clearly see that although His Royal Highness was respectful. Just don't call yourself this time, even if a pig is under the persecution of Her Highness the Princess, Halutz can obediently call it a teacher.
Fortunately, he is not in a hurry, no matter how Halutz is just a child with a weak personality. If he ca n’t even cope with a child, he ’ll go home early and plant sweet potatoes.
Moreover, His Royal Highness still has a handle in his hands.
Thinking about Brando, I couldn't help shaking my head with a smile.
Then the two exchanged the sabre in accordance with the etiquette of the Vaunde world. Of course, this was just a ritual. The process was that Halutz first delivered the one's own sabre to Brando. After Brando turned his sword and gave it to His Royal Highness, in the classical era, this process symbolized the teacher's gift of student knowledge and sword, but now this ceremony already has become a ritual form.
After completing this formal etiquette, Brando has the teachers and students for Halutz Prince. In fact, Brando as a player has heard of this etiquette existence. But he is not clear about the details. Generally speaking, the teacher and professor student have a certain observation period, and the ceremony will not be officially held until they are satisfied. Of course, he does not know that Her Highness the Princess hastily let Halutz perform this ceremony. In fact, it was a small calculation of him.
At Vaunde. Once the names of teachers and students are established, it is not easy to dissolve them.
Fortunately, Brando actually doesn't care about this. However, if Princess Gryphine knew that her Knight in front of her was just trying to take one's own brother as an experiment, I'm afraid I would stab him in the car with a sword.
Unfortunately, both of them were playing their respective schemes, and for a while they didn't notice where the other side's "conspiracy" was.
The carriage quickly reached the destination -- at the gate of a manor courtyard in the Passa Road area. Because the reconstruction of Andefleur Cathedral is far from complete, Deacon Wood recently has been temporarily living here. Both Princess Gryphine and Brando have heard that this place should belong to the Sifah family's real estate in Ampere Searl, but neither of them is a small-bellied chicken intestine, so there is no particular concern about this.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Apparently Wood was ready to welcome Her Highness the Princess. Soon, servants would open the way for them and lead everyone into the courtyard. As soon as I got out of the car, Amandina quickly pulled Romaine to the front, and Her Highness the Princess was one step ahead, leaving only Brando and Halutz princes at the back.
This is actually a tradition. Her Highness the Princess understands that as a teacher Brando must have something to say to one's own new student. However, she appreciated that the Miss Adviser under Brando was so smart and capable that she even reacted one step ahead of her.
The etiquette of the upper-level noble, we must know that most people do not know much, even if it is noble family of half, very little attention.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Amandina twice.
On the other hand, Brando does have something to say to Halutz. However, when he got out of the car, he saw Prince Halutz alone walking at least two or three meters away from him, as if he was a flood beast. However, His Royal Highness Little Prince still understands the basic etiquette, dare not go over, and go side by side with him.
Brando looked at His Royal Highness Prince walking down with a funny look, of course he knew what the other party was afraid of: "His Highness Halutz."
Halutz was startled, raises head came to look at him. "How, how ... teacher ..."
"She doesn't know Her Highness the Princess?" Brando asked.
Halutz turned white: "Old, teacher ... I ..."
"Who taught you?" Brando asked, and of course he said that His Highness Little Prince was practicing Black Magic. He didn't raise it in front of Her Highness the Princess at the time. One was to leave a handle, and the other was not to make things big.
Chu Jun of a country practices Black Magic, which is of course a matter of course in Madara. But in Aouine, this kingdom under the rule of Holy Cathedral of Fire is an extraordinary event. Brando first thought of conspiracy, but it does not rule out other possibilities.
First, he needs to get the answer here at Halutz.
But Halutz shook his head vigorously: "No, no one taught me ..."
This certainly doesn't sound like the truth. However, Brando was puzzled to see that Little Prince's face was flushed. How could it not look like he was lying? He froze slightly, thinking that it was really what he expected?
He asked curiously: "What the **** is going on, Halutz, and now I am your teacher, you must answer my question truthfully. I can promise not to tell your sister."
This sentence obviously has a great effect on Halutz. The boy raises head glanced weakly at Brando, as if he was a little skeptical, but finally he dared to ask, "Really?"
"I promise, even Her Highness the Princess believes me, do you believe me?" Brando replied a little shamelessly. He couldn't help but want to scratch his face, feeling that he was blushing a little bit, but it was against Correct to coax the children. He just didn't hear it.
Halutz thought about it and nodded honestly: "Actually ... I don't know why, teacher."
"Hah?" Brando froze, this question is almost like not answering. But he heard the clues and asked, "You don't know why it is?"
"It's ... I don't know if it's Magic ..."
"Did you secretly go to the royal library?" Brando immediately asked.
Halutz froze slightly, glanced at him a little and nodded. Sure enough, Brando knew for a while and asked, "You read the book inside?"
Nod again.
"Did you imitate the contents?"
"Um ..." answered carefully.
"How many times?"
"Only once ... you must never tell your sister, Lord Count." Halutz pleaded whispered quickly. In his opinion, Brando already is similar to a monster, and he couldn't imagine how the Lord Count guessed it all.
He just accidentally entered the forbidden area once before leaving royal capital, and only once. And he thought no one knew it.
He couldn't help looking at Brando with some fear.
Brando also looks at his newly acquired student, and his already can be sure that something on the forum may be true.

(ps: Happy New Year, everyone ...)
