Black Scepter Chapter 86: A sudden duel
Going to hand in the paper, I am ready to continue to be sprayed, please bless. . .
......
"Go to the battlefield? I think for the first time facing the cavalry hedge of more than fifty people, anyone will be nervous."
Not far away, Justinian boasted, with an elegant tone, but apparently flaunted his experience of having participated in the actual training of the Imperial Guards-except for the Cavaliers Academy, it was also the privilege of some big nobles to enter the Guards directly However, the title obtained after the training of the Imperial Guard is directly subordinate to the royal “Guardian of the Country”. In principle, it is only loyal to the royal family rather than the family in the usual sense, so the ordinary nobles will not choose Send your heir to the Imperial Guard.
"Sara, have you ever experienced a real knight battle?"
"Elegant Miss Pagani, I think the real knight battle should not be the fancy contest of removing the saddle back seat and using the hollow lance, it will only add laughter to the audience."
Justinini nodded slightly at the noble lady who asked the question, "Although I have not been to the border of the empire and fought against the legendary brave Cavaliers, but in the guard barracks, he trained with a gun. But the real gun is actually fighting, and that kind of scene may only be described by personal experience. Forgiveness, I need to hold the rifle with my hands instead of holding the pen every day like some people. I can’t describe it with accurate and elegant words. "
Slightly self-deprecating, but self-promoting, his eyes slightly glanced at the Morpheus that happened to pass by, the meaning is self-evident-and the latter naturally became a "hand-held pen" guy in the eyes of others.
The Morpheus, who was thinking about how to leave here, stopped suddenly, and his original expressionless face suddenly changed into a warm smile.
"Unfortunately, I hold the pen in search of truth, not to learn fancy vocabulary to please anyone, respected Master Sara."
Morpheus took a few steps forward and stood opposite Sarah Justinian, who was originally in the center of the crowd. Although he is slightly shorter than the other, the temperament of the noble mask at this moment is still let The discerning people all around felt something was wrong.
Sarah, who has always been in the focus of her eyes, was surprised to get this answer. Looking at the Morpheus, which is still "friendly" in front of him, he raised his eyebrows and scoffed at the "seeking truth" in his mouth: "Is the heir to Windsor about to take the path of a philosopher? Can the writings of Aristotle bring three more territories to the empire?"
Aristotle was a great philosopher and educator of the ancient Sica empire. His research on the theory of formal logic has been extended to the present, almost affecting the entire philosophical system of Byzantine today, but there are books about him, Byzantine The Empire will never be used as a textbook for universal education-because it is too difficult, few people are willing to touch it.
"I am just a student who likes to read books." Morpheus spreads his hands, "By the way, he is also a knight."
"It’s not necessarily all knights who can ride horses."
The young and arrogant Sarah apparently has no patience to continue to work around, "I will say this when you are on the battlefield, little boy."
The smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and stronger. The nobles watching around them suddenly noticed that the momentum was wrong-this is the banquet scene of Windsor. The two teenagers who were about to quarrel inexplicably were not simple characters.
While not waiting for Morpheus to respond, Sarah has taken out a delicate embroidered silver glove from the jacket pocket with a sneer and gently threw it, saying: "Dare you take it?"
The gloves fell and stopped at the feet of Morpheus.
At this moment, the entire circle surrounding the two was silent.
Since the perfection of the knight system, all the meaning of throwing gloves has represented only one meaning in all countries of the entire continent-duel.
Pick up the gloves. This is what any knight must do in the face of this situation-whether the opponent's challenge request is extreme, arrogant, or out of date, this is the only thing that can be done.
Morpheus did not recite the "Knight System" compiled and published by the Fording Empire, but it understood its significance-Tang Jidi had teased that the gloves he had received were enough to fill a museum, and he did not refuse it once.
"Now?"
Morpheus gently picked up the glove and asked with a smile.
No one saw the irritability that had not been seen in his eyes for a long time. When he was chased and chased after being chased by the king of Karba for half a forest, he climbed the cliff alone and killed seven because his arm was ripped off When the culprit is the one-eyed turtledove, this emotion will make the Morpheus desperate as if it were the most primitive beast.
And the last time, when I saw Joan the little nun being controlled by the puppet master.
................................................................................................................................................... ………..
When the banquet of the Windsor family is about to enter a climax that no one can expect, the sacred Gabriel Empire is at its quietest moment after midnight.
Contrary to the lively banquet venues, Hera, one of the central cities of the sacred Gabriel Empire, is often quieter at this time than all other noisy cities.
Because this is a true city of faith, even the sacred Gabriel of the nation’s religion can’t find another one like Hera who has more than twelve monasteries, twenty-seven churches and three people all year round Cardinal sits in the city.
After hearing about the "Holy Fall" of the Byzantine empire, this country, which has great differences with the Patriarchal Holy Court on religious issues, seems to be showing a calm anomaly, almost meaningless to express an attitude.
Perhaps because the Holy Gabriel Empire has suffered unimaginable losses recently, to this day, more than 400 clerics have been killed, and the culprit has not even been connected-no living witness can serve the empire. Any relevant information provided by the heretical ruling, and the six teams sent by the final heretical ruling were strangled in an attitude like a shipwreck.
No one can think of it, the culprit. At the moment, he is walking lightly on the corridor of the Cathedral of San Misso.
Dark night, black robe, blood red eyes looking at the thick wooden gate, focused and full of excitement.
Ashkandi hasn’t known how long it hasn’t felt the thrill of killing. This addiction-like hobby makes her unable to extricate herself in the dark—and as the most complicated and strange dark species in history, she The existence of may be taboo for the Holy See or even the entire world.
The Basilica-style church has the appearance of a castle. The towering spires in the moonlight are faintly visible, and the reliefs are faint. The figures above are stiff and rigid in order to highlight their distance from the world. The hall is separated from the small hall, and then It is the bedroom where the clergyman lives. It is sacred and inviolable. In fact, civilians have to pray in the hall, and even the small hall at the back cannot enter. At the moment, Ashkandi pushed open the last door of the whole church.
The door of piety, this is the name of believers, because behind this is the residence of Cardinal, who is in charge of the belief in this territory.
After the door opened, Ashcandi saw a lonely burning white candle, which seemed to be because of the breeze when the door opened, and the candle light shook slightly, and then stabilized.
The three silent people stood by the candlelight, not even looking up because of this dark queen who should not have appeared in the Holy Church.
The red robe, plain, but represents an outstanding identity that cannot be ignored.
"Darkness, stop here."
One of the old men said softly that his wise eyes were slowly raised, and he looked at Ashcandy, whose black bat wings spread to the sides, without any fear.
"Hera"-This city named after the wife of Zeus, king of the gods of the ancient Siga Empire, has three Cardinals, which is a special case for the entire empire and even the mainland.
Cardinal is not a place where you can get on the board only by reading the scriptures and being good at speculation. Just like Aquinas, who once sat in the sixth giant throne of the referee, will never be a scholar who has written countless scriptures. The Cardinal here is not as simple as waiting to be cleaned up by Ashkandi.
"Let me see, four hundred years ago, the hearts of five Cardinals shattered in front of me, and one used "Ember" directly, so what will happen today?"
"Only light can chase darkness."
The answers of the three old men are simple and unique.

The line of sight turned back to the Windsor family banquet venue~IndoMTL.com~ A dramatic twist added to the banquet that should have ended peacefully, which may become a conversation for the upper class nobles throughout October.
The arrogant Justinian has always been a family that the emperor has caused headaches for the upper class nobility, because it is completely loyal to the royal family. The kind of superiority with privileges actually causes many people to be dissatisfied, but such a helpless The family has a freak-like family member. The "I" level of the strongman alone has exceeded the number of two hands. It can be said that it is extremely strong. At the age of seventeen, Sara who has obtained the intermediate knight badge is naturally the leader. ——As long as you follow the planned route planned by your family, Sara only needs to continue on this road for ten years. There is no pressure to advance to the high-level knight, and the promotion of the Holy Grail knight before the age of forty is even more hopeful. The family will never waste time on useless heirs. Since he chose to train Sarah, it certainly shows that he has something extraordinary.
It seems that his arrogance is a bit outdated today. The Justinian family is loyal to the royal family, but the Windsor family can also be regarded as a great empire for the empire. The friction between the two nobles should not be so, but Because the few frictions of the younger generation became an uncontrollable duel.
After picking up the gloves, Morpheus looked at the Duke Acar and the current patriarch of the Justinian family who came to hear the news, and still maintained the smile, but the smile at the corner of the mouth became colder-the negative emotions of people There is a range of tolerance. From signing a contract with Ashcandi to killing members of the Inquisition, the depression and resentment in the heart along the way said that it is not absolutely impossible. Sara, who did not have long eyes, proposed it at this suitable time. A way for him to vent his life in a fair and honest way. Speaking of which, Morpheus really feels a relief.
"Since this is the case, follow the rules of the Cavaliers."
