"Model...model leader? This is not a good idea."
After the Paladin left, the old man Kipling thought that everyone needed to get together and discuss this important matter. So the training stopped and everyone gathered in the castle hall and sat around the long table. Feige read the documents printed with the model's related matters, and everyone passed the ritual description of the Great Prophecy. The monster hunters in each Ice Peak Fortress could speak equally. Eddie and Pengpeng brought everyone some food and sat next to listen.
Mom put the chewed chicken leg bone on the table, smeared the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and then said, "Look for monsters in the mountains and then kill them, or help the farmers in the village find lost sheep, or even deliver cattle and horses. We are all familiar with these. You can obtain a piece of territory and then manage it. This is the matter of the noble lord, who knows?"
Tron, Wumama and Ramsden looked at Fitch.
"Don't look at me, I don't, I can't do it, I may not be as good as Eddie." Feige shook his head: "I can't even control myself. I still need Eddie's care. Can you trust such a person?"
"But Master, you have taken courses, and they were conducted together with the alchemy course. Your lord class must always be excellent, and the alchemy teacher that the Count master found for you."
"Is this true?" Feiqi looked in his memory, but couldn't find the course content. Instead, he used alchemy potion to make poison, and then threatened Baron Jansen, who was responsible for taking the lord class, and asked him to always give himself an excellent rating. It was a memory that was so unbearable to look back on. Master Hall really left a magical start.
"After the model leader was established, can we become knights?" Tron swallowed and said, "I can't be a lord, but it's okay to be a knight. In the end, no matter whether it's Giles, Mommy, Ssina or Feich, you can be a lord."
"Why don't you talk about Lord Kelly?" Wumama muttered, and Tron kicked him under the table.
"Don't be stupid. If we can have a lord here, we can only be Lord Kipling or Feich. Have you listened carefully to the model leader's instructions? The lord must be the priest of the goddess." Ssina glanced at Feich and hooked her finger: "Snowman, although you are the son of Count Hall, this is the Ice Peak Fortress. Do you have any objection to the Elder Kipling as the lord?"
Kelly and Giles also looked at Fitch, their eyes full of inquiries. Only Mom did not look up and hurriedly grabbed a piece of bread and ham into his plate, cut it open and chewed it in a big mouth. He seemed to be talking, but hesitated because of the food stuffed in his mouth, no one could hear it clearly.
Feiqi sighed and said slowly, "If the old man comes to be the lord, I have no objection."
"But why do I think you are not convinced?" Ssina suddenly stood up, and the flying knife on the belt was shaking. Her hand couldn't help but touched her back.
"Sit down on the ice blade! He is not the 'group' boys!" Mom squirted bread and suddenly roared. Ssina shook her body, looking at Feiqi with one eye, her eyes gradually became clear, and then she sat down slowly. The threat came and went quickly, and Feiqi was just startled.
"That group of boys" refers to a group of people who had seriously hurt Scina and left her scars. More than ten years ago, when Scina was a child and lived with her parents, a group of hunting nobles passed by their home. The group used black ram heads as family emblems, dressed up very rich, but did not even as good as robbers. Later, her family died and the family was gone. If it weren't for the elderly Kiplin passing by and reaching out for treatment, the seriously injured Scina would not have survived.
After that, she kept track of the identity and whereabouts of the group of people. But the entire Principality of Aria, including the surrounding countries, did not have the nobles with the black ram head emblem, nor did the robbers, bandits and rebels use such signs. This incident caused great trauma to Ssina, and the failure of investigation made her nervous and irritable. However, she had done something like pulling out the flying knife - it is said that Feiqi looked very much like an enemy in her memory.
Fortunately, time and age were not up to par, so he completely washed away his suspicion.
"Calm down and don't be controlled by the emotions of gain and loss." Finally, Old Man Kipling said: "You guys, can you turn your head when you speak? I don't know what you are saying if I can't see you. I only look at half of my face, but I can only know half of my words."
"Sir Snow Owl, be the Lord." Giles said.
"I can't do it. I can't cast my magic anymore, so I can't participate in the Divine View Great Prophecy ceremony. Isn't it good for Feiqi? He is very smart and performs well in the fortress. On the one hand, we won't suffer any losses as a lord, but on the other hand, this is the only choice."
"No... Lord Kipling, you must go." Feiqi looked at everyone and said in a very calm tone: "I am not shirking or deliberately humble. After watching the ceremony of the Great Prophecy, I am very sure that I cannot participate. As the priest of the Goddess of the Truth, I am not qualified. If I go, I will only help you."
"How is this possible? Your magic is very useful! Especially in the past two months of progress, I think it is better than the priests of Gujian Castle. Summoning fog, creating protective barriers, and boosting morale. Don't you know all of these?" Tron thought for a while and said, "Anyway, either Fitch or Snow Owl, you can be lords. As for whether you can be good, can you be good-I only know that you are not bad people, and you will not make the lords worse and worse, right?"
"You want to be a knight," Wumama muttered.
"Yes, I want to be a knight. No matter how good the monster hunter is, he is just a mercenary of the church, and the knight is another higher class. How can men do without land and honor?"
Feiqi understood Tron's idea, but he could not participate in the Great Prophecy ceremony. Of course, he also wanted to be the lord, that is, to control the fate of the people around him, and to turn his ideas into reality. Who wouldn't want to? For this reason, he had thought of countless plans, and countless divergent thinking exploded from his mind. However, when he watched the Great Prophecy ceremony, he felt like he was thrown into cold water.
This ceremony, a simple analogy, is a multi-party video conference constructed by divine art. By exercising efforts in the ceremony, the participants showed themselves to others, especially the Goddess of Truth, and selected six of them from the representatives of the ten "Excellent Rating Fortresses" to become one lord. Feiqi was not worried at all whether he could become a lord - because it was impossible - he was only worried that his devil's identity was exposed and then struck to death by the goddess with lightning.
No matter which aspect is considered, this possibility is the greatest or even inevitable.
"Sir Snow Owl, you still have to attend the ceremony. Even if you can't use the magic, you are more suitable than me." Feiqi was not cheating people, but thought of the sainthood of Mr. Kipling. If the goddess was in the evaluation, she would definitely favor it - and at least not be struck by lightning.
Using divine magic seals and the Holy Light Angels can get away with the Paladin, but it is called provocation in front of the goddess, and it can only die faster. Even if the goddess is kind, she will not see the devil without any attack. Even if she takes a step back, the goddess is very busy and does not appear during the ceremony, but there are at least sixteen bishops, three archbishops, and an unknown number of Knights Templars among the other participants in the ceremony. These people are staring at each candidate with wide eyes. As long as Feiqi shows his strength, there is absolutely no possibility of not being discovered.
In short, as long as the goddess appears, Feich will die; assuming that the goddess does not appear, Feich cannot show the power of the divine magic. Therefore, in the absence of the divine magic, Old Man Kipling is a better choice than Feich.
"I am more suitable than you? The Great Prophecy Ritual is very important. How can a person who cannot cast a spell? Feich, it's wrong for you to think this way." Old Man Kipling said earnestly: "I only belong to the past. I am the present, and I have no expectations except waiting for the day of death to come. The future is yours. You are the only priest of the Ice Peak Fortress, and after you become the lord, you will at least bring many benefits to everyone. Obviously, we will at least have one more Templar and the support of the Royal Earl! If you don't stand up at this time, what are you afraid of? Just be brave enough to take responsibility. We all support you, help you, and supervise you. This is no different from the past."
It is definitely a big difference to be discovered as a devil and then struck by lightning.
Feige grabbed his hair hard and then glanced at Eddie. At this time, he hoped from the bottom of his heart that the Count had made arrangements in advance and he could have a safe shortcut. However, from Eddie's eyes, he only saw confusion. The butler was wondering what he had to worry about.
"I can't participate in the Great Prophecy Ritual. I'm...I...my divine magic has problems." Feiqi shook his lips and struggled and said, "If I wanted to be a lord, if I wanted to go away from the development route of the divine priest, I wouldn't have come here at all. Templars, Royal Earl, which one of my Hall family is not better than here? Although I am the second son, I also have the right to inherit. I was going to be the next Count of Hall. Haven't you understood it yet?"
"I'll just say it." Mom had wiped out the ham and was rinsing his mouth with ale and rinsing his throat.
"Then... kid, not the Count, not the Templar, nor the priest, what do you want?" Old man Kipling sighed softly, and then slowly said: "Don't say it's alchemy. Since he came to the Ice Peak Fortress, the set of alchemy tools have been accumulating dust and have never been used. kids, it doesn't matter what they don't want. It doesn't matter if they abandon the Count, there's nothing knight or divine art. As long as you can understand what you want, it's worth it."
"I can't find what I want in this world," Fitch said. "At least so far, I haven't found a second way to help me find it. What I want is magic, powerful magic, magic that can change the world. Therefore, I can't show up in front of the goddess."
