Sere's words made Tasia fall into deep thought, and after a while she whispered:
"There are no problems with His Majesty Mathias's administration at the moment."
"Probably, let's not talk about it. Now, what do you want from me?"
Tasia blinked.
“Can’t I be by your side if nothing happens?”
"It just doesn't suit your personality."
"I received internal information."
When talking about internal information, a mysterious look appeared on Tasia's little face expression.
"The Soshyan Alexei Chapter Commander is coming."
Sere raised his eyebrows.
"Seriously?"
"Nine times out of ten."
"Well, I saw news a few months ago that the Maelstrom expedition led by the Astral Knights was a complete victory. This warrior The leader led the imperial army to defeat an extremely powerful heretical force, and also went to Terra to receive an award from the High Lords Council. If you can see such a legend, you will be truly lucky. If you can stand side by side with such a leader My father often told me about the deeds of Grand Duke Olga leading his family and the war group to fight together, especially the battle on the Piercing Star, which was a direct confrontation with the most powerful heretical group, the Black Legion. Led by the terrible traitor, but even such heretics are scurrying under the wings of Greyhawk. I dreamed countless times that I participated in the siege of Attica, sitting in the mechanical throne, destroying a group of people with cannon fire. A group of heretical enemies."
As he spoke, he smacked his lips with unsatisfied thoughts.
“It’s such a pity to miss such a battle. I feel heartbroken when I think that I have at least four years before I can become a knight and participate in the battle.”
"No wonder they all call you a fighter, but why didn't the family participate in this Maelstrom expedition?"
"It's probably because the number of people is too small and it won't have much effect. I heard that this expedition is still "Titan Legion is involved"
At this time, the team was about to enter the inner city of the capital, which is the aristocratic district. This is also the only place in the city with a protective wall. When the team entered the shooting range of automatic defense weapons, The horn at the top of the huge alloy door rang loudly, and then the door slowly opened.
There are eighteen such doors, but the nobles have become accustomed to using flying tools to leave the city rather than passing through the "civilian area", so these doors are rarely used.
Just when the door was completely opened, there was a rush of hooves. Ten students turned their heads and saw another loose group rushing out from the street. They were also students of the Knight Academy, dressed in various colors. Exaggerated clothes in various colors, their bodies decorated with beautiful precious metal ornaments and gems, and everyone has a sword at their waist.
The leader is a big man, wearing a black knight uniform with a large number of black pearls arranged in rows and engraved with complicated scorpion patterns. His skin shows a healthy bronze color, his face is cold, and his eyes are narrowed into slits. As if pressed together by his eyebrows, his chin is narrow and pointed, and his yellow hair is tied back.
The beast of burden he rides on is quite huge, and is also covered in armor with shining golden rings.
When the man saw Tasia, he showed an unabashed greedy expression, and Tasia immediately had disgust written on her face.
When he came to the door, the man raised one hand and ordered his followers to stand still. Then he pulled the reins fiercely and drove the beasts of burden to face Sere and his party on the opposite side.
He held down his sword and raised his chin slightly, looking like an out-and-out prince. The guards guarding near the gate bowed to him, and he looked at him with appropriate contempt. Looking at everyone on the opposite side. Gonzalo Dupondlin, the second son of the Archduke Offor, the second most powerful person in the family, is also an extremely cruel and shameless scumbag that Serre knows. It is hard to imagine that this guy who is 1.8 meters tall is only fifteen years old. A year ago, he broke into a small businessman's home at night and stole his twin daughters, who were said to be very beautiful and only fourteen or fifteen years old. The businessman tried to find a law enforcement agency to report the crime the next day, but was found dead tragically in an alley.
Half a year later, the poor twins were found hanging next to their father's grave, and both had signs of miscarriage -
However, Serret secretly heard this from his father at night. I only learned something when I complained to my mother. The adopted sons of Grand Duke Olga may have no problem fighting, but they were all orphans in the past. They suddenly had huge power, which made many people feel lost. They did not learn the responsibilities of the nobility. They have a set of rules, and because of their tragic childhood experiences, they are generally very tolerant of their children, even to the point of indulgence. For this reason, they even used the strange theory that I am a hero and my son is a hero.
Gonzalo is the most typical example and the consequences. He did such evil things, but in the end he was only given twenty symbolic lashes. This was also Serre's response to the Supreme King Madi. One thing that Yas is dissatisfied about is that no matter what achievements Grand Duke Offor has had, he should not be so extrajudicial. This even loses the most basic justice of the knight!
Sere reined in his beast of burden and blocked Gonzalo's aggressive sight with his body. This bastard had been flattering Tasia and was still stalking him. If it weren't for Tasia is the apple of the eye of Count Edson, who is also powerful in the family. This guy may not be so "gentle".
"Cotton boy."
Gonzalo frowned rudely, and did not even say Sere's name. He was extremely arrogant.
"I want to talk to Ms. Tasia, please move your vile body away."
Sere ignored it completely.
“Are you deaf?”
Serre turned around pretending to be surprised, pointed at the beast of burden under Gonzalo, and said to Tasia:
“Oh my God, I thought it was talking.”
"You are looking for death! Cotton boy!"
The angry Gonzalo clanged and tried to pull out his sword.
“Are you sure?”
Cere was undeterred and an unpleasant smile appeared on his face.
"I said after the last duel, I will not show mercy the second time. As long as you dare to draw a sword towards me, I will cut off your hand. I will not be as gentle as your father." Yes, Gonzalo."
Gonzalo tensed his muscles instantly, holding the scabbard with one hand and grabbing the hilt with the other hand, and most of the sword had been drawn out.
Sere stared at him coldly.
"Are you sure? If you are sure, then throw your glove over, I will catch it, and then one of us will fall in a pool of blood, ushering in an ending worthy of the status of a knight. ”
His voice was still a little immature like that of a 14-year-old boy, but his murderous intent was as strong as a rock.
This is not a bluff, Sere has indeed killed someone. One day not long after his 13th birthday, he encountered a robbery while going shopping in the city. Two robbers beat one. The woman tried to snatch her bag away. They carried knives, but knights and nobles could also carry deadly weapons in the city. Cere first shot one person to death, and then picked the other person to death with a sword.
Therefore, everyone in the academy knew that he had killed someone. Although death was not a rare scene for these noble children, there were very few who had actually killed someone themselves.
Now Gonzalo was in trouble. Everyone was looking at him, but he clenched his teeth and froze in the saddle, like a statue. The hand holding the sword hilt was trembling slightly. It seemed that the touch of the opponent's sword edge against his neck had returned.
