In the cold wind, there was a figure standing in front of the departing knight squad. He was wearing a silver robe and a strange silver mask. Behind the mask was pure black hair, which is quite rare on the British island. There was an indescribably cold feeling in this snowy weather, so the knights stopped moving forward.

"Who are you?" It was still the nominal captain of the team who came out to question, as if the other knights could not speak except him, "Why are you blocking us, there are so many people waiting for us to deliver food in front of you?" Village, do you know what a great mission we have on our shoulders?"

The silver figure didn't move, he just stood there blankly, stretching out his hand as if trying to catch the snow falling from the sky.

The knight captain frowned, and the guy in front of him vaguely gave him a bad feeling, but when he thought that there were so many elites behind him, so many knights sent by the adult to protect him, his confidence suddenly became stronger. It surged up.

"I'll warn you one last time. You are maliciously blocking us from carrying out our mission. If you don't get out of the way, we won't be polite anymore."

He didn't speak, and like the group of knights behind him, the figure in front of him was like a dumb man who didn't say a word.

"Hmph! First it was that stinky woman with a sick brain, and now there is a dumb dumb person who doesn't know what to do. Today is really lucky." He took a bite on the snow, and a ferocious smile appeared on the face of the captain of the knight. , "Alright, just to let go of the bad breath I just received. In such a remote place, no one will care even if there are more corpses?"

"Rush me!"

Following the order of the knight captain, the knight squad of more than [-] people became restless, the sound of horseshoes sounded, and pieces of snowflakes splashed.

"Hahaha! Turn it into meat sauce for me!"

On the leading horse, the knight captain's face twisted unnaturally, betrayed his teammates, betrayed the country, and the humiliation of being forced to kneel again and again has completely broken him, that weird figure is right there A few meters away, he could almost see how he was trampled by the horse's hooves and howled after a few seconds, but these few seconds were surprisingly long.

"What! What's going on!"

This space was stopped, the horses stopped charging forward, the hands of the knights holding the reins could no longer wave, even the snowflakes stopped in the air as if locked, and the world a few meters away was still as usual It was running, but the space where the few people were was silent.

And the guy dressed in silver and white walked towards him step by step.

"It's that guy!"

Almost instantly, the Cavalier Captain identified the culprit that caused the current situation.

"Wait! Wait a minute!" Seeing the figure who should have been crushed to death by him as if nothing happened, the knight captain began to panic, "I! We have no malicious intentions, really, we just want to go around you, please You trust us!"

The silver figure still didn't speak, but this time, his silence was more like a silent reminder. He walked very slowly, not because he couldn't go faster, but he seemed to prefer the way the enemy's face is distorted in fear like now , one step... one step... Even if it was such a slow pace, in the eyes of the captain of the knight, it was extremely fast. It was only a blink of an eye, and he walked in front of himself. The eyes exposed under the mask were naked. Killing intent.

"I am a knight of Britain, I have a glorious mission, you can't kill me!"

He growled, and the saliva he spewed was frozen in the air, but what was exposed in those eyes remained unchanged.

"Don't..." Fear crawled over the captain's heart like ants. The feeling that his life was being held in someone else's hands made his breathing quicken again. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything. He imagined I used to kneel down and beg for mercy like that, but I found that even this has become a luxury.

The silver figure took out a dagger from his waist. The dagger was very ordinary, the kind that could be bought with a few copper coins, but it was this simple dagger that made the knight captain's face covered with scars. The shadow of despair.

"No...no...don't!"

His voice was trembling, and his eyes were fixed on the dagger in the silver figure's hand, waiting for it to be inserted into his chest the next second, or the next second.

"I said... from just now, you have been so noisy."

The knight captain was taken aback. If he heard correctly just now, the figure who was playing with the dagger seemed to have spoken. He scratched his ears impatiently, and responded to his prayer in a rather boring tone.

"My lord, I..."

Just when he was about to say something, a silver light flashed in front of his eyes, so he saw it, saw the crime he had committed, like a marquee.

"Ah... so he is not dumb."

These were the last words that popped out of Cavalier Captain's mind. When his head fell into the snow, he had already lost the ability to think and turned into a pile of useless protein.

"Then the traitor to Britain is dead, and now..."

Flicking the blood stains on the dagger, the silver figure looked sideways at the knights behind him. I don't know if it was an illusion, but there seemed to be a strange smile on the mask.

"It's your turn."

……

When Lily walked out of the town in a daze, it was almost dark, and the three of Caville were still standing there waiting for her.

"Welcome back, Lily."

Goodbye is just a shallow smile.

"Why, teacher?"

Walking step by step to Cavel's side, Lily slammed into her teacher's arms and grabbed his clothes tightly.

"Why didn't you warn me about the bread problem earlier, if you had said earlier, they might not have to die!"

"Because they're broken." Cavel put his arms around the girl gently, "It's so bad that even every organ has rotted, you can't save them, so I didn't want you to know about it Yes, it will only make you feel bad."

"But they are the people of Britain."

Lily was buried in his arms, and Caville could feel that the girl did not shed tears, maybe she had become very strong, or maybe she had shed tears a long time ago.

"Melin, father, and you all said that I will be the future king of Britain, but as the king, I can only watch my people fall, unable to save, unable to save, and even have no chance of saving , Let alone the king, I have not even fulfilled the duty of a knight to protect the people."

"It's not your fault." Caville looked at the town, which was a dead town in every sense, "They were already dead before we came, and it's just that their bodies can still linger on like before. Because of the instinct of survival, even 1 loaves of bread cannot exchange for what has been lost."

Lily already understood what they lost, but she still didn't understand why she couldn't help them find what they lost.

"Because you are not someone who can walk into their hearts, so of course it is impossible to open their closed hearts. With food so precious, everything you say will only be regarded as lies by them, even if you are aware of the truth. people who would convince themselves it was a lie."

"why?"

"Because they have lost everything, it may be a relief for them to die without pain." Caville patted Lily on the head, "So we just need to watch them quietly. Sometimes someone will grieve for them, and it must be luck that they didn't even think about."

Is it consolation?Cavill doesn't know that although he considers himself a partner of justice, he hasn't felt guilty for not being able to save the dead. He understands that girls will feel sad, but he can't feel that sadness, but Lily is now The haggard appearance made him feel a little depressed.

Lily stopped talking, and Caville waited for her quietly without any extra words.

"Teacher." After a long time, Lily raised her head, her eyes were red, even she who has always been strong would sometimes cry for something, "I want to save them."

"It can't be saved." Carville replied.

"No." The girl rubbed her eyes fiercely, as if she wanted to hide her fragility, "I'm not talking about the people in this town, but other people who are as desperate as them, I want them to regain their Hope, I can feel happy because I live in Britain. So teacher, please teach me!"

Cavel was taken aback. If he heard correctly, Lily was asking for help from him now, so he laughed, a happy smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Of course, I am your teacher, as long as you want to learn, I will teach you."

"Then teacher, please teach me how to get into the hearts of the people, how to make them trust me and rely on me, how to..."

"How can I read people's hearts?"
