Reborn Ancient Western Europe
Chapter 31 Prom
Lord Yemoore, Somerset, and Gray have seen each other before.
He seems to have some friendship with Gray's grandfather.When Gray just came to this world and was in the worst physical condition, he once came to visit Gray.Although Ge Rui's impression of him was already very vague, but he recognized him the first time he saw him again.
Because, on this man's face, there is a long scar.From the left side of the forehead, across the eyebrows, all the way through the entire right cheek.When he opened his mouth to speak, his entire face would become hideous, looking extremely frightening.
But in fact, he is a shy and introverted person.When facing Princess Hai Na, he became visibly nervous and looked away awkwardly, not daring to look directly at her.
"I'm very glad that Your Highness the Princess is here in Yemool City. It's an honor for all of us." He stammered his compliments in a blunt tone, and it was obvious that he was reciting a script.
Princess Heina didn't take it seriously, she smiled, took his hand and entered the ball hall.Summerster looked back at Gray, as if he wanted to say something.Gray smiled at him and shook his head slightly.
Somerset smiled back, even though it was a friendly smile distorted by the scars on his face to the point of terror.
Gray didn't have much interest in dancing. After Princess Henna finished the opening dance with the Santo, he took a plate of fruit salad and hid in the shadow of the stairs.Summerster probably explained some things to other people in advance, so no one came forward to chat with him.
Except for Eudora, she has been following Grey almost every step of the way since just now.
Gray looked at her and couldn't help asking: "Eudora, aren't you going to dance?"
Eudora is actually very beautiful, she didn't dress up specially today, she was still wearing her usual clothes.Different from Princess Heina's lofty beauty, she looks like an orchid blooming in a deep valley. Although she is cold-tempered, she looks cute in her own way.
Yudora didn't speak, but raised her arm, revealing a small dagger tied to her wrist.
It was only then that Gray remembered that although Udora did not belong to the Holy Batriders, she was actually a member of the guards.Moreover, she is responsible for the security of Princess Heina's carriage.
Gray looked towards the lively hall.In the center of the dance floor, Princess Heina is dancing with another unknown nobleman.She was smiling, and her skirt undulated with the dance steps, causing circles of ripples.Angus was standing on the edge of the dance floor, his face half turned sideways, his expression unclear.
"During the day." Udora said suddenly, "I saw you and Angus."
Gray lowered his head, took a bite of an apple slice, and didn't answer.
"Angus probably told you that Princess Hana was once a candidate for the saint?" She continued, "Although Angus and I are both members of the temple, we have different affiliations."
She paused and said: "Although I have no obligation to tell you these things. But as a member of the Tislandi family, if you don't even know these things, it would be too ridiculous."
What Eudora said was part of the history about the origin of the temple.That was the period when various countries recuperated and developed peacefully after the war with the devil was over.
"There will probably be records similar to 'The Last Christmas Eve' in history, because immediately following this history is the World of Annihilation." She smiled mockingly, and continued: "After the World of Annihilation, The empire began to truly establish its supremacy and acquired most of the ownership of this land. However, the temple has also become a thorn in its heart."
Gray also knew about this period of history.The group of people who gathered together at first came from different countries and each had different identities.It is only because they have a common enemy that they are united, fighting side by side, and relying on life and death.
And later, shortly after the end of the war, they discovered painfully that their former comrades-in-arms became enemies overnight.
This is where the confusion begins.
"The world of annihilation lasted for about 20 years. When everything became a foregone conclusion and was irreversible. The group of people who first built the temple made a decision." Yudora lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "They decided , abandoning their own country."
War is extremely cruel, but the flower of friendship that blooms in this cruel background has a strength that ordinary people can't imagine.In the battles with demons time and time again, in the life and death experience time and time again, those who put their backs on themselves are reluctant to give up no matter what.
Therefore, even if you abandon your own country, even if you bear the name of uncleanness from then on, you have no choice but to draw your sword against your former companions.
The empire rewrote this period of history, claiming that they had fulfilled their respective missions and retired to the world. Only when the door of the devil was opened again and the devil came again, the heroes would reappear.
"Eudora!"
Angus also came to them at some point, looking at Eudora with a bad expression.
"Don't say those superfluous words!" he warned.
Udora sneered and said, "He will know sooner or later."
She dropped these words, walked out of the corner, came to the edge of the dance floor, took over Angus's position, and alerted the crowd around Princess Hana.
Gray watched her leave thoughtfully, frowning slightly.
Angus was silent for a while, then said with difficulty: "Gerry, about the temple..."
Gray finally raised his head and glanced at him with an indescribable indifference in his eyes.
"I know." He said, "My surname is Tislandi, so I know what Yudora wants to say."
That is nothing more than the relationship between the temple and the empire, like the tip of a needle.The empire's ambitions are too great, and it has long since been involuntary.And the temple, also inherited the glory it was established at the beginning, clinging to its Ling Ran status, refusing to back down.
Be it the Holy Batriders or the Saintess, it is the end of a collision of forces between the two sides.
Although the Holy Batriders are appointed to protect the safety of the emperor, they are actually loyal to the temple.He is a sharp sword hanging over the emperor's head in the temple, and it may fall at any time.The saint, on the other hand, directly divided up half of the power of the temple, and has the ability to influence any decision of the temple.
It's a balance that stands in the middle of a double-edged sword.Both sides risked their lives, licking blood on the tip of the knife, and refused to take a step back.
Princess Heina failed to become the saint of the temple, this balance has actually been broken long ago.The Empire will never let the Holy Batriders stay in their confidantes.
It is a very irrational thing for Gray to get involved with Angus, the captain of the Holy Batrider, under the shining halo of the heir of the Tislandi family.
Gray actually knew all of this.He's just, tired.He had never, ever felt so tired.
All people are like this, and in an instant it becomes so complicated that he doesn't want to touch it.Everyone has their own secrets, and everyone has their own obsessions.Their future is in front of them, even if it is a dead end, they know where to go in the next second.
Only Gray, he doesn't care about anything, he just wants to live, live to the end.Then either go back to your own world, or die.He didn't want to be fettered with this world, he was too tired, besides, Mu Xiao was still waiting for him to go back.
Angus made him feel dangerous, and he felt that the barrier he had been trying to maintain was slowly being broken.In his eyes, Gray is Gray without any additional identity or memory.
What he saw was his real self.
This is too dangerous.
"Angus, for the sake of being your savior." Gray sighed, and said in a pleading tone: "Stay away from me, it's better for everyone."
Angus looked at him, his face turned cold.
"Have you said this to Prince Grace?" He looked at Gray and asked coldly.
"It doesn't matter." Gray sighed, "As long as..."
He was halfway through his sentence when suddenly there was a woman screaming and there was chaos on the dance floor.Among the panic-stricken crowd, Yudora knelt on the ground clutching her stomach, and blood kept seeping through her fingers and dripping onto the floor.
Princess Heina stood behind her with a dull expression, and there was a little scarlet on the light blue dress.
