Camellia camellia

Chapter5

Mirja took a sip of water, then poured the rest on her hands, and the crystal water droplets sprinkled on the grass, soaking the soil into a dark color.At this time, a clean handkerchief was handed to her. She raised her head and met a pair of bright eyes. The young lady naturally remembered her, a maid named Fendi.After she simply thanked her, the maid blushed and ran away.

Mirjia smiled wryly and folded the handkerchief and put it aside. There are some things that must be returned.

She subconsciously touched the pendant hanging around her neck, only this was her most precious.She tightened the belt of the leather breastplate, and readjusted the position of the belt. After everything was ready, she set her eyes on the girl not far away.

Camelia, her lover, to whom she swore eternal allegiance.

It is the ignorant age of 19, beautiful as a flower blooming in the morning, with the enthusiasm and vitality unique to a half-mature girl, like a dazzling sun, burning with light and heat to its heart's content.And she, from the beginning, has been attracted by her unique charm, like a traveler who just came from the cold winter, curled up in her arms, eagerly longing for the warmth given by the fire.

In the name of love, I have been absorbing it all the time, and it will take a lifetime to repay such affection.

She has made up her mind, so she must be protected at all costs.

The girl in the seat noticed this unusual gaze, and she met her eyes, showing a knowing smile.

Mirjia blushed suddenly, she quickly turned her head away, gathered her fallen hair behind her ears, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Her opponent in the second bout was clearly ready.The black-haired, black-eyed boy was resting his left hand between his eyebrows, looking at the sky in a daze, Mirjia followed her gaze, but there was nothing.She looked back at the boy suspiciously, and the boy seemed to have noticed something, turned his face sideways, his eyes were very bright, and he parted the corner of his mouth to show her a big smile.Mirka was startled, but recovered instantly.

Yes, even so, her heart will not fluctuate a bit, because her sword is already in her hand.

After Tantroni's signal, the competition has already begun.

"Knight Mirador, what do you think?" Camelia covered her chin with a backhanded colored feather fan, revealing only a pair of blue eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

The knight frowned, thinking as if in great pain, seemed to be difficult to answer, hesitating again and again before answering: "Your Highness, needless to say, the winner must be Heijin...Master Mirga, but if this is just It’s hard to say if it’s a trial. In my opinion, the purpose of the reindeer must be to test whether it has the ability to protect you, but if you judge it based on this point, the scope is very wide, and naturally it is not limited to swordsmanship.” He looked at Camelia: "For example, the ability to judge emergencies, rescue capabilities, and cooperation with teammates can all be included in this scope. But... the most important thing is 'willpower'."

Camelia nodded, motioning for him to continue.

"It can also be said to be toughness, just like a big tree is dead but not stiff. Even at the last moment, it must desperately fulfill its promise. To a certain extent, it is also a manifestation of chivalry in one aspect. And that kid ...his purpose is clear, it's in his eyes."

Hearing what he said, Camelia looked at the black-haired boy's face.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Jerian, who was fighting against Mirga, and Camelia was a little dazed, as if the two shadows on the field seemed to overlap.As if she had found a new land, she looked at the two people meaningfully, with similar stature and slender body.Even the women in the Dulumian family were tall and outstanding. In addition, she had been training intensively since she was a child. Her body was strong and firm, and she could hardly pick out a single bit of excess fat.Even after giving birth, the figure recovers quite quickly.And Jerian was growing his body. Although he was not outstanding among men, his youthful body was always extraordinarily slender and beautiful before he fully developed into a man.

The same black eyes.

Seeing the two wrestling figures, Camelia seemed a little dazed.

Yes, I almost forgot, didn't I make an exception and let him join the guards because of those persistent black eyes, and asked the swordsman Fan to teach him swordsmanship?In fact, this has nothing to do with the begging of his father, the cook who has served Camellia's family for many years, but just because he is very similar to her.

Especially his eyes, very much like her lover, the highest knight of the Black Gold Moon, Mirjatila.

She shook her head, and laughed softly as if talking to herself: "I will, let her be by my side all the time."

Miranduo, who was sitting next to her, naturally heard it, and he didn't say anything. Although he didn't like these rumors, there were some things that didn't mean that if you closed your ears, he wouldn't let them come in.Before, he had vaguely heard some gossip between their beautiful and noble Camellia Patriarch and Black Gold Moon Knight, but how could it be possible for two little girls?Even he was amused by his own strange thoughts.

Miranduo shook his head, the momentum on the field was very intense, he fixed his eyes on that person, Mirjatila, a person who gave up the honor of the highest knight and married into the distant branch of Camellia's family.As a knight, how can you not care about honor? As a knight, how can you forget the original clank oath?What's more, she was also the one who was watched by the king.

I don't understand, how can a woman's mind understand.

If there is a chance, I want to fight her, but not now.As a pregnant woman who is still breastfeeding, I can't do anything at all.However, she has a very high heart, and she dared to fight against the two of them only by virtue of her superb skills.It seems that it may not be so boring in the future.

Mirja swung her sword falsely, relying only on the strength of her arms and the flexibility of her body to hold Jerian in a dead position where it was difficult to advance or retreat. The boy blushed and tried to push her away with all his strength, but the female knight nimbly followed closely , making it very difficult for Jerian to even step back. The moment she breathed a sigh of relief, he seized the opportunity to jump back.With a turn of Mirjia's sword, the saber drew a sword flower on the boy's chest. Jerian turned to one side, and she turned into a T-step to stabilize her figure and stab.The black-haired boy was a little flustered, he clenched his lips, in such an urgent situation, he had no time to think, he could only rely on his body's reaction to take the move, and then seized the fleeting flaws to fight back, of course this The proportion is very low.How could the reindeer, who had always relied on dexterity as its advantage, give him a chance?When the boy knelt and raised his sword for the final struggle, Mirjia borrowed his strength, but he couldn't bear the sword's tilt, and drew a long bloodstain on the palm of his left hand.

The female knight frowned, which deviated slightly from her previous plan.

So she withdrew her gesture and stretched out her hand, trying to help the boy up.

"...I can continue." The boy struggled to stand up.

"I understand what you mean, but let's stop here." The female knight took off her bow tie, walked up to him, held up the injured palm, and after skillfully bandaging it, she raised her head and asked, "Who is your mentor?" Calant?"

The boy nodded reluctantly.

"Your heart is strong, but your blade doesn't know where to point. Find some imaginary enemies who can confront you, people who are like you or better than you. Some things you need to understand are you practicing alone You will never be able to understand it, and no one else can tell you about it, so you can only understand it yourself." She said calmly, "You need to find more friends."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving only the boy standing there, watching her back gradually move away.

At the table, the beautiful hostess couldn't help but hurriedly followed.

Under the arrangement of Irina, everyone restored the venue to its original state.

At this time, the young man was patted heavily on the shoulder, and when he turned around, it turned out to be a knight lord whom he had never seen before.

"I heard what the reindeer said to you, and she is right. Maybe, you will want to go with us. Although I can't promise you anything, but if you want an opponent—" He glanced at him A few young knights not far away. "They might want to have a fight with the disciple of the swordsman."

Those people turned around and greeted them.

"I'm Thompson Mirador, the captain of Thalia's [-]st Cavalry, playing for the Camellia family."

"It is a great honor, sir. My name is Jerry Ann Fryerson, the guard at Mirror Lake Manor."

***********

Milja felt someone behind her, she stopped and turned around.

Camelia was walking towards her.

When she stood in front of her, Mirja asked indifferently: "I haven't seen Katie recently."

No, this is not the tone of the inquiry.

Camelia didn't speak, just looked at her with her blue eyes like the stars in the night.

Mirjia sighed and softened her voice: "If something like this happens again in the future, even if you don't discuss it with me, please tell me. Camelia, I will respect your judgment."

【Because I believe in you. 】

The curly-haired girl slightly raised the corners of her mouth and threw herself into her arms.

"This is the result of my deliberation." She buried her face in her warm bosom, and said coquettishly: "But, my little deer, I know I was wrong. I promise you, if there is anything in the future, I'll tell you what I think in advance. So—" She blinked and asked, "Can you do what I say for me?"

Although Mirga had a straight face, Camelia could tell that she was indeed not angry.

"When I saw Jerian I knew why you chose him. I'm not stupid, Camelia, because you need a pawn that is loyal and unobtrusive, and Quinya is in It is a compromise that you have to make after this choice. This is also the reason why you cannot use Tantroni, and if you reason like this, my scope of action is also in your plan, right?"

Camelia nodded: "Should I say that I am indeed the Black Gold Moon Reindeer? It is really commendable. You are right. First, I want to protect your safety. Second, I need manpower. The third reason is that ..."

"You have a mouth that must be shut," Mirja said.

"You're right." Camelia raised her eyebrows, indicating that she was right at all, and she showed an expression of no need to worry. "Eldest sister, my lord will protect us."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere gradually eased.

Mirjia stroked her long hair, and Camelia raised her head to look at her. The heroic spirit on Mirjia's brows was gradually shrouded in the halo of maternal nature. She looked at her soft and gentle appearance, and suddenly a feeling rose in the heart of the Grand Duchess. Feeling an inexplicable heat, she looked at her lover with bewildered eyes, closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pink lips were slightly opened, like flower petals thirsting for moisture.

She kissed her without any surprise.

"Similarly, I also hope that you can respect my choice." Mirjia said silently in her heart.

The gears of fate have begun to turn.
