king game

The two fought for a while.It's not so much a fight, it's better to say that Arthur is constantly attacking. He tried his best to get close to this man, and wanted to use his sword to leave marks on his body, but in fact, he It was the other party who kept giving him pain and hurt.

There were bruises on his arms, and his chest was trembling from the horizontal sword. He was repelled by this man several times, and his wrists were trembling unconsciously. Once again holding the sword and attacking there, he seemed to have a kind of resilience, which supported him and refused to give up no matter what.

Stand up again when you lose!Stand up again!What is failure?He was just the most insignificant farmer's son, he was never afraid of failure, if he was really willing to accept his fate, on that night, after he overheard his parents going to kill him When he sold it to the lord, he would not be desperate and just take a pair of shoes and half a loaf of bread, and just escape from that village in a hurry overnight.

Does he know what he will encounter in the future?Did he have any plans for his future?No!The "village" life he has lived for more than ten years can't give him the experience to plan for the future, but he knows that if he does nothing, maybe someone will pull him towards the mountain in the early morning of the next day. Walking to the castle, the family's farm work has come to an end, and when there is no urgent need for work, it is the time when he is most dangerous.

And the environment he is in now is not at all better than that night.He didn't know anything about all these developments, but at least he understood that many of the great lords he had never met before had already stood on the opposite side of him. Among them, the hostility The most profound one was the Lord of Northumberland who mocked him that day.

"Have you never had enough to eat?" Sir Ulface roared: "What about your strength! What about your eyesight! Well, what kind of eyes are you? Are you trying to kill me?! "

After roaring here, he actually felt a little bit of satisfaction. A smile appeared on his face, but he waved his hand mercilessly again. He reprimanded loudly: "Hold your sword tightly! In the strength When you are not as strong as your opponent, you must learn to protect yourself first, and then wait for the opportunity to find the enemy's loopholes!"

"Your sword must strike at places where the enemy's armor cannot protect, such as the neck, ankles, and eyes!" The knight with wrinkles at the corners of his eyes said loudly: "When you meet a full suit that is protected to the point that there is no seam Armed enemies, you have to learn to control the horses under your crotch, you don't need to charge with a spear if you have a magic sword, but you have to learn to use it to the maximum."

The experienced knight finally said: "What you have to do is to control that magic sword, not be controlled by that magic sword!"

After finishing speaking, he slashed again, and Senhan's sword suddenly stopped between Arthur's brows. The sharp cold air on it made Arthur's hairs stand on end. He swallowed, feeling the pain brought by death. Fear made his pupils constrict, and he supported his body with the sword in his hand... This time, he did not throw away the weapon in his hand.

into the night.

The palace left by the previous generation of kings was very empty. The gray stone cast such a magnificent and tall castle. When the iron gate was pushed open, a huge tapestry with golden mane-haired lions hung in the hall, burning blazingly. Even the burning stove couldn't dispel the chill of the night. Soldiers on patrol walked through the passage outside, their iron boots stepping on the ground, and there was a hollow echo.

The second floor that goes up is the place where the owner of the castle rests. Because Arthur has not really ascended the throne of the king, he now lives in the adjacent side hall.This was supposed to be the room where the king's children lived, but now it belonged to him.

The living room was pitch black, a corner of the soft and brand-new quilt was lifted, and the bed that was supposed to be used for sleeping was empty. In the corner opposite to the bed, a thin figure was sitting there huddled and squatting for a long time. , the shadow remained motionless, almost making people think that they had misread it.

There was silence all around, and there was an arched window sill on the north side of the house, through which the moonlight shone in and reflected on the floor like falling silver.Someone knocked on the door, and the sound of "Duk Tuk" rang twice. Seeing that there was no movement inside, she pushed the door open and walked in from the outside.

The faint candlelight followed, and Arthur hid in the darkness and looked up, only to see the smiling face of the maid in the daytime.She changed into a long loose dress tonight, and her long hair was tied to one side. She walked slowly in front of Arthur and bent down in front of him. Under the dim light, the two faced each other.

"I thought you were asleep." In the silence, the maid spoke first.She was not afraid of life, so she sat directly next to Arthur, and the skirt at her feet fell to the ground, stained with a small amount of dust.

Arthur opened his mouth, and he said slowly, "May I ask why you're here?"

As he got closer, he realized that the pupils of the maid in front of him were a kind of translucent emerald green, and she was sitting beside him, as if there was an aura of vegetation emanating from there.This is a very strange person. Although she is a maid, he feels that she is more noble than everyone in this castle. There is a mystery hidden in her, and this mystery also makes her look particularly charming.

"Have you practiced long today under the sword of Ulpheus?" she asked.

Arthur's language was a bit bitter: "Unfortunately, my performance should not be very good."

"His evaluation of you is not very good." Without any basis, the instructor was facing such a novice who didn't understand anything, but he needed to train him out before the registration day came. , Natural means are too hasty.The maid didn't defend him, she said instead: "But I am quite optimistic about you. I think you have done better than most people. I think you have the potential to become a strong person."

"...Is it just potential?" Arthur murmured.

The maid smiled, and she brushed the hair around her ears, comforting: "Don't belittle yourself, if you know how many lives that magic sword has swallowed up for so many years, you will know how special you are ..."

Arthur was startled suddenly, and he remembered what he had suddenly recalled during that time, and he already had a vague guess—before he was five years old, he might have lived in other places for a period of time.

The maid noticed his strangeness, and she didn't ask any more questions. She knew that some things were not so easy to ask, so she showed a very warm smile: "I came here this time to help you solve some little things you left during the day. question……"

She stretched out a finger of her right hand, "Look here." Her voice became ethereal, as if separated by a layer of mist, it came from a distance in an unknown direction.

Arthur couldn't help but be attracted by her fingertips, and then, a strong green light burst out in his sight, which emanated from her fingers, and at the same time, he heard A short and inexplicable syllable spit out from her mouth, like "chu", or "ku", or "cu", mixed with obvious trills.Then, he felt that his body was covered with a thin layer of gauze, brushing against his skin like running water.

"This is..." Arthur completely forgot even his heavy heart before, he stared wide-eyed, looking at this strange scene in amazement, he felt the pain he had suffered during the day in such a scene Under the light, it has gradually healed, and the painful bruise has returned to its original state. He suddenly turned his head to the direction of the man, and his blue eyes were shining brightly.

The maid obviously sensed his excitement and curiosity, and the smile on her face seemed to be a little more gentle. She joked: "It seems that you are not very afraid of such devil's methods."

Arthur's eyes widened. At this moment, he showed a little innocence and fearlessness that a teenager should have. He was really puzzled: "Although I don't know what it is...but it healed me...could it be Shouldn't it be good..."

The maid laughed, and her laugh had an elegant muffled tone: "I've treated so many people—never one of them said to me, 'It's fine', and all of them were overwhelmed by this unusual scene. Fear, even for people who don’t seem to have changed, I can still see fear and greed in their eyes, but it’s you—that’s the abnormality.”

Arthur was speechless.He has already noticed that since he knew that the dream was real, his own mentality has also quietly changed.He should have stayed away from this existence that he didn't understand at all... But now, he felt that "it" was really magical and beautiful.

"This is witchcraft," the maid explained: "It is something that is feared and rejected by people. People who have mastered witchcraft always live in seclusion in the deep forest. According to legend, they will bring terror to people. The source of plague, swords and death. And parents will always tell their children that a witch will eat seven or eight children in one meal. If you are like you, I am afraid that I can’t fill one-seventh of my stomach. ..."
