Chapter 5 Me, Elf?
The sound of footsteps sounded in the corridor next to the hall, getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared at the end of the corridor.
The man opposite waved his arm, and the door of the hall behind him was immediately closed by his men. Like all the little people, he looked at each other in panic. The man stared at him calmly: "Introduce yourself, Fan, the head of the Flame Knights. Sauron. Boban. Douglas. Hello, Count Richard."
"Me, do we know each other?"
"No." A smile suddenly appeared on the man's face. But the next second, he waved his fist fiercely, but at the moment when the fist was fired, his foot kicked fiercely at Richard's abdomen.
The false punch rolled up half a roar, and the lower foot was extremely fierce. Richard couldn't pretend anymore. He could only jump back quickly. He saw Richard's figure floating backwards. When he retreated, his arms and legs seemed to be both offensive and defensive. As soon as he landed, he looked at the other party with his hands behind his back, and his eyes became particularly bright and cold. Richard said in a gloomy voice, "Dear Legion Commander, what do you mean? Think about it."
"Sit down. The real owner of Laidi Island. Sauron turned around and sat in the position just now. After standing for a while, Richard lowered his arms and sat on his side. The two looked at each other through a blue-shirted wooden table.
Sauron's eyes were the joy that made Richard suspicious.
"Twenty years ago, the Phantom Samurai suddenly appeared on the battlefield and killed the barbarian general Groy. Forty years ago, the Phantom Samurai killed Phil, the first treacherous minister of the country in the imperial capital, and sixty years ago, the Phantom Samurai saved my grandfather in the Battle of Kuroshio... Fifteen years ago! At the most critical moment of the battle between the imperial legion and the barbarians, because of the sudden defection of the dark elves, the Rhine River war was in danger, but the dark elves suddenly withdrew from the battle, and the barbarians also collapsed thousands of miles. I can't understand it! Because I know that the Phantom Warrior has only appeared in the world once in 20 years. Fifteen years ago, you disappeared for a long time because of your wife's departure. Two years after Meglin's birth, he was raised at Margaret's house.
The middle-aged man turned over the Bredi security file in his hand: "You were not like this fifteen years ago. At that time, you were in high spirits, and your family property had not fallen to this point. Everything has been different since you came back."
"Leaign Sauron, are you kidding?"
"Later, I learned that the change in the war situation 15 years ago was because the king of the dark elves heard that the dragon who guarded the secrets of their clan was killed in the dark abyss! Killed by the Phantom Warrior!"
"What does this have to do with me?"
"The great Phantom Warrior, the most legendary figure in the epic continent for a thousand years. Seventy years ago, my grandfather was rescued from the battlefield by your grandfather. The Flame Legion, which has not been defeated for 300 years, was actually defeated. If it hadn't been for your grandfather's action, the Flame Legion would have destroyed the whole army. It was your grandfather who killed the last three powerful enemies. The glory of the Sauron family comes from the gift of your grandfather, and the glory of the Flame Legion also comes from his gift. Please accept the thank you for being late for 60 years.
After saying that, Sorenboban stood up, a standard imperial military salute.
Richard danced his hands unconvinced: "You are crazy. Don't talk nonsense. How can I be the descendant of the Phantom Warrior? My God, the Phantom Warriors are all over the world, and you still won't let me live."
"Soren only swears by the reputation of his ancestors and legions that if he spreads his identity as a benefactor in the world, Sauron's descendants will always be trapped in the dark abyss and will be slaves of the dark elves for generations."
"You are crazy." Richard danced and lowered his voice and shouted, "You let me go. Nonsense. I don't want to hear it."
"This is left by my grandfather. Please have a look. I swear to you, no one has read this letter except me, including my father, my wife and children."
With that, Richard pulled out a yellow envelope from his chest and respectfully handed it to Richard.
His movements are very resolute, and his eyes are sincere and warm. The Flame Knights are the heroes of the world. For countless years, the Phantom Warrior who has repeatedly tried to turn the tide and save the people of the bright world from the sea of suffering is like a god! In the hearts of the empire, the Phantom Warrior is side by side with the founding emperor, the magician John, and the knight Sauron.
Because of his mystery, it is even more fascinating.
Richard gradually stretched out his hand, took the envelope, and slowly sat down.
The parchment unfolds in front of him:
The Battle of the Rhine was over, the black tide finally receded, and all the comrades-in-arms were killed.
The same as the emperor's reward is that we killed three times as many enemies. Unlike the legend, in the end, the three bravest warriors of the barbarians still had the strength to fight, but I was exhausted. In the time of crisis, it was not that I defeated them, but the great Phantom Warrior saved me and the honor of the flames.
As a knight, I should be honest, but as a legion commander, as a general of the empire and the patriarch of the family, I have to think about a lot of things. The gods are above, not Sauron's shameless greed. That's because the spirit of the flame is one of the pillars of the empire. The bright world and the war between the barbarians is far from over, and the Flame Legion must persist.
I can't tell anyone. I can only tell the gods, myself, and the descendants who may find this letter in future generations.
My children and grandchildren.
I am the only one who has been in contact with the Phantom Warrior and survived. I have talked to him, and there is a little Brunei accent in the great Phantom Samurai accent. At my plea, the Phantom Warrior told me his identity. He is from the island of Île dire, but because of the teachings of the family's ancestors, each of them must travel abroad for five years as adults.
This is the reason why the Phantom appears every 20 years.
So, my children and grandchildren, if you see this letter, if you meet his descendants, go to him and repay him immediately to meet all his requirements!
Show him this letter, because you are vulnerable in front of him.
My descendants.
Don't tell anyone about the Phantom anymore. The kindness begins with me and ends with you. It is always hidden in your heart. Take a vow in the name of God and always keep it in mind!
Donnell's. Sauron. Douglas
"This letter is hidden in the cover of my grandfather's favorite wild travelogue. My young child inadvertently overturned the candlelight on it, and I accidentally found it when I was in the study. When I came here, I looked through the local archives. The files of eddy recorded the history and some details of your family, such as the ancestors of the Richard family, the former leader of the founding Iron Knights, and for example, an adult man who wanted to leave his hometown to travel after the age of 18, which was also the tradition of eddy, but No one has been like this for many years.
"Is that why? What does this have to do with my down-and-out nobleman?
"In the world, except the Phantom Warrior, no one can avoid my sudden blow so easily. Even Duke Robert, the leader of the Royal Knights, can't be so relaxed." Looking at Richard conceitedly, Sauron said, "My grandfather committed suicide."
"Why? Because of the honor of ridiculous knights? Or is it because of the guilt that occupied my grandfather's reputation? A brave general, a sad and respectable figure. Too many such people die from ridiculous rules. This is really the misfortune of our human beings. Richard said slowly and no longer denied it, and then he shook his hand, and the parchment shook into powder in an instant.
Sauron's heart was shocked. Thinking of the warrior who was said to have slaughtered the guardian dragon of the dark elves fifteen years ago, he thought of the earth-shaking wartime. He couldn't believe that human beings could defeat such existence, go deep into the dark abyss, and come back safely through the territory of the evil and powerful dark elves. That year, he was more Young?
"Do you have any gold coins on you?"
Sauron was stunned and said for a long time, "Yes."
I took his purse. He looked at him and said, "Okay, you have already retribution."
"No. No. Great, no, Count Richard, please give me a chance to follow you. In Richard's eyes, he immediately changed his words.
"Are you an idiot? The commander of the Flame Legion followed me, the little count, to eat? How far you die, how far you go, remember your oath!" Richard said and suddenly scolded loudly, "You idiot, are you humiliating me? My decent Earl Richard's bloodline is extremely pure. How can it be the descendant of your grandfather's illegitimate son?
After saying that, he suddenly opened the door of the hall and walked out angrily.
The sun shone on the face of this obscene middle-aged man and shone on him. The residents of Bleddy watched him come out and walked between the soldiers of the Flame Legion with money bags. A strange look appeared on the expressionless indifferent faces of the knights, and he was still there, repeating to the public. In addition, he jumped there: "I, Count Richard, pure blood, Sauron, you bastard humiliate me, I want to fight with you."
The residents burst out laughing.
Standing in the depths of the hall, watching him walk out step by step, the moment when the light came in and sprinkled on him, his figure was so straight. Sauron stood there like a petrified, listening to the laughter of the lay people outside, and Richard showing off like a clown: "There is always a price for those who insult me. You see, this is what he paid for me, huh!"
"God, what should I do?" Sauron covered his face with all his heart.
Mark, who walked in, looked at his leader in surprise. He turned around and listened to the noise outside, and his strange face was stunned. The adult hurriedly left the army and rushed here for this matter? Oh, my God, spread the reputation of adults! Thinking of this, Mark suddenly pulled out his sword, and a loud shout came from behind him: "Hold!"
"Your Excellency!" Mark's eyes are red.
"He is so angry, forgive him. Let me tell you a secret, he is really a descendant of my grandfather. Tell the city owner to treat his family well and send someone to send him a sum of money every month.
After opening his mouth for a long time, Mark bowed his head and said, "Yes, my lord."
My God, Mark said in his heart.
The noise was endless, and Richard still shouted there: "He compensated me. Look, look, I'm even scared by the commander of the Flames. I'm the great Richard, I'm the great Richard!"
The laughter kept coming, and he was getting farther and farther away.
He strode to the high steps at the door of the hall. Sauron stood with his hands behind his hands and watched the legend of walking in the distance leave like this. He felt indescribably depressed.
Richard resolutely left without looking back. Maiglin is still waiting anxiously for his father at Margaret's house. What can the head of the Flame Knights do to find his father? Isn't it him who pretended to be crazy and half-hearted father who has offended him in the past? Maybe, so if it's true, what should we do?
Time is too slow for him. Maglin was even ready to fight with the Flame Knights soldiers who came to arrest him. Poor Lucian squatted at the young master's lap and looked eagerly at Richard's way.
Finally, Richard appeared there surrounded by a group of people. Maigreen ran out in surprise, and Lucian stumbled behind. The master was usually a bastard, but Lucian knew that the master who rescued her from those evil guys was actually a good man. The real reason why she came to Richard's house was the secret between her and the master, and she didn't even tell the young master.
McGrim has run to Richard. He has learned from Richard and the people who followed Richard all the way back that the leader of the Flame Knights came out to find the illegitimate children of his ancestors. This rotten reason made everyone laugh. Maglin also wanted to laugh, but he suddenly became more worried. My father must have caused some big trouble.
How can it be such a ridiculous reason? Only those vulgar idiots believe it.
"What am I doing with the master? Sir, I'm going home. Let's go, son. After listening to the story, it's time for everyone to break up. Old Green, remember to buy me a drink next time.
"Get out of here." A fat old man with a red nose laughed and scolded, and the nearby residents dispersed one after another.
Richard took his son to Margaret's house, walked into the house, and proudly showed off again: "Damn Sauron insulted me. I proposed to fight with him. He didn't dare to agree, so he compensated me for some coins. What's wrong with me recently? First, Gif lost me ten gold coins last night, and now he actually compensated me more than 100 gold coins. Don't look, Margaret, don't look. I risked my life to get it. You know he is very powerful.
Margaret stared at the waste who dared to duel with the head of the Flame Knights and forgot to reply. Her thin husband also looked in shock at the evil neighbor who often verbally teased his woman. Like a real master, Richard took out ten gold coins and put them in front of Margaret: "This is your hard work in raising Maglin. Don't talk to me that I owe you a favor. Do you think it's too little? What a greedy fat woman."
Richard reluctantly took out five more: "There can't be more. Well, I said to cook quickly. Sir, I'll go home and talk about something with my magician son. I'll come over later.
After saying that, he dragged the well-informed Maglin and walked to his home. Along the way, he deliberately stepped on Margaret's cultivated vegetable field and complained sadly: "Why am I so stupid? Why should I give her five more?"
"Father, stop acting. She can't hear it anymore."
"I really feel sorry for those five gold coins." Richard's face was full of pain. Maglin looked at his father with a wry smile. He turned to Lucy, who was standing in front of Margaret's house, and shouted, "Luck, call me when lunch is ready."
"Okay, young master."
McGrim, who was answering, had been caught into the house by his father. Richard was educating his son without any virtue: "Don't care too much about women, boy. She's yours and can't run away."
Looking at his son's sudden embarrassment, Richard laughed, took him upstairs and leaned against the window. At this time, Richard suddenly became serious: "Son. Let me tell you a secret."
"What?"
The secret of a family. I should have told you when you were 18 years old, but I'm actually a Phantom Warrior.
McGrim felt that his head was going to explode. Originally, he thought his father was a waste, but Euro told him that his father was actually very strong. Now his powerful father actually told him that he was a Phantom Warrior? How is that possible?
"Every adult man has traveled abroad for five years, and the descendants of the Richard family, who abide by the family rules, have appeared once in the epic continent in 20 years. The same is true of the Phantom Warrior. Kid, don't think I'm joking. Sauron's grandfather was saved by my grandfather, your great-grandfather, in the Battle of Kuroshio. So he left a suicide note, and Sauron, who found the secret, came to repay me. Don't worry, he swore with his honor that this secret will follow him all his life and will never be leaked out.
"No, no, father, how can it be that the phantom warriors of the past thousand years are all?"
"Yes, they are all traces left by your great ancestors in the world. Originally, I wanted to tell you everything on your eighteenth birthday, but for a very special reason, I decided to tell you in advance.
"Have you really slaughtered the dragon? Did you kill Groy in thousands of horses? Are you really the hero who saved the empire?
"I killed Groy, and the dragon was disposed of by me by some special means. How can my force challenge such an existence head-on? Fifteen years ago, in the Battle of the Rhine, the dark elves who betrayed their ancestors suddenly retreated because their ancestral guardian dragons died. I did it." When it comes to his proud work in life, Richard squeezed his eyes.
The decadent middle-aged man in the sun is full of energy, not just because of himself, but because of his son.
"Child. The Phantom Warrior only appeared a thousand years ago. But our family has existed for three thousand years! In the era of the Battle of the Gods, our family already existed. In addition, I quietly tell you that what is flowing on our bodies is actually the blood of elves.
"Me, Elf?"
