The mottled gold coins still shine with the brilliance of gold at night.
The dwarf's lucky gold coin is a gift from the elves.
William opened his mouth slightly, recalling the memory of the gold coin in his body, and finally knew the origin of the gold coin.
Hans is the "Son of the Harvest Year", and William is also the "Son of the Harvest Year". As the literal meaning goes, the "Son of the Harvest Year" is a child born in the harvest year, and the other name of the "Son of the Harvest Year" is a child favored by the elves.
In this medieval world that relied on the sky for food, people tended to evaluate a year's harvest as a disaster year with a poor harvest, an average year with an average harvest, and a good year with a good harvest.
Most of the ten years are ordinary years, and there are even years of disaster. The appearance of a good year is worthy of special mention, and makes the villagers and lords raise their glasses in celebration.
Relying on the sky for food means that the appearance of a good harvest year must be favored by the gods and protected by the elves. The weather will be smooth all day long, and the wheat on the earth will have a good harvest.
The crops harvested in a good harvest year are usually filled with the magic of the earth. According to ancient rituals, they will be concentrated on wheat. People will harvest a handful of the full ears of wheat swaying in the wind, and the first harvest of the year will attract The arrival of the elves.
In a good harvest year, the first ears of wheat harvested by the villagers often have magical powers that make the elves salivate. On the day of the harvest, the elves will choose to visit human families. In order to thank the elves for their protection, the people in the village will Offer ears of wheat to the spirits.
Of course, this ceremony is not without conditions. The villagers give gifts to the elves, and the elves will give gifts to the villagers in return.
Maybe it's a blessing, maybe a treasure, or even a promise. The elf will bless the children born in the village that year.
Children born in a year of good harvest are often seen by villagers as full of wheat. They are blessed by the earth elves and possess magical powers. Children born in the year are often stronger than children born in ordinary years. In order to avoid If a child born that year cannot be raised well and dies unexpectedly, the villagers will nominally dedicate their child to the elves during the harvest ceremony. It will not be until the child is twelve years old that the villagers will hold a ceremony to dedicate the child to the elves. His children were "ransomed" from the hands of the elves.
This ceremony has lasted for too long and is too ancient. It is even older than the belief in gods. Everyone believes that the humans living on the earth and the elves on the earth are inseparable. Younger children tend to be more favored by elves.
Hans's lucky gold coin is a gift from the elves in the year of good harvest.
William felt the mottled gold coins. From the appearance, the lucky gold coins seemed to be no different from other gold coins in normal circulation.
Just the slight flicker of light still revealed its extraordinaryness. Lucky gold coins can be said to be relatively rare among the highest-level blessings, because generally the blessings that children of good harvest can receive from elves are that they will grow stronger and healthier than children. As the son of a winemaker, Kuhn, who once died, Blessed by an elf who loves wine, he was given the ability to brew wine.
Lucky gold coins can bring luck to the person concerned. As long as you hold lucky gold coins, no matter what you do, you will have smooth sailing, and you will even avoid the misfortune you encounter.
The dwarf is a kind of elf with no fixed abode, and he is not even the original elf of this land. It is often the local elves who participate in the sacrificial activities in the harvest year. Only the dwarf will suddenly wander in.
Entertaining elves can get gifts from elves, and Hans's father, who is from a knight family, obviously knows how to entertain elves and get richer rewards from them.
Regarding this statement, people in the world have said that the favor of the elves depends on the mood of the elves, which is the so-called fate. People with noble blood, such as knights, nobles, princes, and princesses, tend to be favored by higher-level elves. .
If the old William didn't know the secret, then the current William can easily see through the essence of the problem.
Isn’t this kind of thing just a big investment with a big return?
What the elves long for is the wheat ears that have good weather in the harvest year and contain the magic of the earth. As long as families with children born in this year offer sacrifices to the elves, the elves will bless them.
However, how to win the favor of the elves depends not only on God's fate, but also on sending tributes.
Of course, the more ears of wheat harvested in a good harvest year, the better. For the sake of tribute, the elves do not mind giving rich rewards to the villagers. This is also what the nobles and even the princesses of the royal family bestow upon their birth. The target will be a fairy with a higher status than the superior elf.
Hans is the only knight in the hands of the baron, and he has a corresponding knight's manor as a fief. He can often provide more things than ordinary villagers as tribute to please the elves.
If you happen to meet the elf in question who likes the child, then it is reasonable to receive blessings from a high position.
William could no longer remember what kind of blessing he had received from the elves, or even whether he had received any blessing from the elves. This was really very different from Hans.
Perhaps this is one of the sources of Hans’ confidence in wanting to conquer the world.
It's just that the lucky gold coin may be able to help the person turn disaster into good luck, or it may make the person want to be more successful than others. Even Hans can be turned into an undead by the power of the lucky gold coin after death, but in the presence of a dragon of this size , no matter how many lucky gold coins there are, it is impossible to compete with this natural law.
Power is power, it cannot be ignored, and power often loses to greater power.
The magic power of the lucky gold coin is a kind of power, and the magic power of the evil dragon is also a kind of power. Even the dwarf cannot be the opponent of the evil dragon, let alone a lucky gold coin given by the dwarf.
William carefully kicked the gold coins into his pocket. Without the existence of Hans, the undead, the Holy Sword could no longer show any of its extraordinary qualities.
Those who are not qualified to use the Holy Sword cannot let the Holy Sword show the glory of the original Holy Sword. The Holy Sword could be used by William before, but it was just a temporary measure to face evil.
"This is Hess's bread."
William picked up the luggage left by Hess. The dragon's flames scorched the corpse so that he could not identify who his friends were. However, there was bread beside a certain corpse as dry food. He took out a piece of black bread and took a bite. He almost chipped his tooth.
Yes, this is the taste!
It tastes like a rock and can even be used to hit someone. It's unmistakable. This is Hess.
William silently packed his luggage, dug a hole and buried it. He seemed to hear the roar of wolves in the distance. While seeking good luck and avoiding disaster with the addition of lucky gold coins, he slowly bit into the hard black bread. Left the battlefield.
No matter what, only by living can you realize your dreams.
As for Kuhn, we can just ignore it.
