"Do you two know each other?"
William noticed the weirdness of the atmosphere and interjected, looking at Liam, and then turned his eyes to Mr. Green.
Not only the legendary Prince Liam, but also the originally ordinary bard had become unfathomable in his eyes.
Who is Mr. Green, and why does he know so many secrets that even Hans, the son of a knight, doesn't know.
It seemed like this wasn't the first time the two of them had met.
"do not know."
"do not know."
Mr. Green and Prince Liam answered in unison, full of tacit understanding. Both said they did not know each other, but this attitude seemed strange.
William knew that if these two people didn't want to talk, it would be useless no matter how much he asked.
"Mr. Green, do you also want to participate in the tourney?"
William subconsciously greeted and said that now countless knights and young people who think they have strength want to try their luck in this martial arts tournament, so Mr. Green appears here and may be one of the contestants.
"Spare me, I'm just an ordinary bard. My little arms and legs can't wear a knight's armor, let alone the strength to swing a spear. Victory is destined to belong to you warriors."
Mr. Green shook his head in denial, then looked at William and said, "My child, your father Old William is very worried about you. Go back to your village. Don't live in the dream of a dragon-slaying hero anymore. This is an ordinary life." It’s the one that suits you best, and you will become an extremely good blacksmith, a true master of blacksmiths.”
"But I am already a brave man and a knight at the same time. My destiny is entangled with the dragon, and I can no longer return to the peaceful days. Now I am just Prince Liam's knight attendant."
William answered frankly, guessing in his mind that Mr. Green might have arrived in the different world of Annon before the evil dragon attacked the monastery. Otherwise, he would not have known that the monastery was attacked by the evil dragon and that he had been attacked by the evil dragon's dragon. News that the news was burned to ashes.
William wants to be resurrected and return to the world. He has no choice but to be a servant to Liam. Even his fate's favor comes from his entanglement and confrontation with the evil dragon.
"The heroes in Greek mythology are heroes, and the brave are brave. These are two related concepts, but they are essentially different. Heroes are the absolute protagonists in epic stories. They are kings, princes, and the gods Zeus. and other noble beings with the blood of gods. They are godlike beings and heroes among men. Even if ordinary people have heroic spirit and become warriors on the battlefield, they will not be the protagonists in the story. As leaders, When heroes need the service of these people, they will only call them warriors. This is the predecessor of the brave."
Mr. Green shook his head and told the origin of the brave man. In ancient Greece, only the sons of gods could become kings. Therefore, as the sons of kings, princes have the blood of gods flowing in their bodies. They have the courage to be superior to others. Heroes among men can therefore become heroes, while ordinary people, no matter how brave and good at fighting, will only be called warriors, playing supporting roles for the heroes who are the descendants of the gods. They are unknown and can break the sky, that is, they are called collectively. For heroes, and warriors are those.
"William, a hero cannot be created by relying on military exploits and bravery. This is something you are born with. You do not have the blood of gods flowing in your body, nor are you a noble prince. Your upper limit has already been determined, Fran. If the Sith is born as a prince and has the blood of pagan gods flowing through his veins, he may be able to advance to the second level based on his previous achievements.”
When Mr. Green said this, he was full of regrets for the brave Francis. Francis, who was born as a commoner and his father was just a small businessman, worked part-time as a representative of the poor counterattack. If he could successfully slay the dragon, he was guaranteed to be a king, but he failed. .
The reason is that brave men cannot bear the fate that only heroes can bear. Without the blood of gods, they cannot break through the seemingly weak but actually distant gap between brave men and heroes.
The failure of the brave Francis seems to be accidental, but in fact it is the inevitable fate.
William should not and cannot have such unreasonable delusions of becoming a hero. Instead of fighting the dragon with all his strength like the brave Francis but with no body left, it would be better to inherit his father's blacksmith shop in the village, or Going to a larger blacksmith shop to practice is the best choice for ordinary people.
William wanted to explain that although he did not have the blood of the gods in his body, he did have the blood of the red dragon. He was not an ordinary person now. But just as he was about to say it, he saw the knights on the street making a fuss. He made a decisive choice Shut up.
What's the use of explaining? I don't need to explain anything at all.
The arrival of Mr. Green was like a special visit to bring Prince Polyam and himself into a cold water.
He is already a knight and possesses the Holy Sword of Dawn. Continuing to live an ordinary life is not an option for him at all.
The favor of fate is both a blessing and a curse. He has not forgotten that the evil dragon is eyeing him, and the vows he once made must be fulfilled.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Green. I have been mentally prepared for a long time. As you can see, I am just the son of a blacksmith, not a legendary hero. But if this is God's will, then I Why refuse to accept this fate?"
William said calmly, looking at Mr. Green to organize his words and said, "Although a person does not seek his position, there is neither noble blood flowing in his body, nor noble status, nor heroic martial arts, but this person But he still takes it as his own duty to benefit the world. If it is what the public expects or what God desires, and he can only make achievements like a prince or a hero, then he will have no choice but to overstep his duty and shoulder his own responsibilities."
The church's view of kingship is the divine right of kings. Good kings and bad kings are the will of God, and it does not agree with the hereditary nature of kingship.
Therefore, everyone can be great, everyone can be a king and a hero, as long as God cares.
"What you said doesn't sound like the son of a blacksmith. I'm even doubting whether you are the little William I know."
Mr. Green said with slight surprise that Old William and Little William were both illiterate and had no education, and would not be able to say this under normal circumstances.
If it weren't for God's care and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, this sudden change would undoubtedly be particularly terrifying.
It's like a different person, possessed by a dragon.
