The dark courtyard.
Eli stood on the clean ground between pools of blood, his mood a little different.
He didn't feel anything when he killed someone just now, but now he has a strange feeling. It may be that the wizard's rationality is helping him, and Eli doesn't feel any discomfort.
There are no unnecessary emotions such as pain or regret, and even the joy of getting off work early today seems to be stronger than this.
"Being too rational may not be a good thing!" Eli sighed, and then began to touch the corpse.
Just kidding, killing people and touching their bodies, isn't that normal?
In the end, Eli found more than fifty jintals on the two of them, as well as a book of knightly laws.
He didn't expect to capture the knight's law, and Eli was also surprised.
It wasn't that he had any ideas about the path of knights, he just felt that he could gain a deeper understanding of knights through this book, and Eli was very happy about this.
After touching the body, Eli left directly.
As for Herman, leave him here.
It will definitely be a surprise when he wakes up.
…
The next afternoon.
People from the Imperial Police found Herman in this abandoned house.
According to Herman, he woke up at noon and saw the scene, and he was tied up again, so he almost squirmed out of there before he was discovered.
No one knows what Herman was feeling that day.
But that night, Herman also learned from the Imperial Police Department that Windsor and David were habitual criminals, which made him feel extremely ashamed.
So, on the fourth day at work.
Herman said that he would take on more work in the future, which was an unexpected surprise for Eli.
Herman has a strong tolerance and quickly got over the incident. It is said that he met a nurse when he was still in the hospital, and the two seemed to have an eye for each other.
This time it was normal, just an ordinary girl.
The two are planning to get married a year later, but of course that's a story later.
As for who killed Windsor and David, no one cared.
At first, the people at the police station wanted to investigate, but there were no clues, so they gave up. No one cared about the lives of two habitual criminals anyway.
There was also Teacher Lemon. He went to a familiar noble to ask for help that day, but he didn’t see anyone. So he went to the Imperial Police Station the next day, spent the whole day running around, and found Herman there.
As for Eli!
Didn't he go home and sleep? This matter has nothing to do with him.
…
Hermann's affairs are over.
The empire on the other side suddenly became turbulent.
I don’t know where the news came from, that the king’s health was dying, and suddenly the whole King’s Landing, or rather the whole kingdom, was in disarray.
The common people all love the current king, and the empire has been developing well during his tenure as king. No one knows what will happen to the future if he fails.
Of course, the surrounding countries are also more concerned about this matter than they are.
The most obvious thing is that there are many more people from other countries in King's Landing, and no one knows what purpose they have in arriving at King's Landing.
Eli, on the other hand, commutes to and from get off work normally.
He takes a bottle of Krypton Fate No. 1 every once in a while, and his mental power is also increasing, but he can obviously feel that his resistance to this medicine is getting stronger and stronger, and it may not be long before it is gone. use.
As for the knightly laws he had found from David before, he had also carefully read them.
He discovered that the promotion of the Great Knight actually required the integration of elements, but there was no record of how they were integrated. This should be a secret, and he didn't put much effort into it.
half year later.
Eli received a message from his teacher.
Possibly due to diplomatic considerations, the empire decided to visit neighboring countries and establish deeper ties.
The Marquis of the Empire will lead the team, and then bring some knights, musicians, scholars and the like to visit and communicate to establish friendship between the two countries.
As for who leads the team, whom to bring, and where to visit, these are all imperial secrets.
But Eli knew very well that this matter would not take long.
He estimated that this was the king's last act to pave the way for the eldest prince before his death.
Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Eli and the others.
First of all, it is impossible for the visiting delegation to directly take him as an ordinary librarian. Even if he goes, it will definitely be with his teacher.
But with Maester Lemon's usual low profile, the possibility of being selected was almost non-existent.
Although this is just a diplomatic event, it is a very good qualification for bachelors. It is estimated that many famous bachelors, even bachelors, will fight for it.
It’s really not that Eli looks down on his teacher.
If he was a librarian who was dawdling around every day, then Bachelor Lemon's current situation was that of a bachelor's bastard. Maybe it was because he was older and knew that he could not compete with others, so he simply did his own thing conscientiously.
It can be said that Lemon is almost the most low-key bachelor among all bachelors.
Even if there are activities outside, I hardly participate in them unless it is mandatory.
Eli didn't care about this either.
That's fine too.
…
at the same time.
royal palace.
In the palace, a pale-faced King Byrne VI sat on the throne, flanked by two guards. Underneath, stood a man who also looked no younger than the king.
"Marquis Alina, you know that although the kingdom is in good condition now, after I die, both the rats within the empire and the wolves outside the empire will take action."
"At this time, we need more friends to help us. This time, I will send you to the Kingdom of Lorraine to establish an alliance with them."
"Yes!" Marquis Elena also raised his head and looked at the king.
It's really sad that this man who was once a great knight has become like this.
Directly going deep into the enemy camp and killing Duke Frostwolf was almost impossible even for a great knight, but he did it, which is simply unimaginable.
"Okay, then you can go first. The personnel have been decided, but if you want to change, that's up to you." The king waved his hand and signaled Marquis Alina to leave.
The two have known each other for many years and are already very familiar with each other.
"Yes." Marquis Elena left without talking nonsense.
After Marquis Elena left, King Byrne VI stretched out his hand to signal the two guards to leave.
After a while, another man walked in.
He was wearing a loose academic robe, had white hair, black eyes, and was very strong.
"Aisha, you don't have much time." The man said.
"I know!" The king, Aisha, coughed twice and a mouthful of blood flowed out.
"The items left by the ancestors can only be used by relying on the stones left by the ancestors, and they have to consume my flesh and blood. It is really scary. I am obviously a great knight, but after using it, I can explode with a power far stronger than that of a knight. ." Bayn VI said helplessly.
"Oh, if you don't have the power called spiritual power but want to use it, it's impossible, so you pay the price." The man glanced at the king and shook his head.
"Haha, that's right." Byrne VI smiled and asked, "Are you still looking for that kind of power?"
"Of course, since Salin came from outside, there must be a place called "Wizard". I have been looking for it, but I just haven't found it." The man shook his head.
"Haha, if you don't find it, you will be killed directly." Byrne VI said hehe.
"If that's the case, I admit it." The man shook his head and said.
"Also, your eldest son has been trying to meddle in the library recently. I won't allow such a thing to happen."
"Haha, okay, I will warn him, but after I die, I don't think it will last long. After all, he is the future king." A smile appeared on the pale face of King Byrne VI.
It was never a secret that the king had a good relationship with the librarian.
"Well, I'll leave then. You take care of yourself." The man took one last look at Byrne VI and then left.
Finally, in the empty palace.
Only King Byrne VI was left on the Iron Throne.
