Chapter 57: Fraud!?
To be honest, this matter is quite difficult to explain. If you want to explain it in detail, you will definitely mention the matter of fire spirit, but when you think about introducing the body shape of the child...
Well, in fact, the fewer things about the fire spirit, the better. It is not only because her existence will seriously affect the situation in the Trentak continent, but also because that guy's speechless personality is really challenging the bottom line of the public's morality.
"... That's it. Brother Kan and the others were plotted against by the three old guys in Blood Banquet... (this and that)... Then we inexplicably... (Jirigua)... Later... we met...Gardtevaz... (this and this)... Finally..."
Everyone else had left in the Beast King's tent, so Ralph introduced their previous experiences to the top of Trantak on behalf of others.
Of course, the clever little prince knew the thoughts of others very well, so in his narrative, he made some "modifications" of the "key" "certain" places of the "key" and roughly introduced the adventure of the group in the holy city of Gardtevaz.
“…Is there such a thing?”
After listening to the incredible experience of the little prince, the chief high priest of the fox clan showed a look of surprise.
"...I can't understand anything you are saying?"
The Beast King, who was sitting majestic on the main seat, knocked on his head and went all out to the lawsuit.
Only then did Feng Kan have the opportunity to carefully look at the people in front of him.
The senior priest Visit, the old man of the fox clan, had nothing strange about it. Just like the old man of the beast clan, the solemn and clean but very simple priestly robe was the only place that distinguished him from other old man of the beast clan. However, even this priest robe looked like an object from many years ago. The snow-white hair was thick and fluffy, and the front hair covered his eyes so he could not see his eyes. This somewhat added a hint of mysterious aura to him.
Katolov, one of the five holy knights of the Aussettine Divine Cult, is a strong man with a strong body and strong muscles. His face is clearly engraved with wind and frost. His short gray hair makes him look more energetic. These things that make people see at first sight are no different from ordinary orcs, but if you observe carefully, you will find that the eyes, which are slightly darker than the hair color, are less wild and unruly than other orcs, and more cold and deep.
But the cold eyes did not represent stereotypes and dogmas. The evidence was that he kept smiling in his eyes when he looked at the little prince, just like a man from an uncle in the family was looking at his junior.
Among these people, the most important beast king is more special.
As mentioned earlier, the Beast King is a girl of a race that makes people unable to tell what kind of race it is. This is understandable, because the Beast Kings of all generations have special existences with the bloodline of the sacred golden beasts, and this generation of Beast King is no exception. The problem is - she is too young, right?
I'm sorry, I've been introducing the Beast King as a girl before, and there are some things that make people understand wrongly - that look like a little loli!
He looks like he is only a ** year old at most. He has just left the "young girl" stage and entered the "loli" category!
Although she has blonde hair, she always shows that she wants to maintain majesty in terms of wording and wording, her tender childish voice and round little face cannot exude a majestic aura, but instead she has the cute aura of a child playing an adult...
Ah!…So is it the high priest Visit who comes to deal with it in formal occasions?
The Beast King is a blond little loli!?
...If it weren't for the solemn and depressing atmosphere at that time (the negotiation scene between the Santa League and the Principality of Bernardo), Feng Kan would have yelled this sentence with his head in his arms when he first saw her.
But even so, no one dared to underestimate this little loli.
The reason is the thing she was sitting under her little butt...
That... should be called a hammer?
Or is it more formal to call Warhammer?
The golden warhammer. Of course, the most attractive thing is not its material, but its volume...
That's too big, right?
The Loli Beast King just sat on the warhammer placed horizontally and was one head taller than Katolov, the most burly among the people present. This was not the long grip that emerged from the hammer.
No matter how you look at it, it is not something that humans can use, right? Even the strongest bear orcs or rhinoceros orcs cannot use it.
And this thing is indeed the exclusive weapon of the beast kings of all dynasties.
"Ritler the Raider" - This is the name of this weapon.
If you cannot use this weapon freely, even if you have the bloodline of the sacred golden beast, you will not be recognized as the Beast King.
That is to say:
——The blond little loli in front of me is indeed able to wield such a huge thing called "Rattler" on the battlefield...
Well, Feng Kan has to admit that there is something called "contrast cute" in this world, and it is just right to use this little loli beast king in front of you at this moment.
He could even imagine the cute blonde little loli jumping around on the battlefield with a huge warhammer that was several times bigger than herself...
By the way, how old is the Beast King this year?
"Ah. That little girl is indeed not over ten years old."
"Can you not use your mind reading skills in this kind of place?"
This guy in Britain is still so annoying.
But... the Beast King is really a genuine little loli!?
Let a child who is less than ten years old take up such a throne... It seems that the High Priest Visit is the one who "rules the power behind the curtain"?
Just kidding, even if you have never been to the Santa Alliance, Feng Kan knew that the so-called Beast King was actually more like a sign that united all orc races, and its symbolic significance was far greater than its practical significance.
This depends entirely on the orcs' big social form.
It has been said before that the Santa Alliance is a country composed of hundreds of orc tribes who are independent. In normal times, the things of each tribe are determined by their respective chiefs and the Beast King God Priests. If there is conflict or disagreement between the tribes, it will be handed over to the Alliance Priests Council to make a decision. Only when the war breaks out, each tribe will unite with the Beast King to fight.
In other words, the Beast King is actually only a role like the Supreme Commander of the Santa Alliance Joint Army.
The Beast King of the Santa Alliance is the supreme existence in the minds of the orcs, but that's all.
Orcs will serve the most delicious food to the Beast King, build the most comfortable tent, and provide the most comfortable living conditions, and will never offend the Beast King's dignity. Even if they try their best to maintain the Beast King's dignity, they will have nothing else.
The only responsibility of the Beast King is to protect the peace of the endless grassland and lead everyone to victory when the war breaks out.
In comparison, the priests of the tribes of the Supreme Council of the Union have much greater rights.
In this case, as long as the Beast King can perform its duties, it will be irrelevant whether the Beast King has political talents.
Then it would be no wonder that a blond loli, who is less than ten years old, will become the Beast King - as long as she can hold the big hammer that is several times bigger than her, it will be enough to knock people everywhere.
The little loli knocked her little head in distress and looked cute and cute, but she actually didn't need to understand what others were talking about.
As long as the High Priest Visit can understand it.
"Then what the prince's prince means - will that Dragon Knight convince Bernardo to stop the fight, right?"
"It can be said that, but the hope here is not very big."
Ralph answered the question of the old man of the fox clan with a wry smile.
Although this idea was discussed by everyone at Gardtevaz, it was not so easy to make Shutana Hardy convince Count Caridos.
"So the league still has to be fully prepared to cope with the worst."
Feng Kan was involved in the topic between the two at this time.
"Then Lord Prophet thinks we should prepare more on those aspects?"
"Old man, don't bury me. Can't you see a few pieces of materials I have? Old man, don't be polite. This is your territory, of course you are the one who decides."
It is actually quite uncomfortable to be praised by others. Although Feng Kan is not nervous, it does not mean that he does not know what "shame" means.
He knew his own affairs and was actually a big layman in war. He asked him to occasionally come up with a few evil ideas or lead a few powerful subordinates to rush around on the battlefield and create chaos for the enemy. But when it comes to mobilizing troops and strategizing, he couldn't catch up with the old fox who had been out of the battlefield for decades even if he crawled.
"I understand."
The chief high priest of the fox clan smiled and nodded. He seemed to be very satisfied with Feng Kan's answer.
After all, the old chief priest was unwilling to see the "Sky Prophet" who emerged from somewhere in the unknown, pointing fingers at his hundreds of thousands of soldiers to command randomly.
It would be fine if it was just a point of fingering, but if it affected the normal command order of the Santa Alliance, it would be a big problem.
There are absolutely no two command systems that cannot be coordinated in an army.
As they were talking, each of the dozen orchid boys walked into the tent with a few large wooden bowls.
In the wooden bowl is filled with fragrant toast cakes and jerky sauce. Although it has not been fermented, the burnt and fragrant taste still makes people's index fingers excited.
"Bernado really didn't do anything this time. The food and meat were fine. It just made our soldiers eat full. After that, no matter whether they were fighting or being harmonious, let our warriors have a full meal first. Don't be polite, friends from St. Ostan. Although there is nothing good, please try our orc skills."
The chief high priest of the fox clan rubbed his hands and signaled everyone not to be polite.
"Oh, it smells so good!"
Faced with the steaming toast, everyone's appetite was mobilized. Feng Kan and his group were fine, but the orc warriors in the tent took the wooden bowl and swallowed it without saying a word - after being hungry for so long, they finally had a good meal.
“…”
Everyone started eating without hesitation, but for some reason, Feng Kan did not catch the food in front of him like others. He just stared at the young man from the beast tribe who had withdrawn from the tent, who looked skinny and bony because of his long hunger before, thinking.
"Brother Kan, what's wrong with you? Are you not hungry? If you don't eat, please give it to me!"
Ralph, who was sitting beside him, asked strangely, and saw that he had no reaction, he whispered to himself to remove a large piece of jerky sauce from his bowl.
"……not good……"
Ignoring the little prince's scammering behavior, Feng Kan's face suddenly changed and jumped up!
"Bernado's move is a scam!"
