Chapter 18 The Maid's Path of the Knight
"Bang!"
Roman beat his hand and the story came to an abrupt end.
Then he said as if he was decent: "If you want to know what happens next, please listen to the next breakdown!"
"ah??"
"Let's talk about it! Lord Roman..."
Roman looked at his audience with a smile and shook his head gently: "I have important things to do. If everyone is interested, you can look forward to my next work."
After saying that, Roman and Wendy escaped from the scene.
"Mr. Roman!"
A cute girl dressed in a maid blocked Roman's way, and she said seriously: "The knight is definitely not like this. I want to ask you not to slander the knight like this!"
Gudong...
Roman shrank nervously.
"What do you want to do?"
It's not that Roman was too cowardly.
But the mace with thorns is too creepy...
And it also has a more appropriate name - to convince people with (physical) principles.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Can't afford to play?
"Sorry, I'm disturbing you!" The girl who was obviously a maid put away her big stick. She apologized with an extremely standard knight ceremony: "My name is Noel, I am a maid of the Knights. My dream is to become a real knight.
I just heard your story, which was very exciting, but I personally thought that it was inappropriate for you to force the protagonist of the story to be a knight.
The chivalrous spirit you are sarcastic…”
Noel looked at Roman's face and his voice became lower and lower.
With her personality, she is extremely shy.
If Roman hadn't hurt her ideal, she wouldn't have been able to muster up the courage to say this to Roman.
even so…
Her tone was getting lower and lower.
Roman: "…"
OK, this wave hurts the heart of a girl who wants to become a knight.
"In your heart, the knight is brilliant and great, is that true?"
"Um!"
Noel nodded firmly.
Roman spread his hands: "That's right, I'm also showing the glory of a knight!"
"Not right!" Noel retorted, but she might feel that her tone was not appropriate, and she blushed and said slowly: "I mean... the Don Quixote you said was completely a clown... This is not the case with a real knight..."
"This is just a way of expression, girl--you want to be a knight but you haven't been selected yet, is that right?"
Noel nodded ashamed.
"That's right."
Roman snapped his fingers and induced him in a good manner: "Humility, honor, sacrifice, heroism, compassion, honesty, justice, and spirituality, this should be what you understand as chivalrous spirit."
Noel nodded, undeniable.
Although she has not become a real knight, she has always followed the rules of the knight.
She didn't understand at all...
Where exactly does the knight story in Roman's mouth fit these spirits?
"That's all alone, not enough."
Noel asked, "Then...what should I do it?"
In fact, she didn't care much about Roman's words, and she felt that Roman was deliberately belittling the Knight.
But the knight's demeanor made her choose to continue listening to Roman's words.
"The Chivalry spirit exists to correct the darkness and innocence of the world, and to restrain the knights. But... you don't understand it deeply enough, maybe this is why you didn't become a real knight.
You only heard the absurd behavior of the knight in my story, but you did not find that he was filled with the brilliance of the knight's idealism and the darkness of the current world.
He used the unbearable "chival spirit" you said to be a hero, but in the eyes of everyone, he was a clown. So, is it the wrong chival spirit or this world?"
Noel's eyes were full of confusion.
From the first sentence of Roman just now, she knew that this person really understood the spirit of chivalry.
But when Roman continued to talk, she found that she couldn't understand at all.
"I...I can't understand..."
Noel lowered her head. She had accepted Roman's statement now, so she humbly asked: "So what should we do to understand the true chivalrous spirit and become a knight."
“Hey…”
Wendy's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.
“I’ll tell you a story.
That was hundreds of years ago, the Lawrence family, one of the Mond nobles. Oh of course, now you should only see this name in history books.
At that time, the people of the Wind Land lived under the rule of Lawrence's high-pressure dictatorship, and even the Knights were the weapons he used to oppress the people...
It was not uncommon to steal the beautiful woman from the nobles to give it to the nobles and use a humble attitude to exchange for the nobles' rewards.
When Noel heard this, he couldn't help but cover his mouth: "How could the fair and heroic Knight help a villain like Lawrence?"
"Hmm? Girl, please continue to listen to me."
Wendy comforted: "The next thing is the well-known struggle, the unyielding gladiator, the Munata girl from the west of the mainland, and at that time she was only a slave used by the nobles to fight beasts.
With mercy on her tribe and the unyielding spirit of resistance in her heart, under the guidance of the God of Wind, she led all the oppressed people of Mond to set off resistance against the dictatorial aristocrats.
This girl, named Winessa, was the first Lion Tooth Knight.”
Noel nodded: "I have heard of Lord Winesa's legend. He is such a brave knight!"
"What you see is Winesha's indomitable, resistance, courage, mercy... but what if the Lion Tooth Knight failed in that struggle?
What if the people still live under the dictatorship of the nobles?
People just think...
‘Oh, that silly woman! It’s ridiculous to try to fight the great Lawrence family!’
The nobles and the knights who have become tools of aristocratic dictatorship will not feel that Winesa has the spirit of a knight, but will instead think that she is ridiculous.
I think that's what Roman should mean.
You said yes, Roman?"
Wendy made a very good, well-known example to vividly explain Roman's meaning.
Noel lowered his head thoughtfully.
"So, that absurd knight persistently pursues the chivalrous spirit in his heart. He doesn't care about the ridicule and cold eyes of others. I think this should be the brightest quality of the knight."
After thinking for a long time, Noel raised his head excitedly as if he was enlightened.
"I understand! Lord Roman and the poet! Thank you!"
She made a standard knight ceremony and then resolutely walked towards the direction of the Knights.
Qin, who was beside her, smiled thoughtfully.
"This girl worked too hard, and she did the knight's dedication to the extreme, but she never really valued her heart. Before gaining recognition from others, the first thing she had to do was to recognize herself.
I hope that next time, she will be able to pass the Knight selection and become a real Knight.”
