Chapter 12 [Legendary Family]

The convoy walked for a day. Obviously, the new knight attracted the particular attention of her colleagues. Of course, it's not just because it's the only woman in the group, it's because of the knight's relationship with the little master.

Last night, she walked out of her little master's room. And overnight, she sent herself to the door to swear allegiance.

And this concern actually encompasses a layer of... a little jealousy.

That's right, jealous.

Because this woman actually got the real Knight title!

It must be noted that the so-called "guardian knight” of the family is not actually considered a true knight. Family Guardian Knight is actually just a name, a name with the name Knight. It's like a hippocampus with a horse, but no one really thinks that a hippocampus is the same thing as a horse.

In a sense, they're just a bunch of "cavalry.” It's a bunch of guard cavalry. Not really the knighthood class. A woman who suddenly met for a day, a woman with martial arts skills, suddenly got what these men dreamed of, and had to make them jealous.

It's bad enough that the little owners who follow this sack are assigned to the poor countryside. Their only quest is to hope that one day this master will suddenly favor himself and recruit himself from the Guardian Cavalry as an honorary knight - and that's all they can do.

Everyone knows that this little master is unlikely to inherit the title of Earl. He's going to be a baron at most, and the baron is only given the authority by law to recruit ten knights... now it's only a day away and a precious spot is occupied by an unknown woman! That's enough to make these people feel a little uneven.

The most plausible explanation is that the 13-year-old master probably doesn't know what a knight is yet. He simply used this precious thing as a game for children's homes and sent it to others at will!

And more importantly... who calls that chick pretty and has a nice pair of thighs?

Just admit it!

Jolyn had already felt the unexpected look from these new colleagues around her. Even her two original companions seemed a little confused. But Jolyn still decided to believe in her own eyes!

This new master, this young Master Dewey, will never be ordinary! Choosing to be loyal to him should not be a wrong decision!

When Evening Xia was once again in the sky, Dewey's convoy had just crossed a great river, and the bridge built by round boulders had been nearly a hundred years old, and the stones near the river were filled with turquoise moss, and the crystal-clear running river shone in a beautiful emerald color.

And the river is called the Emerald River, and of course it has a more official name:

Luo Lin He!

This river is named after the Rollins.

The Rollin River traverses the southern province of the Empire, dividing the rich province of the southern part of the Empire into two. With this river as the boundary line, as long as you cross this river, you have already set foot in the family territory of the Rollins! Half the Kurt province south of the river belongs to the Rollins!

The southern shore of the river is a flat plain, which is quite sizeable for the hilly terrain in the south. There's fertile land, green forests, farms everywhere, warm climates, plenty of sunshine, proper rain.

This is one of the richest lands in the Empire and an important location for the Empire's food production. This area is exactly half the plain of the province of Cote d 'Ivoire, and it also has an official name… the Rollin Plains!

Yes, it's also named after the Rollins.

This peculiar way of naming it started about 200 years ago.

Two hundred years ago, the Roland Empire experienced a great Patriotic War, historically documented as an exotic southern invasion in the north of the continent, dragging the entire Roland Empire into the mud of war, while rebellion broke out within the falling Empire, which was once on the verge of collapse.

During the war, a group of distinguished figures emerged, including a general of the Rollins, who later accumulated merit and eventually became an Imperial Marshal (the only Imperial Marshal in the Rollins' more than 300 years of history). It is also worth mentioning that the emperor married his sister in order to cage the marshal of Hercules of War.

Just before the march of an important duel, His Majesty the Emperor, in order to encourage his brother-in-law to bravely kill his enemies, lifted a horse whip on the south bank of the Emerald River and declared:

“If you succeed in returning, then after this river is bounded by land in the south of the province of Côte d 'Ivoire, I will give you all! And, in the future, the river, this plain, will be your family's name! Use it to highlight the Rollins' exceptional family and outstanding contribution to the Empire! ”

Such encouragement inspired the courage of the Marshal, who commanded the duel brilliantly and eventually won the war, saving the imperial fortune! He also won a deal with the Emperor!

After that, the Emerald River was renamed the Rollin River! And this plain in in the south, also known as the Rollin Plain —— two hundred years later, people have now forgotten what it used to be called!

Because the "Rollin River” and "Rollin Plains” are clearly written in all the official documents and local registers of the Empire.

Though two hundred years have passed, being a member of the Rollin family, even as these low-level escort cavalry members cross the river and step onto this plain land, they cannot help but be heartily excited!

This is a sense of belonging and honor to the family!

Look, this is where the Rollins live! It's where the great ancestors of the Rollins carved their names! Here, the great Rollins carved their names into the history of the Empire! It's engraved on this land!

Dewey, sitting in the trunk, felt the wagon slowly coming down, and there was movement outside. When Duvalla opened the window, she saw the knights in front of her who couldn't help but take off their hats and cheered, sweeping their faces like the debris of the road in the last few days, each of them exuded heartfelt joy and glory! And... worship!

“Home! The Rollins are home! Back to our own land! ”

The cavalry cheered, and others even forgot to discipline and marched back and forth. Let the horseshoes tread on the black soil with joy, and even their chief does not constrain these excited subordinates at this moment, but sits on a horse and smiles at it all!

Unlike other families in the Empire, the Rollins maintain a very ancient tradition! That is: knights and samurai in the family, only children from the family territory are recruited!

These escort cavalry men who came back with Dewey, quite a few of them were born in the Rollin Plains! They are the children of the true Rollins, people who have lived here for generations!

According to traditional practice, the Rollins' territorial militias, as well as the family's escort cavalry, even the head's own soldiers, each guard, are selected as much as possible from the Rollins Plains' "own family”! Because every homeowner thinks it can guarantee loyalty to his people and a sense of commitment to his family! For example, the chief guard of the current countess, the enlightened martial arts teacher of the Second Young Master Gabriel, the Alpha Swordsman, was born in the plains of Rollin.

These guard cavalry men who accompanied Dewey and were assigned to Emperor Capital were not happy because they had been expelled from the Empire, but fortunately, at this moment, the joy of returning home finally faded away.

Dewey sat in the carriage and looked at the cavalry who were screaming with joy, and as soon as he knew why, he laughed, "Mud, have we crossed the Rollin River? ”

“Yes, my lord.” Mudd immediately felt the horse by the car, and his face was similarly delighted: “We are home. ”

Dewey looked at Mudd and said, "Oh, Mudd, tell me, were you born in Cote d 'Ivoire, too? ”

“Yes, I grew up in Didu, but my father was a descendant of the native Rollins.” Mudd also smiled: “My father worked for the Rollins all his life, and I, inherited his job. ”

After a pause, Mudd glanced carefully at the little master and lowered his voice: “My master, I need to remind you of something... hmm...”

“What?”

“I'm afraid what you just said, what you said, is inappropriate.” Mudd's face revealed little seriousness!

“What's wrong?” Dewey smiled, “Just point out my mistake. ”

“You just asked me if I was born in Cote d 'Ivoire. That would be a little inappropriate.” Mudd gauged the master's expression and said carefully: “Although the Rollin Plains are in the province of Cote d 'Ivoire, we never say ‘I am from the province of Cote d 'Ivoire' when a true Rollin's people speak of their place of origin! A true Rollinian descendant, speaking of his place of birth, would only say, ’I am a Rollinian!’. A true Rollins' people will be proud and proud of who they are! My lord, so... when you face other Rollins in the future, please don't say ‘Kurt Province People’, please be sure to call 'Rollins Plains People’! Otherwise, they are likely to feel hurt because of your words. And... you are the eldest son of a family chief, let alone hurt the feelings of family members in your words. ”

Even Dewey had to feel a little surprised to look at his predecessor, Marv, and say that with pride.

Maybe... I really underestimated the family.

Look at the happy cavalry, at their heartfelt pride on one face… only a truly great family can do this.

In this case, then, Lord Count of Tidu, when he saw his first-born son with high hopes as an idiot, Lord Count with family responsibilities, a father who inherited family glory, the disappointment and anxiety in his heart is conceivable.

Though it had not been the case to treat the father coldly. But at this moment, Dewey suddenly understood the Count's mood from the depths of his heart!

As a father, he may be able to tolerate that his son is a loser! But as the leader of the family, he must not tolerate the desperate heir of the family as a waste! Because he must take responsibility for the future of such a great family!

In this way, he abandoned himself decisively, being cold to himself, and all of this is justifiable.

In such a moment, Dewey lost consciousness.

Mudd was surprised to see the look on the little master's face. Because since he became Dewey's personal servant, what he has seen is: this little master has always had a calm, spoiled look on his face since he was six! Why was there such a moment of confusion and disorientation in the master's face?

“This... my lord, are we not on our way home?” Mudd asked carefully.

“Go home... oh, go home.” Dewey responded with a subconscious response, and then he suddenly had an unstoppable thought in his head!

Go home!

At this moment, Dewey has been in a bit of a confusion over the years and seems to have finally come out with a glimmer of light!

Yes, go home!

For me not belonging to this world, what I lack most is a sense of belonging to this world! My indifference over the years, I don't like to express my inner feelings, or even deliberately suppress some inner feelings... The most fundamental reason is that I haven't really thought of myself as someone in this world yet! Because, in many cases, many things, for me, look at the world as if it were from the perspective of a visitor, a bystander... and this attitude creates inner indifference!

Home… what a beautiful word.

And what you lack now is not a formal sense of belonging to this world?

In the past few years, Dewey was in a faint mood for everything and suddenly felt a strange anticipation of returning to the Rollins' ancestral estate!

Look at those proud cavalry...

Hmm... the Rollin Plains? I wonder if I can find a little sense of belonging on this land?

I hope so!

Since it's impossible to really go home. So... it's also right to find a new home that you can trust in your heart, so that you can belong in your heart.

After all, since we have come to the world, life must continue.

With a hint of sunset, Dewey # 8226; Rollin walked down the carriage through the sliding door, out of the dark and closed compartment, out of the shadows and under the beautiful sunset.

The light shined on his face as if it dispersed all the haze. The teenager finally had a smile on his face... and he finally had a slightly defiant emotion in his face.

This emotion is: anticipation!
