The Amber Sword

From the beginning, Sidney stood by silently, neither objecting nor extending his hand, his eyebrows slightly wrinkled, his mouth shut, his face a serious divine colour, as if at this moment he were not in the mountains of western Metz, but in the temple of flame, Sumu's Basilica. When Brando saw her, he couldn't help but think that it was a statue of the Virgin of the Holy Palace of the Lions. He was absolutely right. When he saw Sidney's golden red robe, he realized that her presence here was not a smooth sail, and it was no accident to find herself. Without a doubt, she was not on Her Majesty's Protestant side.

Her relationship with Walla was also friendly, and she was a very principled person who could not have betrayed the teachings of the Golden Flame Sacred Way.

“I'm sorry, I'm a little confused.” He explained.

“No problem.” Sidney replied.

“Thank you for saving me. ”

Sidney nodded, sort of answering.

Brando replied, observing the surrounding environment, quiet in the mountain forest, green leaves, not far from a stream flow between the mountain stones, a deer in the forest raised his ears vigilantly in this direction, showing a quiet and peaceful view. It still looks like it was in the previous valley, just can't see the marks left by the fight, seems to end up falling far away, doesn't know if White is around here, or even the soul is completely extinct.

Brando couldn't help but have a headache. Looks like Metisa still has a lot of respect for her sister. I don't know how she would react to this result. If she gets resentment for it, he can only admit it. After all, if he is given another chance, he will definitely make the same choice. It is too dangerous for that woman to stay in the world. But what he feared most was that Metisa would be so depressed that he couldn't bear to hurt her again.

When he thought of it, he stunned for a moment and threw his head away, asking, “How long have I been in a coma? ”

Sidney saw the anxiety on his face and said, "Soon I saw you fall from the sky and rush here, only for a minute now. ”

It's only been a while? Brando was slightly surprised. “Ma'am, you are...” He decided to pretend not to know Sidney, even though he recognized him, so as not to be too shocked. After all, he had never met him. Sidney introduced herself, and she was one of the high archbishops of the famous Lion's Palace Virgin, Temple of Fire. After introducing herself, Sidney did not wait for Brando to say, “I came all the way to you, Lord. ”

“To me?” Brando wanted to be, and of course he asked.

Sidney glanced at him and took a load off his back without saying a word. Brando noticed that she still had a bag on her back, the bag was long striped, the stack was wrapped in a grey cloth, and Sidney even wore a holy robe shattered, but the only way to see the bag was to protect it well, with little dust on it. She opened the baggage flat on a rock, revealing many silver-shinkling metal pieces the size of which, along with a black-painted sword handle, the weight hammer at the end of the handle was ingenious and engraved into the shape of a silver flame.

These pieces are fragments of a broken sword at first glance, and people like Sidney would pay so much attention to a broken sword that the origins of these pieces are self-evident.

Indeed, Sidney looked up solemnly at him as soon as he carefully sorted out the pieces and confirmed that they were quite a bit. “This is Holy Sword Odyphus.” She replied with seriousness, as if the sacred tone could bring the sword back to life.

“Turns out it's for Odyphus' sword soul.” Once Brando understood it, he remembered that he was asleep in this thing. Speaking of the messy things in his body, he had a soul after the wind, the inheritance of the Dark Dragon, the thunderous heart, the power of the brigade magician, the elite template - which of course has now become the chief template and the unknown game system - and now he has the blood of the Dark God and some messy memories. It's not appropriate to say it's a garbage heap. It's also inappropriate to say that moving the treasure trove always gives people the illusion that the wild BOSS will explode at any moment. In short, it doesn't feel good.

Sidney put down the shards of the Holy Sword Orphis and did not become further entwined on the subject, but rather said: "Before leaving Didu, I met Count Varache. ”

Brando just stunned and reacted. What the hell is this Count? It was originally Sy. He couldn't help but laugh. He shot himself dead in Eruin. He only got a land the size of Toniguer. And this so-called Count identity is still misleading - because Toniguer is not the Count Leader. His Count identity should in fact come from Jean Denel, but the Royal Party was reluctant to let him be the owner of Denel. If it wasn't for the head of this mission, he wouldn't know when to drag it, even now, it would be a fictitious title. And Cee suddenly sat flat with herself after a lap at Cruz. Oh, it's not right to say flat. Cee's enclosure is Varache. This place is the home of the mountain people. It's located in the mountains between Ludwig and Mehotofen. It's at least half the size of Eruin, let alone Cee, the true Earl of the Empire. It's not known how much gold is more than his half-hung Earl.

But suddenly he heard the news of Sy, and he was still excited. Although he knew that Sy had remained in Didu, he hadn't heard anything about him for months. I wonder if the girl with bad words has been wronged, whether she has been placed under house arrest by Her Majesty the Queen, how she has been, whether she has been embarrassed, whether she has had too many problems, and how to speak for a moment.

“Sy, is she okay?” He asked.

“Her Majesty did not embarrass her because no one could force Sky Blue's gun," Sidney replied, "but I heard that Her Majesty intended to give her to the son of Peno. ”

Sidney suddenly held her mouth because she acutely felt the surrounding temperature drop several degrees, the forest sounded low in sand, as if Cesar were shaking, and she looked up somewhat surprised to see that the drifting fallen leaves were suspended and rated around Brando's body, a white frost spread quickly onto the surrounding meadow, the shaking grass leaves instantly whitened to the tip of the leaves and then turned into ice dust powder. In the field of time and space confinement, molecular movements have stagnated completely, and space within a few feet of a circle has heaped into nothingness.

This is…

Brandoch was surprised that he had lost control of his power in a rage and hurried to regain his mind. He realized that this was due to the uncontrolled growth of his power too quickly, so that he could react quickly, otherwise the law of rampage would even harm himself.

“Peno, the mountain chief?” He asked coldly.

Sidney nodded after glancing at him.

“His son also deserves, and your Majesty has no other right than to subordinate me to political union. ”

“This should be a mere gesture, but Her Majesty would have done so had Count Varachi persisted in not bowing his head.” Sidney said.

Brando was suddenly a little irritable because of something he couldn't even tell himself. “What's wrong with that stupid girl, lowering her head for now? Can I still not believe her?” He didn't even know who he was yelling at, so he complained and then exhaled slightly and calmed down again.

Sidney wasn't surprised to see his color. “Unlike you, Your Majesty the Queen received on the final battlefield, Odin gave her not only strength, but also power, so that the dragon queen, the lion, the Minor, the Senians, and even Madara did not resist her majesty," she said suddenly, “and Your Highness the Count, what you received was blood, the blood of the dragon of war, from this point of view you are far less than her. And she spends more time than you. After decades of careful planning and preparation, her cards are far more than you can see. I'm afraid it's difficult to rely solely on the Crown Prince against her. ”

“You all know that?” Brando reacted.

“We found out after your battle with Williams, Count. ”

Brando couldn't bear to smile. Turns out, he thought he was hiding well. I didn't expect the high level of the Temple of Fire to know he had a dark dragon inheritance long ago. And he was curious, “If that's the case, why aren't you moving? ”

“This is the same as the indifference of the Fann Zan, for the same reason that I think you, Count, should have guessed, so it is unrealistic to expect the Fann Zan or other forces to intervene in this war. Buga may support you behind this, but that's just one of them, and Silver City State has been divided over the years, and there are many factions among them.” Sidney answered his questions quickly.

Brando shook his head again, and he knew it wasn't as simple as it seemed after that conversation with Tullaman. Even the Temple of Fire can be divided into two parts, except for the Light Basilica of Fanzan, so His Holiness the Pope of Fanzan chose not to move as a soldier is one possibility, and there is not too much happening right now.

“Is that why you came to me, Ms. Sidney? ”

Sidney nodded honestly. “The Silver Queen intended to revive the Minor dynasty, and I and the Holy See of Walla could not agree with her practice. The Holy See was placed under house arrest by her, and I escaped from the Emperor by myself. Her Majesty pulled the Sutra pie together, putting many people on the Protestant side, but locally, there are still many who support the view of the Holy See, and these people hold the opinions of a large part of the nobility around Ludwig and Metz, and if you simply call them off in the name of the Crown Prince, it will have little effect. ”

“Are the great enemies currently unable to achieve unity of opinion? ”

“This is a doctrinal war, and it's a very serious question of who to listen to. ”

“That's also true…” Brando thought that he had put the issue too simply, in fact the Prime Minister, Chikin, had raised similar issues with him, but he was not an authoritative member of the religious community, and the weight of the speech was not at one level after all.

He looked again at the fragments of the Holy Sword Orphis in Sidney's hands. "What do you mean, Ms. Sidney? ”

“The Throne asked me to find you, to recast this sword, to reorganize the Temple with the Blade of Fire as a relic, and he said - to show you another possibility of history," Sidney paused, explaining: "This is what His Excellency Walla said. ”

Brando opened his eyes in amazement, thinking that his psychological endurance was good enough, and he didn't expect it to be good enough in front of the monumental Vala. He heard the phrase and couldn't help but wonder, “Miss Sidney, do you think this is a fairy tale? You mean let me run the temple of flames. Do you really understand what that means? This isn't a joke, I haven't heard this story before, even in the most bizarre bedside legend. ”

There is only one meaning between the lines in the Walla script, which is to pass the throne to him, but Brando thinks he doesn't have the so-called leadership temperament of heaven, so that people can see at first sight that this is the destined man, the destined king, that people can bow down and worship. He was also self-aware, and most of the time he walked to this point, relying on the prophet to pretend to be a ghost. Although he sometimes pretended to be too much, he also warped and subjugated the witches, but he himself never took this seriously. Instead, he became less and less cold about these things. From the Ring of the Wind to the subsequent Battle of Ambethel, he came one footprint at a time and gave countless blood and life before barely changing Eruin's little future.

And today, all of a sudden a big character in the temple of fire comes to himself and says he wants to be the Holy See. Is this not a joke? This is a joke.

He shook his head somewhat incomprehensibly and said bitterly, “Ms. Sidney, I know that the soul of Odyphus is asleep in me, so you have to beg me. But if you urgently need my help, I would also be willing to form an alliance with you to help you recast this sword, because right now we have common enemies and goals —— but I am not interested in this sword and the location of the Holy Throne. ”

Brando stalled: “Back 10,000 steps, first of all, I am not a Cruz, and besides, I have never had an in-depth understanding of the teachings of the Golden Flame to the Way before, and I have no interest in the Temple of Fire. Are you comfortable with me as an outsider to lead the temple? Don't talk about you, I don't even know where I'm going to take you. ”

He first thought that the Temple of Fire was because the soul of Odyphus was on himself, so he came up with such a ridiculous solution. As for empty cheques, let yourself be moved first and say anything else. After all, the Temple of Fire is such a huge thing that he can carry a holy sword in his hand? That's the story in the fantasy novel, and if the people below ignore him, he doesn't say Holy Sword Odyphus, even with Amber Sword is useless. He doesn't want to be overrun as a puppet at all. If the Temple wants to find an alliance with him, it's better for everyone to take a step back and find a more sincere way.

But what Brando didn't expect was that Sidney's divine colour became more serious -- albeit very serious all the time, but even more so at this time -- and she glanced at him and said solemnly, “Count, what do you think the teachings of the Golden Flame Way are? Order and Guardianship, he is not as difficult to understand as you might imagine, His Eminence Walla chose you, and Holy Sword Ordfis chose you, and I am sure that mistakes are not too outrageous. ”

Brando was so stunned that he forgot to say anything.

“Are you serious? Ms. Sidney? ”

Sidney nodded and shook his head again: "I was just following the choice of Odyphus the Sword. Perhaps you don't understand the meaning of the Blade of Fire, but it's okay, I'm sure you will. ”

Brando shook his head. “I also need to think about it, I think it's better to be more cautious about this, and I'll think about recasting the Blade of Fire.” As he stood up from the ground and looked up at the direction of the valley, he was worried that Sister and Metisa would come and ask, "I'm going to find my companion. Are you coming with me, ma'am? ”

Sidney nodded her head and didn't seem to care that she had to get involved with the problem. She put her bags back together and stood up.
