Alien Knights

Chapter 566: Intermarriage

When Barbara and Randall walked into the King's audience room, Todd was chatting with Minnie about the future plans of the Crusade.

Seeing the appearance of the man and woman, Todd pointed to the sofa and motioned for them to sit down first.

"I don't want people to feel that the members of the Crusade Army are superior. They are soldiers, civilians, and believers. They should be treated equally."

Todd tapped his fingers on the tabletop, and said as he meditated: "In the current Twilight City, as long as it is a human, whether he is a knight or an ordinary citizen, he will squeeze his head and find ways to become a member of the Holy Order. The phenomenon is not normal and it is worthy of vigilance."

Sitting on the sofa, Minnie turned her cane: "Perhaps the Dragon Kingdom can issue a law to suppress the authority of the Crusade..."

Todd responded: "This is a way, but it's not the best way."

"Then what do you mean?"

"The key is to find a suitable way to balance the power between races, rather than relying on power to suppress the development of one party."

Todd shifted his gaze to Barbara and Randall, who were sitting in jeopardy. He smiled and said to the elf woman: "Just now at the Priesthood Trial, you two were very popular."

Barbara grabbed Randall's hand and said first: "Your Majesty, although we are at fault in this matter, we did not initiate the trial."

Todd shook his head amusingly: "Still complaining?"

Barbara blinked: "How dare we complain, if you didn't have your sage, Randall and I might have been in prison now."

Todd waved his hand: "Don't flatter me, I want to ask you, what do you plan to do next?"

Randall was a little dazed: "What happens next?"

Barbara thought for a while, but quickly understood Todd's meaning: "The words we said today completely offend the Holy Order. I'm okay, but I just refuted the Elf patriarch. At most, I will never again. Not going back to the elves gathering place... But, Randall, you have made a big disaster."

"Me? Get into trouble?"

Barbara grabbed Randall's arm with her fingers, with an annoyed look on her face: "You were in front of the Dragon God at the trial meeting, and you explained all the racial gaps in the Holy Cleric Army! Originally, those contradictions were from the Clerical Army. The secrets of the races, but if you tell them to the Dragon God, it is tantamount to damaging the image of all the members of the Crusade Army and tearing down everyone's platforms!"

Seeing Randall’s sudden look, Todd said with a smile: “Actually, even if you don’t say it, I know the contradictions between the different races, but you are in front of everyone, and you clarify the things that are not on the table. , It will offend many people."

Barbara crossed her fingers and said sincerely: "The Supreme Dragon God, we are all your devout believers, please help us!"

Todd asked, "Help? How can I help?"

Barbara paused for a moment.

Todd smiled and said, "Otherwise, I will send you two to Guyan City in the south, where there are relatively few priests, so it is suitable for you to take refuge?"

Barbara shook her head vigorously: "I almost lost my life there, so I vowed that I will never set foot in Lone Rock City again in this life!"

Minnie, who was sitting by, smiled and asked, "If you don't go to Guyan City, where are you going to go?"

Barbara and Randall looked at each other, and the two had no idea for a moment.

Todd looked at the embarrassment of the two and suddenly proposed: "There is a way."

Barbara raised her head and asked hopefully: "How?"

"You guys get married."

Randall opened his eyes and said, "Husband and wife?"

Todd smiled and said: "I will announce to all the Crusades that I agree to your marriage as a husband and wife, and I will send blessings. I also frankly said that since the relationship between you two has moved me so much, I will not only agree to your marriage, It has also been decided to open up intermarriage within the Crusades."

Minnie looked at Todd and said softly, "Intermarriage of the Crusades? If I remember correctly, no matter who they are, before joining the Crusades, they must swear to renounce all worldly things, including the family... "

Todd nodded and said: "Yes, the prerequisite for becoming a Crusader is indeed to give up everything in the past, because the transformation ritual means a new life, and the recipient will be changed to a brand new race... But there is one thing, I just said Abandoning the family before the conversion, but never forbidden to start a family after the conversion."

"In fact, there have been partners within the Crusades. Although these foreign men and women are not registered as husbands and wives, they will inevitably have feelings and want to start a family together if they live and fight together for a long time."

Todd was a little helpless: "If the union of these partners is forcibly broken up and their interactions are forbidden, it will not only damage the morale of the Crusades, but will also be detrimental to the stability of the army. So, instead of turning a blind eye to it. One eye, it is better to open up the intermarriage of the Crusades. Moreover, in this way, the members of the Crusades will be grateful for the credit of Barbara and Randall. After all, it is because of them that I open the intermarriage. , The resentment and grievance will naturally be wiped out."

Minnie glanced at Barbara with a beaming face and reminded Todd: "I have no opinion on opening up intermarriage between the Crusades. After all, we are cultivating the army, not the monks. But these two people Marriage, I hope you still proceed with caution."

Upon hearing this, Barbara couldn't sit still: "Since the intermarriage of the Crusades can be opened, why can't I be together with Randall?"

Minnie pointed to Randall and said: "What is the Crusade? The Crusades are those creatures that were once humans but have been transformed into alien races. Although Randall is a member of the Crusades in name, However, due to his human status, almost every alien race excluded him from the order of the Crusades, and regarded him as a complete human being."

"Under such a premise, have you ever wondered what kind of signal will be sent to this kingdom if you two combine? Humans can intermarry with the Crusades, which is equivalent to expanding the internal intermarriage of the Crusades into Unlimited marriage. In this way, the balance between all races will be broken, and humans will find ways to marry or marry a member of the Crusade in order to enhance their identity and status..."

Randall held Barbara's hand tightly, as if made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, if you agree to open the intermarriage of the Crusades, in order to be with Barbara, I am willing to transform. ceremony."

Todd was a little surprised: "Are you willing to participate in the transformation ceremony? You should know that there is a certain chance of failure in the ceremony. Even if it succeeds, you may transform into a monster that is completely unlike human beings. Even so, you are still willing to participate in the ceremony. ?"

Randall nodded vigorously: "Your Majesty, you should also know that the reason why I was reluctant to participate in the transformation ceremony was not because I was afraid of death and transformation, but because..."

Todd continued his words and said, "It's because of your mother's death~lightnovelpub.net~Randall lowered his head in grief, and his whole body was shaking slightly.

Barbara looked sadly at the man beside her, opened her arms, and slowly embraced the latter.

Todd looked at Randall and sighed: "Remember the conversation between you and me a long time ago? The elephant, who was afraid of the trainer’s whip, refused to pull out the stakes and escaped from the circus. Finally, Trapped to die in that square inch. I am very pleased to hear these words. You finally have the courage to walk out of the past and pull out the stake that trapped your soul."

Minnie nodded and said, "If Randall is willing to accept the transformation ritual, then all the problems will be solved. I can arrange the transformation ritual in the northern camp now..."

Todd interrupted Minnie's words: "I hope Randall, as a human being, will marry Barbara."

Minnie's face showed a look of surprise for the first time, and her eyes were full of questions when she looked at Todd.
