The King of Knights in a Different World
Chapter 23
Lucifer said easily.
"But the Knight-sama is very beautiful, and it feels handsome just by looking at it."
"Leah, how does it feel to be praised by such a same-sex"
"The mood is a bit subtle."
Altria's mood is indeed a bit complicated now.
Unlike other parallel worlds, she appeared in front of the world as a man.She is now completely dressed up as a woman, but she is still described as handsome, and the person talking about it is still a girl, and she is in a very delicate mood.
For a while, I even began to doubt whether the lack of feminine femininity that was ridiculed by other round tables was true.
Hearing Leah's words, Joan panicked and chose to apologize.
"I am sorry..!"
"No, you did nothing wrong.
You just told me how you feel about me. Although I feel a little complicated, I didn't feel offended."
With that, Altria took a peek at her dress.
This scene was also seen by Lucifer.After more than two years of development, the knight in front of her finally... began to care about her female charm, instead of caring more about the integrity of the knight as before.
Altria also noticed Lucifer's gaze at this time, and she subconsciously narrowed her expression and tilted her head to one side.
"Since Leah doesn't care, you don't need too much pressure.
Rather, you look alike, and we might be able to chat in a close way."
"Change another"
"Leah is my closest person. When I see you, I will naturally have a sense of intimacy. Moreover, it is private time now. There is no need to treat me as a king, as long as I am an ordinary friend.
Can it be done?"
An approachable smile appeared on Lucifer's face.
He took two chairs from the side and motioned for Joan to sit down:
Joan sat down, her hands on her legs, she looked a little nervous, but at least the look in her eyes was no longer the dodge she had before.
"I will try my best. Wang is very kind, not at all like everyone said."
"Everyone said that you don't mind what I hear in your ears, can you tell me?"
"It is said that the king can cut the earth with a sword, and the thunder energy jetted from his mouth shoots down the dragon seed. The power of the arm is enough to compare with the giant. As long as you look at it, you will disappear. The people are extremely strict..., but at the same time they are also wise kings who care about the people."
Joan said to herself, as if she was telling a legend from a distant story.
Every time she said something, Altria, who was facing her back, had an urge to laugh.
In spite of these... the words sound like to praise Lucifer's abilities, but Zhang's composition is mostly because it sounds like an exaggerated compliment, Altria It's not easy to say anything.
After all, this kind of thing is not counted, but the preacher has some insights.She had heard a more exaggerated version when she secretly went to the tavern in the royal city with Lucifer to experience the people's feelings.
"I have been deified into a teleportation, a monster that kills people with my eyes?"
Lucifer's expression was a little subtle.
I don't know when, my version of the story seems to be upgraded again.
The version I heard before seems to be able to defeat thousands of troops alone, but now it simply becomes the result of the previous big victory because of his own Wushuang.
If I can easily mow the grass with a Wushuang, why should I think about so many things?Jan of Arc seems to realize what she said now, and she immediately changed her words in a panic.
"Ah! No, it's not, it's just... By the way, everyone often says that life is so much better now than in the past, all because of the king.
You bring hope to this country."
"Hope..."
"Yes it is.
Let alone other people, it's like me.
For me, learning words has always been something I can't even imagine.
Although I don't have money now, I can only go to public places to listen, but it is enough to make people yearn.
I was planning to save money to go to school."
Joan's words are not a lie.Just a year ago, they had nothing to do with common people like them to learn this kind of thing, but now they have a school in their town.
There are even schools for people who don't have money.
Of course, the latter may consist of hundreds of people huddled together.It is certainly not as effective as the former, and the content only has some basic words.
But the advantage is that it doesn't cost money.
If you want to be literate, just listen to the latter.
But if you really want to study on the way to study, the former is the better way.
"Jan of Arc really likes to study."
Lucifer's words seemed to resonate with Joan, and she began to happily talk about her hobbies.
"Well, because I used to like to listen to stories, but many wonderful stories are in the book. If you want to read it, you can't read the words.
By the way, Uncle Ruhr is... the person who used to tell us stories, he made delicious crepes.
and also......"
Her words are talking about the little things in ordinary life, and these little things reveal her curiosity about the world.
Lucifer listened for a long time, and did not hear any resentment or even disgust in her words.
Obviously the people in her words were also involved in the burning, but she is still speaking kind words for them.
"It's rare.
Obviously such a cruel thing has happened to me, as the king, I am right in front of you, Joan, but you think of it not for your own defense, or even for me to punish them, but for talking about them like this. Good words."
Lucifer sighed, her eyes gentle.
"Is this... weird"
Joan suddenly remembered Lucifer's identity now.
"It's not strange, it's just quite rare.
After many people have been treated unfairly or even maliciously, a flame of anger will rise in their hearts. This flame will burn out those who inflict malice on him, even if they die together. .
But what I see in your eyes is sadness, but not a trace of anger."
"I think they may have committed their previous crimes because they were deceived by others.I know what they wanted to do, but I don't know why, but I can't hate them.
Maybe it's because I don't even know what hatred is.
Since I was born, have I ever had such feelings in my heart."
As she said, a trace of sadness flashed in Joan's eyes.
This sadness is for herself and for those who are ignorant.
She might even wonder if she would be happier without her here.
This trace of guilt and pity was seen by Lucifer.
"You didn't really think that you were...a witch, you were born guilty."
Lucifer said in a deliberately joking tone.
It's on the shelf, I hope you can support me a lot.
no.65 Miss Cavalier's girly heart (please ask for votes, ask for custom)
Faced with Lucifer's question, Joan really thought about it this way.
"Hey! How do you know"
Her expression was a little surprised.
"I always feel that you are a little too pure...Well, Jeanne.
How did you live safely until now and have not been sold."
"Why did I get sold? Everyone was good before, Uncle Burr, Aunt Lola and they helped us a lot."
"That's why I want to say.
It's really a miracle that you haven't been sold yet.
If it were a year ago, a girl like you would soon be taken away by a certain nobleman, and then played with, or even tortured to death."
During the words, Lucifer stretched out his right hand.
His hand was close to Joan's left cheek, as if he wanted to take a closer look at the girl's face.
Faced with such a rude behavior, Joan subconsciously thinks that she should pull Lucifer's hand away, but the thoughts in her heart are blocked by another emotion.
She didn't stop Lucifer, but the hands on her legs held her skirt tightly.
"No...no.
I'm not a person who is beautiful enough to be appreciated by the nobles."
She blushed desperately to defend.
"Sure enough, you are completely unaware of some aspects of yourself.
This is...something like Leah before."
Lucifer's words immediately caused knight Ji's small dissatisfaction behind him.
"Wang, please allow my rude words.
At that time, I just didn't know what love was, it was not unconscious."
I don't know why, Lucifer felt a little happy when he heard Altria talk about their private affairs in such a serious manner.
The unintentional actions prove that the line between public and private is getting blurred.
"Right.
It's still a little different from her."
"I......"
This time, Joan of Arc hadn't finished speaking, Lucifer had already spoken out his decision seriously.
"Come with me, Jeanne!"
"Hey! What?"
Joan's brain is blank.She knows the meaning of this sentence, but she doesn't know the meaning of Road Syphil.
"I said, follow me.
I like your innocence very much, but if you continue to stay here, your innocence will sooner or later be defiled along with your beautiful eyes, and I don't want to see that scene.
I don't want to see you being sent to the torture frame again."
Lucifer's thumb moved and wiped the corners of Joan's eyes.
But this time, Joan was stronger.
"Is it... because of Miss Altria? Because I have a face similar to her."
Joan looked at Alia subconsciously.She instinctively thought that the reason why country girls like her were favored by the king was because they had a similar face.
Her guess was close to the truth, but it was still a bit worse.
That is only one, but it is not the decisive reason.
"There is a part of the reason.
But more because of you.
In the world reflected in my eyes, there are more flames of sin karma than the original light.
After experiencing countless malice, suffering, embarrassment, and even betrayal, it is courage to choose to believe in human goodwill.
Many people have this courage, but in your body, I have seen completely different results."
