The King of Knights in a Different World
Chapter 42
Therefore, Lucifer personally founded the duel arena.
The law stipulates that it is okay to fight, but you must go to the duel in the duel, otherwise it is illegal to go to jail.
As a result, while respecting traditions, new activities have also been extended.
Although the duel field brings a lot of income to Lucifer every year, it is not bad.
"Sounds like encouraging a duel"
"I haven't finished.
There is a fee for the duel field. From the bronze field to the gold field, the price ranges from one gold coin to ten 10 gold coins:."
"So expensive! Does anyone obey?"
"Of course there is.
At first, many people also thought that this is a problem, but the king said:'If in your hearts, the sacred duel that is enough to bet on life is not worth even a gold coin, then your glory is really cheap enough. .
Facts have proved that with the duel field, duels have decreased.
Because most of the hot-blooded guys heard that they had to pay, he felt that instead of...going to a duel, it was better to spend money on wine.
Yes, just like the pair over there."
While talking, Jenny pointed to a table of alcoholics on the other side of the store.
On the edge of the tavern, the two drunks might have drunk, and they began to pat each other on the table.
"I have endured you for a long time, and I will fight you."
The man on the left roared with a flushed face.
"Okay! I have tolerated you for a long time, and walked to the duel arena.
Either you die or I live today."
The man on the right yelled back.
Hearing what they said, the young man at the next table couldn't help but ridicule.
"Hey, you have to pay for the duel, do you have a gold coin?"
"What! A gold coin!"
"So expensive!"
"Still one by one."
"..."
"..."
They looked at each other and touched their pockets again.
Go to a duel once, and their monthly salary may be gone.
When they thought of this, their brains suddenly became sober.
"I think we still go to the bar."
The man on the left sat down and suggested.
"Yes, yes, I suddenly felt the same way.
The duel or something is totally...wasting money, it is better to use it to buy wine.
Here, I was wrong with my eldest brother just now, I'll buy you a drink."
"No, no, no! It's me who is wrong, I'm here to invite you."
"Just let's ask each other"
"Good idea! Go, get some good drinks.
Bartender, two glasses of white horse wine.
We also have to experience General Gao Wen's choice."
"Yes! Here comes!"
After serving the wine, Jenny returned to the counter, and Geralt did not leave at this time.
But he has fallen into a deep doubt in his life.
"..."
It's a good duel! You just yelled...loudly, but it turned out to be like this.
He almost thought he was watching a play.
"Did you see it! I don't know how many times this kind of thing will happen a day."
Jenny said with a smile.
"I suddenly understand why your king is holding a duel.
Because most people who want to duel are like this guy who drinks a lot, they will be sober when it comes to money."
Generally, boring people wake up when they mention money, and those...people who really want to fight will not care about the money.
The boundary of a gold coin has divided the crowd, and it has resolved many possible conflicts into the invisible.
Thinking of this, Geralt suddenly felt that the King of Britain was a very advantageous king.
"I don't know that.
Anyway...I would love to see this situation.
I said, you demon hunters always fight monsters, have you heard any anecdote?"
"I just came to this city. I have been chasing a vampire before."
"Vampire! Come on! Tell me what...the vampire is really the same as the legend."
"This......"
no.90 buy clothes (please ask for tickets, ask for custom)
In the City of Britain, the afternoon sun reveals a touch of gentleness.
People come and go on the bright avenue in the Losric District.
The Gothic buildings on both sides of the street extend to the palace, which has become one of the most prosperous areas in the royal city due to its proximity to the palace.
In the crowd, Lucifer and the four of them did not attract much attention.
It wasn't because they were inconspicuous, but because Lucifer used the magic technique for cover up in advance.
Along the way, everyone hardly paid attention to their figure, even if someone occasionally looked over, they would only see a combination of ordinary three women and one man.
Joan and El were looking around at this time.Since they came to the royal city, it was the first time that they had seen the royal city up close with their own eyes.
The shops on the side of the street, the pedestrians on the road are in order, and the street's ground is clean and tidy, which forms a sharp contrast with the small town before them.
The first time I saw this kind of scene, Joan was curious but also a little scared.
Her hands clasped Lucifer's arms tightly.
Compared to Jeanne, Al is much better...Although she is calm on the surface, the strength of her grasping Lucifer's arm has betrayed her heart.
In contrast, Altria is much calmer.
Prior to this, she had had many such appointments with Lucifer, and they had traveled almost everywhere in this royal city, from Lori Creek to Illusion to Rodland.
This time Lucifer came here only because she wanted to help Joan and the others buy clothes.Many of her clothes were also customized in a shop here.
And it was designed by Lucifer himself.
"Wang, is it really good to hide your identity and leave the palace like now?"
Joan looked at Lucifer a little timidly.
These days, she has been learning Chinese from Isabella with Al. Today is just a holiday, and she was forced out by Lucifer.
"Remember to call me Lucifer, Joan outside."
Lucifer has changed into casual clothes and still has a pair of glasses on her face.
Compared to Wang, he looks more like a scholar.
"Yes!"
"What we are doing now is a normal experience of the people's sentiments. It is difficult to see the whole picture of this country when we stay in the deep palace.
Look around, these people who are busy may not have high identities, but it is these tens of thousands of ordinary people that form the cornerstone of this country.
Understand that they are the best entrance to a good country:."
At the beginning of her current practice, Altria had complained about her failure to do business, but as time passed, she had understood her practice.
Nor will it reject this secret experience of the people's feelings.
Thanks to that, Lucifer will secretly run out to date with her in the name of experience from time to time.
"It turns out that this is the case. I used to think that the king only needs to sit on the throne of the palace and discuss the affairs of the country with the ministers."
Joan murmured.
Since meeting Lucifer, her impression of Wang has always been: being refreshed.
It seems that Wang is no longer so high, and the distance with her is closer.
"That's also a way, but if you just don't, you may not be able to see the whole picture of this country.
In many cases, it is better to witness many things with your own eyes.
Otherwise, "Why don't you eat cake?"
Lucifer's inadvertent mention of vulgar caused Al's reaction.
"Ah! What is that"
Al frowned and desperately recalled the knowledge he had written during this period.
She tried her best to leave Lucifer with the image of a girl with rich knowledge, but unfortunately, judging from the current situation, the road is still a little far away.
"To put it simply... there was a queen in the past. Under her influence, the people of the country were about to starve to death, but when she happened to see this situation, she asked his people,'Since there is no bread to eat. , Why not eat cake'.
Well, that's probably the story."
In my impression, this seems to be just a paragraph.
The real Queen Mary probably has never done such an ignorant thing.It seems that a certain surname Sima did this kind of thing.
But in order to adapt to the environment, we can only change the characters in the story.
"Is that woman's brain broken, there is no bread, where's the cake"
Al had a disgusted expression on his face at this time.
Both she and Joan have experienced the hardships of ordinary farmers.
Naturally, she will not be as ignorant as the queen in the story.
"Let such a woman become a queen and affect the country, the king in the story is quite disqualified.
No, maybe he is more excessive than the queen, just a faint lord who is addicted to enjoyment."
Altria also nodded.
She didn't blame everything on the queen, and she also felt that there was a problem with the king.
After all, the power of the queen comes from the king, and the person who dominates the country is also the king.
In contrast, Joan of Arc has a different view.
She listened to the story quietly and felt that the people in the story were not all malicious irony.
"Maybe, maybe she really thinks so.
The queen has lived in a privileged environment since she was born, and cakes are just ordinary desserts for her.
She didn't know the price of bread and cakes, but she took it for granted that since there is no bread, it's okay to eat cakes.
But I never thought that people who don't have bread can't eat cake at all."
