To Four Thousand Years Later
v3 Chapter 78: lion instinct
"Are you Leonardo Povato?
Charles raised his head, stared at Ruo Ruo, a somewhat reckless young man, and suddenly laughed: "What a big guy.
Leonardo was about one height tall, with broad arms and a square face. Rather than being a noble son, he is more like a young and brave knight.
His short, slightly messy blond hair fell over his shoulders, and it could be seen that it hadn't been trimmed for a while. And standing in front of Charles, he didn't realize that he should bow down. It can be seen that this child is probably a complete stunner and the most eye-catching. It was his golden pupils.
Leonardo probably didn't even realize that his originally dark blue pupils had turned into lion-like golden round pupils, and even shimmered.
His awakened psychic power had been informed to Charles in advance by Agaphens. His abilities are "deterring evil" and "destroying evil"...the sets are very familiar to Zhiles, it sounds like he will shout "this enemy is worth fighting", even the gaze of rua's past fool Leonardo can shock People who think they have done something evil, blank their minds; and Leonardo's melee attacks can do double damage to people he thinks have done something evil. Basically, it's a positive and negative, Can cover most of the enemies.
This kid, maybe after all, he is going to lead the artillery unit, and he has no obligation to fight hand-to-hand. However, being able to awaken psionic energy, after all, shows that he has much better willpower than ordinary people. And Leonardo's name is mysteriously green. Although he did not bow down to himself. But at the beginning of the meeting, we reached a deep level... that's fine. It would save Charles a lot of words.
At this time, Leonardo was also looking at Charles. He vaguely noticed it. There is a shining sun behind King Solomon. It's definitely not a flattery, just under the light of that glow, Leonardo felt a warm and bright feeling. It's like bathing in the sun, but without feeling the slightest burn.
Moreover, Charles' eyes were burning with pure white flames visible to the naked eye. He was wearing a simple gold-rimmed white robe, and his demeanor was majestic but not arrogant. Perhaps as compensation for his clumsy wits, Leonardo grew up with a strange, **** intuition. He can vaguely distinguish people's hearts, although it is not very accurate.
He could see that his father was a disgraceful cuckoo, and he could sense that his friends were not entirely trusting and friendly to him.
But when he saw the beautiful Princess Koboga for the first time, he felt like she was a bird in a cage. He even felt a bit of pity for her; after getting to know her, he realized that she was a noble swan and when Leonardo met his best friend Malajiji for the first time, he even felt like an abominable swan. The black crow is very vigilant. He didn't know until later. Malajiji has a kindness and wisdom that belies his appearance.
But Leonardo believed that he was absolutely right about King Solomon.
His essence is the dazzling and warm sun that brings equal light to the world—"I'm sorry about the Wallachia matter.
Charles sighed, and sincerely apologized: "If it wasn't for me, your family would not have suffered such a catastrophe." Leonardo's tone was fierce! objected, "This is definitely not your fault!"
His eyes seemed to be burning with never-ending golden flames, like a lion who opened his eyes: "Maybe they also have their reasons, and their reasons may have something to do with you, but this is definitely not something I can pass on the hatred to you!" An excuse on you! Leonardo poked his neck and said stubbornly: "I will never blame others, that is absolutely wrong! I swear, even if I live my whole life, I will never be able to take revenge. I won't take my anger out on other people either! "
"I understand your determination. But don't swear indiscriminately, it will make people feel that you are frivolous. Charles had no choice but to think that such a purebred young man could still be seen among the nobles.
Or Ji said, it is because of noble origin. Only then can they have the opportunity to cultivate this rare sense of fearlessness.
True fearlessness is by no means dull, but a kind of great wisdom. It's not that they didn't understand, didn't know, or didn't admit it, and they made lies, but after knowing, experiencing, and feeling it personally, Yiri Charles was thinking, if he hadn't come... what kind of great things would this young man do? Woolen cloth?
"I heard that you want to be my guard knight?"
Charles paused, and said, "Do you know that I went to war against the Goths? What do you think about it?"
"With all due respect, Your Majesty," he said bluntly after a pause, "I don't think it's very good. Although I personally like fighting and the opportunity to take revenge, there are still many people who like war .They just want to live in peace.
"I know. If there is anything in the world that is worthy of being eradicated by the gods, then there are only four things: poverty, disease, and hunger and war.
Charles nodded and said solemnly: "But I can't withdraw. Pope Adrian died for this just battle, and it is impossible for me to withdraw at this time.
"Listen, Leonardo. If I give you a chance to end the war with the least cost and the shortest time, and have the opportunity to kill the Gothic Scout Army and the Stone King Benito. The price is that you will Would you like to bear the infamy?"
"What kind of infamy?"
"Bloodthirsty fire devil. Devil's believer. Madman. Cruel murderer. And so on. Charles stared at Leonardo. Cautiously asked: What I want to give you is a terrifying new weapon. This weapon is so powerful that it only takes one hit or a few hits to get the Goths out of battle quickly, but it's so brutal that even the Franks will fear you.
...Then if I don't agree, will you go to someone else, Your Majesty? "Yes." Charles admitted: "Compared with the Goths, I care more about the lives of the Frankish soldiers. They gave me everything including their souls, and I have an obligation to protect them from sudden and meaningless deaths as much as possible." Leonardo was silent for a while, then Qing said: "Besides, this will save one more person from the disaster. "
"Then, Leonardo. If you can obey all my orders in the next few wars, I will return your father's territory to you.
The young king said something that surprised Leonardo: "It is true that your father committed a crime, and I confiscated his land...but the people of Wallachia love you more than I do.
He looked at the young cavalry gently, and said softly, "I think, you will definitely be a merciful lord, a brave general, a loyal marquis... maybe you can be a good father in the future.
"It is so, Your Majesty!"
Leonardo responded excitedly, and hurriedly knelt down: "Thank you for your mercy!" Only then did he realize that he had forgotten to kneel before the king, and felt deeply ashamed and remorseful for it.
