"That's it, there is this way..." Alice suddenly realized, with a boxing palm, "but you won't be jealous?"

"Our debts are in a consolidated state. Does it matter who is more famous? All the money earned is paid off together, and..." Merlin gloomily looked at the dark iron adventurer on his neck to prove, "I don't have the magic to fight. I guess I don’t want to be promoted to a high-level adventurer in my life, so I can’t accumulate reputation and status at all. It’s better to give it to you. The higher your reputation, the easier it will be for us to make money. This is called mutually beneficial symbiosis."

"That's it..." Alice widened her eyes, thinking that Merlin, a dark iron adventurer, would not be persuasive even if she had made a lot of credit. In the end, she would be useless, so it's better to give herself the chance of becoming famous.

At this moment, another person appeared on the magic screen

Wearing a broken bauhinia jersey and dusty silver armor.

He was bandaging the sky, limping on crutches.

The only survivor, Chapman!

The soldiers in the two rows raised their spears in salute like a guard of honor.

Countless people threw colorful flowers to the injured knight.

Bella: "Audience friends! We are oncoming our heroes in triumph! The bauhinia knight guarding the country! But he is the only one who came back. I don’t know what the situation is. I have a very ominous premonition at the scene. Now Please follow our lens to interview this glorious bauhinia knight!"

Chapman walked strenuously on Central Avenue with a cane, enjoying the hypocritical cheers and triumphant rituals like a show.

Looking at the overwhelming petals, one after another disturbed, Chapman couldn't help but think with guilt

I am not a hero, let alone a triumphant return.

I was a defeated knight and fled back with my tail between.

The real hero is not me, nor is it the Bauhinia Knights.

But...

Elgin's legendary swordsman, that nameless powerhouse with supernatural power!

(??Ω????)

Chapter 13

Central Avenue in London seems to be performing a large-scale drama.

The flowers filled the sky, and the colorful falling Ying slowly descended.

The road to the palace is covered with carpets of flowers, and the cheers on both sides like waves have never stopped since the beginning.

Step by step, Chapman moved slowly on crutches, feeling very uncomfortable.

He is an upright knight who strictly abides by the spirit of chivalry.

But now he has to cooperate with the royal family to perform this triumphant drama.

In order to make the glory of the Bauhinia Knights more shining, the image of the patron saint of Great Britain has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But now the Bauhinia Knights actually want to decorate with lies, this is not a glorious thing, full of despicable meaning.

Chapman felt that his current behavior had violated his original intention to join the Bauhinia Knights.

Why join the Knights of Bauhinia?

Of course, to become a part of the glory, to become a part of the guardian queen.

However, he is now embroiled in various interest entanglements, enjoying the hypocritical flowers and applause, insulting his chivalry spirit.

No wonder more and more people

All are willing to believe that the mysterious Elgin swordsman is the savior.

They don't want to believe in the bauhinia knights that can be touched by the tentacles.

Now even Chapman is willing to believe that Elgin's great swordsman is the patron saint of Britain.

Chapman understands that Elgin's great swordsman symbolizes the purest justice. This is what the people need most.

It's not a high-ranking royal knight who also likes to show off. He is not close to the people at all. It is better to be an adventurer on call.

Chapman thought of Elgin's back and remarks, and felt like a clown at this time.

Obviously the applause and the flowers belonged to the nameless strong man, but now they were shamelessly snatched by him, which violated the honest and fair chivalry spirit.

Although Chapman is not very willing, he is just a small captain himself. What can he do?

Merlin looked at Chapman on the magic screen blankly, and looked at his complicated eyes and couldn't help thinking, is this guy struggling inwardly?

Bella, a reporter for the London Post, had already silently memorized the interview manuscript and waited on the spot in advance.

Seeing Chapman stepping forward, Bella greeted him with the microphone and asked in a sad tone.

"Your Excellency Chapman, why are you the only one who came back?"

"Because..." Chapman thought about the manuscript in his heart, and suddenly said in tears, "Because all the members of the No. 27 team who went to crusade this time, except me... all sacrificed!!"

Although the dialogues are all well-designed, Chapman's memory of his comrades is true.

This cry is very sad, making people cry when they smell it.

"Audience friends, did you hear that?" Bella faced the camera, her eyes glistening with tears, her acting skills are worthy of praise, "Our hero, the 27th team of the Bauhinia Knights, whose mission is to protect the queen and the nation, are all heroic. Sacrificed on the border volcanoes in Scotland! They were young, many of them were not married, and they might be virgins to death! What a sad thing this is, ......"

An atmosphere of grief suddenly rose at the scene, and many people burst into tears, pushing the triumphal performance to a climax.

"Your Excellency Chapman, what do you want to tell the audience friends now?" Bella handed the microphone again.

"Although I was the only one who survived in our 27th team, all of them were good. They fought desperately to the last moment. They had no fear or regret in the face of death, because we know that protecting all citizens is also our mission. Even if I sacrifice my life, I will die without regrets. I want to inherit the spirit of my dead comrades and continue to live strong!" Chapman burst into tears while showing a strong expression, giving people a kind of righteousness. feel.

The Londoners on both sides made bursts of crying, and the guards couldn't help wiping their tears.

"Too...so touching, woooo..." Alice was actually infected by the atmosphere, her face was full.

Merlin looked at the cute Alice and thought, is this guy a fool?What an obvious show performance, I really believe it!?How simple is it!

"Merlin..." Alice asked depressedly with her teary eyes blinking, "Why didn't you save them when you came to save me?"

"It's not time, it's a shame..." Merlin sighed and said lightly, "Didn't I tell you? Even me, not everyone can be saved."

Alice lowered her head with tears in her eyes, silently thinking that Merlin was right. No matter how powerful he is, he can't change his fate or anything. If she doesn't become strong, she will end up in a regrettable manner sooner or later. ...

In the magic screen, Bella wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, "My audience friends, this is the Bauhinia Knights called the Queen’s Sword. They symbolize the elites of Great Britain. Perhaps this glamorous appearance makes Many people misunderstood them as the lofty knight masters, but now everyone has seen that they are willing to give precious lives in order to protect the safety of the kingdom. This great spirit of selfless dedication is definitely the patron saint of Great Britain!"

Not only at the scene, but even inside the guild there was enthusiastic applause, and everyone was whispering.

"It seems that the bauhinia knight is not so good, and his consciousness is so high."

"Worthy of the Bauhinia Knights, worthy of the name of the queen's sword!"

"Sure enough, the Bauhinia Knights are the strongest shield in Britain..."

Merlin raised her eyebrows, feeling a little unhappy, what's up?Isn't my credit completely turned into a wedding dress?

"Your Excellency Chapton, this crusade was under the leadership of Lord Sarhaddin, the Ninth Thorns Knight, but this triumphant did not see that amiable lord, could it be..." Bella continued to ask.

"That's right! Sir Sarhadin, bravery is righteous!" Chapman said sadly.

The audience was shocked. In the eyes of the people, every thorn knight was a peerless powerhouse, and actually died in battle.

How tragic was this crusade against the remnants of the former kingdom?

"Even... Even Sahaddin Lord has sacrificed!? I didn't expect the enemy to be so powerful. He is obviously a very enthusiastic adult. We just talked to the sky not long ago, and it was so sad that we left us like this. Bella covered her mouth, crying sadly, "Presumably the battle situation is evenly matched. Lord Sarhaddin went all out to fight, and finally ended up with the enemy?"

According to the script, Chapman should answer "Yes!", but at this time he fell into hesitation.

Chapman struggled back and forth between interests and glory, and finally decided to defend the glory of the knight!

There is no other reason. If the purest justice fails to get the praise it deserves, his fair chivalry will not allow it!

Chapman suddenly lifted his gauze-tied face and looked at the camera with piercing eyes.

He answered everyone seriously and turned the whole thing around

"no!"

"Sahadin-sama was killed by the enemy in seconds!"

"What really relieved this crisis is..."

"Elgin's legendary swordsman!!"

(?Ì?_?í?)

Chapter 14: Monthly Ticket Plus

Alice's eyes widened, her expression was extremely surprised, and she couldn't believe the sudden reversal of the topic.

Did Elgin the Great Swordsman ever show up when he was locked up on a volcano on the Scottish border?

After thinking about it carefully, Alice feels that something is not right, there may be any misunderstanding

Could the Bauhinia Knights regard Merlin as Elgin's great swordsman?

Well, it should be like this, it's very possible...

Sometimes, I would overlap the back of Elgin Great Swordsman with Merlin in a daze.

Although the two are somewhat similar, they have completely different consciousnesses, and they are definitely not the same person.
