"Almost there? What do you mean? "Guevara asked.
"It's a type of magic circle." Han Jin smiled and said to the mountain warriors, "Carry the boxes down to my room."
"Yes, sir!" The mountain warriors answered and carried the boxes down the stairs.
Han Jin stood up slowly. Guevara hesitated for a moment. It was obvious that he wanted to say something, but he didn't. Han Jin noticed Guevara's expression. He turned around and smiled, "Is there anything else?"
"Majordomo Gail, he … don't be too …" Guevara didn't know how to express his thoughts. He had to consider the unity of the elves and also Han Jin's feelings. However, there was a conflict between the two, and it was difficult for him to satisfy both.
Han Jin was silent for a moment and said slowly, "This world is like a big river with countless undercurrents. I heard that … people in this world have no choice. I know what it means, but I don't really understand it. Some things can only be understood after you have experienced it yourself."
Guevara didn't interrupt. He just looked at Han Jin quietly.
"In the legends, it is said that heroes gather together to destroy evil. They are as pure and simple as newborn babies, and when they fight, they are as brave and fierce as beastmen who have been blessed with the Berserk Spell. Even if they have to sacrifice themselves, they will not hesitate. For justice, they can give up everything, as if they have countless lives to squander … Haha, in reality, such innocent people can only exist in stories." Han Jin slowly tidied up his robe, "Where there are people, there will be conflicts and conflicts. This is unavoidable. Distorting and denying human nature is the most foolish thing to do. If … we want to eliminate and resolve the conflicts between us, we can only choose between the big and the small. We even need someone to sacrifice himself, just like you."
"Me?" Guevara was stunned.
"Actually, there are conflicts between you and me. For example, Sunier represents the elves." Han Jin smiled. "I wasn't very sensible at that time, but … the main reason why I didn't realize the seriousness of this problem was that you were ready to sacrifice yourself, right?"
Han Jin was right. He was ready. If Han Jin could really get together with Sunier and the elves accepted Han Jin, then he could only quietly retire.
"I know what Majordomo Gail wants to do. Maybe he can hide it well, but Yalina can't. She left too many traces."
"Why didn't you refuse?" Guevara asked.
"Because Majordomo Gail was right. "If Keeley and Sylner are really in danger, it's hard for me to take care of them alone. I need help." Han Jin said in a low voice.
"Just because of this?" Guevara couldn't believe it.
Han Jin was silent for a moment, then chuckled. "To be honest, even though Majordomo Gail is always up to no good, I'm not worried about him. His methods are gentle, and he's also aware of my feelings. I can tolerate him, but compared to Majordomo Gail, I'm more worried about … Jeddis."
"Jeddis?" Guevara frowned, "Raphael, I think … Jeddis is already very tolerant of you, or even of us."
"I used to think that power would give me the right to do whatever I want, but now I realize that I was wrong. The higher you go, the more things you have to worry about, and the more you can't control yourself. I always have to choose between these and other things. Jeddis … is the same as me. " Han Jin slowly said, "The Holy See has been destroyed by Nicholas. The three Paladins, together with the surviving priests, have come all the way here. What is their purpose? Of course, it is to rebuild the Holy See! And Jeddis is the one and only candidate for the Pope! Haha … Are they going to restore the Holy See's past glory, or are they going to follow Jeddis's ideas and take the opportunity to get rid of the past and establish a new Holy See? This will not only affect our present, but also our future! "
"Sigh …" Guevara sighed.
"The three Holy Knight and Jeddis are always together, and they often have secret talks. What are they talking about?" Han Jin's eyes showed a mischievous smile, "In their minds, I should be a very powerful person. I killed a few giant dragons, fought the Dragon Knight Foneng and the Golden Dragon Ferragon alone, killed seven Abyss Demons, and killed Zagunéd. The Blood Clan's Ancestor Alquete also died by my hands. How many powerful people can have a battle record comparable to mine? So … the person they are most worried about is me. "
"And that's why you chose to leave at this time?"
"Yes, I left the stage empty and let the three firm Holy Knight perform to their heart's content. I also let Jeddis choose freely." Han Jin said faintly, "I will patiently wait for them to make a choice. Even if I find Qi Li and Sylvia tomorrow, I will not return. Now that the weather is cold and the elves are unable to launch an attack, it is a good time for us to integrate internally. Although it is dangerous, it is better than being stabbed in the back in the future."
"You clearly have the power to influence Jeddis, why did you let him choose freely?" Jeddis frowned and said, "Raphael, by doing this … you are pushing our comrades into the enemy camp."
"Jeddis is the future leader of the Holy See. It is far from enough to influence him, but Jeddis is a believer who cannot be controlled by others. Otherwise … Nicholas would not have killed him back then." Han Jin smiled and said, "According to Jeddis, there used to be only the Pope. When the third Pope was in charge of the Holy See, the power of the Holy See expanded to an unprecedented level. They could even interfere with the appointment and removal of the king. That was how the Pope was born, and the Holy See's authority was above the royal authority. In fact, my request is not high. I just hope that Jeddis will stop playing the farce of the king of kings. "
"It is just a title, what does it mean?"
"It can represent many things." Han Jin said slowly, "The Pope is still the Pope. It represents the will, goals, ideals, and desires of all believers. It also proves that Jeddis has the ability to control and restrain the believers. Besides … I can't force Jeddis into a situation where he can take a step back. Being impatient won't do. As long as he takes a step back, I will naturally have a way to make him take a second and third step back. Of course, I will compensate him accordingly. "
Guevara was silent for a long time, then said softly, "Raphael, you have really matured!"
"Haha …" Han Jin laughed, "So at this time, I need Majordomo Gail's friendship."
"What about the future? Do you still need it? "
This time, it was Han Jin's turn to be silent. After a while, he replied, "You know, I am not a cold and heartless person."
Guevara also knew that his words were too harsh. He sighed softly and changed the topic, "By the way, Kane asked me to ask you. Although Gibran has never walked out of the magic circle, he seems to have noticed the changes in the outside world. He asked me to ask you, what should we do? Are we going to keep Gibran and Julia locked inside? "
"Let them stay inside. It is good for them." Han Jin smiled bitterly.
"I know, you don't want Julia to be hurt." Guevara stared at Han Jin, "But I don't understand, why do you always care about Morrisons, Sassoux, Gibran, and Julia, but are so harsh on Majordomo Gail?! You must know that Majordomo Gail's help to you now and in the future will far exceed theirs! "
"If I didn't have the power and status I have today, would Majordomo Gail even look at me?" Han Jin said calmly.
"Your view … is a little naive and a little extreme." Guevara shook his head, "What is a complete Raphael?"
"What are you talking about?" Han Jin did not understand.
"This body in front of me and an invisible soul. The combination of the two is the real you, Raphael! This includes many things, such as your appearance, your thoughts, your experience, your sense of right and wrong, your judgment, your knowledge, your power, and so on. Majordomo Gail, who thinks highly of you because of your extraordinary potential, is no different from those female slaves who secretly admire you because of your appearance, status, and power. "
"Female slaves?" Han Jin could not help but smile bitterly again.
"Originally, I didn't want to say it, but since we've talked so much … I can only continue." Guevara's eyes showed that he had experienced the vicissitudes of life, "You said that Majordomo Gail deliberately tried to rope you in and befriend you because of your power and status. But in this world, is there such a thing as giving for no reason and no regrets?"
Han Jin was about to speak when Guevara waved his hand, "You guys go down first!"
Stillberg, Miriam, and the others were dumbfounded. When they heard Guevara's words, they all retreated from the stairs to the cabin, leaving only Han Jin and Guevara on the deck.
"Let's talk about the person you don't want to talk about the most," Guevara said slowly, "Why does Sunier like you? Is there no such reason? If you were really a good-for-nothing, Sunier, who is a descendant of God, might help you and take care of you, but she would never like you. Moreover, she would only take care of you for a while, and she would definitely leave. Let's talk about Morrisons and Sassoux. Yes, when you met them, you were just a fallen noble. You two got along well at first, but that is definitely not the reason why they are still following you! Morrisons has his own dream of becoming strong, and Sassoux's dream is to travel the whole continent. If you had not shown your ability, you two … would have been separated a long time ago! "
Han Jin fell into silence. He just wanted to communicate with Guevara, but the process was out of his control. Guevara became a little emotional, and Guevara's words made sense.
"Also, why is Yalina following you? Because you not only saved her, but also let her feel your power! Also, why did Gibran, Julia, Winston, and Saxon choose to trust you? " Guevara said slowly, "The one who has the deepest relationship with you should be Stillberg, but … you have a lot of secrets that you can't tell him, right? What will happen after you tell him? "
"I …"
"From the age of seventeen until now, it has been less than three years, and you have already become the youngest Lord on the continent!" Guevara smiled and said, "You have such extraordinary abilities. I really can't imagine why you have been so obscure for the past 17 years. Dismark is a very open-minded person, and he knows how to value and protect talents. Actually … you should have become the Lord's Mansion's VIP long ago. "
Han Jin had to shut his mouth. This was his biggest flaw, and no matter how he tried to explain it, he could not justify it.
"I am not saying this to find out your secrets. I want to tell you that everything you have, whether it is external or internal, is equally important." Guevara said, "Of course, I do not deny that there is such a thing as friendship in this world. If you suddenly lose everything, Morrisons and the others will still take care of you and help you like before. You have developed a deep friendship through a long period of suffering. Hehe … you have always valued and cared for them because of this, right?"
Han Jin did not answer, and only listened quietly.
"You said that you are not a cold person, but what makes you think that Majordomo Gail is cold? Most people gather around you for the same reason. You have accepted others, but you have rejected Majordomo Gail. From the beginning to the end, you have never given him a chance. You have always been wary of him in your heart. "
"You seem to be a lobbyist for Majordomo Gail today," Han Jin said with a smile.
"A lobbyist? He is not worthy. " Guevara shook his head. "I just want you to be careful, or at least be fair. These things have nothing to do with me. I can also see that you are wary of Majordomo Gail. Do you really think that Majordomo Gail does not know anything?"
Han Jin sighed softly.
"You mentioned a legendary story just now, so let's continue with a story as an example." Guevara paused. "In love stories, there is always an emphasis on kindness, purity, or … a kind of beauty of the soul. There is always a slander of power, strength, and wealth. This kind of story will resonate with many people. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because power, strength, and wealth are always in the hands of a few people. But this is not important. More importantly …" Guevara's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "The beauty of the soul cannot be proven! Power, strength, and wealth cannot be faked. The slightest test test will give the game away. But no matter how shameless and wretched a person is, he can still pretend to be a good person. In this aspect, everyone is standing on the same starting line. There is no distinction between high and low. Hehe … rather than saying that people like the beauty of the soul, it is better to say that they are pursuing a kind of absolute fairness. "
"You are wrong." Han Jin shook his head. "At least the beauty of the soul will not change with the passage of time. I used to like Sunier, not because she could protect me, not because she was a descendant of God. It was because she made me feel warm. And Sunier …"
"She likes you because you can give her a future! Of course, there are other reasons as well. "Guevara smiled." The beauty of the soul will not change with the passage of time? Will it really not change? "
Han Jin was about to speak, but he was once again interrupted by Guevara. "Do you believe that Sunier will not change, or does Sunier believe that you will not change? The Raphael now and the Raphael three years ago, have you really not changed? "
"That is because …"
"What we are talking about, the reason is not important. What is important is the result. What is the result? Sunier has changed, and so have you! " Guevara said. "Some people love flowers, while others love shiny gold coins. People always think that the former is elegant, while the latter is vulgar. In fact, there is not much difference between them. Starve a person who loves flowers for a few days, then throw him out on the street, and he will immediately love gold coins madly."
"You … are twisting words and forcing logic." Han Jin smiled bitterly.
"What I want to say is that because of your strength and immeasurable potential, you have gained the attention of others. This is normal. You should feel honored, and don't be hostile to Majordomo Gail. Although I don't know him, but … looking at his attitude towards Yalina, he is just a very ordinary old man. He has his own emotions, his own wishes, and his own protection. "Guevara said softly," At least you should give him a chance to get close to you. "
"I don't want to force myself."
"Who dares to force you?" Guevara laughed. "I know you are talking about Yalina, but … you can reject her! Remember, Majordomo Gail is the one who needs our help, not the other way around. If I am not wrong … Grand Duke Solomon has suffered a lot of injuries because of his battles when he was young. His current condition is not good, even though he is not yet 50 years old. Otherwise, Majordomo Gail would not be in such a hurry to seek shelter for the descendants of Grand Duke Solomon. "
"You mean …" Han Jin was stunned.
"You still don't understand?" Guevara looked a little helpless. "Majordomo Gail's first choice is the fastest and most stable way, but this does not mean that he has no other way. You … you have become very smart in other things, but when it comes to the relationship between a man and a woman, you are hopelessly stupid. "
"How can I be compared to you?" Han Jin shrugged his shoulders. "I heard that you had more than ten wives when you were young …" Before he could finish, Han Jin quickly shut his mouth. Guevara's wife and children had all died in the hands of the Silver Pegasus Regiment. Just like how Sunier was his pain, he should not mention this.
"You can reject Yalina, but you can't deliberately alienate her like you are now." Guevara said softly, as if he did not take Han Jin's words to heart. "Now you are the lord, and you have the initiative! Jeddes, Majordomo Gail, and I are … more or less your subordinates. Compared to you, he doesn't want to anger you. You rejected Yalina and showed some goodwill, so he naturally has to find a way to come up with a new suggestion. Do you understand now? "
Han Jin pondered for a moment and nodded. He understood Guevara's meaning. Even if he rejected Yalina, it did not mean that the two sides would break up. Of course, he had to show goodwill at the right time.
"Think about it yourself, but don't hurt Yalina too much. She is a good girl," Guevara sighed. "At least in my eyes, she is much better than Sunier."
