"My Lady!" "My Lady!"
Amidst the dazzling white light, the beautiful face of the Lake Fairy appeared in the mist.
The Brittany's Patron Goddess was wearing a sky-blue strapless silk dress with flower clusters engraved on it. There was a faint smile on her beautiful face, and the green eyes on her beautiful face were emitting a light of rebuke. Her bare feet were hanging high in the air, and she was as beautiful as a world-famous painting.
The small reception room was filled with the fragrance of flowers and earth, as well as the holy aura.
Her ankle-long golden hair was decorated with a flower crown, and it fluttered in the air as the Goddess moved. A shining moonstone was hanging in front of the peak of the mountain, and the Goddess's body was fully exposed in front of her believers. Many ribbons hung from her sleeves and hair, and each ribbon was engraved with sacred runes. Every corner of the silk dress was covered with chains and pendants made of gold and silver. The Goddess's necklace and her earrings were made of platinum diamonds, which were known as the "Beloved of the Elves".
A thought flashed through Ryan's mind: The Lake Fairy's attire might be worth several years of Brittania's taxes.
More importantly, after meeting her many times, the Lake Fairy would always wear different clothes.
It could only be said that the Goddess was really rich.
"Laing, my champion …" The Lake Fairy's sacred voice echoed in the small room. In front of her were Laing, Suria, and Sylvia, who were kneeling on one knee on the ground. "And François's daughter, Vincent's daughter, please get up."
"Yes, my Lady!" My lady! "The three of them stood up.
Looking at Laing, who was standing in front of her, a sly look flashed across the Lake Fairy's face. Holding the Holy Grail that countless knights yearned for in her hand, the beautiful Goddess said deliberately, "My champion, you seem to be thinking of something rude when you see me?"
"Well, no, my Lady," Laing replied a bit awkwardly.
In fact, he did have some weird thoughts like "Rich woman, XX me" in his mind, but he immediately threw it out of his mind. However, the Lake Fairy, who knew him well, had already noticed it.
The fairy in the lake looked at him with interest. She then looked at the Duke's daughter and her maidservant, who were trembling in fear. She then said in a gentle voice, "Sulia?"
"Yes, my Lady!" The female knight hurried to kneel again, but the Fairy in the Lake stopped her. "There's no need to be so formal. Suria, Sylvia, you've done well in this battle of chivalry. Stand up and talk."
"Yes, my lady!" Sulia was still a little nervous. At the same time, the female knight felt a little strange.
The Lake Nymphs visited the prime material plane more frequently than the other gods. As the daughter of a Grail Knight and a Grand Duke, Sulia had seen them before.
But in the few memories he had, the beautiful face of the Lady of the Lake was always solemn and cold, calm and ruthless. Cowards had no place to survive in her hands. Only by offering and sacrificing themselves could they get a glimpse of her.
No creature could stare at the impeccable face of the goddess in the lake for a long time, because that was an abnormal and dangerous behavior. There were once some rascals who tried to see the goddess's face clearly, and their fates could be imagined …
She had never seen such an emotional Lake Fairy before.
However, Laing did not have any special reaction to this situation. On the contrary, he seemed to be used to it.
"I have something to say to Laing. I hope you can temporarily …" As expected, the Lake Fairy smiled and passed down the oracle.
"Understood, my Lady. I will leave immediately." The female knight subconsciously grabbed her maid's hand and wanted to leave, but the Lake Fairy gestured for her to come over. "But before that, Suria, come here. I have a small gift for you."
A shimmering silver pendant was placed in the hands of the Duke's daughter. There was the hot divine power of the Lake Fairy circulating around the pendant. Based on this, Leon deduced that the pendant was most likely a temporary creation of the Lake Fairy.
"May the clear waters of the river accompany you on your journey as a knight, my dear Suria, and give my regards to your father, Francois." The Lake Fairy's slender fingers swept through the female knight's golden hair. It was an unparalleled encouragement, and Suria immediately felt a great sense of recognition and excitement. She could not help but stand up straight.
"And then, Silvia, please come forward." The Lake Fairy gestured for Silvia to come forward.
The stern maid blushed and whispered, "My lady, I don't have the right to …"
"Then I will wait for the day when you are qualified." The Lake Fairy did not force her.
After that, the Lake Fairy did not say anything else. The female knight and her maid immediately left, leaving the small parlor to Laing and the Lady.
When Suria and Silvia left, the Lake Fairy noticed that the female knight turned around and looked at Laing worriedly. Some thoughts in the Lake Fairy's mind became more and more certain.
"Laing, my champion." The Lake Fairy turned around and looked at Laing's figure with her green eyes. Her voice was soft like a feather, but also like a sharp blade cutting through thorns. "Sit down."
The Lady's champion was slightly uneasy. He did try to pray to his Lady when he made the decision, but he was sure that his Lady heard his prayer, but she did not reply.
What did that mean?
No one knew.
The Lady's words could not be ignored, so Laing returned to his seat. The soft leather sofa caused the Grail Knight's body to sink slightly as he prepared to listen to the Lady's instructions.
The Lake Fairy held the Grail in her hand and sat beside Laing. Her bright eyes looked at Laing, and her crystalline lips softly uttered the most moving words in the world without any emotion.
"I support you."
The Chosen Champion looked up in confusion. He could not imagine that he would hear such a firm answer. "My … My Lady?"
"I support you, my champion." The Fairy of the Lake turned her head and spoke to Leon. Her voice penetrated the heart of the Chosen One champion, and it was the most powerful stimulant. "No matter which angle you look at it from, your choice is correct."
"Thank you very much, my Lady." For the first time, Leon thanked her from the bottom of his heart. In his opinion, the relationship between him and the Lake Fairy had always been more like a deal. Both of them took what they needed. The Lake Fairy needed his strength and psionic energy, while he needed her protection and a step forward.
Unknowingly, Laing discovered that his relationship with the Lake Fairy was not that simple.
"I listened to your Round Table Discussion with François and Berchemund, and I'm satisfied with your decision." The Lake Fairy sighed softly. She placed the golden Grail inlaid with countless patterns on the table and said, "Laing, my champion, you know that war and politics are inseparable. You have sufficient wisdom, but that doesn't mean that everyone has it."
"When Anch Desmond drove Winford and Bastogne's army to the side for various reasons, I realized the outcome of the Battle of Knights. If we can't put aside our differences and fight together, the Knights won't be a match for the cunning Orcs. But Anch still did it. His arrogance and arrogance doomed him to failure."
"There are too many wars and conflicts in the mortal world. Even I can't save the Knights from every disaster." The Lake Fairy shook her head in pain. "The serious corruption in the forest limits my divine power, and the existence of the Rock of Ten Thousand Demons prevents me from probing. The dark forest is fair to everyone, but it's also unfair."
As expected, Leon narrowed his eyes. Compared to the powerful Evil Gods of Chaos, the Gods of Order in this world were much weaker. The Fairy of the Lake was already a God who was willing to fight to the death with Chaos, and also had the power of faith in the entire kingdom. However, even she was powerless to save the situation.
The Gods belonged to the Gods, and the mortals belonged to the mortals. The Gods had tried their best for many things, and the mortals could only rely on themselves for many things.
"And you, Laing, my champion, you know that your actions will cause controversy in the Knight King Kingdom. Your actions will attract the hostility and suspicion of the King. Your victory will be said to be worthless, and your glory will be stolen by thieves. But you still resolutely made the decision to destroy the Demon Cliff for me, for the Arden Forest and the surrounding villages, and for this kingdom." The Lake Fairy's soft voice was gentle and beautiful, like the reeds by the river flowing with the clear water. "I'm very happy."
"And I'm very honored, my lady." Laing also smiled.
"To be honest, I'm disappointed in Richard … I'm very disappointed. I've always hoped that he could maintain the harmony and unity of this kingdom … at least on the surface. Richard has indeed done it, but this is not the way I wanted." The Lake Fairy sighed. "But I have to admit that you made the right choice by taking a step back. The fragile trust between the Dukes has long disappeared after the incident at the Tower of Dore. Arrogance and fear form the foundation of this kingdom's governance, and we have to rely on this old and rotten order to fight against the terrible Chaos."
"Everything will be fine, my lady. Since His Majesty Richard ascended the throne, he has been trying his best to restore order and rebuild production. The chivalry principles and virtues that were destroyed in the past have also been reestablished. I've only contributed my insignificant efforts. Moreover … to be honest, even if His Majesty Richard doesn't intend to reward me with any reward, the loot that I've gained from the Demons Cliff is far beyond my imagination … We've gained over 300 kilograms of gold and silver there. My lady, I almost thought that I've robbed the national treasury." Lane pretended to be indifferent as he said with a smile.
"Haha, my champion, you're always so … so cheerful." The fairy in the lake couldn't help but smile. Her smile, which came from the bottom of her heart, was extremely infectious. It was a smile that could make the sun pale in comparison.
The flowers placed in the reception room were further blooming under the influence of the Lake Fairy.
The Lake Fairy gently stepped on the soft carpet with her bare feet. She gestured for Laing to sit closer until he was shoulder to shoulder with her. "Laing, my champion, I can't change the decision of the king and the Dukes because it's not something I should interfere in. But I can do what I should do."
"Morgiana has received my oracle. She is on her way to Colona. She will bring my inquiry and my appointment."
"Laing Macado is promoted to the Knight Commander of the Knights of the Holy Grail from today onwards."
"You deserve it, my champion."
"Thank you very much, my lady." A fiery light burst forth from Leon's eyes. This was the most powerful support from the Lake Fairy. With her attitude, many things would become a lot easier.
After everything was done, the Lake Fairy actually wanted to say something else to Laing, but neither the time nor the place was suitable, especially since she wanted to keep the special relationship between her and Laing a secret. So she reached out her white hand and placed it in front of Laing. "I should go now. My champion, I don't want to keep François's daughter waiting for too long."
Ryan gently kissed the fair and tender skin on the back of the hand of the Fairy in the Lake. "My lady, I can't express my gratitude with words, but my sword and war hammer can."
"When the tower in your castle is built, I'd love to have a long talk with you, my champion." The Lake Fairy smiled like a flower. She picked up the Holy Grail and touched Laing's face gently. "Patience is a virtue."
After that, the Lake Fairy disappeared in a dazzling white light, leaving only the fragrance of flowers in the room.
The door of the reception room was opened, and Laing came out with a smile. "Miss Suria? Miss Sylvia? It's almost time. Let's go and receive the Holy Communion. "
"Laing?" Suria was sitting not far away from the reception room, waiting. The duke's daughter actually wanted to know what the Lake Fairy said to Laing. "Well … does our lady have any instructions?"
"She supports me." Laing nodded and said softly, "She supports my decision."
"That's … great! The lady never disappoints us. " Sure enough, Suria could not help but praise after hearing the news. The female knight looked at Laing's confident face and felt happy for Laing. "With the lady's support, father and the others will have a much easier time."
"I hope so." Laing also felt relieved.
After enjoying the Holy Communion, the three of them left the Grail Cathedral. Their next destination was the Lion's Ring racetrack. It was the largest and best racetrack in the Old World. Laing didn't take a good look at it the last time he came, but now that he had the chance, he had to take a good look.
But before that, Leon brought Sulia and Sylvia to the Church of the Goddess of Mercy. He took out two letters and handed them to the priest of the Church of the Goddess of Mercy. "Please mail these two letters for me. The address is Skydome Castle, Garland Council."
"The recipients are Teresa Trovic and Veronica Benadotte. I want them sent by express mail."
"Alright, 20 crowns in total."
