The rebirth of Gawain Cecil seven hundred years later is not exactly the same as what Solderin remembered.
As an elf born with a long lifespan, Solderin is much better than humans in terms of memory. He can clearly remember his seven hundred years of experience and life, and also remember the seven hundred years of his life. During those exciting pioneering years, he witnessed how Gawain Cecil grew from a stupid young knight to a legendary hero who took charge of one side and protected the kingdom. He remembered the brave and perseverance of this legendary hero. , and remember how peaceful he was lying in the coffin...
Well, the last memory seems useless, mainly because the weird topic that just ended was too impressive.
Gawain can also see a trace of doubt and hesitation shown by Solderin from time to time, and can guess what the other person is thinking, but this is inevitable - he is not Gawain after all. Cecil, although the large amount of memories he inherited allows him to imitate the words and deeds of his true master in many aspects, even a slight difference can be detected by elves with sensitive nature and excellent memory.
If this is the case, then he should not forcefully imitate and perform it - if Solderin finds out the deliberateness, it will only arouse suspicion.
He took the initiative to talk about this topic openly and openly: "Do you think I am different from what I was seven hundred years ago?"
"There are indeed many differences. The same thing," Solderin nodded, "I know that humans are a fickle species, but that only changes when they are alive. You have been lying in the grave for the past seven hundred years. I don't know why you woke up. It will become... so different after coming."
"A lot of things can be changed between life and death," Gawain smiled and shook his head, "From the perspective of outsiders, I have been here for seven hundred years. There is a motionless corpse, but in fact I have experienced a lot."
It is quite effective to directly divert attention with a story with a large amount of information. Solderlin's expression suddenly changed. Becoming extremely surprised: "You mean... you have been awake during these seven hundred years of 'death'? Has your soul gone somewhere? Is it true that your soul is as rumored by the outside world? Traveled to the God Realm and stayed in the palace of the gods for several centuries?”
“There are still such rumors coming out from the outside world?” Gawain was stunned, and then began to wonder if these rumors were possible. It would be a variant of the countless rumors he had spread. Then he smiled and shook his head, "I don't know what the divine world looks like, but my soul has indeed transcended the limitations of time and space. I have seen many hidden things. History, lost kingdoms, and even knowledge that does not belong to this world. You know, compared to the thirty-five years of human life, I have seen much more with my soul in these seven hundred years, so what will be after resurrection? Changes are normal."
This is something Gawain had thought about a long time ago - he had conceived from the beginning what to do if a few long-lived "old acquaintances" popped up. I really understand Gawain·What should Cecil's ancients do if he questions himself as a resurrected person? He must have an explanation to explain the changes that have happened to him - any disguise or interpretation will have flaws one day. Face it head-on and come up with a reasonable explanation. This is the safest solution.
After all, there are various supernatural phenomena in this world that are beyond comprehension, and as a "client" who can even be resurrected from the dead, it is not difficult for others to claim that his soul has traveled through time and space. .
This is obviously an incredible story, but it is still within the acceptance range of Solderin. He just looked at Gawain in surprise, and nodded in admiration: "This is really magical... No wonder You suddenly know how to invent things. But have you told your two descendants?" "Rebecca and Hetty? They don't know, I haven't mentioned it to them." Gawain shook his head, "I'm afraid of scaring them."
He was just talking nonsense. Not to mention anything else, just Rebecca's enhanced level 13+ head and epic brain circuitry. Can a small thing scare her? I'm afraid that when the silly roe deer heard that her ancestor had been able to leave the body and travel in spirit for seven hundred years while lying in the grave, her first reaction was to think it was amazing and then she pestered Gawain to tell her that nonsense story...
But Solderin didn’t think about it and just nodded: “That’s right, there’s no need to tell everyone about this incredible experience.”
“I’m done with it. "Master, let's talk about you," Gawain dismissed the topic and looked at Solderin seriously, "Why are you in Typhon and why have you become Typhon's officer?"
"You seemed to have asked this question just now," Solderin said, somewhat dumbfounded, "Ask it again?"
"It was just a casual question. You can answer it casually. Now I If you ask seriously, answer seriously," Gawain's expression did not relax at all, "Is it possible that there is someone skilled in Typhon who can make your hair grow?"
Solderin's expression froze and he turned away in embarrassment. : "Ahem, it has nothing to do with that..."
After a moment of pause, he sighed slightly and talked about his own affairs: "I came to the Typhon Empire a hundred years ago."< /p>
"A hundred years ago..." Gawain frowned slightly, thinking of something, "Civil strife in Brumaire?"
"It was that turmoil," Solderin Leaning on the chair, he sighed with emotion, "You know, I am an elf, and I am an elf who has traveled on the continent for many years, so I don't actually have much feeling about the changes in human dynasties and rights, but the fog a hundred years ago The chaos in the moon made me feel that this country was no longer suitable for me to stay.
“In just six centuries, the descendants of the pioneers seemed to have forgotten all about their ancestors on this land. Hard work, a civil war, everyone is tearing the country apart for their own interests, Charlie Moen's descendants are killing each other for the throne, the guardians of the four borders of the kingdom are also in chaos, and the last illegitimate child seems to be farcicalThey formed a second dynasty, and that Grumman Cecil..."
Solderin glanced at Gawain slightly awkwardly when he said this: "You should know him What did. "
"It ruined my foundation," Gawain said calmly, "and lost my shield. "
"Grumman Cecil is actually an ambitious guy. He hopes to end the civil war in the shortest possible time, and the way is to quickly support a member of the royal family to become the new ruler of Anzu. , he believed that only such achievements could match the illustrious fame achieved by his ancestors. Unfortunately, he was ambitious but incompetent, and his ambition turned into arrogance and stupidity. He completely ruined everything in the Cecil family. , and I, an outsider... can only sit back and watch all this. "
Gawain asked casually: "Have you ever come into contact with Grumman? "
"I even went to him directly to give him some advice and help," Solderin snorted. "For your sake, I'm ready to return to Sisi." The preparations of your legion, but your descendant is not grateful at all - he seems to think that human affairs should be solved by humans themselves, and he wants to build a greater cause than you did. If you accept my help, Then half of the glory of this great achievement should be given to the ancestors, so that they cannot surpass you. Anyway, I don’t quite understand his train of thought. "
Gawain: "..."
He really wanted to call her a retard, but he held it back considering the image issue - fortunately he was resurrected through a dead body. Come on, if this were the genuine Gawain Cecil sitting here, I'm afraid he would be so angry that he died on the spot, and this death would be particularly unsettling...
Do you want to perform a show now? Myocardial infarction to enhance his authenticity?
Some unreliable thoughts flashed through Gao Wen’s mind, and he subconsciously asked: “What next? "
"Then? Then I went to Typhon," Solderin shrugged, "I'm not human, and all my ties to the country of Anzu ended in that civil war - after it was confirmed that the Cecil family still has After becoming the heir, I have no worries at all. Why do I still stay here? ”
The high-level ranger spoke very freely, but Gawain could fully imagine the mood he had when he left this kingdom.
Mostly he was completely heartbroken. Frustrated.
Solderin was emphasizing his identity as an elf and that he had nothing to do with this country. However, there was one fact that he could not deny: even if he was a foreigner, he was still a foreigner. Along with the pioneers in the north, he built this kingdom brick by brick.
Why would he leave if he was not completely disappointed with Anzu's successors?
After thinking about this, Gawain asked: "What are your plans for the future? ”
“The future? My future depends on what you plan," Solderlin is very self-aware, "I nowBut I'm still your prisoner. "
"But whether you want to continue to be a prisoner or not depends on your wishes," Gawain continued unmoved, "You now have a chance to choose, whether to return to Typhon. , or stay here with me, you can choose. "
This time, Solderin fell into long and serious thinking.
"If it were before the civil strife in Brumaire, you crawled out of the grave and offered me a solicitation , then I won’t have any hesitation at all.” After a long time, Solderin raised his head and looked into Gawain’s eyes and said, “But my current status is embarrassing. "
"You are a mercenary. I just found out that you have not sworn allegiance to the Typhon royal family. "
"But I am loyal to the commission," Solderin spread his hands. "Mercenaries also have professional ethics. "
"So, you plan to return to Typhon? ”
The high-level ranger was caught in a dilemma: “This is where I am confused - now that I know you are real, I really feel that it is a pity that you asked me to turn around and go back.” And besides...are you willing to put a high-level ranger like me back? "
"Of course I hope you can stay, I am short of manpower everywhere now," Gawain shrugged, "So I have made up my mind. If you insist on returning to Typhon, then I I can only let you go, then knock you out and tie you up halfway to persuade you again..."
Solderin: "..."
"It's just a joke," Gao Wen laughed, "I know what you are worried about, so I won't let you make a decision so quickly. You can stay in this territory for a while and use your own eyes to see if this place is worth investing in again. As for the Typhon soldiers you brought... don't worry, I won't go back on my promise to keep them alive, and I will place them properly. "
Solderin breathed a sigh of relief: "This is the best arrangement. ”
