Chapter 878: Friends have increased a lot
"Big, big, hello guys, my name is Karen Mandes? Walter? Sanskrit? Di Mahia will turn six in a few months. Everyone, please call me Kalman. After all, this young child is a little boy who was "born in the deep palace and grew up in the hands of a woman", and it seems that it is the first time that he has faced so many strange big brothers and sisters, as well as minotaurs, dogs, and fat snow leopards. He was obviously a little nervous, but even so, he still stumbled, but he said his greetings and self-introduction very seriously, without the slightest intention of dodging or evading. Regardless of the child's talent, this can already be judged as "strong-willed".
Children with such quality, in the hands of harsh educators, are enough to deserve the evaluation of "talented" and "unlimited". In fact, what we must know is that as long as you are not born with intellectual disabilities, congenital intelligence and cleverness can only represent an insignificant aspect of your talent, but the innate strong will and concentration can often determine your future and the upper limit of your achievements.
And the little prince of Kalman is such a child who is born with strong mental strength and concentration, and the upper limit of his achievements is limitless...... Of course, if he wasn't particularly poor.
"Karen Mandes? It's not quite an Aucklandish name. Nicole commented, "Well, it probably comes from the word 'tough mountain' in the Giant's language. ”
"Well, yes, Mistress Nivea. My name is the High Priestess of the Goddess of Earth and Fertility, which Cardinal Crenos took for me. The little prince was a little embarrassed, and his face flushed. But he also strictly adheres to perfect etiquette in his title: "He is a hybrid of a cloud giant and a dwarf, and he is a good friend of his grandfather, Duke Tyne." Give me this name. I guess I can have the body of the Titans, right? In addition, the name of the ancestor Knous the Great is actually derived from the Titan word. The reason why my parents gave me such a name must be because they hope that I can become a hero like the Emperor......"
At the mention of his deceased parents, the little prince couldn't help but droop his eyelids again, and his big eyes suddenly turned red. He is a strong child, obviously this kind of family tragedy that even adults can't bear, but he gritted his teeth and was completely unwilling to cry in front of everyone. But Lu Xi knew that the little prince would hide in the bed and cry almost every night, not only losing his parents, but also suddenly coming to a strange environment. Leaving all his relatives, including his brothers and sisters who love and love him - but in front of everyone, he still strives to maintain the "perfect" appearance and generosity that belongs to the royal family, and he is really a sensible child who makes people feel distressed.
The group of bear children in my hometown who began to hate dogs when they were six or seven years old really should learn from others!
For such sensible children, if you say something particularly uncreative such as "your parents are watching you from heaven", "you have to live well and comfort their spirits in heaven", it will seem particularly low. So, Lu Xi said to the little prince like this: "I can't guarantee that you will become a hero." In fact, becoming a hero like Caneuus the Great doesn't necessarily mean what your parents wanted. I can guarantee that, though. Follow me, and you will surely have a very fulfilling and meaningful life. When you grow old, you will not regret wasting your time. I will not be ashamed of doing nothing. You are the best you. It's also what your parents want to see you. ”
The little prince looked at Lu Xi in a daze, reminiscing about his classic sayings that would inevitably be passed down to the world. After a few seconds, he showed a persistent and solemn expression that was almost about to reach his faith, and nodded unusually seriously: "Yes, I understand, teacher!" ”
The youngest member of the Royal Springs (not counting the illegitimate grandson of the Grand Duke of Wales), the little prince of Kalman, is currently Lu Xi's second disciple. Of course, he is also a disciple of the Tempest. This is Karin personally asked the two of them, perhaps because she thinks that Lu Xi often has a weak head twitch, so she asked the wind to make a double insurance.
Indeed, she and this contemporary king of the night sky are theoretically rivals who should be in love with each other, but because of this, they are clear about each other's character and style. Karin is completely sure that as long as the other party agrees, he will definitely do his best to educate Kalman, in a sense, it is definitely much more reliable than Lu Xi, who fishes for three days and casts nets for two days.
In any case, one apprentice, two masters, or even N masters, are usually the treatment of the protagonists. Fortunately, Lu Xi and Hurricane already have such a relationship, even if someone calls them "teacher" at the same time, it will not let the two of them pinch each other like this.
Yes, this five-year-old Xiao Zhengtai is indeed too perfect a child, so perfect that Lu Xi can't even use "bear child" to describe each other, so perfect that there is nothing to find fault with except gender - a little weaker body is not a shortcoming at all in Lu Xi's opinion, it is clearly the cuteness of the sick and weak attributes. And as he himself said, such a good child deserves a better life, and it is not like spending most of his years in a hospital bed and dying before the age of twenty.
In fact, the reason why Prince Kalman's body is so weak and sick may be an incurable disease that ordinary doctors and priests can't help. But Lu Xi, who has the kryptonite eyes of the system, can see it at a glance, and it can only be his powerful spiritual power and perception behind ordinary people. Strong mental power allows him to have extremely high concentration, concentration, as well as information acceptance and memory ability, and perception also allows him to capture small fluctuations that ordinary people can't detect at all. These should be the qualities that an extraordinary and strong person needs most, but if they are placed on a child whose physique is thinner than ordinary people, excellent talents will become a burden......
There is a way to save this child's life, let him start exercising from now on, and polish a strong body worthy of strong mental strength as soon as possible. However, the problem is that after such a long time, the child's physique has been weakened to the point that he will be out of breath when he walks one or two hundred meters. Not even the most basic workouts.
Kalman once tried to start exercising, but he only went out and ran more than 100 meters before he broke out in a sweat. Therefore, he also suffered from a cold and fell ill, and he couldn't get out of bed on the spot. Several times I almost went straight to it. From then on, the sisters who were in charge of taking care of him no longer dared to let him do "stupid things".
In this way, there is really only one way, and Lu Xi is the only person in this world who can save him.
Lu Xi didn't know what kind of reason Karin would propose to hand over Kalman to himself as a disciple; Maybe it's because in Karin's opinion, many spellcasters are actually not in good health but have a long life, which should be quite suitable for Kalman, and he and Tempest are the most reliable magicians Karin knows. Anyway. Wanting to save the child's fate is indeed his sincerity, even if Karin doesn't mention it, he will mention it himself.
So, the friends on the Qiyao Aurora have one more like this, well, maybe a 1+5. In addition to the little prince Kalman, there were five maids who served him in his daily life, all of whom were well-trained and generous court ladies. Purely from the appearance and aura. That can definitely kill more than 90% of the world's daughters in seconds, but the swiftness and ability to do housework can also make more than 90% of professional maids ashamed and kill themselves.
The four little princesses were very worried about this frail and sickly younger brother, and naturally they couldn't accept letting their younger brother leave Yongchen Palace and Auckland with a group of strangers of unknown origin. Even if this "strange sister nun" has just saved the lives of their whole family, even if they finally realize that this sister nun is not only him and not her, but also their "brother-in-law".
"It's not that I don't want to believe you. Nun...... Ah, Master Belencaster. It's just that. Little Kalman has been in our care since he was born, and he has never even left the palace. So suddenly, he said that he would take him to practice. I, I'm really not at ease. "The words of the eldest princess Yoanna naturally represent the opinion of all her sisters. The sixteen-year-old girl, who had just lost her parents, gritted her teeth and groaned, hesitating, "...... If I really can't, can I follow you? Give up the title to Erani and take care of little Kalman. ”
Yes, Princess Juanna now has her own royal title, and if according to royal etiquette, her official title is also Archduchess Juanna of Césaire? Sereshi? Sanskrit? Di Marhia, not just a very ordinary "princess" of Yoanna. She has now inherited Emperor Iken's domain in Césaire, becoming the first hereditary royal lord to be canonized after Her Royal Highness the First Princess of the World became Her Majesty the First Empress of the World.
In the same way, her brother, the eldest son of Emperor Iken, the red-eyed Tommen Boy, is still the Prince of Calgary. Karin didn't seem to mind handing over her former fiefdom to her cousin.
This abnormal behavior did surprise many people, but it also made more people admire the "kindness and generosity" of the world's first princess, ah no, Her Majesty the Empress. Many of the nobles who were still serving under Emperor Iken, even if Karin had cut off a lot of fiefdoms, bowed down in front of Her Majesty the new Empress and sang war songs for her.
Of course, few people paid attention to Her Majesty's other orders: first, Karin appointed two middle-aged officials named Tuttles and Gniegel to serve as provincial consuls of Calgary and Césaire respectively, as well as palace ministers of His Royal Highness the Prince and His Royal Highness the Grand Duchess. In fact, these two are both civilian high-achieving students who graduated from the Imperial Capital National University established during the Sun King era, and they are also professional administrative officials promoted from the grassroots level by the virtuous minister Alke. Prior to the outbreak of the Civil War, he served as Deputy Director of the Imperial Audit Office and First Rank Inspector of the Ministry of the Interior. From their identities and resumes, it can be seen whose positions these two are. Second, she also selected several veteran and middle-aged officers from the Young Guards and the Central Forbidden Army to serve as local garrison commanders in the two provinces. At the same time, the commander of the Young Guard, Aunt Grissa, was invited out, and asked him to select young and strong soldiers from the bordering hills of Césaire and Calgary, and gradually the thirteenth Central Forbidden Army Regiment, even the flag and name were ready.
In this way, in two or three years at most, these two provinces, which have been divided into feudal provinces, will soon become real territories directly under the central government.
As for our Royal Highness the Prince and Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess, they will not leave the imperial capital for a long time, and the former is because "there is an official position in the central government". The latter is "underage and needs to receive a better education in the imperial capital", and it is estimated that it will no longer be possible to really control the government and military affairs of the fiefdom. Soon it will be reduced directly to the mascot of eating offerings. It's for them, though. Or a better option.
"I'll take a look first, if little Tomman and Yoanna can really become talents, I won't be stingy with official authority. Provided, of course, that they can find their ground! Stand with me. That's how Karin explained it to Lu Xi.
In addition to these circumstances, she did bury her uncle Iconn and her aunt Selenthia with imperial etiquette and specifications—since the queen's body could not be found, it could only be a well-dressed mound—and decided to give the appropriate imperial title and a more positive comment on the Spring and Autumn penmanship in the records of the national history.
A complete victor is qualified to show mercy, and this really helps to increase the prestige of the victor.
"Her Highness Alani is only fifteen years old, and you should not put your responsibility on her. Other than that. The reason why I want to take His Highness Kalman away from the Yongchen Palace and the Empire is to find him an environment that is not so comfortable, but it allows him to grow up quickly. If you follow him, I believe that you will be able to take care of him in every detail, but this will make His Highness Kalman rely on you even more, will this really be good for his growth? Although Lu Xi persuaded the little princess in this way, what he wanted to say in his heart was: "Tsk, you yourself are a pampered little princess, and you are also a girl." Maybe it's more important to be taken care of than that little Shota. It's already hard for me to carry a drag oil bottle, is it possible that I can't carry two? ”
The little princess gritted her silver teeth, obviously knowing what the other party meant. She hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stared at Lu Xi and said, "...... Guru. Please be honest with me. Kalman...... Does Kalman really have a future? ”
“…… Do you have no faith in me, or in him? Lu Xi paused. Then he smiled.
"I certainly don't want to lose faith! But, but. Too many people have lost this, including so many in authority...... Reason tells me. It is no longer possible for Kalman to grow up healthy and healthy like a normal child. Now, I just hope to give him at least the happiest, carefree childhood. ”
However, he was born with a strong sense of perception, but he actually has to think more and think more heavily than you sisters as sisters, huh? You have to understand that it is impossible for him to be carefree from the moment he is born.
"We've lost our father and mother, at least, at least we all want to...... At the moment when Kalman inevitably left us, we were all there for him. Saying these words must have required courage and awareness for this sixteen-year-old girl. She also seemed to have used up all the energy in her body, her eyes were red, she wanted to cry, trembled, and was only one step away from crying.
However, in the next second, Lu Xi had already pressed his hand on the little princess's head and patted it gently. She may not have been treated like this since she was a child, and she was stunned for a moment.
"Why do you look like you are parting from life and death. I still say the same thing, as long as you still have faith, you have to have faith in me. The pundits shook their heads? Don't you know that civilization is progressing because it is constantly breaking authority? No way? Don't you just ask, how many times have we made the impossible possible so far? Lu Xi showed a domineering smile like a dragon, and pointed to the sky, and almost said "I am the only one in the sky and the world".
"Give me five years, and give you a brother who is a hundred times healthier and more energetic than you, and can hammer a dead horse with his fists, in a word?" While speaking, Lu Xi stretched out his little thumb as if coaxing a child: "Do you want to pull the hook?" ”
“…… Well, it's a word! Also, thank you, Master! ”
Tsk, if it weren't for comforting this Princess Yuanna, I wouldn't have done something so shameful. However, considering that the little girl burst into tears on the spot, and then nodded vigorously with red eyes, it should have been worth it.
Of course, the little prince Kalman went out to learn the arts, not to become an ascetic, and his sisters were still worried about the life of his brother, who had never traveled far away. At this time, the children's uncle, the Duke of Tyrion, the prime minister of the empire, finally arrived in the imperial capital and made proper arrangements for this matter - he selected five excellent S-class court maids from the palace hall and his own mansion to send them over.
Yes, the number one ancient civilization in the human world is naturally worthy of its name, and even the female court officials can't help but look up to the mountains. These maids are not only amazing housekeepers, but also young people with good faces, beautiful postures, and generous manners. The oldest is 20 years old, and the youngest is only 16 years old. In fact, it is not surprising that if some aristocratic lords in remote areas, or relatively low-level urban nobles and wealthy merchant families, can welcome back a court lady to return home as a daughter-in-law, it is enough to make the whole family tremble for decades.
What's more, these female officials are not just female officers. The oldest, 20-year-old maid named Sonya, a very ordinary name, but with an unusual master. Her profession should theoretically be a court maid, but the system shows that she is clearly a silver 4th order swordsman. In addition, the other 4 little maids also have more than silver combat power.
Where are the maids, it's clearly a group of professional bodyguards. When you team up, you can go to the team dungeon, and you have wood? If you encounter an ordinary hundred-person thief group or pirate, these 5 little girls can protect the little prince and kill seven in and seven out? They brought several large boxes on the boat, saying that they were all kinds of change of clothes and housekeeping tools, but in fact, they also had their own weapons and armor, right?
Although he only met the Duke of Lancaster once, Lu Xi has always been difficult to deal with others. However, considering that although such a group of silver little girls are not ordinary people, they are not enough to see in front of him, he will not doubt that the short prime minister's uncle will want to play some conspiracy.
In any case, although the "maids" are said to have come to take care of the little prince, they have just boarded the Nanaurora, and they will take over the housekeeping and housekeeping of the entire ship as a matter of course. Usually, these chores are done by the Wind Knight plus villager A and villager B, Lu Xi and they occasionally go to help, which is very hard and troublesome, but the effect is still unsatisfactory. If it weren't for these royal maids, Lu Xi would have planned to hire a few specialized housekeepers in Serokhia.
In short, with the addition of a little Shota and five maids, the Nanaurora, which originally seemed a little empty, finally gained some popularity, and everyone didn't have to worry about eating only the simplest bread and broth every night.
The "strange-shaped" Nanaurora sailed the Grona River for several days, and along the way, it naturally attracted strong onlookers from all walks of life on the river, and finally left Auckland territory before the arrival of May. At this time, the floating ship will no longer be subject to the "Public International Law on Floating Boats" signed by the Federation and the two empires, and can ascend to the sky.
If all goes well, even if you don't need to activate the power of the Moonlight Ark, it will probably only take a day or two to resist the group's destination, Neosfia, the capital of the seven seas. (To be continued.) )
