Chapter 507: The Great Canon (5)
The opening scene of the founding ceremony became a solo show of Cervantes's dragon, and his roar ignited the passion in everyone's hearts, causing everyone to roar with it.
Standing in the mage tower, seeing this scene through the glass, Edith's eyes were red, and she held back her tears to keep them from falling.
Lady Molly on the side sighed faintly, compared to Edith, the lady who had accompanied the old duke for the last ten years knew her husband better.
Once voluntarily became a pawn of a political marriage because of naΓ―ve worship, the former innocence has gradually been worn away by time, and now all that remains is a silent acceptance after seeing the reality, otherwise she can only leave the old duke's side - in fact, the most holy in the world does not need her, and she knows this very well.
She knew her husband better than many people, so her emotions weren't as excited as Edith's, and her mixed emotions merged into one, and in the end, all that was left was just a sigh......
The madman's laughter made the nobles fully realize the essence of this dragon - no matter how much he pretended to be like it on a normal day, this dragon was still essentially a madman, otherwise he would never have said those words on such a solemn occasion!
"Idiot!"
Not only one person heard it, but there was a whisper of scolding among the nobles, but by this time they were all pretending to be deaf and dumb, pretending not to hear anything.
The maid exhaled a little helplessly, sure enough, she still couldn't keep up with the dragon's thinking speed, one second she was still remembering the old duke, and said a lot of beautiful words, and the next second she directly announced the start of the ceremony, the turn was too big, and even she was almost stunned on the spot.
But fortunately, she was prepared from the beginning, and from the moment she handed over the voice to Cervantes, she knew what she was prepared to face in the future, because this black dragon never liked to follow the rules.
The black dragon did it, only caring about her own pleasure, rarely thinking about the consequences, but she wanted to clean up the aftermath of this stupid dragon, which has always been the case, and she has long been used to it.
"Today, we are gathered here. β
When the cheers had subsided, the maid stretched out her hand and pressed it, and the people began to fall silent.
"For the same purpose, Seth and I are the leaders, and you, the witnesses. β
The solemnity of being lost by Cervantes returned to the crowd, and they all looked up at the high platform in the square, or the phantom shadow projected into the sky.
The black dragon closed his mouth in amusement, and stood aside as an ornament.
"More than 800 years ago, this was the domain of the Arcane Empire, and after the tyrannical Arcanists were expelled from this world, it became a no-man's land. β
The maid's voice echoed throughout the city, and everyone could clearly hear what she was saying.
"Then, the mage was despised and spurned by most people because of his association with the Arcanists, and hundreds of years ago, a mage stood up and issued a call to all the mages, leading the mages who shared his own ideals to open up the wilderness and establish a country called 'Kolo', our former suzerain. β
"The founding king of Bertrand Reezel was a hero, and the nobles of the sages who pioneered the wilderness with him in order to give a place for the displaced mages and warlocks to settle down were heroes. β
Just like the lord, the people who looked at the shadow in the sky seemed to see the corners of the maid's mouth slightly upturned, and the smile on the corners of her mouth and eyes was full of irony.
"However, even if you are a 'noble', you can't be virtuous from generation to generation!"
As soon as these words came out, many people gasped, most of them were outsiders, even if they already knew the Sad Wind Territory very well, but outside the Sad Wind Territory, the aristocracy was still the most important ruling class, and their status was unshakable.
This is the first time they have heard of such a rebellious word.
Even if the head maid said the truth, no one would specifically pierce that film, and even if they all knew about it, they would never say it.
The nobles also frowned, displeasure was already written on their faces, even those nobles who had become supporters of maids intentionally or unintentionally, they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts.
Everybody knows this kind of thing, but no one will say it.
Everyone, smiles on their faces!
If it was before, of course, they didn't dare to echo it, and the head maid dared to say it was because she had that qualification, but if they dared to say it, then those noble lords would definitely be annoyed and angry.
Now, however, they have their own pride, and under the leadership of the head maid, they are the promoters of a new era.
Although they may not be aware of it themselves, they are now more confident than before!
"A few great nobles took the lead and united many nobles to launch a sudden rebellion, leaving Krylov I, who had just inherited the throne at that time, scrambling and overwhelmed. β
"Krylov I was a mischievous young man, and at the age of fifteen he left the throne and fled the palace to become a wandering adventurer, and it was at this time that the old duke of Morrigues became a mercenary after the war more than eight hundred years ago, wandering around the continent, and the 'virtuous king' and the old duke met. β
After the great nobles rebelled, Krylov I was struggling to cope, but at this time, the old duke appeared and joined the war in the name of Krylov I's best friend, the Sword Saint of the Sorrowful Winds, to help Krylov I put down the rebellion. Then, at the request of the 'Virtuous King', he came to guard the border of the kingdom, which is the origin of the 'Sad Wind Leader'. β
Even though they had heard it many times when it was popularized by science, people still listened to it with relish at this time, imagining the heroic appearance of the old duke, who was supposed to be a wandering mercenary, when he suddenly appeared on the battlefield as the 'Sorrowful Wind Sword Saint'.
Imagine the old duke defeating the nobles who started the rebellion with absolute strength, and then slashing them one by one under the sword.
Before they could recover from their imaginations, the maid had already continued: "Hundreds of years, even for the immortals, it is a long time, in these hundreds of years, a lot of things have happened, and the kingdom that was once inseparable from the Sorrowful Wind Leader has gradually widened the distance between us, and in the last hundred years, the Sorrowful Wind Territory is not so much a territory of the Korot Kingdom as a Dominion...... The time of separation has come. β
The maid let out a long sigh: "Although Seth and I have a good relationship with the current King, His Majesty Krylov III, and we have exchanged a lot of letters on weekdays, both we and Krylov III know that the time of separation has come. β
The maid raised her head and glanced ahead, and the people waited quietly with their mouths open, waiting for the words to come.
"The difference between the Grim Wind Leader and the Kolo Kingdom is too great, even if we have a good relationship with Krylov III, the gaps and differences that have gradually arisen over hundreds of years will be difficult to eliminate, so the time of separation has come!"
"Previously, Krylov III had already expressed his recognition and congratulations on the independence of the Sadwind Territory in letters, and now he has sent a mission to bring us his heartfelt congratulations. β
"So here you are today!"
The maid took a deep breath: "On this sunny day, we should first express our heavy condolences to the old duke who created this territory. β
The black dragon and the maid closed their eyes at the same time, their heads slightly lowered.
People don't know what kind of etiquette this is, but when they see that the lord and the maid have done it, they have also learned to bow their heads.
"And then!"
After opening her eyes at the same time, the maid said: "After expressing heavy condolences to the old duke, in accordance with the old duke's wishes, let us declare once again-"
Cervantes and the maid looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "The Duchy of the Winds of Sorrow, today, is established!"
Then, the applause was thunderous, and the cheers resounded in the sky!
