The Amber Sword - 1449
But only a pair of muddy eyes remained, burning the most exuberant desire to survive in the dark. The old man reached out tremblingly, crossed the wooden fence, and grabbed his daughter’s hand.
“……is this real?”
Dilphary felt the big hand like a dry bark rubbing his hand, and tears could not help but finally came out of his eyes. The torment he had suffered since night and night seemed to be rewarded at this moment.
Yes, she is back.
Back to Yanbao.
On this land that gave birth to her.
When the north-south situation began to ease, she begged the princess to give her an army so that she could regain everything that belonged to her. Although Antitina hoped that she could wait until Brando came back, how could her father wait until that moment?
Fortunately, the lady of the staff still agreed to her request, and when she returned to the Northland, the eldest son of the king gave her all the help she could. Whether it was all this, or the fleet behind her, Dilfieri understood. All this is due to the kindness of the Lord Earl.
Perhaps the fateful encounter in Ampersel was the turning point for all this.
Master Martha never gave up on her, even if she threw herself into the embrace of darkness.
“Open the door of the cell!” She reluctantly let go of her father’s hand, and instead ordered with the majesty that the Earl Yanbao’s daughter should have.
The attendants did what they said, but Earl Yanbao seemed to be too weak. It was also possible that meeting with his daughter again exhausted all of his energy, and he had fallen asleep at the moment.
Dilphary did not dare to disturb, she motioned to the attendants to relax, and carefully send the Lord Earl to his room. He really needs a good rest, at least he doesn’t need to worry about it anymore.
In her memory, her father is a steadfast person who can rely on her to protect her from wind and rain. Perhaps it is this kind of perseverance that made him insist that he did not confide in the family despite the torture. secret.
And this ultimately saved his life.
The countess sighed slightly. She looked at the old man sleeping on the bed, then closed the door, turned and walked out. At the end of the corridor, on the terrace of the castle, two young officers were talking on the terrace. Seeing her coming out, they turned around and saluted.
“Mr. Manrique, you are Mr. Brando’s subordinate, you don’t have to be polite to me.”
“And Mr. Breson, so do you.”
Dilfiri knew the two young men in front of him. The former was the best among the captains trained by the Bugans for Valhalla, and one of the most trusted deputies of the staff. Antitina asked him and her Going to Yanbao together shows that Fir Shanling treats her with courtesy and attention.
The latter is Brando’s childhood companion. Although the two are said to have had feuds, they have since been relieved of their suspicion. Moreover, the two have their own futures, and everything in the past has long been followed. The wind is gone. The other party is Wang’s eldest son Levin deliberately selected to prove that she has the recognition of the Westfah royal family for the inheritance of Yanbao, but in fact, this young generation genius of Eruin, who has the title of “White Lion Sword”, also brought With the army-apparently Wang’s eldest son also understands that the situation in Yanbao at this time is tantamount to a rebellion.
But the anticipated battle did not occur along the way. Yanbao’s rebels seemed to have received the wind beforehand. Except for a slight resistance when regaining the family’s castle, everything was smooth sailing. Originally, Dilfieri was worried that her sinister uncle would take away his father, but Earl Yanbao seemed to have been forgotten in the corner of the dark prison. When they recovered the castle, they removed him from the damp. Rescued from the gloomy underground.
All this went so incredibly well, and it even made people feel a little uneasy. Dilphary couldn’t figure it out himself-her uncle, her father’s brother, where the usurper had gone.
The residents of Yanbao and the army seemed to have disappeared overnight.
Breson heard Dilphary mention the name of that person, and couldn’t help but shook his head. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of vicissitudes of the past in his heart. How many times have they thought of this day today. Captain Madden might not even dream of thinking that his three proud disciples would now become the three poles of the kingdom.
And the one who is the least effective among them is now the most accomplished, perhaps because of his origin, perhaps because of the identity of the descendants of Darus, but his ability to turn the tide in the battle of Ampersel is impossible for anyone. The miracle of denial.
“Brando, Freya, what are you doing now?”
Thinking of the guy who always didn’t look right in the past, at this moment, it also became a heavy memory pressed in my heart. Since the battle for Amperthel, he knew that he had lost the last opportunity in the fight with that nasty guy.
Therefore, he withdrew from that fight and came to the north alone, where he had a new beginning, a new love, and now he also has his own career and direction to fight for. And those feelings and memories of the past have now become the best in my heart, the imagination of the boyhood.
For a moment when Bresson was distracted, Manrique already bowed to Dilfieri: “You came just in time, Miss Dilfieri, we are discussing something related to you.”
“Oh, what’s the matter?”
“Look here,” Manrique said when he came to the terrace and pointed to a forest not far away. “These things are always a little weird. Are they always in this place?”
“No,” Dilfieri shook his head: “I have never seen these things, at least before I left Yanbao, there were no such things.”
It was a forest in the north of Yanbao, and in Dilphary’s memory, it was a woodland that was evergreen all year round. There is also a garden in the woodland, which carries the memory of her childhood. That piece of woodland, which was full of luxuriant flowers in the midsummer, will be stained with a layer of ink in the deep winter, and then it will start to snow. When the snow covers the land and the forest When it becomes snowy, it is the day when Yanbao goes hunting once a year.
She still remembers the crowded scenes, whether adults or children, will have a happy smile on their faces in the New Year, as if they are looking forward to the coming year.
But now, the forest has become distorted and terrifying. Purple crystal clusters grow in the forest. The surface of the bark also reflects an unnatural luster, showing a strange color under the moonlight; the cold light seems to be a ghost. His gaze made people shudder. And in the depths of the forest, stands an ancient ruin, a huge black building, pressing on everyone’s heart, making people feel depressed and unable to breathe.
“The ruins I have seen something similar in some areas north of Balta,” Bresson said suddenly at this time: “There are many places where these ruins appeared overnight, but scholars have not yet figured out them. I only suspect that it may be related to the death of the Black Moon not long ago.”
“Do you suspect that this place also appeared overnight?” Manrique asked: “The forest mutation may be related to these ruins?”
“Miss Dilphary’s answer also proved our guess.”
“No, I think the changes in the forest may have something else to do.”
“What’s the matter?” Both of them looked back at the earl’s daughter in unison.
“Before I left Yanbao, I had heard some rumors, such as monsters in the forest, huge crystals, etc.,” Dilfieri recalled. The shadows of the past seemed to cover her heart again, and she wrinkled tightly. Brows: “From that time on, people in the territory became panic-”
“Miss Dilfrey, do you have any scruples,” Breson said, “You might as well speak directly.”
The earl’s daughter hesitated. For a moment, she seemed a little weak, but she quickly became firm: “Mr. Manrique, Mr. Breson, because this is related to a secret of my family, and my father may be the reason for this. I have been skeptical about all this, but until today, I made up my mind to say it.”
“Miss Dilphary, if this is your family’s secret…”
“No, two, I can trust Mr. Brando, you are his subordinates and friends, I think I can trust you.”
“Entrust us? Miss Dilfield, forgive us for some confusion.”
“Please follow me.”
In the basement.
When Dilphary opened the dark wooden box, she felt the two people behind her subconsciously hold their breath.
“this……”
“This is?”
“This is the Lionheart Sword?”
“How can it be, it’s not…”
Both Bresson and Manrique had a look of astonishment on their faces.
The Earl’s daughter took a nostalgic look at the shining sword lying in the wooden box with a gentle gaze, and then reluctantly closed the box again.
She turned around, looked at the two people behind her, and said: “This is not the Lion Heart Sword, the Lion Heart Sword is just a fake.”
“what!?”
“This is related to the most important secret of the Yanbao family. You should understand the origin of my family. It is the product of the compromise between the Cruz people and the elves of St. Osor. The ancestors of our family migrated here from the Cruz Empire and established This native Yanbao earl collar.”
Dilfieri paused, and then continued: “You should understand that the lionheart sword was brought out by Xianjun Ake from the empire, and that sword was actually divided into three by the holy sword Odyssey. The product, because of the legacy left by Gilt, the king of flames, to one of his most trusted knights, if one day the Cruz people forget the glory of their ancestors, then the soul of the holy sword of Odyssey will leave his descendants. Go, find a piece of real pure land.”
“Among the rumors that have been passed down from generation to generation in my family, this will be true and credible, but it is related to the agreement between the King of Flame Gilt and another great man, it may be the sage Ellanta, or Gil Saint Osor, the Queen of the Wind, whom Te has been deeply in love with. Because of this agreement, my family brought another holy sword to this land. The guardian of the sword, everyone in the world thinks that we are the sword seat of the lion-hearted holy sword.”
