Holy Synod.教廷。Solemn and respectfulpalace.
肃穆的殿堂。Covers entirelycandlein all directions unable to makeallbathein the light, insteaddistinguished right from wrong, had a light and shadowtearingfeeling.
布满四处的蜡烛并没能让一切沐浴在光明之中,反而泾渭分明,产生了一种光与影的撕裂感。Clergybows the body, both handsholdtrays that are puttingtwocorrespondencepassed by the longcorridor, walkedfromout of the doorin a hurry. Thatstepis dexterousdoes not have the sound. Hearrives in front of the Popequickly, the kneesknelt.
一位神职人员躬着身,双手托着一个放着两份信函的托盘路过长长的走廊,匆匆从门外走了进来。那步伐轻巧得没有声响。他快步来到教宗面前,双膝跪了下去。„Sir, thisis came from to love the twoexpresses of Roypeninsula.”
“大人,这是来自爱罗伊半岛的两封急信。”
The Popeshuts tightlyboth eyescalmlyto sit. StandsinPopenearbyred clothesbishop of salutestoward the Pope, thenturns aroundto arrive in front of the clergy, put out a handto take uptwocorrespondence, disassembled, lookedone after another.
教宗紧闭双目静静地坐着。站在的教宗旁边的红衣主教朝着教宗行了个礼,然后转身走到神职人员面前,伸手拿起了两份信函,拆开,一封一封地看了起来。
The windinjectsfrom the palacegently, moves the candlelight in palace. The light and shadow in entiremain hallas ifdraggeneralin the wind. LikeHoly Synodat this moment.
风轻轻地从殿外吹入,吹动殿内的烛火。整个大殿中的光与影都仿佛在风中摇曳一般。如同此时此刻的教廷。Onlyread a letter/believes, red clothesbishophad staredin a big way the eye, held breathcold air. Disassembledanotherletter/believeshastily. Looks that foreheadis breaking into sweat.
只看了一封信,红衣主教已经瞪大了眼睛,倒吸了一口凉气。连忙拆开了另一封信。看完,那额头都在冒冷汗了。„What's wrong?” The Popecloses one's eyesto ask.
“怎么啦?”教宗闭着眼睛问。„Is the letter that the FiddeschurchandBaudteach.”Red clothesbishoprepliedrespectfully: „WhypaladinGraydoes not know, bringing the silver moonknightgroupto appeared loving the Roypeninsula, moreoverappearsin the battlefieldcoincidentally. Nowhehad gotten involved in the war of two countries, ordered the two countriestruce, andpledgedto preside over a duel, makingstation of two countriesask to be properly resolved.”
“是菲德斯教会和伯特教会的来信。”红衣主教恭敬地答道:“圣骑士格雷不知道为什么,带着银月骑士团出现在爱罗伊半岛,而且刚巧出现在战场上。现在他已经介入了两国的战争,勒令两国停战,并承诺主持一场决斗,让两国的述求都能得到公正的解决。”These words saying,anothersevenred clothesbishopon the scenewere ignorant.
这番话说完,在场的另外七名红衣主教都懵了。
The correspondencecirculated for perusalinred clothesbishop.
信函在红衣主教之间传阅了起来。„What does helike the Roypeninsulamaking? Shouldn'tstayin the Becherduchy?”
“他去爱罗伊半岛做什么?不是应该呆在贝希尔公国吗?”„Hethought that has been defeatedinIsaac, wantsto fight in one place after anotherto love the Roypeninsula? Reallywantsto strugglewithusinadequately.”
“难道他觉得在以撒已经落败,想转战爱罗伊半岛?真想跟我们争到底不成。”„KingFiddesandGrand DukeBaudreallyacceptedhisconditionunexpectedly, thisis simply inconceivable.”
“菲德斯国王和伯特大公居然真的接受了他的条件,这简直不可思议。”„Thatisbecauseinhishandhas the silver moonknightgroup, nowentirecontinentknowshiminLion Capitalbrilliant achievement. No onedoes not fearhim.”
“那是因为他手上有银月骑士团,现在整个大陆都知道他在狮王都的辉煌战绩了。没有人不怕他。”„This is really greatlytroublesome. The crisis of Isaacroyal familyjustrelieved, hereaches the handloves the Roypeninsula. Fire that so long ashe in a day, wecannot be saved. Can'twrest away the title of hispaladin?”
“这真是个大麻烦。以撒王室的危机刚解除,他又把手伸向爱罗伊半岛。只要他在一天,我们就有救不完的火。难道就不能褫夺他圣骑士的封号吗?”„Didn't the Andrewwizardhave the news?”
“安德鲁大法师还没有消息吗?”„No, absolutelydoes not have the news.”
“没有,完全没有消息。”Red clothesbishopmuch discussion. In the middle ofthisalsohasinitialstrengthrecommendingto makeGraypaladinformerIsaacbishopAnthony III. However, helowers the head, anythinghad not said.
红衣主教们纷纷议论了起来。这当中还有最初力荐让格雷成为圣骑士的前以撒主教安东尼三世。不过,他只是低着头,什么都没说。
The Popeopened the eyeslowly, extended a hand.
教宗缓缓睁开了眼睛,伸出了一只手。Twoletterswere gatheredrapidly, handed overin the hand of Popetogether.
两封信被迅速集合起来,一起交到了教宗的手上。
The Popelowers the headpartlyis narrowing the eye, lookscarefully,saidin a soft voice: „IfAndrewdeterminesto have an accident, thenhetoourhostilities, is definitely without a doubt.”
教宗低头半眯着眼睛,细细地看着,轻声道:“如果安德鲁确定出事,那么他对我们的敌意,肯定是毋庸置疑的。”„Ifsupposed that hehas the intense enmity...... red clothesbishopto hesitatetous”was saying: „That, he appeared liking the Roypeninsulainterventionwarto understand. Perhapshewantsthoroughlyto get rid ofus, replacesHoly Synod.”
“如果假设他对我们有强烈敌意的话……”一位红衣主教犹豫着说道:“那么,他出现在爱罗伊半岛干预战局就可以理解了。他也许是想彻底摆脱我们,取代教廷。”
This saying, red clothesbishopon the scenein an uproar.
这一说,在场红衣主教们都哗然了。„In the passing, arbitrationbetween countries, has been donebyus. Naturally, overwhelming majoritywere suppressedin the beginning stage. Developing the armybuilding upsituation, wedo not have the means. Heterminated a currentwar, thisprovedhisambitionsufficiently. This is conveying a newstoeveryone: Hisprestige, compared with the Pope, is higher than the cardinalinstitute.”
“在过往,国与国之间的仲裁,一直都是由我们来做的。当然,绝大部分都是在萌芽阶段就被扑灭。已经发展到部队集结地步的,我们也没有办法。他终止了一场正在发生的战事,这足以证明他的野心了。这是在向所有人传达一个讯息:他的威望,比教宗,比枢机院更高。”„Whatsignificance does hemakelike this?”Somepeopleasked.
“他这样做有什么意义呢?”有人问。„Naturallywas meaningful, now we controlling forcetovarious countriesare weakeningrapidly. WhythisFiddeskingdomand will the war of Baudduchy happen? It is not becausewetoloving the Roypeninsuladid lose the control? His is hittingourfaces. OrafterfillingourHoly Synodprestigedeclines the vacancy.”
“当然有意义了,现在我们对各国的控制力正在急速减弱。为什么这场菲德斯王国与伯特公国的战争会发生?不就是因为我们已经对爱罗伊半岛失去控制了吗?他这是在打我们的脸。或者说,在填补我们教廷威望衰退后产生的空缺。”„Butheeventuallyis only a person, has not given loyalty to hisclergy. Even the prestigeis high, is still onlyhisprestige.”
“但他终究只是一个人,没有效忠于他的神职人员。就算威望再高,也只是他一个人的威望。”„Sendspaladintoloving the Roypeninsula.” The Popesayssuddenly.
“派一位圣骑士到爱罗伊半岛去吧。”教宗忽然开口说道。Immediately, everyonewas peaceful, calmlyis looking at the Pope.
顿时,所有人都安静了下来,静静地望着教宗。
The Popeputson the twoletters in handnearbytablegently, stares at the ground that the frontis emptywith the profoundvision, saidin a soft voice: „Regardless ofhisgoalisanything, hisevery action and every movement, are bringing the hugeharmtous. Thisis we are unable to withstand. Meanwhile, weare unable to draw a linethoroughlywithhim. Sincebetweenweandhimare unable to communicate, thatattemptsto make the guardian angelcommunicate.”
教宗轻轻将手中的两封信放到一旁的桌案上,用深邃的目光凝视着前方空无一物的地面,轻声说道:“无论他的目的是什么,他的一举一动,都在给我们带来巨大的伤害。这是我们无法承受的。与此同时,我们又无法彻底与他划清界限。既然我们与他之间无法沟通,那就尝试着让守护天使去沟通吧。”„Makes...... the guardian angelcommunicate?”Red clothesbishopon the scenewas shocked.
“让……守护天使去沟通?”在场的红衣主教都愣住了。„Eachpaladinhas the guardian angel. IfIhave not remembered incorrectly, hisguardian angel, calledCatherine. It is not a verypowerfulangel. Even, it can be said thatinfiveguardian angelsweakest.”
“每一位圣骑士都有守护天使。如果我没记错,他的守护天使,叫凯瑟琳。并不是一位十分强大的天使。甚至,可以说是五位守护天使中最弱的一位。”„This...... possible? Wheremade a mistake?”Red clothesbishopinterrupted: „Hisguardian angelisweakestone, butheclearlyisin the middle ofallpaladinstrongestone. Whatat leastweseeisthis. Ievenoncefeltholy spiritin the drawingoffset frame.”
“这……怎么可能呢?是不是哪里搞错了?”一位红衣主教插嘴道:“他的守护天使是最弱的一位,可是他分明是所有圣骑士当中最强的一位。至少我们看到的是这样。我甚至都一度觉得圣灵在拉偏架了。”Red clothesbishopon the sceneopened the eye, calmlyis waiting for the view of Pope.
在场的红衣主教们都睁大了眼睛,静静地等待着教宗的说法。Slightlysilent, the Popesaidin a soft voice: „Thatishis ownstrength, is notholy spiritgrants. holy spirithas not toldmehisstrengthto originate, butremindedus, thiswasspecialpaladin, unlikeformerany. Weneedto learnto be togetherwithhim. Veryregrettable, so far, weas ifcould not findwith the way that heis together. Sinceweandheare unable to communicate, might as wellattempt, letsbetween the guardian angels and guardian angelscommunicates. Thismattercannotdragagain, is the war is, musthave a conclusion.”
稍稍沉默了一下,教宗轻声说道:“那都是他自己的力量,并不是圣灵赐予的。圣灵并没有告诉我他的力量来源,只是提醒我们,这是一位特殊的圣骑士,与之前的任何一位都不同。我们需要学会与他相处。很遗憾,到目前为止,我们似乎找不到跟他相处的方式。既然我们与他无法沟通,不如尝试着,让守护天使与守护天使之间去沟通。这件事不能再拖了,是战是和,必须有个结论。”„Canopen the war between angels?”Somepeopleaskedlow voice.
“要开启天使间的战争吗?”有人小声问。
The Popehad not replied.
教宗没有回答。
The windis blowinggently, the candlelightdrags, leaves behind a gullyon the oldface. Thatis the trace of years.
风轻轻地吹着,烛火摇曳,在苍老的脸上留下道道沟壑。那是岁月的痕迹。
......
……
The starry night, the wind on plainis blowingslowly, moves the flagflap flapto make noise.
星夜,平原上的风缓缓地吹着,吹动旗帜猎猎作响。Grayonelineinhillsidepiercedcamp.格雷一行在山坡上扎了营。Faces one anotherwiththeircampsdistantly, is a namedBarke'ssmall town. A veryordinarysmall town, but, is actually the focus of thiswar. At this moment, the entiresmall townlooksonlyhas the fragmentarylights. Shouldbemost people have gone to sleep.
与他们营地遥遥相望的,是一个名为巴克的小镇。一个非常普通的小镇,不过,却是本次战争的焦点。此时此刻,整个小镇看上去只剩下零星的灯火。应该是大部分人都已经入睡了吧。
The Graycampis located the east side, the small townis located the west, northAs forandsouth, thenrespectivelyisLucien V and camp of Jean IIarmy. The enormous and powerfultwocamps, seem like unexpectedly bigger than the scale of small town, evenat night, is still maintaining the highalert, brilliantly illuminated.格雷的营地位于东面,小镇位于西面,至于北面和南面,则分别是陆斯恩五世和吉恩二世军队的营地。浩浩荡荡的两个营地,看上去竟然比小镇的规模更大,即使是夜晚,也保持着高度的戒备,灯火通明。In the tent, tiredday of Shelleyhad gone to sleep. Sidepiled up withherto bring„blood of JonesandDora „”spoils of war that in the afternoonspelled ” to bringtoBach. Naturally, onsomeordinarythings, Barkeis only an ordinarysmall town, could not compareWhite City, could not compareLion Capital.
帐篷里,累了一天的雪莱已经入睡了。旁边堆满了她下午带着琼斯和朵拉到巴克上“血拼”带回来的“战利品”。当然,也就一些普通的东西而已,巴克只是一个再普通不过的小镇,比不了白城,更比不了狮王都。Graystandson the hillsideleans on the swordcalmlyto look into the distance, Carlsets upright the silver moon that flap flapis making noiseto haltgreatlyinhisbehind. Swayson behalf of the bloodyredmoonlightonthem.格雷站在山坡上拄着剑静静地眺望着,卡尔竖着猎猎作响的银月大旗站在他的身后。代表血腥的红色月光挥洒在他们身上。
The dwarvesare singing and dancingby the bonfire.
身后的矮人们正在篝火旁载歌载舞呢。Greathammermustdraw a silver moonknightto sayincessantly.棒槌非要拉着一名银月骑士滔滔不绝地说着。„Our...... is ourSirGray, soreally fierce? Oncontinent one of the onlyfivepaladin? Oh, no wonderhecanstop a wardirectly. The lyingtrough, wefollowed the extraordinarypersonprobably. BeforeIthoughthewas very mystical. Good, you are also very actually mystical, younevertake off the armor, does not needto sleep. However, if obtainspaladin that the godscare, thenthesewere the pediatricsnot? Ourdwarvesbelieve in the dwarfwar-godgenerally, as the paladinsubordinate, do weneedto be converted toholy spirit?”
“我们的……我们的格雷大人,真这么厉害?大陆上仅有的五位圣骑士之一?天哪,难怪他能直接制止一场战争了。卧槽,我们好像追随了了不起的人了。以前我只是觉得他很神秘。好吧,其实你们也很神秘,你们都从来不脱盔甲,也不用睡觉。不过,如果是得到神明眷顾的圣骑士的话,那么这些都是小儿科了不是吗?我们矮人一般都是信奉矮人战神的,身为圣骑士的下属,我们需要改信圣灵吗?”„Eldest child, the dwarfwar-godisourbeliefs, howcanchangecasually? Aiya!”
“老大,矮人战神是我们的信仰,怎么可以随便改变?哎呀!”Reversed the head, Greathammergave a front toothheadconveniently, saidwickedly: „Believing in the war-godis useful? Ourdwarfmountain valleycannot go back, holy spirit can actually blessthemto win a battle. Going to war to winthisnot is very flamboyant? Toowas really practical!”
扭转头,棒槌随手给了门牙一个脑瓜子,恶狠狠地说道:“信战神有什么用?我们连矮人山谷都回不去,圣灵却可以庇佑他们打胜仗。打仗能赢这还不够牛逼吗?实在太实用了!”
After the front toothis covering , a helplessness of brainface, being infatuated of Greathammerwhole face, as iffound the true meaning of life. The one sideknowsprofoundly the truthJoneslooks athimunemotionally, does not puncture.
门牙捂着后脑子一脸的无奈,棒槌满脸的陶醉,仿佛找到了人生的真谛。一旁深刻知道真相的琼斯面无表情地看着他,也不戳破。Graycontinuescalmlyto standbefore the campis looking into the distance.格雷继续静静地站在营地前眺望着。On the vastplaindoes not have the trees, withoutconstruction, withoutblocking. Alltakes in everything at a glance. Grayis looking into the twomilitary compounds of distant place, in the twomilitary compounds of distant place, somepeopleare definitely also looking intohimwithout a doubt. Thisevenwhiteincreased a strangeatmosphere. Probablythreefully-armedswordsmenare looking at each other, looked that whofirstdraws a swordto be the same.
辽阔的平原上没有树木,没有建筑,没有遮挡。所有的一切都一览无遗。格雷在眺望着远处的两个军营,毫无疑问地,远处的两个军营里,肯定也有人在眺望着他。这平白增添了一种奇怪的氛围。就好像三个全副武装的剑客对视着,就看谁先拔剑一样。
......
……„Royal Father.”Has exchangedArthur of casual attireto arriveis looking intoLucien V of Graycampbehind, saidin a soft voice: „Newshas transmittedcompletely, theyare catching up. However the time was too tight. Even iftheycanrushas scheduled, will not haveenoughtimerest. Thismeansthe day after tomorrowdueltime, theirconditions will not be good.”
“父王。”已经换上便装的亚瑟来到正在眺望格雷营地的陆斯恩五世身后,轻声说道:“消息已经全部传递出去了,他们正在赶来。不过时间实在太紧迫了。即使他们能如期赶到,也不会有足够的时间休息。这意味着后天决斗的时候,他们的状态不会特别好。”Has turned head, Lucien Vlooks atownsonvisiontwinkle saying: „It seems likehereallypreparedto letourfairduel. Substitutes the warwith the duel, thissimplyisabsurd. Butsuchabsurdmatter, it happened, wehave not resulted inelect. Youthinkagain,except forlooksto representusto go to battle the most outstandingmercenary, but alsothere areotherwhatmeansto promoteourwinning percentage.”
回过头,陆斯恩五世瞧着自己的儿子目光闪烁地说道:“看来他是真的准备让我们公平决斗了。用决斗替代战争,这简直是荒谬。但这么荒谬的事情,它就是发生了,我们还没得选。你再想想,除了把最优秀的佣兵找来代表我们出战,还有什么其他办法可以提升我们的胜率的。”Looked atonein the direction of Graycampfrom afar, Arthursaidin a soft voice: „Ithought that canstartfrom the body of paladin, heis a referee.”
远远地往格雷营地的方向看了一眼,亚瑟轻声说道:“我觉得可以从圣骑士的身上下手,他是裁判。”„From him? Hehas a liking for the degreasingsaltnot to enter.”
“从他身上下手?他看上去油盐不进。”„Does not enter, butwehad not found the truecrack. Inthisworldno oneis the oilsaltdoes not enter. Arrivesloves the Roypeninsula, does healwayshaveoneselfgoalright? Icantake the giftto visithis. So long asheis willing saying that wehad the means.”
“不进,只是我们没找到真正裂缝而已。这个世界上没有任何人是油盐不进的。来到爱罗伊半岛,他总有自己的目的不是吗?我可以带上礼物去拜访他一下。只要他愿意说出来,那我们就有办法了。”Lucien Vclapped on the shoulder of Arthurgently: „Ok, youtry.”陆斯恩五世轻轻拍了拍亚瑟的肩:“行,你去试试吧。”„Yes!”
“是!”
......
……Meanwhile, Jean IIis also looking into the direction of Graycamp.
与此同时,吉恩二世同样在眺望着格雷营地的方向。Wears the cape, the female who cannot see clearly the facial featuresarriveshisbehind, raises the skirtswayedto salutetohim.
一位穿着斗篷,看不清面容的女子来到他的身后,提着裙摆向他行了个礼。„Father.”
“父亲。”„Came?”
“过来了?”„Yes. Receives the fatheryourorder, the daughterimmediatelycaught up.”Thatis a bellgeneraltimbre, is mild, as if the sound of sounds of natureis common.
“是的。接到父亲您的命令,女儿就立即赶来了。”那是一个银铃一般的音色,却又温润无比,仿佛天籁之音一般。Points at the direction that Grayis by far, Jean IIsaid: „Saw, standsthatpersonunderflagpole.”
远远地指着格雷所在的方向,吉恩二世说道:“看到了没有,站在旗杆下的那个人。”„Saw.”
“看到了。”„Thatenjoys a good reputation incontinent, makingHoly Synodhave a headache aboutpaladinGray. Ido not know why hewill appearhere, but, hecamein brief. Perhapsthisis an opportunity. Idid not likeyoucommunicatingwiththeseyoungaristocrats, becauseIthought that theycannot be joined tomy daughter, even the prince, cannot be joined tomy daughtereven. Youare the heavenbestow the gift of Baudduchy, isBaud'streasure. NowIwantyouto solvehimforme, withanyway that youcanthink.”
“那是享誉大陆,让教廷头疼不已的圣骑士格雷。我也不知道他为什么会出现在这里,不过,总之他就是来了。或许这是个机会。我一直不喜欢你跟那些小贵族来往,因为我觉得他们配不上我的女儿,甚至即使是王子,也配不上我的女儿。你是上天赐给伯特公国的礼物,是伯特的瑰宝。现在我要你替我解决他,用你能想到的任何方式。”
The femaleslooked atGrayonefrom afar, lowers the head, withoutspeech.
女子远远地望了格雷一眼,低下头,没有说话。Under the moonlight, the Grayformis fuzzy, looked that is not quite clear. Actuallysilver moonflagis very conspicuous.
月色下,格雷的身影模模糊糊的,看不太清楚。倒是身后的银月大旗十分显眼。Jean IIdeeplyinspires, thensaid: „So long ashecanstanduscompletely, then, is not only thissmall town. Wewill swallow the entireFiddeskingdomhopefully, the arctic foxfamily, becomesmaster who loves the Roypeninsula. Therefore, thismatteris important, evenis more important than yourmylife. Understandsmymeaning?”吉恩二世深深吸了口气,接着说道:“只要他能完全站在我们这边,那么,不仅仅是这个小镇。我们将有希望吞下整个菲德斯王国,白狐家族,将成为爱罗伊半岛的主人。所以,这件事非常重要,甚至比你我的性命更加重要。明白我的意思吗?”Hesitantfor a long time, the femalerepliedin a soft voice: „Got it.”
犹豫了许久,女子才轻声回答道:“明白了。”
