Speer Percysilenthas opened the mouthto saya while,„you are threatenorinvite?”斯佩尔.帕西沉默了一阵子才开口道,“你这是威胁还是邀请?”„Naturallyinvited,”Nightingalelet go saying that „your highnessdid not approve of forcing the methodurgedanywitch, in fact, I was also very repugnantthatset.”
“当然是邀请,”夜莺摊手道,“殿下并不赞同用胁迫的手段驱使任何一名女巫,事实上,我也很讨厌那一套。”„Ireject,”Speersaidwithout hesitation, „, ifheneedsmyhelp, canbringwitchto comeFallen Dragon Ridgegreatly, pays a visitby the etiquette of noble. Butdoes not send forcovertlysneaking intomycastle. Naturally, ifbrings to the Churchattention, Icannotassure the witchsecurity.”
“那我拒绝,”斯佩尔毫不犹豫地说道,“如果他真需要我的帮助,大可以带着女巫前来坠龙岭,以贵族的礼仪登门拜访。而不是派人偷偷摸摸溜进我的城堡。当然,如果引起教会注意的话,我可不敢保证女巫的安全。”Thisanswerdoes not stem fromNightingaleto expect, in factwantsto make the stranger who does not relatecomply withquiteawkwardrequest, generally speakingonly thenintimidatesandtempts with the promise of gaintwomethods, the formerdoes not wantto use, the latteralsohas more than enough--marquisPercyisLord of the city, upward is the boundaryterritoryprotectsagain, butyour highnessnot onlydoes not preparefiefto bestow the nobility, but also the plantakes backallenfeoffs the nobleauthority, is called the centralizationaccording tohisview. Thereforein disguised form, shefor the words that your highnessworks, insteadreducedownstatusin the traditionalnobleeye.
这个回答并不出乎夜莺所料,事实上想让一个毫无关系的陌生人答应颇为为难的请求,一般来说只有威逼与利诱两种手段,前者不想用,后者也用不了——帕西侯爵已是一城之主,再往上便是境域守护,而殿下不但不准备封地赐爵,还打算收回所有分封贵族的权力,按他的说法叫作中央集权。所以变相来说,她为殿下效力的话,在传统贵族眼里反而是缩减了自己的地位。As forfollowingYour HighnessRolandcreates a newworld, as well asresistsinWar of Divine Will the fearfulenemy, thesetold her sheestimateddoes not believe.
至于跟随罗兰殿下创造一个新世界,以及对抗神意之战中可怕的敌人,这些跟她说,她估计也不会相信。„Iunderstood,”Nightingalecurls the lip, „allowedmeto say goodbyefirst.”
“我明白了,”夜莺撇撇嘴,“那么容我先告辞了。”„Wait/Etc.......”Speerlooks likeappears the surprise, „...... This?”
“等等……”斯佩尔看起来显得十分诧异,“就……这样?”„Iam responsible forbringing the His Highness the Princeverbal message, nowyouknew, has given the answer, the dutynaturally has been accomplished,”shegrinned saying that „, otherwiseyouhope that Idid tie upyou?”
“我负责带来王子殿下的口信,现在您知道了,也给出了答复,任务自然算是完成了,”她咧嘴道,“不然您希望我把您绑回去吗?”„Howyouknow that myabilityis the magic powerchannel?”Marquishesitant, „...... Do yougo to the fjordislandswitchto havewiththatcrowd of planstoward?”
“你怎么知道我的能力是魔力通道?”侯爵犹豫了下,“……你跟那群打算前往峡湾诸岛的女巫有过来往?”„Youguessright, thatcrowd of witchleaderLady Tilly Wimbledon, now in Border Town, resistsMonths of DemonswithownElder Brothertogether,”Nightingaleshrugs, „your highnesshas also learnedyournewsfromherthere.”
“您猜得没错,那群女巫的领袖提莉.温布顿大人,如今正待在边陲镇,和自己的哥哥一同对抗邪魔之月,”夜莺耸耸肩,“殿下也是从她那里得知了您的消息。”„Haven't theygone to the fjord?”
“她们没有去峡湾?”„No, before theygo to the fjord, does not know that Your HighnessRolandhad stood firminWestern Region, aftersettling down inSleeping Islandhad the relation,”shehas summarized the process of two sidesallianceapproximately, „thisLady Tillygoes toWestern Region, was invitedto comebyhim, is the same withyou.”
“不,她们去峡湾之前,并不知道罗兰殿下已经在西境站稳了脚跟,直到定居沉睡岛后才有了联系,”她将两边联盟的过程大致简述了一遍,“这次提莉大人前往西境,也是受他邀请而来,和您一样。”„Fourth Princehereally...... Established the average personcoexistentsystem of witchandin the territory?”Speerknits the browsto ask, obviouslydoes not believegreatly.
“四王子他真的……在领地里建立起了女巫和普通人共存的制度?”斯佩尔皱眉问道,显然对此不大相信。„Not only that but alsohas expelledhisterritory the Churchinfluence,”Nightingalesaid with a smile, „presentBorder Townlives more than tenwitch, the townspeopleis becoming accustomed to theirexistences, aboutthis, Ineverlay.”
“不仅如此,还把教会势力赶出了他的领地,”夜莺微笑道,“现在边陲镇生活着十多名女巫,镇民对她们的存在习以为常,关于这点,我从来不说谎。”„......”Marquisstands up, giveshera cup of tea, „cantellmesome, how does heachievethis?”
“……”侯爵站起身,给她倒了杯茶,“能多告诉我一些吗,他是怎么做到这点的?”„Ifyouwantto know,”Nightingalehas turned around, turns backto the tablesits down. Perhapsthesefactscannot change the decision of opposite party, butdeepenseach otherunderstanding is always not a misdemeanor, shedecided that formsWitch Union and sameDuke Ryanwar under your highness, as well asregainsgovernmentsituation after Longsong Strongholdto narratewith emphasis, as the matter stands the opposite party can also understandwitchapproximatelyin the small townsituation. When the lateryour highnessunifiesGreycastle, thismarquiswitchshouldnot maketoo the fearlessresistance.
“如果您想知道的话,”夜莺转过身,重新走回到桌边坐下。这些事迹或许改变不了对方的决定,不过加深彼此的了解总不是件坏事,她决定把殿下组建女巫联盟、同莱恩公爵的战争、以及收复长歌要塞后的治理情况重点讲述下,这样一来对方也能大致明白女巫在小镇的处境。等到以后殿下统一灰堡时,这位女巫侯爵应该不会做太多无畏的抵抗。At this moment, outside the windowhears the rapidknockingsuddenly.
就在这时,窗户外忽然传来急促的敲击声。„Thisis......”SpeerlookssurprisedlytoNightingale.
“这是……”斯佩尔惊讶地望向夜莺。
The lattershoves open the window, squats outside is really Macy, „dangerousgu! Lightninghas discoveredaccident/surprisesituationgu!”
后者推开窗子,蹲在外面的果然是麦茜,“危险咕!闪电发现了意外情况咕!”„Accidentsentiment of?”
“出了什么事情?”„A Judgement Armyteamis catching up withgutoward the castle!” The pigeonflaps the wings saying that „at leasthas more than 20people of gu!”
“一支审判军队伍正在朝城堡赶来咕!”鸽子拍着翅膀道,“至少有20多人咕!”„ChurchJudgement Army?”Nightingalehas turned head, knits the brows saying that „thisislooksyour?”
“教会审判军?”夜莺回过头,皱眉道,“这是来找您的?”„No...... Ihave not made an appointment with the Churchpriesttoday,”marquisalsoappearsespeciallyhas doubts, „wasyourwhereaboutsis discovered?”
“不……我今天并没有约见教会祭司,”侯爵也显得格外疑惑,“难道是你们的行踪被发现了?”„Is unlikely,”sheshook the head, „, only ifChurchhas the ability of surveillanceskyeachbird.”
“不大可能,”她摇了摇头,“除非教会有监视天空每一只鸟儿的能力。”„Thathad felt strange......”Speerhesitates saying that „, if looks forme, shouldnot set outsomanyJudgement Armyto be right, thisto the Fallen Dragon Ridgechurch was almost the completemanpower.”
“那就奇怪了……”斯佩尔沉吟道,“如果是来找我的话,应该不会出动如此多审判军才对,这对坠龙岭教堂来说几乎是全部的人手了。”„Youalsoinwhat? Theysoonentered the castlearea!” The goldenformsneaks intofrom the windowtogether, dexterousfallingsideNightingale, isLightning.
“你们还在等什么?他们快要进入城堡区了!”一道金色的身影从窗口窜入,轻巧的落在夜莺身边,正是闪电。„Although not clearsituation, butIsuggested that youshouldfirstevade,”Nightingalewhispered, „ormakespersonal guardblockthemoutside the castle, inquired that the clearreasonsaidagain.”
“虽然不清楚情况,但我建议您最好还是先避一避,”夜莺沉声道,“或者让亲卫把他们拦在城堡外面,打听清楚缘由再说。”„Hereismycastle, where can Ievadeto go? Relax, withoutmypermission, thisgroup of fellowscannot come, otherwisebeforehandthesewitchmyalsoimpossibleprotects,”Speersighed, „was onlythismeets could stop...... Ifyourtimeis nottoohurried, Ithink......”
“这里是我的城堡,我又能避到哪里去?放心,没有我的允许,这群家伙进不来的,不然以前那些女巫我也不可能保护下来,”斯佩尔叹了口气,“只是这场见面可能要到此为止了……如果你们时间不是太匆忙的话,我想……”Herwordsjusttold only half, under the castlehas resounded the chaossound of footsteps, evenalsohas the lightcry that the swordjunctionstrikes, appearsespeciallyclearin the castle in insertingmountain massif. The marquislookcannot help butchanges, „whoputstheircome in? Guards!”
她话刚说到一半,城堡底下已经响起了纷乱的脚步声,甚至还有刀剑交击的轻鸣,在嵌入山体中的城堡里显得格外清晰。侯爵神色不由得一变,“谁放他们进来的?卫兵!”Speercalledseveralnamescontinually, butoutsidenobodyresponds, but the sound of footstepswas getting more and more near.斯佩尔连喊了几个名字,可外面没有一个人作出回应,而脚步声越来越近了。„It seems liketheycometoyou,”Nightingalehas given a hand signaltowardLightning, remindedherto leavein advance, „the presentwalksalsowith enough time, wecanprotectyoursecurity.”
“看来他们是冲着您来的,”夜莺朝闪电做了个手势,提醒她先行离开,“现在走还来得及,我们可以保护您的安全。”„No, whichmydoes not go! Hereismyterritory, howtheydaresodissolute--”
“不,我哪儿也不去!这里是我的领地,他们怎么敢如此放肆——”
The voicehas not fallen, the doorbangwas hit, onecrowd of fully-armedJudgement Warriorwalkedcome in, theyare lifting the swordshield, encirclesSirfeudal lord.
话音未落,房门砰的一声被撞开,一群全副武装的审判武士走了进来,他们举着剑盾,将领主大人团团围住。Meanwhile, Nightingalehiddenentersin the dense fog, moves sidewaysto fall back onto approachposition--here of corneralreadyto facilitateto flee, suitssituation in observationroom. ShenotesLightningandMacyhas not leftsimilarly, the formeris finding out the headfrom the windoweave, peeps at the action of enemy.

与此同时,夜莺隐入迷雾之中,一个闪身退到靠近墙角的位置——这里既方便逃离,也适合观察房间内的情况。她注意到闪电和麦茜同样没有离开,前者正从窗檐上方探出脑袋,窥视敌人的举动。后者干脆蹲在房梁顶端,有条不紊地打理着自己的翅膀。

这两个小鬼,简直有些肆意妄为了,回去得让殿下好好管教下她们才行……她无奈地摇摇头,将目光移向教会的审判武士——对方各个佩戴有神罚之石,无光的黑洞交互交叠在一起,将斯佩尔完全遮蔽起来,她只能听到侯爵发出愤怒的斥责,“雷德温,你疯了吗,竟然擅自把他们带进我的城堡?”„Naturallydoes not have, mybig sister,” a voice of manresoundsfrom the crowd, „fatherwas mistaken, will pass to a Devillackey the title, Iam correctinghismistake.”
“当然没有,我的老姐,”一名男子的声音从人群中响起,“父亲看走了眼,才会将爵位传给一名魔鬼爪牙,我只是在纠正他的错误而已。”
