Chapter 130tip of the iceberg
第130章冰山一角AsRoyal FamilyMage, Almond did not remember oneselfwereseveraltimeentersthismagnificentpalace.
作为一个王家法师,阿蒙德已经不记得自己是第几次走进这辉煌的殿堂了。
A smoothmarblefloorcharacterspreads out, inspotlessgroundcleanevencansee the surroundings of oldMagecorner of the eye, decorates the luxuriouscrystal chandelierto set up in an array, the brightandgentlelightgivespeople a warmcomfortablefeeling. The lightfragrancelingersinall around, brings the warmauspiciousaura. The heavywooden doorwas closedslowly, has made the low and deepsound. HoweverAlmondhas not shownslightly the tenseexpression, reorganization that hesmilesunderonstraightbright redMagerobe, thisforwardarrivesto liebeforethatyoung lady on velvetsofa, slightlylowered the head.
平滑的大理石地板一字扑开,一尘不染的地面上干净的甚至可以看见老法师眼角的周围,装饰豪华的水晶吊灯一字排开,明亮而柔和的灯光给人一种温暖舒适的感觉。淡淡的香气在四周徘徊,带来温馨祥和的气息。身后厚重的木门缓缓关闭,发出了低沉的声响。不过阿蒙德并没有露出丝毫紧张的表情,他微笑的整理了下自己身上笔挺的鲜红法师袍,这才向前走到卧在天鹅绒沙发上的那位小姐面前,微微的低下头去。„Your Highness.”
“殿下。”„Hello, Official Almond.”
“您好,阿蒙德卿。”Lydiacommonlazylying down there, both eyessemi-closure, the gaze of faint smilepresentold man.莉蒂亚庸懒的躺在那里,双目半闭,似笑非笑的注视着眼前的老人。„In spite of being very busycalledyou, but alsohopes that do not blame.”
“在百忙之中把您召来,还希望您不要怪罪。”„Wherewords, Your Highness.”
“哪里的话,殿下。”Almondraised the head, looks in the vision of young girlto be manyseveralpoints of gentleness.阿蒙德抬起头,望着少女的目光中多了几分柔和。„Servedas one Royal Familymemberfor generations, Iwill certainly not rejectyourinvitation.”
“作为一个世世代代服务于王室的成员,我当然不会拒绝您的邀请。”„Thisis good, ifhas delayedyourimportanttraveling schedule, theninmyalsounderstandingrestless.”
“这样就好,若是耽搁了你重要的行程,那么我也会心里不安的。”
The young girlswere saying, slowlysitsto set out, has no timepure white, toshould notpresent the four limbsinthisworldstretchesperfectlysimplyfrom the tissue, the movement that sixlightwingsalsofollow the young girlappearsslowly, bringsto the main hallinwipes the holycolor. Butlooks atyoung girl'sperformance, Almondis smiling bitterlyshaking the head. Hehas been used tothisyoung ladyoptional of anytime and anywhere, has not succeeded the position of Grand Dukeinher, isownstudenttime, Almondalsoremindedherseveraltimes to pay attention toownwords and deeds. Howeverregarding the young girl, sheclearlyhas the differentopinions.
少女说着,缓缓的坐起身来,洁白无暇,完美到简直不应该出现在这个世界上的四肢从薄纱下舒展开来,六枚光翼也伴随着少女的动作缓缓浮现,给大殿之中带来一抹圣洁的色彩。而望着少女的表现,阿蒙德苦笑着摇了摇头。他已经习惯了这位小姐随时随地的随意,在她还没有继任大公之位,还是自己的学生的时候,阿蒙德也曾经提醒过她好几次要注意自己的言行举止。不过对于少女而言,她显然对此有不同的见解。„Teacher Almond, mybeautifulisfuses togetherwithbeautiful of thisworld, covers upbeautifullythistypeis the evil, the matter of whatowingheartsinceIhave not done, thendisplays itselfopen and aboveboardis not? Sincemyexistencecanmakemore beautiful, thenI who thisworldchangesalsodo hold truebyrefusingto show itself?”
“阿蒙德老师,我的美与这个世界的美是融为一体的,把这种美丽遮掩起来才是罪恶,既然我本人没有做什么亏心之事,那么堂堂正正的表现自己不是更好吗?既然我的存在能够让这个世界变的更加美丽,那么我又有什么理由拒绝展现自己呢?”Thisislistensinother peopleto the extremewordsextremely arrogantly, butsaysfrom the presentyoung girlmouth is actually obviouslyis so natural. Sheforeverhas filledself-confidently, prouddoes not allowanybodyto guideownwill.
这是在旁人听来狂妄到极点的话,不过从眼前的少女口中说出却是显的那么理所当然。她永远都是那么充满了自信,骄傲的不允许任何人来引导自己的意志。Naturally, the outsideregardingthisyoung lady'sappraisalnevergoodmany, slutty, the adjective that the cruelsuchwords and expressionsmostoftenpresent, even ifso, the young girlstillsticks to one's own way of doing things, has not caredtheserumorpoorlanguagescompletely———perhapsbecause of this, shecanbe successful that sofocuses attention on.
当然,外界对于这位小姐的评价从来没有好多少,放荡,残暴这样的词语是最常出现的形容词,不过即便如此,少女依然我行我素,完全没有将那些流言菲语放在心上———或许正因为如此,她才能够获得如此瞩目的成功。„, may I ask did Your Highnesssummonmeto come, whatmatterto havesuddenly?”
“那么,请问殿下忽然召见我来,有什么事吗?”„Isthis.”
“是这样的。”
The young girlshave traded a movement, sitson the sofa, a grinningboth handscheek, is looking atpresentwhite beardoldMage.
少女换了个动作,坐在沙发上,笑嘻嘻的双手支腮,望着眼前的白胡子老法师。„BeforeIaskedthatmatter that youdid, now the situationchanges.”
“之前我拜托你去做的那件事,现在情况有变。”"Oh?"“哦?”Hearshere, Almondslightly surprised, buthehas not askedimmediately, butlooking pensiveis looking atLydia, is waiting forthisyoung lady'sfollowingspeech. Heis very clear, Lydiadoes not work the person who does not consider, althoughinthisGrand Dukenormallylooks likeleisurely and carefreesloppy, extravagant, but ifthereforeregardsthattypesimplemindedher, relies on the person who the instinctenjoys the pleasuremerely, thatcandieis very miserable.
听到这里,阿蒙德微微一愣,但是他并没有立刻发问,而是若有所思的望着莉蒂亚,等待着这位小姐接下来的发言。他很清楚,莉蒂亚并不是做事不加考虑的人,虽然这位大公平日里看起来悠闲散漫,穷奢极欲,但是如果因此而将她当成那种头脑简单,仅仅凭借本能享受乐趣的人,那么可是会死的很惨的。Almondstillremembersnow,at a matter that Lydiahadat age 12, at that timeshesucceeded the position of Grand Dukeis abouttwoyears, the statusis not steady, butatthat time, originallylets the old minister of duty of GeneralDukedomto resignbecause of the sicknesssuddenly, causingthisto grasp an imperial thronevacancy of military authority of country. Butlooks likeinmanypeople, thisis the high-rankobtains the authoritymostgood opportunity, ifcanhave the military authority, thenmeansoneselfmayvery muchbecomes the entireMoon Dukedomsecretruler, after allat that timeLydiawas about12 years old, whowhatever, does not believe a 12-year-oldgirlcanverygoodled a country, especiallyinsuchmilitary administrationwantedin the choice of positionisso. Naturally, at that timealso many peopleexpected that controlsLydiataking advantage ofthishigh-rank, as the matter stands the handgrasps the power, but can also in an incomeroomthisentirecontinentmost beautifulyoung girls, it may be said thatkill two birds with one stone, like this good opportunityno oneto be willingto miss.阿蒙德现在还记得,在莉蒂亚12岁时所发生的一件事,当时她继任大公之位不过两年,地位不稳,而就在那时,原本就任公国大将军之职的老臣忽然因病辞职,导致这个掌握一国之军权的大位空缺了下来。而在很多人看来,这正是自己上位获得权力的最好机会,如果能够掌握军权,那么就意味着自己很有可能成为整个穆恩公国的幕后统治者,毕竟当时莉蒂亚才不过12岁,任凭谁来看,都不相信一个12岁的女孩子能够很好的率领一个国家,特别是在这样的军政要位的选择上更是如此。当然,那个时候也不乏有人期望借此上位控制莉蒂亚,这样一来自己手握大权,还能够把这个全大陆最美丽的少女之一收入房中,可谓是一举两得,这样的好机会谁都不愿意错过。Butfinally, the contender in thispositionhas placed the thingtwoborder legionlongbodies. At that timemanypeoplebelieve,WesternLegion Commandermightobtainthispositionvery much. Because since hehas taken officefor several years, leadershiparmytimescontinuouslyare defeatedother families, andexpelledthesetryto invade. ButEasternLegion Commander, is actually a loud farthas not let for these years off. Alsobecause of this, manypeoplethink that westernLegion Commanderperforms high service through hard work, thisposition is almost settled.
而最终,这个位置的争夺者则是放在了东西两位边境军团长的身上。当时不少人都认为,西方军团长很有可能获得这个位置。因为他上任数年以来,连续不断的率领军队一次次打败并且驱逐了那些试图入侵的外族。而东方军团长这么多年以来,却是连个响屁都没有放过。也正因为如此,不少人都认为西军团长劳苦功高,这个位置几乎是板上钉钉。However the finalresultactuallycompletelystems from the anticipation of allpeople, was recalledwhentwoLegion Commander, andsoonofficiallywill appointgeneral, silentLydiainthisdisturbanceactuallysuddenlyhas madea series ofshockinghad decided that ———hernot onlydirect commissionEasternborder legionlengthis an Great General, meanwhiletoharm the name of countrylongto infiltrate the dungeonWesternborder legionat the scene.
但是最终的结果却完全出乎所有人的意料,就在两位军团长被召回,并且即将正式任命将军一职时,一直在这场风波中沉默的莉蒂亚却是忽然作出了一系列让人大跌眼镜的决定———她不仅直接任命东方边境军团长为大将军,同时还以危害国家的名义将西方边境军团长当场打入地牢。This matter, the peoplein an uproar. Manypeoplecannot think that the mattersuddenlycame180degreesshallowturnunexpectedly, suddenlyaskedinjusticeto haveit, the protesterhadit, the opponentalsohadit, theythoughtthislittle girl, althoughwas young, but was actually the right**extremelyheavy, shewas worried aboutWesternLegion CommandermerittallZhenzhu, thereforeahead of timemade a move. HoweverLydiaactuallyonce moreremained silentintheseprotests———onemonthlater.
此事一出,众人哗然。不少人根本想不到事情居然一时间来了个180度大转弯,一时间叫冤者有之,抗议者有之,反对者也有之,他们认为这个小女孩虽然年纪小,但是却是权利**极重,她担心西方军团长功高震主,所以才提前出手。但是莉蒂亚却在这些抗议声中再次保持了沉默———直到一个月之后。Onemonthlater, the interrogationresultmakesallpeoplebe startled, reason thatoriginally the westernborder legionlongtheseyears the military exploitis countless , because he chip that toobtainto be promoted, oftenintentionallyprovokestheseother familiesto attack, then killsthem, thusgains the military exploit, althoughbecause ofso, foreigndangereliminatedmuch. Howeverin turn, becausegoes on an expeditionin successive years, the resident in Westernborder regionis actually miserable beyond description, although the warishitsbysoldier, buttheirsimilarlyheredisasteris serious. On the contrarycomes, the Easternborder regionis always gentle, the residentandoverseaspeople of live in peace with each other, since the safenaturallydoes not have the military exploit to report, because of this, thatLegion Commanderforeverfallson the honorlistinend.
一个月之后,审讯结果让所有人大吃一惊,原来西边境军团长这些年来之所以军功累累,是因为他为了获得升迁的筹码,不时故意去挑衅那些外族进攻,然后再将他们杀害,从而获取军功,虽然因为如此,境外的危险消除了不少。但是反过来,因为连年征战,西方边境地区的居民却是苦不堪言,虽然战争是由军人去打的,但是他们却同样在这里受灾严重。相反过来,东方边境地区一向平和,居民与境外之民相安无事,既然无事自然就没有军功可报,也正因为如此,那位军团长才在荣誉榜上永远掉在末尾。Butuntilthis time, the dissociationoutside the matter, has enjoyed the beauties of natureto view the flowerskeeping birdsLydiato make a moveall dayfinally.
而直到这时,一直游离于事外,整天游山玩水赏花养鸟的莉蒂亚终于出手了。During the trial resultissues, inentireWesternborder legionrelates the closemilitary officerto be arrestedwiththatLegion Commandercompletely, but before these, asked the person of injusticenot to have the exceptionforthatLegion Commanderprotest, inshortdozensdays, includingNoble and military officer, altogether580peoplewere grasped, thencompletelyexecuted.
在审判结果下达的同时,整个西方边境军团中与那位军团长关系密切的军官全部被逮捕,而那些之前为那位军团长抗议叫冤的人也没有例外,短短数十天的时间内,包括贵族和军官在内,一共有580人被抓,接着全部处死。Buttheirfront leg was just executed, back legsuccessorsatintheirposition.
而他们前脚刚刚被处死,后脚继任者就已经坐在了他们的位置上。Alsoisafter this, nobodyunderestimatesthiswearexpositionagain, all daylikesluxuriously, beautifullywithyoung girl of leading a life of comfort.
也就是在这之后,再也没有人小看这个穿着暴露,整天喜欢奢华,美丽与享乐的少女了。Butnow, Almondknows certainly that currentDukedomisanysituation, because of this, Lydiawill requesthimto leaveto gopersonally, butshesuddenlysaidnow.........Isbecause the matterdoes havechanges?
而现在,阿蒙德当然知道目前的公国是个什么情况,也正因为如此,莉蒂亚才会要求他亲自动身前往,但是现在她忽然这么说………是因为事情有变吗?„Good that youguess, Official Almond.”
“你猜的不错,阿蒙德卿。”As ifguessed correctlyhistrue meaningfrom the oldMagelook, Lydiahas smiledhas been making the reply.
仿佛从老法师的眼神中猜出了他的真意,莉蒂亚微笑着做出了回答。„According toinformation that Iobtained, the dangeris relieved.”
“根据我所获得的情报,危险已经被解除了。”"Oh?"“哦?”Hearshere, oldMageslightly surprised, hefrownedafterward.
听到这里,老法师微微一愣,随后他皱起了眉头。„Yourmeaningis............”
“您的意思是…………”„Thisis the report that Ijustreceivedthis morning.”
“这是我今天早上刚刚收到的报告。”Lydiawas saying, puts out a hand, had the letter of finebeautifulpatternto advance the oldMagefrontone, afterwardshetook upon the tableto send out the black tea of fragranceconveniently, eyes narrowedis tasting.莉蒂亚说着,伸出手去,将一封带有精致美丽花纹的信件推到了老法师的面前,随后她顺手拿起桌上散发着香气的红茶,眯起眼睛品尝起来。
The letter on oldMagerespectfultaking uptabledisassembles, afterward inside startscarefullyto read the information, althoughinhissurfacenotanychange, insharplook that butsuddenlychangesfromoldMage, canrealize his sentiment of surprised. Afterward, the letter in hisputting downhandslowly, looksonce moreto the presentyoung girl.
老法师恭敬的拿起桌上的信件拆开,随后开始仔细阅读内里的情报,虽然他的面上并没有任何变化,但是从老法师忽然变的锐利的眼神中,就可以察觉到他的惊讶之情。随后,他缓缓的放下手中的信件,再次望向眼前的少女。„How do youthink? Official Almond?”
“你觉得如何?阿蒙德卿?”„Ifthisis a joke, thenpleasepermitmylaugh out loud.”
“如果这是个笑话的话,那么请允许我笑出声来。”OldMageis smiling bitterlyshaking the head, appearance that howeverhisexpressionactuallycompletelylikelyis notcoming out that smiles.
老法师苦笑着摇了摇头,但是他的表情却完全不象是笑的出来的样子。„Ifthisis the fact............I can only say,was too inconceivable.”
“如果这是事实…………那我只能够说,太不可思议了。”„Unknownthisworldis atmarvelously.”
“未知正是这个世界的奇妙所在。”Butfacing the sigh of oldMage, the expression that Lydiahas revealedenjoyment.
而面对老法师的感叹,莉蒂亚则露出了一副享受的表情。„Whenyouopendoor, youneverknow that followingis hidinganything, thisis the most interestingplace. Ienjoythiswonderfulunknown, itwill makemefeelanxious, excited, for me, thisisverynecessary. Myoriginallythinks that mylovablesubordinatewill handlethesematters, buthas not thought that nowwill actually givemethis kind ofunexpected joy.”
“当你打开一扇门时,你永远不会知道后面隐藏着什么,这才是最有趣的地方。我非常享受这种美妙的未知,它会让我觉得紧张,兴奋,对我来说,这是很必要的。我原本以为我可爱的部下会搞定这些事情,但是现在没想到却会给我这样一个意外之喜。”„But............”
“可是…………”OldMageas if no Lydiato be so optimistic, hetraces himselfto hangtowhite beard of waist, complexionis dignified.
老法师似乎并没有莉蒂亚那么乐观,他摸了摸自己已经垂到腰部的白胡子,面色凝重。„PleaseIspeak frankly, Your Highness, Ido not believe,ordinaryMercenary Groupcaneliminateoneto step intoMiddle Ring3-LayerMageeasily, even if I, perhaps must spendturns the strength to achieve. Ithink that thesecanhaveanything.........”
“请恕我直言,殿下,我还是不认为,普通的佣兵团能够轻而易举的消灭一位已经踏入中环三层的法师,就算是我,恐怕也要费一翻力气才能够做到。我认为这其中会不会有什么………”„Iunderstandyourmeaning, Official Almond.”
“我明白你的意思,阿蒙德卿。”Lydiaput out a handslightly, has interrupted the oldMagewords.莉蒂亚微微伸手,打断了老法师的话。„This is also the reason that Isummonedyouto come...... Ibelieve that mylovablesubordinate'sreportis correct, moreovertheyhave also broughtsomeevidence, theseenoughwemake the judgment. Ithink that youalsolooked, there is a person...... Iscore of thismatter.”
“这也是我召唤你来的原因……我相信我可爱的部下的报告是正确的,而且他们也带来了一些证据,这些足够我们做出判断。我想你也已经看出来了,有一个人……是这件事的核心。”„Thatyoungster that calledRhodes Ellant?”
“那个叫罗德.艾兰特的年轻人?”Hearshere, an oldMageslightlyponder, afterwardrapidasked.
听到这里,老法师微一沉思,随后迅速开口询问道。„Right. According toinformation that Iobtain, heis notfirsttimehas such done, savesfrom the dangerParfield AreaMercenary Group, anddestroyedthemto attempt the plan that sent forpermeating. In addition when afterwardheandEmerald Tearshostilitysuddenly, as well aseliminatedmousemotion———to connectfinallyinall thesetogether, Ido not think that thiswas the chance occurrence, showedaccording to the information,thisyoungsterarrived atDeep Rock Citymonth, butKingdom of Lightpainstakingly plannedoneyear of planactuallyalmostto be destroyedbyhim, Ithink that thistoold mister that Parliamentthatpersonalitywas irritable, certainlywas not a smallattack.”
“没错。根据我所获得的情报,他已经不是第一次这么做了,将帕菲尔德地区的佣兵团从危险中拯救出来,并且破坏了他们试图派人渗入的计划。再加上后来他与翡翠之泪忽然的敌对行动,以及最后消灭老鼠时的行动———把这一切串联在一起,我不认为这是偶发事件,根据情报显示,这个年轻人来到深石城不过把个月,但是光之国苦心经营了一年的计划却已经几乎完全被他摧毁,我想这对议会那位性情急躁的老先生来说,一定是个不小的打击。”
Here, Lydiacovers mouthlightly, lightly chuckled.
说到这里,莉蒂亚轻捂着嘴,轻笑起来。„Abouthisstatus.........Is true?”
“关于他的身份………属实吗?”„Ihad inquiredto the Eastern Mountainarea, buttheiras alwayshad not repliedtome. Howeverthisis unimportant, more importantly, thisyoungstermayknow the Kingdom of Light'splanvery much, moreoverhetodestroythisplanspeciallycomes———Inot to care abouthisstatusorigin, sincecanbringlike thispleasantly surprisedtome, thenIthink that heshouldnot beourenemies.”
“我已经向东方山原地区询问过,不过他们一如既往的并没有给我回答。但是这并不重要,重要的是,这个年轻人很有可能知道光之国的计划,而且他是特意为破坏这个计划而来———我不在乎他的身份来历,既然能够给我带来这样的惊喜,那么我想他应该不会是我们的敌人。”„That, yourmeaningis......”
“那么,您的意思是……”
The wordsspoke ofhere, oldMagehad guessed correctlyindistinctlythisyoung ladysummonedoneselfreason.
话说到这里,老法师已经隐隐约约猜到了这位小姐召唤自己的原因。„Ihope that youcanleaveto go toDeep Rock Citywithme, brightnessandaccurate that observationthismister, the description in wordingis well belowpersonallyto seein secret, sincethismisteris willingto helpDukedom, thenas the Dukedomruler, Idefinitelywantsto respond is not disrespectful. And............”
“我希望您能够和我一起动身前往深石城,暗中观察这位先生,字面上的描述远远不如亲眼所见来的鲜明和准确,既然这位先生肯帮助公国,那么作为公国的统治者,我必然要有所回应才不算失礼。而且…………”Saidhere, Lydiagatheredboth hands, inthatpeerlessunparalleledfacehas shown a nakedgreed and lusthappy expression.
说道这里,莉蒂亚合起双手,那张绝世无双的面孔上露出了一丝**裸的贪婪和**的笑意。„Heard that is a verybeautifulperson, if is really so, ifthatcannotturn intomycollectionhim, was really some have been a pity, not?”
“听说那是个很美丽的人,如果真是如此的话,那么如果不能够将他变成我的收藏品,就实在是有些太可惜了,不是吗?”
