#34: Negotiation

Rebecca was called the name suddenly, the first response is startles: Regarding this decline family's small successor, the present aspect and periphery influential figure basically is she has a dream has not thought the scene, when the childhood runs up to the grove and wolf fights by a claw racket is fainted she has not had the illusion of this rank, the looks at old ancestors and influential figure talks and laughs merrily, she even forgot herself actually is also one of the meeting important participants. 瑞贝卡被突然叫到名字,第一反应就是激灵一下:对于这位没落家族的小小继承人而言,眼前的局面和周围的一圈大人物基本上都是她做梦都没想过的景象,甚至童年跑到林子里和狼搏斗被一爪子拍晕时她都没产生过这种等级的幻觉,看着老祖先与大人物们谈笑风生,她甚至都忘了自己其实也是这场会面的重要参与者之一。 But Rebecca this girl good on to be good because of the iron, even if a little confused, she also relies on powerful- even is close to the nerve toughness of end necrosis calming down, reorganized a language after slightly, this from south countryside small Feudal Lord starts to King to tell that happened at Cecil territory that nightmare. 但瑞贝卡这姑娘好就好在头铁,哪怕有点蒙圈,她也凭借强大-甚至接近末梢坏死的神经韧性冷静下来,稍微整理了一下语言之后,这位来自南部乡下的小领主开始向国王讲述发生在塞西尔领的那一场噩梦。 Everyone listens with total concentration, even if they have not previously thought meets speaks by such little girl, that disaster also made everyone close the mouth seriously. 每一个人都听的聚精会神,哪怕他们此前并没想到会是由这么个小姑娘来发言,那场灾难本身也让每一个人都严肃地闭上了嘴巴。 About happening at the event of south border, those present basically know somewhat. That matter is fermenting in the entire South area, various rumor run all over the place, naturally this is not the Gawain's merit, Gawain mainly about oneself who sends people to disseminate „resurrecting” matter, about disaster he has not exaggerated emphatically-, but disaster type of thing essentially is the best rumor catalyst, after two months of a fermentation and dissemination, it is well-known in the South area. 关于发生在南部边境的事件,在场的人基本上都多多少少知道一些。那件事正在整个南方地区发酵,各种版本的流言满天飞,当然这并不全是高文的功劳,高文派人传播的主要是关于自己“复活”的事情,关于灾难本身他是没有着重渲染的-但灾难这种东西本质上就是最好的流言催化剂,在两个月的酝酿与传播之后,它在南方地区已经是人尽皆知了。 Civilian perhaps lacks the investigation truth the channel, but the aristocrat does not lack, through all kinds of methods, those present more or less understood the process of event, on Francis II even also some confidential reports that came from South many aristocrats, no matter but how the exhaustive report, is not possible to have the personal experience of litigant more accurate reliably. 平民或许缺乏调查真相的渠道,但贵族可不缺,通过各种各样的手段,在场的人都或多或少地了解了事件的经过,弗朗西斯二世手上甚至还有来自南方许多贵族的密报,但不管再怎么详尽的报告,都不可能有当事人的亲身经历更加准确可靠。 In the Rebecca more and more fluent narration, that disaster was pieced together slowly completely, and made the contact with 700 years ago dark magic tide, but a appearance of dragon made the matter in put on a impossible to unravel veil finally. 在瑞贝卡越来越流利的叙述中,那场灾难被慢慢拼凑完整,并与七百年前的黑暗魔潮建立了联系,而一头龙的出现则让整件事在最后更披上了一层扑朔迷离的面纱。 King and aristocrats who looks at frowns tightly, Gawain sighed gently. 看着紧皱眉头的国王与贵族们,高文轻轻叹了口气。 These people in also paid attention to Founding Grand Duke dead and be reborn a moment ago, Cecil Family must beg benefit this matter from royal family, perhaps forgot Cecil Family to come the Royal Capital main goal from the start is to actually report these monsters- this cannot blame them, who made Gawain's have the feeling to be higher? 这些人在刚才还都关注着开国大公死而复生,塞西尔家族是否要从王室讨要利益这种事,恐怕压根就忘了塞西尔家族来王都最主要的目的其实是汇报那些怪物-不过这也不能怪他们,谁让高文的存在感更高呢？ Moreover this has the feeling is he himself tosses about...... 而且这个存在感还是他自己折腾出来的…… „...... The present entire Cecil territory most areas have changed into the scorched earth, dragon's flame contain mana, it has burnt the place is unable the growth grain, my people to to pass one's days under the asylum of Grumman Viscount, Rebecca stand for several years”, she is gripping tightly the fist, beforehand timid vanishes with nervous does not see, „Your Majesty King, Your Excellency, Cecil territory, although is small, but this disaster is actually a signal, purpose in coming perhaps of dragon is unclear, but the monster actually practical is a disaster, these monsters 700 years ago also has appeared, they caused the destruction of Gondor Empire- my ancestor has personally experienced. That all.” “……现在整个塞西尔领大部分地区已经化为焦土,龙炎蕴含魔力,它烧灼过的地方数年都无法生长粮食,我的子民不得不在格鲁曼子爵的庇护下度日,”瑞贝卡已经站了起来,她紧握着拳头,之前的胆怯和紧张都消失不见,“国王陛下,还有诸位阁下,塞西尔领虽小,但这场灾难却是一个信号,龙的来意或许不明,但怪物却切切实实是一场灾难,那些怪物七百年前也出现过,他们导致了刚铎帝国的毁灭-我的先祖就亲身经历过那一切。” Francis II starts with own Imperial Prime Minister and Northern Region Grand Duke talks in a low voice, several other people also lower the head to discuss, can look, they have not regarded the air the news that Rebecca brings, this should thank the news and confidential letter as well as Gawain from South that these spread unceasingly Cecil oneself existence, without these, a decline aristocrat in South countryside ran up to front of King to say own family Feudal Territory by the monster and dragon destruction , only then ridiculed, let alone caused to discuss, traded the responsibility for an offense that can obtain to have the possibility. 弗朗西斯二世开始与自己的御前首相和北境大公低声交谈,另外几人也低头讨论起来,看得出来,他们没有把瑞贝卡带来的消息当成空气,这应该感谢那些不断传扬的消息、来自南方的密函以及高文・塞西尔本人的存在,如果没有这些,一个南方乡下的没落贵族跑到国王面前说自己家族领地被怪物和龙毁灭,所能得到的惟有嘲笑,别说引起讨论了,换来罪责都是有可能的。 But they can take seriously what degree, can make many to deal, this was very difficult to say. 但他们能重视到什么程度,又能做出多少应对,这就很难说了。 After all, this world peaceful 700 years. 毕竟,这个世界已经太平了七百年。 „Duke Cecil Your Excellency,” sat the high thin man beside Gawain left-component seat opened the mouth, he was Western Region Grand Duke Baldwin Franklin, a seemingly gentle scholarly gentleman, „I believed your descendant's honesty at this matter, but this matter was really unthinkable- allowed me to talk too much, these monsters were really 700 years ago in dark magic tide...... these monsters?” “塞西尔公爵阁下,”坐在高文左侧数个位子之外的高瘦男人开口了,他是西境大公柏德文・法兰克林,一个看上去文质彬彬的儒雅绅士,“我相信您的后裔在这件事上的诚实,但这件事委实匪夷所思-容我多嘴,那些怪物真的就是七百年前黑暗魔潮中的……那些怪物么？” „I had 20 years of social dealings with them, has projected on dead, turns into grey me to recognize them,” Gawain said seriously, „, moreover I also fight with them again, can determine that these monsters were initially that thing that emerges from dark magic tide. Only pitifully they after being killed will disintegrate rapidly, is unable to leave behind the corpse specimen, moreover afterward that dragon also burnt down entire Feudal Territory, now does not have the means to send for Cecil territory examination.” “我跟它们打了二十年交道,一直打到死,化成灰我都认得它们,”高文严肃地说道,“而且我还再次与它们交手,可以确定那些怪物就是当初从黑暗魔潮里涌现的那种东西。只可惜它们在被杀死之后就会迅速瓦解,根本无法留下尸体标本,而且后来的那头龙还焚毁了整个领地,现在也没办法派人去塞西尔领查看情况了。” Baldwin Franklin and his Eastern Region Grand Duke Silas Loren looked at each other, Gawain saw that saying: „If you think that Cecil Family exaggerates the truth to receive in exchange for the sympathy intentionally, and wants to return to the power center taking this opportunity, that can say greatly directly.” 柏德文・法兰克林和他身旁的东境大公塞拉斯・罗伦对视了一下,高文见状说道:“如果你们认为塞西尔家族是故意夸大真相来换取同情,并想要借此机会回归权力中心,那大可以直接说出来。” „, We will not have this idea,” Grand Duke Baldwin hurries saying that „we need...... to confirm these things. After all it involved 700 years ago that magic tide, the significant degree of this matter...... even surpassed the category that any Human Race Kingdom can face alone......” “不不不,我们不会有这种想法,”柏德文大公赶紧说道,“我们只是需要……证实一下这些事情。毕竟它涉及到了七百年前的那次魔潮,这件事的重大程度……甚至超过了任何一个人类王国单独能够面对的范畴……” „But they have gotten the gate!” Rebecca somewhat cannot repress stands up, „I see with one's own eyes them!” “但它们已经打上门了！”瑞贝卡有些按捺不住地站起身,“我亲眼看到它们！” „No rush, calm,” Gawain is pressing the shoulder of Rebecca, her according to returning to seat, and turns the head to look to Francis II, „I know that your discretion reasonable, after all enters the state of war to pay very big price. I also bring some evidence, is our soldiers in Southern Region has used weapons and equipments-, although the corpses of these monsters are unable to preserve, when battles with them the equipment will receive element contamination inevitably, in these equipment residual corrosion aura should be able to provide some references to you. I believe that even if wisest imperial scholar, not possible to corrode in aura to find from these with specimen of real world correspondence.” “别急,冷静点,”高文按着瑞贝卡的肩膀,把她按回到座位上,并转头看向弗朗西斯二世,“我知道你们的谨慎是有道理的,毕竟进入战争状态要付出很大的代价。我还带来一些证据,是我们的战士在南境使用过的武器装备-虽然那些怪物的尸体无法保存,但与它们作战时装备会不可避免地受到元素污染,那些装备上残留的腐蚀气息应该能给你们提供一些参考。我相信哪怕是最高明的皇家学者,也不可能从那些腐蚀气息里找到与现实世界对应的样本。” Two sturdy attendant lifted a big box, after turning on the box, several tattered swords as well as some twist deformation the armor wreckage of were suspended to everyone in front. 两名身强力壮的侍从将一个大箱子抬了上来,打开箱子之后,几把破破烂烂的刀剑以及一些扭曲变形的铠甲残骸被摆到所有人面前。 These things as if had been soaked by the strong acid, the bright and clean metal surface proliferated the pits, and has the filthy luster, was corroded the most serious metal even to turn into the quality of material of similar rotten wood by elemental force, rubs with the hand gently, can rub debris. 那些东西就仿佛被强酸泡过,原本光洁的金属表面遍布坑洼,而且带着污浊的色泽,被元素力量侵蚀最严重的金属甚至变成了类似朽木的质地,用手轻轻一搓,就能搓出大片大片的碎屑来。 „Now they have been harmless, can touch with the hand directly, but until half a month ago, these steel is still disintegrating unceasingly,” Gawain looks at King and aristocrats inspect these specimen, while explained in side, „, if the historians in these 700 years have not idled proficiently, in the history book definitely also has the record in this aspect.” “现在它们已经无害了,可以用手直接触碰,但直到半个月前,这些钢铁都还在不断地自我瓦解,”高文一边看着国王与贵族们检视那些样本,一边在旁解释,“如果这七百年里的历史学家们还没懈怠到家的话,史书上肯定还有这方面的记载。” „Has, some......” Francis II is nodding to say. “是有的,是有的……”弗朗西斯二世点着头说道。 „In addition, we still found a Wild Mage note under the coincidence, in his note mentioned solar red spots eruption and mana surge sign......” “除此之外,我们还在巧合之下找到了一个野法师的笔记,他的笔记中提到太阳赤斑爆发以及魔力上涌的迹象……” Gawain intelligence 11 that oneself can provide, but is very obvious, these intelligence from Wild Mage note cannot bring to the too big attention. 高文把自己能提供的情报一一道来,但很显然,来自野法师笔记里的那些情报并未能引起太大的重视。 To the great majority person on the scene, debris that on these thing even might as well tables on these sword armor fragment falls is convincing. 对在场的大多数人而言,那些东西甚至还不如桌上那些刀剑铠甲碎片上掉落的碎屑有说服力。 „You know where that dragon did go?” Finally, Northern Region Duchess Victoria Wilde broke silent, compared with these monsters, she as if cared that the whereabouts of dragon, „or you can guess correctly the ta goal?” “您知道那头龙去了什么地方么？”最后,北境的女公爵维多利亚・维尔德打破了沉默,比起那些怪物,她似乎更关心龙的去向,“或者您能猜到ta的目的么？” Gawain shakes the head: „This I do not know.” 高文摇了摇头:“这我就不知道了。” Although his rank is big, but actually does not mean that he is more experienced than those present, 700 years ago Gawain Cecil may not have to do with the dragon. 虽然他辈分大,但却不意味着他就比在场的人见多识广,七百年前的高文・塞西尔可没跟龙打过交道。 Un, at least in the memory does not have. 嗯,最起码记忆里没有。 After seeing these crystal of last night, Gawain does not believe to the memory that oneself inherited. 在见过昨晚的那些水晶之后,高文对自己继承来的记忆已经不是那么相信了。 „In fact...... three months ago, on my Feudal Territory had once spread the rumor about dragon,” Duchess said every single word or phrase, „some people claimed saw the dragon flies from northern Cold Mountains-, but had not found any other eyewitness finally, the person who retail gossip was also shown drinks the misconception that the liquor had: He regarded the wind and snow in hills by mistake is the dragon.” “事实上……在三个月前,我的领地上曾传出过关于龙的流言,”女公爵一字一句地说道,“有人声称见到龙从更北方的寒冷群山中飞来-但最后没有找到任何别的目击证人,传播流言的人也被证明是喝多了酒产生的错觉:他误把群山中的风雪当成是龙了。” Gawain closely examines immediately: „Has that person described the concrete appearance of dragon?” 高文立刻追问:“那个人有描述过龙的具体样子么？” „No,” Duchess shakes the head, „, but after I go back, can continue to investigate.” “没有,”女公爵摇摇头,“但我回去之后可以继续调查。” „Must investigate, not only investigates that dragon, investigation these monsters,” Francis II said, „has a look at other national place also to have similar thing to appear, or has the unusual mana surge phenomenon.” “必须调查,不光是调查那头龙,还有调查那些怪物,”弗朗西斯二世说道,“看看全国别的地方是不是也有类似的东西出现,或者有没有异常的魔力上涌现象。” Rebecca cannot bear the opens the mouth again: „Only the investigation is insufficient, but must prepare battle- these monsters will suddenly appear, in advance will not have the indication, if not ready to defend ahead of time radically without enough time, waits investigates personnel to discover their trail time definitely late......” 瑞贝卡再次忍不住开口:“可是光调查是不够的,还必须做好战斗准备-那些怪物会突然出现,事前根本不会有征兆,如果不提前做好准备的话根本来不及防御,等调查人员发现它们踪迹的时候肯定就已经迟了……” Guards Silas of eastern border Duke Loren some looked at Rebecca one discontentedly: „Must make the soldiers across the country prepare battle, waits for these not to know when will brave- monster that even may not brave?” 驻守东部边境的塞拉斯・罗伦公爵有些不满地看了瑞贝卡一眼:“难道要让全国各地的士兵都做好战斗准备,来等着那些不知道什么时候会冒出来-甚至不一定会冒出来的怪物么？” Rebecca subconsciously replied: „If such is certainly best......” 瑞贝卡下意识地回答:“如果那样当然最好……” „This is not possible, we cannot, because an illusory possibility the soldiers nation mobilizes, the place aristocrat will revolt . Moreover the royal family prestige will also reduce,” Duke Silas is putting on a serious face saying that he is strong and big, has the typical military person makings, „let alone, we must cope with the threat of east Typhon Empire- that country is ravenous wolf, waited to gnaw flesh from Ainz is not a day two days.” “这是不可能的,我们不能因为一个虚无缥缈的可能性就把全国的士兵都动员起来,地方贵族会造反的,而且王室的信誉也会降低,”塞拉斯公爵板着脸说道,他强壮而高大,有着典型的武人气质,“更何况,我们还要应对东边提丰帝国的威胁-那个国家就是一头豺狼,等着从安苏身上啃一口血肉已经不是一天两天了。” Past the Gondor Empire losing people after the native land destroyed turned toward four directions to break through, finally established the new state in continent east, south, west, and north, Typhon Empire then the country situated in eastern part of the continent, moreover develops until now is also in four countries most powerful. 昔日刚铎帝国的遗民在故土毁灭之后向着四个方向突围,最终在大陆的东南西北四方建立了新的国度,提丰帝国便是位于大陆东部的国家,而且发展至今也是四国中最为强大的一个。 The human country of north, South and West coexists with some local originally Kingdom or race, has Typhon, now is the eastern part of the continent only country, its strength and style can be imagined. 北方、南方、西方的人类国度都是与当地原本就有的王国或者种族共存着,惟有提丰,如今已经是大陆东部唯一的国家,其实力和行事风格可想而知。 Ainz and Typhon adjoin, in both's boundary line also has the big piece fertile soil and high-grade ore, simply is the inborn conflict point. 安苏与提丰毗邻,两者的疆界线上还有着大片沃土与富矿,简直是天生的矛盾冲突点。 In the initial several hundred years, is human country of same side can also remember the fraternity, maintains the peace, but long-time peace originally not realistic- 100 years ago the Ainz civil strife, Typhon Empire seized the chance „to move a hands and feet” on the border line slightly, the relations of two countries then started to develop rapidly after a sudden turn, by the present, can be said as does not have the peaceful day. 在最初几百年,系出同门的人类国度还可以记得手足之情,保持和平,但长久的和平本就不现实-一百年前安苏内乱,提丰帝国趁机在边境线上稍微“动了一下手脚”,两个国家的关系便开始急转直下,到了现在,已经可以说是几无宁日了。 Big open war does not have, but the small friction has never stopped. 大的正面战争没有,但小的摩擦从未停过。 On the Ainz Kingdom current situation, South barren and peaceful in the course of time, north various countries and Ainz are not usually contradictory, west Augari Tribe Kingdom is always the Ainz ally, in Four Regions, only then Eastern Region has been bearing the pressure of war in these hundred years, Silas that therefore the military force sends Duke Loren will not agree shifts to the military power guards against these illusory monsters, to him, the thing of these nearly legend is far less than to be threatening every day in the Typhon army that his under one's nose shakes. 就安苏王国目前的情况,南方贫瘠而且承平日久,北方诸国与安苏素无矛盾,西侧的奥古雷部族国则一向是安苏的盟友,四境之中,惟有东境在这百年间一直承受着战争的压力,因此武力派的塞拉斯・罗伦公爵是绝不会同意把军事力量转向防备那些虚无缥缈的怪物的,对他而言,那些近乎传说的东西远不如每天就在他鼻子底下晃悠的提丰军队有威胁。
