使节团很快经过了那些商队,被拘押的难民早已被远远甩在了后面,队伍中一时之间只有艾柯还念念不舍地看着那后面,他皱着眉头脸上毫不掩饰着急的神色,仿佛不理解为什么自己一直以来崇敬的、富有骑士精神的伯爵大人不让他出手。但布兰多在他心中形象早已高大到了一个无法企及的高度,后者不开口,他虽然心中有如猫抓。但也只能安分地呆在队伍里。他回过头,发现那个戈兰—埃尔森家的小萝莉也正回过头来,她歪着头看着他,浅褐色的眸子里满是不理解的神色——好像不明白为什么那些人要被抓起来,她才不过七八岁。贵族的世界离她还太远。Diplomatic envoyfrontScout Cavalryhas notifiedtoKirrlutzian, thereforeKirrlutzianalsoknowsat this time under thisnoblecaravanorigin, caravanarrives in the blackswordwallto build a city wallslowly, Brandoraises the handto makeeveryonestop.

Kirrlutziansends outtrivialKnight Captainto replacenow, isnakedwas arrogant.
使节团前面的斥候骑兵已经向克鲁兹人通报过了,因此这个时候克鲁兹人也知道了这支贵族车队的来历,车队缓缓抵达黑剑壁垒城下,布兰多才举起手让所有人停下来。车队停下后不多时,就有三名克鲁兹骑士骑在地行龙上来到他们面前,为首的骑士穿着一件银灰色的仪式用胸甲。胸甲上挂满了明晃晃的勋章,布兰多看他的绶带和头盔上的长鬃颜色,就明白这人是个骑士长——而在他身后。维埃罗大公的女儿已经微微变了脸色,按照炎之圣殿与下属各国交往的正常礼节,帝国对于他们这样正式的使节,起码应当由此地最高长官的副手亲自来验证他们的身份,并且迎接他们进城。克鲁兹人现在派出一个区区骑士长来顶替,已经是赤裸裸的傲慢了。Suchmatterbut is actually notfirstoccurrence. Kirrlutz the envoy when threeyears ago goes to the empirehaving an audience withemperor and homage to the dynastynewyearaccording to the convention, had been so treated. Alsomust, the year of ago coldfrost, the envoys in kingdomas ifbe used tosuchprofaningearly.

这样的事情倒也不是第一次发生。早在三年前克鲁兹的使节按惯例前往帝国觐见皇帝、朝贺新岁时,就曾经被如此对待过。或者还要更早一些,早在寒霜之年以前,王国的使臣似乎就已经习惯了这样的轻慢。只不过过去这位公爵千金从文史上读到这些内容时,只觉得埃鲁因国力微薄,帝国这样一个庞然大物在他面前高人一等仿佛也是理所当然的事情,但现在轮到她自己亲自体验克鲁兹人的轻慢的时候,心中还是忍不住生出一股怨怒来。Howevershehas not opened the mouthsanely.
不过她理智地没有开口。
Others in teammore or lessdetected that atmospheresomeare not right, butbesidesKiaraandCiel, others is limitedregarding the diplomatic channelsunderstanding, therefore can only wait forBrandoto make the decisionsilently. Brandoexpectsearlyso, hepattedalso the shoulder of completely ignorantIvoramgently, callingthismeatballto present the copy clerk. The latterthenresponded,rushedto put out the copy clerk and imperial sealabstention, arrived in front ofthatseveralKirrlutzKnightrespectfully, both handspresented.
队伍中的其他人或多或少察觉气氛有些不对,但除了琪雅拉与夏尔之外,其他人对于外交程序了解有限,因此只能默默地等着布兰多作决定。布兰多则是早料到如此,他轻轻拍了拍还茫然无知的艾弗拉姆的肩膀,叫这肉球去递交文书。后者这才反应过来,赶忙拿出文书和玺戒,恭恭敬敬地来到那几名克鲁兹骑士面前,双手呈上。Hedisplaysfullyhumble, evenIkethatsoldierNCOsomewhatcannot tolerateto show the discontentedlookbehind, butKirrlutzKnightactuallydid not appreciate kindness rendered, hedid not receive the copy clerkpatiently, looked atone, thenlosesonIvoramconveniently. Thesedexterousmovements, makingmost ignorantIvoramstillrespondevencamethecopy clerk on ——hishand, was more serioussaid that maybe the Aouine'scredentials, if the opposite partywereborderMarquis of empire, even ifthatthrewonhisfacehenot to dareto sayhalf a word the credentials, but the opposite partywassmallKnight Captain, strictly speakingwas notnoble——in the true sensehe unable to bearsomewhatlooks at the opposite partydumbfoundedly, did not understandopposite partyenergyfrom whereTathagata.
他表现得已经十足谦卑,甚至连艾柯身后那个军人士官都有些看不过眼露出不满的神色,但克鲁兹骑士却并不领情,他不耐烦地接过文书,看了一眼,然后随手丢回艾弗拉姆手上。这几个轻巧的动作,让就算是最无知的艾弗拉姆也反应了过来——他手上的这份文书,郑重一些说可算是埃鲁因的国书,假如对方是一位帝国的边境侯爵,那么就算是把国书丢回他脸上他不敢多说半句,可对方不过是个小小的骑士长,严格说来都算不上真正意义上的贵族——他忍不住有些目瞪口呆地看着对方,不明白对方这种底气从何如来。ButthatKirrlutzKnightregardshimradically , if no thing, heloathedlooked atthismeatballone, beckons with the hand saying: „come with me.”
但那克鲁兹骑士根本视他若无物,他厌恶地看了这肉球一眼,摆了摆手道:“跟我来吧。”Ivoramstandstheredoes not dareto move, hissubconsciouslylooks backBrando, thisis not the empiregreetsothervassal stateproperformalities that Holy Cathedral of Firegoverns, orsimplydoes not have the formality. Heisalsounderstandsagainstupid, ifoneselfmake a decision without authorization, today the charge of thisdiplomaticbreach of etiquette, mustfalltohimon. Butthismeatballactuallywants to cry but have no tearsdiscovered,Brandodoes not seemto seehimsame, standstheremotionlessly.艾弗拉姆站在那里没有敢动,他下意识地回过头去看布兰多,这已经不是帝国迎接炎之圣殿治下的其他属国应有的礼节了,或者说根本没有礼节可言。他就是再蠢也明白,自己要是擅作主张,今天这个外交失仪的罪名,就要落到他头上了。可这肉球却欲哭无泪地发现,布兰多好像没看到他一样,一动不动地站在那里。But, hehasto saytothatKirrlutzKnighttrembling: „Ser Knight, this doesn't...... conform to the customprobably?”
无奈之下,他只好战战兢兢地向那克鲁兹骑士说道:“骑士大人,这个……好像不太符合规矩?”Heis filled with hope that wasKirrlutzianneglectsfor a while, forgot the diplomatic protocol, what madehisdisappointedwas. ThatKnightactuallysomewhatlooked athisoneeyesindifferently: „The presentisin time of war, weare impossibleto open the door of Knight( note) to greetyou, ifyouhaveanything is not unsatisfied, canchooseto detour, or the old routereturns.”
他满心希望那是克鲁兹人一时疏忽,忘了外交礼节,但让他失望的是。那骑士却有些冷漠地看了他一眼:“现在是战争时期,我们不可能打开骑士之门(注)来迎接你们,如果你们有什么不满意的话,可以选择绕路,或者原路返回。”
( Note: The gate of Knight, PulleyDukeis the name that the fortmain entrancesets, sacrificedforcommemoratinginKirrlutzsoldier of thisfort.)
(注:骑士之门,森普利公爵为要塞正门定下的名称,为了纪念牺牲于这座要塞的克鲁兹军人。)
Does the old routereturn?
原路返回?Ivoramis sweating profusely, thislittle whileheexperiencedbeing arrogant and conceited of Kirrlutziantruly, hethoughtbeforethiswasnatural, thisworldtook the strengthasto revere. The fist of Kirrlutziangreatlyis enough hardenough, thereforeshowssuchattitudealsoto tolerate. Butwhenheenjoysthisarroganttime, herealized. Thisarrogancehowhateful, if possible, hewishes one could a fistto punchon the face of frontthisfellow, then a fistloseson the face of thatdamnCount of Tonigel.艾弗拉姆满头大汗,这会儿他算是真正见识了克鲁兹人的目空一切,他以前觉得这是理所当然,这个世界以实力为尊。克鲁兹人的拳头够大够硬,所以表现出这样的态度也是可以容忍的。但等到他自己享受这种傲慢的时候,他才意识到。这种傲慢是多么的可恨,如果可以的话,他恨不得一拳揍在面前这家伙的脸上,然后再回头一拳丢在那该死的托尼格尔伯爵的脸上。Naturally, this is also thinks. Even iftaking advantage ofhistencourage, hisstillhaving couragequantity.
当然了,这也就是想想而已。就算是借他十个胆子,他也没这个胆量。But when hisin a dilemma, Brandoopens the mouthfinally: „Ivoram, toldhim, we were impossibleto go back.”
但就在他左右为难的之时,布兰多终于开了口:“艾弗拉姆,告诉他,我们是不可能回去的。”Ivoramsuch as the black silk ribbonSaintsound, rushesthento looktoKirrlutzian. ThatKnightas ifexpectsearlyso, could not bearcontemptuouslysmiled: „Thatpleasecomealong withme, fellowenvoySirs.”Hereadintentionallyextremelyheavily the envoySir.

EspeciallyIkebehindthatCount of Yanilasefficientsubordinate, assoldier. Hisright handcloselyhas graspedon the sword hilt.艾弗拉姆如纶圣音,赶忙回头看向克鲁兹人。那骑士仿佛早料到如此,忍不住轻蔑地笑了一下:“那就请随我来吧,各位使节大人。”他故意将使节大人读得极重。配合上他那口音浓重的克鲁兹语,充满了讽刺的意味。这句话听得艾弗拉姆心惊胆战,他生怕那位心高气傲的团长大人会忍耐不住反唇相讥,而除了他之外,使节团内的其他人也纷纷皱起眉头。尤其是艾柯身后那位雅尼拉苏伯爵的得力手下,作为一个军人。他右手已经紧紧地握在了剑柄上。AlthoughIvoramwhenCallasisto become famousplayboynoble, butinthiscirclemusthave the skill of watching a person's every moodactuallynot to throw down, naturallycandetectthistension-filledatmosphere, hewipes away sweat, freelythrows the meaningful glancetoBrando, wantsto makethisLord Counttake a stand, is actually dead orlive.艾弗拉姆虽然在卡拉苏时是出了名的纨绔贵族,但这个圈子里所必须要有的察言观色的本事却没有丢下,自然能察觉得出来这紧张的气氛来,他擦了擦汗,不住地向布兰多投去眼色,想让这位伯爵大人表个态,究竟是死还是活。Butpitifully, Brandoseemed like still had not heardthatKirrlutzKnightwordssame, standstheremotionlessly.
但可惜,布兰多仍旧像是没听到那克鲁兹骑士的话一样,一动不动地站在那里。this time, thatKirrlutzKnightdetectedfinally, himdid not put asidethisdeadfattydirectly, raises headsomewhatlooks atBrandooneat presentstrangely, realized that thisistheseAouiniandirectors, althoughhedoes not know that who the opposite partyis, butthisdoes not hinderhimto open the mouth, hesomewhatrepliedarrogant: „What's wrong, did everyone, youplanto behere?”这一次,那克鲁兹骑士总算察觉出不对来了,他直接撇开眼前这个死胖子,抬起头有些古怪地看了布兰多一眼,意识到这才是这些埃鲁因人的主事者,他虽然不知道对方是谁,但这不妨碍他开口,他有些傲慢地答道:“怎么了,各位,你们打算一直在这儿待着?”Brandolooked atthisfellowoneeyes, hecommonly seentheseKirrlutzianarrogantcountenance——has seemed likeVeronica, LenarretandBrundesuchcentralnobleinlastslightlyis better, butparticularlyKirrlutzsoldier of theseborders, becausein the ordinary dayandAouiniancontactto get the opportunity more, the refugee who as ifthesetrembleandsaw the empireto spoiltheirtemperament——thereforethisgroup of peopleonlegsoftAouinenoble is almost onegroup of people who the empiremostwas arrogant and conceited, Aouinianin their eyesapproximatelyonlycompared withwild animalhigh levelsome, this atmospherebecameafterWar of Black Rose for the first time especiallyobvious, toafterward. Aouineresurgenceperiod, evenaffected the Kirrlutzplayer, has to dowithKirrlutz Empire of thattime, mustcall a matter that the Aouineplayeris wild with ragesimply.布兰多看了这家伙一眼,他在上一世早已司空见惯这些克鲁兹人傲慢的嘴脸——像是维罗妮卡、莱纳瑞特和布伦德那样的中央贵族还稍微好一些,但尤其是这些边境的克鲁兹军人,由于平日里与埃鲁因人接触得机会更多,仿佛那些瑟瑟发抖的难民和见了帝国就腿软的埃鲁因贵族早就惯坏了他们的脾气——因此这群人几乎是帝国最目空一切的一群人,埃鲁因人在他们眼里大约只比野兽更高级一些,这种风气在第一次黑玫瑰战争之后变得尤为明显,到后来埃鲁因中兴时期,甚至影响了克鲁兹的玩家,和那个时代的克鲁兹帝国打交道,简直是要叫埃鲁因玩家气疯的一件事情。Butin comparison, nowthisattitude is also good, at leastdid not haveonto tauntoutwardly.
而与之相比,现在这个态度还算是好的了,至少没有明面上冷嘲热讽。HoweverBrandonot, becausethis‚is good’ the attitudegives birth toslightly the gratitude, becauseheislooked for a job, regarding others, going abroad on a diplomatic missionempiretoparticipate inHoly Warmobilizationritebefore, butto him, thisgoal is actually dispensable. Hestared atthisKirrlutzKnight, under the heartcannot be bearingsayacted recklessly, butherepressed the one's ownmood, repliedlightly: „Wecomehere, togo toempire, thereforenaturallycannottreathere , the old routewill not return to——Mr.Knight, youunderstood what is heard.”
不过布兰多并不因为这‘较好’的态度就生出丝毫感激之心,因为他本来就是来找事的,对于其他人来说,出使帝国是为了参与圣战之前举行的动员祭典,而对于他来说,这一个目的其实是可有可无的。他盯着这个克鲁兹骑士,心下忍不住说了一声不知死活,但他还是按捺住自己的情绪,淡淡地答道:“我们前来这里,就是为了前往帝国,所以自然不会待在这里,也不会原路返回——骑士先生,你听明白了吗。”„Verygood, are actually yourmeaningswhat?”ThatKirrlutzKnightheard this world'sfunniestmatterprobably, helooked that Brandoonegroup of look atonegroup of idiotsprobably, thought that is it possible thatthisgroup of country bumpkinscome outfrom the place of someremote place, beforehad not seen the world, howotherwisecanbecomethisappearancedull?
“很好,那你们的意思究竟是什么?”那克鲁兹骑士好像听到了这个世界上最好笑的事情,他看布兰多一行人好像看一群白痴,心想这群乡巴佬莫非是从某个穷乡僻壤的地方出来的,之前从来没见过世面,否则怎么能呆成这个样子?„What we meant was that youmustaccording to the formality, open the main entrance, greets the diplomatic envoyto enter the fort, thisrelates to the dignity of kingdom. Similarlyalsoto the worldshowed that yourKirrlutzianat leastis notdoes not have good manners the number.”Brandorepliedbriefly and to the point.
“我们的意思是,你们必须按照礼节,打开正门,迎接使节团进入要塞,这是关系到王国的尊严。同样也是向世人证明你们克鲁兹人至少不是不懂礼数。”布兰多简明扼要地答道。
The Dukethousand gold (daughter)opened the opens the mouthinbehind, thendo not say that KirrlutzKnight, shefelthowownthisSirCommandersuddenlybecamesuchinflexible, Kirrlutzianclarifiedmustprofanethem, gavethemthese‚country folk’ a demonstration of authority;HowthesediplomaticetiquetteuseLord Countto make the reminder, obviouslyKirrlutzianhas been well aware, butisintentionallyjust like this. But ifBrandodoes not exposethislastfig leaf, thenboth sides can also keep an face, but after Brandoexposes, ifKirrlutzianstillinsisted onso. Theirthisdiplomatic envoyscanlinka wee bitface countenancesalsoto be finally nothing left.公爵千金在后面张了张口,这下不要说那个克鲁兹骑士了,就连她都觉得自己这位团长大人怎么突然变得这么死板了,克鲁兹人摆明了是要轻慢他们,给他们这些‘乡下人’一个下马威;这些外交礼仪又岂用伯爵大人来作提醒,显然克鲁兹人早已心知肚明,不过是故意如此而已。但如果布兰多不把这最后一丝遮羞布揭破,那么双方还能留一丝脸面,但布兰多揭破之后,如果克鲁兹人仍旧执意如此的话。那他们这个使节团就可以连最后一丁点颜面也荡然无存了。Butshedoes not certainly believe that thisCount of Tonigel is so pure, shefeltfaintlyBrandoseems likecompelsthisblind alleyto come up the opposite partyintentionally.
但她当然不相信这位托尼格尔伯爵真的那么单纯,她隐隐感到布兰多似乎是故意将对方逼到这条死路上去的。ThatKirrlutzKnightwas also changing the complexionsimultaneously.
那克鲁兹骑士也在同时变了脸色。„Youare sayinganything,”hecould not bearsomewhatshoutangrily: „Ihave said. The presentisin time of war, is impossibleto open the door of Knight, youhave not understood what is heard, Mister?”
“你在说什么,”他忍不住有些恼怒地喊了起来:“我说过。现在是战争时期,不可能打开骑士之门,你没听明白吗,先生?”„Hereis the Aouinekingdomandin the Kirrlutz Empireborder, Ineverhearhave hadwhatwar.”Brandoas iftreated as the neglected advicescolding of thisMr.Knight. Onlyrepliedonesuperficially.
“这里是埃鲁因王国与克鲁兹帝国的国境之内,我从未听闻过有什么战争。”布兰多仿佛把这位骑士先生的呵斥当做了耳边风。只轻描淡写地回答了一句。„Right?”ThatKnightcannot bearsneer: „ThenyoucanconvinceLord Marquisgreatly, thisorderisheissues, ifyoucanconvincehimto makehimbelieve that herewill not be threatenedby the war, Iwill naturally open the door of Knightto greeteveryoneto enter a citypersonally.”
“是吗?”那骑士忍不住冷笑:“那么你大可以去说服侯爵大人,这个命令是他下达的,假如你能说服他使他相信这里不会受到战争的威胁的话,我自然会亲自打开骑士之门来迎接各位进城。”Brandolooked athisoneeyes, replied: „Good, I willconvincedyourLord Marquis. Howeveraccording to the formality, you are unqualifiedto greetour, originallythisassistants who are honoredleavesyourSirs. ButifIactto convincehim, perhapsthenhepersonallyactedto greetusasapologizing.”布兰多看了他一眼,答道:“好吧,我会说服你们的侯爵大人的。不过按照礼节,你是不够资格来迎接我们的,原本这个荣幸是留给你们那位大人的副手。但假如我出面说服他的话,那么他恐怕就得亲自出面来迎接我们作为赔罪了。”ThatKirrlutzKnightcannot bearstare the bigeyeto visithim, as iflooks at a lunatic.
那克鲁兹骑士忍不住瞪大眼睛看着他,仿佛看着一个疯子。„Daydreams.”Hesaid,hethrows downthese wordsfinally, said: „Good. Ifyoudo not planandmego intogether, thenyouare waitinghere. Naturally, welcomeyouto convinceourthatLord Marquisat any time.”
“白日做梦。”他说,他最后丢下这句话,说道:“好吧。假如你们不打算和我一起进去的,那么你们就在这里等着好了。当然了,随时欢迎你们来说服我们的那位侯爵大人。”Then, hethrew downBrandoonegroup , the diameterbringsone's ownto return to the fort, as ifreallydid not planto pay attention tothesebewilderedAouinecountry bumpkins.
说罢,他丢下布兰多一行人,径自带着自己的手下返回了要塞,仿佛真不打算理会这些莫名其妙的埃鲁因乡巴佬了。
After Kirrlutzianleaves, Ivoram and visionsubconsciously of Dukedaughtersand others fellontheirCommander, in the Ivoramheartonlythinks that thisLord Countwaswantsto show off a one's owncourage and wisdom, was goodto takeasto draw back, butthisyoungThanehas not expectedKirrlutzianneverto eatthissetobviously. But the Dukethousand gold (daughter)is silent, in the heartobviously is also the similaridea. But the issuewaspresentKirrlutzianhad walked, their diplomatic envoyscannottreat here, butthenaskedthatLord Marquis, was a disgracedmatter, thismatterwas their SirCommanderannoysobviously, ifwantedsomepeopleto come outto settle, thennaturally must first go into actionbythisSirCommander.
等到克鲁兹人离开之后,艾弗拉姆、公爵千金与其他人的目光下意识地落到了他们的团长身上,艾弗拉姆心中只以为这位伯爵大人是想要卖弄了一下自己的胆识,好以进为退,但这位年轻的领主显然没料到克鲁兹人从来不吃这一套。而公爵千金默然不语,心中显然也是差不多的想法。但问题是现在克鲁兹人已经走了,他们这个使节团总不能一直待在这儿,可无论是回头还是去求那位侯爵大人,都是一件颜面扫地的事情,这件事显然是他们这位团长大人惹出来的,所以如果说要有人出来善后,那么自然首先还是应当由这位团长大人出马。ButBrandohas not regardedmatterthismatterprobablyquite the same as, heraised the headcity wall that looked atthisto stand tall and erect, thenhas turned headto saytobehindCielsuperficially: „Confusion of Kirrlutzian, 60years ago, 60yearslater, as well astoday, this pointhas not changed. Ciel, goes to mycarriageto bringmysword.”
但布兰多好像浑然没把这件事当成一回事似的,他抬头看了这高耸的城墙一眼,然后回过头轻描淡写地对身后的夏尔说道:“克鲁兹人的执迷不悟,六十年前,六十年后,以及今天,这一点从来没变过。夏尔,去我的马车上把我的剑拿来。”Ivoramhas not understood what is heardthese wordsto representwhatmeaning, buthad respondedcompared withhemore resourcefulDukethousand gold (daughter), shelooks atSirCommander of their diplomatic envoydumbfoundedly, probablyremembersanothersingle layerstatus——Sword Saint of opposite party.艾弗拉姆还没听明白过来这句话代表着什么意思,但比他更加机敏的公爵千金已经反应了过来,她目瞪口呆地看着他们这个使节团的团长大人,好像才想起对方的另一重身份——剑圣。„It is not good,”sherushesto speak the opposition saying: „Lord Count, youcannotbe so impulsive!”
“不行,”她赶忙出言反对道:“伯爵大人,你绝不能这么冲动!”Brandovisitsher, asked: „HowIimpulsed, Young Lady O'Neill?”布兰多看着她,问道:“我怎么冲动了,欧妮小姐?”„Heactuallyasked how myheimpulsed!” The Dukethousand gold (daughter)has almost not borneprobablyclutch the one's ownhair, shethinksBrandoissomewhatyoung and impetuous, butlooks like the opposite partynow is completely a lunatic. Shecannot bearsaidloudly: „Ifyoumustforceto kidnapthatLord Marquis, mayproduce a war.”
“他竟然问我他怎么冲动了!”公爵千金差点没忍住要去揪自己的头发,她原本以为布兰多不过是有些年轻气盛,但现在看来对方完全是个疯子。她忍不住大声说道:“如果你要去胁迫劫持那位侯爵大人,有可能引发一场战争的。”Brandocannot bearsomewhatstunned: „Whosaid that Imustforceto kidnaptruenoble, Young Lady O'Neill, youcannotslandermyreputationrecklessly.”布兰多忍不住有些愕然:“谁说我要去胁迫劫持一位真正的贵族了,欧妮小姐,你可不能肆意污蔑我的名誉。”„Don't youplanto do that?” The Dukethousand gold (daughter)onewas startled.
“你不打算这么做?”公爵千金一下怔住了。„Naturally.”
“当然。”„Did youpledge?”
“你发誓?”„MissDuke, I, althoughnotdoes not likecracking a joke, butnow your jokeis somewhat excessive.”Brandorepliedseriously.
“公爵小姐,我虽然并不是不喜欢开玩笑,但现在你这个玩笑有些过头了。”布兰多严肃地答道。ThensomeDukethousand gold (daughter)doubtget up, shecannot bear the suspicionstare atBrando.
这下公爵千金有些狐疑起来,她忍不住怀疑地盯着布兰多。ButBrandohas not truly plannedto hold under duressthatwhatnonsenseMarquisin the past, firsthedoes not know where the opposite partytreats, hecannotwantCeryto killsevento enterseveninthis. Howeverat this timeCielbringshissaber, thiswas notthathas usedhim the sword, darkEarth Sword, butwas a as ifcarvesby the ice crystal, crystalsamelong sword.
但布兰多倒确实是没有打算过去挟持那个什么狗屁侯爵,首先他根本不知道对方待在什么地方,他总不能在这座要塞里杀个七进七出。不过这个时候夏尔已经拿来了他的佩剑,这把剑不是那把他已经用惯了的,黑沉沉的大地之剑,而是一柄仿佛由冰晶雕琢而成的,水晶一样的长剑。Brandoreceivedthatsword, heftedheftingin the hand, thenraises headcomes, to stare atthisfortwith a history about 400 years.布兰多接过那剑,在手中掂了掂,然后抬起头来,盯着这座拥有近400年历史的要塞。„Youmustmake clear a matter, Young Lady O'Neill,”Brandoreplied: „Ineverhandle that troublesomematter.”
“你要搞清楚一件事,欧妮小姐,”布兰多回答道:“我从不做那么麻烦的事情。”
The languagefinishes, heholds up the swordto wieldto the front door of thisfortconveniently.
语毕,他举起剑随手向这座要塞的大门一挥。Togetherbrightsilver wire, as ifsince the groundraises, in an instant, diagonalin-lineclouds——
一道明亮的银线,仿佛从地面升起,刹那之间,斜向直插云霄——
