Is situated the Saint brilliant church above Holy Mountain, although is grand and sacred, but exceptionally is lonely. 坐落在圣山之上的圣光大教堂,虽然宏伟而神圣,但却异常冷清。 Here is in the mundane world from the lord of recent place of brilliance, but, is the distance mortal most remote place. 这里是世俗世界中距离光辉之主最近的地方,但同时,也是距离凡人最遥远的地方。 The genuine leadership in brilliance empire, has the qualifications to come here, to lord of devout prayer brilliance. 只有光辉帝国的真正高层,才有资格来到这里,向光辉之主虔诚祷告。 „Before the lord of brilliance, all living things is the equality.” “在光辉之主面前,众生皆是平等。” These words as if are only an empty catchphrase, naturally, possibly some people compared with others „equal” some. 这句话似乎只是一个空洞的宣传口号,当然,也可能有些人要比别人更“平等”一些。 The today's Saint brilliant church was livelier than the past, comes the aristocrats who were Consul Lethem offers condolences to numerously, making the waiter before church find it hard to cope with. 今日的圣光大教堂却比往日更热闹一些,众多前来为莱托姆执政官吊唁的贵族们,让教堂前的侍者应接不暇。 Three cardinal Bishop also stand before the stair personally, welcomed the honored guest. 就连三位枢机主教也都亲自站在台阶前,恭迎贵客。 Cardinal Bishop Tournant looks steps onto the aristocrats of stair one after another, suddenly the look moves, goes forward several steps, sent regards: „Miss Vera, Viscount Angelie, welcome to the Saint brilliant church, wishing my Lord brilliance to shine forever you.” 枢机主教图尔南斯看着陆续走上台阶的贵族们,忽然眼神一动,上前几步,问候道:“薇拉小姐,安格列子爵,欢迎来到圣光大教堂,愿吾主的光辉永远照耀着你们。” Vera and Colin return a courtesy hastily, in the heart somewhat is strange, this cardinal Sir Bishop so will be why warm. 薇拉和柯林连忙回礼,心中却有些奇怪,这位枢机主教大人为什么会如此热情。 By their present status, but also being insufficient makes cardinal Bishop greet personally, after all Vera has not inherited the position of northern boundary duke officially. 以他们现在的身份,还不至于让枢机主教亲自迎接,毕竟薇拉还未正式继承北境公爵之位。 Before Colin and Vera, has never dealt with this person. 柯林和薇拉之前也从未跟此人打过交道。 During the doubts, then listens to Tournant saying: „Miss Vera, heard that you do prepare to accept the baptism?” 疑惑间,便听图尔南斯说道:“薇拉小姐,听说您准备接受洗礼？” „Yes, cardinal Sir Bishop.” Vera nods saying that as if somewhat understood the plan of this cardinal Bishop. “是的,枢机主教大人。”薇拉点头道,似乎有些明白了这位枢机主教的打算。 Really, later then sees Tournant to offer to volunteer to say on own initiative: „Does not know whether I can have this to be honored for you baptize?” 果然,随后便见图尔南斯主动自荐道:“不知我能否有这个荣幸为您施洗？” Vera looks to Colin, sees him to nod gently, is saying with a smile: „Naturally! Can preside over the baptism ceremony by you are my being honored!” 薇拉看向柯林,见他轻轻点头,便笑着道:“当然！能够由您来主持洗礼仪式是我的荣幸！” Cardinal Bishop is the position is next to existence of Pope in the brilliance church, was given Vera to baptize by Tournant is certainly appropriate. 枢机主教在光辉教会中是地位仅次于教皇的存在,由图尔南斯来给薇拉施洗当然再合适不过了。 But in the meantime, a grand sound resounds after three people suddenly: „Tournant, Miss Vera's baptism ceremony, comes personally to manage by me.” 但就在此时,一个宏伟的声音突然在三人身后响起:“图尔南斯,薇拉小姐的洗礼仪式,还是由我来亲自主持吧。” Three people then looked, sees Pope Griga not to know when appears there unexpectedly. 三人回头一看,就见教皇格里高瑞不知何时竟出现在那里。 Tournant complexion changes, said hastily: „Naturally, is baptized by you, is definitely more appropriate!” 图尔南斯脸色一变,连忙道:“当然,由您来施洗,肯定更加合适！” Colin narrowed the eye, looks at front this, in the heart raises all sorts of doubts. 柯林眯起了眼睛,看着面前这一幕,心中升起种种疑惑。 He is not clear, baptizes to Vera, has what mystery? 他不明白,给薇拉施洗,难道其中有什么奥妙吗？ Said, an once Wizard being converted church, really had so big advertising value, cancould Pope even/including also help fighting for this merit? 还是说,一位曾经的法师皈依教会,真的有如此大的宣传价值,连教皇也忍不住要争抢这一份功劳？ Naturally, Vera will not reject the good intention of Pope, immediately complies. 当然,薇拉可不会拒绝教皇的好意,当即答应下来。 After the time that several people discussed the good baptism ceremony, Colin then led Vera to enter the church. 几人商议好洗礼仪式的时间后,柯林便带着薇拉走进教堂。 After entering the pray hall, Colin felt that informer suddenly one static, the world that as if makes noise was isolated thoroughly outside, here, is another belongs to the Spiritual God state alone. 进入祈祷厅后,柯林感觉耳目忽然一静,仿佛喧闹的世界被彻底隔绝在外,这里,则是另一个独属于神灵的国度。 In the hall does not have the candle, does not have the magic lamp, the Saint light of dropping from the clouds scatters all darkness, lets bathe people to feel vast sacred aura, cannot help but in all dirty gloomy thoughts the heart all hidden quietly, for fear that therefore blasphemed the Spiritual God. 厅中没有蜡烛,也没有魔法灯,从天而降的圣光驱散所有的黑暗,也让沐浴其中的人们感受到一股浩大神圣的气息,不由得将心中所有的龌龊阴暗的念头全都悄然隐藏,生怕因此亵渎了神灵。 At this time in the hall had gathered much the aristocrat who comes to offer condolences, Colin took a fast look around, actually discovered oneself do not know several. 此时厅中已经聚集了不少前来吊唁的贵族,柯林扫视了一圈,却发现自己根本不认识几个。 If scholar Dawn because of were also good. 要是道恩学士也在就好了。 Colin cannot bear think. 柯林忍不住想到。 What a pity, scholar Dawn does not have the title, is not the palace minister, but also does not have the qualifications to enter the Saint brilliant church. 可惜,道恩学士既没有爵位,也不是宫廷大臣,还没有资格进入圣光大教堂。 Is good also knows many people because of Vera, is introducing the great people in imperial capital to Colin low voice. 好在薇拉还认识不少人,正小声地给柯林介绍着帝都的大人物们。 The mild fragrant aura hits near Colin ear, somewhat itches, is somewhat warm. 温润芬芳的气息打在柯林耳边,有些发痒,也有些温馨。 „Coffin is standing the old man is under the Pope Griga crown, what in him behind right side is four Consul of Upper House, we have seen two, that has the long beard, Consul from south boundary- Dulles St. Landers, finally that thin and tall, Consul from eastern boundary- Morson St. Plossi.” “灵柩站着的老者是教皇格里高瑞冕下,在他身后右侧的是元老院的四位执政官,我们已经见过其中两位了,那位留着长胡子的,是来自南境的执政官-杜勒斯・圣兰德斯,最后那位瘦瘦高高的,是来自东境的执政官-伊莫森・圣普洛斯。” Colin corners of the mouth hold the smile, is sizing up four Consul of Upper House, discovered that their complexion extremely sinking sound, perhaps was the Consul Lethem death makes them have a feeling of like grieve for like. 柯林嘴角噙着微笑,打量着元老院的四位执政官,发现他们的脸色都极为沉声,或许是莱托姆执政官的死让他们有了一种兔死狐悲的感觉。 Until now, Upper House by the aloof stance occupies in the brilliance empire political landscape most top level, even if senior statesmen each corruption becomes second nature, no one may manage. 一直以来,元老院以超然物外的姿态盘踞在光辉帝国政治版图的最顶层,哪怕元老们各个贪腐成性,也无人可管。 But now, some as if people put out a hand to Upper House, moreover comes up, is fiercest, bloodiest method. 但现在,似乎有人对元老院伸手了,而且一上来,就是最为酷烈,最为血腥的手段。 The senior statesmen one night in those days in having a high and respected position was terrified and startled, unavoidably started everybody feels insecure to get up. 往日里养尊处优的元老们一夜之间悚然而惊,难免开始人人自危起来。 „...... That is dozing off, was empire prime minister Baron Heidegger, near his left hand, was empire finance minister marquis Grandy, again toward left, was......” “……那位打着瞌睡的,就是帝国首相海德格尔男爵了,他左手边的,是帝国财务大臣格兰迪侯爵,再往左,就是……” Saw Vera to stop suddenly, Colin has turned the head curiously, will inquire what happened, sees her to look to the pray hall entrance. 见薇拉突然停下来了,柯林好奇地转过头去,正要询问发生了什么事,就见她看向了祈祷厅门口。 Colin also then looks, saw the entrance to present an elegant bearing, the stance graceful middle age knight. 柯林也回头望去,就见门口出现了一位风度翩翩,姿态优雅的中年骑士。 He wears the magnificent Prince formal clothes, the waist is matching a plain dark knight sword, is striding bravely forward, does not look askance to walk. 他穿着华丽的亲王礼服,腰间配着一柄古朴黝黑的骑士剑,正昂首阔步,目不斜视地走了进来。 His everywhere one visit, as if is the center of the world, is he in walks obviously toward the hall , is actually more like the Saint brilliant church that entire stands tall and erect palatially to approach him on own initiative, welcomed the center of pray hall him. 他所到之处,仿佛便是世界的中心,明明是他在向着厅内走来,却更像是整座巍峨高耸的圣光大教堂在主动靠近他,将他迎上了祈祷厅的中心。 Until he decides in the coffin advance party, the people work loose from this space and time confused phenomenon, relaxes neatly. 直到他在灵柩前站定,众人才从这种时空错乱的异像中挣脱出来,齐刷刷地松了口气。 „...... He is Prince Reich.” Vera's voice resounds again. “……他就是莱希亲王。”薇拉的声音再次响起。 Actually does not need her to introduce, Colin also knows such character, can only be that Saint knight who stands in the empire military force peak. 其实不用她介绍,柯林也知道这样的人物,只能是那位站在帝国武力巅峰的圣骑士。 Although the first time was not facing the Saint territory powerhouse, but previous time when Ice Rock City saw Duke St. Hilde, the opposite party has been seriously injured, has not given Colin so powerful constriction. 虽然不是第一次面对圣域强者了,但上一次在冰岩城见到圣希尔德公爵时,对方已经身受重伤,并没有给柯林如此强大的压迫感。 But now, facing a Saint knight of heyday, Colin discovered oneself unexpectedly so tiny. 而现在,面对一位全盛时期的圣骑士,柯林才发现自己竟是如此的渺小。 Even if he now is the fifth-order knight, after changing the body, six step knights also dare to challenge. 哪怕他现在已经是五阶骑士,变身之后,就连六阶骑士也敢挑战一下。 But in front of Prince Reich, Colin felt, if the opposite party must kill itself, perhaps he could not meet one move. 但在莱希亲王面前,柯林却觉得,对方如果要杀自己,恐怕他都接不了一招。 This is life disparity essentially, is similar, is the difference of Spiritual God and mortal! 这已经是生命本质上的差距了,就仿佛,是神灵与凡人的区别！ „Your majesty came.” “陛下来了。” Vera's voice resounds again, Colin turns head, saw a middle-aged man to be pushed by the wheelchair. 薇拉的声音再次响起,柯林回头,就见一个中年男子被轮椅推了进来。 On him wears the magnificent formal clothes, but the complexion is very pale, the lip does not have the blood-color, seeming like truly is a recovering from a serious illness appearance. 他身上穿着华丽的礼服,但脸色很是苍白,嘴唇也全无血色,看起来确实是一副大病初愈的模样。 When Clinton somewhat has doubts, is it possible that this Rinehart Great Emperor does not feign illness, but really got sick? 柯林顿时有些疑惑,莫非这位莱因哈特大帝并不是装病,而是真的病了？ He really is so professional, even if feigns illness, must install with hasn't really distinguished? 还是他真的这么敬业,就算装病,也要装的跟真的没有区别？ Is pushing Rinehart Great Emperor, is Empress Midella, in her behind, follows one on the left and other on the right two little fellows- Harrison imperial prince and Princess Judy. 推着莱因哈特大帝的,正是弥黛拉皇后,在她身后,一左一右跟着两个小家伙-哈里森皇子和朱蒂公主。 Hence, the brilliance empire truly important great people were in attendance. 至此,光辉帝国真正重要的大人物们都到齐了。 Colin cannot bear indulge in flights of fancy, if Wizard Council made a determined effort at this time, comes round of super casting a spell to the Saint brilliant church, if can presenting these people had it all, perhaps the brilliance empire will therefore disintegrate...... 柯林忍不住胡思乱想,要是这时候法师议会发狠,给圣光大教堂来一发超级禁咒,如果能将在场这些人都一锅端了,说不定光辉帝国就会因此而分崩离析…… Thump thump thump! 咚咚咚！ The melodious ding resounds, prayed that in the hall the people tidy up the mood in abundance, puts out the most solemn most and respectful sad expression. 悠扬的钟声响起,祈祷厅中众人纷纷收拾心情,拿出最为肃穆悲伤的表情。 The Pope Griga actually great voice starts to reverberate in the hall old: 教皇格里高瑞苍老却宏大的声音开始在厅中回荡: „ Benevolent brilliance lord, we gather today here, must for Lethem St. Lawrence Consul offers the prayer, he has walked the distance in the world, finally return Lord bosom. “仁慈的光辉之主,今日我们聚集在此,要为莱托姆・圣洛伦佐执政官献上祷告,他已走完了世上的路程,终于回归主的怀抱。 Comes in the dust, turning over to the dust. 来之于尘土,归之于尘土。 Hope you by the unsurpassed mighty force, bestows him to rest...... ” 愿您以无上的伟力,赐他以安息……” „Wait!” “等等！” Beyond reason, actually in expected, the prayer of Pope was broken by an impolite sound crudely. 情理之外,却又在意料之中,教皇的祷告被一个无礼的声音粗暴打断。 Colin goes following the prestige, sees a facial features solemn and respectful middle-aged man to go out of the crowd slowly, arrived at the center of pray hall, to Pope Griga. 柯林循声望去,就见一位面容肃穆的中年男子缓缓走出人群,来到了祈祷厅的中央,正对着格里高瑞教皇。 „He is the Consul Lethem son- Fred St. Lawrence.” Vera's voice resounds in Colin ear again. “他是莱托姆执政官的儿子-弗雷德・圣洛伦佐。”薇拉的声音再次在柯林耳边响起。 Colin have a relish looks at front, is anticipating the following performance. 柯林饶有兴致地看着面前的这一幕,期待着接下来的表演。 He knows, the good play will soon begin. 他知道,好戏即将开场。
