Moreover, current half elf kingdom, authority who also no one dares to challenge Aisha. 或许是觉得自己跟柯林的关系既然已经人尽皆知,那也没必要再刻意隐瞒了,而且,目前的半精灵王国,也没有人敢挑战艾莎的权威。 Let alone, at the Sylph phoenix bloodlines purity, even if she is an illegitimate daughter, no one will say that she becomes the crown prince of half elf unqualified. 更何况,以西尔芙的凤凰血脉纯度,哪怕她是私生女,也没人会说她不够资格成为半精灵的王储。 - 呜- The team that in the long bugle call, the hunting returns presents the forest edge in not far away gradually, is turning toward the reviewing stand to speed away. 长号声中,狩猎归来的队伍渐渐出现在不远处的森林边缘,正向着观礼台疾驰而来。 „Teacher! Teacher! The Elder Brother really hunted a brown bear!” “老师！老师！哥哥真的狩猎到了一头棕熊！” Also before without arriving in stage, Colin hears the sound that Princess Judy shouted and wrangled, even if rumble the hoofbeat is unable to cover. 还没到台前,柯林就听到了朱蒂公主大呼小叫的声音,哪怕隆隆的马蹄声都无法掩盖。 „Yes!” Colin Station, welcomed with a smile to returning hunting team. “是嘛！”柯林站了起来,笑着迎向归来的狩猎队伍。 Harrison imperial prince pushes to the front, naturally to team most front row, quickly to reviewing stand, he restrains horse reins/bridle adeptly, after slowing down the speed, jumps down from the horseback, before the inertia to/clashes several steps, just stops by the stage, bows to salute saying: 哈里森皇子一马当先,理所当然地冲在队伍最前列,快到观礼台前时,他娴熟地勒住马缰,放缓速度后从马背上一跃而下,又顺着惯性前冲几步,刚好在台前止住,躬身行礼道: „Yes, Teacher! Please allow me to give to you this glory!” “是的,老师！请允许我将这一份荣耀献给您！” Properly speaking, today's prey should give to Queen Aisha, but Harrison imperial prince status is special, is not to seal/confer official of half elf queen, no one dares saying that he is impolite. 按理说,今天的猎物应该都献给艾莎女王,但毕竟哈里森皇子身份特殊,并不是半精灵女王的封臣,没人敢说他无礼。 Colin looked at one by the giant brown bear corpse that the flatbed draws, in the heart really somewhat is surprised. 柯林看了一眼被平板车拉过来的巨大棕熊尸体,心中还真有些惊讶。 Thinks that own predecessor in Harrison this age, such strength cannot hunt and kill a grown brown bear probably independently, the talent that it seems like oneself this student is really good. 想想自己的前身在哈里森这个年纪,好像都没有这样的实力能独立猎杀一头成年棕熊,看来自己这个学生的天赋还真不错啊。 „Very good!” Colin nods with a smile, said. “很好！”柯林笑着点点头,称赞道。 Harrison imperial prince raised the head, on the face hung all over the contented smile. 哈里森皇子抬起头来,脸上挂满了自得的笑容。 Before Princess Judy also rides the small colt to arrive at stage at this time, shouted to shout: „Teacher, our rewards?” 朱蒂公主此时也骑着小马驹来到台前,嚷嚷道:“老师,那我们的奖励呢？” Colin brow selects, asks: „What do you want to reward?” 柯林眉头一挑,问道:“你们想要什么奖励？” Harrison imperial prince has not spoken, Princess Judy shouts: „I want Beira!” 哈里森皇子还没说话,朱蒂公主就嚷道:“我要贝拉！” Was saying also raises hand the reins, hinting Beira is that small colt that she rode a moment ago. 说着还扬了扬手中的缰绳,示意“贝拉”是她刚才骑的那匹小马驹。 That small colt does not dig with the claw patiently, obviously did not have to be subdued by Princess Judy completely. 那匹小马驹不耐烦地用爪子刨了刨地,显然还没有完全被朱蒂公主收服。 This colt is the property of half elf royal family, but a colt, Colin does not even need to inquire about Aisha, then nods with a smile, said: 这匹马驹是半精灵王室的财产,但一匹马驹而已,柯林甚至都不用过问艾莎,便笑着点点头,道: „Sure, this is its being honored. However, you must make your servant feed carefully, this Beira young lady's temperament is not quite as if good.” “当然可以,这是它的荣幸。不过,你得让你的仆人小心喂养,这位贝拉小姐的脾气似乎不太好。” „I will feed Beira personally!” Princess Judy holds in the arms the neck of small colt, snow white small hand affectionate flexure the horse neck, is seeming like by flexure to the itchy place, the small colt sends out unexpectedly comfortably rumble sound. “我会亲自喂养贝拉的！”朱蒂公主搂住小马驹的脖子,雪白的小手亲昵地挠着马脖子,似乎是被挠到了痒处,小马驹竟发出舒服的咕噜声。 Princess Judy chuckled immediately. 朱蒂公主顿时咯咯笑了起来。 Colin looks at her darling appearance, smiled, later turns the head to look to Harrison imperial prince, asked: „Harrison, what do you want to reward?” 柯林看着她憨态可掬的模样,也笑了起来,随后转头看向哈里森皇子,问道:“哈里森,你要什么奖励？” Harrison imperial prince hesitant, the vision looked at a reviewing stand secretly, then shrinks immediately, said: „Teacher, your approval to me is the best reward.” 哈里森皇子犹豫了一下,目光偷瞄了一眼观礼台,然后又立刻缩了回来,道:“老师,您的认可对我来说就是最好的奖励。” Colin does not need then also to know, Harrison imperial prince a moment ago secretly looked definitely is own half elf maid Cathy. 柯林不用回头也知道,刚才哈里森皇子偷瞄的肯定是自己的半精灵女仆凯茜。 But is good because of his also a little discretion, does not dare to demand Cathy in such situation to Colin. 但好在他还有点分寸,没敢在这样的场合向柯林索要凯茜。 Afterward, Colin then returns to the seat, making other half elf aristocrats offer the prey to Queen Aisha. 随后,柯林便回到座位上,让其余的半精灵贵族向艾莎女王献上猎物。 Waits to offer a gift, the long bugle horn sound resounds through the reviewing stand again. 等献礼完毕,长长的号角声再次响彻观礼台。 The knight who two are riding the big warhorse walked slowly and aimlessly slowly the arena, the martial arts contest congress of being a focus of public attention opened officially. 两名骑着高大战马的骑士缓缓踱上赛场,万众瞩目的比武大会正式拉开了帷幕。 Meanwhile, an aide half step arrives in front of Colin, the report said: 与此同时,一位侍从快步来到柯林面前,汇报道: „Queen, Count Sir, the eastern boundary envoy seeks an interview outside.” “女王陛下,伯爵大人,东境使者在外求见。” Colin smiles lightly, said: „Comes just right, asking him to appreciate this martial arts contest congress together.” 柯林淡淡一笑,道:“来得正好啊,请他一同来欣赏这场比武大会吧。” „Yes!” “是！” Soon, the fee/spent then arrived at the reviewing stand because of the viscount under aide's leadership. 不多时,费因子爵便在侍从的带领下来到了观礼台。 „Count Sir, Queen!” “伯爵大人,女王陛下！” The fee/spent salutes to the master because of the viscount respectfully. 费因子爵恭恭敬敬地向主人行礼。 Colin from takes back the vision compared with the martial stage on, is saying with a smile: „Fee because of the viscount, was laborious, might as well first watch the martial arts contest congress.” 柯林从比武场上收回目光,笑着道:“费因子爵,一路辛苦了,不如先观看比武大会吧。” „Good.” The fee/spent nods to say because of the viscount, but has not actually taken a seat, but continues saying that „queen, our eastern boundaries also prepared a big ritual for the winner of this martial arts contest congress.” “好。”费因子爵点头应道,但却没有入座,而是继续道,“女王陛下,我们东境也为这次比武大会的优胜者准备了一份大礼。” Queen Aisha stares slightly, then narrows the eye to look to this young eastern boundary viscount, said lightly: 艾莎女王微微一愣,然后才眯着眼睛看向这位年轻的东境子爵,淡淡道: „Fee you had a mind because of the viscount, but, the subject of east half elf, has not needed the boundary to reward.” “费因子爵您有心了,不过,半精灵的臣民,还不需要东境来奖励。” Properly speaking, the masters have spoken rejected, the guest should also give way before difficulties. 按理说,主人都已经明言拒绝了,客人也应该知难而退。 But spent because of the viscount actually patted clapping, making retinue who followed behind from holding a knight sword, said: 但费因子爵却拍了拍手,让身后跟着的扈从捧出一柄骑士剑,道: „Your majesty does not need to consider thoroughly, this is only east the boundary small intention.” “陛下不必多虑,这只是东境的一点小心意而已。” Colin had not cared, when his vision sees that knight sword, gripped instantaneously tightened the fist. 柯林本来没在意,当他的目光看到那柄骑士剑时,瞬间攥紧了拳头。 Because, he recognized that knight sword- 因为,他认出了那柄骑士剑- Marquis Garcia saber! 正是加西亚侯爵的佩剑！
