But now......” 她望着不远处正在跟弥黛拉皇后说着话的加西亚侯爵,沉吟片刻,终于还是摇头道:“如果加西亚再年轻十岁,又或者他并没有经历过暗影峡谷的惨败,我当然可以信任他。但现在……” After Colin listens, immediately some are not happy. 柯林听后,顿时有些不高兴了。 Regarding Marquis Garcia, Colin is the intention respect, moreover he has believed, a shadow canyon service cannot be the Marquis Garcia mistake. 对于加西亚侯爵,柯林是心怀崇敬的,而且他一直都认为,暗影峡谷一役并不能算是加西亚侯爵的错。 Let alone, in this world where has the general who often wins the undefeated truly. 更何况,这世上哪有真正常胜不败的将军啊。 Duke of St.Gillian also knows that own words are somewhat impolite, then spoke to explain again: 圣格里安公爵也知道自己的话有些无礼,便再次出言解释道: „ My words are not perhaps pleasant to the ear, but is actually the fact. “我的话或许不中听,但却是事实。 You know why the Saint knight did stress the talent extremely? 你知道为什么圣骑士极端强调天赋吗？ You know why has never had the Saint knight of great talent matures slowly? 你知道为什么从未有过大器晚成的圣骑士吗？ Because the extraordinary talent can progress by leaps and bounds on the say/way of knight, but will not fall into the bottleneck, only by doing so, can, when the promotion Saint territory, maintains the faith that heart of the pure incomparable keeping forging ahead and must win. 因为只有超绝的天赋才能让人在骑士之道上突飞猛进,而不会陷入瓶颈,唯有如此,才能在晋升圣域的时候,保持一颗纯净无比的进取之心和必胜的信念。 These arrived three and 40 years old still unable to promote the mediocre person in Saint territory, had been worn down the fighting spirit, even if in their bloodlines is flowing the inheritance of Saint knight, even if they had to step into the say/way of peak knight potential, but passing wasting time and struggled has made his innermost feelings present the crevice, was no longer perfect. 那些到了三、四十岁还依然无法晋升圣域的平庸之人,早已被消磨了斗志,哪怕他们的血脉中流淌着圣骑士的传承,哪怕他们有踏入骑士之道巅峰的潜质,但过往的蹉跎和挣扎已经让他的内心出现了裂隙,不再完美无缺。 A mentality imperfect person, is not possible to become the Saint knight. 一个心态不完美的人,是不可能成为圣骑士的。 The similar truth, Marquis Garcia of battlefield defeat, after the shadow canyon, the mind then had not once presented the flaw vertically and horizontally/able to move unhindered, later he makes decision in the battlefield every time a time, will be worried unavoidably can oneself make same mistakes over again. 同样的道理,曾经纵横沙场未尝一败的加西亚侯爵,在暗影峡谷之后,心灵便出现了破绽,以后他在战场上每做一次决策,都难免会担心自己会不会重蹈覆辙。 This will make him not self-confident, making him hesitate, making his each decision exhausted struggling, even if his military talent also, but was unable to display completely. 这会让他不自信,让他迟疑,让他的每一次决策都成为一种心力交瘁的挣扎,哪怕他的军事才华还在,但已经无法完全发挥出来了。 In the shadow canyon, that invincible army god Garcia, has died! 暗影峡谷中,那个战无不胜的军神加西亚,已经死了！ Count Angelie, the following war is extremely important, our human must be have the hope of achievement whole-heartedly, therefore, I hope that you can advise against Marquis Garcia, do not command the northern boundary army personally. ” 安格列伯爵,接下来的这场战争太过重要,我们人类必须全力以赴才能有获胜的希望,所以,我希望你能劝阻加西亚侯爵,不要亲自统帅北境大军。” Listens to Duke of St.Gillian these words, the disaffection on Colin face vanishes gradually, then becomes dignified. 听完圣格里安公爵的这番话,柯林脸上的不满渐渐消失,转而变得凝重起来。 Duke of St.Gillian did not urge, but calmly waits for Colin to make the decision. 圣格里安公爵也不催促,只是静静地等待着柯林做出决定。
