Hears the speech of Lydia, surrounding noise changes is peaceful, reason that this also no wonder, this Midsummer Festival noisy is so noisy, for is the commitment of Lydia, but life and death that reason that Reformist and Royalist this time struggles , is the same. Reformist wants to truncate the Royalist face taking this opportunity, simultaneously increases own strength. But Royalist is not certainly willing to see similar matter occurrence, say nothing of they were also worried the rumor that these marketplaces spread, for example some mercenary will propose must spend together for night with Lydia, or simply marries to have a child anything. 听到莉蒂亚的说话,周围的喧闹变的安静下来,这也难怪,这次仲夏祭之所以闹的这么沸沸扬扬,为的就是莉蒂亚的这句承诺,而改革派王党这次之所以争的你死我活,也是同样。改革派想要借这个机会削王党的面子,同时增大自己的实力。而王党当然不愿意看见类似的事情发生,更不用说他们也很担心那些市井流传的传言,比如说会有佣兵提出要和莉蒂亚共度一夜,或者干脆结婚生个孩子什么的。 By the Lydia disposition, the words that she said is naturally cannot renege on a promise, but this did not represent Archangel Leader and identity mean mean mercenary that her subordinate and subject can accept itself to love links, do not say that among these two did not have any color, was only a commitment. 莉蒂亚的性格,她说出来的话是自然不会反悔的,但是这不代表她的部下和臣民能够接受自己爱戴的大天使长和一个身冇份低微卑下的佣兵结合在一起,更不要说这两人之间没有任何感情色彩,只是一个承诺而已。 Now, all vision centralized on Rhodes'. 现在,所有的目光都集中在罗德的身上。 Although Reformist failed, but this does not mean that Royalist certain success, because of so far, Rhodes has not displayed obviously joins in the Royalist action in fact. Indeed, he has eradicated two enemies for the Royalist connection, but the political ally is not your enemy is the friend of mine so is simple. All that Rhodes makes most joined Royalist to pave the way for him, only if oneself took a stand explicitly, otherwise before drinking the yellow wine sprinkled chicken blood sworn brothers, nobody so will be negligent the optimistic considering opposite party certainly is own companion. 虽然改革派失败了,但是这也不意味着王党一定成功,因为事实上直到目前为止,罗德并没有表现出明显的投身王党的举动。的确,他是为王党连接铲除了两个敌人,但是政治上的盟友不是你的敌人就是我的朋友这么简单。罗德所做的一切最多只是为他加入王党铺平了道路而已,除非本人明确表态,否则在喝黄酒洒鸡血结拜兄弟之前,没有人会这么大意乐观的认为对方就一定是自己的同伴。 Also because of this, many Noble look to the Rhodes' vision actually is also somewhat anxious, they also know some Rhodes' situation as well as the Starlight Mercenary Group situation more or less, moreover Rhodes displays on arena calm also makes them highly care about ——— their also for fear that Rhodes to make makes them request uneasyly whether sitting or standing, although from the Rhodes' performance, he is unlikely to give Royalist to add to stop up, but a benefit probably big cake, your were many, my was short. These many years passed by, Reformist and Royalist were already saturated on the benefit cake, you divide several me to divide several everybody to know how things stand, now adds a new influence to come in a minute of cake, naturally is somewhat worried. 也正因为如此,不少贵族望向罗德的目光其实也是有些紧张的,他们或多或少也知道一些罗德的情况以及星光佣兵团的处境,而且罗德竞技场上所表现出来的冷静也让他们非常在意———他们也生怕罗德借此做出一些让他们坐立不安的要求,虽然从罗德的表现来看,他不太可能给王党添堵,但是利益就好像一块大蛋糕,你的多了,我的就少了。本来这么多年过去,改革派王党在利益蛋糕上早就已经饱和了,你分几块我分几块大家都有数,现在又加了一个新势力要进来分蛋糕,自然都是有些担心的。 This worry not only exists in Royalist, Reformist is more serious. Because being hostile to of Rhodes to Reformist too was too obvious, they also feared that Rhodes requested Lydia minute of own that cake ——— to have this matter at this time by some chance, that Reformist has not located to cry, after all this is the commitment of Lydia, the entire Dukedom people with one's own ears hear, they impossible to accuse Lydia to frame their anything. Only can do accuses Rhodes, but clearly, this youngster facial skin really very much hòu, looked that he knows facing the appearance that cursing angrily of these many people are still without turning a hair, even if accuse the opposite party at that time, perhaps looks like in Rhodes, resounding that this might as well one comes. 这种担心不仅存在于王党,改革派还更加严重一些。因为罗德改革派的敌视太多实在太明显了,他们也怕罗德这个时候要求莉蒂亚分自己的那块蛋糕———万一真的发生了这种事,那改革派还真就没处哭去,毕竟这是莉蒂亚的承诺,整个公国的民众都亲耳听到的,他们也不可能借此指责莉蒂亚想要陷害他们什么的。唯一所能够做的就是指责罗德,但是很明显,这个年轻人脸皮实在很hòu,看他面对这么多民众的怒骂依然面不改色的样子就知道,即便到那个时候自己真的去指责对方,说不定在罗德看来,这还不如一个屁来的响亮。 Then, actually this will youngster propose what desire? 那么,这个年轻人究竟会提出什么愿望? Facing the vision of people, Rhodes has not actually displayed to be slightly anxious and pressure, not hesitant, he raises slightly to Lydia first slightly gave a bow, this lifts to begin. 面对众人的目光,罗德却并没有表现出丝毫紧张和压力,也没有犹豫,他先是向莉蒂亚微微欠身行了一礼,这才抬起头来。 esteemed Your Highness, some of my indeed incident hope to obtain your help.” 尊敬的殿下,我的确有一事希望得到您的帮助。” "Oh?" “哦?” Hears these words, Lydia somewhat curious eyes opened wide slightly, but Rhodes has not actually cared, he very tranquil continuation said. 听到这句话,莉蒂亚有些好奇的微微睁大了眼睛,不过罗德却并没有在意,他只是非常平静的继续说了下去。 Is this, Your Highness, I have Younger Sister ......... She because of some reasons, innate body is weak, is unable to move like the ordinary people. Healer can cure the disease that she contracts, but is actually not able to change her constitution, therefore, I hope that Your Highness Lydia can treat her body, making her be able to be the same with these ordinary children, health joyful life.” “是这样的,殿下,我有一个妹妹………她因为一些原因,先天身体非常虚弱,无法像平常人那样活动。灵师可以治好她所患的疾病,但是却无法改变她的体质,因此,我希望莉蒂亚殿下能够治疗她的身体,让她能够和那些普通的孩子一样,健康快乐的生活下去。” Said here, Rhodes no longer talked too much, but the people looked to the Rhodes' vision also had some changes, after all Royalist or Reformist, do not think that Rhodes will set such a request of irrelevanting unexpectedly. This really stemmed from their unexpected! 说道这里,罗德不再多言,而众人望向罗德的目光也有了些变化,毕竟无论是王党还是改革派,都不会想到罗德居然会提出这么一个无关痛痒的要求。这实在是太出乎他们的意料之外了! Also these people so will be no wonder surprised, after all this is a rare opportunity, Grand Duke Lydia pledged personally satisfies a desire, even if this matter is they have not met. Now, this youngster had this opportunity, stands in their standpoints naturally thinks that Rhodes will want to choose the expansion influence, or obtains certain support of Royal Family to make his Mercenary Group continue to develop and so on, but now, Rhodes' replied that is big they unexpected. 也难怪这些人会如此惊讶,毕竟这可是个难得的机会,莉蒂亚大公亲自承诺满足一个愿望,这种事情哪怕是他们也从来没有遇见过。现在,这个年轻人得到了这个机会,站在他们的立场上自然都以为罗德会想要选择扩张势力,或者得到王室的某些支持和保证来让他的佣兵团继续发展之类,但是现在,罗德的回答大出他们的意料之外。 Lydia, first somewhat surprised eyes open wide, is gazing at Rhodes, in a moment later, this Archangel Leader has shown an exceptionally gentle happy expression. 就连莉蒂亚,也第一次有些惊讶睁大眼睛,注视着罗德,在过了片刻之后,这位大天使长才露出了一丝异常柔和的笑意。 It seems like, you love your Younger Sister, Mr. Rhodes.” “看来,你非常爱你的妹妹,罗德先生。” I do not hope to make the same mistake again, if Your Highness ——— a person is a matter regrets two, then too was stupid.” “我只是不希望再犯同样的错误而已,殿下———如果一个人为一件事情后悔两次的话,那么就实在太愚蠢了。” I understood.” “我明白了。” Hears Rhodes' to reply, Lydia a slight nod. 听到罗德的回答,莉蒂亚微一点头 I will realize your desire, I can promise you, Mr. Rhodes, I will achieve your wish.” “我会实现你的愿望,我可以向你保证,罗德先生,我会达成你的心愿。” Thank you, Your Highness.” “谢谢您,殿下。” Rhodes lowered the head, to Lydia gave a bow, he has turned around to arrive at the one side afterward. Rhodes can feel that at this moment stands in own side not far away these Nobles vision, inside has the doubts, has amazed, has puzzled, there is an appreciation. Clearly, most Royalist Noble do not understand the Rhodes' idea, but also some people expressed the appreciation to the Rhodes' choice, perhaps they think that Rhodes to avoid incurring the unhappiness of Royalist, will not make Lydia have to feel embarrassed proposed such a request, after all changes a constitution this matter of person, although, person but who in the authority and money sways back and forth regarding these that only then the talented person of Lydia this Archangel Leader rank does, this actually not what attraction. But they, are certainly impossible to guess correctly the Rhodes' idea. 罗德低下头去,向莉蒂亚行了一礼,随后他转过身走到了一旁。罗德可以感觉到此刻站在自己身边不远处那些贵族们的目光,里面有疑惑,有惊诧,有不解,也有赞赏。很明显,大多数王党贵族都不理解罗德的想法,而还有一些人则对罗德的选择表达了赞赏,他们或许认为罗德是为了避免招致王党的不快,而且也不会让莉蒂亚有所为难才提出了这么一个要求,毕竟改变一个人的体质这种事情,虽然只有莉蒂亚这种大天使长级别的人才做的到,但是对于那些在权力和金钱中打滚的人而言,这却并没有什么吸引力。而他们,当然不可能猜到罗德的想法。 Rhodes from the beginning, has not thought expands own strength. 罗德从一开始,就从来没有想过借此扩张自己的实力。 He is very clear, in Royalist, oneself is an external new household, according to the game terminology, now and Royalist prestige are most also crosses ordinary.” Arrives at friendly degree, even even/including respect is not. If come up to want this to want that unavoidably gives people a table manners very ugly feeling. This probably newbie joins guild, has gotten down several Dungeon, depends oneself technology well wants to make Captain Vice Guild Leader anything ding-dong, this naturally triggers the disaffection and repugnance of other members. During the competition of Midsummer Festival, oneself and Reformist the potential with the water and fire, did not have the well distributed leeway, strikes at the enemy also cannot forget to increase the friend. Let alone, now the Starlight Mercenary Group foundation is too weak, could not eat a fatty, proposed that the too excessive request will only make them support while still alive, but these supported undead/not dead their matter, Rhodes can handle, does not need to use this desire. 他很清楚,在王党中,自己还是一个外来的新户,按照游戏术语来说,现在自己和王党声望最多也就是才过“普通。”到达“友善”的程度,甚至连“尊敬”都算不上。如果自己一上来就要这要那的话,难免给人一种吃相很难看的感觉。这就好像一个新人加入公会,才下了几趟副本,仗着自己技术不错就想要弄个团长副会长什么的当当,这自然会引起其他成员的不满和反感。在仲夏祭的比赛之中,自己和改革派已经势同水火,没有了调和的余地,打击敌人的同时也不能够忘记增加朋友。更何况,现在星光佣兵团基础太弱,一口也吃不了个胖子,提出太过分的要求只会让他们活活撑死,而那些撑不死他们的事情,罗德自己就能够搞定,没必要用到这个愿望。 Only then this matter, Rhodes cannot achieve by oneself only. 而只有这件事情,罗德单靠自己是做不到的。 Vivian once very explicit has told him, can change human constitution, only then Archangel Leader this first-level and above existence, Dragon of Light does not need to think, then Lydia became the person who can change the Christie destiny only, because of this, this regarding Rhodes, instead became the matter of primary importance. 七恋曾经很明确的告诉过他,能够改变人类体质的,只有大天使长这一级及其以上的存在,光芒之龙不用去想,那么莉蒂亚就成为了唯一能够改变克里斯蒂命运的人,也正因为如此,这对于罗德来说,反而成为了最重要的事情。 Although Rhodes does not think that Lydia will reject, but hears her to comply at this moment personally, the innermost feelings relaxed. At this time Rhodes also felt relieved, started to surround the following good play with other people same. 虽然罗德也不认为莉蒂亚会拒绝,不过此刻听见她亲口答应,还是内心松了口气。这个时候罗德也是放下心来,开始和其他人一样围观起接下来的好戏。 What second arrives in front of Lydia is Leiya, facing the Lydia vision, raising the head of Leiya without the slightest hesitation, brave is looking at each other with own Elder Sister. But gazed at the Leiya's look, Lydia has been showing very gentle and relieved smiling face. 第二个来到莉蒂亚面前的是莉洁,面对莉蒂亚的目光,莉洁没有丝毫犹豫的抬起头来,勇敢的与自己的姐姐对视着。而注视着莉洁的眼神,莉蒂亚露出了非常柔和与安心的笑容。 You have grown up, Leiya ——— you no longer are the fledgling that needs to shelter, now, you have launched your wing arm, is the time from by the comfortable soaring above this blue sky, that ......... What desire do you have?” “你长大了,莉洁———你已经不再是那需要庇护的雏鸟,现在,你已经展开了自己的翅膀,是时候自由自在的飞翔在这片蓝天之上,那么………你有什么愿望?” I only have a desire, Sir Elder Sister.” “我只有一个愿望,姐姐大人。” Leiya is gazing at own Elder Sister, in that limpid eye pupil, does not have the slight vacillation. 莉洁注视着自己的姐姐,那清澈的眼眸中,没有丝毫的动摇。 I only expected, can live the tranquil life as before, I only hope that can continue own risk and journey, present Dukedom does not need me, Elder Sister ......... I have only hoped life that I want.” “我只期望,能够和以前一样过着平静的生活,我只希望能够继续自己的冒险和旅程,现在的公国不需要我,姐姐………我只希望过我想要的生活。” ............... I understand your meaning, Leiya.” “……………我明白你的意思,莉洁。” Listens to Leiya's to speak, Lydia nodded, she puts out a hand, is caressing the Leiya's hair lightly, helped her reorganize cautiously. 听完莉洁的说话,莉蒂亚点了点头,她伸出手去,轻抚着莉洁的头发,小心翼翼的帮她整理了一下。 I will satisfy your desire, but, you must remember, Golden City and is not only only a palace, it is also the place that you were born, is your family/home ......... If you feel exhausted in the long journey, confused, no matter, you can return to here once more, because, here is your family/home.” “我会满足你的愿望,但是,你要记住,黄金城并不仅仅只是一座宫殿,它同时也是你出生的地方,更是你的家………如果你在漫长的旅途中感到疲惫,迷茫的话,无论什么时候,你都可以再次回到这里,因为,这里是你的家。” ............ Thank you, Sir Elder Sister.” “…………谢谢你,姐姐大人。” Heard these words, Leiya has gawked dull, she was looking at the face of Lydia, dull does not know that should say anything was good. However at this time, Leiya can feel that a warm current after her heart flows, but ———, since mother died, she once thinks oneself again did not have any worrying here, therefore she can accept the resolution, leaves Golden City, joins during the risk. However now, Lydia these words, make Leiya feel that suddenly incomparable shock, she is gazing at the present young girl dull, as if then first time feels, in this Golden City, in this place, there is still one and is flowing the person of same blood, had been waiting for she comes back. 听到这句话,莉洁呆愣了一下,她望着莉蒂亚的面孔,呆呆的不知道该说什么才好。但是在这个时候,莉洁可以感觉到一股暖流从她的心中流淌而过———自从母亲死后,她曾经以为自己在这里再也没有了任何的牵挂,所以她才能够接受决议,离开黄金城,投身冒险之中。但是现在,莉蒂亚的这句话,却忽然让莉洁感到无比的震撼,她呆呆的注视着自己眼前的少女,仿佛这才第一次感觉到,在这黄金城内,在这个地方,还有一个和自己流淌着同样血液的人,一直在等待着她回来。 Oneself do is really right? 自己所做的真的是对的吗? At this time, Leiya felt a restlessness suddenly, she in Mercenary Group, with that many friends and companions in the same place, but how regarding Lydia was? Was own such procedure, too selfish? 这个时候,莉洁忽然感到一阵不安,她在佣兵团里,和那么多的朋友及同伴在一起,但是对于莉蒂亚来说又是如何呢?自己这样的做法,是不是太自私了? Elder Sister, I ............... 姐姐,我……………” The Leiya opens the mouth wants saying that but at this moment, Lydia actually stretched out a finger, according to her lip. 莉洁张口欲言,但是就在这时,莉蒂亚却伸出了一根手指,按在了她的嘴唇上。 Has the words of time, remembers that has a look at me.” “有时间的话,记得回来看看我。” .................. “………………” Looked at the smiling face of Lydia, Leiya anything had not been saying finally, she was only nodded, then, the young girl lowered the head, wipes the tears of corner of the eye. ( to be continued ) 望着莉蒂亚的笑脸,莉洁最终什么也没有说,她只是点了点头,接着,少女低下头,拭去了眼角的泪水。(未完待续)
