Subtitle: When you encounter a problem, you might as well stop and leave the difficulty to yourself tomorrow.

With the help of Prelati, Lu Mingfei clarified the relationship between Emperor Karl the Great and Charlemagne.

--general speaking

Lu Mingfei knew when he was taking the master training course in Chaldea that the same heroic spirit might be summoned with different professions or even at different ages.

From this perspective, the Holy Knight Emperor Charlemagne, who is "the most extraordinary and powerful fantasy heroic spirit (Charlemagne calls himself)", can generally be understood as the "young Emperor Karl".

But, from an equation perspective.

Charles the Great = Charlemagne

but.

Charlemagne ≠ Charles the Great

The key word is the difference between 'paladin' and 'holy king'.

It seems to have been mentioned briefly before, but I have to say it again here. The Paladins are not the Order of the Holy Knights. It can even be said that the Order of the Holy Knights has nothing to do with the concepts of the Paladins.

Historically, "Paladin" means "Holy Knights".

Similar to the Knights Hospitaller, Knights of Rhode Island, or something like that.

But Charlemagne’s ‘Order of the Holy Knights’ means ‘Order of the Holy Knights’.

Here we have to mention the concept of Paladin.

Although due to popular culture, many people subconsciously classify the Paladin profession as a type of religious knight, the actual situation is exactly the opposite.

I can’t say that there is no relationship at all, I can only say that there is basically no connection.

The Holy Temple Church has not proposed a clear concept of "paladin" since ancient times, because the existence of this thing obviously overlaps seriously with that of angels.

So where did the Paladin come from?

the answer is--

"It's Rome! It's romance (Rome)!"

When talking about this, Charlemagne smiled and raised his arms and shouted.

Although it sounds ridiculous, Prelati, who is a humanoid encyclopedia, agrees with this.

The glorious history of Christianity is closely related to the Middle Ages, and the Holy King Karl the Great was the person who started the Middle Ages. The reason why it is closely related is because after Karl the Great became the Holy King, facing the chaotic European continent, he conducted a cultural and The great renaissance of education.

If the Renaissance period, thousands of years after Leonardo da Vinci was active, can be said to be the 'Second Renaissance', Charlemagne was the one who led the first Renaissance. It was precisely because of the first Renaissance that he led that the With the cultural foundation of the long Middle Ages.

The basis of the concept called ‘Europe’ also begins here.

Because of this, Charlemagne is called the 'Father of Europe', and because of this, Charlemagne, who has been elevated to a heroic spirit, can single-handedly practice the power of 'all Europe in the past, present and future'.

It's obviously not an existence from the age of mythology, but it has a spiritual personality that rivals or even surpasses the gods. That's why.

When it comes to the Middle Ages, perhaps the impression of many Easterners is that they are ‘dirty and backward’, right?

This stereotype is not wrong.

But at the beginning, it wasn't as extreme as it was later.

The first Renaissance promoted by Charlemagne - known as the Carolingian Renaissance in history - mainly focused on summarizing and summarizing the truth of the broken Roman culture and the scattered sects of 'Catholicism', and then established The concept of 'Roman Catholicism'.

Roman Catholicism is also the basis of Catholicism in the minds of later generations.

It was precisely because of these achievements that Charlemagne, who was called the Holy King, also received the crown of 'Emperor of the Romans' conferred by the Pope himself.

So the question is, what does this have to do with the birth of the Paladin?

As everyone knows.

In essence, the disputes between the various Christian sects are no different from the feuding among the rice circles.

After the original work was overthrown, various sects responded to the secondary creations that people in different regions liked. In the process of sorting out and promoting Amway's own 'Roman Catholicism', Charlemagne naturally had to revise the Bible. Wait for various modifications to be made to the classics.

To put it simply, he is constantly supplementing the settings in the original work that he thinks are unreasonable, improving the worldview, and adding his own understanding to the incomplete settings.

Charlemagne's name as the Holy King is essentially the same as saying that he is the leader of the second creation circle.

As a creator, if you write too much about various settings and fan works, you will naturally be tempted to challenge originality.

The old Charlemagne couldn't help but do this. He based it on the past adventures of himself and his friends, and added hundreds of millions of artistic touches, and the legendary "Paladin Story" was born.

It’s hard to say whether the books written by old Charlemagne are good or not, but what is his status? Does anyone dare to say it doesn’t look good? If he shows it to you, are you embarrassed not to look at it? After reading it, do you have the nerve to say that the writing is terrible?

His Majesty the Emperor kindly asked you to take it back and take a look at it. Are you embarrassed not to help others?

In this way, although it is difficult to determine whether the original "Paladin Story" is good or not, relying on Charlemagne's overwhelming influence in and outside the circle, the concept of Paladin has completely become popular in the circle.

And because many of the "Twelve Paladins" commanded by Charlemagne are actually not knights and nobles, the Paladins, in addition to becoming the aspiration of ordinary teenagers, are also given a subspecies concept that is different from Prince Charming. , has become the dream lover of countless girls.

The most popular paladin among them is Astolfo. Young people look forward to his fantasy adventures, and young girls look forward to him taking them on a journey on the moon.

Regardless of how it was written, Charlemagne's novels were really full of fantasy at the time and were truly unconstrained.

Although the various behaviors and experiences of these characters in these stories make the Pope look like heretics, do you dare to say that they are not?

Who dares to say that there is something wrong with the writing of Charlemagne, the most powerful figure in the Christian circle?

Even if there is a problem, it must be read and understood so that there is no problem!

Thus, the concept of "Paladin" was officially born.

So back to the original question.

How do all of the above relate to the relationship between the Holy King and the Holy Knight Emperor?

In fact, it's not complicated, and it's even a bit ridiculous.

When a legendary figure is established as a Heroic Spirit, he is usually at his peak when he is summoned, and Emperor Karl was summoned in his peak 'prime' state.

For Karl the Great in his prime, the works he created in his old age were full of various elements such as streaking, women's clothing, streaking, streaking, bondage play, wife play, human-animal play, etc. "Paladin Story". It's really too shameful.

In Lu Mingfei’s words, it is ‘the second disease of old age’.

In his prime, Emperor Karl found it difficult to accept that the adventures he had taken with his companions when he was young were messed up, so he was extremely repulsive to the fictional concept of Paladins.

But the Paladin, and the knight literature that extends from him, has become an inseparable part of European history, and even world history.

The result of this contradictory self-loathing is the birth of 'Fantasy Heroic Spirits' that should not exist.

The young Holy Knight Emperor Saber Charlemagne, who looks like Emperor Charles the Great when he was a boy, but has a completely wrong personality, is cheerful and overly Roman (romantic), appears.

Lu Mingze interrupted at this time: "This is actually similar to the principle of my fabrication of phantoms. By the way, because derivatives of the concept of bilibili are objectively developing and leaving the culture, so I can be like Charlemagne. Same thing, how about making a powerful fantasy heroic spirit called 'Misaka Mikoto', brother, do you want to? It only costs a quarter of one~"

Go ahead, come back if you have the ability to become a discharge girl yourself. Lu Mingfei angrily drove away the little devil trying to persuade him in his mind.

After clarifying the connection between Charlemagne and Emperor Charles, the remaining questions will be easier to understand.

One of the exceptional skills possessed by Emperor Karl - [Sound of Heaven Assimilation].

The prototype of this skill corresponds to the historical deeds of Emperor Karl the Great who rectified the increasingly monolithic Christian circles and established Roman Catholicism.

To put it simply, as long as the people around Emperor Karl have "any slightest sense of identity" with Emperor Karl's thoughts and actions, they will be subject to mental interference, and they will be forced to do so without changing the other person's personality. Affiliated to 'self.

"Because the Great Emperor is a good person, he basically acts out of good intentions, so even if he is an enemy, it is difficult for him not to have a slight identification with his ideas. As long as he does this, he will be tricked."

Charlemagne clenched his fists when he said this, looking extremely angry.

"Damn it! Twisting the beliefs of your companions instead of using words, fists, holy swords, and faith to persuade them to agree with you! I absolutely cannot agree with this outrageous way!"

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and said that from an objective perspective, your own speech was actually quite problematic.

However, in hot-blooded boy comics, when encountering such a collision of different ideas, they basically use fighting to convey feelings. From this point of view, although Charlemagne has a very weird personality, he is indeed very simple and very... Stay true to your 'setting'.

It is precisely because although Emperor Charles and Charlemagne are the same person, they have completely opposite philosophies on life and completely deny each other, it is absolutely impossible for the assimilation of Tiansheng to affect Charlemagne.

"You can't say that."

Prelaty, who played the role of a sage in Charlemagne's favour, interjected.

"The assimilation of Tiansheng corresponds to the birth of Roman Catholicism. This is a process of constant 'seeking common ground while reserving differences'. The purpose of unifying doctrines is not to unify doctrines, but to make doctrines more useful as tools for the emperor's rule, so that others can believe in them. , but he alone cannot fully believe it.”

really.

Lu Mingfei nodded: "I have read a lot in historical novels. This is called 'Emperorology', right? If he really believed all his words, there would be no birth of Charlemagne. There will be no more Paladins.”

But there was one thing that Lu Mingfei cared about.

"Since Charlemagne you—"

"Wait a minute, Ah Fu," Charlemagne suddenly interrupted, "for the sake of convenience, you can call me 'Xia Lulu' like Astolfo."

"Okay, Xia Lulu."

Charlemagne smiled even more happily, but Alta suddenly showed a vigilant expression for some reason, and looked back and forth between the young Holy Knight Emperor and the weak child Lu Mingfei with suspicion.

No, what are you suspecting?

Lu Mingfei always felt that something was not right, but he didn't care. Quan was considered a nickname for some kind of close relationship. After all, Charlemagne himself had no intention of changing the name "Afu" to Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei said: "Since Xia Lulu, you also think that the emperor is a 'good man', even if he abuses the skill of assimilating the sound of heaven, objectively speaking, in order to save the world, he should be our companion of Chaldea, right?"

Lu Mingfei chose his words carefully.

Because it suddenly occurred to me that since Emperor Karl the Great was naturally a companion of Chaldea, could Charlemagne, who was refuting the Emperor, be an enemy?

"Afu, you are right. Indeed, my position is destined to be impossible to be with the Great Emperor, but the Emperor's position is that of a companion of Chaldea, and I am also working hard with the purpose of 'saving the world'."

Oops. Lu Mingfei was a little surprised. This Charlemagne doesn't look like a single-cell male protagonist of a passionate young man's comic. Unexpectedly, he is quite sharp, isn't he? He could actually hear that there was something in his own words.

"Afu, you want to cooperate with the emperor, right? After all, he is so powerful."

Lu Mingfei nodded: "I want to find a chance to resolve the misunderstanding with him. After all, the assimilation of the voice of the sky belongs to spiritual interference, and my physique is quite special, so spiritual interference is useless to me, so I want to find an opportunity." Let’s talk to the emperor and explain what happened in Chaldea. Xia Lulu, you will definitely want to stop me, right?”

".I wanted to stop you."

Charlemagne crossed his arms on his chest, showing an expression of great distress.

"I can tell you ten thousand reasons why I hate the Emperor, but I can't find any evidence to prove that there is something wrong with the Emperor's current actions - have you met Lord St. George?"

"Saint George? Ah, that's a famous person. Although I don't know what he has done, even I have heard of this name."

Lu Mingfei said while nodding, and by the way, he gave the empty cup in his hand another cup of tea. There are a lot of supplies in this sky castle, and I don’t know where they come from.

Lu Mingfei continued: "In the future, he will be almost as famous as Joan of Arc, although I have never seen him. He also appears as a heroic spirit?"

"Yes, and he is still in the emperor's camp. It is no exaggeration to say that Lord St. George is the pinnacle of Catholic saints. I met him before. Although we didn't communicate much, I found that he is immune to spiritual interference. Skill. In other words, that adult was not affected by the assimilation of the sound of heaven."

Charlemagne began to sigh at this.

"Without being assimilated by the voice of the sky, Lord St. George will use his own will to judge that the emperor's action is correct. So if you really want to defect to the emperor, I will not stop you, deputy captain."

No, if you say so, can you please stop looking pitiful like a little puppy who is afraid of being abandoned by its owner?

Lu Mingfei held up the exquisite porcelain cup and concealed his helpless expression with his hands and cup.

Also, I don’t remember when I agreed to become your deputy leader.

——Anyway

At least Charlemagne, as a powerful Saber servant, would follow Lu Mingfei and become Lu Mingfei's companion without Lu Mingfei's request, as long as Lu Mingfei agreed and gave up acting with Emperor Karl.

(A lot of things have been clarified, but there are still too many unsolved mysteries.)

(If the truth about the 'Continental Spiritual Base' I perceived is actually the 'Mobile Holy Capital', the Noble Phantasm of Emperor Carl, then the mysterious heroic spirit that is everywhere and obstructs my observation of the heroic spirit data page is... who?)

(All the evidence seems to point to the fact that Emperor Karl has no problem. At most, he uses the assimilation of the voice of the sky to command his subordinates in order to ensure that he can save the world. But what is this subtle sense of disobedience?)

(. Speaking of which, counting the time, Chaldea should have noticed my situation, right? I don’t know when they will send someone to Chaldea. The rescue team is probably on the way. I hope they don’t rush there. Went to the Emperor’s side.)

(Even if you don’t join Emperor Karl the Great’s side, but choose to act with Charlemagne, the manpower here is far inferior to that of the Emperor’s side)

Lu Mingfei glanced at Alta beside him, who had fallen asleep on the table out of boredom because he didn't understand the conversation, and then looked up at the sky, looking helpless.

"If there is a girl between you and Emperor Karl, then I don't have to choose."

Lu Mingfei himself didn't know what he wanted to express with his subconscious words.

"Huh?" Charlemagne was a little confused. Is this deputy captain hinting at something to me?

Of course Charlemagne didn't know that gamers called dead nerds often follow their facial features. When choosing a camp, they would naturally choose the side with the beautiful leader instead of the bad old man.

However, this interruption made Lu Mingfei realize what he should really ask Charlemagne now:

"Speaking of which, this air base is your Noble Phantasm, right? This place is so big, are you the only one? There are so many people there with Emperor Karl, how about you? Is there anyone else in the current Holy Knights besides you? ?”
