The Legend of Fatality

Lortel-du-Lancaster looked up at the giant portrait in the hall of Oquinn Castle. The painting hangs above the mouth of the huge fireplace and is fixed on the stone wall with a steel hook. It is the masterpiece of the heroic style of the most famous portrait painter Francois-Girarden.

The author of this painting was studying the art style there, so the subject adopted the painting style of Tirya. Justice King Charlie, Aquitaine and Duke of Lancaster, sitting on his snowy horse, rode through the broken city walls and defeated the army of French kings in the magic kingdom of Al Euba.

The king and his warhorse are depicted as life-size, with a light wheel around the monarch's head and drawn sword. In front of him, the swarthy El-Eba slave warrior shrank in a circle. Behind him, the faces of every Burtanian in his army were filled with awe.

Even now, twenty years have passed since Gilalden captured the majestic image of the king on the canvas, and the portrait still exudes a heroic spirit that excites Sir Lothal and deeply inspires him heart of.

"Impressive, isn't it?"

When Sir Lotel heard this question, he only turned his attention halfway from the portrait. His eyes did not want to leave King Charles, who had left a radiant figure at the moment of victory.

"This is very encouraging." He said, his voice shaking with excitement.

The face of the knight became somber because he remembered who he was talking to. He hurriedly turned away from the fireplace and the huge painting, focusing his attention completely on the nobleman standing beside him.

Another Burtanian was in stark contrast to Sir Lotel. While Lotaire was still young, another man had reached middle age. Lothal's hair is black, while another person's hair is already gray. His face was full of pressure from power and responsibility, but Lothal's face was damaged by the scars obtained in the battle.

Wearing a double-layer velvet top and a fine linen coat, the figure of the old duke still shows a kind of contemplative power, waiting to be released. Rotaire's former knight mentor wrapped in a thick leather coat and walked listlessly like a patient. Then, in the eyes of these two people, there is a similarity, including a sharp mind and temperament.

"Sir, please forgive me for being so casual." Sir Lothar said on one knee. "I forgot my identity."

The Duke of Aquitaine was amused by the knight's severe repentance.

"Trust me, things are not that serious." He assured Lotter with a smile. "The appearance of your father, Charlie, the King of Meteor, has re-energized and inspired people's yearning for heroism, which has never been seen since the time of Arthur Pan-Dragon."

"Like the era of the establishment of Burtania, his influence will still inspire the courage in the hearts of the brave." The Duke seemed to recall that magnificent era.

Then the Duke gestured to the portrait and pulled Lotaire's attention back to the portrait.

"Every time I feel hopeless, I will come here, stare at the face of the king, and my heart will be filled with a new sense of mission and responsibility. Your father is a true holy knight, defending all good and The path of glorious things has never wavered. "

The Duke paused, thinking about whether to tell the story behind this young man who used to be his knight servant since childhood. Eventually, he looked at the jazz, and he remembered what he used to look like under the scar on his face. That look has something similar to Charlie and himself.

"Whether it is to lead an expedition against foreign tyrants, or to save the Principality from a monster trying to fight the throne on horseback." The Duke decided to keep the story of King Charles unwilling to mention to his son. "King Charles never lacked courage and honor in these matters."

Duke took a step towards the portrait and smiled to admire the work of this famous painter. "This was drawn by His Majesty the King when he returned to the country from Tiar shortly after his victory against Al Euba. He wanted to leave something for his descendants to commemorate him as if he thought he Great deeds will not last forever. "

"This castle was built by my father, right?" Lotaire asked.

When Duke Gaels's eyes hovered behind King Charles in the portrait, his smile disappeared. Where, someone far less artistically gifted than Francois-Girarden inserted the hind leg of another war horse, almost completely covering a knight behind King Charles, leaving only one Boots and stirrups.

Has no clue as to who the covered knight is, although he was apparently drawn in under the order of the king, and was later deleted. However, the Duke of Gales can guess who this is and why the knight will be erased from the portrait.

"This castle is only twenty miles away from the ancient Aquitaine castle," said the Duke of Gales. "The old castle was used arbitrarily by the Duke of Blood Eagle until its stone was corroded by the vampire's evil, and he defiled it. After the monster was defeated in Camranfield, King Charles ordered the old castle to be razed A new castle was built to level the ground and away from the evil of the blood eagle. ~ Www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The blood eagle left many traumas in this land, "Lothal said seriously. "The farmers on my father's land are still telling the terrible stories of that era, and even some absurd ceremonies are held every year to prevent it from coming back."

Hearing the ceremony that Lothal said, Duke Gaels nodded. "There are more customs like Aquitaine, and many nobles will practice similar customs."

The old noble sighed deeply. He finally glanced at the portrait and left the fireplace to sit on a high-back chair in the middle of the room. Lotel followed the nobleman and sat down in a small semi-circular chair beside the Duke.

A waiter in uniform left his post in a hurry. He stood next to a wine cellar door made of mahogany and brass, with a bottle of black wine and a pair of silver goblets on a silver tray.

Duke Gaels waited for his servant to walk away before continuing to talk to Sir Lothal.

"I'm calling you to come here, not to show you a portrait of King Charles, nor to share with you this bottle of wine with an excellent vintage, but I think you will agree that any kind can be used as a The good reason that Jazz brought to O'Queen Castle. "

The expression of the old nobleman sank and became a little dark.

"However, I am going to discuss with you a more serious problem. This is a very delicate matter, involving the candidates proposed by the Earl of Toulouse to guide my son's swordsmanship better."
