Chapter 14 Lord of Logos (21)

The boy's village was located not far from the forest. Away from a distance, Ella saw older children in the village lined up to practice assassination under the surveillance of several soldiers.

The commander of these soldiers was a knight with medals on his chest. Seeing the boy returning to the village empty-handed, he asked indiscriminately: "Where is your spear?"

The boy lowered his head and replied timidly: "Don't lose it."

"Lost?"

The knight shook the whip in his hand and was about to hit the boy, but the whip was caught by Draguè. The knight stared at Aila and Draguè with big eyes and asked sternly: "Who are you? Do you want to violate the bills set by the Knight King?"

"Bill?" Ella's brows became tighter and tighter. "What is Alfred doing? I want to see him."

"See the Knight King?" the knight blurted out, "You are..."

"Who wants to see me?"

A familiar voice from Ella came from a distance. Alfred rode on a white horse and walked towards this side surrounded by a group of knights. The knight was a little surprised, and saluted a military salute and asked, "King King, why are you here?"

"Yesterday I received a report that there were dragons here, so I came with the knights. Do you have new information about the dragon?"

Alfred's words shocked Ella. The place where they landed was just a remote town, a distance from the capital of Britain. It took half a day to deliver a letter to the capital. But they only stayed in the forest for a night, and Alfred actually led a team to arrive in person. Such a fast reaction speed is not an exaggeration to call it a miracle.

Looking closely at Alfred, it seemed no different from a few years ago. However, Ella felt that his eyes seemed a little more perverse than before.

At this time, Alfred also noticed Ella: "King of Sweden? Why are you here?"

"I'll come by the dragon."

Ella used this sentence to tell Alfred the whole story in a very concise way. Then she looked at the child and the whip in the hand of the knight.

"Garreth, what happened?" Alfred asked the knight on horseback.

The knight who was called Gareth replied: "King King, this child failed the trial and even lost his spear. I was about to teach him a lesson!"

Upon hearing this, Alfred rode his horse to the thin boy and asked, "What's your name?"

The child returned with his head down and said, "Nelson."

"Nelson, why did you throw away your spear?"

"I met a pack of wolves..."

"You can't beat them?"

“My health has always been bad…”

"Then why are you chased by the wolves?" Alfred asked, chasing her, "Have Gareth taught you how to cleverly avoid the beasts in the forest and protect yourself?"

"Teaching...but..."

"But it is not practical in reality? Or did you encounter any accident?" Alfred pursued it relentlessly. "It doesn't matter. Repeat what you learned to me to prove that you are still a powerful warrior."

The boy stammered and couldn't speak. Seeing this, Gareth shouted from the side: "King King, this guy has been skipping classes and has never studied seriously!"

Alfred stared at the boy: "Nelson, is Gareth's true words?"

The boy lowered his head deeply.

Alfred emphasized his tone: "Nelson, you can't even protect yourself from the wolf pack, so how should you face the army of the Tianfang Empire? Do you think the Tianfang Empire is kinder than the wolf pack? I feel that as long as I lower my head, they will not aim their sword at you? I feel that as long as I shed a few tears, they will untie the shackles of slaves and let you go free?"

"King King, you don't need to say so much to this guy!" Gareth said from the side, "He failed to pass the man's trial and will be whipped according to the law!"

"My law is not to consume excess whips, but to cultivate all my people into strong warriors."

Alfred waved his hand, and his servant walked up to the boy with a shield and a sword.

"Nelson, I'll give you another chance - hold the sword and shield I gave you."

The boy gritted his teeth and picked up the sword and shield from the servant's hand.

"Garres, train him again. He is in poor health. He mainly teaches him how to prevent and avoid attacks." Alfred ordered the knight, then turned to the boy and said, "Nelson, remember to come back with a sword and a shield next time during the trial - even if he comes back on the shield, he will never throw it away."

After listening to a series of conversations, Ella asked in confusion: "Alfred, what's going on? I'm not surprised that the Pirate Kingdom will do this. Is this also a custom in Britain?"

"King of Sweden, the Tianfang Empire has expanded its power to the Almani Federation, how can you sleep?" Alfred looked at Ella at squintedly, "In order to protect my country, I must build it into an invincible war machine!"

"War...machine?"

"When everything is ready, I will send a final ultimatum to the Almani Federation. If they still don't want to break away from the Tianfang Empire, I will lead troops to the Palace of Versailles and use the Almani Federation as the front line for fighting against the Tianfang Empire." Alfred drew his sword and pointed to the east, "I vow to attack Isfarahan and kill the King of Kings of Ten Thousand Kings. The King of Sweden, at that time, please be sure to send troops to help me."

"Alfred, I'm here for the matter of the Tianfang Empire this time." Ella took a deep breath and said, "The apostle of the Tianfang Empire had just invaded the Qiqiu Empire, intending to resurrect Alfred, the son of the god who died in battle a thousand years ago. In order to stop that apostle, I want to ask you to borrow Melis."

"Meli?" Alfred's face suddenly became extremely gloomy when he heard this name. "Sorry... Swedish King, Meli can't help you now."

"Why?" Ella was anxious, "Those secular emperors, even if they imitate their predecessors, call themselves the King of Kings of Kings, are all empty. But the Son of God - that is the real King of Kings of Kings! If he is resurrected, can you still keep your Britain?"

"Two years ago, I returned to Britain from the Pirate Kingdom and met the magician of the Tianfang Empire on the way." Alfred said with a sinister face, "In order to protect us, Meli fought to the death with the magician. However, the power of that magician is far greater than her..."

Ella held her breath: "What's next?"

"Do you have to let me finish it?"
