A true hero marries a man by his appearance [Comprehensive]

For "the old enemy who is said to kill him", Eddie attaches great importance to it.

Although in the past few years, he completely forgot about his old enemy for special reasons-this is not important, in short, he went to the neighboring country where the enemy is located, with the idea of ​​inquiring about intelligence, or directly fighting.

however.

On the way there, he was astonishingly imposing, with an indestructible and fierce edge.Black Eagle stood on his shoulders, his eyes were also flickering with coldness.

When he arrived, his momentum——

"........."

"...I'm not mistaken, Lucas, that little guy, that little guy sitting still, could it be Solomon!"

Lucas: "...Gah."

No... find a mistake.

perhaps.

This psychological gap is a bit big.

Unexpectedly, it was still too early. Solomon was born, but what was in front of him was just a little kid!

Fortunately, Eddie didn't show up directly in front of the "enemy" impatiently, otherwise he would appear with arrogance, but what he faced was a kid who he could take care of with just one finger—what is this, bullying children? !

He absolutely can't pull this face off.

As a result, the momentum suddenly dropped by half, disappointing the man who was once again poured cold water on him.

Eddie, who was too lazy to bully the little ghost, and lacked interest, planned to go back and wait for ten or twenty years before coming back.

But when he was about to leave, his dear Lucas, who understood the heart of a big brother, motioned him to stop, and pointed to the interior of the palace with the tip of his wing.

Eddie: "What do you mean, let me take this opportunity to secretly observe the future enemy?"

Lucas: "Quack!"

Eddie: "What's the point of being a brat..."

In the middle of the talk, he was suddenly blessed, and he finally had a tacit understanding with Lucas: "Ah! That's great, Lucas! Anyway, they are here, and the enemy is still an enemy no matter how insignificant it is. It's okay to investigate the enemy's situation .”

That being said, as long as you understand his nature, you will know that this is an excuse for random nonsense.

Don't say anything about observation, it's already very good to let Eddie come over to take a look in advance, and it's a great face.

"Things" like enemies, except for the ones that can't be killed, generally don't let this indifferent man take it to heart, and kill them directly when they encounter them. Why waste time "observing".

Of course, this time the situation is special.

Solomon was lucky, he was just a helpless kid, and Eddie didn't bother to lay hands on a brat.

In addition - there are still decades to go, and Eddie has been tortured by various things in the country, and urgently needs to find something that has nothing to do with government affairs to relax.

Compared with going back and continuing to feel aggrieved not long after I came out, it is better to justifiably "investigate the enemy's situation".

Therefore, Eddie stayed to "observe" the enemy in his infancy with such a legitimate and no psychological burden.

Then, he obviously just wanted to take the opportunity to relax, and he didn't have much interest in Solomon himself, but his attitude of not caring about it changed subtly over time.

Simply unexpected.

"Depend on."

Said a certain man who watched all the day-to-day life of the future enemy with cold eyes in the dark.

"What the hell. Watching here for a day is actually more boring than going back to deal with messy things."

"This Solomon—why do I feel that something is wrong no matter how you look at it!"

……

What kind of physiological state should a five-year-old human cub have?

I don't have one, so I don't know, but according to the occasional glimpses, even if it's not lively enough to go to the house every day, it should talk a little bit, be a little bit naughty, at least it's a bit like a little devil's energy.

But this is not what I saw.

It doesn't have the slightest bit of "vitality".

He was obviously alive and still panting, but from the eyes of others, it seemed that there was no one in that place at all.His eyes passed through without leaving any trace, and naturally there was no mood swing.

It was early in the morning when Eddie came, just in time to go through Solomon's day-to-day routine.

Solomon, who was only five years old, lived alone in a palace with a good environment and countless servants. At first glance, this treatment was quite good.

However, when Eddie came, he saw a white-haired, brown-skinned kid sitting at the table, holding a brick book with hundreds of pages in his hand, reading it alone.

It was silent, except for the noise of flipping books, it seemed that there was no life in the room.

After reading the book all morning, Solomon stopped to eat after the servant opened the door to deliver the food.After he finished his meal, the servants took away the tableware, and for the rest of the time, he sat here alone and read a book in silence.

Fortunately - this afternoon, not all reading.

Solomon, who was sitting on a chair with his head above the table, finally finished reading the brick book. He closed the book and put it aside.

He has been observing in the dark since the morning, and now Eddie is really about to fall asleep. Suddenly, he saw that the kid seemed to be reading other than books and finally made other movements. He immediately cheered up and continued to look down.

well.

He saw it.

After Solomon closed the book, he didn't stand up and move around, he just sat there upright, obviously he had maintained this supposedly rather tired posture for most of the day, but he didn't even bend his back.

His gaze was always forward, his brown eyes were open, but he couldn't find the immaturity and innocence unique to children, only the calmness of a lake that was not disturbed by the wind.Or, it is simply the dead silence that cannot catch any ripples.

The kid was obviously just in a daze.

Because the task "books to read" stipulated for the day has been completed, there are no other goals, and I have no ideas, so I naturally enter a state that is not much different from dormancy.

While Solomon was in a daze, another servant came in, not the same one who delivered the food before.

The servant came to bring water to quench the prince's thirst, but during the whole process from bringing the water up, putting it down, and leaving quietly - he didn't communicate with the silent child, not only in words, but also in words. eyes.

Not even a straight look.

Eddie was shocked.

Although he didn't take it too seriously at the beginning, he just wanted to find an opportunity to be lazy, but how could he have expected that his "enemy" would be such a person.

wrong.

Can you use "human" to describe it?It is simply a tool that only has the appearance of a human being, but is completely empty inside.

At this time, he still didn't understand why Solomon looked like this, but he subconsciously disliked it very much.

The originally relaxed mood was seriously affected, but Eddie endured the inexplicable shock and continued to observe.

I thought it would be unbearable just to read in a daze all day, but I didn't expect that the day was not over yet, so Solomon's boring daily life would continue.

At dinner time, like noon, food was delivered by someone and Solomon finished it by himself.

After eating, there was still a while before falling asleep. Eddie, who was hiding in the dark, watched Solomon finally stand up and leave the room that was probably the study.

He returned to his rather spacious bedroom, and then sat on the edge of the bed—continuing to be in a daze.

Eddie: "..."

This brat...isn't he bored! ! !

For a moment, he had to forget about the opposing positions and that he didn't know the white-haired kid at all. Grinding his teeth, he rushed over, picked up Solomon and shook him vigorously, to see if he could shake his spirit.

Eddie couldn't bear the look of dying.

Just the fact that Artoria was secretly brainwashed, she didn't know about it, and she was quite optimistic and positive, would make him quite angry, let alone the more extreme situation that he encountered unexpectedly.

A good person, but it seems that there is really only a shell there.Without a human soul, let alone a human heart, what else could he have?

The huge palace, the gorgeous houses, and every place that comes into view reveals the luxury of the palace.The children living in this palace are naturally pampered and well-dressed.

However, he was served by so many servants, and after a whole day, no one spoke to him, and they all ignored him, as if a transparent but real barrier stood tall around him, separating all kinds of people around him from this Children without feelings are isolated.

At last, when the night gradually falls.

It is rare that Eddie, who had been watching such a boring daily life all day, finally broke out.

Although telling the truth will definitely annoy the man who will realize what he has done later—but the fact is, Eddie got angry and directly forgot that Solomon who was decades later was his worst enemy .

Anyway, at this time, Solomon was served by servants and lay down on the empty big bed, and he was the only one in the bedroom.Eddie showed up without any scruples, and lifted the head of the white-haired little devil in a white robe.

The little ghost didn't respond, and he didn't feel the slightest fear or awe of him who was so mighty and powerful. He only said two sentences in the whole process, which added up to five words.

Saying it means not saying it.

After this worthless conversation, Eddie inevitably became angrier.

He even showed the attitude he should have when dealing with his old enemy. How could this brat be so shameless? !

When he got angry, and with a wonderful thought somehow arisen in his heart, Eddie put Solomon under his arm who didn't respond, and took him away majestically.

By the way.

Obviously, I just thought about going outside for a stroll, but—probably just didn't pay attention for a while.

Without the current king of Israel noticing, the future enemy king of Israel "hostages" the future king of Israel back to the country.

His Majesty the King, who had skipped work all day, had just returned to the palace when the guards spotted him at dawn.

Immediately, the ministers who had spent the night on the floor under His Majesty's favorite roof swarmed up and surrounded His Majesty.

His Majesty the King, who didn't relax at all, was furious: "Idiot! If you don't go back to sleep and come to me to blow the cold wind, you can help approve those official documents that only need to be stamped and written with a name!"

"It's not just about official documents, Your Majesty, we have urgent military affairs to report to you, but your Majesty yesterday..."

It was not too early or too late, but it happened that I skipped work yesterday, but the courtiers who learned of the emergency were so anxious that they stayed here all night, waiting for His Majesty the King to return and report the military affairs as soon as possible.

Hearing this sentence, Eddie's expression faded, but although he restrained his irritability, he couldn't see any seriousness.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

He didn't stop walking, and walked straight into the meeting room that was usually filled with official documents and parchments, as if he wanted to listen to the report while walking.

"That's right, Your Majesty. According to the news yesterday afternoon, traces of troops from neighboring countries were found on the northernmost border of our country. The number of troops cannot be determined for the time being, but there are at least... tens of thousands of people!"

"Ten thousand people?"

"That's right! Even if it's only [-], for us, it's..."

The next words, the minister was a little speechless for a while.

The situation of this very young country, which was named "Papara" not long ago, is really special.

The country's land area is very small. After all, it was originally a wilderness area that belonged to other countries without jurisdiction. When the country was first established, the number of people in the country was only 2000.

Now that several years have passed, even with the continuous stream of homeless people, oppressed pagans, and the new lives born from the combination of settled people, there are only tens of thousands of people.Among these tens of thousands of people, only a quarter of adult men can be used as combat power.

And, most special of all.

Papara has no army.

In the whole country, there is only one person who will really fight.

At this very moment, the stern-looking man dressed in black caught the eyes of the terrified ministers—their king, Eric.

About His Majesty, there is a rumor that is quite exaggerated to most people.

It is said that a long time ago, the earliest people of Papara followed closely behind Eric, who was not yet a king, and saw him perform "miracles" and killed thousands of bandits alone, without a hair. hurt.

These ministers who spent the night anxiously laying the floor in the palace were obviously newly appointed, replacing the original few reckless men who were not really expected to be ministers, and they have served His Majesty for less than half a year.

They have also heard the rumor. In fact, there is no one who has not heard of the country name of Papara.

But after all, they didn’t see it with their own eyes. They believed that His Majesty the King was extraordinary and truly brave. However, they saw that an army of ten thousand people was about to crush the border, and there was no army strong enough to resist in the country. How could they not let them feel anxious?

In fact, I still have doubts, and I don’t believe that His Majesty the King can really match a thousand with one pair as rumored, or even——

"Tsk, what's the rush?"

This conscientious minister never expected that he would hear such an understatement.

At the beginning, it was only one step away, and the man's speed was not fast.But his strides were so big, just a few steps, and the minister who followed closely fell behind.

From this position, only the dark back of the man can be seen. At the same time, a colder voice came over, but what was revealed in the words was incomparable arrogance:

"It's only ten thousand."

"Well, north, right?" He stopped, as if recalling which direction the northernmost point should be in his mind.

Soon, thinking about it, even more indifferent details appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"No wonder I met such a group of sneaky bugs at night." Under the stunned gaze of the minister, His Majesty the King finally turned his head, his arrogant eyes fell on him, and the next moment, he slowly moved away.

Then, His Majesty said: "Don't worry, when I came back last night, I already took care of it."

Minister: "...Huh?!"

Completely, completely unable to respond to what was going on.

However, it is also reasonable to be dazed.

Who made His Majesty the King speak so much information in such a casual tone?It also seems to contain "facts" that seem to be impossible.

Eddie naturally wouldn't explain too much.

Papara... well, that's a really silly name, but what the heck, he takes it all!No matter how stupid you are, you have to admit it!

Do it all over again.

Papara is only that small. Although it is a country in name, it is actually only a royal capital tightly surrounding the palace.

When he came back last night, Eddie discovered that there were dark shadows scurrying about not far from the small royal city.

There may be tens of thousands of people... Anyway, they have all been cleaned up, so he doesn't bother to count the exact number.

"However, let's take a look later."

Eddie's thoughts changed slightly, but what he thought of was something deeper that only he had guessed.

He walked into the meeting room, and saw the scrolls that were almost piled up to the ceiling in just one day, and his face turned dark in an instant.

Just at this time, the minister, who had reacted from the shock, trotted over. Before he was out of breath, he finally noticed the sudden strangeness on His Majesty the King.

"Wait a moment, Your Majesty, what do you mean... Hey, Your Majesty! What you brought is—"

Eddie: "Huh?"

Eddie: "Oh!"

It's only been a long time, and he almost forgot the little things he brought back by hand.

Can't blame him.

It can only be blamed for Solomon being held under his arm for so long, but he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

Eddie remembered now.

He lowered his head, only to see a fluffy white hair, and this white hair is especially like sheep's hair, it looks soft and fluffy, and it is completely impossible to imagine that a person with such soft hair is so cold in nature.

"This one—um."

Eddie sat down behind the scroll mountain where he had already been buried, and lazily rested his chin before picking up his pen.

"Don't worry about it, I abducted him anyway... What's with that foolish look of relief, he's not my illegitimate child!"

Really.

His Majesty the King is completely unaware that he has caused his subjects to care and worry in countless ways.Just the fact that he suddenly brought back a child about four or five years old—is enough to shock the whole country.

So, it's okay not to mention illegitimate children, but to mention...

The minister was stunned, but the guards guarding the door only heard the key words. They couldn't help being surprised and cheered happily: "Your Majesty has finally brought the prince back! There is finally a prince in the palace!"

The voice that was constantly conveyed into the distance was extremely loud, and for a while, it seemed that this voice was everywhere in the king's capital the size of a palm.

So, it seemed that everyone in the whole country knew that His Majesty Eric, who refused to get married, had no interest in women or men, had an illegitimate child, and now, His Royal Highness is back!

ah!It made me cry with joy!

Eddie: "......... How many misunderstandings do you guys have about me, hello!!!!"

No, keep calm.

Taking a deep breath, he decided to ignore the noise from the outside world and concentrate on processing the official documents piled up in front of him.

That is to say, conveniently - he put the future enemy that he somehow brought back with obsession, and put it on his lap.

"Before you think about how to deal with you, you just...stay like this. Oh, by the way, you read the words, then this stack will be handed over to you."

Without any explanation, Eddie took a scroll off the scroll mountain and placed it in front of Solomon.

The table he usually uses is naturally higher than the average one.But the short child was able to show his head smoothly while sitting on the man's lap.

There was still no extra expression on Solomon's immature face.

Although he was physically and mentally exhausted after being held hostage, forgotten, held for most of the night, etc., his body was indeed tired and hungry, but he still couldn't make the most appropriate response to these negative states. Reaction.

Moreover, he didn't even seem to understand that he should be vigilant against dangerous strange men in this situation.

The man asked him to look at the scroll in front of him, so he obediently picked up the scroll and began to read.

"You read, I listen, and then take the pen, and you write whatever I say."

"..."

Solomon picked up the pen again, his eyes fell on the crooked and somewhat indistinguishable words on the parchment scroll, and he began to read the content on it.

"Barry had a dispute with his neighbor Cole's house because the fence of his house was built half a meter longer. Barry refused to talk to Cole again, and hoped that His Majesty could send someone to mediate their conflict..."

"What is there to mediate! Well, write, bring me these two people, and I will mediate for them myself!"

"The daughter-in-law of Chris's family just gave birth to a chubby boy. The family wants to thank His Majesty and implore His Majesty to name their child."

"It's none of my business to have a child—there's no time for a name, write it, and let their parents take it themselves."

……

All the assigned scrolls have been read and approved.What is mentioned in it is all trivial matters.

Solomon's voice was as flat and emotionless as he was.However, he read all these trivial things, and he didn't find any important content in it that was worthy of the dignified lord of a country to read one by one.

There was still no feeling of doubt or curiosity, little Solomon was just aware of it.

After reading the last scroll, he waited for a long time.

As promised, the reply to be written down by him has not arrived for a long time.

Solomon waited a long time again.

Until, a slightly heavy but extraordinarily steady breathing sound entered his ears.

turn out to be--

The man who brought him to this strange place and let him do things without authorization had already fallen asleep peacefully with his head on one hand.

Still can't blame him.

Eddie was not supposed to fall asleep.

However, why is the plain and straightforward voice of the white-haired kid so hypnotizing!

Solomon: "..."

Gollum.

His stomach growled.
