holy flame

The human beings who had been pushed to the edge of the cliff were reborn in an instant because of the undead's misguided indulgence. The new paladin Eric who appeared at the right time seemed to be the holy god's way of expressing that he had not given up. His subjects, and the gift shown - although the actual situation has nothing to do with the Holy Spirit.

Humans launched several small-scale counter-offensives before the summer of the second year, and gradually expanded their territory while gaining a firm foothold.When winter came again, Samuel and Eric had once again stood on the wall of the lost Cap Fortress. This time, although the commander of the fortress would not be Lance, who was the prime minister, it was also Samuel's. Acquaintance, he is Allen...

As for Samuel, although Lance invited the paladins to become part of the army several times, the paladins headed by Hadro have always adhered to their own independent principles.In other words, Samuel left as a senior thug and returned as a senior thug.

"You have made much more military achievements than me, and your leadership and command skills are not weak. Are you willing to obey other people's orders for the rest of your life?" On the way here, Allen couldn't help but asked Samuel .

"As a thug, if the situation is wrong, I can immediately drag my lover and escape. As a commander, especially a fortress commander like you, I must live and die with the fortress."

"That's not what it says."

"What else can I say? The higher the status, the more responsibilities and obligations you need to bear, so Alan, even if you want to win the Paladin for Lance, don't look for me. Although I am the youngest one, But that doesn't mean I'm uncomfortable in the room."

"Well, I understand, you know, I just obeyed and tried." Samuel said so bluntly, and Alan stopped playing riddles.It can be said that [-]% of the credit for Lance's being able to rise to the position is due to the Paladin. At the beginning, of course, he was simply grateful.But after sitting in that honorable seat for a long time, I began to worry.If the paladin can pull the former emperor off the horse and push him, the behind-the-scenes emperor, to the throne, he will be able to pull him off the horse one day and push another person up.

Therefore, if Lance wants to feel at ease, he must at least hold a power that can compete with the paladin, and judging from the current situation, this power can only come from the paladin itself.

"Samuel, be careful." Allen patted Samuel on the shoulder. During this period of time, the original Crowline reinforcements, except for the paladins and priests, had already been dispersed. The soldiers in the army and Valenta Allen also felt that this kind of life was more suitable for him, and he had clearly given up returning to the establishment of the local Holy Court army.The advantage is that he can develop steadily in the camp of the Valenthal Human Empire, but the disadvantage is that when his status has not reached a certain high position, there are orders from above, and he must obey them.For example, now, he came to be Samuel's lobbyist against his will.

As Samuel said, the higher-ups think that those paladins who are old and mature will probably not be willing to submit to the empire, but Samuel and Eric, two young paladins who have just turned 20 years old, should still have teenagers. Human blood and escape——simplified

In other words, relatively speaking, the brain is simple, unsophisticated, and easily attracted by immediate interests.Although Allen thought those guys were just self-righteous, he had to try.As a result, it really failed.However, he was prepared for this kind of result, so instead of being depressed, he was glad that Samuel was sober.

"I don't think I need the advice of a passionate young man like you." Samuel squinted and smiled. He suddenly realized something in a trance, and subconsciously patted Allen on the shoulder. "Thank you, brother."

Allen froze for a moment. He used to have a brother, a brother who gave him betrayal and injury, and now he has a second brother, a brother who tossed him half his life, but gave him the first brother. Brother of Second Life: "I should have said this a long time ago, thank you too, and take care, brother!"

Recapturing the former three fortresses, in the spring of the second year, the human front pushed forward again.At this moment, Prime Minister Lance, who turned the tide in the crisis, has become the hero of the entire human world in Valenthal.And the news came from the capital that the Prime Minister of Lance was no longer as conscientious as in the past. He began to wear gorgeous costumes and bring coquettish and beautiful women to luxurious balls like the nobles he had killed. ...

But for the time being, those things have nothing to do with Samuel.Although his life is still full of blood and death recently, it also has the joy and happiness that belong to him and Eric.

And for more than a year, the Griffin Fur Ball—Eric finally named him, but as the Griffin grew up, the name became more and more inaccurate—has also grown up to the size of a war horse in a healthy and smooth manner. A few days ago, Samuel and Eric pushed it down from the city wall, and successfully let the hairball learn to fly. It seems that when it grows up, Samuel and Eric will be able to ride it. Fly with it.

Another big battle ended. After sleeping for a whole day and night to replenish his strength, Samuel went out to find Goyle. After returning, Eric also got up and was sweeping the floor and tidying up the room as usual.

"Eric."

"Ok?"

"Marry me." Samuel took out a ring - he secretly asked Goyle to help him make it, a simple but unique mithril ring, "Sorry, there are no tears of angels, but , I don't want to miss the second time..."

"Can... let me think about it?" Eric was obviously taken aback. He wanted to accept it, but he didn't know why, but he was afraid to accept it.

"Three days."

Eric didn't know how he answered. When he realized it, he was already sitting on the bed in his room in a daze. But what was he afraid of and what was bothering him?

Originally, I thought I would have three days to think carefully, but in fact, the next day, the undead launched an attack on the city they were in uncharacteristically.At this time, Eric and Samuel are obviously not qualified to stay in the room because of their own private affairs.No one knows, at least for them, this is not the same as usual, difficult but ordinary war. "Samuel..." A blood race in black stood on the edge of the city wall. His outfit was no different from other blood races, but his face made Samuel stop what he was doing.

"Kill!" A few human soldiers rushed towards the blood race with their weapons, but what they didn't expect was that a shield stretched out and pushed them all back, and the one who was waving the shield turned out to be the one who should have become Their strongest backup paladin.

"Julian?"

"Kill me..." The former ranger slowly knelt down in front of Samuel. Samuel's defense of him just now made him feel satisfied that everything was enough.

"My lord?!" Eric, who was near the city wall, was hurriedly pulled over by the soldiers because they said that "Paladin Samuel was bewitched by the undead's magic", but obviously, it was not a bewilderment, but he suddenly discovered A treasure thought to be lost! ——
