Chapter 176: The Returning Demon
Lu Zhiyu and Eva stood in the crowd, watching the brown-haired middle-aged knight riding a tall horse, straightening his back and maintaining majesty and momentum, crossing the Central King Avenue and heading towards the palace. There was a noisy side, and everyone was constantly crowding in front, wanting to see the legendary Templars and the orcs' Northern cavalry.
"Master, do you know the person ahead?" When everyone was paying attention to the Orc Cavalry and the Templar, Eva's attention was different, and she always paid attention to the expression of the Landing Fish.
Lu Zhiyu tilted his head and looked at Eva: "You know me quite well! You can guess it by looking at my expression?"
Eva nodded: "Because when you are fine, you always smile when you are fine, and when you have something to worry about or fall into memories, you will appear to be relatively dull."
Lu Zhiyu was unhappy: "Hey? I smiled so sincerely, why did it seem to be very hypocritical in your mouth?"
Eva did not speak, but agreed. Lu Zhiyu rolled her eyes: "I did see it a long time ago, but at that time, he was just a very young man, but..."
Lu Zhiyu was silent for a long time and watched Aaron Evans pass by himself playfully, but he did not lower his head at all and noticed Lu Zhiyu and Eva. Lu Zhiyu watched Aaron Evans head towards the palace and finally spoke.
"This time the Cretan Empire seems to be unable to calm down!"
Lu Zhiyu met Aaron Evans back then. He was also an escort of the Elias Merchant. Because he was pitiful by Elias, a young man who was enjoying food. He was not yet twenty years old, but he looked vicissitudes of life. Now he is over middle age, but he looks more restrained and sharp, like a long sword unsheathed.
At that time, the owner of the Elias merchant group, Elias, the old friend of Lu Zhiyu, had long died, and he became the Templar of the Holy Seville Empire of the Orc Kingdom, the commander of the Northern Legion, and the leading figure in the Orc Kingdom.
If you look at his identity carefully, you will know that he was the youngest son of Everns, the former prime minister of the Cretan Empire. Everns was a great influence in the Cretan Empire during the time of Iliad VII. Iliad VIII became the emperor of the Cretan Empire. It can be said that Everns was the strong promotion of Everns. Of course, he also received a rich report. In the entire era of Iliad VIII, he was the prime minister of the Cretan Empire and the top figure in the Cretan Empire.
However, he participated in the noble parliament and launched a conspiracy against the Church of Light. In the end, he became a scapegoat because of Grand Duke Vodigan's betrayal. Grand Duke Vodigan successfully ascended the position of emperor. Everns died with Iliad VIII, and the whole family was slaughtered, leaving only two sons. The eldest son Pazaka suffered an accident in the Orc Empire, and in the end, only the young Aaron Everns was left.
Aaron Evans, who was once dreaming about his dreams countless times, returned to the city of Nya in his childhood. This is his hometown, where he grew up, but at the same time, it is also the origin of his nightmare and the place where he woke him up from horror countless times.
Looking at this city of Nia, the scenes in my memory come to my mind one by one. Compared with my childhood memories, decades have passed. The changes that have taken place over the past few years have made the renovation and reconstruction of countless buildings in the city different. Even this King's Avenue can be expanded, but you can still find vague memories from it.
Aaron Evans had thought countless times that when he returned here again, what kind of scene would he return? But he never thought that he would enter the city of Nya, the kingdom of the Cretan Empire, as an envoy of the orc kingdom.
At this moment, I am not a return wanderer, but a completely outsider. I am not a human, but an orc empire. This is really ironic. The world under the changing circumstances will always give people the most ridiculous ending.
"The orc's Templar who walked in the front seemed not an orc!"
"I heard that the messenger this time is a human!"
"How is it possible? How could a human become a lackey in the orc empire?"
"What else can it be? For the sake of power, some people, for power, can even betray their parents. What's so strange about being a lackey for orcs!"
Aaron Evans led the horse, and amid the speculation and doubts of the city, he finally arrived at the door of the palace. Aaron Evans' eyes were also dark and dark, looking at the tall and grand palace hall and the prosperous city of Nya.
Aaron Evans remembered the faces that died on their own, father, uncle, aunt, mother, brother, and everyone's faces were bleeding and accusing them of blood, making him never forgot the damage that the Crete Empire, which became Emperor Vodigan, and the Church of Light, imposed on their Evans family for decades.
How Vodigan stepped on the corpse of the Evans family and ascended the throne of the emperor, Aaron Evans remembered clearly that the Knights of the Light Church of the Light chased and killed them, their mother and son, and forced them to flee in a hurry to the Orc Empire. In the end, his mother gave up her own way of living in order to save the lives of the two brothers.
These pieces were engraved on Aaron Evans' heart like a knife, and were the driving force for his continuous progress. He lurked and struggled for decades, lived alone in a foreign country for decades, and was always waiting for this moment.
At this moment, I entered the Cretan imperial capital, crossed the King's Avenue, and watched the palace appear in front of me little by little. Aaron Evans's mouth kept rising in the arc, his originally high head lowered, and he remembered the words he said when he buried his brother after his mother and brother died.
"When I return, darkness will cover the entire Cretan Empire, the earth will roar, and blood will soak the earth!"
The closer he got to the palace, the more friendly the smile on Aaron Evans's face was. The war horse was stopped at the door of the palace. There, on the steps, Tanbul, the prime minister of the Cretan Empire, came to receive him personally.
Aaron stretched out his hand, and all the knights moved in a uniform manner. At the same time, Aaron took off his gloves and walked up the steps, heading towards Tanbul, the prime minister of the Empire who was waiting above.
"Hello, Lord Aaron, the Emperor is waiting for your audience." Tanbul is a middle-aged fat man, but he is elegant and can't see any problems in treating people and things.
Aaron Evans glanced at Tanbul and understood that this person who was the current Cretan Empire and truly held power. Even compared to King Zorman II, what he said was more useful in the Cretan Empire.
"Duke of Tanbul, our Holy Seville Empire came with friendship this time, hoping to resolve the disputes on border trade and some frictions between the two countries. This is a win-win and win-win initiative, and I hope to get the support of the Duke." Aaron and Tanbul shook hands.
The Duke of Tanbul said frankly: "Of course, His Majesty the Emperor also hopes to be a friend of the Holy Seville Empire. His Majesty specially held a banquet for you in the evening, and I hope you can also attend at that time."
Aaron Evans nodded happily and continued, "It's very honorable!"
