439. Rhetorical question

Elend Knight said:

"I am a knight, so I can pass the test. I believe that even if Mr. Hevin is not a knight, he is still a respectable person."

Hewen said:

"I want to ask you some questions."

Elend stood up:

"We can talk slowly, don't worry, I took a long leave for you, and luckily, I approved my own leave."

He walked to the wine cabinet:

"How about red wine?"

Hewen said:

"Okay, but I thought knights generally prefer to drink strong alcohol."

Allende smiled and said:

"But when you are in a war, you always need alcohol to deceive yourself, keep the pain away from your mind, and let the soldiers find a moment of false tranquility in the hustle and bustle.

"But now, I am in the ideal land, so why do I need to numb myself?"

Allend took out a bottle of red wine with a label Hevin didn't recognize and three goblets, and turned around:

"Of course, I can be considered a more or less respectable person now. Although saying this may sound like bragging, in fact, I can be considered a celebrity in this area where class does not exist. Although I don't have much power, I still do it from time to time.

Meeting some guys who think they're big shots like me..."

Allende placed the cup on the low glass table between the two of them, then leaned over to pour the wine:

"This is a specialty of our ideal hometown. You will definitely be pleasantly surprised."

After pouring the wine, Allender continued:

"It was also through the exchanges with those big shots that I, a former knight, learned how to taste wine. After all, I have been dead for so many years, so I must have changed somewhat.

"It's not that spirits are bad to drink, it's just that when a person is no longer in a stressful environment, he no longer has the same desire for it.

"Now I enjoy every waking second."

Hewen picked up the wine glass:

"I have enjoyed fighting in the past. After cutting off the enemy's heads and stacking them together, we would hold a grand celebration banquet. At the banquet, I would often drink honey wine with my brothers."

"Mead?" Elend's expression was very strange, as if he was asking why you would drink that kind of thing.

Hewen said:

"No, no, no, it's not your common kind. Although it's also mead, we drank enough to drag everyone into the deepest subconscious ocean. Even the brando produced in Old Wharton can't compare."

Allende suddenly said:

"Famos Brando, are they no longer producing?"

Hewen said:

"Production was discontinued after New Era 1263."

Allend sighed:

"what a pity."

Hewen said:

"You passed the test."

Allende nodded and said:

"That's right."

Hewen asked:

"What is your test?"

Allend said:

"You know what? The content of the test doesn't actually matter."

Hewen asked:

"unimportant?"

Allende sipped the red wine: 020 Reading

"The so-called test is to judge whether a person is an excellent knight.

"And if you can prove your bravery, you may not be a perfect knight, but at least you will be an excellent knight.

"I proved it."

Hewen nodded slightly:

"I didn't expect that I could pass like this."

Allende asked:

"How did you pass the test?"

Hewen said:

"She granted me three wishes.

"Then I made it happen."

Elend tried his best to hide his surprise, but his tone was still uncontrollably higher:

"You're done? Not cheating?"

Hewen said:

"That's right, I'm done. The scene was not pretty. The lady who greeted me..."

Hewen shook his head as he said this and took another sip of wine.

Allend said:

"My request is also three wishes. If the difficulty of your wish is the same as mine, then I can only say that I really...

"I admire you very much.

"After she finished speaking, I knew I couldn't finish it, so I pulled out my sword."

Anlai, who was sitting next to Hewen, looked increasingly strange, and he hesitated to speak several times.

Hevin continued:

"You went to see Morgan Le Fay."

Allende's tone was instantly full of reverence and fanaticism:

"You mean Her Majesty the Queen. Her Majesty is a very kind and gentle person. You must go and meet her. If you don't meet her, you will definitely regret it."

Her Majesty the Queen is an evil and violent person. You must not meet her, otherwise you will definitely regret it.

Hewen nodded and said:

"I understand."

Although Anlai thought the change in Elend's expression was a bit strange, he didn't think much about it.

Allender continued:

"When I stood in front of the Queen and knelt down on one knee, it was the calmest time in my life, because I knew that standing in front of such a great and sage king, I didn't need to worry about anything. She created Utopia.

Shelter, if you think about it, she is the embodiment of safety, and anyone who approaches her can feel that atmosphere."

When he knelt down in front of the queen, it was the most nervous time in his life. There was danger everywhere around this tyrant.

"You have heard the rumor that as long as you go to see her, you can make a wish. Anyone would find such a ridiculous thing strange, but believe me, it is true."

This is false.

"And there are many people who choose to go to King Arthur's country when they make wishes. Yes, you are not mistaken, it is King Arthur who once defeated Vortigern. She is really here. I know you

Very surprised, but the legendary king exists next door to us.

"Her Majesty the Queen told us that King Arthur is in a special space because he needs to rest, and the passage is also set up as one-way, but Her Majesty the Queen can know what is going on on the other side, after all, she has such powerful magic power."

King Arthur is not there, and Morgan le Fay is a powerful witch.

In fact, Hewen knew these two points early on.

"I chose to come back. I was not smart enough at the time to know how precious an opportunity it was, so I regret letting it slip away from my hands."

He was smart enough to realize the strangeness, so he was very lucky to come back.

But here comes the problem.

Why could he sense something was wrong?
