Volume 1 Forest Knight Chapter 83 Wisdom Sister Murat
After Jesses left, Balian stayed there for a while, stabilized his turbulent mood, walked out, and returned to the banquet hall with Bran. On the way back, although Balian's mind had calmed down, he was still there.
I wonder, is it really possible for me to be with her?
After thinking about it all the way, he knew that what he had to do now was to live up to the beauty's wishes and work hard. Although he was somewhat young in his previous life, he earned dozens of dollars a year in a new first-tier city and was independent.
He is a proud man who buys houses and cars, but his life in the drinking circle is somewhat chaotic, and he has never found a real goal in life.
Coming to this time and space, although it is an ignorant and backward world, it also gives me a chance to struggle. As long as I dare to think and act, I will have the opportunity to ascend to a high position, be recorded in history, and be praised by future generations.
After establishing unparalleled achievements, the status gap between himself and Miss Jesses will no longer be a problem, and naturally he will not let down the beauty.
Even if reality turns into history, history turns into legend, legend turns into myth, and your name and great achievements are still there, this life will not be considered in vain.
Not long after returning to the banquet hall, Sister Murat also came. Not only did she come, she was also followed by a tall religious knight. Most of these knights were second sons and illegitimate sons with noble blood but no inheritance rights.
They were sent to churches and monasteries by their parents to become warriors who protected religious officials and guarded religious sites.
These religious knights, because they grew up freely in religious places, hate all people and things related to heresy. At the same time, because they have devoted themselves to martial arts since childhood, they are often more skilled in martial arts than knights who grew up in a secular environment.
, and fight bravely without fear of death.
Today, Sister Murat brought such a knight with great strength to the scene. She probably didn't have any good intentions for herself. After Balian saw her, he quickly turned his face away, not wanting to be seen by her.
But a lady at the table next to Balian saw Sister Murat and called her loudly. Then Sister Murat turned around and saw Balian at once.
Then, she sneered and led the tall and strong religious knight to Balian's table. She first greeted the lady, then discussed with the people on the side, changed positions, and talked to Balian.
Leon sat at the same long table, facing each other.
Seeing Sister Murat staring at him fiercely, Balian felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do. After all, there were so many nobles here, and he couldn't deal with this excessive old nun. He could only pretend that he couldn't see her.
He lowered his head and said nothing.
Fortunately, Balian did not remain restless there for too long. The three members of Earl Grie's family arrived. After the host arrived, everyone quickly stood up and saluted Earl Grie. Earl Grie and his wife also nodded enthusiastically in response.
"Dear friends, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to today's dinner. On this beautiful moonlit autumn night, I am deeply honored to gather with kind and honest people like you!
Come, dear friends, let us raise the wine glasses in our hands together, oh, this is the best Salion wine, we cannot live up to the wine and the beautiful scenery, come, friends, let us drink this glass together!"
After Earl Lee took his seat, he first brought a glass of wine and gave a short and interesting toast.
When Count Grie was delivering a toast, Janis, who was sitting on top, secretly glanced at Balian. At this time, Balian's eyes were also looking at her. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then turned their eyes away.
This tacit smile made Balian feel sweet in his heart. This girl's smile and every move actually touched his heartstrings. It seemed that he had really fallen in love.
The tacit and ambiguous smile between the two people was all seen by Sister Murat, who was sitting opposite Balian. At this time, her eyes were mixed with personal hatred and anger that she was not able to complete the task assigned by her master.
Shooting at Balian like thousands of poisonous needles.
How could he not feel anything when he was being stared at viciously? Balian also noticed Sister Murat's extreme hatred. He thought that if possible, this old nun named Murat would want to eat him alive.
However, Balian knew that this old woman was not only an annoyance to Miss Jesses, but also an annoyance to himself. He must get rid of this old woman before she could return to Wallombre City to report to the Duchess.
Disgusting old nun.
Tonight's banquet, Sister Murat brought a religious knight who seemed to have good fighting ability. She must have the intention of destroying her own prestige. It seems that she has not reported to the Duchess about herself and Jesses yet.
ambiguous relationship.
Because she definitely wanted to get rid of herself and then ask for credit from the Duchess. Otherwise, if she failed to use the trick now, she would get rid of Balian through the hands of the Duchess. She would only have the merit of informing, which is not a big credit.
.
An insidious person like Sister Murat must have made her plans a long time ago. She is an extremely selfish person and knows all the pros and cons very clearly.
Balian was thinking, is this Sister Murat going to let this person compete with her again? Although he is not sure of defeating this religious knight, every time he fights, he will offend a noble with strong martial arts. This is also
That's too bad.
Although Balian is not afraid of making enemies, especially by making enemies to increase his reputation so that others will not dare to look down upon him, but if a person wants to develop for a long time, he must have many friends rather than many enemies. In any case, Balian does not want to
No more enemies to make.
But reality is always independent of personal will. The more you think about something, the more it will come, leaving you helpless.
Sure enough, not long after the banquet started, Sister Murat stood up. She tapped her copper wine glass with the silver spoon on the table, making a loud noise. After the noise stopped, everyone looked at her with puzzled faces, wanting to
knows what she wants to do.
"Sister Murat, what's wrong? Is the food and wine not to your liking?" Earl Grie stared at the old nun with a gloomy look on his face.
Originally, Earl Gerry hated Sir Sauger for his despicable behavior and became disgusted with Sister Murat. Now she still behaves so rudely at his own banquet. It is really ungrateful.
.
Sister Murat also knew that her move was inappropriate, but in order to regain the lost face, to suppress or even get rid of Balian, she would challenge Balian in public even if she offended Count Grie.
"Dear Count Gerry, my lord, please forgive me for my rude behavior." Sister Murat said, curtsying to Count Gerry.
"The reason why I am so rude is because of the evil knight opposite me who is protecting the witch. He not only colludes with heretics, but also boldly uses sorcery!
During the trial by combat, Sir Balian used vicious magic to cause Sir Thorg's horse to die suddenly, and also tempted Sir Thorg to ignore the spirit of chivalry and attack him from behind.
Sitting with such people, I really feel uncomfortable all over, like countless leeches squirming all over me.
My God, the great god of fire, you must give us your blessing and punish this evil knight, let him go to hell and be burned by endless poisonous fire." Sister Murat was talking pleasantly to Count Gerry.
After saying that, he roared hysterically at Balian.
Balian looked at the angry look of the old nun. Instead of being angry, he sat there calmly, not in a hurry to defend himself, and showing no mood swings.
Balian's performance surprised everyone. If it were other knights, especially young knights, they would have been violent, but Balian could be so calm.
This made many nobles, including Earl Gerry, express their admiration. After all, for ordinary people, when they are around thirty years old, they can achieve a little success with stable emotions, but at a young age they are calm and calm.
, not panicking when things happen is an essential quality to achieve great things.
Sister Murat, seeing Balian sitting there without even looking at herself, the anger in her heart burned even more fiercely. She directly put her hands on the table, stared at Balian fiercely and said: "Sir Balian, you
Do you dare to have another trial by combat? Fight with this extremely brave and undefeated religious knight beside me!"
Balian looked at her like a fool and sneered. After hearing Balian's sneer, Sister Murat became even more angry, and the tall religious knight next to her punched the table directly. This heavy
A blow caused all the cups on the table to fly.
He stood up and shouted to Balian in a loud voice: "You shameless villain, get up and fight with me. Are you still a knight?"
"Yes, this doesn't look like a knight. In our eyes, a knight can dare to face any opponent's challenge. He is really a shameless guy." A fat noble man next to him said helpfully.
"Hahaha!" Balian laughed loudly, "Does that mean you are a good knight if you dare to face any opponent's challenge? I don't think so. Don't ask others for your own hypocritical moral standards.
Also, don’t talk about shame or shame here. Try to see if you can use your mouth to tell me to lift my butt. See which one is tired first, or my butt hurts first.
.”
Everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing when they heard Balian's "mouth and butt". Even Earl Gerry, who had always been very serious, couldn't help laughing, but he picked up his wine glass and pretended to drink to cover it up. He didn't want to
Let so many people see it.
As for the aristocratic man who responded to Sister Murat in a strange manner, his face was green and white with anger, and he was extremely embarrassed and angry. If there was a hole in the ground at this time, he really wanted to get into it and lose himself like this in front of everyone.
It's really embarrassing for such an older person.
After blocking the mouth of this talkative monster, Balian knew that there would be no blind-eyed guy coming to speak to Sister Murat. After all, these powerful people still care about their own face.
Then, Balian turned his head and looked at Sister Murat, and he said: "Why should I continue the trial by combat? That day, under the witness of Count Grie and so many upright nobles, as well as ordinary people, I defeated the despicable murderer.
Bear, isn't this enough?
You have to know that the result of trial by combat is the will of the great Vulcan. You dare to question the will of Vulcan. I think you are the evil witch and you should be pushed to the rack and burned to death by the flames.
You shameless heretic."
"You! You! You..." Sister Murat was speechless by Balian's words. She did not expect that Balian would catch her questioning the results of the trial by combat and accuse her of questioning the will of the God of Fire.
This is a huge crime, and she cannot afford it.
And Balian's words actually made the nobles present nod in approval.
Sister Murat saw that she could not provoke Balian to fight through words. She gave the religious knight beside her a look that had been angry for a long time. She saw that the religious knight immediately stood up, stretched out his thick palm, and wanted to fight.
