Atlas Battle Song

Sensing the precursor of the rebellion, Trander was in a state of anxiety every day.

It is unlikely that the Gorgon family will rebel. It is very likely that the earl has secretly united with several other families and plans to send troops together.Trander remembered that the earl had been doing strange things before, and he often held dinner parties and invited allies to attend.

But even if the pure-blood nobles were dissatisfied with the Empress' rule all the year round, why are they rebelling now?The price of treason must be unimaginably tragic... There should be some more direct motives that are more related to interests.Trand still couldn't figure it out.

These are not things that a teenager can solve.

The only thing that matters now is to arrange everything as soon as possible, and take Master Yi Ge to a safe place to hide.

Trander racked his brains and recalled the situation of each family.

Who can I turn to for help?

"Absolutely not... If you flee to some noble family to seek refuge, they will sell Master Egg sooner or later. Not even Egg's grandfather's house."

What about fleeing to a foreign country?

"We can't do it on the western plateau. Our two children can't live there. Omega, the country of the archipelago, is good. The king rule there is prosperous, and it should accept the children of exiled imperial nobles..."

Talking to himself, Trand drew a lion cub and a leopard cub on a boat on the paper.

"Wait, no! Omega is in the south, the sun is too hot, the young master's skin can't bear it...then...the Pope's territory in the east can't do it either, they have enmity with the empire."

He also drew a little lion wielding a sword.

The tip of the pencil tapped on the paper, and the boy suddenly had an inspiration:

"How about going to the academy? It should be fine too! I can find a job in the academy and support Master Egg. If I escape to the academy...even the empire can't interfere. Alright, this is plan one."

But here comes the problem.

With the goal, the specific implementation process is also worrying.

"But how to get to the academy...the road is so complicated and so long...it's riding a horse, taking a boat, and climbing mountains...Master Egg's body must not be able to handle it now."

Trander thought about it carefully, and it really didn't work.Unless the young master is in better health, it is possible to endure the toss of this long-distance travel.But it will definitely be too late to start after half a year.He didn't know when the earl would send troops.Once the emperor finds out, he will send troops to attack... With Sybil Knight's keen sense of smell like a great white shark and tracking ability like a hellhound, I'm afraid not even a fly can escape.

After much deliberation, Trander formulated a somewhat risky but relatively feasible escape method:

First hide in the imperial capital.

When the young master's health improved a little, he immediately sailed south from the imperial capital to the academy.

Hiding in the emperor is good.

First of all, there are many people in big cities, so it is still possible for the two children to hide. They don’t need to be attached to any lord, so they don’t have to entrust their lives to others; Mega Merchant Ship.

"Ok, deal!"

Trand made up his mind and decided to show his cards to the young master, persuading Egg to agree to run away with him.

That night, the two boys played chess as usual in the game room.

When it was Tland's turn, he tightly held the "Knight" piece in his hand.The little lion looked up at Master Egg, his emerald green eyes were shining brightly.

"Master, I have something to tell you."

"?"

"I want to say..."

"The silly lion is hungry."

"No! I want to say..."

For a moment, Trander didn't know how to speak.After all, he wants to take Egg away, and he wants Egg to leave home forever...Leave such a luxurious and comfortable mansion, leave the kind and gentle maids, leave these shiny silverware and delicate blankets...the two will go to What kind of life do you live?Trander didn't know, but it was definitely impossible to live this kind of luxurious aristocratic life.

Egg held the puppet lion and tilted his head.

Seeing the young master's innocent appearance, Trander couldn't help reaching out and stroking Yi Ge's face.They must live together.No matter how terrible and dangerous the future is...

Trander took a deep breath, smiled softly and said:

"Master, let's elope."

"it is good."

Egg said.

The young master agreed without hesitation? !

"Is this... really good?"

"Anything is fine." Egg looked down at the puppet, and added, "As long as the silly lion is happy."

After making a careful plan, without hesitation, Trand set off quietly.He has to go to the imperial capital first to arrange everything, and then come back to pick up Master Yi Ge.

He left a letter to the old woman, saying that he would go back to the West Plateau to bring back his mother's remains for burial.In fact, this is also the long-cherished wish of a young man, but the West Plateau is too far away, and Ya Xu, who he was born in, is farther away.Only in the future.If given the chance, one day I can go back.

"Bless me and Egg, Mother."

Trand prayed to the starry sky, and also prayed to the moon for the knights who were going to die.

Before leaving, he glanced back and saw Master Egg standing by the window holding the puppet lion and watching him.The firelight is warm, like hot honey tea, like a dollhouse.His beloved Egg was there, smiling weakly at him.

"wait for me."

The boy set off.

After another few days of sleepless nights, Trander walked from the Earl of Gorgon in the southeastern part of the empire to the capital city at the Snake Sea along the post station.

This thousand-year-old capital is still brilliant, and the golden-roofed Night Palace stands in the wind and snow in the north, demonstrating the majesty of the empire.Looking at the golden dome inlaid with moon phases in the Grand Palace, the young man had mixed feelings in his heart.

"Do I actually want to be an enemy of such a behemoth..."

He sighed, shaking his head with a smile.

No one can take away his beloved, not even the ruler of the Holy Empire.

The sky was about to fall, and a huge shadow enveloped the boy.

Trander pondered for a while, then rode his horse to continue making preparations to elope with the young master.

The first is their hiding place.The place to live must be hidden, and it must be in a busy city where people come and go, so that the messy smell can not be discovered by hounds.At the same time, this place can't be bad, after all, it's Egg!Trander could not tolerate a bad place for his beloved young master.

Money is not an issue for now.

Little Trande has been trying his best to save money. I am embarrassed to say that he made a lot of money when he lived in the earl's house.This money is enough for him to support the young master.When they settle down in the future, they can even buy a house that the young master likes... Just the two of them, living like ordinary couples...

"Aww... buy a house in the future!"

Thinking of this, the little lion blushed a little to himself.

"I can support my family! Work hard, earn money, and make Master Egg happy! Real men are so reliable! Yay!"

This idea suddenly gave the little lion full of energy.He burned like a well-stocked stove, looking around with enthusiasm for rental properties.

But reality is always cold.

He was too young, 14, no landlord would want to rent to a child, and he was of West Highlander looks.

"Impossible, you go elsewhere."

"Sir, I have money!"

"Who knows where your money came from, in case you stole it."

"I work for the Knights!"

The teenager argued hard.

"You work in the Knights? Selling prostitutes is also a kind of work. Get out, little black skin in the western plateau, my house is only rented to decent people."

The door closed roughly.

After being rejected once, Trende had to go to the next one.

Finding a house can be exhausting.He looked for a house during the day, and lived in the cheapest small hotel at night, lying with his feet crossed, thinking about what to do next.The accommodation environment is not very good. He has a few little mice as roommates, and the sound of the bed next door is always noisy until midnight.Every day is a different man with the same female voice.Trander thought to himself, maybe this hotel is the sister's regular place of work.

Once when Trander came back at night, he happened to see a red-haired older sister sitting in a tavern on the first floor, smoking a cigarette, and chatting with the boss.Hearing the voice, it should be the sister next door.

When the boy passed by, the red-haired elder sister greeted him with a smile: "Hey, handsome little sir, do you want to come to my sister's class?" She smiled sweetly, and squeezed her arms deliberately, revealing her charming cleavage.

"Go to class? Rodnia, you are going to be the teacher of the little virgin!" The hotel owner laughed.

"Isn't that right? The little virgins I've taught are enough to fill a whole class~ And the divinity students, I'm a good teacher." The red-haired girl waved her hands, pretending to be a governess.

Trande got nothing all day and was very depressed, so he sat down and made fun of his elder sister:

"Good evening, little rose of the Lord."

"Hey, look at him, he is not only handsome, but also has a sweet mouth. Just your clever tongue can make girls happy, right?"

The girl was amused, and stretched out her index finger to lift the boy's chin.

Trent grabbed her hand, pulled it in front of him, and then kissed the girl's hand very gentlemanly.

"Beauty, the god of wine, may God bless you, just as the spring protects the white rose in May."

The boy is gentle, with a pair of charming green eyes under the long eyelashes, and a smile.

For a moment, the red-haired elder sister felt a little palpitated, she pretended to be angry: "Ah! How old are you, and you are just like these bastard men!"

The men in the tavern laughed.Trand was very comfortable, and soon chatted and laughed freely with people.He tried to get information, and from the conversations of the soldiers who were drinking, it seemed that everything was peaceful at present.So it seems that the Earl and the others haven't raised their troops yet.Trander was still a little anxious, and had to finish the preparations as soon as possible to pick up the young master.Once a fight really broke out, it would be very difficult to escape from the earldom to the imperial capital.

"Sweet little guy, what are you worrying about?" asked the big red-haired sister.

It doesn't matter if you talk about it, Trander began to talk nonsense:

"I want to bring my fiancée to the imperial capital to live together, but I can't find a suitable house. My fiancée is not in good health and needs a quiet and good environment. However, the owners of this kind of house are usually arrogant bastards. I'm not doing business."

"Ah, I understand, I understand!" The red-haired girl made a mocking grimace, "The kind of male landlady, who thinks he is a man of property, is very decent! He looks down on you. But after that kind of man prostitutes you Maybe I won’t give you any money, the most spineless thing!”

The girl thought for a while, and then said: "But if you want to rent a house, I have a recommended landlord."

"What recommendation?"

"Mrs. Rosewood. That old lady is very kind and a rich old widow. It just so happens that one of my regular customers is a young painter, who is Mrs. Rosewen's tenant. But that painter didn't make a living in the imperial capital, so he plans to go to the south to make a living. , I won’t rent that house anymore. He told me yesterday, maybe you can ask. They can be rented to poor painters who know whoring for nothing, why can’t they be rented to you, a sweet little knight?”

"sounds good!"

Armed with this information, Trend went to the old lady the next day.

The house is nice, on the west side near the bay.Although the environment is not luxurious, it is very clean and quiet compared to the east side.People living around are well-off businessmen, or small nobles who have lived in the imperial capital for a long time.

He went to see the landlady.

The lady is old, and she is really gentle and talkative.Trande lied that he would bring his fiancée to the imperial capital for medical treatment, which aroused great sympathy from the old lady, and immediately agreed to rent the house to the boy.

"Good boy, take good care of your little girl, and don't get pregnant until she recovers from her illness. A man has to be responsible, and he can't let his wife take risks." The old lady urged thousands of times, and then dragged Trand to talk about the birth. Various details and risks for the child.

Trander was very helpless, so he had to promise again and again, and kept chatting with the old lady.The old man was very happy, and he kept talking about his newborn grandson, and said that he would go back to his hometown of Itil to live with his daughter and grandson, and would not come to the imperial capital often.

Trund thought to himself: "It would be better if the landlady wasn't here. They would be safer living here."

Before leaving, Trand looked at the house again and was very satisfied.The small building on the second floor is no bigger than the big house of Yi Ge's family, but the furniture is warm in color, with sunflower blankets hanging on it, and the grandma decorated it like a cookie fairy tale house.There are still some paintings hanging in the room, which should be left by the ineffective painter.Trand guessed that Master Egg would like this warm feeling.

He rented the house.

The landlady also gave Trand a lovely tea set and a small orange knitted cape, saying it was for the boy's fiancée.

The house thing is settled.Trund finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the next step is to find a job.

"Don't worry, take the young master over safely before looking for a job."

Trander did some calculations, and with his current savings, it shouldn't be a problem.

When everything was done, almost a month had passed, and the boy planned to rush back to Dradite.

He just wanted to go to the tavern to pick up something last, but he ran into an acquaintance unexpectedly on the way.Coincidentally, it was someone he didn't want to see again.

"That's... Hey, Little Trand!"

A familiar voice called to him.

When Trander turned his head, he saw the head of the second knight order.The boy had a terrible headache, why did he meet his former boss at such a time!

Sure enough, the first thing the boss did was to scold little Trand:

"Damn brat!! When I asked you to send a letter, why did it look like a bird flew away??? We didn't come back for more than half a year, we thought you were taken away by wolves on the way! Damn, brat, you're so worried about me !"

"My lord, I'm really sorry..."

"Don't explain, you've been fired a long time ago! Don't even think about being a knight in this life. If you don't do it, there will be a lot of people queuing up!" The knight was so angry that his beard trembled.

Sir Knight Commander had been kind to him before, and Trand felt very guilty.

"I know, I'm really sorry to disappoint you...then take care, and God bless you."

The boy was about to walk away dejectedly, but the knight captain held him by the shoulders.

"Stinky boy, you are not allowed to leave without explaining clearly! You should explain clearly to me why you haven't come to work for more than half a year?"

"This... some small episodes in my life..."

Trand didn't know how to explain it either.

"What's the situation, tell me!"

"Ah...Actually..." Trander could only bite the bullet and make up a story: "I went to the imperial capital after delivering the letter. I passed a post on the way and met a girl there. I got along with the girl, and it turned out that People are pregnant."

"How can you get pregnant after 'getting along'???" The knight commander's violent temper rose again, and he couldn't help admonishing the boy.

"This... Leader, you are not a child, so I don't need to explain the principle to you, do you?"

"Nonsense!" The knight captain grabbed the boy's ears, "Let you spoil the girl! Let you fool around! What will you do next?"

"Later, I married someone!! The man will be responsible! Commander, I was wrong, don't hit me!"

"Married? That's okay."

The knight calmed down for a long time, and hung the sword back on the sword belt.After thinking about it, he was still angry, took it off again, and hit the boy's calf with the scabbard.

"Damn brat, you are as old as my third son, why are you becoming a father!!"

"This...I..."

The farce got bigger and bigger, and Trander regretted it too much.Passers-by stopped to watch, watching a master knight in full armor teach a boy and a half in the street. The two of them were like practicing swords, fighting one and dodging the other. It was thrilling and exciting.The content of the conversation between the two is also quite exciting.The beggar in the corner also eavesdropped.

"How old is the girl?"

The knight commander is a middle-aged man who has devoted himself to the military camp. There are a large group of children in his family, so he is particularly concerned about such family matters.

Trander couldn't escape even if he wanted to, so he had to say: "14 years old..."

"It's the same age as my eldest daughter. I think you are looking for death! Damn boy, I have to teach you a wild boy! The girl's father didn't beat you to death!"

“我们是真心相爱的！别、别打了团长大人！再说人家父亲已经揍过我了，我会好好找个工作，努力让妻子孩子过得好的！”

While Trander was scurrying around, he couldn't help but speak cheaply:

"And my wife is very beautiful, with big gray-blue eyes, long black hair, and fair skin... She's so pretty, little girl!"

"The brat is actually a father, I'm so mad!" The knight commander gave the boy a lesson, and beat him up angrily.

After walking two steps, the knight commander turned back again: "You report back to the knight order within a week!"

"what?"

"Damn brat, come back and continue to work, starting as a knight servant doing odd jobs! You are already a father, and you have to earn money to support your family."

"Varied……"

In this way, Little Trand got a job and found a house.The storm was coming, and he did his best to prepare for it.

Next, the two boys will elope.
