The Star Knight - Chapter 109
A long time before opal buried his head in ractor’s chest, Lecter touched his head and said, “I’m sorry, opal.”
“No Opal said, “don’t say that, teacher. I betrayed you.”
“Don’t blame yourself, opal,” he said
Opal let go of him. At this moment, his mood in the face of ractor was still complex. He did not do what lakert had given him, and even did not choose his own position. His heart was still yielding to, or even quite submissive to, Colin. He was ashamed of ractor and himself, but when he saw him again, he still rushed forward to hold him with impulse and instinct.
However, after the two separated, he suddenly thought of a lot of things – their relationship was very embarrassing.
Perhaps that’s why ractor didn’t want to meet him.
“How did you get here?” As if nothing had happened, ractor opened the conversation. He went to the table, poured opal some wine, and poured himself a glass of bramble.
Opal briefly came back from Raymond’s identity and said, “come to investigate one thing, me and I became an adventurer. ”
“I think adventurers are better for you than mercenaries, opal,” he said with a smile, as if unaware of his nervousness
Opal said, “Oh no, adventurers are too difficult. They need a lot of contacts. You see, without you, I can’t even get into this party.”
“The big astronautics Association likes to use Horace’s famous saying that we should use our brains to solve problems, not to fight. I believe that even without me, you can successfully get involved. ”
Opal said, “is hollius strong? How is he? Is it cunning? ”
“He’s short, as tall as you are now, but he’s the star knight I admire the most, except Nolan. He’s smart, thoughtful, and patient. He’s prepared for a long time. You’ll get used to this pattern. Hollius doesn’t like to fight alone. He rarely starts Saber Toothed tigers. Most of the time, he relies on his brain to win battles. From this point of view, Colin is a little like him
Opal suddenly thought of something, he said: “teacher, you come because of him Did he have any assassination? ”
Ractor held his arm and said, “no, not because of him, just because of another student of mine.”
Another thing opal found was that the silver bracelet on ractor’s wrist was gone.
Lecter noticed that opal was looking at his hand and stretched out his left hand. On his wrist was the string of artificial stone beads that opal had given him a long time ago – a bracelet bought for 400 energy points on B11.
“You still have it,” opal said with a smile
“All the time.” “There was a break in the middle, and Molly helped me put it on,” rakert said
Opal said, “where’s the Dragon ray?”
“He’s sleeping in the stardom. Do you want to see him?” he said
Opal said, “he a dead sleep? Why don’t you take it with you? I mean… ”
“Let’s go for a walk over there. What would you like to eat?” said ractor
Opal left the Moonlight Path and walked towards the green pine forest. Opal had too many questions to ask and many problems to solve. The most important thing was that Raymond was playing a clown in the luxurious hall. What would happen if he knew about it?!
“I knew that Colin wanted to kill again.” “Who’s his target this time?” rakert said casually
Opal said: “I’m not sure. He did have this idea before. Maybe it was the Emperor…”
Opal hesitated, but ractor said, “he has done his duty as a teacher to you. There is no personal resentment between him and me. The duel is because we have to correct each other’s mistakes with our lives. I don’t hate him, so you don’t have to bear too much burden, opal.”
Opal breathed a sigh of relief and said, “really, I’m sorry, teacher. I tried my best. Sometimes I think of what you taught me a long time ago. You said that some things can’t be done by faith. It’s true. I can’t do many things. You punish me. I am willing to accept any punishment to show my apology to you, but there are many things that I will still do and choose even if I do it again. ”
“I didn’t intend to punish you, opal. I put the Dragon ray in the star sanctuary and planned to live a normal life. Because I failed, I had to reflect on myself and accept failure. Now it’s just your friend Rex, not your teacher, as a star knight
Opal:!! ”
Opal didn’t know what to say for a moment. Ractor motioned for him to continue along the road.
Opal said, “did you give up, teacher?”
“No, I didn’t give up, opal. I’ve been thinking a lot these days. On the first day I met you, when you came running with a battery to charge the Dragon ray, I couldn’t understand why my faith couldn’t beat Caroline. You woke up the fire of my faith. But I was too impatient. I mistakenly thought that this was an opportunity given me by fate, because you made me feel the responsibility of teaching again. After several thousand years of Colin’s leaving, I realized the mood of cultivating a person again. So I gathered this belief and tried to fight against Colin again, but I still failed. “Opal listened in silence. Ractor said, “after the second failure, I recalled our meeting. The fire of faith was briefly rekindled, not because of cultivating you, but because I knew a friend worthy of my protection. I even regret that I should not allow you to develop on your own, but should take you to the star shrine. We all live together as relatives of each other, teach you all I will and feel the beauty of being accompanied. It’s a pity I missed you. ”
“I’m really stubborn. I fought with Colin for thousands of miles with my own knowledge, but I didn’t have any idea to experience the feelings and life of human beings.” “So I can’t tell what my belief is. I have no family members, no friends, no strong persistence, no motivation to win. In the end, I even found that I can’t even protect you. How can I fight against Colin?” said raikker? So I think clearly, I intend to put down the idea of fighting him and live a life of ordinary people. ”
Opal nodded and said, “I see, sir.”
“We failed because I lost myself in these long years,” laughs rakert
“It’s not too late to understand,” opal said
Reke nodded his head and said, “it’s never too late for a man to understand what he really needs to do.”
Opal said, “Oh, maybe what I need most is money. I found that since I came to King’s Wharf, my belief is to revolve around money…”
“I think a lot of enjoyment is free. In this universe, the free is more than the charge,” he said
“Is it like this?” opal said
“No, of course not. It’s also money in essence. Empire people always like to eat gluttonous food. It’s one of the seven crimes, which is not good.”
Opal said, “but if you want to live like an ordinary person, it’s necessary to live like this. I think compared with the liquid food of the Republic Eh… ”
“They overeat in virtual networks, too. It’s good to be satisfied properly. If anything goes too far, it’s terrible. Come with me.”
He took food and opal to the lawn. The green pine forest was noisy and lively. Opal chose a quiet place with few people to sit on the lawn to eat with ractor.
“Maybe one day you will do something for In order to… ” With a fork, opal suddenly thought, “beat the old man for food Sorry, I still can’t change my mouth. ”
Lequet really can’t do anything with opal. Opal said, “why don’t you call him black teacher? How about calling you white teacher.”
Rex:…. ”
“I’m kidding,” opal said with a smile
“You look at the sky,” he said
Opal looked up, and Lecter said, “opal, I remember your favorite thing when you were a kid was watching the stars. Have you lost that interest for a long time?”
“No Opal murmured, “I still like watching it now.”
“That’s good.” “The air is free, the sky is free, the sun is free, and the rain is free. They are all gifts from the creator. The Vatican believes that the stars are the creator of the universe. They emit light and heat, so that everything can grow, the dead planet’s surface water, and the air can circulate. And love, friendship and affection are also free, because they are priceless, so they can only be free. ”
Opal said, “no, teacher, some love is also charged Only a small number of people don’t charge for love. ”
Ractor frowned. “Are you starting to contradict the teacher?”
Opal looked at him with a smile. At this moment, he felt that ractor was no longer the one he had known before. Although he was still very young, he noticed one thing – ractor regarded him as an adult.
“Teacher.” Opal suddenly said, “Raymond is resurrected. Can you accept him? I urge you to accept him for me, or try to understand him. ”
“Opal, what would you do if the teacher didn’t accept Raymond?” he asked in a deep voice
Opal said: “I will protect him from you. If necessary, I can only fight with you, but I still love you, teacher.”
Lecter looked into opal’s eyes and said, “as long as you think so, the teacher can’t help you, opal.”
Opal: “no, no…”
“You believe more in this than I do, so if we fight, the teacher won’t be your opponent,” rakert said
“But you have a dragon ray,” opal said
“It doesn’t make any difference in essence. It’s pushing you to the end, and the power of your faith may shatter the Dragon ray,” rakert said
“Really?” opal frowned
“Do you want to try again?” ractor said
Opal said, “I don’t want to I don’t want to fight you, teacher. I really don’t want to, but I can’t lose Ramon
“Then I’ll try, and in fact, I’ve been introspecting myself over the years, because of what happened to LeBron,” raikker said. What’s more, you’ve done your best to keep things from getting worse. When you have to face a dilemma, I think maybe you need to accommodate yourselfOpal finally put down a big stone in his heart, which was his greatest fear. Since ractor did not show clear opposition, it was the greatest gift of God to him.
It seems that lektor doesn’t want to discuss this topic more. Opal also knows that he can’t change his previous impression for a while. The existence of a replicator has already violated ractor’s bottom line, let alone a clone of Colin?
“He didn’t ask us to do anything bad.” Opal could not help saying.
“I said, opal.” “I don’t hate him, I just have to correct our mistakes. It’s dangerous to copy people…”
“But he didn’t have the consciousness of being a replicator. He felt like a human being from the beginning to the end,” opal said. He doesn’t want to avenge the replicator, or build a clone army or something
“Then you can pretend that I’m just an ordinary person, raikker, the consultant to the galaxy atomic billiards club, and not a star knight,” said ractor
Opal nodded and really let go.
“By the way, speaking of this.” Opal said: “teacher, the kind of club you join is that the other side wins a set and you take off a piece of clothes?”
Rex:…. ”
“Why do you think so?” “What kind of game do you usually play?”
Opal immediately made a gesture of surrender, inadvertently exposing his behavior of playing sex / love games. He thought about it for a second, and immediately changed the subject and said, “why do you know that buck, Barna…”
“Baroque.” “Prince of the Empire, he’s my student,” he said
Opal immediately realized that it was wrong and said, “have you taken students again?”
“The Empire has an embassy in the galaxy. The ambassador knows me and likes playing atomic billiards. He introduced me to Baroque. He learned my billiards skills for a year, and now invite me to dinner.”
“Oh.” “When I asked you what atomic pool was, let me think about your answer…”
Lecter smiles. He lies down on the lawn. Opal learns from him and says, “I’m so bad at technique.”
“If you want to learn, I can teach you in a few days, but you have to promise me that you don’t have to bully people with the pool skills I’ve taught you, or take off other people’s clothes,” he said
Opal rolled over the lawn laughing and said, “no problem.”
The sound of music in the distance was getting smaller and smaller. Another meteor shower passed through the sky. The sky was full of countless silvery lights. Opal was dazzled. He did not talk to Rickett again. He felt that it was really comfortable. Everything was so quiet and beautiful.
Until the sound of footsteps was heard beside them.
Opal hears the voice of Rex in his dream.
“He fell asleep.”
A man sat down on his left, and opal woke up in an instant, but he didn’t open his eyes, knowing that Raymond had found them.
Ractor lay on his left and Raymond on his right.
“What should I call you?” Raymond said.
“At will,” replied rakert
