Vol 3 Chapter 23: knight

While rectifying the military affairs of the Indochina Peninsula in order to increase his influence among these officers and soldiers, Jingyu really contacted the eunuchs of Luoyang. They secretly suggested that they negotiate with Britannia and take advantage of the opportunity to sign a so-called'never infringe' treaty.
Jingyu, who has once attacked all the territories of the world, can of course understand how limited such a treaty is. He just needed an excuse, a legitimate excuse to go to Pendragon, the imperial capital of Brittania.
At this time, the Britannia Empire Pendragon, the ministers in charge, were also losing a round table knight for the failure of the Indo-South Peninsular Raiders, and the round table knight also swore allegiance to the generals of other countries. Panic and fierce argument.
Nobles and some royals believed that Mariana's behavior was a blatant betrayal of the empire and the emperor. A permanent wanted order should be issued, and the Chinese Federation is strongly urged to return it in order to give it the harshest punishment.
This proposal did not receive the support of the military and other round table knights. They believe that in the case of defeat, Marianna gave up her honor and preserved hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers of the empire. It is a virtue and should be praised.
The two views hold on. The focus of the debate is whether Mariana is guilty. This also made those related to Mariana wondering if they would be implicated, and had to live anxiously.
Emperor Charles also faced such a situation for the first time. After being upset by the various proposals of the ministers, he decided to hang out these guys who had lost their calmness, and because of physical discomfort, no one would be seen in the short term.
The ministers were helpless and sent messengers to the outskirts of the palace, hoping that the people there could do something about it. Of course, the messengers could not enter the gate. Finally, they told the second queen Conelia that she would convey them to the real palace. The owner, Knight Altolia Pendragon.
Cornelia admired Mariana very much, yearning to become a female warrior like her. He was shocked to hear that she had defeated her captive. That day, it was not the day to go to the palace to study. She still quit all the courses for the queen and hurried to the palace.
On the grass where she and Nonit usually practice sword skills, Altolia still wears a plain blue skirt and teaches some younger children to wield wooden swords.
When Cornelia came, she saw her. However, she did not allow Cornelia to disturb her teaching
It was really a long half-hour, usually like an elder sister, who would look at the children's Cornelia with caring eyes. Today, they are like a "demon", staring at them with fierce eyes.
The children were uneasy.
Altolia naturally saw it. But she feels that these children will become knights in the future, how can they be shaken in the face of such small setbacks? She pretended not to see Connelia and the children's performance and she just finished the class.
When she announced the end of get out of class, she would usually run to Cornelia, and the children who had been practicing sword with them accompanied her, running away in a swarm.
"Cornelia, what made you lose your calm?" Altolia looked at the purple-haired girl hurriedly in front of her and asked with a light smile.
"Teacher, Senior Mariana" Cornelia is still a little unbelievable, with a difficult tone of reluctance to accept the facts: "She was defeated, and was forced to swear to leave the Round Table Knight, and instead loyal to the one who defeated her people."
"Forced?" Altolia froze.
She was not surprised that Mariana would be defeated. However, Jingyu would make such a request, which surprised her.
"What the is going on? How much do you know, tell me." She took Cornelia's hand, calmed the anxious girl, and led her to the white house not far away.
In the living room, Cornelia began to elaborate. The content is basically true, except that the soldiers who lacked c.c. to judge the victory or defeat of the two men only saw the result. Marianna lost to the youth of the Chinese Federation in the duel, and did not hear the content of the three people’s conversation.

Altolia's heart was finally put in place.
"Teacher," Cornelia said in a rather unwilling manner when she saw her reaction was flat. "Aren't you going to do something? Now, the country is discussing sanctions against Mariana."
"So, what do you want me to do?" Altolia asked her back, "I hope I can stand up and lead the British army to attack the Chinese Federation in order to restore reputation to Mariana and the entire empire? Or, say, Wish me to plead for her from the current emperor, your father?"
"This" Connelia's mind has not formed a clear concept, but there are two ideas. However, when asked by Altolia, she felt that both methods were wrong.
First, attacking the Chinese Federation is itself an act of aggression. As a knight, you are fighting against and treating the weak. Obviously, you should not approve and help invade other countries.
Cornelia remembered that when his father, Charles, began to expand abroad, Altolia had visited him once. I don’t know what the two talked about. After returning, Altolia, especially in the lecture, emphasized the third article of the
Knight’s Declaration
:
‘Iwillfightallwh.’
I swear against all mistakes!
That is, when loyal to the lord, you must not ignore that the lord is also a person who makes mistakes, and we must avoid blindly following.
Cornelia didn't know why Artoria hadn't interfered with the knights joining Brittania's army and attacking other nations for merit. However, she knew that Altolia himself would never do this.
Secondly, as stated at the end of the previous article, Altolia never interfered with the decisions of the knights who had already sent the division. She believes that the knights have the right to choose their own lives.
Mariana chose to fight in the Chinese Federation herself, but also chose not to die at the last moment, but sacrificed herself to protect her own army through gambling. All this was a decision she made with a clear mind. It was her Knight glory. What you do for her without permission will be a stain.
Cornelia wanted to understand this, and was troubled.
"Teacher, don't we just watch Senior Mariana suffer this kind of suffering?"
"Of course not." Altolia smiled gently. "There is such a thing in the knight's manifesto,'I swear to help the brother knight.' As a knight, I will not give up any one who encounters difficulties. Knights, even if they don’t know each other."
"This" Cornelia feels a little confused. Does the teacher help or not help Mariana?
Looking at the girl's confused face, Altolia shook her head with a smile.
"Cornelia, you are chaotic if you care, she is loyal to the generals of other countries, and she is not a Britannia national, and will naturally not be punished by the laws of Brittania. Even if the official wants to take her back Now, after losing the war, the Chinese Federation will not compromise.
The remaining question is whether Mariana in the Chinese Federation has been deprived of her will. If she can still follow her own path, I think she is still a knight everywhere. "
‘But, I hope she can still be a round table knight in Brittania. 'Cornelia grunted her lower lip. This slightly willful idea was not expressed in front of the rigorous teacher.
