Chapter 028 - Knight's Shield Seal

On the surface, Ye Xia purposely made a complimentary appearance to hide his excitement, and then glanced at the palm of his left hand every now and then.

Five minutes passed, Ye Xia's heart changed from excitement to doubt: "It's not right, when I held onto the round shield and longsword seal on the Fiore church door, there was Vladimir's soul power automatically entering my body. But now, even if there is no soul power for me, I don't feel anything such as the power of holy light entering my body? Five minutes have passed and the Knight's Shield Seal hasn't formed yet? Is it really necessary to recite that prayer that Andre taught once again?"

Ye Xia made up his mind and began to overdo the next "performance". He took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, exclaimed: "Good sword! The sword is one meter long, with a hilt of twenty centimeters and a blade of eighty centimeters, which is suitable for holding the sword with the right hand, so on the horse, one can hold the reins in one hand and kill with the sword in the other; on the ground, one can use the shield in the left hand and the sword in the right hand, and spread out across the world!"

Louise's face showed pride as she listened.

Dakarai looked envious. He also served as a soldier for a few years, initially served a full two years, and then four years of compulsory service, three consecutive cycles of merit value have reached two hundred percent, but just do not have the talent to draw on the holy light to form a knight's shield seal to guard themselves, unable to have the qualifications of a quasi-knight, and finally, disillusioned he had to retire from the army and open a bar to do business.

Ye Xia began to pace lightly and slowly, while admiring and caressing the sword in his hand, he began to talk eloquently: "I have a friend, three years ago to join the army, served for two years, the merit value of two hundred percent, confidently go to the church to accept the holy light of the angels to pull the baptism of the holy light, but unfortunately, he was unable to absorb the holy light to store in the body, condensing the holy light guardian of the Knight's Shield Seal, so he retired last year and returned home. So, he retired last year and went back to his hometown. He also told me about the prayer that he recited when he received the holy light bath, I remember it seems to be - King of Angels Vladimir in the Lord, please love you, shed the holy light, let me bathe in this holy light, feel your mercy, may I have the honor to be able to transform the holy light to protect the body as a shield, and transform the holy light to attack as a sword, to protect our great holy country! "

Louise began to fall into a state of ecstasy again when she saw Ye Xia's dashing demeanor of talking.

Dakarai, for his part, was remembering his own days when he recited this prayer.

After reciting the prayer, Ye Xia noticed that the light on the Knight's Sword began to sway slightly, and he slowly turned around, turning his back to Louise and Dakarai and facing the hall door. Ye Xia felt a slightly warm invisible substance conduct from the Knight's Sword through his hands into his body, into his heart, and then outward, dispersing to the ends of his head, limbs, and other parts of his body, and then returning, returning to the palm of his left hand.

Ye Xia felt a slight itch in his left palm, his eyes turned to glance at it and saw that his palm was slowly forming a silver mark of a small circular shield.

Someone was in an excited mood and said to himself, "Good! Next, the Knight's Shield is formed, followed by the Knight's Sword Seal!"

Ye Xia continued to walk back and forth in the hall, muttering to himself under his breath, repeating prayers in constant whispers, going to the window at one moment, to the door at another, returning to his seat to sit down, and then standing up again to approach the bonsai in the hall ...

Regardless of where Ye Xia stood, where he walked, and the orientation he was in, the other three people in the hall couldn't see the center of his left palm.

After five minutes of time, Ye Xia quietly looked at the palm of his left hand, the Knight Shield imprint had been formed satisfactorily. He then glanced at the palm of his right hand, but there was no Knight Sword imprint formed, not even a hint.

Yeesha continued to marvel in admiration as she went around the hall again.

After another five minutes, Ye Xia stood facing the outside of the hall door, stealing a glance at his right palm, then letting out a sigh in his heart.

Ye Xia looked towards the fallen leaves in the yard and was a little disappointed in his heart: alas, the residual power of Vladimir's holy light in this sword was only enough to form a guardian shield, not enough to form an offensive sword.

Louise looked at Ye Xia's back, and she could only see a tip of the sword showing on the outside of Ye Xia's left hand. At this time, she seemed to feel: the brightness of the sword didn't seem as bright as before?

Just then the servant Vijay came through the hall door with a pot of tea, and the light in the hall wavered for a moment.

Louise mentally laughed and sighed, "Oh, so it's just Vijay coming in and blocking out the light."

At this time, Ye Xia turned around, staring at the sword in his hand with eyes full of "obsession", took out a handkerchief with his left hand and started to wipe the blade of the sword, in fact, it was also to use the handkerchief to cover the mark of the knight's shield in his palm; then he clamped the blade of the sword between his right arm and waist, and also wiped the hilt of the sword with the handkerchief of his left hand; finally, the left hand supported the hilt of the sword through the handkerchief, and his right forearm used the clothes to support the blade, and carefully put the sword back into the wooden box. blade, and carefully placed the knight's sword back in the wooden box.

Ye Xia stood and continued to admire the sword, lamenting, "Today, I am honored to be able to see and touch the Knight's Sword that was blessed by King of Angels Vladimir, and I am in a very good mood. I feel that I have just been deeply bathed in Vladimir's holy light. If one day I am fortunate enough to become a knight of the Knights of the Holy Light, it will definitely be because of the epiphanies I gained from admiring this sword today."

Ye Xia turned around, faced Lady Louise, stood upright, pressed the palm of his right hand against his left chest, bowed to express his gratitude, and said thankfully, "Thank you very much, Lady Louise, for so generously allowing me to admire such a prestigious knight's sword, my humble self is deeply honored. But ... Alas ... Please, I am ashamed to suggest that you let Ms. Vega take this sword away and take it out of this parlor. For I fear very much that if I admire it any longer, I will have the urge to clutch it and run for the door at once. I doubt very much if I could repress this inexplicably ingenious impulse of mine."

Vega, who was standing behind Louise's side, gave a little "pfft" laugh.

Lady Louise glared at her, and Vija was immediately silenced.

Louise turned around and immediately a smile sprung up and said to Ye Xia, ''Mr. Ye Xia you are really articulate. Well, how dare I not follow your advice? Vijia, take the sword back to the study, and remember to put it away so it doesn't break."

"Yes, ma'am!" The lovely maid Vijia smiled and came over to close the lid of the sword box, glancing at Ye Xia with a delicate smile before picking up the sword box and exiting the hall door with light steps.

Louise said politely, "So, Mr. Yershia, Mr. Dakarai, why don't we move to the back garden, take a walk, admire the moonflowers I transplanted last month, and then in the evening we'll have dinner together?"

Ye Xia was already in a hurry to leave, lest his master's family realize that the shine on the sword was not as bright as it used to be. He who had just sat down immediately stood up and said with a slight bend, ''I have already taken up so much of your time, I really can't continue to linger and delay you any longer. I still have to rush back to the barracks, so I have to say goodbye to you. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will certainly pay a visit again!"

Dakarai concurred, "Aye. I have been out for a short time today, and I still have to return early to receive the drinks from the transporters and prepare for the opening of the bar on time in the evening! It is time to take my leave!"

Ms. Louise couldn't wait for her guests to leave now, so that she wouldn't have to treat them to dinner tonight, but on the surface, she said regretfully, "That's really disappointing. However, there will be plenty of opportunities in the coming days, so let's have dinner together next time. Vijia, see the guests off." ...

After leaving Louise's house, Ye Xia and Dakarai both rode side by side and walked down the street.

After walking a short distance, Dakarai turned around and couldn't see Louise's house anymore. Dakarai gave a little "heh heh" smile.

Ye Xia twisted his head and asked him, "Brother Dakarai, what are you smiling about?"

Dakarai laughed again and replied, "Don't be upset when I say that. I think that what you just said in there was a bit of a lie." Dakarai laughed out loud.

Ye Xia was embarrassed and smiled a few times, but he couldn't let Dakarai be suspicious of his performance today, so he replied with a smile, "When talking to these noble ladies, you have to use honorifics at all times, say nice things everywhere, tense up your nerves, pay attention to etiquette, and a little bit of bad behavior, people will despise us in their hearts for being country bumpkins and having no quality. I myself feel that talking like that is particularly tired, or talk to you a little easier, huh!"

"Yes!" Dakarai looked ahead, "one has to praise them everywhere when one speaks to them; one has to say 'You' and 'Your Excellency' when addressing them; we try to call ourselves not 'I ' but 'under' and 'my humble self'; and when the subject involves angels and faith, a great deal of praise must be said. It is a little tiring to have to say three sentences with them what we can say in one sentence between us!"

"That's right! That's what's so fake about it! Haha!" Ye Xia was glad that he had fooled Dakarai.

When Ye Xia hadn't joined the army yet, he had already asked Father Gainer in Tasco Town what other buildings or places of interest had been blessed by Vladimir, the King of Angels. The priest said that he only knew that the gate of Fiore church was blessed by Vladimir, but other things, I have not heard of; as for the objects, he blessed two knight swords, one in the hands of Joseph, and one unknown.

Knowing that he was going to be enlisted in the army and heading south, Ye Xia once again asked Uncle Bogdan to investigate if there were any places of interest in the provinces along the road that had information that Vladimir had blessed them before he set off. Bogdan didn't find out any such places of interest.

This time, knowing that Joseph was coming south, Ye Xia was anxious to spend a large sum of money to ask these tavern owner and rice store owner partners in Bogdan to help inquire about the whereabouts of the other sword. Fortunately, this area is close to the war zone, and there is much more information than those peaceful cities in the north. Dakarai, the tavern owner, really found out in such a short period of time that the sword blessed by Vladimir should be the one in Louise's hand.

Fortunately, Ye Xia, who was originally apprehensive, had come to the right place today, and had gained something. After forming the Knight's Shield Seal, the holy light from the Holy Land would automatically enter his body and circulate in his body, increasing his body strength and making him a "Quasi-Knight". If an ordinary soldier attacked him with an ordinary broadsword, he would be slightly injured at most.

Ye Xia told Daklai that the money he borrowed from Daklai today to buy a gift for Louis could be channeled to Uncle Bogdan for payment, and that Bogdan would settle the bill with Ye Xia's parents; or it could wait for Ye Xia he would pay it back each month with his service allowance.

D'Arclay chose to settle the bill with Bogdan, as he needed a bit more money to give the bar a refurbishment these days.

Yeesha said goodbye to Dakarai and began to ride towards the town of Bersenford.

Riding on the horse, Ye Xia was in a good mood and was happy in his heart, "Hmph, now if Joseph suddenly attacked me from the back again, I wouldn't be able to get knocked to death by him with a stick like last year. Although I don't have the power of holy light that can attack yet, but with the Knight Shield holy power protecting me, escaping should not be a problem. If I can quietly steal Joseph's sword's Vladimir's power, and I have the Knight's Sword Seal, then I'll be able to fight Joseph ..."

After walking for a while, Ye Xia saw that there were many more people standing guard at the Moonlight Church in the city of Borna. Ye Xia thought to himself, ''There are so many more people than usual, is there an angel coming? Why don't we go over and ask if there is an angel there? If there is, would that angel be willing to help me plant the Knight Sword Seal?"
