Chapter 83: Ambitions
Hearing that the topic had turned to himself Ji Bai tidied up his overflowing emotions and adjusted his state of mind. His indescribably complex gaze calmed down as he regained his composure once more.
What has happened is in the past; Just like water flowing down a river it will never return. But why is it always in the back of my head unable to be forgotten?
As he saw Ji Yue and the other two knights looking at him Ji Bai slightly bowed his head and formed a knight salute.
Alright I understand. Ji Yue casually shot a glance at Ji Bai. She was neither the least bit surprised nor did she express her dissatisfaction towards the branch heads perfunctory attempt as he casually chose a subordinate to replace him.
Her calm violet pupils were devoid of interest as if she was completely indifferent towards anything around her.
May I ask what your surname is Sir Knight. Even though Ji Yue was asking Ji Bai a question she was indifferently looking down at the paperwork in her hands.
Ji Yue wouldnt ask any further questions nor even express her standpoint on things unless it was something necessary. Just like the question she asked about Ji Bais surname it was merely a matter of etiquette a way of knowing how to address him later.
It was just like the image in Ji Bais mind. His little sister truly didnt care about anything.
Your temperament has truly not changed in the least after all this time. After leaving you for so long I wasnt sure whether anyone is bullying you youre eating well or the meals the female servants make suit your taste But now it seems that everything is going well and better than when I was around you. In that case I can put my mind at ease.
I guess the two of us will live our separate ways from now on.
Inside the helmet Ji Bai lowered his eyes.
Your humble servants surname is Li. Ji Bai replied with a lowered voice making it sound rough and coarse.
I will be troubling you.
Thats my responsibility.
The Border Town garrison of the Chivalric Order of Radiant Knights. In front of the gates of the outdoor martial arena.
On top of the stage the frontline knights had their clothes torn off and were tied to human targets. Iron fences were separating the area below where a huge impenetrable crowd of onlookers was surrounding the place.
Everybody braved the scorching sun and overcame multitudes of obstacles just so they could watch this gratifying show before them.
There were some within the crowd who had prepared stools and were comfortably sitting while those having left their house in a hurry could only stand or sit on the ground dejectedly while enduring the sunlight. There were even people yelling trying to sell melon seeds and spr*te.
Lan Yu had set up seats for the tribunal court as well as his administrative group in the martial arena in advance.
Draped in an official generals robes he was nibbling on melon seeds under a parasol contentedly looking down at the bustling populace below him as well as the death convicts being tied to their targets.
Hearing the accusations and abuse the populace were throwing towards the frontline knights a trace of a condescending smile revealed itself on his face.
Esteemed section head the people of the tribunal court have yet to show up. Do you require this subordinate to urge them? Gorm asked Lan Yu for his instructions.
Theres no need to. A duck that one has in their hand will naturally be unable to take flight. The person capable of enduring their temper will be the winner in the end. Lan Yu opened a bottle of red wine poured it into a glass cup shook it in his hand and delicately savored its taste.
Gorm would you think of changing the world if it is rotten and festering at its core?
Hmm? Gorm was somewhat baffled as to what Lan Yu was referring to.
Haha to allow the world to make its changes in accordance with my own thoughts is childish! Since the world is dirty we will have to drift with the waves and have to go with the flow. Whoever is nastier and more shameless than the other will have the last laugh.
