On the ground, Darcy pierced Bumantha's body with a shot.
However, there was no physical feeling in the body, as if pierced into a mass of gas and let it dissipate.
At the moment when the figure dissipated, two identical figures flew out from both sides, bypassing Darcy like a phantom, and then pierced two pale wooden swords into his back, making a sound that penetrated flesh and blood.
The red electricity exploded, and the two figures dissipated immediately.
At this time, a woman with butterfly wings on her back gradually appeared in the air.
Compared with the peasant girl's dress before, today's Bumantha can be described as peerless and gorgeous.
The chestnut-gold braids have been spread out, and the golden hair flutters slightly in the air. The emerald-colored skirt is like a superposition of beautiful and wide leaves, with pale golden veins, behind which is a demon. Butterfly wings of different and wide, its base color is black, with a gradual change of emerald to light red in the middle.
These flowers are also of different styles, some are like lily of the valley, some are like chrysanthemum petals, and some are hanging like wind chimes, dotted with trees and grass.
When Darcy's pounce was dodged by Bumantha, he fell again, propped himself up with his spear, panting and shaking.
Seeing that Darcy was still unwilling to struggle, Bumansa also retracted her wings and floated down from the sky.
Standing in the shade of the slanting sun, Bumantha pulled up her carrying basket and walked slowly to the front of Darcy, who was about to fall.
She lifted the cover from the basket in her hand, took out a piece of bread, put it into Darcy's roaring mouth, blocked the other's mouth, and was bitten off by the hungry and exhausted Darcy.
"I know, you put in a lot of effort." Seeing Darcy eating, Bumantha turned around and spoke softly at the moment when it finally quieted down.
"When I was in school, I heard everyone say that Darcy is a very hard-working senior. Niya also told me that she would learn from her senior and become a great person."
"Because of your existence, everyone believes that as long as you are diligent enough, even if your background is not good, you can step by step surpass those classmates with lofty backgrounds."
"Everyone admires you because you have done what we have always wanted to do, but couldn't."
"Watering talent with sweat to achieve the ultimate."
"I think, even me, I don't have the strong will of Senior Darcy to endure such a boring exercise and give up many other things." Bumansa said slowly, the voice was not loud, but Some knights on the hillside could hear it clearly.
"But ah, what is the standard for evaluating things?" Bumantha turned around, and Darcy finally calmed down a little, but the occasional heaving of his chest showed that he was still recovering.
"If it's by secular standards, then the senior is undoubtedly better than me. I'm just doing ordinary work in the countryside."
"If it's from the perspective of an extraordinary person, I should only have the advantage of talent to outperform the senior."
"But if it is based on the breadth and freedom of life, ease and happiness, I think I can still be slightly ahead of the seniors."

"Because of love, I did the work and things I liked, and made new discoveries in it, and then inspired me to do more things and explore more possibilities."
"A lot of this is mundane nonsense, but for me it's different, they're so fresh and different."
"The goal in the world is single and unified, so it is also destined to be narrow, just like 99% of people crowded into a narrow corner of 0.01% of the world, competing and tormenting each other, because they have been domesticated to only identify with these standards, and then Can't see anything else."
"Of course, these are not right or wrong, but their choices are different."
"However, Senior Darcy, what you hope for is destined to be achieved by only a few people. Why can't you accept the result of failure with peace of mind."
"Perhaps you are just a child and think that the world should be what you ideally look like, because I have worked hard to gain everything, even if others have sacrificed their lives for it, even if the laws of the world change, and the evolution of all situations does not Again."
"It's time to wake up, Senior Darcy."
After the voice fell, Bumansa walked away with a basket and gradually disappeared at the end of the road, and the direction leading to the village was closed again, covered by dense trees and shrubs.
The forest, adorned with seven-colored flowers, is lush and beautiful, like a fence, spreading from the hills to the distance on both sides, dividing the world into two parts that are never connected.
Although it is close at hand, the world behind the hills is like a distant ideal land, which can never be touched, making people sigh and stop.

Tertiary, 1706, the year of the ice wind.
In May, the rebellion in the southern border of the Canghong Empire expanded. General Bazel led a 340,000-strong army to the south, and in Yindian Province, Wu Yuling and the rebels fought decisively. The postscript is "Battle of Yinding".
In this battle, the famous general Bazel was killed, the army of the empire collapsed in the pursuit, and the prestige of the royal family further declined.
In June, the newly organized coalition of the empire began to gather and convene. This time the scale was far greater than the last time, and many nobles participated.
In July, the imperial coalition had not yet reached the front line, and bad news came from Titenia, and a coup d'état took place inside the imperial house again.
Elio Cang Jusserberg, the son of the former Crown Prince Ansroy, killed the false king Edron, the regent, and ascended the throne with the support of a group of nobles and officers. Two young emperors. (The first is the twin brothers and sisters Kingsley and Kinrosa, who ascended the throne at the age of 12 more than 700 years ago. At that time, it was still the era of the Green Kingdom.)
In August, Queen Lily fled to the north, and in the middle of the journey, under the cover of loyal knights, she changed direction and headed to the south. During this period, they were caught up by the Rose Knights several times, and each time they escaped their pursuit. In the end, the Rose Knights stopped in front of an unnamed village in the eastern border and were blocked by an unnamed peasant woman.
During the period, the powerful Knights of Roses defeated the woman alone, and General Darcy, who held the holy relic, could not win. In the end, he could only sigh and stop on the hill in front of the village.
After that, the new emperor recalled the Knights of the Roses, stating that as long as the queen swears to leave the Western Continent with her children and never set foot on the territory of the empire, she will no longer pursue her crimes.
In September, after the counter-insurgent coalition was stationed at the border for two months, it was finally disbanded due to internal disagreements. The eldest son of Griffin, Jellan, and the son of Raven, Elon, returned to their territories respectively.
At the end of October, an edict arrived in the south under the leadership of the Emperor's emissaries.
'Because of the despicable methods of the former pseudo-king, the most loyal Duke of the Red Dragon in the empire, a branch of the royal family, the Baska family fell, countless people of the empire died in the civil war, and many loyal and brave nobles died in the undeserved catastrophe. '
'Therefore—'
"The Duke of Red Dragon and the nobles of the rebellion in the Central and Southern Territories are pardoned for all crimes, and the Baska family is re-canonized as the guardian of the southern region, and the only blood descendant of the family is established, Miss Charanlot Baska is the new Duke of the Red Dragon. "
"After this order is promulgated, all imperial legions and soldiers stationed in the southern border shall owe their allegiance to the new guardian of the southern border, the Duchess of Charanlot or her designated person, and shall exempt all taxes paid to the royal family in the southern border for ten years thereafter, and The people of the southern border will be governed by the Duke of Charanlot, and the royal family will no longer assign any officials and nobles to interfere with the rule of the southern border within 20 years."
"This order was unanimously passed by the imperial parliament. The emperor promised everything in his edict and implemented it immediately. If anyone disobeys, he will be regarded as a traitor to the empire, and will be wanted and tried by the empire."
This winter, the empire that had been turbulent for several years finally ushered in precious peace. Perhaps the situation under the table has long been different, with different opinions, but in the end, everyone needs time to ease the situation.
The new emperor needs to stabilize the situation and gradually control the empire. The north needs the support of other realms to survive the cold disaster. The griffins in the west need to reconsider the situation. Get a precious respite and recuperation from the torments of war.
In this way, another year of winter festivals is slowly ushering in.
