Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 3 Chapter 14: Fighting Beast (Part 1)

"Well, I promise you, Miss Elena." Justinian couldn't help thinking that the girl in front of him was a bit interesting. Although the girl in front of him was the daughter of Theodore, he didn't see anything from those clean and dust-free eyes. Of uncleanness.

"Thank you then, Lord Justinian. I want to be by my father's side, so goodbye!" With a mischievous smile on the girl's face, she pinched the skirt and said goodbye to Justinian, and then left first. After all, she has to return to her father as soon as possible.

At this moment, the envy in the venue was everywhere, and the two attendants were holding plates with gold coins and gave them to the dwarf comedy troupe who was in charge of the performance just now, "This is a gift for you, Lord Earl. Your performance is here today. Come here!" Ordered them to stop performing, and the servants immediately asked the theater troupe to move away. It seemed that there was something important.

   Such a grand reward, where did the actors of these troupes have seen them, and they hurriedly graciously held the curtain call for the reward.

I saw more than a dozen people who looked like servants quickly came forward to clean up a clearing. The nobles who feasted could not help wondering what was going on. I saw people put down their wine glasses and food and watched what happened before them. all.

  ……

   "Is there another new show?"

   "Is there anything magical, Lord Earl, that opens our eyes?"

  ……

   The nobles couldn't help whispering excitedly as they watched the scene in front of them.

Everyone is very curious about the count of Agrinion who barely leaves his house. He fought with Mikhail for Epirus and failed and fell here. But in the eyes of people, he seems to have eternal Inexhaustible wealth, just so even Mikhail has been in Rusnina without touching him. Therefore, there are always nobles who try to visit him, but in the end they return without success, and at such an important banquet, they are all expecting to see what surprises this mysterious Lord Lord will give them. .

   Everyone is looking forward to what will happen next.

I saw a few more servants walked into the corridor cubicle, and what was disturbed, only to hear squeaks and squeaks, people looked for reputation to go to an iron gate slowly rising, a huge cart Slowly walked away, and everyone who looked at a giant beast in that huge cage was shocked.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. This is today's finale show, but I also invite you to walk to the racecourse to watch it. It won't take too long!" I saw Theodore walked slowly. He came out and said, leaning on the iron cage and didn't care about the giant beast beside him.

   But the others almost couldn't stand when they looked at the behemoth.

   "That...that is..." The nobles trembled. This was the first time they had seen this kind of existence.

   I saw a huge war elephant in the cage, covered with thick scales and armor, almost armed to the teeth, I am afraid that no good warrior on the battlefield will be able to defeat it.

"It turned out to be this kind of thing, where did he get it?" Justinian also found it too incredible. Elephants have indeed been thrown into the battlefield for a long time, and they are generally unfamiliar with this kind of thing. The behemoth’s army is simply seeking a dead end to deal with them, but the war elephants are generally used more by Eastern countries. What is the intention of Theodore to bring out this kind of thing on the festival?

Then, Earl Theodor finally walked out of the chair gracefully, welcoming the guests of the entire banquet with thunderous cheers, and besides this man, whether it was his wife Ajelena or his daughter Elena, it was glorious. The eye-catching attracted many eyes.

   "Then next, please move forward to the racecourse!"

   Then Theodore’s words brought the atmosphere of the entire banquet to the top. People marveled at the burly body of the giant elephant and looked forward to the exciting performance of the fighting beast.

  ……

  ……

  ……

   The huge racecourse of Agrinon, this luxurious place funded by Theodore is already full of people.

   At the end of the St. Valentine's Day Mass, people learned that Earl Theodor was about to hold a grand beast race at the racecourse, and people immediately crowded in to find out.

   When people saw the appearance of Earl Theodore, a burst of boiling shouts rang throughout the racecourse.

"It seems that it is not only a nobleman, but this man's reputation among common people is also the same!" Justinian muttered to himself. He and other nobles went to a special seat and sat down just now. An old voice of dissatisfaction came from the side.

   "This is simply the ugly legacy of the barbaric era of pagans. His Royal Highness allowed this kind of thing to exist, so that people and wild beasts would fight each other, what a decent way."

The old and frail priest saw the people's enthusiasm for the Colosseum below, and couldn't help shaking his head. His face was obviously extremely dissatisfied. The tradition of fighting beasts has been hundreds or even thousands of years. Things before. It’s just that they were basically replaced by horse racing ~ www.readwn.com~ After the Christian era, large and small colosseums have basically been changed into racetracks, and this is civilized in the eyes of the priests. It's a pity that people's blood has always been hidden in the factors that love violence and killing, so this kind of retro beast show in Agrinion has won most of the love.

   Just a moment ago, the participating gladiators had killed several ferocious beasts to arouse everyone's applause, but it was obvious that the old priest hated this **** performance very much.

At this time Justinian also recognized the old man sitting next to him. The other party was Polioctus, the head of Agrinon at the previous Mass. He was also asked to come here, even though he The traditional figure of the church disliked this activity very much.

It just so happened that he also noticed the young man next to him, and said: "If the old man guessed correctly, you are the young man Justinian in Ilovan Castle!" He has achieved great military exploits in Croatia. Let Justinian's original name become well-known, although he has not received direct recognition, but because of his young age, many people know his name.

  Polyoktus’ words immediately attracted the attention of other nobles, and many people started talking in whispers.

  ……

   "Is that the kid?"

   "It's true that such a young man brought so little people to deal with pirates."

   "No wonder you can be invited here, it seems that the rumors are true."

  ……

Looking at this scene, Justinian couldn’t help being speechless. He didn’t want to attract others’ attention too quickly, but at this time he could only greet the old patriarch with a bit of embarrassment: “It’s nice to meet you, Bo Master Leoctos."
