Durin's Diary

Chapter 660 Goodbye
George's expression was complicated.

First of all, Lord Durin talked with Old Broken Bones for almost half an hour, which was very abnormal.

Secondly, it is normal for Lao Suigu to speak human language, but how come he can also speak Ancient Era language and Chang Tang language?

Finally, when the Nameless Man arrived and when Old Boneshard, Lord Wuerl, and Lord Durin toasted together, George didn't know what to say.

If this kind of thing were told to others, no one would believe it. Even if he told it to others, I'm afraid no one would believe it. It might even bring him a fatal disaster - some people definitely don't like people who gossip.

He thought so and agreed with it deeply.

Until Lord Durin returned to the city wall again.

Also returning was Lord Ul-Arek. This heroic spirit seemed to have a vacation. He followed Lord Durin with a smile, greeting the veterans from time to time.

Most of those veterans had seen this Excellency when they were young, and they all knelt on one knee on both sides.

Lord Durin smiled and stepped aside, while Lord Wuerl stepped forward and helped the old soldiers up one by one.

Until he helped up a young paladin: "You are..."

"I am your grandson, grandpa." The young paladin choked up when he said this.

Lord Wuer was silent for a while, and finally showed a knowing smile: "You are Wusa's child. When grandpa left, he was still a snotty-nosed child. How is he?"

"My uncle and father are all in the Great Wasteland. My eldest brother and father are now serving together in the 3rd Company of Dismounted Paladins, and I have come to the Great Woodland." The young man became increasingly emotional as he spoke, until finally, he shed tears. "I have never seen you before. There are only portraits at home, and you look haggard in them."

"Because all mortals must die, silly child, I, your grandpa, have been running for this land for a hundred years. Death is just the longest rest." The old man stroked the young man's back and looked at Du Lin.

Du Lin smiled and took out cups, and each veteran had a share.

Then there is the red wine, which comes from the farms in the wilderness and is made from grapes grown on the sunny slopes. It is a fine wine that everyone praises.

After filling the glass for each veteran, Du Lin looked at George. The commander finally came over and took the full glass of wine somewhat flattered.

Lord Wuer drank the wine, put down the glass, hugged the young paladin again, and looked at the veterans: "I am going back."

At this moment, the wasteland outside the city has become green and auspicious beasts are walking on the earth.

Lord Ur patted the young man on the back and then stepped before Durin. "If it weren't for the oath I swore to the gods, Old Bonesplitter could have been a worthy opponent. He and I were both close friends and mortal adversaries. For years, we'd both won and lost on the battlefield. Sadly, I'm nearing the end of my life, and can no longer fight him to the death. Young Lord, your oath is so beautiful. I sincerely hope you can fulfill it."

"I will do my best, but such an oath will make me many enemies. Even some of your descendants may regard me as an adversary. But I am fearless. If you want to kill me, then I will kill you. I am fighting against all the injustices in this land."

After saying that, Du Lin stretched out his hand.

Lord Wuer smiled and extended his hand to shake Dulin's. "I believe my descendants will understand your difficulties. If they find it difficult to comprehend, please do not be lenient. Your Highness, I understand your philosophy. I also understand that today's sacrifice is for a better future tomorrow... So, do not hesitate, do not let your sacrifice be in vain, and do not bring shame to a bright future."

"I know. Thank you for your understanding," Du Lin said, and watched the old man walk to the end of the infinite wilderness. There, many people stood there, all wearing the battle robes of the Paladins, some modern, some recent, and some from the old times that had only been seen in scrolls.

Some of them were recognized, but many more remained unknown.

But everyone knows that every paladin who can enter the Infinite Wilderness is a noble and flawless person.

It was not until the infinite wilderness dissipated that Du Lin said goodbye to George.

This Sidney nobleman seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Du Lin certainly understood what he wanted to say, but unfortunately, they had the same ideas but different opinions. What he wanted to say was exactly what Du Lin didn't want to tell him.

………………

It was already the next day when Alessandro heard the story of Dulin outside Orekhov.

Upon hearing that Nameless, Old Bonebreaker, Durin, and Ur-Arek had gathered, the old duke could only sigh - he had become numb to how powerful his grandson-in-law was.

But this time, Durin still gave the old man enough shock - a heroic spirit, a god, an alien among the green-skinned orcs, and Durin himself. In the eyes of many people, these four people are obviously unrelated.

But just yesterday, they gathered together outside the city of Orekhov and had a drink together. I heard that the wine was paid for by the kid Dulin, and Old Broken Bones, Anonymous and Ur all drank it.

The gods took the lead in giving Du Lin face.

If this favor was given to the children of the Alessandro family, then old Alessandro would even dare to make some efforts to see if his children could obtain more land in the north and become the Grand Duke.

Unfortunately, it wasn't his child.

Thinking of this, he felt very melancholy. But after the melancholy, he felt that it was a good thing that his granddaughter Lide could find such a good husband. The thing he couldn't let go of most in his life was Lide.

Who would have thought that she would have such a good opportunity to meet a kid like Du Lin. No matter what, this young man would help her.

It also helped him relieve his worries.

Thinking of this, Alessandro noticed old Ish - this little old man never showed his emotions, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Out of curiosity, he sat down next to him and said, "Du Lin is truly remarkable. Who would have thought he could drink with the gods? This is an opportunity that others would never be able to obtain."

"I'm afraid he will overstep his authority." Facing Alessandro's sigh, Old Ish replied somewhat helplessly.

"I believe that this kid Dulin won't do anything wrong." Alessandro was not worried about this.

Being able to drink with gods, even among them there is a green-skinned orc named Old Bonesbone, doesn't this also prove one thing - this Old Bonesbone is really a green-skinned orc who understands people's hearts as the rumors say.

So what if he is an enemy?
