113. Funeral (5)

Chapter 113

Verne followed the crowd slowly out of Bambi City.

Although the beast tide has passed for several days, the battlefield has been cleaned up.

But the bumpy land and mottled city walls outside the city are still silently describing the difficulty of that battle.

Today, he is attending a funeral with the townspeople of Bambi City.

A funeral hosted by the third prince himself for those who died in the battle of the beast tide.

Among them was Verne’s fellow adventurer.

Verne looked complicated.

His Royal Highness the Third Prince had mentioned before that he would hold a funeral for his comrade after the war. Verne did not take it seriously, but he did not expect His Royal Highness to do it.

The funeral was held in a small open space east of the city.

In the distance, Verne could see graves one by one.

Each tomb is surrounded by white stones, and in front of the tomb stands a pure white stone tablet.

Verne looked back thoughtfully, and unexpectedly found that from the perspective of the tombs, the city gate of Bambi City could just be seen clearly.

“His Royal Highness the third prince wants these people who died to protect the city of Bambi to see with their own eyes how the city of Bambi becomes prosperous day by day?”

Verne thought to himself.

Soon, Verne followed the crowd to the edge of the tomb.

He saw at a glance the grave of his dead companion.

clean, neat, beautiful…

At this moment, Verne even envied the companion lying on the ground.

The funeral was a ceremony Verne had only heard of before, and it was said that only after the death of certain great nobles or members of the royal family, their relatives and families would hold them for them.

Many people gathered around the cemetery, played mourning music, and expressed their deep sorrow and longing for the deceased.

As an adventurer who has been running around in the wild all the year round, Verne once imagined his own death.

He may die under the minions of a powerful beast, or be injured and become ill, die on the way to healing, or be under the sword of other adventurers, or he may live his adventure life safely and peacefully, and finally be alone. to die in some tavern…

Both are possible.

If you are lucky, you will have a whole corpse, but if you are unlucky, you won’t be able to pick up a piece of clothing.

The best situation is to let his companions bury him in a random place. After many years, a dense grass may grow there.

And what about your partner?

Although dead, there are at least so many people in mourning for him.

“Third, you are more beautiful when you are dead than when you were alive.”

Verne whispered something to his deceased companion in his heart.

The funeral begins, Verne hears a low cry, and most of them are silent.

His Royal Highness the third prince began to speak, the words were very simple, and Verne remembered every word clearly.

The most impressive sentence is: “…the sacrifices made to protect loved ones, companions and innocents will always be remembered by all of us.

Well said.

Verne seemed to have figured out a lot at once.

He turned around and handed his share of the gold coins to several of his companions.

The companion looked at him with amazement and doubt.

Verne said to them plainly but affirmatively: “I have decided, I will no longer be a mercenary, and I do not want to take risks. I plan to stay in Bambi City, always…”

Hendrick stood not far from the cemetery, his eyes complicated.

He looked at the specially built tombs and the people who attended the funeral, and suddenly said to Falls: “Every year in the royal capital, many civilians die because of hunger, cold, and disease.

Most of these dead civilians will be randomly abandoned on the road, and then collected by the corpse collectors in the capital, and buried in the wild.

The rest of the corpses will be carried by their relatives to a random place outside the city to be dug a pit and buried.

In either case, no one knows if they were eaten by wild jackals.

Even if you know, no one will pay attention to it, no one will be sad.

If you have that skill, you might as well find a way to ask for more bread to fill your stomach…”

“These people are so lucky to have a decent funeral after their death, so many people weep and mourn for them, and even a third prince of the kingdom addresses them personally..”

“Oh, by the way, you said before that His Royal Highness the Third Prince also distributed these dead people what kind of money?

Fowles replied, “It’s a pension. Thirty gold coins each.”

“God…”

Hendrick pretended to exaggerate and sighed, “Thirty gold coins… If it is placed in the capital, even if it is three gold coins, those commoners will beg their relatives to die… Hehe …”

Hendrick laughed a few times, but there was no smile on his face, but a deeper and more complicated look.

“…” Now I finally know why these people are willing to fight to the death for His Royal Highness the Third Prince, regard His Royal Highness the Third Prince as their belief, and even sacrifice their own lives..”

Hendrick sighed deeply.

Fowles continued for him with the remaining half of the sentence he had not said.

“Because His Royal Highness the Third Prince made them feel like they were living as individuals.

Hendrick nodded and said, “I came to Bambi City this time, which really opened my eyes… I will relay everything here to His Majesty Charles.

I’m going back to the capital now…”

Fors was taken aback, “Lord Hendrick, won’t you say goodbye to His Royal Highness the Third Prince?”

Hendrick smiled and replied: “I have already said goodbye. Fowles, I hope the next time we meet will be in the capital.

After speaking, Hendrick turned and walked away.

The coachman, Luke, had his carriage ready and waiting for him.

(Good money) Hendrick took a potion out of his pocket as he walked.

This was given to him by His Royal Highness the Third Prince before he left. He said that it could treat most intractable diseases, and it was also effective for poisoning. It might be helpful to Charles III’s condition.

“Damn..”

Hendrick muttered in a low voice, looked at the potion in his hand and said to himself: “If Your Majesty knew that I had even told a lie about his critical illness, His Royal Highness the Third Prince would still refuse to go back, and only brought back a potion, he would Won’t kick my ass so hard….

No, everything about His Royal Highness the Third Prince and Bambi City is enough to shock and comfort His Majesty, he shouldn’t care about being angry…”

After the funeral, Joshua and his men returned to the main mansion of the city.

The beast tide has brought many scars to Bambi City, but what it has left is also exaggerated.

The wealth value on the Joshua system panel has climbed to seven figures!
