Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds
Chapter 225 - 225 Big Gold Hair and Little Shorty225 Big Gold Hair and Little Shorty
On the fifth day after the Battle of Valentine, the sky was clear. White clouds were dispersed by the mages. The sky was blue and endless. Today had to be a sunny day.
Due to the instructions of His Highness Kang De, the interim government of Valentine bought a large amount of land to centralize the bones of the people who had died in the battle of Valentine. This huge cemetery centered on the family cemetery of the Valentine family and was reopened and integrated as a public cemetery to commemorate the people who had died in this battle.
Also following Prince Kang De’s instructions, the Valentine family cemetery was renamed Valentine National Cemetery.
These two Valentines originally had different meanings.
However, the sacrifice and dedication of Nick Valentine, Preston Valentine, and the others combined the two names again. From now on, this name would have a new spirit.
Today was the inauguration ceremony of the cemetery, and it was only the beginning.
Burying the deceased was a long-term job. The remains of the deceased would be solemnly and orderly buried.
Be it nobles, warriors, or commoners, brave or weak, they would be buried here as a whole as Valentines. They would be treated equally and rest together.
This was also Kang De’s intention.
The families and clansmen of the soldiers, young soldiers, private soldiers of the nobles, and even the recruitment troops would receive generous compensation for all the brave people who fought and died. This was the meaning of the question, but to this city, the deaths that happened in those days were a common tragedy, so there was no need to distinguish them so clearly.
If Nick was in heaven, he would definitely agree to do this.
Therefore, this order was unimpeded.
Just as Hong San had said, the current Kang De was already like a god in Valentine. He even had prestige and appeal that surpassed Grand Duke Goethe. No one would go against him on this problem.
At the same time, this ritual had another meaning.
Kang De would attend the ceremony and make a speech.
This was the first time he had appeared in front of the public after the battle of Valentine.
Everyone knew that this speech would transmit the views and thoughts of this Cathayan to the outside world. It would most directly reflect the political preferences and philosophy of this new star of the world. Not only would this affect the direction of this war, but it would even have a profound impact on the future situation of the world.
A human nuclear bomb was terrifying.
The people with their own plans clearly recognized all of this.
Therefore, after Hong San made a statement on behalf of the interim government of Valentine, all kinds of information transmission methods spread out as quickly as possible. The representatives and envoys of the various factions rushed to Valentine. All kinds of faces began to appear near the city. There were spies everywhere and the undercurrent was surging. As for the nobles and socialites of the surrounding cities, they brought their families and came out in full strength. The noble big shots did not even mind setting up camp outside the city.
Although the war was still not over, Valentine had undoubtedly become the safest place in the entire Goethe.
Compared to comfort, they were more concerned about Kang De’s first appearance and smelled an opportunity to determine what they and their family could obtain and do.
Early this morning, before even dawn, many people woke up and quietly set off for the cemetery to mourn and pray in the most respectful and pious manner, although most of them were foreigners.
Opportunities belonged to ambitious people. Being late was the privilege of a superior.
It was not until dawn that Kang De woke up on time. He sat up and stretched. He turned around and looked at the black cloak hanging on the hanger.
Funeral clothes. Goethe wore black and Cathay wore white. It was similar to Earth. When in Rome, one did as the Romans did. Of course, they wore black.
However, out of nationalism, Kang De did not want to wear a suit on such an occasion. After all, this was his first time appearing in front of the world, but he did not really want to wear the traditional mourning clothes of Goethe, because he did not want to play the trick of “we’re all Goethe people today”, so he took out this cloak from home.
It was not ancient clothes, but the so-called Hanfu. Back then, Old Wang was addicted to the ancient style for a period of time and learned sewing from Kang De’s mother. Then, she bought cloth herself and used various historical materials and fantasy atlases to make two sets of clothes intermittently for a few months.
She wore one set of female clothes herself and gave the other set of male clothes to Kang De as a gift. It was very comfortable to wear and looked very good, but daily activities were actually very inconvenient when wearing it. It was very nightmarish to go to the toilet or walk down the stairs to eat outside.
Later on, it was completely forgotten.
This was because they had once gone to an anime convention wearing that outfit. In the end, the girl encountered the ‘Hanfu police’. A few women surrounded Old Wang and sized her up from head to toe with scrutinizing and disdainful expressions. Moreover, they said something that no one could understand. They criticized every aspect of her clothing from head to toe.
What kind of heroine was Old Wang? At first, she explained and listened politely. Later on, she shouted the phrase “get lost” in a loud voice. Therefore, the mockery turned into a scolding battle and she even wanted to fight.
At that time, Kang De had just returned from another area. Seeing this, he stood in front of Old Wang and grabbed the neck of the fiercest and most unrestrained woman who reached out to pull Xiaoman’s clothes, throwing her to the ground.
After that, it was a pile of trivial matters. He called the police and recorded a statement. Kang De and Xiaoman sat at the police station without any resistance. They allowed the other party to cry, roar, and shout threats. They did not move. They did not admit their mistake, apologize, compensate, or reconcile. If they were detained, so be it. If they had a demerit, so be it. If they informed their parents, they would inform their parents. If they told the school, they would inform the school. They would deal with the police as they pleased.
Later on, Xiaoman’s father rushed over. After all, he was a decent person in society. He was not unkind to the rich, nor did he bully others. He definitely did not do anything illegal. He only brought five top litigators from the company’s legal department and lined them up. He gently explained some legal knowledge and principles of litigation and ended this matter in a while. However, the principle of handling it was the same as Xiaoman’s—the person who started it first was despicable and would definitely not be compensated with a single cent.
This matter did not affect Xiaoman much. On the way back, she only smiled and complained about Kang De’s rudeness in throwing women—you can’t find a girlfriend with such violence.
However, from then on, Xiaoman did not wear that dress anymore and quickly found a new interest.
Therefore, Kang De put it aside.
Unexpectedly, it was actually useful now… and on such an occasion.
When Old Wang made this dress back then, she did not expect him to do such a thing to it.
Kang De took the cloak in his hand and touched the soft cloth, so he thought of his childhood sweetheart’s eyes and smiled. When was the last time they met? He had not gone back for a long time.
The last time he returned, he was a lunatic who had almost razed a town to the ground.
If he returned this time, he would become a war hero and a peerless ferocious man.
Then… what about next time?
Kang De slowly exhaled.
He suppressed his complicated and chaotic emotions and began to change into this set of clothes.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and a voice sounded, “Kang De! I heard you woke up!”
Kang De had just put it on when he was shocked. “Hey…”
“What’s wrong?”
The gorilla walked in as if nothing had happened. “It’s not like I haven’t seen it before.”
Kang De said helplessly, “It’s different now.”
After the gorilla transformed into a human, her short hair was as brilliant as flames. She was handsome and beautiful, and it was valiant and dignified. She was half a head taller than Kang De, and her figure was even more explosive. Wherever the golden eyes swept, it made the souls of those looking at her tremble. The bloodline suppression effect of the magical animals on ordinary living beings seemed to be effective on humans… However, Kang De was still an exception.
In all senses, the gorilla had completely changed. However, the only thing that did not change was her attitude and way of interacting with Kang De.
She came to Kang De’s side and relaxed her arms slightly. She hugged him and intimately rubbed his cheek. Now that the gorilla was extremely strong, even Kang De could not struggle free, “It’s indeed different. Now that my body has become smaller and I’ve transformed into a human, I can sleep with Kang De. Why not?”
Kang De could not break free and said helplessly, “It’s precisely because of this that we can’t sleep together. Don’t pout. This is respect. I’m respecting you.”
“I don’t understand.”
The gorilla turned to look at Kang De’s face and smiled brightly, “But I can tell that you’re doing this for my own good, so I’m indeed happy. You’re the best.”
As Kang De smiled, he felt the shocking touch of the gorilla’s entire body.
Ah, humans were really hypocritical and sad creatures—he sighed.
Immediately after, the gorilla asked, “Kang De doesn’t sleep with Little Shorty either. Is that also respecting her?”
Little Shorty… Alright, it should be Leona.
Kang De said with a subtle expression, “Why should I sleep with Leona…”
The gorilla said matter-of-factly, “But she seems to want to sleep with you very much.”
“Don’t talk nonsense and ruin her reputation. Her brother is here.”
Kang De hurriedly interrupted her. Yesterday, Leona’s eldest brother, the first heir of the Vidal Chamber of Commerce, had crossed the Empire’s border and come to Valentine. After experiencing the flames of war and even death threats, she should have been very happy to see her family again. However, when Leona saw her brother, she was shocked and furious and even lost her temper.
Kang De could roughly guess what was going on.
Just think about it, those nobles and businessmen who brought women to Valentine had a specific agenda…
Perhaps that big brother did not have this intention and was only building this relationship from the perspective of a businessman. It was good to get familiar with him… However, girls in love were unreasonable.
When the gorilla heard this, she did not mention Leona.
However, she immediately asked, “What about Big Gold Hair? Does Kang De want to sleep with her?”
—Big Gold Hair? Was there such an animal on the island? Though there were a few super wretched hyenas…
Kang De was at first puzzled, but when he saw the gorilla’s serious gaze and unconcealed hostility, he instantly understood who she was referring to.
Oh, it was Tina!
Back on the Holy Seal Islands, the gorilla was indeed filled with hostility towards Tina… or rather, jealousy.
This golden hair was an appropriate nickname. After all, Tina’s blond hair was very, very beautiful. It was really like gold, refracting the brilliance of the sun. Moreover, she was very big…
Wait.
Did the big in ‘Big Gold Hair’ refer to this?
Then Leona was Little Shorty, shorty was her height and little meant…
Before Kang De could cry for the silver-haired girl, he felt a pain on his cheek. The gorilla freed her hands, grabbed his face, and gently pulled him out, her gaze judgmental.
“Why isn’t Kang De speaking?”
She asked gently, “I’ve always forgotten to ask. When I was looking for you, I heard Big Gold Hair say that you’re her husband. This should be fake, right?”
