Chapter 208 - 23: Salted Fish Port (4)_2
The entire Salted Fish Port was changing at a pace visible to the naked eye, and the greatest change was undoubtedly in people’s hearts.
"Holy Knight! Do you remember me? Absburg! Do you remember? We are very sorry, we just arrived now. We needed some time to settle our families, after all, there’s a high possibility of war here, and we couldn’t bring them along. But our oath is still valid!" shouted the leader of an army of a thousand men at Gray.
"I remember! Thank you all!" Bowing his head, Gray made a cross sign on his chest.
Shelley stood on the balcony, holding Gray’s hand, her eyes brimming with tears. She could hardly believe her eyes.
More people were still arriving continuously. In just a few days, the population of Salted Fish Port was even higher than before. Dean had to personally guard outside the city, waiting for people coming from all over. This was to prevent unnecessary chaos from them entering the city recklessly, and also to properly arrange their accommodation and reduce their worries. Some of those entering the city were originally residents of Salted Fish Port who had come back.
"On behalf of the Holy Knight, I thank you for coming. Salted Fish Port welcomes you. However, we are here to support the Holy Knight, not to cause him new troubles, nor to add new burdens to Salted Fish Port. I hope everyone understands this. Otherwise, our actions would be meaningless."
"Of course."
"We must live better than before. All bad incidents shouldn’t happen here. Each person should be kind and upright, and people should help each other. Otherwise, coming here would have no meaning. Do you understand? We can’t argue with them, so the best way is to prove with facts. This is a game with the Holy Spirit, and we must make the Holy Spirit hear our call."
"Understood! For the Holy Knight!"
"May the Holy Light be with you."
"May the Holy Light be with you!"
