Henry II of France / 亨利二世

Henry II of France appears in 78.西方决斗史：出剑吧！为了荣誉！ in two related ways. First, his fatal tournament injury makes [[ChivalricTournamentCulture|chivalric tournament culture]] visibly dangerous even when combat is ceremonial, aristocratic, and spectacular. Second, the episode uses the 1547 duel he presided over as a hinge between formal judicial-style procedure and wider [[HonorDuelCulture|honor duel culture]].

The source’s Henry II is therefore a ruler whose presence does not fully contain combat. Court supervision, audience, oath, and ritual can make violence official, but the king’s hesitation to settle the matter also helps normalize the idea that honor must be fought through to the end.
