Chapter 125 Heart Piercing Rose Knight
Before Truman won the 'Piercing Rose' Knight Medal, it seemed that everyone knew the news earlier than him.

On the morning of April 4th, before Truman went to the Jinding Palace for the semi-finals of the Lingwen Contest and received the medal, the landlord prepared breakfast very attentively, including a whole roast chicken. Truman was amazed at the After this abundance, the landlord expressed that this was a tribute to the knight.

Knights... are they okay?
Truman has recently come into contact with a lot of nobles from Ansa, and he doesn't have much thought about the knights who are the reserve of nobles. He just thinks that a knight's medal is insignificant compared with Habsburg.

However, there are no more than 1000 knights in the entire Ansa Republic, and there are still a large number of knights conferred by lords from various places. There are very few knight honors awarded by the king himself.

The grand occasion of awarding 10 knight medals at one time only appeared in the first and second Patriotic Wars.

After learning about the status of the "knight" honor in the Onsa Empire from the landlord, Truman realized that the king's reward this time was surprisingly generous.

In addition to honors, there are also tangible benefits. Although the king does not send money to knights, knight honors can reduce land taxes and commodity sales taxes.

There are too many merchants in Onsa who are very eager for the privileges of nobles, even a knight, such as the former Anton family.

If Anton is still alive...the Lingwen Contest is his best chance to change his destiny.

So, after Truman enjoyed the "Knight's Breakfast" provided by the landlord today, when he went out again, he saw many free carriages.

"Dear Mr. Truman, hello, I am Lu Sen, a coal merchant, may I have the honor to take you to the Golden Roof Palace? I see that you are still renting a house, so I have specially prepared a house in the southern district for you .”

"How can a house in the southern district be worthy of Mr. Knight? I have prepared a second floor for you in the central district. I am Shen Chengren, an import and export businessman."

"You must prefer the villa area in the east, which is very close to your work place. I am Wang Luyi, a timber merchant."

……

There must be at least ten small carriages crowded at the door.

In addition, there were a few reporters with cameras shooting white smoke at Truman.

Truman was so frightened by this posture that he shrank back directly.

Is it so exaggerated?

After thinking about it, he called Lilith, intending to remind Lilith to be careful.

But Lilith was even more helpless.

"Since yesterday, the person who wants to marry me has already stepped through the threshold of my house, not to mention this morning, I dare not go downstairs."

"Haha~" Truman smiled happily, it turned out that he was not the only one who was 'unlucky'.

"What are you laughing at?" Lilith snorted coldly, "My mother plans to marry me to a businessman who imports and exports medicinal materials, a wealthy businessman on the same level as Anton's father."

"You are now a knight, you are far more than an import and export medicine dealer, maybe you can win the championship and become a baroness."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lilith was a little anxious, "Since you can't go out, I'll pick you up and wait for me at home!"

10 minute later.

Relying on a pair of mechanical feet that can fly over eaves and walls, and a pair of robotic hands that can climb high and low, Lilith appears at the window of Truman's room like a witch from heaven, rescues Truman from the predicament, and the two rush to the Golden Roof Palace together.

On the way, the two also exchanged information about the king's surprisingly generous rewards.

From a commoner to a noble, it is a leap in class for Onsa. Although the status of a knight cannot be passed on, every additional knight will have an additional henry and a diner who will share the cake. Therefore, the king has always been very strict about granting the status of nobility. stingy.

Anton just wanted to be a nobleman and couldn't get it, so he took the risk and wanted to follow the path of the Extraordinary.

"The higher the reward, the more dangerous the subsequent translation work will be." Lilith said, "My Lady Empress thinks so too."

The Moon Night Knight also obtained the corresponding information from the Empress.

"You might as well quit."

"You might as well quit."

Truman and Lilith said the same thing, each fearing for the other's safety.

This tacit understanding is very interesting.

It also proved that neither wanted to quit.

……

Golden Palace.

Award ceremony.

Even though 10 spiritual experts lined up, the space in the palace in front of the throne was not cramped at all, and the smooth marble floor reflected the splendor of the king's insignia.

Coat of arms is a unique field of study. Every noble inherited by a family has its own coat of arms, from which the family history of the nobility can be deciphered.

The badge conferred by the king this time has the "Eagle of Ansa" as the main content, two sharp swords interlaced at the bottom, and the bottom is decorated with a heart-piercing rose.

That means that in the season when the piercing roses are in full bloom, the knight won this medal for the Spiritual Contest, and the knight's honor will become the king's sharp sword, helping the king fight on the battlefield.

The 10 spiritual experts have different identities, including experts from other countries, local nobles, the king's astrologer, the pope's red gloves, or the apprentice of the spiritual master, the assistant of the potion master, and of course one Ex-convicts now pardoned.

"Woo~"

Moonnight Knight burst into tears when the king personally wore the medal for him.

Charles Stewart looked at the strange-looking contestant in front of him, and saw the tears rolling down from his silver mask. He thought it was funny, so he laughed: "Mr. Moonlight Knight, I Now that you have lived up to your name and become a real knight, are you moved by it?"

"No, I'm crying for their fate." Moonlight Knight looked around at all the other contestants, "There is a story in our hometown, a mother saw a general sucking the poisonous pus from her son's wound, and cried, It's the same feeling I'm feeling right now..."

The king asked curiously, "What is the end of this story?"

"That son died fighting for the general." Moonlight Knight said, "If you get a reward that exceeds your limit, you have to pay the price with your life."

The king's expression changed, showing displeasure.

"My sons and daughters~" Moonlight Knight wept sadly at the other contestants, "Can you understand how Dad is feeling at this moment~"

The expressions of the other contestants became extremely ugly at this moment.

Several extraordinary people have already praised this guy named Moonnight Knight with various 'skills' in their hearts.

If this is a martial arts competition, there is already a common enemy and goal at this moment.

It's a pity that this is not a martial arts competition. Next, the 10 spiritual knights will fight side by side.

At this time, a clerk replaced the king to tell the next work.

"The translation work this time is very difficult." The clerk said, "You will see a whole copy of the 'Xuan Mine', please be careful of the pollution on it, it will be fatal."
