This knight is too perfect

Chapter 22 Morning Star Breathing Method - Black Iron
Inside the hut at the training ground.

Rhine believed that Baron Angelo was the best choice to solve his slavery status.

This requires mentioning the special national conditions of the Principality of Morton.

Duchy, as the name suggests, is a country established by a duke of a kingdom after its independence.

The Duke who established the 'Principality of Morton' was the Duke of Morton from the 'Kingdom of Akkad'.

Nicknamed... Duke of Rock.

Due to the great famine that swept across the entire "Three Islands of Akkad" a hundred years ago, coupled with the excessive debauchery of the powerful people in "Akkad" at that time.

As a result, the 'Dukedom of Morton', which was facing a severe famine at the time, was unable to obtain relief from the kingdom.

They were even forced to contribute their limited food and wealth to support the extravagant lifestyle of the Akkadian nobles.

Against this backdrop, Duke Morton led the knights in his territory and launched an independence war in which the lower classes rebelled against the upper classes.

After a fifteen-year-long "War of Independence", the Duchy of Morton finally succeeded in gaining independence and was renamed the "Principality of Morton".

This is why the 'Principality of Morton' is called a 'country built on knights'.

Because from a historical perspective, the establishment of the Principality of Morton is indeed closely related to the group of knights who rebelled against the Akkadian Kingdom.

However, after its independence, the Principality of Morton gained support from other countries outside the "Three Islands of Akkad", forming a true nation in the legal sense.

But the royal family of the Kingdom of Akkad was concerned about the Principality of Morton, a land that was split from their own country.

But he never gave up the idea of ​​taking it back and had been planning it secretly.

Except for the obvious "external threat" of the "Akkadian Kingdom".

At this time, the Principality of Morton still had very serious "internal troubles".

Because with the gradual aging of Duke Morton and the retirement of the older generation of knights.

Today, the Principality of Morton has not only become visibly weaker.

The internal unity is far less than it was a hundred years ago.

The once invincible kingdom of knights has now become visibly decayed, and exudes the stench of the end of a dynasty.

And the more this situation is, the more internal and external troubles there are.

The nobles in the Principality of Morton had to use iron-blooded tactics to stabilize their respective territories and prevent any opposition voices from emerging.

One manifestation of this is that except for a small number of people with special identities.

Most of the remaining Morton people want to travel far away.

They all need to be 'certified' by their local town hall.

If the city hall thinks there is something wrong with you and does not give you a certificate, you will not be allowed to go anywhere.

And if you dare to go to other territories without proof.

Then what you will face will be the full-scale pursuit by the officials of the entire Morton Kingdom.

On this point, all the lords in the Principality of Morton maintained a high degree of tacit understanding.

The first step to obtain "proof" is to have a "legal identity" in the Principality of Morton.

Rhine was born in a small village in the Emerald Territory of the Principality of Morton.

But his village had not only been completely destroyed by the "horse thieves".

The information of all residents in the village was completely destroyed in the fire.

Therefore, Rhine is now an "illegal household" with no identity.

He can now use many means to find a way to prove his former identity as a "Morton citizen" and thus get rid of his status as a slave.

For example, he could go to the town hall closest to the former village, where there should be backup information of his identity.

But this is based on the fact that Rhine can now leave the castle freely, and no one stops him, an "illegal resident", on the way to the Emerald Territory.

But this is undoubtedly unrealistic for Rhine today.

Therefore, under the existing conditions, allowing Baron Angelo to free him from slavery is undoubtedly the most effective method.

Besides, even if this path fails, Rhine still has another choice... Rhine held the 'Silver Moon Gold Coin' in his hand and looked at the complex texture on it carefully.

"The value of a silver moon gold coin cannot exceed the requirement. I think it should not be difficult to use it to exchange for freedom. I just hope that things don't come to this."

Thinking of this, Rhine put away the Silver Moon Gold Coin.

After all, if this Silver Moon Gold Coin is used well, it will definitely bring him unexpected results.

Therefore, it must not be wasted easily.

After making sure that Fergus was fine at the moment, Rhine got up and left the cabin, going to the open space outside the training ground alone.

In the 'parchment' given to him by Fergus, there was not only the Black Iron promotion path of 'Path of Destiny', but also some common knowledge of the extraordinary world.

It also includes a 'Destiny Essence Extraction Ceremony' that matches the 'Path to Destiny'.

And if we use another word to describe this 'source extraction ritual'.

That's what's called... 'Knight's Breathing'.

Rhine now wants to test the effectiveness of this breathing method.

Let's see if he can use this 'breathing method' to extract the 'source of destiny' between heaven and earth without taking up the post of 'Knight of Destiny'.

Although Rhine thought there should be no problem.

But it is better to test the specific effect yourself.

In the empty training ground, Rhine came to the center of the training ground and began to slowly adjust his breathing rhythm according to the contents described on the "parchment".

This set of knight breathing method originated from the "Parchment Scroll", and its name is...Morning Star.

Different from the 'unknown breathing method' that Rhine 'saw' from Fergus.

This Morning Star Breathing Technique is not only more complicated, but also requires the Source of Destiny to perform.

The requirements are very strict.

Under the night sky, standing in the center of the training ground, Rhine began to slowly adjust his breathing rhythm.

As his breathing became more regular, his body was gradually covered with a layer of silvery-white starlight.

After an unknown amount of time, Rhine suddenly opened his eyes.

Then he drew out the iron training sword from his waist and slashed it fiercely towards the open space next to him.

This sword was not only fast, but also so powerful that it even brought with it a bit of gust of wind.

It looked like it was almost as powerful as a full-strength sword strike from an adult.

Looking at the power of this sword, Rhine nodded secretly.

"As expected, the basis of the breathing method lies in the essence, so as long as you have the essence of destiny, even if you are not a knight of destiny, you can still use the corresponding breathing method."

"No wonder Lord Fergus said before that even if I practiced swordplay for a lifetime, I would never become a true knight."

'Essence, extraordinary abilities, and Knight Breathing Technique. Even if an ordinary person without these practices for a lifetime, it would be difficult for him to reach the level of a Black Iron Knight who has just entered the extraordinary realm.'

'Not to mention that the Black Iron Rank is just a basic starting point for Extraordinary People.'

"So, the end point of an ordinary person's life-long struggle is no match for the starting point of a Beyonder..."

After sighing, Rhine began to try hard to remember the feeling at that moment, to remember that special 'rhythm of fate'.

Because only by turning this feeling into instinct can he use it the first time he needs it in the future.
