This knight is too perfect

Chapter 26: Relics of the Past
"Well, old fellow, do you think this kid can make it?"

Ron looked at Rhine, who closed his eyes after placing his hand on the 'Sword in the Stone', as if he was in some special meditation, and curiously nudged Fergus next to him with his elbow.

Fergus glanced at Ron, then said unhappily, "The thing is yours, and you ask me? Why don't you ask me if I know what color underwear you are wearing today?"

Ron first looked down at his extremely tight pants, then looked up at Fergus in shock and said in astonishment, "No, you know this?"

"I know you!"

Fergus roared, spitting all over Ron's face.

It was obvious that he didn't know what color underwear Ron was wearing today, and he didn't want to know!

After all, who in their right mind would want to know this kind of thing?

Ron wiped the saliva off his face and said speechlessly, "If you don't know, then you don't know. Why are you so angry?"

Hearing this, Fergus secretly clenched his fists and almost broke his back teeth.

Fortunately, years of "witch's curse" have trained Fergus to have a good ability to adjust his mentality.

He finally suppressed the urge to beat Ron up, and said in the calmest tone possible: "Your sword is a relic from the old days, and I think you know the meaning of the word 'old days' better than I do."

"That was a product from the last era, or even longer ago."

"Do you think that I, an ordinary Black Iron Knight of the Church, am qualified to have access to forbidden knowledge about the old days?"

"Although I don't know where you got this sword from, since you said it was a weapon exclusively for the Destiny-side Beyonders, it means you must have grasped some clues."

"Although Rhine is a Destiny Master Beyonder, his current situation seems to be a little different from what I originally thought, because I sensed the essence of 'Netherworld' in him, which is not the essence that a pure Destiny Knight should have."

"So I'm not sure he can pull out the sword."

"So, next time, Ron, if you have questions that are so stupid that the answers can be known at a glance, please don't ask them again."

"Because that would not only make you look stupid, but it would also make me look stupid for having a friend like you, understand?"

Hearing this, Ron immediately chose to ignore the part that humiliated him and directly grasped the main point.

"So you don't know anything about the old days? Then why don't you tell me earlier? If you tell me earlier, I won't ask you."

"..."

Fergus took a deep breath and secretly comforted himself that there was no need to get angry with a simple-minded and strong-limbed blacksmith from Furnace City.

Because... it's not worth it!!!

After all, these guys have muscles all over their heads, so why make it difficult for them to think about such complicated problems?
At this time, Ron was sure that Fergus really didn't seem to know much about the secrets of the past.

He immediately looked at Rhine, who was holding the sword in the stone motionlessly, and said with expectation: "Can the old day, which symbolizes the fate of the past, be pulled out by the young knight, who symbolizes the fate of the present?"

“This is a really curious question…”

Just as Fergus and Ron were watching Rhine's "sword drawing ceremony".

At this moment, Rhine's consciousness had already fallen into a certain illusory space.

In this space, Rhine began to witness the rise and fall of an empire from a God's perspective.

The story begins in a small village.

Next to this small village, there is a black dragon as huge as a mountain.

Perhaps it was a coincidence of fate that the black dragon accidentally rescued a girl from a small village at the foot of the mountain while out one day and brought her back to the dragon's nest.

The girl was very afraid of the black dragon at first, but after spending a long time with it, she found that the black dragon seemed to simply disdain to eat a tiny human like her.

So the girl cleverly took advantage of this. In the following days, she tried to please the black dragon while studying the books that were randomly discarded on the ground in the dragon's nest.

However, because she couldn't understand the words in the books, the girl's learning process was extremely difficult every time.

Perhaps he found the girl's behavior very interesting, or perhaps the girl's previous flattery worked.

The black dragon, who had been too lazy to care about her, suddenly had an idea one day and gave the girl the ability to understand these books in a special way.

After acquiring this ability, the girl began to read all the books she could get her hands on in the Dragon's Nest day and night.

Gradually, I was attracted by the contents of these books and began to try to realize what was recorded in these books.

One day, after many failures, the girl actually used the materials in the dragon's nest that the black dragon despised to mix a special potion.

Looking at the pot of potion, the girl finally took a risk and took a sip.

And from this moment on, the girl's ordinary life changed.

Because the original witch was born at this moment.

For a long time afterwards, the girl became familiar with the power that did not belong to her.

After that, with the black dragon's tacit approval, he began to more boldly use various things in the dragon's nest to improve himself.

If the story only went this far, it would be an epic story about the "original witch" or the "girl and the dragon".

But fate always plays a big joke on us inadvertently.

In the tenth year after the girl came to Dragon's Nest, she suddenly proposed the idea of ​​going down the mountain to take a look.

But the Black Dragon didn't care about it at all.

Because He never restricted the girl's actions, whatever she wanted to do was her own business.

It was this trip down the mountain that completely changed the girl.

Because her only purpose of going down the mountain was to see her former relatives.

But when she arrived at the familiar village, the girl despairedly discovered that what greeted her was not her familiar relatives, but a desolate ruin.

After going around in circles, the girl finally understood what happened here.

It turned out that on the same day that the black dragon rescued her, the black dragon passing by the village suddenly had an impulse and sprayed a breath of dragon fire directly at the village.

This is the God who is high above.

They can grant blessings at will, and can also bring disasters at will.

reason?

God never needs a reason.

They just thought so and then did it, that's all.

After understanding all this, a seed of hatred was planted in the girl's heart.

She wanted to find a way to judge the gods.

After all, ordinary people who make mistakes can be punished by law.

But if the gods make a mistake, who can punish them?
The girl didn't know, but she wanted to know...
