This knight is too perfect

Chapter 52: The Glory of the Knight [45]

"Damn Garcia, damn the Holy Communion, what the hell did they do to my territory!"

In the town of Thorn, Angelo led the Thorn Cavalry to break through the "Communion Curtain" that covered the town.

At first glance, I saw the miserable scene in front of me, which was full of devastation and no sign of life anywhere the light could reach.

Seeing his territory destroyed to such an extent by Garcia and the Holy Communion, Angelo's anger has reached a point where it can no longer be concealed.

Although before coming here, he had already thought about the worst possible outcome.

But people always have the greatest fantasies about the future before they see the actual results with their own eyes.

But when this bloody reality was placed before him, Angelo's fantasy... was finally shattered.

Boundless anger made Angelo tremble all over, and he bit his mouth so hard that it seemed as if he wanted to break it.

Soon, Angelo gave a decisive order.

"Kill! Kill all the monsters that appear here, leaving no one alive!"

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, a large number of fully armed Thorn Cavalry rushed towards the densely packed Soul Stealers in the town.

Although these soul stealers are difficult to deal with, the Thorn Cavalry led by Baron Angelo are even more powerful.

Because all of these people have received rigorous and professional training.

And now they are endowed with the extraordinary characteristics of the "Sword of the Scepter" in Angelo's hand, the Crown of Thorns.

[Name: Crown of Thorns]

[Level: Bronze]

[Effect: Those who wear the crown of thorns can cut through thorns and have no fear of death.]

With the blessing of the Crown of Thorns, every cavalryman in the Thorn Cavalry Regiment, their armor, and the horses they ride, all have green spikes similar to thorns.

These green spikes are extremely sharp and emit a unique fluorescence, providing the Thorn Riders with a special kind of protection.

This allows them to be fearless of attacks from soul stealers and the so-called source poison.

But the characteristic of source poison is gone.

A mere group of flesh-and-blood soul stealers are no match for the Thorn Riders who are like a torrent of steel.

Therefore, in a very short time, Angelo led the Thorn Cavalry Regiment to attack the current Thorn Town.

Soon, there was no trace of life on the streets of the once prosperous Thorn Town.

All that was left were large numbers of shattered bodies of soul stealers that had been chopped off by swords, pierced by spears, and trampled by horses' hooves.

Soon, Angelo and his group arrived in front of the castle with an unstoppable force.

At this time, a large number of soul stealers gathered around the castle, after hearing the noise coming from not far away, rushed out from all parts of the castle fearlessly and attacked the Thorn Cavalry with cold expressions.

But facing the attacks of just a few soul stealers, not only Angelo, but even the ordinary Thorn Cavalry did not take them seriously.

After all, how could the flesh and blood of the soul stealer compare to the cavalry's hard armor and sharp weapons?
Therefore, there was no need for Angelo to speak, and the cavalrymen around him took the initiative to meet those soul stealers.

And like a ruthless killing weapon, it continues to reap the lives of these soul stealers.

However, in the face of the bravery of their cavalrymen, Angelo and Rhine beside him did not pay too much attention.

Because the two of them were now focused on a motionless figure behind the soul stealer.

"Teacher Fergus..."

Rhine looked at Fergus in the distance, whose eyes were blinded and whose body was covered with strange blood lines and red roses, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Like Angelo, Rhine had thought about everything that would happen in Thorn Town before coming here and prepared for the worst.

But when the cruel reality was placed before Rhine, even though he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Angelo, who was standing aside, had no idea what kind of relationship there was between Rhine and Fergus.

But judging from Rhine's expression at the moment, Fergus must be a very important person to Rhine.

Looking at the person who is extremely important to him, being toyed with by the monster of the Holy Communion and becoming a half-human, half-ghost now.

This is unacceptable to anyone.

Angelo understood this feeling very well, and knew exactly what a huge impact it would have on a person.

After all, he had experienced a similar situation before.

"Ugh……"

Angelo sighed, then turned over and got off the horse, looking at Fergus in the distance with complicated eyes.

"Fergus, Fergus, when you first came to me, I saw the cowardice and avoidance in your heart, but at the same time, I also saw the perseverance of a knight in you."

"This is also the reason why I ignored the church's opposition and took you in despite the pressure, even though I paid a high price in the process."

"But I am extremely glad that I made this decision at that time, and I am happy that you can find your former self now." "You have done everything you can. Now, let me personally find the glory that should belong to you and send you on this final journey."

After that, Angelo prepared to step forward personally and end Fergus's current suffering.

But just as he was about to walk out, Rhine walked up to him first.

"Lord Angelo, I wonder if you can give this task to me, your teacher's student?"

Angelo looked at the expressionless Rhine in astonishment, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Kid, are you sure you can do it?"

"I know exactly what you are thinking at this time, and I also understand that you want to use this method to alleviate the pain in your heart."

"But kid, you have to remember that, especially at times like this, we must exercise restraint."

"Because anger will only make you lose your judgment of the situation and do stupid things that will make your loved ones hate you and your enemies happy."

"So, kid, you don't have to be so stubborn. This honor that belongs to Knight Fergus should be bestowed by me, his former lord, personally."

Angelo's words were sincere and full of well-intentioned warnings from someone who had experienced it all.

However, despite Angelo's kindness, Rhine still firmly stated his decision.

"Please believe me, Lord Angelo. I am sure that I am extremely calm right now."

"Besides, I have made an agreement with the teacher. I can bear the curse that belongs to him, but he needs to remember his past regrets and try his best to prevent similar situations from happening again."

"There is no doubt that the teacher has fulfilled this promise to me with his actions."

"If that's the case, then I should use my actions at this moment to give the teacher the response he deserves."

"After all, I believe that if the teacher knew everything that happened to him, he would also want me to see him off for the last time."

Looking at Rhine with a determined look, Angelo fell silent.

After some thought, he finally chose to put down the scepter sword in his hand.

He patted Rhine on the shoulder and said, "Okay, but if I find that you can't complete this task, I will not hesitate to take action."

"Go, kid, help Knight Fergus regain the glory that belongs to him."

In response to Angelo's promise, Rhine performed a standard knight's salute to him.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master Angelo."

After saying that, Rhine turned around.

After ignoring the soul stealers who were being madly killed by the Thorn Riders around him, he walked among the corpses on the ground and came to a place not far in front of Fergus.

And it was only after Rhine approached to a certain distance that Fergus, who had been standing still, finally reacted.

At this moment, Fergus no longer had the cheerfulness and heroism of the past.

There is only an indescribable cruelty, oppression, and...power that can be seen with the naked eye.

Fergus raised the heavy "Carlos Greatsword" in his hand, and the empty eye sockets without eyeballs exuded a deep darkness. In a silent way, he stared at Rhine who was walking towards him step by step.

In response to Fergus's silent warning, Rhine drew out his sword from the stone and spoke the most sincere words in his heart in the most gentle tone.

Whether Fergus could hear it or not.

"Teacher Fergus, thank you very much for taking care of the students during this period of time."

"Although you always say that those were the results of your deliberate actions, and that they were your deliberate help in your search for liberation, so that I, as a student, don't need to care too much, and don't need to feel that I owe you anything."

"But I know very well that even if it is intentional kindness, it is still kindness. Moreover, in my opinion, your kindness to me... is never intentional."

"So, let the students personally send you off on this final journey."

"And this time, I, your student, will not hesitate at all, because this is the truth you taught me not long ago, isn't it?"

As he spoke, Rhine raised the Sword in the Stone in his hand and for the first time, revealed his murderous intent without reservation and purely.

The murderous intent was so strong that even the soul stealers around could feel it.

So much so that they subconsciously moved away from where Rhine was.

Fergus, who was not far away, also felt this pure murderous intent.

Fergus responded to this.

That is to hold the Carlos sword with both hands and point it at Rhine.

A life-and-death battle between teachers and students begins at this moment...
