Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 95 Round Table Council
Although the purpose of the Round Table Council is unclear, at least for now, they have no intention of harming themselves.

"What can I get if I join you?" Robin asked in a low voice.

Audis smiled, with a hint of confidence in his tone: “First of all, we will protect your safety and ensure that you will not be hunted down by the Wizard Council or the Dark Wizard Pact.

Secondly, we will provide you with resources and guidance to help you quickly improve your strength. Finally, when you complete your mission, we will help you clear your grievances and even earn you a place in the kingdom.

Robin's heart moved. Audis's conditions were indeed very tempting. But he remained vigilant and asked in a low voice, "What do you want me to do?"

Audis looked at Robin with a flicker of approval in his eyes. He knew that Robin was not someone who would be easily tempted. This kind of caution and rationality was exactly what the Round Table needed.

"We need you to complete a mission." Audis whispered with a hint of seriousness in his tone. "This mission concerns the future of the kingdom and may even affect the balance of the entire wizarding world."

Robin frowned, feeling vaguely uneasy: "What mission?"

Audis took out a tattered map from his arms and spread it out on the ground.

Several important locations are marked on the map, the most prominent of which is an area in the north with the words "Shadow Mountains" written on it.

"The Shadow Mountains are the secret base of the Black Pact and the place where they create the Soul-Devouring Crystal." Audis pointed to the mark on the map and explained in a low voice, "According to our intelligence, the Black Pact is conducting a dangerous experiment there, attempting to use the power of the Soul-Devouring Crystal to create a magical weapon capable of controlling wizards and knights. If their plan succeeds, the entire kingdom will be plunged into chaos."

Robin was shocked. He had never expected the Dark Wizards Pact to be so ambitious. He whispered, "You want me to destroy this experiment?"

Audis nodded, his tone filled with anticipation: "Indeed. You are the only one who can wield the power of both a knight and a wizard.

The core area of ​​Shadow Mountain is protected by a powerful magical barrier. Only someone like you, who possesses both the abilities of a knight and a wizard, can break through the barrier and destroy their experiments."

Robin was silent for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

This mission is extremely dangerous. The Shadow Mountains is one of the forbidden areas in the wizarding world. Legend has it that it is full of dangers and unknown magical traps.

He also knew that he had no other choice in his current situation. Neither the Wizarding Council nor the Dark Wizards Pact would let him go easily.

"If I promise you, can you guarantee my safety?" Robin asked in a low voice.

Audis nodded solemnly. "I assure you in the name of the Round Table Council that we will do our utmost to protect your safety. Not only that, we will also provide you with all the necessary resources and guidance to help you quickly improve your strength."

Robin took a deep breath, a look of determination flashing in his eyes: "Okay, I promise you. But you must fulfill your promise. After the mission is completed, I want a completely changed identity."

Audis smiled, with a hint of confidence in his tone: "Don't worry, the Round Table Council never breaks its promise."

Robin nodded, then asked, "When do we take action?"

Audis put away the map and whispered, "No rush, you're still too weak. We'll return to the capital early tomorrow morning. You should rest well tonight and recover your strength."

Robin didn't say anything else. He sat on a rock beside him, closed his eyes and began to practice the "Dragon-Eating Breathing Technique".

In the dead of night, Robin suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Odis, you said before that I have something you want. What is it?"

Audis was silent for a moment, then whispered, "It's your potential, Robin. You have a special power that can harness the abilities of both a knight and a wizard. This power is exactly what our Round Table needs."

Robin was shocked. He had never thought that Audis would see his potential. He whispered, "So how do you plan to utilize my potential?"

Audis smiled, a hint of mystery in his tone: "Now is not the time to tell you. But don't worry, we won't force you to do anything. Your choice will determine your future."

Robin closed his eyes and continued practicing Dragon-Devouring Breathing, trying to calm his inner turmoil. His current situation was extremely delicate. While the Round Table Council was superficially friendly to him, their true intentions remained unclear.

Audis' words made him realize that he might have some power hidden in him that he himself was not aware of, and this power was exactly what the Round Table needed.

"Potential...special powers..." Robin thought to himself, frowning slightly.

He recalled the various anomalies that occurred during his training, especially the powerful effect of the "Dragon Devouring Breathing Technique" and his ability to practice multiple breathing techniques at the same time.

All these seem to imply that there is indeed something different about him.

Instead of being excited, Robin became even more wary.

This power can be a help to him, but it can also be a burden to him.

The Round Table Council saw his potential, but that didn't mean they would help him unconditionally.

Instead, they might use his power to achieve their own ends.

"I must improve my strength as quickly as possible to take the initiative in this game." Robin thought to himself, with a flicker of determination in his eyes.

The next morning, Audis took Robin out of the Ash Wasteland and headed towards the royal capital.

Along the way, Audis didn't say much, but occasionally reminded Robin to pay attention to the movements around him.

Robin didn't ask any more questions. Now was not the time to reveal all the mysteries.

A few days later, they finally arrived at the royal capital.

The prosperity of the royal capital made Robin feel dazed. People were coming and going on the streets, and the vendors' cries were heard one after another, as if all dangers were far away from him.

This is just the surface. Behind the royal capital lies a more complex power struggle.

Audis took Robin to a remote house, where two guards in plain clothes stood at the door.

When they saw Audis, they nodded slightly and then opened the door.

"This is a stronghold of the Round Table Council." Audis explained in a low voice, "You can rest here for the time being. We will provide you with all the necessary resources."

Robin nodded, and had a deeper understanding of the strength of the Round Table Council.

The power of this organization is far more powerful than he imagined.

After entering the house, Audis arranged for Robin to live in a spacious room.

The room is fully equipped and even has a small practice room.

"You rest here for a few days first. We will arrange a mentor for you to help you improve your strength." Audis said.

Robin nodded, looking forward to the upcoming training.
