Become a knight starting with synthesized entries.

"Lord Levi," Roan called out to Levi.

"Don't worry too much. I've made a few more bottles of Dragon Purification Potion. Even if I'm not here, the dragon poison in your body won't worsen. Don't worry."

Levi was taken aback, then suddenly understood what Luo An meant.

"You little rascal," Levi said with a laugh, patting Roan on the shoulder.

"Don't underestimate any Black Iron Knight, including me. Roan, I bear the name 'Noble,' how could I be defeated by a measly bit of dragon poison?"

Luo An nodded; he naturally trusted Levi's.

"By the way," Levi said, his smile fading. "Luo An, who told you to make Dragon Purification Potion?"

Luo An hadn't expected Levi's question. After a moment's thought, he said, "I stumbled upon this ancient recipe when I was practicing potion-making in Market Street. I didn't expect it would come in handy. Is there a problem?"

"Can I see that recipe?" Levi blurted out.

Luo An was taken aback, then shook his head.

"Sorry, I've memorized it. I can write it down if you really need it."

"...No, no need, forget it," Levi muttered.

"Luo An, be careful. You are very strong, but remember to always stay vigilant."

The familiar voice echoed in his ears, and Luo An breathed a sigh of relief before waving goodbye and leaving.

Levi's face darkened as soon as Roan left.

He pressed his hand to his chest, feeling his heart pounding through the armor, and knew where the answer to his deepest desires came from.

Levi, who was well-versed in the history of the kingdom's knights, knew about the Dragonblood Knights.

Those warriors who became incredibly powerful by bathing in dragon blood were admired and envied by knights. Countless people imitated the dragon-blood knights, hunting dragons and bathing in their blood.

However, the dragon blood did not give them power, but rather dragon poison that constantly burned their flesh.

From then on, the knights knew that only the luckiest knights could gain power by bathing in dragon's blood.

Have the knights given up?

The answer is no.

Some of them chose to gain power by consuming the flesh of a dragon through the Dragon Offering ritual.

Dragon Cleansing Potion is a potion used to suppress dragon poison during the Dragon Offering Ceremony.

No, it's much more than that; the Dragon Purification Potion awakens a person's desire for dragons.

Levi's gripped the key to open the barn tightly.

Now that Roan is gone, Heather won't interfere in his affairs. If Levi wants, he can open the barn at any time and devour the dragon's flesh without restraint.

Levi felt fear.

......

To eliminate the monsters, new armor is naturally needed.

When Luo An arrived at the blacksmith shop, he immediately saw the repaired silver armor displayed at the entrance.

"Lord Roan," Jalli greeted Roan.

"You tamed a magical beast? That's really cool."

Luo An smiled and said, "That's the lord's mount; I'm just borrowing it."

In other words, it should be considered as using a public vehicle for official purposes, Luo An thought.

"Wow," Jalley chuckled. "Borrowing? Why doesn't the lord lend me his monsters?"

"You brat," Roan frowned slightly, "have you lost your chivalry in just two months?"

Jalli suddenly became serious: "Lord Roan, your armor has been repaired and you can wear it at any time."

Luo An examined the flowing silver armor. This incredibly sturdy armor had inevitably suffered some bumps and knocks after being with Luo An for so long, but now it was as clean and new as ever.

"Not bad. Please thank Jacques for me," Roan commented.

Maintaining the Silver Armor requires not only superb skills but also a long time.

Jally scratched his head. "Actually, I fixed it."

"Oh?" Roan was somewhat surprised. "I didn't realize you had a talent for repairing armor."

"Hehe," Jally said, scratching his head as he took out a set of exquisite leather armor. "By the way, this is the leather armor I tanned for you. You've been very busy lately, so I didn't get you to take your measurements. I made it according to the old measurements. Take a look and see if it fits."

Luo An didn't stand on ceremony. This leather armor was tailor-made for him, and it wouldn't be suitable for anyone else to wear it.

Every part fits Luo An perfectly, without affecting his movements in the slightest.

"Lord Roan, you can put your armor back on. This leather armor has been specially treated to fit your armor perfectly without feeling restrictive."

Roan nodded and had Jally help him put on the silver armor.

The weight of the silver armor pressed evenly onto the leather armor, yet Roan felt that he could breathe much more easily than before.

All that's left are weapons.

"Wait a moment." Jali walked into the blacksmith's shop and laboriously carried out a large sword.

From the hilt to the tip, the entire sword is nearly as tall as a person. The tail is thick and hard, and the tip is sharp. The whole greatsword is white like bone and dark like iron.

"This is a prototype of the Dragonbone Greatsword, which we made by mixing iron and dragon bone." Jali stroked the sword with fascination.

"It's not entirely made of dragon iron; it's a sword designed for the guards of the fortress, so it's lighter."

"Lord Roan's sword requires advanced technology to be made, and I will certainly make the best sword for Lord Roan," Jalli explained.

Luo An didn't care. He took the longsword and immediately felt his breathing become heavier.

"Such a heavy sword for the guards? Can they even wield it?" Luo An tried to swing it, but it was more suitable for smashing than slashing.

Jalley gave a wry smile and shook his head. "It can't be used yet. It can only be put into use after the guards have been trained and the blade has been improved."

"This is my suggestion. To slay inhuman beings, one must use inhuman weapons," Jali said.

"If I had this longsword, perhaps I wouldn't have lost to the priest back then."

"..." Roan patted Jally on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I've found the [Great Restoration] spell. Just bear with it for a little longer."

Jalley gave a wry smile. It wasn't that he didn't trust Roan, but he knew how difficult it was to obtain the [Great Restoration Spell].

"I understand, Lord Roan. Please use this prototype greatsword to your heart's content and share your experiences with me, so I can improve it."

Luo An nodded. Now that he had the greatsword, it was time to see what it felt like.

After thinking for a moment, Luo An quickly found a place to go.

Waving goodbye to Jally, Roan mounted the griffin and silently recited in his heart, knowing his destination by relying on "The Beginning of the Journey".

North of Lorton lies the territory of Lord Pange.

"Let's go this way," Roan whispered to the griffin.

The griffin let out a low, dissatisfied howl, then soared into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the massive fortress was already beneath Roan's feet.

Without the slightest pause, the griffin flapped its wings, transforming into a streak of light on the horizon, and flew swiftly northward.

The scenery below changed rapidly, passing through vast wilderness, where the population gradually thinned out, and in less than two prayer hours, farmland and mountain villages reappeared.

Roan has arrived in Lord Pange's lands. In the Aisen Territory, this is the most fertile plains.

However, from the air, large areas of the villages were abandoned, clearly having been attacked by monsters.
