Chapter 25: Blade Master's magnificent performance~

"I'm sorry, brother, for being so presumptuous, but... I heard that Master Camilla has started the Trial of Bravery at the Foundry. He must be incredibly powerful, so I'm interested in challenging him.

Now that we've met, there's no need to worry about the occasion, let's try our hand!"

The tall man tugged at the lace scarf at his collar. Although his words were polite, his eyes seemed to be burning with fire as he stared at Camilla, his fighting spirit high!

Knights are warlike, and he is no exception.

Kamila recalled briefly and recognized the man.

"Satlganov of the Guleri family? You're quite capable, but if you want to challenge me, you're not enough on your own."

The Guleri family has a titled knight who formed a knightly order to garrison the northern Silvermoon Fortress defense line.

Most of the knights were like this, either on the coast of the Black Gold Sea or in the North, and some were in the spirit world. Only knights like Gudnai and the old knights who could not form an effective combat force or had other responsibilities would stay in relatively peaceful places like the city of Sharta.

"Then add me in."

A handsome young man walked out from among the guests who were watching with interest and said with a smile.

"My sister got beaten up and begged me to help, so I had to come."

He explained, but clearly didn't care.

It's nothing for young people to get beaten up occasionally.

"it is good."

Camilla nodded, looked around, and spoke loudly.

"Anyone who wants to challenge me can come together! As long as they are not official knights, as many as you want will be welcome!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the guests became agitated.

No matter how many come, doesn't that mean you think you are invincible under the official knights?

The old knight who had been watching calmly said with a smile at this time.

"As a knight, strength is paramount. Without it, everything else is meaningless! Since all of you young talents are interested in competing, please head to the training grounds. Interested guests are welcome to join us!"

The old knight recalled that many years ago, he was also in his prime and full of vigor and vitality.

It’s great to be young…

He sighed, looked down at his old body half buried in the ground, and his thoughts were indescribable.

The maximum lifespan of a formal knight is between two hundred and two hundred and forty, but due to too many fierce battles in their youth, they basically accumulate a lot of hidden injuries, which are difficult to cure, and few can live to two hundred.

The crowd rushed to the training ground behind the mansion.

There are many apprentice knights at the dinner tonight. Almost all descendants of knight families can become apprentice knights. There are also many ordinary people who have trained to become apprentice knights, and their strengths vary.

As for the official knights, there are really no other ones except the old knight.

It’s not that there are no invitations, but basically no one is interested. It’s enough to send the younger generation in the family to come and see the world.

The Estonian family's training ground was much smaller than Stuart's, but it was large enough for a group of apprentice knights to fight.

The guests who had already arrived at Estonia's house gathered towards the training ground.

In the end, eight apprentice knights emerged from the crowd.

Of course, there are more people with outstanding strength than these, but not all of them are so warlike. Some people are simply cautious and can restrain themselves and not participate in battles at will.

A middle-aged man from an Estonian family came forward to act as a referee and introduced the rules of the duel.

Similar things have happened too many times, and everyone is actually aware of it.

As long as it doesn't cause death or disability, and doesn't leave irreparable injuries, there are no other restrictions.

The knight's business is not so particular.

It has to be said that there is a huge contrast between the two sides of the duel. The girl named Camilla on one side is only thirteen years old, a cute little boy who looks very soft, while the eight people on the other side are at least tall, strong and muscular men.

No matter how polite he had behaved before, once he took off his tuxedo jacket, he revealed a body of muscles as well-defined as rocks, looking extremely fierce.

Camilla did not take off her dress, but just looked calmly at the eight people facing him.

There was a spiritual glow on everyone's body. It was obvious that each of them had used magic to enhance their abilities, and these were special enhancements with magical effects. Some people even mastered the skills of performing multiple magic tricks at the same time.

He put his hand on his hat.

With the referee's command, the duel began.

He threw his hat high into the air.

The figure blurred slightly, and the sound of breaking wind suddenly arose!

Camilla flashed in front of one of them in an instant, and in the face of the other's shocked and even horrified expression, she twisted her body and punched him, hitting him hard in the abdomen before he raised his hand to block!

The tall body weighing at least two hundred pounds suddenly floated in the air and flew out of the field uncontrollably!

Without stopping, Chimilla used the reaction force to rush towards the other person nearby.

The two figures touched for a moment.

Bang! !

With a dull heavy blow, the opponent was sent flying with his lumbar spine almost broken.

"resist!"

Among the few people who reacted quickly, someone growled and decisively released a magic trick to control the situation.

The spirit transformed into a circular shock wave visible to the naked eye, which spread out instantly and affected the entire scene!

Before, Camilla had no way to deal with this kind of ability and could only withstand it or avoid it from a distance, but now, he just waved his hand and easily broke it, and his superb speed was not affected at all!

While the others were distracted, he took care of one more person.

In the fierce battle that lasted for a split second, all the knights realized that their speed could never keep up with Chimera, and they immediately used various tricks.

Unfortunately, it makes no sense.

The existence of [Mental Destruction] allows Camilla to instantly see the weaknesses of all tricks and easily crack them.

The last man was knocked away by a whip kick. Camilla spun around and jumped, landing lightly back to his original place.

The thrown top hat fell just right, and he caught it in his hands and put it on his head.

At this time, the exclamations of the audience outside the stadium were heard, followed by excited cheers and thunderous applause!

Camilla adjusted her dress slightly and saluted the cheering crowd, as elegant and calm as a dancer who had just finished a wonderful performance.

A battle that was sure to be won could not cause any ripples in his heart.

But this is a necessary battle.

In this way, the old knight would naturally take him to the collection room, so that he could have the possibility of getting more information.

In addition, he was also a little curious about what the item corresponding to [Canned Green Vegetables] was in the collection room.

As expected, the old knight clapped with a smile on his face and slowly walked into the field.

Then he spoke loudly.

"The knights have presented us with a brilliant battle. Camilla, the young wolf of House Stuart, has displayed a bravery worthy of his ancestors! I have decided to give him a treasure for his bravery and for the endless future of Cuisi Guangyao!"

"it is good!"

The audience cheered enthusiastically and gave thunderous applause to this moment.

In the focus of everyone's attention, the old knight and Camilla looked at each other, both smiling politely, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Off the court, Vivian almost fled.

She felt the dark malice!

Can't tell whose it belongs to.

……

Chapter 26: Dinner at Blade Master Tower~

After the excitement, the dinner continued.

Camilla had a brief conversation with the people who had challenged him, then left with the old knight.

Fighting is fighting, but normal social skills still need to be practiced.

Moreover, Kemia defeated them with overwhelming strength, which may have been intended to intimidate everyone and pave the way for the Stuart family's industry.

In this world of extraordinary power, strong military force is the guarantee of stable development.

Knowing that he was about to go to the Knight Academy for further studies and start the Trial of Bravery, and that he had demonstrated top-tier strength at the same level, it could basically be said that he was stable in becoming an official knight. Even if there were some commercial conflicts of interest in the future, they would remain restrained.

If you dare to mess around, you will really get your head beaten to pieces.

Accompanied by the old knight and several people from the Estonian family, Kemila came to the collection room inside the mansion.

The city of Sharta is located in the Jesenic Territory, the fertile land east of Cuis. Further east is the sparsely populated Gisela Territory.

At the end of Gisela Territory is a natural barrier created by the White Lion Paladins. The continental plates are cut here, separating Cuis from the Yongguyue Empire on the other side.

In the past, when Cuisi and Yongguyue had established diplomatic relations, the city of Xialta was a prosperous place often visited by people from Yongguyue.

The mansion was built to receive envoys from Yonggu.

After that, the Cuisi Empire was destroyed and a new country was established. It had no further contact with Yonggu until its death. The mansion was passed around for several times and finally became the residence of the Estonian family.

Some traces of Yonggu Yue are preserved in the collection room.

Decorative hollow-patterned rapiers, ivory carvings, tobacco pouches made of sealskin... one can vaguely see the extravagant style of the upper class in Yongguyue.

The old knight slowly introduced these old objects, as if he was recalling his past through these objects that were steeped in time.

When he was still a young knight, Thuice had not yet severed ties with the Everguy, but he was still in the north at the time, and few people from the Everguy came here. When he arrived in the city of Sharta, only the mansion was empty.

As time goes by, things in the world keep changing.

Whenever he saw these, he couldn't help but think of his glorious days.

After chatting for a long time, the old man and the young man finally came to the area in the collection room where the truly valuable treasures were displayed.

As he got closer, Camilla suddenly felt something calling him.

A strange temptation prompted him to look over and set his eyes on a display case.

Inside the display case is an oak box, painted black and tightly closed.

"what is that?"

Camilla asked, pointing at the oak box.

"That's... Communion."

The old knight said with a meaningful smile.

"Oh? Interesting name, what does it do?"

Camilla continued to ask, her expression calm.

"The Eucharist is a feast dedicated to the Great Being. It is sacred. Using it can elevate one's life to a higher level."

The old knight explained in a low voice.

Camilla tilted her head to look at him and spoke softly.
