Chapter 33 The King of Knights (2)
"Yitzhak?" How could he appear here?
Roland stood there with a sword, thinking about the letter Yizhak left to him before.
Didn’t I say that I returned to the fiefdom to resolve the family dispute? Why did I get here...
etc……
This guy is lying!!
I suddenly remembered that I had seen an introduction about the ruler of Luo Lian in the book I borrowed from my mentor Farien.
Thinking of this, Roland's heart suddenly appeared in her emotions - anger, anger caused by being deceived.
Due to historical reasons, the fiefs of Luolian's grand duke of all dynasties were in Dem. As the second only to the king, this important position was usually held by the royal family.
After taking office as the rebellion of Grand Duke Luolian, the Holy Empire appointed the vacant Grand Duke to Yizhak, who had the bloodline of the Light Truk and the Holy Empire, and also served as a Paladin.
The Grand Duke must return to the fief because of a tribe dispute, which means that the place he is going to is Dem, which happens to be the same place as him. Since it is the same destination, why should he leave separately? He also sent an old housekeeper to monitor him.
Thinking of Meer's urgent sight at that time, Roland's anger rose a little further.
"Put the weapon away, Mindasur. Do you want to be rude in front of the Knight King?" The great elder Zeta saw that the Golden Knight was still kneeling on the ground and scolded him again.
"Knight...king?"
Strange title.
Although I don’t know much about this world, Roland vaguely remembers that although having a knight title is equivalent to being a noble,... a real knight will never be a king. In addition to the first hero king Ai Ku, in order to fight against the magic empire established by the descendants of the old gods, the knights established two major precepts besides the nine dogmas: "Don’t rebel against the Lord" and "Don’t be a king".
For three thousand years, knights who believe in dogma and precepts have never violated their oath from the day they received the title.
Why... Yizhak has such a title. Even if he is a Paladin, even if he is the Grand Duke of Luo Lian, or even the Emperor of the Empire, he cannot violate the laws of the knights.
"This is just a title, not a real king. Lord Roland, can you please put away your indignation and the weapons in your hands? We need to talk carefully about Baroso, the Lich, the Death Corps, and the Blood Wings." After not seeing each other for several days, the Paladin still had that calm expression, but... some changes.
Compared with the gentle and polite Yitzhak before, the one in front of him... is not about pretending to be pretending. But his tone has some respect and admiration that he has never had before.
The anger of being deceived gradually faded in those eyes that were as blue as Rafa, and Roland mocked his childishness.
What's the use of anger, Roland.
He has his own position, just as you have his own position without saying what you are from another world.
Whether it is Rafa, Yitzhak or myself, I have my own reasons to deceive others. What qualifications do I have to be angry now?
"Your Excellency?!" Mindasur, who had just stood up, looked up in surprise, almost thinking that he had hallucinations.
As a church paladin, one of the twelve golden roses, Izhak Van Estoni, who also serves as the commander of the Grand Duke Luolian and the Golden Tree Knights, would actually use honorific words to an inconspicuous boy.
What is this guy... the origin and identity? It is obviously just a dead soul, why did Your Excellency Yizhak treat him so politely?
Glazing at Roland, who had already put away his surprised expression behind him, Mindasul was full of doubts.
"I prefer your original way of saying it, Mr. Knight." Withdrawing his sword and returning to the sheath, Roland walked to Allen, but found that the boy's eyes were dull and his eyes were staring at the Paladin not far away.
"I'm sorry, you, although I like the original title, your identity does not allow me to offend this way. After all,... the members of Blood Wings are already waiting in the chamber. Let's talk about the old words later." I'm leaning against the exit of the arena, and Izhak's sincere invitation made Roland unable to refuse.
Under the escort of a whole team of heavy armored cavalry, Roland and the Paladin walked side by side at the front of the team, and no one was seen in the solemn academy.
After looking back, the five elders followed closely, with no expression on the old-fashioned old face. Only the Golden Knight Minda Suer and Allen with a bitter face and the cavalrymen were behind them.
From leaving the Blood Wing headquarters to being taken to the Lion Heart by Mindasur to being taken to the Lion Heart House for only one meal, what happened during this period?
Not only was Blood Wing, who had been engaged in secret activities, was invited by the Golden Tree, but even Yizhak, who claimed to have resolved the disputes within the clan, appeared.
What happened...what happened?
Walking to an ancient Odrigan-style hall, when the guard at the door pushed open the heavy gate and looked at the people sitting upright inside, Roland was silent.
Obi, Farian, and Ravit are all important members of Blood Wings.
In addition, the circular conference table was filled with dozens of strangers in different clothes. They looked at the outfits, including nobles, knights, and even magicians, all of which were available.
There is no one sitting in the center, but a crystal ball with clear color is placed, and the colorful streamers of erratic light show its expensiveness.
The magical image emitted from the inside of the crystal reflects the tired and pale face of the French Emperor Defik.
"Come here, Alan. You guy who makes trouble!!" Lavitt angrily scolded with a stern face. The young knight who knew he was wrong had to walk over and accept the scolding.
"It's really unreasonable. Don't you know the current situation? The power of the lich is getting more and more rampant, and you actually..." Farian was about to join the team of lessons, and Obi waved his hand and signaled them to stop. After all, this is a golden tree, not a blood wing.
"Everyone, since everyone is here, can I ask you to explain what the purpose of the church and the Golden Tree are?" As a human being, Obey is easier to speak than Farian and Ravit. After all, the undead is the public enemy of mankind. As the spokesperson of Blood Wings, he must not ask questions first.
If the Golden Tree Knights had not come to the door, Blood Wing would not even know that Roland and Allen were arrested for leaving without permission.
"This is an extraordinary meeting held by His Majesty the Emperor as the initiator and adviser. The purpose is of course to discuss how to deal with how to prevent the invasion of the Holy Southern Continent from the one step closer to the Holy Southern Continent." The first person to speak was Zeta, the great elder of the Golden Tree. The image of the Emperor, who proposed the meeting, sat silently.
"What?!"
The members of the Blood Wing looked at each other and saw a surprised expression on each other's face.
