Chapter 44: The Glory of the Knight

"No, Lord Count. ā€

The reddish-gray smudge on his face made it impossible to accurately judge his expression, but Charlotte thought he wouldn't be happy.

"He is my knight lord and my master, and I tried my best to snatch out his body, but I still couldn't protect it. The veteran pointed to the thumping wall of bones, where the corpses were piled up so that it was difficult for anyone to find a complete body in the pile of severed limbs.

"I was born into a family of knights, the kind without hereditary rights. He took the explosive device handed by Charlotte, an inductive three-dimensional device that could take countless lives, including him, with a slight pressure from someone.

The veteran ** device, as if sighing, as if reminiscing, "At that time, I wandered around to sharpen my martial arts, and in an adventure, I almost died when I met the knight master, and he accepted me as a knight's squire." Then he taught me all kinds of knightly skills, and I followed him around on adventures and battles. ā€

"It was the happiest time...... "The old man smiled, his eyes shining only on his dirty face, "he always said that as long as he became a viscount, he would give me the title of knight." I believe everything he says, it's a pity that ......"

He sighed, and smiled like relief and sorrow, "I can't do anything now." So, my lords, at least in the end, let me die like a knight. ā€

- I really don't know the sorrow of the world in my life!

Charlotte didn't know what it was like, he raised the enchanted sword and said solemnly.

"You're not just like a knight! Now, please tell me your name!"

The veteran was stunned, as if he realized something, and his lips trembled with excitement and his eyes were rosy, "Hardy!

"Hardy Baker, get on your knees!, uh, forget it......" Charlotte said as she looked at his almost twisted legs.

However, Hoyle exchanged glances with Mallory, grabbing the veteran's arms left and right, and letting his almost deformed legs fall to his knees. The veteran broke out in a cold sweat of pain, but still cast a grateful look at the two.

Charlotte's heart ached like pins and needles, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, but he put on a solemn expression and solemnly said the knightly declaration according to the appearance of Lawrence in his memory.

"Hardy, follow me!"

"Yes!"

"I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to be brave against rape, I swear to fight against all wrong, I swear to fight for the defenseless, I swear to help anyone who asks me for help, I swear not to hurt any woman, I swear to help my brother knights, I swear to be sincere to my friends, I swear to die for what I love!"

Every time Charlotte said a word, Hardy answered it with excitement and solemnity.

"I will abide by the chivalric principles of humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, mercy, spirit, honesty, and justice until death!"

"I will abide by the chivalric principles of humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, mercy, spirit, honesty, and justice until death!"

On the battlefield, Hardy swore loudly, and the loud oath even drowned out the shouts of killing on the other side of the bone wall. The killing sound stopped for a moment, but then it boiled even more!

The bone wall was about to crack, and Elle mustered all the strength to strengthen the wall of life.

Charlotte, despite the looming crisis, touched Hardy on the shoulder three times with the back of her sword.

"In the name of the rightful heir of the magical kingdom of the North, the Grand Duke of Icewind Castle, the Earl of Wintercastle, and the Son of the North, I hereby appoint you as the royal knight of Icewind Castle!"

Does Icewind have a knight's prayer move? Charlotte didn't know. He followed his memory and posed the knightly prayer of Erosa, holding the tip of his sword upright and his forehead against the blade.

"May glory be with you!

Hoyle and Mallory also performed the knightly salute of Lossy, and no one reproached Mallory for his transgression.

"May glory be with you!

The veteran choked up and posed as Charlotte prayed, tears on his bloody and gray face.

"Glory be with you!

Boom Boom –

A series of explosions came from the canyon behind him, and images came from the mage's eyes that had once again been in the air. At the moment when the bone wall was completely shattered, Hardy calmly pressed the blast button in front of the surrounding temple soldiers.

He seems to have said something before he died, Charlotte had never learned lip language, but judging by the shape of his mouth, he seemed to mention the word 'knight'.

After that, a series of explosions destroyed the cliffs on either side of the canyon, and the falling boulders kicked up a cloud of dust to bury the Templars who rushed into the canyon. Although the smoke obscured the view, everyone thought that those people would not be happy.

In this way, even if there are all kinds of miraculous forces to clean up, at least the enemy can be delayed for another half an hour.

However, no one was happy, counting Charlotte and Elle, a total of seventy-one soldiers were left to snipe, and in the end, only four were left alive.

"He's more of a knight than anyone else. Riding on his horse, Hoyle said without a tail.

"He's already a great knight. Charlotte's voice was equally low.

At this time, Mallory, who was naturally bold, interjected into the conversation between the two, "...... Is that where the knights end up?"

"What?" Hoyle tilted his head, "Are you scared?"

"No!" Malorion looked up, his blood-stained face wrinkled, "I'm just wondering when I'll become a glorious knight!"

"Hmph, bastard!" Hoyle scolded, but Mallory heard the uplifting words in the wind, "When you get to Yarrow County, I will ask the Grand Duke of Brent to award you the honour himself!"

"Really, really?!"

"And then!" a glittering sword flew in front of him, and Mallory scrambled to hold it, only to realize that it was the enchanted longsword that had been awarded to Hardy.

A long sword stained with blood and glory on the sword.

Charlotte in front of her turned her head, "Don't be stupid, I'll teach you knightly skills when I get back to Yarrowshire!"

"Wow, I—I'm not dreaming!"

"Hmph, idiot, are you so happy?, how many such enchanted weapons Charlotte has, and as for martial arts, how much do you expect to learn from a mage?!" Elle snorted disdainfully, and suddenly pointed to the virtual mirror in front of her, "Ahhhhh

Charlotte looked at it and saw a silver light flickering in the smoke and dust in the sky. The split air flow reached the sky, pushing the billowing smoke and dust away strongly.

Herrington, who had arrived in the air, looked at the mage's eyes hanging high in the air, and the expression on his face was terrifyingly calm. Then, he held out his index finger towards the mage's eye, which retracted and slowly swiped through his throat.

"Humph!"

Charlotte snorted coldly, knowing that the other party couldn't see it, but he made a shooting and aiming pose towards the mirror. Then, gently raise your thumb and forefinger in a figure-of-eight shape.

"Smack!"

Charlotte spat out words that represented the declaration of death. At the same time, the mirror flashed, and the Mage's Eye was completely destroyed by Helrington.

- The next time we meet, it's your time of death!

These are the same thoughts in the hearts of the mages and the elect at both ends of the canyon of destruction.
