Chapter 1: The Death of the Knight

This is a story about wild servants, but don't get me wrong, their birth is not legendary. On the contrary, this is a story of glory and decay, a tragedy of struggling to maintain what little dignity he has left.

There was once such a country, its name was White Jade, and it also had a nice nickname, the noble knight kingdom. It's a fantastic hideaway, with a pleasant climate, fertile soil and great wines, all of which are so enchanting. In the narration of outsiders, Baiyu is like a kingdom in a fairy tale, there is no cold and hunger, no loneliness and boredom, only laughter and singing all day long.

Throughout the world, the White Jade Kingdom is the oldest existence, and the only place where the true way of knighthood has been preserved.

Too long has passed in that era, and many people believe that knights can be called knights only if they only need to receive the knighthood in front of the king, with the so-called knightly virtues in their mouths, honor, soul, wisdom, dedication, valor, mercy, humility, justice, and honesty.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, Bai Yuren's style of acting can be called eccentric and rigid. And the most incomprehensible thing for them is that in this country, whether you are a nobleman or a commoner, as long as you are truly eager for knighthood, no family will refuse your request to learn.

The path of true knightly cultivation is arduous and difficult, and countless people will be forced to retreat at the beginning of training, even if some people with perseverance and tenacity grit their teeth and persevere, they will be eliminated by the more demanding moral examination schools in the future. And this is only the first stage of knightly training, there are eight more to come.

The person who can complete these trainings and tests can be described as one in a million.

Outsiders may think that there is a big problem with such a system, but in the eyes of the white jade people, the title of knight is as pure and precious as a god, and failure does not mean that the system is a problem, and they cannot pass the test only their own shortcomings. Yes, only the most perfect people are qualified to be true knights.

The knight's test is only the beginning, and when a newcomer completes all of the above tests after a lot of hard work, he will only be awarded the title of apprentice knight. The Apprentice Knight must stay with the Knight family to continue his studies, gradually grow into a powerful full-fledged Knight through each family's unique inheritance method, and use his power to serve the family during this time until he repays the grace of cultivation. After that, the apprentice knight can travel to the royal capital and join the knights under the king's command, accumulating merit and fame in the hope of eventually becoming a knight lord.

Knight Lord is the most honorable title in the White Jade Kingdom, which not only means that a knight has officially entered the aristocratic class, but also has the qualifications to create a new knight family. It was too difficult to obtain such a title, and even after thousands of years of accumulation in the kingdom, only 176 knight families appeared.

From a rational point of view, this approach is inefficient. But for thousands of years, the White Jade Kingdom has stubbornly adhered to its own traditions and pride, and their army composed entirely of knights is pitifully small in number, but its firm and noble beliefs and virtues make every knight have a strength that ordinary people can hardly match on the battlefield.

It's hard to feel bad for these rigid knights, who still adhere to the oldest noble spirits, even in the face of an army of enemies. The knights never attacked the enemy, nor did they kill a single enemy who surrendered, and they were willing to accept defeat even if they were willing to attack an army that was gathering or crossing a river. Yes, in the eyes of the knights, a just war must wait for the two armies to form themselves and fight it out with a frontal charge.

The knights often suffered unnecessary losses due to their rigid fighting methods, but their strong spirit supported them to turn defeat into victory time and again. The stubbornness of the knights eventually gained the respect of their enemies, and the White Jade Knights became a legend.

The destruction of some countries means that others become stronger, with fewer and fewer wars, and the costs become higher and higher. In the end, the whole world ushered in a rare period of peace. Without the threat of war, the knights had more room to wield, and they were scattered all over the world, following their promises, punishing the evil and helping the evil.

The world seems to be a better place thanks to their efforts.

Until one day, the appearance of monsters changed the whole pattern of the world, these terrifying monsters came out of nowhere, they swarmed into the human kingdom, and even the most elite armies could only be defeated under their madness, causing countless civilians to suffer.

However, how could the noble knights sit idly by and watch all this, the knights scattered all over the country stepped forward in a critical moment, they put aside the distinction between home and country, helped the armies of various countries resist the monsters, and exchanged blood for the lives of hundreds of people.

However, the thousands of years of accumulation of the White Jade Kingdom were almost squandered in this war that swept the world. Nowadays, there is no white jade kingdom in this world, and there is only a city-state known as the relic.

At first, the knights still stubbornly clinged to the beliefs of their ancestors, but they soon realized that the situation in the world was different now, and they could not even survive in this dangerous world without the existence of sophisticated force.

The knights performed a sacrifice and begged the ancestors to forgive them for their great rebellion. It is said that on that day, countless gray-haired old knights took to the streets, and they could not contain their grief, and many even wept bitterly until they fainted.

Soon, the traditional way of testing was simplified, and some of the less important steps were removed, making the whole process less ...... Harsh. But the knights were reluctant to abandon the old traditions, and they always told the new cadets over and over again that even if they were not officially knighted, they must not forget the creed that the knights had followed for generations. They even made a number of strict rules to prevent anyone from breaking those sacred oaths.

Thus, the wild attendant was born.
