Chapter 64: The Four Knights
The sword wind howled.
The hem of Lorel's dress was scraped and flipped back.
Colorful light illuminated her face.
Just as Dolores burst in front of her, Lorel's form disappeared as mysteriously as before.
"Aha, it's your style!"
Dolores' feet paused on the ground, circumventing a semicircle, and his hands were lowered, bringing the rainbow sword to his side.
Then, like a sharp arrow that suddenly bounced out of the ground, it stabbed diagonally into the air.
While!
In the night sky, even though there was no half figure in sight, a crisp firelight sounded.
The rainbow arcs open, and Dolores falls to the ground.
Immediately after that, it stabbed upwards diagonally again.
While!
Metal hits hard.
Slice through a circular wave of air.
"Because you're so cautious, you're going to hide yourself as soon as you want to be the first to do it, and you're going to plan every step you take."
The corners of Dolores' mouth rose as he attacked with incredible speed and angle.
In the moonlight, she could only be seen alone.
It was as if Dolores was fighting the air.
It's just that the firelight that bursts out from the sky from time to time and the waves of qi that swing when the swords clash showβ
The fierceness of the battle.
Even if she couldn't see the other party, Dolores keenly captured Lorel's position.
"Dolores."
Gail's voice rang in Robin's ears.
"One of the Four Knights of the Kingdom, known as Dolores, the Rainbow Knight, is the captain of the current King's personal guard."
"Huh?"
There was a slight surprise in Robin's eyes.
He had imagined countless times what the last of the Four Horsemen of the Kingdom would be.
Maybe it's the guardian of the kingdom's borders like Rosalind.
Maybe it's like Carlo and Lorel, the attendants of some archduke.
Maybe it's a powerful general on the battlefield.
Maybe it's an old earl who doesn't care about the world.
I didn't expect it to be the king's personal guard.
Robin chuckled faintly.
However, this is also reasonable, as the supreme head of a country, how can His Majesty the King not have a powerful person around him to protect the safety?
Only in this way can a relationship of checks and balances be formed in Haoyue City.
Calista is flanked by Arce the Wind Weeper.
The king had Dolores on his side.
Putting aside the relationship between politics and interests, a clear balance can be formed only by simply calculating the use of force and having each other's trump cards in hand.
After all, in the history of the kingdom, there have been many assassinations.
"However, Lord Dolores and Master Arce have completely different personalities."
Gale continued.
"Mistress Arce is like a bow hidden in the night, silent and secretive, you never realize her presence, but she is powerful and loyal, and can snipe at anyone with bad intentions who want to invade the temple.
So Master Calista never feared for her own safety. β
Robin remembered what Big Arce had looked like and nodded approvingly.
Dolores is the opposite, she has her own glory and goals. Even the king's security and the duties of the captain of the guard were of little importance to her. β
Gail's gaze glanced at Dolores, who was wrapped in rainbow light in the distance, "The Rainbow Knight was born in one of the four great families of Bright Moon City, and has held the title of baron since birth.
What makes everyone even more amazed and jealous is that she has been a genius in martial arts since she was a child.
At the age of only 4, he was personally taught by Sharon Davide, the first knight of the kingdom at that time.
At the age of 12, he was chosen as the King's Guard, and at the age of 16, he broke through the prison realm and obtained the title of Rainbow Knight.
If it weren't for the other three knights, Dolores would now be the first knight of the kingdom.
In the knights of the kings of the former king Saviara, there were four knights of the kingdom and famous generals such as Olivia and Shalom, and today, it is an invincible team that can conquer the world with it. β
Gale said this, a strange smile appeared on his face.
"However, this is only from the perspective of combat power. In fact, the four knights of the kingdom are actually incompatible. β
"Dolores, the rainbow knight, who steals the limelight everywhere and does not allow anyone to share the glory of knighthood with him; Carlo, a suave and careless Blue Lagoon knight; the calm and sophisticated and at the same time resolute Thunder Knight Rosalind; and the Lonely Moon Knight Lorel, who is so strict with herself and others that she is almost terrifying, and even described as rigid and inflexible, in the final analysis, putting them together is a war full of gunpowder. β
"Dolores wants to be the first in everything, has a strong sense of self-esteem, and the biggest opponent in her life is Rosalind. Thunder Knight is a commoner, and the difference between the identities of the two people is very different.
But in terms of ability, Rosalind is on par with Dolores everywhere, and even in Saviara's opinion, Rosalind is the head of the Four Horsemen in her mind. β
As for the Lone Moon Knight Rorel, her strict and rigid personality is incompatible with the other three knights, Carlo does not want to be restrained, and the two often clash. And Dolores couldn't stand Lorel's fingers at her.
These people are the type who will fight after not long together. β
Robin nodded, and under Gail's explanation, he had a relatively clear understanding of the four knights of the kingdom.
"What Dolores pursues is the only gloryβ
The first knight of the kingdom.
Even in the King's Guard, she would never allow others to surpass her.
So, even though she has been praised as a genius by everyone since she was a child, she is hardworking and diligent than everyone else. β
Gail looked at Dolores with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
It was as if in the moonlight, I saw the scene of the Rainbow Knight practicing his sword alone on the training ground.
In her mind, another shadow appeared that was similarly similar and striving.
People who are talented but work harder than others are really envious and have to be convinced.
"That's why you said that neither the king's safety nor the duties of the captain of the guard were of any importance to her." Robin frowned.
That's why this guy, the captain of the personal guard known as the Rainbow Knight, is here.
Soβ
He looked up and looked at the King's Castle in the distance with some concern.
Is Rainbow Knight safe after she left His Majesty?
"However, with the strong self-esteem of the Rainbow Knight, who will not allow anyone to trample on, His Majesty's safety is guaranteed." Gale laughed, and said word by wordβ
"Because, she will never allow any stain on her life."
When Robin heard this, he finally understood.
It's like a top student who has always taken the first place in his grade and does not allow himself to appear second in the exam.
It is because of this self-esteem that Dolores has made an independent move to get here.
Because she believes that His Majesty the King is now safe.
"Gail."
Robin suddenly remembered something and looked up at Gail.
"You just said that the Rainbow Knight's self-esteem has ensured the king's safety, right?"
"Yes, Lord Robin."
"So......" Robin held his chin with his hand and his eyes lit up, "Sixteen years ago, with such a powerful personal guard, how could the first king Saviara still be assassinated?" β
