Chapter Twenty-Three: Rumors of a Female Knight
Fifteen days passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the duel had arrived.
During the time that Felik was away from training, the news that he was going to duel with the Imperial Knight spread like a fire, and in the blink of an eye, it spread throughout the town.
The duel even turned the streets into a crowd of people at the festival, and ordinary people poured into the streets to watch the grand duel, and some even put down their work to watch it.
After all, one of the two people who want to duel is a famous Imperial Knight, and the other is a young adventurer who has defeated the mutant Minotaur by himself not long ago.
This is not only a duel between the two, but also a duel between Magson and the imperial capital.
The imperial capital is the center of the empire, and Megson is only a small town on the border of the empire, but the degree of prosperity does not represent the quality of a place, and sometimes, it is not the environment that determines the quality of the region, but the people.
And this time, the adventurers of McGhisson face off against the knights of the imperial capital, which is a unique extraordinary situation, which is not only exciting and exciting, but also enough to make people's blood boil!
The venue for the duel is set up in the central square, which is very empty, and it is best for dueling, and the central square is the traditional duel site of Macgson, almost everyone who wants to duel will choose to face each other in the central square, which can be seen from a proverb of Maggson -
If you want to win the hearts of beauties, you'll have to beat your rivals in the central square.
Jonah stood in the middle of the square, his hands folded over his chest, his armor on, his brow furrowed, and he looked haughtily and triumphantly at the bustling crowd around him.
The dozens of retinues brought by Jonah and Buddy were also standing on the outskirts of the square, in their eyes, this duel was nothing more than a farce, as a subordinate, they knew very well the strength of their superiors, and each of them knew that an ordinary adventurer could not defeat Jonah, if an adventurer could defeat the Imperial Knight, that
"I heard that Felik is going to have a life-and-death duel with the Imperial Knights!"
"It seems to be true! The princess has come to be a notary. ”
"Who do you think will win?"
"Well...... I can't tell. Although Felik is very powerful, the other party is an imperial knight after all. ”
Everyone was talking about it, although everyone admired Felik more than the Imperial Knights, but Felik had saved the town, and he was also McGson's people, and the inhabitants of Maggson had no reason to elbow out.
And the Imperial Knights are a very special existence, they have always been representatives of noble character and great power, if you ask a boy, who would the prince and the Imperial Knight prefer, nine out of nine answers are Imperial Knights.
It was the dream of all boys, like the brave man in a fairy tale who took back the princess from the devil.
The adoring gaze of the people around him was extremely useful, and it was wonderful to defeat his opponent in such a situation.
That guy will collapse if he loses, hehe, Jonah thought.
At this moment, Buddy, who was not far away, pushed away the crowd and walked to the center of the square, approaching his partner, his expression a little solemn.
"What's the matter, Buddy, your face is so ugly?"
"Jonah, have you heard? The kid had defeated the Minotaur a few days earlier and saved the town. ”
"What's so surprising about this, it's just a low-level demonic beast, come and kill a few, if he defeats the commander-level demon, I will still look at him squarely, but what he defeated is just an ordinary demonic beast, do you want me to really treat him as an evenly matched opponent?" Jonah was dismissive.
"I heard it's a mutant."
"Mutants?" Jonah was a little more serious: "To what extent?" ”
If it's a mutant, you have to listen carefully, mutants are not uncommon, most of them can only be regarded as slightly stronger than their peers, but this does not mean that they can underestimate mutants, some mutants can even transcend the innate shackles of the race, and become a high-level existence far beyond ordinary peers.
If that dead fisheye defeated a very powerful mutant, then Jonah was going to get serious.
"I don't know." Buddy replied.
"I don't know, even if I don't know, it shouldn't be so strong, how can this kind of border town give birth to a strong person." Jonah said.
He believed in his own judgment, the other party's unconfident eyes when the duel was set at that time was definitely not pretended, and it was estimated that the defeated mutant Dingtian was only at the vanguard level.
Alyssa sat on the specially set up judge's bench next to her, her two faint delicate eyebrows twisted slightly, and her expression was slightly nervous.
Why hasn't Felik come yet? Obviously it was almost the appointed time, Alyssa thought silently in her heart, she glanced at Walter next to her, expressionless on the other side, and couldn't see the slightest inner thoughts.
Alyssa looked at the female knight's side face, as if remembering a rumor, a rumor that had been circulating in the royal city a few years ago.
There was once a woman who honed herself in order to become a powerful knight, and finally fulfilled her wish, transcending the limitations of physiology with the weak flesh of a woman, gaining great strength and becoming an imperial knight.
With this power, she became famous, and even got the opportunity to enter the royal city to participate in the election of the Great Prince Guardian.
With her powerful swordsmanship, she fought more than a dozen battles and finally defeated all her opponents, becoming the first female guardian of the royal family in all history in a hundred years.
But strangely, the day before she was canonized, she rejected this supreme glory. After that, the knightess left the royal city and headed for the border town of MacGson.
The protagonist of the story, an unknown female knight and Alyssa's brother, once asked the other if this was true, but the answer was: How is that possible? If such a big thing happened, then why didn't even the knight's name appear in the story?
Later, Alyssa thought about it carefully, and it was probably just a folk rumor.
"Princess, are you worried about Felik?" Walter beside him suddenly spoke.
"Ahh Alyssa was taken aback: "Yes...... Yes, not true! No! ”
Looking at the other party's funny reaction, Walter smiled slightly: "The princess is really an interesting person." ”
Alyssa smiled awkwardly and asked instead, "I heard that you were once a knight of the Empire, did you?" ”
"Yes, and it still is."
It's really an imperial knight, and an imperial knight is actually a guild leader in a guild in a border town, what a condescension!
"Why did you come here to be the leader of the Adventurers' Guild?"
