The young knight rushed into the tent in a bit of a panic, and before he even had time to look up at Clara behind the wooden table, he knelt directly on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "It's a big deal, Your Highness!" We were ambushed in the dense forest near the Sharp-Beaked Swamp. Lady Catherine, the Knight Captain of our Seventeenth Team, has been beheaded! ”

"What's your name? Youngster. Catherine's voice sounded calm, and she did not take away her anger at the young knight who was ineffective in battle.

"My name is Alma, Your Highness!" Alma said gratefully. Only then did he dare to raise his head and glance at Clara, the supreme leader of the black-armored knights known for their bloodthirstiness. Sitting behind the wooden table, Clara looked a little tired and old, but her smile was gentle.

"Who is the enemy? Alma. ”

"It's more than a dozen powerful Busen people, we ...... We have no power to resist! Alma said in shame.

"Oh-" Clara nodded, not making any gestures.

Alma felt it was time to leave, and with both hands he placed the rough map on the wooden table in front of Clara, which marked the location of their attack.

As she turned to walk out of the tent, Alma had been annoyed by her poor performance, perhaps leaving a bad impression on the esteemed princess. So, Alma searched in his mind and remembered a few things worth reporting.

With some hesitation, Alma knelt down on one knee and said again: "Your Highness, there are still a few episodes on the battlefield, and I think it is necessary for you to know a thing or two. ”

"Speak up, Alma, I'm interested in every detail."

"Yes!" Alma, who was encouraged, said with some encouragement: "As I was fighting, I heard some syllables of 'resistance,' and I was sure that some of the dastardly sneak attackers were well versed in human language. ”

"Rebels? It's kind of interesting. Clara muttered.

"Another thing, when we were attacked, a young woman appeared in the enemy ranks, probably less than twenty years old!"

"What?!" Clara's mouth opened wide in surprise. "You're a renegade in the ranks of the human race? They intend to be in the company of the beast?! ”

"No, I guess not. There was something strange about the woman, not like we usually see, she had long dark hair and deep eyes......" Alma struggled to recall. "In short, I don't look like any of the great people I've ever seen who are busy with production or like you, but more like an outsider!"

"Outsiders? Outsider ......" Clara was stunned and muttered softly.

Alma sincerely hoped that she had come up with some useful information.

"Outsiders!" Clara exclaimed excitedly.

For a moment, her mind went back to that morning many years ago: her mother, Mia, her eldest sister, Ina, herself, and some old-fashioned scholars trying to send a message to some world with the dusty spaceship. She had long forgotten the content, but she remembered Mia's excitement at the time, and her words—in the near future, she would have more simple people, hundreds of millions......

Clara eagerly opened the map Alma had presented, touching the new red dot like a ripe, bright red tempting berry that tickled at her.

Her breath was rapid.

Alma guessed that she had provided a valuable piece of information, but Her Royal Highness's exaggerated reaction made him nervous for no reason, and sweat oozed from his forehead and palms.

"Come here, Alma!" Clara commanded loudly.

Alma's body shuddered and trembled as she walked forward.

"The news you provide is valuable, Alma! I want to reward you for your attentiveness and loyalty! Clara exhaled and smiled warmly.

Only then did Alma relax, crawling a few steps forward.

"I accept you as the new Knight Captain of the Seventeenth Team!" Clara pulled a square box from the table. "Let's do the ordination ceremony now!"

Clara was a little puzzled, he was still very young, both in combat power and experience, he was far inferior to other knights, and even some low-level knights who were also young were not as good as ......

But...... Thinking that Her Royal Highness the princess personally appointed it, and even personally presided over her own ordination ceremony, Clara did not hesitate any longer and plucked up the courage to walk up.

"Relax, my child, be brave enough to accept your fate!" Clara dipped her thumb in the box and lightly wiped Alma's forehead a few times.

Alma had heard such a ceremony, and it was the greatest honor of a knight. He smelled a floral-like scent that grew stronger and stronger as time passed......

Alma felt like she was about to suffocate, and he opened his mouth to breathe, but the strong smell poured in. He had to choke himself by the neck.

Chaotic scenes flashed through his mind, and all the memories he had experienced and engraved in the depths of his mind were unearthed: accidentally poking his companion blind in the eye during a fight, following Tim to peek at the woman he loved in the bath, being trampled on the soles of his feet by a tall man, and trembling and poking through the heart of a man......

But more than that, it was the series of massacres and hunting operations he carried out after joining the knights' ranks, and the wailing voices and bloody pictures all stimulated his sensitive nerves......

Clara was amazed at how painful the young man could be. She placed her palm on his forehead expectantly, feeling his thoughts with all her heart.

Although Clara didn't have the opportunity to experience what Alma had been through, and she couldn't see the images that flashed through his mind, she felt all of Alma's love, hate, and hatred.

Like peeling off layers of clothes that wrapped her beautiful carcass, the nervous, hateful, hungry, desperate, and exhilarating thoughts were imprinted more and more clearly in Clara's mind, and she couldn't help but sway, as if she had seen herself when she was young.

"This is the best kid I've ever seen!" Clara muttered softly.

She couldn't help but pour her pity and love into Alma's mind through the palm of her hand, and Zheng did not lean back in her chair weakly until a quarter of an hour later.

Alma had calmed down from her initial trembling and wailing, and had regained her usual calm.

He didn't know what was going on, he groped around his head, face, and body a few times, then looked at Clara, startled by her weak appearance.

"Your Highness!" Alma walked up anxiously, taking her palm in one hand and supporting her in the other, so that she could sit upright in her chair.

It wasn't until the end of the service that Alma realized how reckless she had been, and she casually touched Her Highness's body.

Apologetically, Alba fell to his knees again. But now, he didn't have the same sincere fear as he had just met Clara. Instead, it was replaced by a feeling of complete loyalty and love.

He believed that Her Royal Highness could feel his feelings, which were no less than his feelings for his parents, whose blood was thicker than water.

Indeed, Clara was looking at him with a smile and said softly, "Alma, my child, the new Knight Captain. ”

"Please, Your Highness!" Alma responded eagerly.

"Bring me that woman, that strange-looking outsider. Also, if it's not necessary, it's better not to publicize it! ”

"Yes!" Alma raised her arm firmly and exited the humble but nostalgic tent.

Without much effort, a sturdy wildebeest, at Alma's constant urging, galloped away in the direction of the sharp-beaked swamp.
