Chapter 33: The Knight
"Really, your sword can be considered the strongest in the modern era. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
A hand was placed on Su Mo's shoulder, and Perseus said without knowing whether to sigh or sigh.
"If you want to hear the truth, I don't think there is anyone in this world who can surpass me from ancient times to the present."
This is not a conceited discourse.
"Yes...... That's really glorious......."
The ancient Western sword slid limply to the ground, making a crisp sound, and then vanished as a point of light.
Perseus's slender body also trembled violently, and the whole person almost slipped to the ground - but before that, Su Mo stretched out a hand and lifted him.
"Thanks, Godslayer—ah, no........ Su Mo. ”
Perseus smiled all the time, then raised his eyes, which had begun to fade, to look at the starry sky.
"Veles Rana...... He must have felt the same way when he was defeated......"
"What's the mood?"
"Not bad."
Then the ancient hero's body, with a huge wound, slowly turned into a colored point of light, just like his previous sword.
"Just one blow to ......."
Liliana, who was watching from the sidelines, covered her mouth and looked at Su Mo with strange eyes: "It's really strong......."
Whether it was in the battle with the Marquis of Woban, or in the battle with Perseus, even Athena .......
Liliana sighed, and at the same time, she couldn't help but think of what her maid Karen had said not long ago, and remembered how he saved her life from the Marquis of Woban, biting her lip, and having made a decision in her heart.
At the same time, Su Mo looked at his palm suspiciously.
"Didn't receive Perseus's powers, didn't you see Pandora, did you?"
Although he didn't care about this kind of thing, he had to pay attention to the obvious anomaly: "This is what Qingzi told me, the plan of happy and worry-free?" ”
I can almost only think of what Aoko told him, and Le Wuwu wanted him to stimulate his plan to further merge the will of destruction by killing the god of disobedience to grab divine power.
But the problem is that he doesn't feel the power of God entering his body now.
"What went wrong?"
Frowning, he called Liliana, who seemed to be still pondering something, to lead the way home.
And he naturally didn't know that the divine power of Perseus that he had killed at this time had been sent into Athena's body by a white bird that he would definitely feel very familiar with if he saw it.
But she was still immersed in a stupor, only frowning slightly, and then a pure and serene smile appeared on her face that no one had ever seen before.
.......................................
It was early in the morning when we got back to the villa.
Although both Su Mo and Liliana really acted very fast, after all, it was in the tourist resort of Naples, and Su Mo, who was a little interested, visited many places under the guidance of Liliana, and even went to Mount Vesuvius in the southeast of Naples to have a look.
It's also idle.
Then when Su Mo was about to enter the door, Liliana suddenly stopped him.
"King!"
"Well, I told you before, in fact, just call me Su Mo, Wang or something sounds really awkward."
Then before Su Mo could continue, Liliana fell to her knees with an amazing momentum!
"What are you doing?!"
Su Mo was startled.
"Liliana Kranichal, Knight of the Bronze and Black Cross, henceforth you will be Lord of my sword, and I wish to offer you unrivaled and unbetrayed loyalty! Can you accept my vows? ”
Half-kneeling, she raised her head, her eyes as serious as ever, a little nervous and hopeful.
"Why is this all of a sudden?"
Su Mo frowned, a little puzzled, because this was something that Erica, who claimed to be a knight, had never actually done - Su Mo could also understand, after all, Erica Blontree was a very cunning woman, and such a person would never easily give everything to her.
But Liliana is different, her personality is too upright and serious, and even if she had been loyal to Woban before, it was only an order of the Bronze Black Cross and not her own wishes, so the oath of allegiance she made out of her own thoughts carried the same seriousness and seriousness.
So Su Mo didn't understand why she was like this all of a sudden.
However, Liliana was quick to answer: "I should have given my loyalty in return for your generosity in saving the mortal Jedi from the attack of the Marquis of Woban!" But because of the Bronze Black Cross, I even thought that I could rival Erica's Bronze Black Cross by swearing allegiance to another king—but now I have finally figured out that you are the only one worthy of my Liliana Clanichar! ”
'Wow, is it still the old routine of heroes saving beauty?!' ’
Su Mo was surprised, and then looked at Liliana who was still half-kneeling on the ground.
This is a knight with a serious personality, and although she is not very strong, she does have what a knight should have.
Except for being a little stupid, although it has nothing to do with whether or not you are a knight.
And in addition to being a knight, she is also a girl. In the face of a girl who has made up her mind to make such a serious and important decision, Su Mo, as a man, should also make her own response.
So he said in a serious tone, "Liliana Kranichal, give me your sword." ”
"Yes!!"
Realizing something, Liliana's tone was filled with irrepressible ecstasy, and she pulled out her beloved "sword" from the magic circle, the Silver Giant, which was actually more like a long-bodied saber.
"I haven't memorized any of the eight virtues of knighthood, but I think you should know them very well and keep them in mind."
Su Mo thought back to the knight's etiquette, and then embarrassedly found that he was stuck in the first item - but it didn't matter, he was thick-skinned anyway.......
As long as the meaning of the ceremony is reached, it will be fine.
He flattened the blade of his sword and pressed it lightly against Liliana's right shoulder.
"Then from now on, you will be my knight."
After saying that, Su Mo handed the sword back to Liliana, who stood up.
"My master, I will be your sword, faithfully protecting you, always following you!"
This is a knight's pious oath.
"I believe, but I still think it's better for us to get along normally, like friends. It would be boring to really follow etiquette as the knights and lords of the Middle Ages did. ”
Su Mo smiled, raised his right hand to summon the magic of countless lives, and then shaped it into a lifelike pocket lily.
"Well, you're a lot like this flower."
As he spoke, he gently pinched the little lily behind Liliana's ear.
"W-thr-wr-wr-thr-wr-h-
The tips of Liliana's ears were red, and her face was full of confusion.
"It's a good thing, take it with you all the time, it will slowly moisturize your body."
"Think of it as my gift."
