Life was bitter for Alvin. Although in the eyes of many people, he is already the "pride of the sky".

Isn't it? From commoners to nobles.

Just ten years ago, people who could leapfrog from commoners to nobles on their own roamed the entire White City, and I am afraid that there would not be a single one in fifty years.

This is normal. The basic advanced route of the nobles, the first level is the knight. If you become a knight, you will have a fortune and a land, and then you can be promoted to a baron, a count, or a duke...... And the war horse and knight's armor alone are enough for ninety-five percent of the family.

Factoring in the cost of knight training, it will be even more unbearable.

Even if you have enough money, for example, if you are a businessman, you still can't. Because in peacetime, the nobles at the top are eager to raise fewer people, even if you fully meet the standards of knights, you still can't.

Now, although the mouth is a little more open during the war, the requirements for knights are also higher. These days, you just have a set of knight equipment, and you can't get some knight training, you have to be really good at fighting.

Alvin crossed all the criteria. However, is it possible to cross all the standards, just to meet another ordinary life?

If it was someone else, he might be satisfied, but he was Alwin, a member of the Knights of the Silver Moon who had charged with Gray, if not officially.

When a person has stood on the top of glory, it is impossible for him to forget the blood boiling, and when a person has received the light of the holy light, it is impossible for him to forget the holiness in the white expanse, and it is impossible to forget the feeling of endless power surging in the body.

To be honest, even if he had trained for so many years, he actually couldn't compete with himself who had received the Great Blessing Technique.

The most painful thing in life is to go all the way down and lose its glory. Although it was only a coincidence of life, Alvin was indeed in this state.

......

After officially playing for Irene, for the first month, he went to the training ground every day to help Hall train new recruits.

"Hey, boy, I think you're really good. Do you really not want to switch allegiance to Miss Irene?, as long as you agree, I can tell Miss Irene to let you take my place. After all, I don't think anyone is better suited than you. ”

In the face of Halls's appreciation, Alvin could only bow his head helplessly.

Despite his hard life and his insincere smiles, he still worked hard and got along well with everyone.

The sun rises and sets, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, a new set of knight equipment is placed in front of Alwin.

A set of thirty-eight pieces, including helmets, cuirass, back armor, shoulder armor, leg guards, waist skirts, and even waistcoats, spears, swords, daggers, and light crossbows, contains everything a heavily armored knight needs.

The silver armor looked new, but the face was full of ancient runes, inlaid with wonderful patterns, radiating brilliant light in the sun.

There seemed to be some kind of untouchable force flowing on the surface, something Alvin had never seen before. The moment he saw this armor, all his attention was attracted.

"Do you like it?" said Hall softly, "I measured it for you last time." ”

What knight doesn't like armor?

"Hello...... Like. Alvin hesitated and asked, "Is this for me?"

"Yes, magic armor. Erin, who was standing next to the armor, smiled and said, "White City is going to have a new elite knight army, composed of knights equipped with magic armor. Hall offered me that you be in charge, and I agreed. ”

"New Knights...... What's your name?" asked Alwin, a little dazed.

"Hmm......" Irene smiled and replied, "Knights of the Silver Moon Fifth Division." ”

"Knights of the Silver Moon Fifth Division?" Alwyn was shocked.

"Yes, the Fifth Detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon. Irene said calmly, "If anyone is willing to carry on Gray's ambition, I will support it." I've written to Rich and Jones about the name, and they've agreed. At the same time, they also said that they would like to meet you if they have the opportunity. Especially Jones. ”

"Jones......" Alvin was already a little excited and didn't know what to say, "Is he okay? I heard that the Blood Clan grows slowly, is he still the same as before?"

Nodding, Ireen replied, "I've grown a little taller, but I still look like a child." ”

Hesitating, Alvin stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and then raised his head and respectfully said to Irene, "I swear that I will follow any of your orders without violating my oath to the regimental commander." Please accept me, not entirely allegiance. ”

"You don't need to be like that. Erin hurriedly helped Alvin up: "In fact, the equipment of the fifth detachment of the Silver Moon Knights will all be provided by Jones. Although I originally planned to do it, he proposed it, and I agreed. After all...... I probably won't be able to give a good outfit. Although he has tried his best to lower the price, I still can't afford to buy much. If you ask for the best, it would be a very exaggerated fee. Maybe on the entire continent, only Jones in our camp can afford to come out. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Alvin said seriously, "Anyway, thank you." The oath I just made is still valid. ”

Looking at Alvin for a while, Irene smiled and replied, "Thank you." ”

Are Jones and Alvin closer than Jones and Irene?

That, of course, is impossible. So, this equipment, Jones is undoubtedly for Irene, not for Elwin. It's just another way of saying it.

After a pause, Irene continued, "Someone will come over this afternoon, and he will be responsible for assisting you in forming and training the fifth team. ”

"Who could it be? Could it be someone I know?" Alvin asked.

"I don't know, maybe it's not human. Irene smiled.

In any case, the turning point in Elwin's fate seemed to have come at once.

As soon as Ireen was gone, Alvin excitedly began to fiddle with his armor. The recruits in the camp all gathered around him.

"Wow! This is magic equipment? It's so handsome! It's the first time I've seen it!"

"How do I use this thing?"

"I've heard that there is a password, and shouting the password can activate the magic inside. ”

"What about the password?"

"Uh...... I don't know. Alwin's brows furrowed: "Do you have to find out the password yourself?"

"I know the password. Halls, who was standing aside, said coldly.

All of a sudden, all eyes turned away from Alwyn, who was in armor, and looked at Halls.

However, Hall pursed his lips and said, "I can't tell you, though. Since I can't let you use it yet, I'll have to wait for the helper to come in the afternoon. ”

"Why?" Alvin asked.

"Because magic equipment has to be used many times, after it is used, it must be sent back to reinject magic, or replace the magic stone, each time is very precious. ”

"Hmm......" The onlookers looked very disappointed.

"I can show you mine, though. Hall drew the long sword at his waist, and then pointed to the scarecrow in the distance that was used to practice cavalry charges: "See." ”

All the soldiers looked towards the scarecrow.

"Wind Blade!" Hals shouted, waving his sword heavily. Suddenly, a wind blade struck out from the tip of the sword, slid over a distance of nearly fifty meters, and directly cut the scarecrow open.

"Wow——!" The onlookers were stunned and cheered one by one.

"That's amazing!"

"It's like a magician!"

"How do I get magic equipment?"

Alvin was stunned as well.

Showing the sword in his hand, Hall said, "This is an old style of mine." It can be used three times in total, and this time it is just gone. And I just received a new magic sword. Hahahaha. You can get it too, and it's easy. As long as you're good enough to become an important general, or join Miss Irene's Knights of the Guard, then you can get it. Of course, joining Elwin's Fifth Detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon can also be obtained, and even better. ”

All of a sudden, the recruits looked at Alwyn with a lot of eagerness.

Of course, the most excited person is Alwin, who can't wait to get to work. But he'll have to wait for the person in charge of assisting to arrive.

"Did the person in charge of assisting say what time it would be in the afternoon?"

"I don't know, I didn't say. But if you arrive in the afternoon, you will definitely arrive. I mean, yes. ”

"Is he going to the camp, or to the castle, or to some other place? I want to go and wait for him. ”

"I don't know, and I didn't say it. Just say it will come. ”

Well, I don't know what to do, and the anxious Alvin is helpless.

After thinking about it, he decided to put on his armor and wait at the entrance of the main road of the White City. Because the phrase "arrive in the afternoon" sounds, the most likely is to go to the White City.

Well, it sounds silly, but you should understand the sudden extraordinary heart of an ordinary knight, even to see the other person a minute earlier, or even a second, he is willing to do anything.

As a result, there was an extra knight in luxurious armor on the bridge outside the White City. He stood on the turf by the bridge and repeatedly practiced what he should say and salute when he saw the other person.

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Alvin Schmidt, you can call me Alwin. ”

"Hello, please call me Alwin. ”

"Hello, thank you to the Light for meeting me, my name is Elwin. ”

"Hello, I'm the new Captain of the Fifth Detachment of the Silver Moon Knights, Elwin!"

From standing on the ground and saluting to riding on a horse, Alvin practiced it repeatedly, and even took out his notebook and began to take notes in earnest.

In this toss, there were more onlookers than passers-by entering the city.

"Mom, what is that big brother doing?" asked a child, pointing to Alwin.

His mother replied, "Mom doesn't know, maybe a new play is being rehearsed." But this armor looks really beautiful. ”

And so on, and so on, and so on, until the sun went down, and that person didn't show up. Alvin hadn't eaten his lunch yet, and his stomach was growling with hunger.

During this period, he also went back and forth between the camp and the castle twice, and only after making sure that the other party did not go directly to other places did he continue to wait at the bridge.

The crowd of onlookers scattered in all directions, and he was left alone at the bridgehead, throwing stones into the river, repeating the preset line in his mouth: "Hello, my name is Alwin...... I am the captain of the fifth detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon. Just took office, please advise ......"

Glancing at the last remaining ray of sunshine in the west, he muttered quietly, "Is there something going on on the road that can't come?" or ...... Forgotten? It shouldn't be possible, right?"

Looking at the sparkling river, Alvin fell silent.

Glancing to the west again, Alvin simply lay down on the lawn in armor, closed his eyes and said silently again, "Hello, I'm Alwin." ”

"Hello, I'm Simon. A voice rang in his head.

Simon ...... Which Simon? Simon...... Simon, Simon!" Alwyn was startled and quickly flipped to his feet.

Simon, dressed in a white robe and hooded, stood right behind him.

You don't know who Simon is?

Simon is the lich who destroyed Brutus Castle!

Gently pulling the felt hat down, Simon revealed his bare skull.

At this moment, in the evening, most of the people had already gone home, and there was almost no one by the bridge. The only exception was a child standing in the distance who saw Simon's bare skull and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

Alvin craned his neck and asked in a low voice, "Are you...... Simon?"

"Yes, I'm Simon. Simon repeated.

"Simon the Slayer? Is it Simon the Slayer?"

"Huh, you know me?"

"Of course, I was there at the time of the Battle of Salted Fish Harbor, and I sneaked out at that time. And I memorized the names and titles of every official member of the Knights of the Silver Moon. Alvin quickly straightened up, slammed his breastplate, and saluted.

"Uh...... To be honest, I don't even remember it. So much, so tired. Who's going to remember the name of a bunch of bones?" Simon chuckled, "But anyway, you can remember my title, which makes me feel more favorable about you." Very good, little one, you will benefit from this. ”

"Are you the one who was sent to help me form the Fifth Detachment?" asked Alwin.

"Yes, that's me. To be precise, Jones wanted to form a fifth team, he was willing to give all the equipment, but he needed Rich's approval, and he was too short of men to send extra manpower. So, the two of them discussed, Jones out of the equipment, Richie out of me. So, here I am. Of course, the main reason is that the Northland is so boring. It's a confrontation every day, but it can't be fought. ”

"So...... Where do we start?"

"Uh...... You ask me? I want to ask you. I thought you would have a full package ready for me. What, aren't you prepared?"

Suddenly, both sides stared at each other, and each other was stunned.
