・"Stingy!" Eve heard that Rum would not give him a knight, so she immediately argued with him, and the result naturally ended in a great victory for the Count of Rum. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Eve rushed out of the door in indignation, and on the first day of the Order's founding, she encountered her first disaster - the Knights of Eveluna, which had no members except the Grand Master himself!

Eve was trying to think about how to expand his knights, at the moment, all he could think of was those wandering knights, but his behavior at the award ceremony was very rude, and it was impossible to apologize in a low voice now, it was estimated that it would be difficult for them to put down their loyalty to themselves.

Eve thought about it, but couldn't think of a good way, and angrily kicked a gravel on the ground, which arced in the air and smashed head-on at Butler Gray, who was walking towards the Earl of Rum's room. Butler Gray hurriedly dodged the stone that could break his appearance, and said with a sigh of relief: "Oh, Miss Eve, it was not a knight who murdered the old man. ”

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Gray, I didn't notice you. Eve saw that she had almost injured Butler Gray, and quickly apologized. "You're not hurt, are you? Mr. Gray, do you want me to help you find Mr. Rich?"

"No, Miss Eve, I'm not hurt, at least my flesh isn't hurt. Gray quipped. "As for the wounds in my heart, that old fellow Richie can't heal me. ”

Eve lowered her head shyly, to her, Butler Gray was more like a father, and he disciplined herself the most since she was a child, and she always unconsciously became restrained in front of him.

"Hehe, I guess it's because Lord Rum didn't give you enough support as you think?" Gray can probably guess why Eve is angry, almost everyone, including the Earl of Rum, is not very concerned about the Knights, after all, there is a reason why this system was abolished, not to mention, the existing Knights are all ancient organizations that have not died out in the first place, and have historical accumulation, but they have not been corrected. There are very few people who are hot-headed to do such stupid things when it comes to the actual formation of a new Knights, except Eve

"You have to understand the situation of Lord Rum, Miss Eve, as the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the Kingdom, he is one of the most powerful men in Svadia at the time when King Hans himself led his troops against the invasion of Kugit, and it is impossible for him to gather back the knights who have been sent to the front in order to form his own knights, or to spend too many resources on raising his own private army. Gray explained, knowing in his heart that Eve was a sane person, and that she was not as pushy as she seemed. "If Mistress Rum does that, he will not only put himself in injustice, but will also make the situation, which has been so difficult to stabilize, become turbulent again. ”

Eve was a little short of breath, she understood what Gray said, she knew that her father had his own troubles, and she just worried about what to do.

"I know, Gray, it's just that I've managed to form my own Knights, it's my dream!" she poured out her bitterness to Mr. Gray like a spoiled child. "I don't want it to be just an ornament, I want a real knight order! the kind of knight that can go into battle to kill the enemy and make achievements!"

"Haha, no one told you that the Knights were prepared for war. There have been various knightly orders in history, and not all of them were founded for war, and the famous Knights of Franka were founded for the purpose of poetry and music. Gray quipped. Of course, you can do the same. ”

"I don't want to! If that's the case, I'd rather die in battle!" Eve very decisively rejected Gray's offer, she couldn't imagine that scene.

"Hehe, even so, my young lady, when the Knights of Franka were first formed, they were in danger of being disbanded. Gray continued. "Because his father, like you, was a complete war maniac, he didn't want to see his heir waste his time playing the piano and saying he was in love. So they got into a lot of trouble, and the mentally weak members quit the Order one after another, and the Knights of Franka, which had only a dozen members, were left with three - the Captain, the Deputy Commander, and the Treasurer, who was beheaded because he was in debt, and if he lost the Order's protection, he would have to be beheaded. Gray couldn't help but laugh as he spoke. "It was a farce in history, and even now it seems comical. There was something else in Gray's talk. "But it was in such a dire situation that their leader, Baron Franka Rochebas, not only did not dissolve the Order, but also made it one of the most influential orders in Svadia at the time. ”

"Really, even if his father opposes him?" Eve was a little surprised, how could a nobleman who had not yet inherited the title succeed without his father's support?"

"Well, I don't know. Gray shrugged, saying he didn't know much about it. "Still, I'm at least sure there's something that gives him strength. ”

"What's that? Mr. Grey. Eve asked, feeling that she needed that kind of strength to help her right now.

"Responsibility is responsibility. Gray said earnestly. "Eve, before the formation of the Knights, it was just a thought on your mind, but when you hold this sword and wear this badge on your chest, it's not just a thought, it's up to you. With that, Gray left Eve, who seemed thoughtful, and walked towards the Earl of Rum's room.

"All in all, I can't get more from my father, alas. Although Eve didn't understand any big truth, she at least knew that she would definitely not receive more help.

"In that case, that's the only way to go. Although it did not help substantially, the story of the Knights of Franka still inspired me - no one stipulated that only standard knights could be members of the Order. Eve took a step and set off to find the most suitable deputy head of the regiment in her heart.

It didn't take long for Eve to arrive at the training ground, because almost all the soldiers were transferred to the front line, and it was rare to find her target without much effort.

"Slash, sweep, stab!" shouted a majestic voice, an old knight, his hair gray, but his body still looking strong, and even in full knight's armor, he did not exert any effort, and still moved freely. He was training a man who was also fully armoured, the only difference was that the man was wearing a helmet and couldn't see clearly. "No, the angle is wrong, you're going to cut it on the shoulder pads. ”

"It's too slow, your back is exposed!" the old knight relentlessly blamed the man for his mistakes. "You've taken an extra step, and if you're on the battlefield, you've already stumbled and become someone else's sword. He struck the man's thigh with a stick. "You're using too much force, you're going to kill people, not chop vegetables!" he noticed Eve coming towards them, and said to the man, "Rest for a while, and then continue." The man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the word "rest," and walked to the ground, and took off his helmet - it was a young girl, with beautiful short blond hair, trimmed to make it easier to wear the helmet, she had wheat-colored skin, she looked healthy and energetic, she fanned herself in the wind, hoping to bring some coolness, it was too hot in the helmet. "Hi Eve, ha...... Let me take a break. ”

"Sir Wright, you are too harsh. Seeing that the girl was tired like this, Eve said with some pity. "You've trained Vivi a lot more than I do. ”

Sir Wright looked at her angrily, and said, "Is it not because some little girl is always opportunistic? Sir Wright asked, and Eve responded with a grimace, and he could only shake his head helplessly. "What are you doing? Let me guess, it's the Order's business. ”

"Uh-huh, nothing fills you. Eve smiled mischievously, and then directly explained her intentions: "I would like to invite you to take up the position of deputy head of the Knights of Eveluna, Sir Wright, I need your help." Eve said very sincerely, Sir Wright was indeed the most suitable person for the position in her heart, not only because he was highly respected, but also because he was his own martial arts instructor, and Eve completed the cultivation of knightly martial arts under the guidance of Sir Wright.

"Well, is it an honour for me, shall I say?" said Sir Wright, looking a little surprised. "But, I'm sorry, Eve, I have sworn allegiance to your father, Lord Rum Falst, and though you are his rightful heir, I cannot swear allegiance to you unless you rightfully inherit his title. Wright explained.

"Oh yes, that's right. "Eve was disappointed, and it was true, it was impossible for her to make Sir Wright renounce her oath to her father and swear allegiance to herself, it would be dishonorable, and even more unrealistic.

"Hey, Eve, don't be discouraged, Wright can't be loyal to you, I can. Vivi spoke, wiping the sweat from her forehead and grinning.

"Well, of course, you're welcome, Vivi. Eve said with some hesitation. "However, in order to join the Knights, you must have a knighthood. ”

"Well, is that so, Wright?" she asked Sir Wright, puzzled, when she heard Eve say this.

Wright coughed a little embarrassed, and then said, "According to common sense, this is true, but in reality, it is not necessary for a member of the Order to be a knight or even a nobleman, because when your name is written in the register of the legitimate Order, you are considered a knight by default. As soon as he finished speaking, he added: "Of course, this is dishonorable, and I will not allow you to do it." ”

"I can still ...... like this," Eve automatically ignored the second half of Sir Wright's sentence, which made her turn her mind back to those who did not have knighthoods.

"What do you mean, can I join the Knights?" Vivi was a little confused, he didn't know if Wright was saying yes or no.

"I mean, I won't allow you to join the Order until you become a true knight. Sir Wright said firmly. "And as far as I can see, you're far from it. ”

"Well, speaking of which. Wei Wei picked up the iron sword in her hand and danced a few sword flowers on her hand. "I think I'm already far better than the average knight. ”

"Miss Vivien, where does your confidence come from?" said Sir Wright disdainfully. "Your riding skills are not good, the riding spear is also very bad, although the swordsmanship is still reasonable, but it is only a beginner path, the most important thing, your cultivation of 'knightly virtues' is completely unqualified, you are definitely not a qualified knight, not even a qualified squire, you are not ready. ”

"That's just your arrogant prejudice, bad old man! I'm ready to be a true knight!" replied Eve, not to be outdone.

"Oh, is it?" asked Sir Wright. "Well, in that case, I'll canonize you as a knight. Sir Wright said something that surprised Vivi.

“...... Really?" asked Vivi, uncertain, wondering if she had misheard.

"Now, of course. Sir Wright said with great certainty. "As long as you can recite the knight's manifesto. ”

Hearing Sir Wright's words, Eve's face immediately fell. “...... Do you have to memorize it? I thought you said a word, I said a word. ”

"That's usually the case, but it's different for you. Sir Wright had a look on his face that I had expected. "As long as you can recite the knightly declaration in its entirety, I will immediately canonize you as a knight. ”

Wei Wei opened her mouth and stammered: "Swear to the sky, to make my will clear, no, not to bully women and weak, to fight, for it?"

"Look, how can I, with all conscience, make you a knight?" said Sir Wright, shaking his head, for for some reason he would not have cared at all about this niece who had popped up out of nowhere. "Eve, you can see it too, she is not yet in the climate, you should go to someone else first. ”

Eve looked at Wei Wei, who was still trying to recall the contents of the knight's oath, nodded with a wry smile, and left the training ground, her first lobbying ended in failure.

"If civilians can join in...... He's the right fit!" "Although she didn't get Wright and Vivi, Eve already has the next candidate, and she's sure of it. Eve made her way to the stables, and she had taken a trip to the castle to Kerrydan.
