The thief saw Buna take off his coat, revealing his muscular figure, and kept approaching him with bad intentions.

The thief was so frightened that he hurriedly took the knife and slashed forward continuously, threatening: "Don't come here, my boss is the leader of Ed, do you dare to provoke him?"

Buna couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I really dare to provoke your boss, not only do I dare to provoke Ed, but I also dare to come over for him to teach you this unsuccessful subordinate!"

The thief was shocked, and on weekdays, as long as he reported his name as Elder Ed, those who wanted to disadvantage him would retreat.

However, this time he carelessly kicked the iron plate, but he didn't expect that this sturdy man was not afraid of Ed's might, but became more excited.

The thief tried to make a final struggle, and shouted: "I have a weapon in my hand, you must hurry up and get out of the way, we can both be safe, if you continue to approach me, then I will fight with you!"

Ignoring the thief's threats, Buna continued to walk forward.

The thief saw that all his usual tricks had failed, and in despair he shouted at Buna: "Ah! I fought with you!"

The thief tightened his grip on his knife and rushed towards Buna, but Buna only smiled contemptuously and dodged the thief's stabbing blow sideways, and the thief could not control the inertia of his sprint and fell heavily to the ground.

"I haven't used my strength yet, and you're down!"

Buna laughed and single-handedly picked up the thief, who struggled desperately in mid-air, but he was only doing some useless work, and there was nothing he could do to stop Buna from continuing to carry him.

The thief saw that he couldn't help Buna no matter what, so he had to give up the struggle and wait for Buna to deal with him.

Buna stretched out a hand and touched the thief's waist, and sure enough, he touched Russell's wallet.

Buna threw the purse back to Russell, and then threw the thief to the ground, leaving the thief so stumbling that he could barely stand up.

"What's your name, how dare you treat me like this, don't you know I'm a close confidant of Boss Ed?"

The thief grinned in pain, but he didn't forget to say harshly to Buna.

Seeing that the thief dared to lie on the ground and insult him, Buna kicked the thief in the leg, and then a crisp bone cracking sound sounded, and the thief fainted in pain.

Buna wanted to step forward and continue the pursuit, but was suddenly stopped by Russell.

Russell said helplessly: "Why did you knock this thief unconscious? Aren't you still tracking Ed's whereabouts? Isn't this a living source of clues in front of you!"

Buna slapped his head and suddenly said: "I'm impatient, hearing this kid's hard mouth, he forgot this important thing all of a sudden, he is already unconscious, what should the two of us do now?"

Russell opened his wallet and counted the gold coins inside, and then said: "What else can I do? I can only put the thief here, and his methods are habitual offenders, since the guards can't punish him, then let us cathar knights punish him."

If he's lucky, he'll be able to barely escape from here, and if he's unlucky, the guards will put him in prison tomorrow!"

Buna said apologetically: "I was still too impulsive just now, you told me before to control your personality, I didn't take it to heart.

I'll pay attention now, and you can pay attention to my changes in the future!"

Russell and Buna laughed and left the dark alley, leaving only the unconscious thief to continue lying in this cold and damp place.

Soon after, a long, dark figure emerged from the alley, smiling strangely as it watched the unconscious thief in front of it.

Then it opened its massive mouth, which took up almost half of its body, and in an instant swallowed the thief into its stomach.

The nights are very long, but there is also a time for the end of the day, when the dawn sun pours into the royal capital and gradually awakens the ancient city.

The evil that thrives in the middle of the night is disappearing, the people on the streets are starting their day again, and the city is gradually coming back to life.

Russell finally had a good night's sleep last night, I don't know if it was because he passed the assessment, his dream slept very sweetly.

The sun shone on Russell's face through the bright windowsill, waking Russell from his sleep, and Russell rubbed his eyes and slowly got up from the bed, stretching out very comfortably.

Russell suddenly felt as if something was missing from his side, and when he thought about it, it seemed that Betty, who came to say good morning to him every morning, hadn't come to play with him for a few days.

Russell thought back to Bishop Vane's confession and remembered why Betty didn't come.

Because Betty has now become a "god" in the church, she needs to learn about the church every day with various teachers who are well-versed in the church scriptures.

Even though Betty was indeed gifted in learning divine arts, she could not even read the Kingdom script, so how could she chant divine spells and study church books?

So Bishop Vane invited many of the most respected and knowledgeable scholars in the royal capital to help Betty with what she had been missing, and the nun was also teaching Betty the etiquette that she should observe as a "divine servant".

Russell couldn't help but be stunned when he listened to Betty's cry at the time, he had also received a complete set of aristocratic education as the heir of a nobleman since he was a child, but he didn't need to learn this kind of complicated knowledge!

Russell listened to Betty's crying, and after thinking about it for a while, he still felt that Bishop Vane had arranged too much learning content for Betty's child.

Therefore, Russell went to Bishop Vane's office and carefully explained the pros and cons of the matter to Bishop Vane, but fortunately, Bishop was also a reasonable person, and after listening to Russell's statement, he decisively decided not to let Betty continue to study magic for the time being.

However, Betty's lack of literary literacy must be cultivated, and he cannot let an illiterate child become a "god" of the church, and if such a situation is noticed, it will be publicized and used as a reason to laugh at the church!

Russell also expressed his helplessness about this, Bishop Vane made a lot of sense, and Russell could not refute this view, in this world, literate people will be looked down upon by the church and the aristocracy.

No matter how wealthy you are, if you are illiterate and illiterate, the church and the aristocracy will never treat you as if you were their own.

Russell had no choice but to tell Betty that she needed to learn words.

Although Betty did not achieve her idea of not learning this knowledge, she only reduced the learning content by half to meet Betty's expectations, so Betty decisively agreed to Bishop Vane's request.

Russell had just finished getting dressed and walked out the door when he bumped into Buna who had come over and called him for breakfast.

Buna greeted Russell and said, "The two of us will go and finish breakfast first, and when we get to the Knights of the Cathar, I will introduce you to my subordinates, they are all a group of righteous people, you must get along well from now on!"

Russell and Buna quickly finished their breakfast and went to the training ground of the Knights of the Cathar.

It was a large open space built inside the temple, and it was full of trained knights, who were either practicing alone or sparring with their comrades, and the field was full of shouts of battle, which made Russell's blood boil.

Along the way, they would occasionally meet resting knights, and when they saw Buna, they kept nodding their heads or saying hello to Buna, and there was no polite and fearless conversation.

Buna led Russell all the way to the interior of the clearing, where countless lush grasses grew to give it a bit of a wild atmosphere.

There were already several cathar knights of different genders standing on the grass, they were sweating and doing basic chopping training, and their attitudes were very serious, and they didn't even care that their own commander, the chief of the Buna knights, came to their side.

Buna walked up to the group of knights with satisfaction, clapped his hands and introduced Russell to the knights, "This handsome and dashing young man is the latest knight to join our team, his name is Russell Paul, he is a wise and brave man, I hope everyone can get along with this Russell knight!"

Suddenly, one of the knights in the team shouted in surprise: "I remember you, aren't you the villagers of Seth Village that we met when our team went to encircle and suppress the orc thieves in the past?

Buna clapped his hands and motioned for the knights to calm down, then explained, "I know you are very surprised by this, but you are mistaken, Russell is not a villager of Seth Village, he is just a traveler from a distant land, and he has passed the examination of Bishop Vane, which shows that he is a knight like no other!"

After everyone got to know Russell, Buna led Russell to introduce the knights in the team one by one, and the knights were not very xenophobic, they were just surprised by Russell's rapid growth.

After introducing Russell's identity, the knights, who were not good at words, began today's training again.

After all, the aphar knight needs to fight the enemy, which requires every knight to undergo strict combat training in addition to mastering the most basic magic skills, and only when the two develop in a balanced way can they win the battle more easily.

Buna and Russell also walked to an open meadow, where various weapons were arranged, and it seemed to be a venue for jousting matches.

Buna said to Russell: "Russell, go and choose a weapon to take advantage of, I will formally compare with you, let me know your true strength, and I can formulate a more suitable training method for you accordingly!"

Hearing this, Russell walked to the vicinity of the weapon rack, where all kinds of wooden weapons were placed, because this was only a place for martial arts, so it was only suitable to use wooden weapons, otherwise it would cause all kinds of cruel bloodshed.

Russell hesitated for a moment as he stood in front of the weapon rack, but decided to use the wooden longsword, which he had been using lately, and would have felt a little uncomfortable if he used the rest of the weapons.

Seeing that Russell had already selected his weapon, Buna strode to the front of the weapon rack and vigorously drew the heaviest weapon in it, which was a wooden two-handed greatsword.

Buna said proudly: "I didn't expect it, Russell, my best weapon is the two-handed greatsword, this is my favorite weapon, as long as the greatsword is swung hard, no one dares to try the power of the giant sword."

I'm ready, Russell, are you ready?"

Russell held the long sword in front of his eyes and said with a calm expression: "I am already ready for battle, Buna, your previous confidence, let me, a traveler from a distant place, break it!"
