Legend has it that before the monsters of the abyss were sealed, the quality and virtue of all living beings in the world were perfect.

However, when the gods sealed the monsters to the abyss one after another, the leaders of the seven demon clans, known as the "Seven Demon Gods", joined forces to cast a curse on the creatures of the Navia continent with great unwillingness and resentment.

Since then, the seven crimes represented by the Seven Demon Gods have lurked in the depths of the hearts of every citizen of the Navia Continent.

Arrogance, greed, anger, gluttony, jealousy, laziness, when you are dominated by any of these evils, you will fall into darkness forever.

These seven crimes are considered by the Holy See to be the source of all evils, and they have a special name in the canon of the Holy See - the "Seven Deadly Sins".

- The Root of All Evil

Kaye's sword was too fast, and the saber in his hand was unusually sharp, obviously not of exceptional quality, and the armor of the Great Han was easily pierced like papier-mâché.

The bald man covered his waist with his hands, but the blood was still flowing out from between his fingers.

"You've already lost, Black Knight who has betrayed your faith, if you still want to have a way to live, honestly lay down your weapons and give all the information about your accomplices. ”

"Phew! Boy who hasn't grown up yet, do you think my Uncle Hogg is greedy for life and afraid of death! You are embarrassed to call yourself a knight, and you don't dare to fight me openly. ”

Kaye rolled his eyes, thinking that Hogg's aggressive tactics were too low-level, and if he heard these words and rushed up to fight with Hogg, then he would have lived all these years in vain.

Knights must indeed fight in a dignified manner, which is a matter of knightly faith, so crossbows, hidden arrows and other long-range weapons with strong sneak attacks are strictly prohibited in the knight's code.

However, this does not mean that the knight's battle is all about slashing and slashing. In fact, in the daily training of knights, more attention is paid to the practice of the use of skills.

For example, how to unload and borrow force, how to avoid the opponent's attack on horseback, what kind of action to use to exert force can use the strength of the whole body muscles to a greater extent, etc...

If it was really like Hogg said, everyone rushed up and didn't care about 3721, and there was no brains to decide the winner or loser, life and death.

The knight profession must be a ruthless character who can stand on his arms, run a horse on his thighs, crush boulders on his chest, and have muscles in his head.

In the end, Kaye chose to ignore Hogg's words outright, not even thinking of correcting his words.

Because after carefully scanning Hogg's figure back and forth three times, Kaye suddenly realized that maybe this bald black knight really thought so.

"Since you don't want to cooperate, let's get straight to the point. According to the code of knighthood, I will judge you.

If there is an injustice in the Order that causes your rebellion, if there is an unjust person who persecutes you to betray your faith, you can tell me and the Order will seek justice for you, and you can be punished lightly. ”

"Boy, you can save it, don't come to this set. Among the black knights who have rebelled in the past, there are several who have grievances.

I'll tell you the truth, Uncle Ben never wanted to be a bullshit knight, but I heard that knights have money, status and status.

After being promoted to knight lord, maybe you can get a fief and get some oil and water from the untouchables, how wonderful it will be!

However, those self-proclaimed fair bastards of the Knights! I have already reached the strength of a level 6 Faith Knight, and I am not far from a level 7 sacrifice lord.

They even said that my chivalry still needs to be examined, and they have been stuck on my rank 4 Humble Knight and will not let me advance. Hmph, I think they're just afraid that I'll take their place sooner or later.

You know what? I didn't even get the Badge of Loyalty* until I left the Order! Why did anyone of my level make it to the next level and I didn't!

Look at me now, I have so many subordinates, I have inexhaustible money, I can do whatever I want, and I am free and there is no one to restrain me.

Is it possible to live like this in a place where birds don't poop like the Knights?

In this world, money and power are the most important things!

At the end of the day, Hogg was almost roaring in a roaring voice, and it seemed that the negative emotions that had been accumulated in his heart had been a lot.

Kaye did not feel the slightest sympathy for Hogg's words, but the cold light in his eyes grew, and in his opinion, every word Hogg said just now was an insult to the word knight.

Greed, arrogance, jealousy, Hogg's heart was filled with these three emotions. Indulging him will only lead to more tragedies.

"If you're just for money, you can be a mercenary, and if you want status, you can join the army and kill the enemy. With your prowess, even being the Empire's most elite hoplite won't be a difficult task.

Knights can earn people's respect, and they can indeed get more money and rewards.

But it's all based on the fact that you're a qualified knight.

Have you forgotten the first rule of the knight's code? Faith is the blade in our hands.

We do get more money, and that's because good knights use their money to help those in need.

We do get more rewards, and that's because a good knight knows how to protect his people.

We do earn more respect because qualified knights always follow the teachings of the knightly code and live carefully in words and deeds.

If you are not prepared for this, why should you become a knight? If you do not have such faith, and you question such a life, how can you receive more honors and rewards than ordinary people?

In my opinion, it is the most incredible thing to let someone like you pass the examination of a humble knight.

Repent, Hogg. Originally, even if you gave up the knightly path, if you gave your strength to your country and people in other places, I would still pay tribute to you.

Yet you have chosen to fall. So now, pay the price for your choice!"

Kaye raised his sword to his chest at 90 degrees on his elbows, and spat out a few incomprehensible characters between his lips.

In an instant, the saber in Kaye's hand shone brightly, like a cedar tree growing and spreading.

After a while, the blue light gradually converged again, and finally, it turned into a thin, pale green transparent scabbard-like appearance wrapped around the sword body.

"Holy Sword Charlot!" Hogg screamed, and ran off into the distance in a panic.

He had only one thought now: the farther away from the blonde knight, the better. Thinking that I wanted to casually slash the other party before?

To fight a man with a legendary magic weapon on his own is like an old birthday boy hanging himself - impatient.

Hogg galloped desperately as he could, occasionally looking back to observe Kaye's movements.

Seeing that Kaye was still sitting motionless on horseback, Hogg felt a burst of joy in his heart.

The feeling of being in a desperate situation made him feel that his whole body was a little fluttering.

But in the next second, Hogg discovered something that frightened him.

He found that he seemed to be really floating, and in a trance, he also seemed to see his war horse, carrying a very familiar body and galloping forward, but the figure on the horse's back seemed to be missing something...

While Hogg was escaping, Kaye had just activated the magic circle on Charlotte the Holy Sword to chase after him.

Before he could start, a silver-white figure appeared in his field of vision like lightning, and rushed straight towards Hogg.

Since Hogg was always keeping an eye on Kaye's position, he didn't see the crisis behind him at all.

The rest was evident, and just as Hogg was still complacent at Kaye's inaction, Augustine stretched out his claws and slashed lightly across his neck.

If the protagonist of this scene is Romeo and Juliet, it must be extremely beautiful and romantic.

It's a pity that Hogg may only be able to get involved with orc beauties. And even the stone pillars of the palace, slashed by the claws of the winged lion, can only collapse with a bang.
