Section 67. The Sixth Knight of the Holy Grail

The only rewards given to the Academy by the Empire are fame and the title that belongs exclusively to the champion, the Champion Warlock.

Like the Champion Knight, it is the end of earthly glory, and the Champion Profession can be respected wherever human civilization radiates.

It is even more precious than the title of "King of the North". When Annam visits a place as the king of the north, the locals will exclaim, "Oh, where is the big man?" But when presented as a "champion", Annan can easily get fans anywhere.

Some aristocrats thought that stuffing the "champion" to a group of young people would make the championship less precious, and only the really big and well-informed people knew what was going on - the title of champion of the tournament was booked from the beginning.

A young nobleman who has inherited the king of the North, uncovers the McKennel's plot to go north, is wanted by the Montreal branch of the Dark Ratmen, and still uncovers their horrific deeds of killing the two Holy Grail Knights, and finally resists the rat tide to prevent the Snow Mountain Fortress from falling to the demon tide and the rat tide.

The championship is well deserved.

The canonization ceremony was the crowning of Annan by a knight of the Holy Grail, a resolute old knight of the Holy Grail who wore a Ouroboros woven from ears of green wheat.

The Knight of the Grail bowed his head intimately and said, "I know what you've done...... Mel and Kleber will be proud of you. ”

Knights of the Eighth Grail and the Knights of the Fifteenth Grail......

"Do they still have a chance to be resurrected?" Annan did not want to see the heroes of humanity die of betrayal.

"I don't know, kid...... We could have done it before, but in the turbulent years, all the gods lost contact, including the goddesses, and only the gods who had prepared in advance hid in the human world......"

"Can you elaborate on that?"

"Of course. Some of the gods had a premonition of turmoil, some walked on earth as saints to avoid the crisis, and some broke through the barrier with great strength. It's just that these gods have lost most of their powers, and they can't fight humanity against the next crisis......"

"And the crisis?"

"Turmoil doesn't come for no reason...... "The Grail Knight patted him meaningfully on the shoulder.

"Kid, you seem a little disappointed?"

"I thought there would be some rewards." But when he told the Grail Knight that these things were too vulgar, Annan changed his words and said, "I thought I would see the emperor of the empire." ”

The only contact Annan had with the Emperor was when he heard his voice during the announcement of the nest competition.

"The Emperor has already seen you." He said.

Annan looked at the seat shrouded in magic.

The Knight of the Holy Grail met with the other players one after another, and made them excitedly praise a few words, distinguishing Annan from their treatment.

The Knights of the Holy Grail saw Annan as a junior who could talk to them as equals, and they were just students.

"I'm Salgador, Knight of the Sixth Holy Grail." After going around in a circle, the Grail Knight returned to Annan's side, the unsmiling minister on the left.

The court painter is painting for the contestants of the ten academies, and the hand holding the brush is waved into an afterimage.

Annan is caught in the middle by the big shots, but the only people he knows are the Grail Knight and Isabel's uncle.

"You look a lot younger than Mel."

"But when I became a Knight of the Holy Grail, Mel was still a servant." Salgado said that after the goddesses of the lake also lost contact, their divine power was used less, and no knight would waste their precious power on maintaining their youth.

"Do I have a chance to become a Grail Warlock?"

The minister tilted his head slightly, and Salgado smiled: "There is no such thing. ”

"But there shouldn't be a requirement that a Warlock can't become a Grail Knight, right?"

"Yes, child, as long as you pass the test of the goddess. It's just not right now......"

Annan looked to his left again and hesitated, "Uncle Ollie?" ”

The muscles on the head of the ceremonial minister's face drooped as if they had lost their support.

"I'm a friend of Isabel......"

The minister ignored himself, another Mr. Schwarro?

It took only a few minutes for the court painter to complete the giant oil painting of the first Imperial Tournament. The painting will be in the collection of the Imperial Museum.

Annan saw the painting. Vivid students stand in the arena with cheering spectators and falling bunting in their backs, and the layering of paint gives this painting a historical weight.

The Knight of the Grail is gentle, the head of the ceremonial department is serious, and a shy smile appears on his cheek at the center of the painting.

"Did I laugh like that just now?" Annan couldn't remember.

After the tournament ended, the Imperial Etiquette Department held a grand banquet in the palace garden of Huanshan in the name of the royal family.

Annan didn't have a dress, so they went back to the embassy first and asked the etiquette department to send the dress. As soon as he came out of the gladiatorial arena, he met Lacey, and Annan thought that he wanted to return the jewelry, but the owner of the Jewel Star gave it to Annam with a lot of money - the benefits that Annan brought to the Jewel Star in the past few days were several times the expense.

"We will have the opportunity to work together in the future." Annan said mysteriously, not telling the curious Reis what it was. Then I went to Steve's magic store and said it again.

There are now two sponsors of Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Knock Knock Knock –

Embassy, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

Annan looked up from behind the open cash box, closed the lid of the box and put in the magic ring, and opened the door to let Alice in.

"The tournament is over, what are you going to do next, get the fief?"

Annan took a notebook from under his pillow and handed it to Alice.

"Magical images?"

After saying that, Alice didn't see the ugly title and flipped through the notes. And Annan opened the portal in his bedroom - the Ministry of Ceremonies granted the embassy the ability to cast spells.

"Good afternoon, Her Highness Elimoas." Annan greeted the blue dragon who was napping on the sparse gem, "Your dress looks good that day......"

Elimoas's languid pupils sharpened: "That's mine!" ”

"But there's still a piece of jewelry missing."

Annan didn't care about her attitude, took out the purple gem necklace from the ring, and hesitantly gestured at Elimoas's huge dragon body, asking her to stretch out the dragon claws and put them on as a ring.

"Purple Jewel ...... worth 600 gold"

Elimoas purred in a low, satisfied voice as Lily.

Annan, who was wearing the "ring", paused: "How much?" ”

"Dragons have the ability to know the value of things." Elimoas whispered proudly.

Annan looked down at the necklace on the dragon's claws, and hurriedly reached out to untie it. Elimoas wanted to retract the dragon's claws, but found that because Annan couldn't enter the portal, he grabbed the "ring" and squeezed it off the dragon's claws. Elimayas let out an angry roar, stretched out her dragon claws and grabbed Annan firmly, shaking the coins out of her pocket—

Alice looked up at the two guys who were struggling, and continued to look at the plan in her notes.
