Chapter 3: Another Order

At this time, the knight who was guarding outside shouted to the door, "The Knights of the Illumination Day have asked for a meeting. 」

"See!" Banatu replied aloud.

The door opened, revealing a group of men dressed in the knightly uniforms of Nekukamina.

Nekukamina is one of the surrounding countries of Sarafayido, and they also have a Royal Order of the Holy Shield in Sarafayido's own country.

The country also has another neighbor, Dalampain, which is in the same cultural circle as Sarafayido, and the language is basically the same, and the official language is the Etharo standard, with only minor differences in word choice and pronunciation. For example, the people of Nirvana only use the words "you, he" on the side of the human character, and unless they come across a foreign language translation article, they are not accustomed to using the newly coined words "you, you, she, it, it, he", etc.

In the group of Knights of the Amaterial Day at the door, the leading knight had long, soft chestnut hair tied back with a royal blue ribbon. On the outside, he was close to thirty years old. Knights with holy swords are usually not easy to age, so their actual age should be more than that. He was tall and thin, and the skeleton of his whole body gave the impression of a poplar-like plant growing straight up.

He and the knights behind him wore a silver shield on their chests, which differed from the Knights of the Holy Shield in that their badges were patterned with a yellow ring and a three-legged white crow with wings spread in the middle. The leading knight, his coat of arms has many tiny marks that have been scratched over the years.

As Banato got up and walked over to the lead knight, Shuilonu looked up at the man as well. She always felt that some of the people behind the maroon-haired knight gave her strange feelings. Looking at the attire, they are indeed knights, but there seems to be a difference. It seems to be missing something she can't tell, like a temperament that can bring fresh air to the room.

The maroon-haired knight smiled and introduced himself, "I've admired my name for a long time, Lord Bannato. I am Garrag, the dragon knight of the Apocalypse. The smile was stripped of all its sharpness and sleek like a pebble, a social smile reserved for high society. He behaved very well in this regard, and even his body posture, and the arm that was slightly pulled to his side, showed a kind of courtly and natural etiquette.

The knights behind him, too, stood as if they were in front of the palace gates, even in this private setting. On the other hand, the knights of the Holy Shield in the room were not standing properly. The bamboo shoots were touching his nose, and he leaned forward and looked over the curious door above Akouer's head, and Akouer silently rewarded him with a limp before he stood up straight.

Gallag must have been looking around the room out of the corner of his eye, because when he turned to Seren, his eyes weren't making sure that the other party wasn't there, but rather that he already knew, and now he just changed to face up.

"Who is that?" Gallagher asked Banato.

"Seren, Nicol Lafayette. Paladins of this regiment. 」

"We also have a paladin. 」

Banato smiled and beckoned to Seren.

So Serense walked over to the two, and he and Banatu walked out of the room, closed the door, and left with the knights of the Apocalypse.

Shuilonu rested his chin in both hands, thinking about the strange sensation he had just had. After thinking about it for a moment, she decided to ask Bamboo Shoot directly, "I think those people are a little strange. 」

"Not like a knight?" asked Akor.

"Not really. 」

"It's not quite right for a knight. The bamboo shoot raised his index finger and offered a similar, but subtly different, statement.

"yes, that's pretty much what it feels. Shuilonu nodded.

"Because by our standards, more than half of them are not knights. The bamboo shoots waved his hand while explaining: "The rule of our country is that knights are born to graduate, and if you can't call the holy sword all the time, you can't become a knight. As long as they pass the assessment, they are considered knights regardless of whether they have a holy sword or not. 」

"Oh. Shuilonu understood. Therefore, although those people wore knights' uniforms and did knightly work, many of them did not have holy swords, and Shuilonu would feel strange when he sensitively noticed this.

In Sarafayido, it is a matter of course that knights have holy swords. Miracle weapons, which are always inseparable from knights, often surround them with a different atmosphere.

"Seren's return should be full of frustration. Akor's whispered, "Their dragon knight is the same rank as the deputy head of the regiment with us. Galag was said to be the strictest of them all. 」

"Ahh

"There's no way not to show up. Now the paladins only have Seren and Shuyang on the day of the Holy Light, although I heard that Shuyan didn't come, and the person next to Shuyan laughed, this kind of errand still can't run. 」

The bamboo shoots pursed his lips, raised his hand, and said in a saluting posture, "Then, I'll go buy what he likes to eat and come back." 」

"I'll tell you Banato, go. Akoel said.

So the bamboo shoots grabbed their wallets and went out.

"As for you, it's time for you to leave. Akorne unceremoniously grabbed Shuilonu by the forearm and sent her out.

One of the four restaurants attached to the hotel, the "Short Room", is decorated in black, with only lights at the bar and tables, and a few floors that are translucent, and the light shines from the inside. Although it is daytime, there are no windows, and the large false glass windows on the wall show a night view of the high-rise building that does not match the actual floor. It's always night, so you don't have to wait for the morning to come and end your short good time.

Bamboo shoots walked to the bar in casual clothes, ordered cuttlefish stew to take, and then sat down and waited. To his left sat a tall, lanky young man, with a lean muscular body visible under his casual clothes. The man wore a waist-length braid, and in the dim light he could still see that his hair was red. Although the hair is messy and the bangs are cut casually, it is messy and stylish. The bamboo shoot saw his face out of the corner of his eye, it was a Nekukamina person.

The young man seemed to know that the bamboo shoots were peeking at him, and he turned his head to send a teasing smile.

The bamboo shoots didn't want to cause trouble, so they drank their own water quietly. But the man moved to the bamboo shoots, brought his plate of sliced sausages with him, and asked the bamboo shoots in a low voice, "The knight of the holy shield?"

The young man raised his right hand, pretended to pluck his bangs, and waved it in front of the bamboo shoots, who saw a glimmer of light flash in his hands. Although that person suppressed the fluctuations to the minimum, it looked like a magic effect at first glance, but he was also a knight, and the bamboo shoots could recognize it, it was a holy sword.

This man is a knight on the day of the Aillumination.

Bamboo shoots nodded. According to the custom of the knights of the Holy Shield, he pinned the holy sword to his clothes when he was not in use, and those who also had the holy sword could recognize him if they paid attention.

"Mono Taibasnaku. The red-haired youth newspaper on the name.

"Tai Ruo Yong. The bamboo shoots replied.

"It's the first time I've met a knight from another country. Mono laughed. He looked very kind now, with glowing eyes and a little innocence.

The bamboo shoots didn't know how to answer, so Mo Nuo said to himself: "Hey, I want to go to see Fengfantang, and I also want to eat mango ice, is there a place here where I can sit on the Demon King Lotus?

Only then did the bamboo shoots notice that Mono had a copy of the local tourist information in his hand.

"Y-are you here for sightseeing?" Bamboo Shoots sighed.

"No, I'm here to work. Mono blinked, then frowned and said, "There should be free time, right?"

"That's for your boss. Bamboo shoots said. Listening to the reputation of the dragon knight Garrag, there may not be.

"It's rare to go abroad, and I don't want to go back without seeing anything. Mono sighed, and then asked, "What's the fastest way to get to Shanghe Night Market, and can I go back and forth in an hour?"

"With the time spent eating and shopping, an hour is definitely not enough. 」

"Ahh He sighed very energetically, and faintly had the momentum of never giving up.

While the two were chatting about the sightseeing spots in their country's capital, some of the bamboo shoots' attention was siphoned off by the guests at one of the tables in the restaurant. The two men looked normal on the surface, wearing suits, drinking cocktails and chatting, and the content was nothing more than some topic of pursuing women. The problem is that their faces are natives, and their accents are native, but the content of the conversation is slightly different from what a man of his age should say.

The bamboo shoots felt strange.

After a while, the two guests got up and walked out of the restaurant, and at this time, the take-out cuttlefish stew with bamboo shoots was ready, and he carried the plastic bag and walked out, and Mono followed out.

The two walked and talked, Takeo walked much faster than the average person, and when he was about to overtake the two guests, Bamboo Shoot deliberately let himself walk on the side close to the two guests.

It was just them and the two guests in the hallway, and when they were far enough away from the restaurant, they were no longer visible through the black glass.

"Isn't there a 'one-day ticket', where do I buy it?" asked Mono.

"You can buy it at the relevant station, it's the same as a regular ticket-" Halfway through Bamboo Shoot's answer, one of the two guests let out a cold breath and grabbed Bamboo Shoot's back!

The bamboo shoots had already taken precautions, and the emerald green bamboo branch holy sword immediately returned to its original state in his hand, and he turned around to parry, but it fell into the air.

The bamboo shoots saw that the two guests were wrapped in red flames, their bodies curled up, and they fell against the wall with their faces clutched.

Mono fought back one step ahead of the bamboo shoots.

The bamboo shoots looked at Mono in astonishment. Mono had an extra flaming sword in his hand, and the shape of the tongue of fire looked like he held a piece of wood that had been burning from beginning to end, but he saw only fire and no wood. He glared at the two guests sternly, turned to the bamboo shoots, and immediately smiled again, and asked with bright eyes, "So you can buy a one-day ticket directly with the counter?"

"Yes, that's right. You've discoveredβ€”"

The bamboo shoots were about to ask Mono when he found out, but Mono pressed his eyebrows, his smile disappeared, he glared at the two and gritted his teeth, and said, "It's not done yet!"

The skin of the two burning men became swollen and black, gradually becoming transparent, and Zuihou's whole body turned into a mass of black soft mud, and the muscles and human forms could no longer be seen, and the soft mud crawled out of the charred clothes.
