The crowd followed Count Cooler all the way to the second floor, where the hall on the first floor was used for important ceremonies, and the small hall on the second floor was usually used for the king's and courtiers' deliberations. At the door of the small hall, there were two guards standing with long axes in their hands, and the heavy armor of the two of them looked particularly powerful, but in fact, wearing such heavy armor could not fight at all, at most it could only scare people.

The Earl led a few men into the small council room, where many people were already waiting, but the king's throne on the high platform was still empty. The ministers all gathered around when they saw several people coming, and most of them were aiming for the earl, and being able to have a good relationship with this earl would be of great help to their careers.

Occasionally, a few people came to greet Savin, and now that he is a big celebrity in Thorin City, these sensitive politicians will naturally not let go of the opportunity to get into a relationship with Savin, after all, anyone can see that Savin is already a celebrity in front of the king, and he may be further promoted by the king in the future.

While everyone was chatting hotly, the King's attendants entered the council chamber and announced loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived!"

As soon as they heard that the king was coming, everyone hurriedly stood in the usual order, and watched everyone busy standing in line, while Savin and the others looked left and right, and for a while they did not know where they should stand. At this time, an attendant came and pulled Sawan and led him to the end of the line, and Sawin smiled bitterly and had to stand at the end of the line with Eliza and the others.

A moment later, King Berus strode into the small council chamber, surrounded by his attendants, and the courtiers immediately bowed in unison to greet the king, and Sahain had no choice but to do so. Without squinting, Berus climbed all the way up to the high platform, sat down on the wide chair, adjusted his sitting posture, and then said, "Excuse me." ”

Hearing the king's words, the courtiers straightened their waists again and focused their eyes on Berus's face. The main content of today's court meeting is to canonize Sawan as a knight, and the others are just a formality, so at the beginning of the court meeting, several ministers reported a few insignificant things to the king according to the prior arrangement, and Berus gave instructions one by one, and this pass was considered to be over, and the next thing was the canonization ceremony.

Although everyone already knew that Samhain would be canonized as a knight, it is curious what kind of knightly title the king would give Samhain, and many people speculated that Samhain might be knighted as an honorary knight or a knight of champions, both of which have only titles and no fiefdoms, after all, Samhaen is only the champion of a gladiatorial tournament, and to put it mildly, it is just for entertainment.

Before the king came, many people talked about it, and asked the earl, but the earl only laughed and did not answer, and deduced that he did not know the king's mind.

I heard the squire beside the king announce in a loud voice: "Here is the champion of the tournament, the warrior from Pegasus Castle - Sahain!"

Hearing his name, Savin stepped out of the queue, then took a deep breath and walked steadily towards King Berus, who was on the throne in the center. When Berus saw Sawan walking towards him, he stood up with a smile on his face, his hands behind his back, and his eyes kept looking at Savan. Sawan came to the platform, got down on one knee, and lowered his head to hide the reluctance on his face.

Berus beckoned to the side, and one of the attendants offered the king's sword, the Starthorn, with the hilt of the sword richly decorated, in addition to the exquisite gold ornaments, and various gems as bright as the stars. Bruce gripped the hilt of his sword and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard, a narrow sword, narrower than a normal sword, but much wider than a dueling sword, somewhere in between.

With his sword in his hand, Berus came to Sawin's face, then put the sword on Sawin's shoulder, and said, "In the name of the king of Linke, I give Saween ......" When Berus deliberately paused at this point, the courtiers pricked up their ears, wondering what title the king would give Sawin. After a pause, Berus continued, "Bestow upon Savin the title of Knight of the Forest, and the blood of the Brave will be shed. With that, Berus touched his sword on Savin's shoulder on the other side.

Savin replied as the Count had taught him: "In the name of blood, keep your oath forever." ”

"Savan, get up. Bruce said, and Sawin rose to his feet. Berus condescendingly patted Sawan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You will be a knight of the Royal Forest in the future, you must serve Lin Kaiguo well." Sawin barely managed to squeeze out some smiles, but thought to himself, "When did I say I was going to play for Lin Kaiguo?"

The canonization ceremony was over, and Sawan walked back into the queue, and Eliza and Exevin quietly patted him on the arm in congratulations. However, Sawan didn't know that the king's canonization of him as a knight of the royal forest was really beyond the expectations of many people, according to the practice of the Rings, only three kinds of knights were considered serious knights, and the others could only be regarded as miscellaneous knights, with only one title, only the knight of the sword, the knight of the royal forest and the knight of the golden lion were real knights.

These three knight titles can not only have fiefs, but also form their own personal guards, which can be regarded as the smallest lord, of course, not every knight will have fiefs and guards, but this power does exist.

The ministers all wondered why the king valued a gladiatorial champion so much, and other people could be crowned a knight with a sword if they made military achievements on the battlefield, but this Sawan was crowned a knight of the royal forest all of a sudden, and this knight of the royal forest was a level higher than the knight of the sword. Sawan didn't know what the ministers were thinking, being able to be a knight of a certain country could be regarded as a little famous, and returning to the ocean in the future would be enough to be the envy of other dragons.

Bruce then announced another appointment, which really startled the courtiers, and Savan, who was in the mood, heard the last few words, only to hear the squire of Berus holding a piece of parchment in both hands and announcing loudly: "His Majesty has specially appointed Count Culler as the prime minister of the kingdom...... This appointment immediately made the ministers in an uproar, and no one expected that such an important appointment would be announced at today's court meeting.

The position of Prime Minister of Lin Kaiguo has been vacant for several years, and the king has not appointed a new prime minister since the death of the previous prime minister during his term of office.

Count Culler, who probably knew this result a long time ago, walked up to the king with a smile on his face, and respectfully accepted the letter of appointment with both hands, and then King Berus himself put on him the badge of the power of the prime minister, and a great appointment affecting the kingdom was completed so quickly in the consternation of the courtiers.

At this time, everyone was surprised to find that the original canonization of knights in today's court was just a disguise, and the real purpose was to appoint Count Cooler as the prime minister, so that a new force rose in the court, no wonder the king would treat Sawan so favorably, it turned out that the real purpose was to support Count Cooler to ascend the throne.

Satin and Eliza did not understand these court struggles at all, and they were still happy for the Earl, and the two applauded happily, who expected that the applause immediately attracted the eyes of everyone to the two of them, and those eyes were full of unfriendly looks, which made Savin and Eliza feel very surprised.

After the court meeting, King Berus left Count Culler behind, while Savin and the others got into a carriage and returned to the Earl's Palace. In the carriage, Savin asked Exewin puzzled: "Why are those people so unhappy when they hear that the Earl is Prime Minister?"

Exewin smiled and said: "Do you still need to ask, the prime minister is the second position after the king, those people fight for this position, who would have thought that the earl would be appointed by the king as the prime minister, so they can still be happy?"

Sawin shook his head again and again, and said, "I really don't understand what there is to fight for, so I won't fight for the prime minister, or go back and be more comfortable as my mercenary, you say, Eliza?" Sawin asked Eliza for support, Eliza nodded absentmindedly, and then looked out of the car window.

Hearing Savan's words, Exewin smiled bitterly and said, "What the hell are you thinking? Don't you know that you are already a knight, and it is impossible for you to go back to be a mercenary." ”

Savan was shocked when he heard Exewin's words, and he asked in disbelief: "What! Why is that? Why can't I be a mercenary, I still have to go back with Captain Hortz!"

Exewin covered his face with his hands, looking very distressed, and replied after a while: "You are really a simple fool, what is a knight, a nobleman!, and a mercenary can only be a commoner, from the moment you are canonized as a knight, the mercenary guild will remove you, how can you be a mercenary!"

"Ah, no one told me beforehand, I wouldn't have been a knight if I had known I'd been!" said Savin angrily.

"Don't be stupid, you have to know how many people envy you, many people can't get the title of knight after fighting for a lifetime, who wants to be a mercenary for a lifetime, you have to cherish this honor to ......" Exevin gushed to Savan.

Samhain, on the other hand, played a childish temper, covering his ears with his hands and kept chanting: "I want to be a mercenary, I want to be a mercenary......"
