As soon as the duel began, the captain of the Temple Knight was ready to make a ruthless move. He could find no reason to refute it, no shame, but anger—what he believed in had been preached for millennia, and the hatred that had accumulated had deepened, all of which should have been vented at the right time, was preached by a young man.

Now, the rage exploded, and the flaming sword wave was casually swung out by the knight captain.

"No matter how much you argue, you Terrans have indeed tarnished our glory, and this must never be forgotten. Said the Knight captain.

As the words fell, the sword wave just now slashed directly across Glori's left shoulder.

Glori, on the other hand, took a step forward. At the same time, the sword he swung to the left made a sharp collision with the sword of the knight captain, and swirled against the blade. With that, Glori pressed the knight captain's sword down to the left.

Just as the knight captain's sword was about to touch the ground, a gust of wind blew, blowing up the mantle that the knight captain had covered the left half of his body. Only then did Glori spot the dagger on the left side of the knight captain's waist, and the knight captain's left hand was about to pull out the dagger. Glori drew his sword back and took a step back to avoid being hurt by the dagger he drawn.

As soon as the dagger came out, it stabbed Glori in the neck. And what about Glorry, of course, he had to swing his sword to the right to fend off the dagger, but that's what the knight captain was waiting for. With that, the captain of the knights stretched out his right arm and stabbed his sword into Glori's left chest.

In order to dodge the Captain's sword, Glori stepped to the right, swirling the sword from the top of his head and slashing at the Captain's left shoulder, which he managed to defuse.

Then, the stagnation that appeared after slashing at the target was made known by the feeling of his right hand.

"You have to leave with your men, or you'll end up with blood all night. I don't want to hurt a blinded knight, and this fight shouldn't have happened. ”

Glori looked at the Cavaliers' captain, who had suffered a shoulder injury, and tried to persuade him. But Glori didn't realize that he was overtalking it, how could a knight who had returned from battle with glory just give up, not to mention that the wounds he sustained in duel were like a medal of glory - men like to show off their strength by returning home with scars.

So, the knight captain sneered.

"Look, this Terran boy in his twenties in front of me. He thought he could use his prowess to fight off a knight like me. I'm really worried if he's ever seen a real killing!heh! He should try to deal with the legions of the Remnant Moon or the Order, and maybe find a little self-knowledge - of course, he has to survive!"

How could a knight surrounded by honor be afraid of a young human swordsman like Glori?

However, in the face of the questionable past, the Cavaliers captain does want to make Glori pay for it. Either way, he was a knight and knew that loyalty was unshakable. He served the Night Tour Church and helped Lord Dolores according to the bishop's wishes, believing that under the leadership of Bishop and Lord Dolores, the kingdom of Gudian would rewrite history and restore its glory.

It is because of the loyalty of the Knight Captain that what he believes in cannot be questioned. But it is precisely because of this that he has become a fool. Until today's situation, the words "foolish loyalist" have been completely crowned on his head. He bears this ironic title, refuses to look back, refuses to face the truth, and does not want to let himself ruin the dream he once forged.

It's as if all the sad things come from fate, but some can be corrected. No, the knight captain cried out in his heart, he could not let his loyalty be called foolish, and he did not want the glory he had earned for his loyalty to become worthless.

If he obeys the order and obliterates everything in front of him, then who else can point fingers?" the knight captain twitched. He didn't find himself going crazy defending glory.

In a very short period of time, the expression of the knight captain had been captured by the swordsman's eye of Glory. He was mad, and Glori clearly saw a manifestation of ruthlessness and selfishness.

Just as Glori had seen, the knight captain's selfish desires had awakened the cursed land of ruins.

At this moment, the skeletons rose again from the sand, surrounded by dark fire. A skeleton with a half-cut axe scurries through the dead woods. Then, it stretched out its palm and aimed it at the Knight Captain.

Suddenly, a slender line of black flame was born in the air. Under the effect of the curse, it transfers the dark magic of the skeleton to the back of the knight captain. After that, the black flame thread collapsed, and it unleashed a shockwave that kicked up the sand.

As a result, everyone was knocked to the ground by the shockwave.

With the magic bestowed by the Dark Curse, the Knight Captain rose from the black sand. He looked back at the skeleton that had just come running, it had fallen apart, and he had been broken by a rib.

The Captain of the Knight crushed the dry ribs under his feet, then turned and faced Glori again.

"A formidable opponent, no wonder both the Lord and the Bishop want to get rid of you as soon as possible, one wants to poison you with dream poison, and the other has his subordinates disguise themselves as assassins to hunt you down. The captain of the knights said in a cautious tone.

After receiving a sword damage from Glori, the Knight Captain knew how many pounds he was dealing with, and he revisited the Bishop's conversation with Dolores, the young man known as the Blue Star, the apprentice of the current Knight Ritsu Mayne, who was fighting for the position of Knight with Kyle before he became King of the Dragon Empire.

Now, the Knight Captain has put aside his previous opinion of Glori, and then treats Glori as a very orthodox swordsman - after the competition just now, he really doesn't want to relax.

"Warriors, you must stand up, or how can I bring you down one by one in the open?" shouted the Knight Captain. He didn't know how dangerous the skeleton's magic was, and thought he had just been attacked by the skeleton.

However, the skeleton had lost its support by diverting the dark magic. In a fit of rage, the Knight Captain ignored the above.

Seeing that there was still no movement around, the knight captain walked to Glori's side with his sword in hand. Disappointed, he tried to pick away Glori's sword, but was unexpectedly attacked by Dylan.

"Do you want to take the sword from a swordsman in this way? How can a swordsman duel without a sword?" Dylan threw his flaming sword before he could get up.

"Damn fellow, try this—the Vortex Sword!" Dylan shouted.

Turning, flicking—the knight captain returned Dylan's sword to Dylan's eyes. Then, he stepped forward.

"Concerto of the Temple!"

As the words spoke, the blade of the sword rushed to the face.

Dylan rolled to his right, still allowing himself to hit his left calf twice. After slapping the dust, Dylan stood up. He didn't expect the knight captain to hide his strength, and he became more and more powerful with the help of dark magic. Two swords in quick succession made Dylan's right hand ache.

When Dylan saw the other Knights of the Temple wake up, he had no choice but to shout at Glori.

"Hey, brother, it's time to go to bed! You have to get up quickly, or they'll have to deal with the fainting buddies one by one before I turn into a honeycomb!"

Hearing Dylan's scream, Glori woke up suddenly. Just as he was about to get up, the sword in his hand was picked up by another knight. He had to sweep his leg sideways, and then stand up with his right hand on the ground.

And the knight who picked up Glori's sword jumped up at that time when he was swept by Glori's leg. As a result, when he landed, Glori's left hand held down his right hand, which wanted to swing the sword.

After a painful wail. The knight who picked up the Glori's sword received a blow from his own dagger, which was seen by the knight captain. The blow hit the left thigh. The dagger then swirled and slashed upwards in Glori's right hand, stabbing the knight directly in the left wrist.

Taking advantage of the knight's grip on his left wrist and retreating, Glori found an opportunity to retrieve his sword.

"Dragon's Tooth Storm!"

Glori slashed his sword. As the sword slashed down from the right to the left night sky, the view was blocked by the storm that was slanting towards it.

The storm swept away five of the knight captain's men, and Glori's companions were all safe under the blue flame barrier.

This scene made the knight captain a little panicked, and he felt that he was lost because of his insistence on fantasy and the negative effects of dark magic. He thought again of his own honor—that he had climbed the battlefield to embark on the path of glory of the knighthood, and that all his achievements would be crumbled and corrupted by his own obsession.

In the past, the old people always used to come home with medals to say that the young people were young and vigorous.

But for a knight who guards the church, no matter what age he is, there is no turning back, for the sake of glory and loyalty, it is either death or life - there can be no loser among the knights of the temple, failure means losing honor, and it means becoming a down-and-out commoner after being robbed of his fields and estates. So, what about children and wives?

So, the captain of the knights once again thought of the warmth he felt every time he went home. When he stepped into the house, his children and his wife were already waiting at the dinner table—the children would immediately get up and pounce on him, and his wife, who would come up to offer warm words of concern and check for any new wounds on his body.

Thinking of the child, and then of his wife's words and the image of beating his arm, the knight captain was sluggish. With that, he hesitantly took a step back. He didn't want to hold on to his misconceptions and practices anymore.

Accidents, but they still happened. Just when Glori thought it was going to be over, the Knight Captain stepped forward and stood in his position.

"For glory!"

As soon as the knight captain's words fell, he fell into the flames of darkness - he unleashed the magic that consumed him.

"I have to be convinced that everything I did was right, just for my family! I can't turn back!" the knight captain whispered sadly, praying for forgiveness from the god of light.

At this point, Glori closed his eyes slightly.

"We have to respect such people, even if they are stupid. In order to avoid such sad things, we must not stop. What do you say, Dylan?" Glory asked.
