Chapter 12: Trail to the cumin (middle)
Chapter 12 is in the midst of sorrow
The Northern Heaven Knights Base, the third conference room.
"Sorry, I am late." Arthur paused and was shocked by the group in front of him."
In the center of a conference room, there is a large table in the center. Sitting at the table neatly sat on the top of a large group of Knights. There are no fewer than ten staff members as Gaia Knights. They look serious and seem to be opening some important meeting.
"Sorry, I am in the wrong room, bothering." Junior Arthur quickly quit.
"Where do you want to go?" A big man in front of the door blocked the teenager's way. As he walked backwards, Arthur clung awkwardly on the man.
The boy turned back and looked at the person who was blocking the road. He was shocked and annoyed. This big man was the Grand Duke of Lyon Dickens, the head of the Knights of the Northern Heavens. He had been [making] Arthur’s big man.
"Is this another joke for you?" Arthur asked in a low voice.
"It's not a joke. In short, you can go in and sit down! So many people are waiting for you, politely, you should sit down and listen to what is going on?" The Duke of Lyon Dickens pushed Arthur Put it.
The teenager walked halfway down and reluctantly entered the conference room to sit down and avoid the eyes of everyone. In the face of how terrible monsters have never had a fear of a teenager, but at this time they are cautious and do not say a word.
Arthur did not forget his identity at the moment. He was only a servant, and the Knights bought it from the slave market. How humble and ridiculous this little servant is in front of these high-powered big men.
He never belongs to this place. And he also knows that he may never belong to this place - in all senses.
"Is everyone here? I will make a long story short." The Grand Duke of Lyon Dickens sat in the middle of the conference room and set up his Erlang legs.
At that moment, Arthur was sure that he smelled alcohol.
"Please present the twelve golden knights here, the seven Gaia knights, and me, the Knight of the Northern Knights, Aaron Drian Dickens here to prove that this trainee knight, Arthur d Kyle Dunton, officially upgraded to the Silver Knight, awarded the title of the Viscount, and began to be incorporated into the Special Operations Force today. Do you have any opinions?"
The knights here did not say anything. They looked at Arthur with some kind of anticipation. It seems that they have already reached a conclusion. Now this [meeting] is just a superficial form.
There is no objection to such a ridiculous thing. This made the teenager feel overwhelmed for a while. However, just after a moment, Arthur took a turn and said: "I am very grateful to the promotion of the Grand Duke, but it is hard to die."
"Why?" The head of the Knights frowned. "How many people struggle for a lifetime may not be able to climb the seat of the silver knight, do you want to refuse if you don't want to?"
(Note: The ranks of the Pantorakken Knights are from low to high:
Bronze Horseman (Apprentice/bronzeknight) -> Ironknight - Silverirker -> Golden Knight (Golden Knight) -> Gaiaknight -> Knight of Heaven (Knight) Head of delegation / (celestalknight)
In general, the Cavaliers need to pass very strict trials for every level of promotion, and those who cannot pass the trials are not allowed to be promoted. Arthur suddenly upgraded from a servant to a silver knight, which is equivalent to jumping three levels, which is an unprecedented promotion. )
"I don't want to be a knight in the next." Arthur replied firmly (coldly) that he still didn't care about such a huge temptation: "I want to be a swordsman, not bound by the rules of the Knights, just to become The strongest exists."

"But are you not in the Knights now?" asked the Duke of Lyon Dickens inexplicably.
The Duke of Cameron, a side of the staff, immediately whispered to the Duke of Lyon Dickens: "Strictly speaking, he does not belong to the Knights. He was originally a slave, because the Knights’ welfare plan bought him back and hired as a next person. Until he used his money to redeem his worth. He is now a follower of the Cavalier Richard Viscount."
"Oh." The Grand Duke dissatisfiedly snorted: "What a messy identity. The dragon is really unable to tie it."
"Lord Duke?" Heared Arthur for a while.
"Nothing." Lyon Dickens quickly opened the subject to cover up his own words. "That is, you don't want to be bound by the rules of the Cavaliers, right? No problem. The Rangers were originally based on independent actions. You don't Will be bound by the rules. Killing and setting fire, appropriate to respect. As long as the task is completed smoothly - the reward is still considerable!"
When it comes to remuneration, the boy’s face instantly passes through a subtle expression: "I don't care much about remuneration."
"There will be very difficult tasks waiting for you, and it should be a very good exercise for you." The staff added.
The teenager thought for a while.
This is obviously a pit, but he has to jump into the pit. There were dozens of high-powered figures watching Arthur. The Duke of Lyon Dickens had such a rich condition, and if Arthur did not agree, the people present might be in trouble.
With great social pressure to force Arthur to come to the van – is this the effect that the old fox wants?
The teenager sighed: "The deal."
(This account, I will always be clear with you, the prince Anthony Dukes.)
"Very good." The Grand Duke smiled smugly. "Since everyone has reached a consensus, it is so fixed. Come here to sign a name, then let go."
The knights came over and shook hands with the teenager, while signing the official documents and saying something congratulations. Arthur just politely echoed, and finally completed the signature, and immediately crowded out of the crowd from the conference hall.
"That is still a monster." Chief of Staff Cameron whispered to the Grand Duke, "Do you really have to deal with such a monster? What a dirty deal."
"It doesn't matter, as long as it is a strong person. All we need is his strength. There is something wrong with the character itself. I can use time to slowly transform. I haven't told you? I am very talented in tame monsters." The Knights of Heaven.
With a new toy, Lyon Dickens is very happy.
His son is not happy at all.
Black Iron Knight Richard Dickens lurked outside the window of the conference hall and learned about Arthur's promotion.
Richard, the little servant who usually looked down on him, even climbed to the third level and climbed to Richard's head.
What an unacceptable fact. Richard's face is as black as ink.
If he can, he really wants to kill his father, the old man who only drinks alcohol.
