Chapter 170: Chapter 58: Bianka's Withdrawal and Ending



Finally, as time passed, Bianka welcomed her own canonization ceremony.

Although she didn't like grand events, she still made some serious preparations on the eve of the canonization. This time, she was no longer wearing the armor she had gotten before but her own exclusive battlesuit, [Bright Knight·Excelsis].

After all, this canonization represents many things. It not only reflects the attitude of the country and the Bright Knight, Bianka, but it also symbolizes that she has officially taken over the "power" and assumed the associated obligations and responsibilities.

The Headquarters of the Immortal Blade Knights——

"Hmm."

At this moment, Bianka wore a beautiful dress, exaggerated glasses, and with messy hair and an unsettled expression. She glared at the person not far behind her with resentment.

As for why Bianka looks so embarrassed now, it all started with the canonization ceremony that had just ended. Although the whole ceremony was a bit complicated, there were no issues overall. The problem arose when she was leaving the ceremony.

Even though she was in disguise, Durandal was still recognized by fans and was directly surrounded by a group of fanatical admirers. It took her half a day to escape and run all the way back here.

"You can't blame me, Lady Durandal. Your fans just love you too much," Rita spoke, spreading her hands innocently as she looked at the resentful gaze from her own goose.

"Humph~ If that's the case, I don't think I need to disguise myself next time," Bianka snorted, eyeing Rita's innocent look.

To be honest, Durandal felt she shouldn't have listened to Rita's suggestion in the first place—to wear a dress and disguise herself. In the end, not only was she recognized, but she also became more conspicuous than usual.

"That's not what I meant, Lord Durandal. Perhaps I just didn't disguise you well enough this time. Next time, I can help you change your style," Rita suggested with a smile after hearing Bianka's words.

Hearing this, Bianka narrowed her beautiful blue eyes suspiciously and then said, "Rita, if you just want to see me in a different style of dress, just say so."

"How could that be? Although Lady Durandal does look good in a dress, my original intention was to help you with your disguise~" Rita smiled gently, showing no guilt as she responded to Bianka's suspicion.

"Alright. But let's try to avoid this situation next time. It's a bit troublesome."

"Hehe~ Okay."

——————————————————

Not long after Bianka's canonization ceremony, another event exploded in public opinion.

Besides Bianka, the other biggest dark horse in this tournament, [Blazing Axe Knight] Dikaiopolis, was exposed as an infected person.

Durandal was a bit surprised by this news.

Others may not know, but she knew very well who [Blazing Axe Knight] Dikaiopolis was.

He is the champion of this session in the original plot, who eventually changed his title to [Blood Knight]. Bianka was not surprised that [Blood Knight] could become a dark horse and emerge from a group of people despite being accidentally injured.

What surprised her was that even though she broke the pattern and shocked the top leaders, the fact that Dikaiopolis was an infected person was still accidentally exposed.

However, although it was somewhat unexpected, the exposure of this matter presented an opportunity in the eyes of Durandal.

After this news broke, Bianka did not allow public opinion to ferment and directly issued a competition system for infected people in the United Knights Association, granting infected people the same right to participate in knight competitions as ordinary people.

At the same time, she also publicly announced that she would withdraw from participating in this knight championship.

After all, Bianka's goal had been achieved, and there was no need to participate in what had become a bullying-like fight.

In this case, wouldn't it be better to leave some opportunities for others?

These successive announcements stunned those who were still immersed in the afterglow of Bianka's canonization as the [Bright Knight].

Leaving aside the matter of the infected, Bianka's withdrawal from the competition caused an uproar among her fans. A large group of people even blocked the door of the Knights.

It wasn't until someone came out to explain helplessly and handed out some autographs and photos that the fanatical fans gradually retreated, no longer affecting the members of the Knights.

As for the infected, they were already moved by what Bianka had said when she protected the city, and this wave of actions made them completely grateful and full of admiration.

It's important to note that the rules and regulations for infected individuals to participate in the competition that Bianka negotiated with the higher-ups are entirely different from those obtained by the Blood Knights in the original story.

Compared to the original story, where the infected had to fight like beasts and win to gain the right to participate in the competition, the direct registration qualification that Durandal secured for the infected was quite fair and equal.

To exaggerate a bit, Bianka's actions appeared advanced and even shocking no matter where they were placed on this continent. After all, too many places on this continent don't regard infected people as "people."

Because of Bianka's actions, the public opinion crisis surrounding [Blazing Axe Knight] Dikaiopolis was directly resolved, and he became the first infected knight openly active in the arena in the history of Kazimierz.

Not only that, but with Durandal's withdrawal, he also became the candidate with the best chance of winning the championship of this Kazimierz Major with his own strength.

However, to everyone's surprise, this [Bright Knight], the most talked-about infected knight, turned around and applied to join the Immortal Blade Knights after winning another game.

The most shocking thing is that the [Bright Knight] actually approved his application and announced to the public that they welcome infected knights to join.

In addition to causing another uproar among those who had not yet calmed down, Bianka's actions also allowed her Knights to absorb a number of strong infected knights.

Of course, if there is positive news and voices about something, there will always be negative ones, especially concerning the shocking things Bianka did.

However, since the capitalists did not fuel the fire due to the power of the [Bright Knight], the negative voices were too weak.

So weak, in fact, that Rita easily eliminated them privately.
