Chapter 24(1/2)

Twenty-Four·Promoted to Kingdom Knight

"Chief Creel."

"Lord Creel!"

Lelan and Luther Huss stood up to show their respects.

The captain of the White Wolf Knight Company did not look at Lailan. He first focused on the acolyte on the left and said with approval: "I have some impressions of you. Your name is Luther Huss, right?"

The latter nodded repeatedly. It was a great honor for him to be remembered by a White Wolf Knight.

"If you hadn't found me in time last time, more people would have died a few minutes later, so you deserve a lot of credit! In addition, these days, you have cooperated with the battle priests and witch hunters to investigate the Chaos sect, and one more person

What a great job!”

After that, Creel shouted to his brother at the end of the long table: "Won't your lord give Luther Huss some reward?"

"Of course I want a reward!"

Leif smiled and clapped his hands lightly.

A castle guard walked in from the side door holding a tray. On the tray in front of him, on a white robe with a neatly folded collar and embroidered with gold, was an emerald-studded belt.

"This priest's robe and belt were originally intended to be given to Pastor Zeis as a reward for baptism, but who would have thought that Pastor Zeis received a heavy reward, so these gifts seemed inappropriate."

Leif said solemnly: "Now, I will give you a gift, Luther Huss, as a reward!"

The castle guard immediately walked up to the acolyte and handed the tray over with a solemn expression.

"this"

Luther Huss looked at the tray that was handed to him with a nervous look on his face. He didn't know whether to accept it or not. He was at a loss for a moment.

Because of the magical wind in his body, Lailan felt the specialness of this emerald-encrusted belt.

Faintly, there is a layer of luster on the surface of the emerald, which can give the user of this jewelry a certain degree of resistance to magic.

At least it’s a green grade piece of equipment!

Just give it away as soon as you say it? The nobles are really generous.

Creel patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "Luther Huss, just accept it! Don't you even dare to refuse the earl's reward?"

"I"

The acolyte was still hesitant and couldn't help but look at Lailan beside him to seek his opinion.

Creel looked at Lailan calmly, his palms sweating.

Just when he was about to comfort him again, Lailan smiled and said: "Luther Huss, take it, you deserve it."

Seeing that Lailan supported him in accepting this gift, the acolyte had no reason to refuse anymore. After receiving the handed tray, he bowed deeply to Leif. (Church members do not need to kneel when facing ordinary nobles)

"Thank you, Lord Count!"

"No gifts, no gifts!"

Leif waved his hand and said with a smile: "I heard that you are usually in the church, and even Pastor Zeis's questions can't trouble you? Okay, okay, it won't be long before you can truly wear the priest's robe!

"

This was the greatest praise for an acolyte. Luther Huss bowed deeply again. The excitement in his heart was beyond words.

Lailan patted Luther Huss on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "The Earl is right, you will be a good priest in the near future, and maybe the future of the empire will be changed because of you."

Creel felt that the time was ripe, and took the opportunity to look at each other with Leif. After seeing the latter nod slightly, he hurriedly left the living room.

"Your Majesty, what is he?" Lailan looked at Creel's hurried back and couldn't help but ask.

Leif stood up, looked straight at Lailan, and said solemnly: "Lailan, for your military exploits and contributions, I have also prepared a reward for you."

"My reward?"

Lairon had already anticipated that having lunch together was not as simple as it seemed, and any nobleman would be rewarded for his actions, both in terms of degree and influence.

It’s just a matter of whether there is more or not.

Lailunkong has a purple-grade Heram war hammer as a weapon. Although the attack of the war hammer is powerful, the user himself is not immune to beatings!

So far, Lailan did not have a decent piece of armor, an infantry breastplate and a tattered and patched military uniform. On the battlefield, it could only be regarded as a comfort to himself, at least he still had some armor to wear.

It doesn’t matter that what Lailan wants to fight is a human being. Individuals are so powerful that ordinary people can’t do anything to them.

But what he has to face are all kinds of monsters and monsters in the old world! When encountering giant beasts, even walking through an iron wall is useless!

A green grade belt was awarded to Luther Huss for his hard work.

Then, with both merit and hard work, you can at least get one piece of blue grade equipment!

"Laylan, come with me."

Leif waved to him and said in a serious tone: "Luther Huss, please wait in the living room for a while. If you have any questions, Butler Mel will solve it for you."

"Go ahead, Brother Lelan, the Earl must have something better for you!" Luther Huss didn't care about this and grinned.

Lailan adjusted his clothes a little, took a deep breath to calm down, and quickly followed.

After wandering all the way through several aisles, I stepped onto the stairs leading to the third floor of the castle.

"The reward I give you is very heavy. It is a responsibility! It is also a choice."

Leif stood in front of a luxuriously decorated wooden door, which looked like a private prayer room. He turned his back to the wooden door, stared at Lailan, and said in a deep voice: "Laylan, are you ready?"

"Um!"

Lelan nodded.

He has been mentally prepared. There is a mountain of gold coins behind the door, and his eyelids will not move!

The door opens from the inside.

When you see it, a whole blue and white curtain with a white wolf pattern hangs from the ceiling and hangs on the original wooden floor. The lighting in the prayer hall is excellent. The four walls of the hall are made of stained glass and murals covering the walls.

Filled, it is a place that combines religious connotations, aristocratic beliefs, and imperial decrees.

Leif opened the first curtain from the middle and stepped in. Lairon followed his steps and stood inside the curtain.

Four knights in silver-white plate armor stood inside the curtain, facing forward,

The wolfskin cloaks with the white wolf logo on the shoulders of the knights hang down to the ground. They hold unsheathed swords in both hands and stand motionless, like four lifelike silver statues, standing quietly.

All white wolf knights!

Everything in the prayer hall was solemn and solemn, giving Lailan a sense of déjà vu, and he couldn't help but think of a word in his mind.

Knighting ceremony!

"Could the reward given to me be a knighthood?"

Lailan's heart felt hot, he cleared his mind, and tried his best to get rid of distracting thoughts to avoid affecting his thinking.

Rewarding a baronet is tantamount to fantasy, but for Lailan now, the lowest knighthood is also very good!

In the old world, knights with knighthoods and no fiefdoms were collectively called knights errant.

They only have a basic set of equipment and war horses. They join the battle when called upon by the principality and fight in the name of their family.

The knights errant are the most impulsive. Their knight equipment is extremely fancy, and they have various family crests and holy seals to show their status.

Although they do not have their own fiefdoms, the army will pay salaries according to the standards of great swordsmen.

In daily life, a knight does not lack special economic sources, such as caravan escorts, villages under threat, and sudden wars. When necessary, knights errant will also accept mission entrustments.

The next level up from the knight errant is the knight of the kingdom.

In addition to the title of knight, they also received a fief granted to them by the local lord or principality.

Too many knights errant hope to express themselves in battle in order to gain recognition from the nobles and become true knights and nobles by being promoted to kingdom knights.

Being awarded the title of Knight Errant has already achieved a class leap, from the lowest level to the middle level.

Earl Delavan looked solemn. After taking a deep look at Lailan, he walked into the second curtain.

After a short moment, Creel poked his head out from the second curtain and said with a sincere expression: "Come in, Lailan, you deserve this."

Two knights stepped forward and opened the curtain with the hilts of their swords.

The scene in front of me is a scene that ordinary people only dream of!

Count Draven stood in front of the statue of Ulric, the "White Wolf God of War". The blazing fireplace flame at the foot of the statue symbolized the never-extinguishing sacred fire of wolves. Two gray white wolves grinned forward, accompanying You

Next to the Rick statue.

To Leif's right, a priest wearing a black cassock stood quietly. He had a howling wolf emblem on his chest, and a whole tuft of hard wolf hair decorated the collar and waist of the cassock.

The iron ring on his forehead symbolizes the doctrine of strict self-discipline. This is a follower of Ulric, the White Wolf Pastor.

Under the steps in front of Leif, there was a group of kneeling mats. Four White Wolf Knights entered from outside the curtain, lined up on both sides, holding long swords tightly, with the sword tips pointed at the ceiling.

The white wolf priest in black cassock stared at Lailan and said with a majestic voice: "In the witness of my lord Yurik, as a descendant of Yurik, bend your knees and respect my lord and the earl!"

Lailan couldn't help but breathe quickly, and after a moment of hesitation.

Under the gazes of Pastor Ulric and the White Wolf Knight, he clenched his right fist close to his chest and knelt on one knee in front of Leif.
