Hollow Knight: Hallownest
Chapter 61 Sainz
Royal sewer manhole.
"Roar!"
A majestic figure suddenly emerged from inside, startling the sentry patrolling on the side. The sentry who had just set up a defensive posture hurriedly bent down and saluted when he saw that the person coming was Orgrim.
"See you, Lord Knight!"
"Ah."
Orgrim's voice is pleasant. He likes to do things for His Majesty the King. This is a blessing. He has been tired of staying in the martial arts field since Hallownest was established and developed.
Logically speaking, every knight is unrestrained. As a symbol of Hallownest's force and virtue, the White King never restricts their freedom, but Orgrim doesn't want to go anywhere. He just feels like staying in the palace, One of the things that made him happy was staying close to the king.
Another thing was that Isma was free to be by his side.
Orgrim ran very fast and disappeared in front of the sentinel after a while.
"Ah~, the smell of the Lord Knight is still so unique and charming..."
One of the sentries looked at the retreating figure and said unconsciously.
"Yes."
Others nodded in agreement.
The establishment of the Royal Sewer can actually be traced back to the beginning of Hallownest's development. At that time, no one wanted to work down there, because it was not only laborious and time-consuming, but also caused a stink all over the body over a long period of time, and no matter how clean it was, it could only be reduced. This smell makes friends and relatives not want to get close to it.
But since Orgrim appeared in the championship, this situation has gradually reversed.
At first, people were very disgusted by the pungent odor emitted by this tall figure, thinking he was a homeless man from somewhere. The smell was simply disgusting, but every time he crushed him with his unparalleled awe-inspiring posture on the field, As he suppressed each opponent, the influence of the smell slowly dissipated in everyone's hearts.
The Tournament of Champions is the most special tournament ever, not just because it's groundbreaking, but because it's hosted by the King of Hallownest himself.
It is also true that in the early days of the establishment of Hallownest, a group of people with evil intentions also appeared in the competition. They launched an attack on King White while he was still pronouncing his sentence, trying to seize this holy land.
Just when everyone thought they were about to see the King of Hallownest take action in person, a red ball suddenly rushed out from the stage and hit the group of people with lightning speed. Not long after, they were defeated on the spot. Death blends into the gravel on the stage.
It was Orgrim who worked hard without caring about his own life.
In the end, when Orgrim became one of the five knights of the kingdom and was personally awarded the Defender's Crest by the King of Hallownest, people were surprised to find that the smell of those who were forced to work in the royal sewers was actually the same as This knight is very similar!
Isn't this an honor for a powerful person who respects him?
Since then, the supply of positions in the Royal Sewers has been somewhat in short supply, and it has also briefly set off a "smell wave" in the main city. Until later, Lu Ruien couldn't stand the smell that permeated the main city and ordered a ban. Then he got better.
"Lord Watcher!"
The elevator stopped slowly, and Orgrim walked up to Lurian and saluted.
When the smell gradually filled the Watcher's Spire, Lurian knew of Orgrim's arrival.
"Defender, long time no see."
Lurian smiled and helped him up, while calling the butler to bring the tea that had been prepared to him.
Orgrim was not polite when he saw this. After drinking it all, he placed the black figure beside Lurian.
"This must have been sent by the king."
"Exactly."
Orgrim nodded and continued:
"His Majesty the King said that this thing is at your disposal, Lord Watcher."
Lurian nodded and ignored the black figure for a while, calling Orgrim to sit aside.
"How is the king doing?"
Ever since he last read the letter sent by Hegmer, Lurian had been worried about the White King's situation. After all, the abyss was not a good thing.
"In my opinion, His Majesty the King's majesty remains the same, Lord Watcher, there is no need to worry."
"That's good."
Lurian breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Orgrim narrowly.
"What about Isma?"
"Isma is fine. What's wrong, Lord Watcher?"
"You pretend, just keep pretending. You know what I mean."
Lurian looked at Orgrim who lowered his head and his face was slightly red and chuckled.
"My mission has been completed, Lord Watcher, I have to go back."
Orgrim couldn't stand the way Lurian looked at him, so he stood up and left quickly.
"Be safe on the road, and come on~"
Lurian did not retain him. Orgrim had always been like this, rarely stopping anywhere else except the palace.
The elevator descended slowly, and Orgrim's figure gradually disappeared on the top of the tower.
"I really don't know why a person who is usually so carefree and brave can be so coy when talking about this."
Lurian laughed, and then walked towards the black figure. He could feel the king's will from it.
But he was troubled because he didn't need this thing. The housekeeper took care of all the complicated things in life, and he didn't know how to deal with government affairs.
After pacing in place for a while, Lu Ruien thought for a while. It was up to him to handle it anyway, so he might as well give it to other ministers.
With that said, he took the creation and left the Watcher's Spire.
Everyone in the City of Tears knows that the leader here is the Lord Watcher, but few people know that there are three ministers under him who jointly manage the government affairs of the main city.
Lurian went to the Tower of Love, the residence of Sainz, the head of the three ministers.
When he stepped into the Tower of Love, he still couldn't help but sigh. The decoration here would make ordinary people think of it as extravagant. Whether it was the patterned fence inside or the leather-wrapped wall tiles, it could be seen in Lurien or those who had served real nobles. In the eyes of people, this is considered to be the most frugal among the nobles.
What is really rare are the various collected strange objects contained in jars dotted around the side, such as specimens of unknown insects, luminous rocks, ancient fossils, etc.
When seeing Lurian's arrival, the guard quickly saluted and then went to inform Sainz, but he stopped him.
"Don't bother him, I'll go on my own."
"As ordered!"
Walking up, not long after, I saw a figure burying himself in a desk. There were government scrolls on the table and even beside the table legs. He was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window not far away, dealing with it.
"Saenz, are you still busy?"
Hearing the soft voice coming from behind, the figure sitting on the chair quickly turned around, and a smile appeared on his face when he discovered that the person coming was Lu Ruien.
"Lord Watcher, why do you have time to come to my humble home?"
Stopping what he was doing, Sainz wanted to get some tea or something from the side to entertain Lurian, but he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.
"That's true of the guard. You didn't even notify me when you came. You'll have to give it a good beating later."
"Haha, that's not necessary. I'm here to visit you. Why do I have the nerve to ask you to greet me?"
"It's heart-warming that your Excellency still cares so much about your subordinates. Please wait a moment, where did I put my tea cup..."
The income of the three ministers is considered to be top-notch in the City of Tears, but the man in front of him, Lu Ruien, can only understand it. After all, he is a person with the title of 'Collector' in the circle, and most of his salary over the years has been used by him. Come and buy some weird stuff, that’s why the Tower of Love looks like this.
"Stop looking for it. I'm just here to give you something. It won't waste much time."
"My lord is joking."
After hearing this, Sainz stopped searching and secretly decided to ask his guard to buy more cups to keep at his desk later.
"Hey, uh..."
Lurian pointed at the White King's creation beside him. He didn't know how to describe it for a moment and paused for a while.
"Anyway, I came here this time to give you this thing beside me."
After hearing this, Sainz approached the black figure and looked at it with bright eyes.
"Sir, is this?"
As a collector, he has definitely seen a lot in Hallownest over the years, but he has never heard of items like this.
"I can't explain this to you, you just need to know that this is a gift from the king."
"Kings?!"
"Given to me?!"
Sainz became even more excited when he heard this, and quickly looked at Lurian. After seeing his affirmative look, he couldn't help but jump.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, sir, I lost my temper."
"It's okay, just wait a moment."
Lurian stretched out his hand towards the black figure, and then white light appeared around him and disappeared after a moment.
"Okay, from now on it will obey your orders, use it well."
"As ordered!"
Sainz couldn't wait to take the black figure, put it aside, and bowed to thank him. Seeing that Lu Ruien was about to leave, he hurriedly walked to him and signaled that he wanted to see him off.
"Okay, this thing is given to you by the king. You don't need to be more polite to me. There is no need to give it to you. You have something to do, so I won't bother you anymore."
After rejecting Sainz, Lurain disappeared from his sight.
Looking at the black figure in front of him, Sainz gave it the first command with excitement:
"From now on, you are my steward and the steward of the Tower of Love, do you understand?"
Immediately, Sainz's heart echoed with its response.
"...Protect!..."
