Praise of the Light to the Dark Knight

The Oslant Imperial Legion has the right to take over the fortress, but it does not have the right to torture the Duke of Catilla to hand over the leadership of the Holy White Knight.

Kevin couldn't help rolling his eyes, silly knight, the dignified leader of the temple actually followed his old brother's advice?

Duke Katilla insisted that he had never seen any leader of the Holy White Knights here.

With a cold face, the priest stopped the knights who wanted to rush up and beat up the dragging duke, and at the same time released his mental power to search for the whereabouts of Mevis.

He rolled his eyes away but couldn't help sighing—Mayvis was probably careless because he was once a relative.

After all, although a knight like Mevis seems very unreasonable, he once mistakenly protected the necromancer as a victim.

The magnificence of the Silver Heart Fortress is beyond the imagination of many people who have never seen it.

Not everyone is lucky enough to be born in such a great country as Oslant or Holy Dragon. Although everyone says that the adjacent Kingdom of Leo is full of sin, it is still considered sin. A luxurious flower blooms in the soil. Flowers, dirty money and flesh and blood flowed from underground auctions, and black blood flowed from the dark to the whole continent, but on the wider Northwest Plain, many people's lives were as simple as the yellow mud under their feet. The worst thing that can happen is that the hens at home haven't laid eggs for a month.

Some people condemn the absurd and extravagant kingdom of sin, while others live so poorly that they have never seen any crime.

Poverty is not an appropriate adjective. It should be said simply, because although they don't have any gold and jewelry in their lives, they don't need these to live. The clay-fired utensils are enough to hold the ale from the autumn harvest.

Towns and villages and large pastures are scattered on this plain. Many people here are believers of the God of Shepherds. They simply believe in the gods who bring spring and bless the wild and wilderness. Few of them are even Believers of the God of Light, fairness, justice, and virtue are not as real as bread.

The Kantanaroa Temple shelters this place. Many of the Holy White Knights in the temple come from the plains. Every year at the beginning of March, the Holy White Knights will line up from the Holy White City and rush to the vast plains, burning for three days in front of the wilderness temple. After the bonfire was extinguished, they put on holy helmets, chanted the names of the gods of the pastoral land, and danced a dance to pray for spring.

Mavis is not a plain person, so he is very uncomfortable with being a knight and having to dance...for nothing else, because his dancing is too ugly.

So every time he goes to the ceremony, he fishes in troubled waters. It is an honor for the Holy White Knight to dance at the ceremony. ——Ah, my friend likes to be tolerant, so modest!Because Mevis is the best among the younger generation of holy white knights, and he shined in several battles against evil mages. If he even leads the ritual dance, other holy white knights will really have no way out!

Life on the plain was very peaceful, and for the first time in history there were ghosts haunting the plain.

That day was the preparation before the Spring Festival. Meiweis went to inspect the villages around the Wilderness Temple, and suddenly heard a scream in the wheat field.

A force of undead rushed towards him.

Mevis immediately rushed out with a brisk stride, and grabbed the "victim" who had fallen on the field ridge. The man was thin, and even if he wore many layers of toga, he would only look slimmer. Si immediately protected the person in his arms, and chopped the half-rotten terrifying undead creature in front of him to pieces with a single blow of his sword.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Mevis comforted softly, "This is a very low-level undead creature, it just looks scary."

It looks pretty scary.

The young man in the robe was huddled in his arms, his soft chestnut hair was scattered on his trembling shoulders, and when the sun shone, it was a bit close to dark gold, he carefully glanced at the pile of horrible corpses through the gaps in his hair The meat, sobbing again in fright, hid back on the generous chest of the knight.

Meivis frowned. There were no traces of other undead creatures around, nor any traces of necromancers casting spells. The corpse on the ground was an old man, and his death was horrific. Thoroughly, there is still a little flesh and tendons attached to the head, and there are many cut wounds on the body, stubble of bones and slipped internal organs. Even if the corpse does not pretend to be an undead creature, it is still a problem to lie on the scene of the crime. It was a terrible thing.

Not to mention that when the old man was standing just now, his head was dangling with brains flowing from his neck like a hanging ball, no wonder it frightened people like this.

There is a new grave in the field, and the old man seems to have climbed out of the grave.

"He won't hurt you anymore, I will protect you." Meivis comforted softly, the young man in his arms was still shrinking in like a frightened little animal.

At this time, he noticed that the young man was wearing a soft and expensive robe, which was definitely not the dress that a plain village would wear.

Wearing a gray velvet cloak, inside is a dark red robe. The skirt and cuffs of the robe have low-key but gorgeous embroidery on closer inspection. There is also a badge on the young man's thin chest—the badge of Reina Yarra College.

Meiweisi understood that Reina Yaruo Academy, a well-known comprehensive institution in the whole continent, the scholars in its Mage Academy are wearing red robes like this, which marks the status of research scholars - this person can be regarded as quite young and promising , he looks like he is only in his 20s, and he can already wear a scholar's red robe.

After a while, the young man calmed down, and immediately left the knight's embrace. He lowered his head and seemed to be blushing.

"What's your name?" Mavis still asked gently.

"...Kevin." The young man replied coldly, but couldn't hide the blush on his face, he explained, "One of my students... her father died, and she hasn't come back for a long time, so I came to see her. "

Mevis' complexion changed, and he quickly covered it up—the Wilderness Temple received a report that the village head of a village was murdered. He died a terrible death, and was hacked repeatedly by something suspected of being a blunt ax But the temple didn't help to investigate the murderer. The daughter of the village head who had been studying away from home for many years came back and quickly buried her father.

Later, Mevis and the others found out the reason... The village head was so dignified that he actually harmed many boys and girls in the village. No matter who hacked him to death, the village felt happy.

The Holy White Knight didn't care about it, Meiweis frowned, walked over to check the corpse he had just hacked... No!His eyes became sharp. These wounds cannot be cut out with a blunt axe, because no blunt ax can carry the power of undead!This corpse died of undead spells, so after death, it was tricked by the residual power of the undead!

He made a decisive decision and notified the Holy White Knights to transfer their manpower.

The holy white knight who came quickly searched the whole village, and the villagers looked out one after another, looking curiously at the knights with black armor and white emblem coming in and out. Soon, suspicious points were discovered.

"The village chief's daughter is missing."

Mevis immediately went to the village chief's house, and Kevin also followed behind him step by step, carrying his robe, as if he was afraid of encountering undead creatures again, so he had to follow him to feel safe. Mavis hesitated, but finally did not refuse him , I don’t know where the necromancer is hiding, but it’s the safest to follow him... Especially that kind of staring eyes... Mavis hid for a while, pretending not to feel the strong sight, and plunged into the room of the village chief’s daughter .

Because the person had disappeared, the Holy White Knight had no scruples in searching the house, and turned upside down. On the back of the carpet covered by a pile of women's underwear, he found a magic circle painted with blood on it.

"She was kidnapped by the Necromancer?" The old woman in the village looked terrified, "Poor child... She was tortured like that by the beast father when she was a child, and when she grew up, the old ghost finally died. Have a good time…”

Mavis noticed that Kevin's hands trembled when he touched the dried blood. He squatted beside Kevin and said, "This is your student?"

Kevin lowered his eyes, not wanting to look at the magic circle, he said: "Yes, her name is Adeline, and she was my student when she was 15 years old."

"That's right, that girl ran away when she was fourteen or fifteen."

A bunch of villagers joined the ranks of mourning. The girl they talked about was kind and gentle. Although she was abused by her father and even...but she was still full of love for the world. However, more than three years have passed. They saw the adult Ai Delin, after her father's death, was frowning, and hadn't had a word with the villagers before something happened again.

"Good souls will be blessed." Mavis stood up and said firmly to them, "or at least... I will avenge her."

The magic circle sent out a wisp of undead power fluctuations, and Mevis almost grabbed Kevin's wrist and dragged him back to his arms. Kevin's whole body froze, and the holy white knight had checked him up and down. all over.

"Be careful!" Mevis reprimanded, "The power of the undead will corrupt people if you don't pay attention, follow obediently and don't be curious!"

Kevin: "...that's a bloodline curse spell that only works on the cursed and their direct bloodlines."

Mevis looked at him in surprise and admiration: "You actually know so much? You are indeed a scholar of Reina Arrow."

Kevin broke free from his arms and remained silent.

The necromancer who cast the curse was obviously a novice, or his level was not very good. The traces hidden in the village were quickly discovered by the holy white knights one by one. It is not enough for them to understand the erosion of undead power. At this time, Kevin played a very important role. He taught the villagers how to avoid breeding corruption and disease, and prevent the infection of land and water sources. Although he has repeatedly emphasized that the blood curse will not cause large-scale pollution, but the villagers still pestered him to ask him to check his chicken coop.

So in the evening, Kevin was dumbfounded with a basket of eggs.

Mevis helped him accept the thank-you gifts from the villagers, and it took a lot of perseverance to resist touching his hair like a cat.

"Thank you for helping us so much."

Kevin said awkwardly: "No, this is what I should have done."

"Aren't the academics in the academy immersed in knowledge and don't care about external things? This is the first time I have seen a kind scholar like you. If all scholars are like you, it will be a blessing for people." Meiweisi said Concealed praise.

Kevin fell into a strange silence again, and after a long time he asked: "You holy white knights, don't you all hate necromancers?"
