"Hey, eat slowly, I haven't eaten yet." Hugging Eloline's neck from behind, Likalo rubbed her face affectionately: "Lin, you are too impatient." "So what's going on?" "My father asked me to go today and told me that he had established a knight order." "The Knights?" "Well...he said it was a gift for me, or for us." Wilfin Edfallon is a duke. As a noble lord, in addition to ordinary standing army soldiers, he naturally also has elite knights under his command. Knights are a high-level military unit on the battlefield. If used properly, they can influence the outcome of a battle. Even in peacetime, the fight against monsters mainly relies on the strength of knights. Today, the World Federation is maintaining peace throughout the continent, and there are no large monsters within the territory of Ed Fallon City, so there is no need to maintain the existence of knights. Wilfin already had an order of knights under his command, so why did he suddenly want to create a new one?
"Father said that the new knight order can also select members from among the common people, and he gave me full authority." "Oh? A knight order of commoners?" Knights are different from cavalry. In the empire's military organization, all knights are selected from the nobility, which ensures the individual quality and equipment level of the knights. If it is aimed at civilians, the levels will naturally be uneven, and civilians do not have enough money to buy their own equipment, so they can only pay for it themselves. Eloline really wanted to complain, did her father feel that he had too much money and had no place to spend it? But she soon figured out what was going on. Her father was doing this to fulfill Licaro's childhood dream. The memories of their time together in Edfallon Forest seemed to be just yesterday. The scene of the little blonde girl sitting next to the little black dragon, excitedly talking about becoming a knight in the future, appeared in front of Eloline again. Before Likalo recovered the evil god's memory, she had formed a knight group in the Kingdom of Lombard. It seemed to be called the Crescent Knights? Unfortunately, she was inexperienced at that time, which indirectly led to the destruction of the knight group. That incident became a knot in Likalo's heart. So much time has passed, and no one knows whether she has ever come out of the shadow. Eloline really wanted to hear Licaro's story about her time as the head of the Knights of Lombard. (A separate volume will be published later, describing the experience of the Knights) Likalo's expression was normal now. Although it might awaken her painful memories of the past, Ai Luolin still asked: "Lily, have you thought about the Knights of the past?" "Of course, their names and their faces have always been in my mind." There was no hint of sadness in Licaro's words, and it was unclear whether she was deliberately suppressing it. People's inherent impression of gods is that they are high above others and have no feelings for anything in the world. But in Eloline's opinion, as a deity, Licaro's behavior and state of mind are no different from those of ordinary people. This is a good thing, God also has emotions, and God can also fall in love with mortals. "So Lily, you agreed?" "Of course, becoming a knight was my childhood dream."
Licaro even thought out the outline of the Knights' future actions, which is to punish evil and promote good! Although peace has been restored between nations across the continent, violence and crime still exist within any country. Because everyone is different, among the tens of millions of people in the Silver Eagle Empire, there will always be a small number of individuals with evil intentions. Thieves and thugs who rob houses, greedy businessmen who oppress civilians, and even criminals who flee after killing people are all targets that need to be cracked down on. "I have already thought of a name for the Knights. It will be called the Little Black Dragon Knights." "Poof!" Eloline, who was drinking water, spit it out. "Say it again, what knight order?" "The Little Black Dragon Knights." "Why do you have to give it such a weird name? Isn't the Black Dragon Knights cool? Why add a small word!?" “Hehehe… don’t get too excited.” Lika Luo smiled, “Actually, I had this idea when I was a kid.” Back in the Edfallon Forest, Licaro taught the little black dragon to read every day. Later, when the little black dragon gradually understood what she said, she often told the little black dragon about her dream of being a knight. She was still young at that time, and when considering the name of the Knights Templar, the first thing she thought of was her good friend - the little black dragon. But later, when she went to Lombardy at the age of seventeen to create the Knights, she hesitated when choosing a name. Because at that time, she felt that the "Little Black Dragon Knights" were so shameful... The moon phase that night happened to be a new moon, so she named the Knights of the Crescent Moon. "You knew shame back then, why don't you feel ashamed now?" “Because I’ve matured.” Licaro poked Eloline in the face with her hand. "This has nothing to do with maturity, okay... woooo." "What are you talking about?" Likalo suddenly changed her attitude. "This is my favorite name. Don't you like it?" "I……" "You said you liked everything about me." Eloline was stunned. She asked back, "Do you like everything about me?" "Of course I do!" "Okay, okay, let's just call it the Little Black Dragon Knights." Eloline finally compromised, but she had to find a way to turn the situation around. This name is actually nothing special, it’s just that as a little black dragon I feel ashamed. In the eyes of others, "The Little Black Dragon Knights" is cute, like a name from a fairy tale. It turns out that adding a "small" can instantly change the style.
= PS: Delete the extra volumes first, and add them later when you open them Extra: Dragon Knight's Oath ⑧ Lily is really strict The Knights Templar were successfully established and everything went very smoothly. The empire's political situation is stable, public security is good, and there are no signs of war on the mainland. There are almost no magical beasts in the city of Edfallon and the surrounding villages and towns, and the patrol teams also ensure that the trade routes are safe and unobstructed. In this situation, Duke Wilfin could easily be accused of wasting finances by establishing a knighthood for his daughter. After all, ordinary city defense forces are enough to fight against bandits and criminals, and there is no need to send elite knights. It's a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. However, the empire was a centralized state that delegated some power to the nobility; it was not a civilian republic. Therefore, the nobles still have supreme power, and no one will say anything even if they act willfully. The development after the establishment of the Knights Templar was somewhat unexpected. In the city of Edfallon, except for a small number of people who said it was a waste of resources, most others, especially young people, rushed to sign up. The reason is simple, this is a knighthood order for civilians! As long as you pass the assessment and become a formal knight, you can escape from the civilian class! Knights were the lowest class of nobles in the empire. The best of them could have a village as their retainers, but their status was far higher than that of commoners, as evidenced by the fact that they had the power to pardon some crimes after making mistakes. And even though there is no war, you can still accumulate military merits by maintaining law and order or performing Knight Order missions. If you are appreciated by your superior lord, you can be granted a noble title! Unfortunately, although many people signed up, the assessment was very difficult. The probability of being selected is about one in ten thousand. The person in charge of the assessment was none other than the leader of the Knights, Licaro. The test is very simple. You just need to be able to withstand Licaro's attack for thirty seconds. Likalo does not use the power of the gods, but even so, few people can pass the test under her attack. It was only then that people realized that the eldest daughter of the Duke's family was not just a vase, and was not a weak magician as rumored. Her knowledge of swordsmanship was pure and pure. Since there were too many applicants, Licaro simply changed the selection method to a competitive contest, with applicants divided into groups of dozens to compete, and only the winners were eligible to participate in the assessment. It was an ordinary day. Lika Luo defeated several applicants for the assessment and then returned home. Eloline would prepare meals in advance and wait for her at home, like a virtuous wife. "Lily, you are really giving them no face." Eloline threw herself into Licaro's arms and rubbed her body affectionately. “Harsh conditions are good for them.”
"So far, only five members have joined the Knights..." "Take your time. Those selected are the elites." "Okay, okay, you are the leader, everything is up to you." Eloline is the vice-captain of the Knights Templar, but she doesn't take care of anything and usually just follows Licaro, the captain. But she is not a mascot. Her existence is the meaning of the name "Little Black Dragon Knights", but no one knows it. "Let's go shopping downtown after dinner?" Licaro suggested. The city of Ed Fallon is developing at a rapid pace, and the city's appearance will undergo a major change in a very short period of time, so you won't get bored even if you visit it repeatedly. Every time this happy couple goes out, they receive blessings from people on the street. Although many young men were heartbroken by the reality that the two were in love, as they accepted the fact, they actually became the guardians of Eloline and Likalo's relationship. This is probably the most outrageous thing that has happened in recent times. Some young people, holding high the banner of protecting lesbian romance, have actually gathered together and formed an organization similar to a fan club. In addition to ordinary people, it even attracted some more capable people, such as writers, painters, poets, etc. They began to re-create the love story between Licaro and Eloline and spread it far away. The power of the Imperial Duke's family has surpassed that of many kings of kingdoms. Therefore, after the New Year celebrations, the names of Licaro and Elorin were known to many people even in the distant western continent. Gradually, Licaro discovered that as a god of killing, she actually gained the power of faith. In other words, there are some extremely fanatical "Lily Guardians". Unfortunately, Eloline is not a god, and she cannot feel the increasing power of faith. Artists' creations will help stories spread and become more beautiful through the embellishment of words and pictures. After the war that swept across the entire continent ended, with the development of science and technology and the improvement of productivity, people gradually began to pursue art and entertainment. So it became the current situation. To be honest, although Eloline and Licaro were mentally prepared at the beginning, they did not expect that they would become so famous in the end. "By the way, Lily, can we put our wedding on the agenda?" "Are you so anxious?" "Aren't you ready yet?" "No, I'm always available, but..." "Just what?" "Alas." Likalo sighed, "There is something I just can't let go of." "It's Xinglan's story, right?" Elorin immediately guessed Likalo's current sorrow. Now the whole world has entered a period of peace, but Xing Lan, the god of creation who created everything and gave meaning to everything, is about to face the end of his life. Although Likalo said that she didn't have many feelings for Xinglan, Xinglan was still her mother after all, the mother who truly created her divine body.
"Lily, please take some time to visit Xinglan again. I wonder how she is doing now." "Um……" Past memories reappeared in Licaro's mind. As one of the gods labeled as evil gods, she had endured countless pains and malice, and destroyed countless lives. She should have hated Xing Lan who controlled her fate, but she couldn't hate him now. Xinglan has less than a year left to live, which is really pitifully short for a god. If there is a chance, everyone wants to save Xinglan. "Lin, you know, Xinglan said that if she were still alive when we hold our wedding, she would definitely come to attend."
