ALL NOVEL Chapter 54
46. The knight meets.
This year, only three of us made it into the Knights Squad by letting me in.
After the Inaugural Ceremony, the location was changed and a celebration was held for the knights.
There are tiaras, queens, and even regents who did not attend the Syriac ceremony.
… awesome luxury.
Not as luxurious as during the sight of the recital ceremony, but this one is luxurious enough. It was decorated with an expensive condiment to be laid down, unlike between tradition and format-oriented glasses, with a glossy curtain that would also be elegant on the ceiling.
More long tables with wine glasses and piles of bottles.
Not Lord Pride this time, His Majesty the Queen herself greeted me with a toast.
Having joined the Knights Squad, I am too busy greeting each heavy man to drink.
It’s an honor, thank you, if I let you keep up with your expectations, I get tired of being too repetitive and plain.
I also greeted Clark, my father and deputy chief of the Knights, once in greeting them all, but it smelled terribly bright.
My father and Clark laughed and slapped me on the shoulder, but the moment we both had eyes, I wanted to cry so badly. Actually, there was something I wanted to say, but when I said it now, I was going to really come in and stop. My father missed the gap, and I missed it, but as soon as I did, Clark raised his voice and laughed. “Parents and children of similar people” annoyed me, so I thought I couldn’t see anything else, so I shot him in the stomach. It’s over the armor, so you’ll be fine, but I was coughing up lightly. Zarami.
I was very nervous about greeting Her Majesty the Queen. It’s extra to think this is Dear Pride’s, Tiara’s, and Style’s mother.
When I greeted him, he quickly smiled, “Really, you have the style and the sword…” No, I know you have the permission of Her Majesty the Queen, but I’m still sorry that it’s too much for me to be auditioning with the first prince, Style. Besides, my dad said yesterday that I also had a slight cold sweat when I remembered the story that I was the reason for Stile’s wording…
“Keep up the style, Pride and Tiara. Thank you.
I was relieved when you said that.
I also greeted the Regent and His Royal Highness the King, but it was almost close to the true face, because of the atmosphere similar to that of the Knights Commander’s father, or vice versa.
Next, Master Pride… was very nervous. My heart still sucks just to see that face, though I’ve seen him like every day since I started doing my auditions with Style. He has always told me that it is good to have no honorable salutation, but only this person is like God in me anymore, so no honorable salutation was seriously impossible. “Congratulations, Arthur,” the smile that made me laugh dazzled me to death.
Afterwards my greeting to Stayle was… tedious. That frigid smile and reverence for his public place is so annoying. “Congratulations on this one, Lord Arthur,” he laughed with a smile, probably on his thoughtful face, although I also gave it back in a respectful tone. I think it’s tough to be the first prince.
However, only the moment I saw Tiara laughing funny at me talking in a respectful tone unlike usual when I then greeted Tiara and said in a small voice, “That’s good, Tiara, laugh more” was completely vegan.
I left the scene once because the last person I wanted to say hello to seemed to be still talking to another knight for a long time.
The knight in sync recommends the wine and looks around with it in his hand.
… Really, you’ve come this far.
Honestly, I don’t care how much I thank my father for doing the archery from scratch for almost a year, and for the style he has followed in the archery with me ever since.
Think back to your earlier recital ceremony.
It was like a dream to be able to take an oath as a knight in the midst of an exchange of promises with Lord Pride two years ago.
I’ve never forgotten two years ago for a moment.
I wouldn’t have stood here right now if it weren’t for him. That’s all I can assure you.
‘Let’s promise. I will wait for you until I die.
Tears seeped by accident when Lord Pride received the Knight’s Proclamation. He said he was back here again as a knight when he made good on his promise.
As soon as I looked up, the pride that looked down at me overlapped with the pride of two years ago.
“Don’t you… want to be so… strong?”
Strong, I could be.
For your sake, to protect those you want to protect… and those I care about.
Would this have paid off a little?
At that time, to the great grace you gave me.
When I thought of it, I accidentally said it was just after the ritual, but the words leaked.
“… for two years, I’ve kept you waiting.
Will this man remember me?
About me, who was still powerless and powerless and could only mourn.
It could be one of the hundreds of millions that has nothing to do with this guy. Still, I don’t mind.
I will fulfill my vows as a knight and my vows two years ago. From now on, bet everything.
If I thought so and stared at Master Pride, he opened his eyes a little surprised and then… smiled at me with his eyes seeped with tears.
“Welcome back… Arthur.
Yes, you answered me.
My skin still feels like my whole body hair is going upside down.
He remembered me.
Lord Pride also promised then…
I could feel it coming back again.
Naturally, I didn’t become a knight and satisfy everything. Instead, it’s coming up.
As a knight, I must honor Lord Pride…
“… Lord Sir…. Lord Arthur…. Hey, Arthur.
Gu, suddenly someone can twist my finger up against me. I was surprised and accidentally almost dropped the glass I had with my opposite hand.
“What?”
Looking back, there was Stile.
With a creepy smile on my face, I was like, “Are you okay? I’m going to say.
“It was blurry, so I thought something was wrong…. greetings, there’s one more left, right? Looks like the conversation is over now.
When they looked at me like that, it really seemed like I was just done talking and I was free.
For once, they just really came to call me. Though it is very unnecessary to have my fingers twisted. “Thank you,” he thanked and rushed to the person.
……
“Oh, Lord Arthur Beresford, right? No rumors. Congratulations on your appointment as a knight this time.
When the man noticed me walking over, he slowly smiled at me with his graceful movements.
“Thank you, Chancellor Gilbert.
I exchanged greetings with the man as he rang the wine we had in one hand.
