Hans failed to slay the dragon, resulting in the death of his friend, his dream was broken, and he was depressed. William's mood was not much better because he was being supported by a ghoul.
Hans thought about the memories of the day, and scenes after scenes that looked like movie scenes appeared in his mind, which lingered like a nightmare.
The evil dragon is so strong, too strong.
The huge body of more than ten meters can smash the soldiers on the ground into pulp just by falling heavily.
Flying high in the sky, it can dodge their bow and arrow attacks one after another. Its huge and bloated body does not affect its flexibility. It is like a flexible bird, soaring freely in the air. For them, that is The attack from the sky was like a nightmare.
The indestructible dragon scales are a hundred times better than the knight's armor, arrows cannot harm him, and even the knight's spear can only leave a faint white mark on its scales.
The dragon's sharp claws can easily tear apart the knight's armor and pull the knights off their horses. The horses are afraid of the dragon's power and dare not move forward. In the end, they are roasted to death by the flames sprayed by the dragon.
This is not a dragon slaying in which the dragon is regarded as prey in the story, but a unilateral and one-sided massacre of human beings by the evil dragon.
William looked for his companions in his former village, feeling melancholy, not because he thought of the nightmare scenes before, but because he was full of fear for this era.
He may never return to his original world. William has his own family in the original world and is full of nostalgia for the original world. The unexpected time travel did not make him mentally prepared to come to another world.
"Dark Blue, give me more!"
William said subconsciously, and suddenly the atmosphere became quiet. A crow croaked on the tree. Hans looked at William doubtfully and asked, "What were you shouting just now?"
William wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand, smiled awkwardly but politely, and did not answer Hans' question. He lamented in his heart that he really had no protagonist life, and after traveling through time, he didn't even have any cheats.
Hans didn't take it seriously and moved the corpses on the battlefield. The strength of the nearby mercenary group was enough to shock the Thorne Kingdom. However, they were still so powerless in the face of the evil dragon, as fragile as a human baby.
"William, I'm sorry!"
Hans moved the corpses away from the battlefield and looked for the corpses of his companions. He said with a guilty tone, and there was deep self-blame in his words.
"Why do you say that!" William said unexpectedly.
"Because when we defected to the Brave Lord together, my father was always opposed to it. I don't understand why he objected. Did he want to worry about me making achievements and surpassing my brother? This is what I thought at the time, Therefore, I took everyone away without even consulting my father, who is a knight."
Hans said with self-blame that knights are the backbone of this world, and even the baron only has two knights in his hands.
Knight is a profession that almost everyone in this world dreams of. Not only Hans, but even William and hell Hess and Kun all dream of becoming knights.
If you want to become a knight, you must become a knight's retinue. From a young age, you must go to the home of a familiar knight to serve the knight, take care of the horse, clean the armor, keep the weapons, and learn the fighting skills of using spears and swords.
According to the rules of this era, if you want to become a knight, you must first pay for your own war horse and corresponding weapons and equipment. These rules that have been passed down since ancient times have completely cut off the dreams of poor people who want to become knights and ride on war horses to gallop on the battlefield.
Although William and his party were all free people with good family backgrounds, they didn't have to worry about starvation at most. However, it was obviously impossible to support a war horse for fighting and armor that could be used as a noble family heirloom. Night stories.
The value of a set of knight armor is equivalent to half a manor.
Even if both horses and armor are available, it will not work if there is no corresponding knight skills and a knight teacher to teach by words and deeds. Therefore, with both war horses and armor, and knights as retinues, only minor nobles and knights have the status. Only the first and third sons have these qualifications.
Although Hans was a knight's retinue, his father was a genuine knight. It's just that it's not that simple for him to become a knight. The baron only has two knights' quotas. If he wants to be promoted, he must find another way out.
Even if Hans is the illegitimate son of a baron, it is impossible to become a knight. The promotion of knights requires the permission of the lord or king.
Giving the knight a manor as a fief is only superficial. The real essence is that the lord or king gives his authority to the knight, and this authority is the holy seal.
Only with the lord's permission can knight servants be promoted to knights and awaken extraordinary powers through rituals. Granting too many knight seals will cause their power to decline.
Emperor, king, duke, marquis, earl, viscount, baron, knight, the world has a very strict hierarchy, and the recognition of qualifications is like a person in a sense.
William touched his head and recalled the setting of extraordinary powers in this world, which always reminded him of a game inexplicably.
"This is also our mutual decision. There is absolutely no point in listening to the words of the old man and the woman. My father is old and my mother is nagging and doesn't even know a few words. How can I listen to them?"
William said calmly that this was not what he meant, but what his predecessor William and everyone thought.
The old people chatter endlessly, and the age gap between them makes it difficult for both parties to understand each other. Young people always easily question each other's wisdom accumulated through experience.
"Ah! It's so hot."
Hans suddenly exclaimed, and the sudden sound made William feel strange. He looked in the direction of William and found a gorgeous sword that fell on the ground, exuding a holy light like the bright moon.
This is the holy sword held by the "unfortunate hero" who planned to slay the dragon, but was slain by the dragon in turn.
The holy sword exuded holy brilliance and energy. As an undead, Hans felt unbearable. He was not supposed to feel pain. He screamed, covered his eyes with his arms, and cried like a child.
William ran over quickly and grabbed the hilt of the holy sword.
The radiance of the holy sword that was originally radiating disappeared instantly. Hans took several steps back. After the holy light disappeared, he was no longer afraid and hurt. At this time, there was a strange expression on his face and eyes, "William, why can you get the permission of the Holy Sword, why can you get the Holy Sword, but I feel pain even if I touch it."
Hans looked at his former friend with hatred in his eyes, and said in the same commanding tone as before, "Hand over the holy sword, I will become a brave man, give me the sword, you How can I have the talent to become a brave man? I am the son of a knight, and your father is just a blacksmith."
William felt the energy transmitted by the holy sword in his hand, and discovered Hans' murderous intention towards him. He said with sadness in his eyes, "Aren't we friends?"
"This is my friend." Hans found a knight's spear from the ground and said to William, "Give me the holy sword. I will not forget you after I become famous, my friend."
William was silent, looking at Hans' rotten half of his face, and what he wanted to say was not uttered in the end.
It's not that I have the qualifications to be a hero, but that you, who are no longer human, are not qualified to touch the Holy Sword.
