Chapter 366: 365: In order to save the world, Knight Kishiwi decides to go out and become an idol~
Ms. Bikki’s entire body was confused when she returned to the Blood Wyvern Cloister, looking at the nearby Knight Raven with a worried face.
She hadn’t overheard the entire conversation between Consul Miriam and Miss Bikki, and couldn’t tell what kind of mesmerizing soup the red-haired girl, who was even younger than Miss Bikki but obviously more cunning, had poured into her own young lady, making the always optimistic young lady’s journey back almost as if she were stepping on a cloud.
As Kudel’s granddaughter, Becky was also considered to be related to the Blood Vulture Clan, and thus had a temporary room of her own in the Blood Vulture Cloister.
It was right next to Kudel’s room.
However, this “grandfather” of hers was very busy every day, just like Murphy, patrolling the territory was only one of the tasks, but he also had to find time to train the warriors under his command.
Strict is really strict, but the effect is also very good, so that Cat as the leader of the members of the soldiers strike group in the combat skills in leaps and bounds to improve.
All of this was watched by Bikki, plus the past few days together had allowed her to confirm that despite her own grandfather becoming a vampire, he was still the legendary Nantes Ranger on the inside, and the fact that he was still able to gain such a huge reputation among the locals even after becoming an evil spirit said it all in and of itself.
“Leaven, I think.”
Bikki didn’t go back into her room.
Instead, she stayed outside Kudel’s room and waited for her grandfather to return, and after a long period of contemplation, she whispered to her hairdresser and best friend beside her:
“I’m thinking, should we write a letter to our family in Grandpa’s name, and let’s not go back to Nantes for now, and stay in Transylvania to participate in this war of the Black Plague.
This martial art of mine that I’ve practiced since I was a child is obviously more effective by staying here.”
“Miss, you’re having a seizure again.”
Raven Knight said with a stern face:
“Not to mention whether or not his lordship would agree to you being a girl staying alone in the dangerous Transylvania, you can now be the daughter-in-law of the Carpe family that has been declared to the outside world, do you think that Earl Lyon, who especially values the family’s face, would allow you to make such a decision?
The fact that you can represent the Carpe family to escort the merchant caravan to Transylvania is already in the name of Colonel Fraser, if you continue to go out of your way, I think you might have to face some ‘family conflicts’ in advance.”
“Fraser’s side is pretty well taken care of.”
Becky, however, had her own set of thoughts, and in a rare move of her brain this would be said in a very organized and certain tone:
“Fraser has been appointed by Marshal Loren as the commander of the Pioneer Legion’s military observer mission in Transylvania, and he will soon lead the support legion to come to Transylvania for a long period of time until the end of the war.
Earl Lyon must be worried about his own son, so isn’t it only natural for me, as Fraser’s fiancée, to accompany him here and protect him in the meantime?”
“Uh, I think you’re coaxing Earl Lyon as a fool.”
Raven Knight bristled:
“It’s true that you’re a skilled Black Iron Knight in martial arts, but you don’t think that the Capet family, which has a large family, still needs a knight like you, who’s never been to battle, to protect their most honorable heir, do you?
I’ve heard that the silver guards hired or even raised from childhood in Skanderpay City are close to being able to form a commando unit, so that’s not a very good reason.”
“But you’re ignoring the current situation!”
Miss Becky clapped her hands together and said with a grin:
“The Firefox Mercenary Regiment formed by their family is already one of the Carpe Family’s most combat-ready mercenaries in East Prussia, but didn’t they defect as well?
Do you think that in this situation, Count Lyon would still trust those so-called ‘family’s own guards’?
I admit that I lack experience in actual combat.
But at least I’m trustworthy!
In the old Count’s opinion, not only can I protect his precious son on weekdays, but I may also be able to add to their family’s flavor during the war.
It’s a two-for-one deal.”
“My goodness, is this really something a noble lady can say directly? You are really frank and straightforward in this regard.”
Livin covered her eyes helplessly as she said:
“Well, you have raised a rather constructive topic from an aspect I never thought of, and perhaps the old Count will give in before such an irrefutable subject.
The question remains, however, why you should remain in Transylvania?
Is there really something here that appeals to you so much? To be honest, I now suspect that Consul Miriam has put a spell on you, distorting your already small intellect.
They say Transylvania is an evil place!
I’m guessing we’ve probably encountered one of them, do you need me to give you a full body check?”
Knight Raven raised her left hand, a distinctive greenish-blue mist wrapping around it as she said, half in jest and half in earnest:
“I feel I need to check your mind, don’t worry, my god-given abilities will ensure the process goes smoothly.
In the area of purifying evil, the power of the Dragon Spirit of the Astral Plane will not be weaker than the Avalon of Nature, and His power is softer and more forgiving.”
“You just want to do bad things!”
Bikki said with a stern face:
“You’ve been like this since you were a kid, you like to get mushy with me, you even take baths together, but then I realized that you’re like this with all the pretty girls
Leaven, you have a problem!”
“I don’t!”
Raven Knight said rolling her eyes:
“I just appreciate the beauty of the same sex more than others, don’t worry lah, I see you as a sister, our kinship is enough for me to maintain decency in front of you.”
“Ch.”
Bikki clasped her arms in disbelief, and just as the two young girls were chatting, heavy footsteps sounded around the corner in front of them, causing them to look back to see His Excellency Kudel returning from his rounds.
Today, he was not wearing the Blood Vulture Battle Armor, but just the Griffin Heavy Sword on his back was enough to raise his weight to a level unimaginable to ordinary people.
This heavy sword was one of the “famous blades” that Murphy had found in the Blood Wyvern’s treasure trove, and it also came from Salokdar’s “hunting collection” during the Black Plague War, and similar to the Cold Night that had already landed in the hands of Sister Pomegranate, the Griffin’s greatsword’s appearance was full of “exotic flavor”. “It is similar to the Cold Night that has fallen into the hands of Garnet, but the appearance of Griffin’s Greatsword is full of exotic flavor.
This is the “Moonlight Blade” of the Songhai Empire.
It is said to have once belonged to a Sangha Sword Saint, who bombarded the clan of the Bone King with the magnificent Sun Ship during the Fourth Black Plague and died on the battlefield rescuing friendly troops, thus this greatsword embellished with skulls and roses, and shaped into an elegant arc of the moon is a hero’s legacy as well.
The Pharaoh’s craftsmen of the Songhai Empire added a unique material called “Hades Silver Sand” to the sword, causing its density to be far greater than that of ordinary steel.
In the same volume, Griffin’s weight was more than seven times that of Kudel’s previous scarlet heavy sword “Ranger”, which made it difficult for the Bao Min Guan, who was currently the runner-up of the Blood Wyvern Clan in terms of combat power, to wield it for long periods of time.
However, the extreme weight brought about extreme lethality!
When Kudel wielded it on the battlefield, there was nothing that could stop the brave Baofeng officer.
Upon seeing his little granddaughter standing at the door of his house, Kudel’s originally stern and silent expression added a hint of helplessness out.
His encounter with Biki had been an accident, and in the past few days he had been quite satisfied with this granddaughter in every aspect, which was simply the perfect representative of the already scarce number of female knights.
Except for her brain.
Biki wasn’t stupid at all.
She had inherited Kudel’s bravery along with the intelligence of the only love of the Bao Min Guan, however, having intelligence and being able to use it well were two different concepts.
Perhaps because she grew up as a tomboy, obsessed with power and crazy about her combat skills, her granddaughter has grown a bit “crooked”.
Kudel had tested that his granddaughter’s force could be ranked in the upper echelon of the Black Iron rank, but it seemed that she had sacrificed her intelligence in exchange for all of this.
Her first reaction is always to draw her sword without thinking at all, but fortunately, it is already standard for such a cute blonde idiot to have an “external brain” beside her.
Raven Knight’s brain is a good one, and could be a great help to Becky.
However, Kudel always thought that there was something strange about his granddaughter’s best friend. He couldn’t tell exactly what it was, but every time he saw Raven Rider, Kudel was reminded of Grand Duchess Tris’s mysterious head of her personal guard, “Crazy Woman” Bonnie.
Well, maybe it’s because both of them are good at stealthy actions?
The Bailiff shook that thought out of his head and spoke to his granddaughter with the warmest indifference a vampire could muster:
“You’re leaving Transylvania in the morning, I have a gift for you, come in with me.”
With that said, Kudel pushed his way into the room.
Bikki, who had planned to seek her grandfather’s help, also shut up immediately, and she planned to tell him after she got the parting gift from him first.
Hey, your favorite little peach isn’t going anywhere!
Surprise, right?
Her little thought was immediately detected by the Raven Knight beside her, causing the Knight Hime with half oriental bloodline to cover her eyes in pain. It always felt as if her own young lady had awakened something extraordinary in the past few days in Transylvania, and her brand new factory brain that had been dusted off for years had finally begun to function.
It was something to be congratulated, but it was like it had gone over in a strange direction.
“Wow! What beautiful armor.”
In Kudel’s room, which was so simple that there was only a bed and closet, the vampire “Grandpa” took out a wooden box from the cabinet.
After opening it, a lady’s vampire style heavy armor was placed inside.
From the form, this should be modified from the family guards heavy armor, but on top of the original dark blood-colored armor there was a shimmering and mysterious runes, apparently Kudel asked alchemy master Tris to do the enchantment for the armor, which made this set of good quality armor in the value of the level up again.
Kudel looked at his delighted little granddaughter, the corner of his mouth revealed a faintly invisible smile.
The Biki in front of him would always remind him of the scene when he gave a set of armor to his young son before he left his family for the Black Plague Battlefield.
At that time, his own son also cheered just like Biki.
He himself had thought that his son would become an excellent knight, but who would have thought that he would actually become a shrewd merchant.
But one’s own way of being a knight was eventually inherited by his granddaughter, one could only say that fate had taken a different course than what Kudel had imagined but in the end it had not failed him.
“You can use it as a collector’s item and wear it to fight when necessary, but with the culture of the Anjou region, it would be best if you don’t let anyone know that you have such a set of armor from a vampire.
It would put a damper on your reputation.”
Kudel cautioned:
“I would have looked for another weapon for you, but your current saber was recovered from my travels to Glynny’s Island back in the day, and is said to be from the collection of the ‘Oak King’, a true masterpiece.
It’s hard to find a better defense than it in Transylvania, unless Murphy is willing to give you a famous blade, and with my face, Murphy will definitely be willing to give it, it’s just that it’s obviously too early for you to use a famous blade with your current strength.
I won’t send you tomorrow.
You can follow the Valander Knights who are about to train new recruits again.
That is a rather impressive winged cavalry commander, and from him you can learn more about how to use your strength.”
“Uh-huh uh-huh.”
With fondness, Bikki placed her grandfather’s gift of gauntlets into her delicate and tough psionic bag, then she snapped and stood up straight, addressing Kudel:
“But Grandpa, I’ve decided not to go!
I’m going to stay in Transylvania!
I’m going to participate in the Black Plague War and fight with you to protect the safety and justice of this land and the entire continent!
I’ve been familiarizing myself with your stories since I was a child, and I want to complete my legend as well, and the war in Transylvania will be a very perfect stage for that!
And I am the perfect knight about to take the stage .
Ah!”
Before she could finish her words, a grim-faced Kudel grabbed her by the ear, and the bailiff chided:
“What kind of joke are you making? And what do you take war for! Your most admired Nantes Ranger also died on the battlefield of the Black Plague a hundred and ten years ago, and that is never something that can be left to your fond imagination.
The men of Transylvania haven’t died out yet, it’s not your turn to step onto the battlefield with your unrealistic imagination, so get back to Nantes City!
Until the war is over, you are not allowed to come back!”
“But this isn’t a request!”
Bikki screamed covering her ears:
“I’m just informing you of my decision, whether you agree or not, I’m going to participate in my own way in a war that has everything to do with everyone.
Consul Miriam has granted me the status of ‘Knight of the Transylvanian Assault’, and I have all the makings of a participant in the Black Plague!
You can’t stop me from starting my legendary story, just as that poor boy from the countryside of Nantes back then wasn’t defeated by all sorts of difficulties either.
I’m just learning from greatness, so what’s wrong with that?”
“Can you and I be the same?”
Kudel was outraged.
It was rare for him to lose control of his emotions like this, but as he had said before when he had faced subspace head on he had lost a part of himself forever.
Thus at this moment the scarlet light in those eyes jumped more and more violently.
He couldn’t even control his breath somewhat.
This made Raven Knight immediately perceive a threat, and she grabbed Biki’s wrist to tell her to stop stimulating the Civil Protection Officer.
“Ahem, can I say something?”
Just when Kudel felt that a certain wave of emotions in his brain was about to go out of control, Murphy’s voice suddenly sounded outside the door, seemingly carrying some kind of strange power that made Kudel’s tensed nerves relax all of a sudden.
He turned his head to look at the door, and Murphy, who was full of smiles, was standing there, his hands behind his back, and at the fingertips of his left hand there was a cloud of purifying shimmering light that was dissipating.
He smiled and said:
“I realize that I, an outsider, shouldn’t be involved in this ‘family talk’, but I also feel that as the Governor of Transylvania, I feel compelled to offer a small amount of advice and assistance to a young man eager to get involved in the Black Plague War.
Ms. Becky, your grandfather did not want you to participate in the war to protect you, he lost something very important during the Fourth Black Calamity.
He almost lost himself as well.
He just didn’t want you to make the same mistake, but I also know that for a lady as full of courage and strength as you are, that concern can also be misinterpreted from time to time as a denial of your abilities.
So I have the best of both worlds here.”
Murphy paused as he said:
“The Transylvanian Fighter’s Championship is underway, and there’s still a bit of time before the winner is decided, and it’s a great mix of participants from Clan Bloodwyvern, Clan Blood Alliance, the Mountain Folk, the Northmen, and the Witch Hunters, as well as my Warriors.
If you can prove to your grandfather that you have the strength to defend yourself in such a fierce competition, then I don’t think he will be so vehemently opposed to your request to enter the war.
But be warned.
Getting second place in a tournament doesn’t prove your strength, therefore, there must be a title of champion”
“I will enter the tournament!”
Bikki exclaimed defiantly:
“I will prove that I have the strength to protect myself and others!”
“Please change your name, and if you can, seek out Missy Femis, she will modify another look for you to help you compete.
Just use the alias ‘Shivvy’.”
Murphy spoke up.
He then watched as Becky huffed and pulled Raven Rider around the corner of the cloister and disappeared, and in the time it took to turn back around, Kudel was already staring at him with an unkind look in his eyes.
“Don’t look at me like that, Civil Protection Officer.
You know that even if you kick her back, she’ll sneak back in again, you can’t stop a warrior maiden who wants to create a legend, and you know that the fact that she’s inherited your bravery means that even you won’t be able to bring her to her knees.
You are no match for yourself .”
