Eternally Regressing Knight Chapter 563

563

Make Rem the vice-captain?

“We demand that you immediately withdraw this wrong greeting.”

Saxony will say this.

“Since God does not permit it, I will carry out His will myself.”

Audyn will come out with both fists clenched.

And Ragnar.

‘Wouldn’t he just start cutting without saying a word?’

Therefore, the vice-captain’s words were just nonsense, so I completely ignored them.

After a few more words, Rem revealed what was on her mind. It seemed like she had nothing to hide.

“If the Western Magic is erased, everyone will live well. Then the general will be able to live as he pleases. When I get old, I’ll just beat my wife’s butt and get hit a few times while watching my children’s tricks.”

Rem looked upon her later years calmly, without answering.

“You don’t plan on dying or dying in the middle of the process?”

Encred asked curiously. Judging from his actions when fighting, he doesn’t seem like the type of person who would look forward to tomorrow.

The outward appearance is also like that.

But his feelings were different. Rem dreamed of the future. He dreamed of closing the Demonic Realm and spending time with his wife and children.

Encrid suddenly had such a thought.

Although he doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of distress, Rem also wants to see his wife and the unborn child.

Is there anything you can do for that?

There must be. Encred looked at Rem as he thought of something. Rem answered the question that Encred asked, which was almost a joke.

“Die? Who? Me? You’re saying the obvious. I won’t die.”

Looking at Rem’s smile, the corners of her lips turning up, it really seemed like that would be the case.

He will not die. He is full of confidence, embodied in Will, and his momentum is evident.

If you look closely, you can see that what Rem is dealing with is not Will but sorcery, but to Encred, it looks similar.

Remdo said that it is similar in terms of strengthening the body, will, and magic.

“Okay, um, let’s go.”

“Go. Why are you talking nonsense?”

When Encrid heard that Rem was heading to the forge with her training tools, he warned her not to tease Eitri too much.

“Do I look like some kind of great person who bullies people?”

If I didn’t nod here, Encrid would have to find my conscience in my gut and throw it out.

And if a human being takes out his internal organs, he will surely die.

He still wanted to live and couldn’t because he had a lot to do.

“uh.”

So I nodded firmly.

“Is it unpleasant?”

The next person Encred went to after seeing Rem speaking gruffly was Ragna.

It was a similar question to the one I asked Rem.

What do you want?

The Knights Templar asked if this was the right place for you.

Ragnar is a genius. He has more talent than anyone Encred has ever seen.

His talent has blossomed, and now Ragnar has found his own path.

Ragna, who couldn’t decide which way to go even though he saw the road stretching out before his eyes, found the path his sword should take.

You could tell just from their sparring. There was no doubt or hesitation in his sword.

That’s what Ragnar said.

“I want to go all the way with the sword. To do that, I need a suitable opponent, but it’s a hassle to go looking for one. But if I stay by the captain’s side, I think he’ll come to me on his own.”

Is this real? It will be.

Ragnar was not the type to lie or say things he didn’t mean.

“Is that why you stay in the Knights?”

Because it’s annoying.

This wasn’t all that shocking. Ragnar was just like that.

After that, it was similar to Rem. I said I would become the vice-captain.

Even though Encred is the center of the Knights, he said that he needed someone to step forward and lead the way, and he spoke in an impassioned manner that was not appropriate.

When I told him that there was no such thing as a vice-captain, he continued to say this with enthusiasm, without showing any sign of annoyance.

“If there is no vice-captain, shouldn’t I be the first sword?”

Ragnar spoke in a serious tone, frowning even between his eyebrows.

The first sword was an absurd title that was created called the Majunggeom.

I considered my position very seriously, even though I was told that I didn’t have to be a knight.

“There is no such thing.”

“Why isn’t it there?”

“It doesn’t exist, so it doesn’t exist.”

“Is that so?”

It was easy to give up. It was absurd that someone who was too lazy to do it properly would show enthusiasm for something like this.

A madman isn’t a madman for nothing.

I went to Saxony and asked.

“That’s fun. That’s all.”

That was the end of it. There must have been more hidden inside, but he wasn’t the type to say it out loud.

After speaking, he just looks at himself with strange eyes.

The look in his eyes seemed to be asking, “Why are you asking that?”

“Each of them has their own desires, but I can’t keep them in the Knights Templar.”

Encrid had nothing to hide, so he spoke honestly.

“indeed.”

Saxony smiled faintly.

Encred simply shrugged.

If he had been born with the ability to read other people’s minds, he would have tilted his head at Saxon’s mind right now.

Saxon was about to say that if even one person quits after that, he would give up his entire Carmen collection, but he stopped himself.

There are some facts that are so obvious when you look at them from a distance.

This order revolves around one person, but each person expresses their own will and intention.

The vessel of one central person is so large and wide that it contains everyone’s will and intention, so no one wants to leave the Knights Templar.

That was Saxony’s conclusion.

Anyway, instead of telling her what was on his mind, Saxon made something like a request to Encred in a subtle tone.

“I don’t need a specific position, but I will take the position of vice-captain if you wish.”

“No, there is no such thing.”

Did the three of them make it? I don’t know why they say similar things.

He looked at Saxon, saying once again that he had no other position than captain, and Saxon said, ‘Yes, I see.’

It didn’t seem like something he said because he really wanted to.

Or maybe he expected me to say that there was no such thing as a vice-captain.

Since Audin and Sinar decided to go together, we decided to ask them as we went, and after that we met with Lawford, Pel, Luagarne, and Teresa.

There were times when people from the Empire would come and ask to meet him, but Encred was very busy meeting them and talking to them outside of training hours, and occasionally meeting Eitri.

Besides, I had to do the bare minimum that Christ said I should do.

It is the minimum for a person to be in charge of a large estate.

Some things required his permission.

In addition to this work, Graham would occasionally come to me for advice, supervise the training of soldiers who were determined to improve themselves, and even take part in the training of those who were designated as escorts, so I was really busy.

So, I decided to just bashfully ignore people who said they came from an empire or a great country.

In fact, the purpose was obvious.

Just like the blind old man who left the letter the other day, saying that he was a cultist, he said that he would give you something if you came to the empire, and that he would give you something if you came to the south, that was all.

That’s why the next person I met while I was busy was Teresa.

“It’s nice here.”

Should I ask further why?

Teresa spoke without being asked.

“Singing is fun. Fighting is fun. I came here to find out that there is such fun in the world. I learned the teachings of the Lord Father anew.”

And all of that was possible because of you.

Teresa swallowed the last word. You knew what I was saying without me having to say it.

Encred nodded.

Judging by the situation, this was the time to nod and pat her on the shoulder to show that I understood.

But how could Teresa know what was in her mind, since she was not a believer herself?

That’s just how it is. It really did look like fun.

Honestly, Encred seemed like one of the happiest people I had around at the moment.

Hanging out with Audin, praying, singing, and walking around the city.

It was obvious that Teresa was enjoying all that time.

“I am a shepherd of the wilderness. That will never change until I die. But for now, I want to hone my talents here.”

Since when has Pell become so polite?

Moreover, when you listen to what he says, it sounds like he is asking you to stay.

Are the changes in attitude from before turning out to be bad?

That didn’t seem to be the case.

Rather, he seemed to be working harder and doing his best in everything than before.

It was similar to competing with Lawford and hanging out together.

“Oh, okay.”

So it would be right to nod your head in agreement.

Also, I won’t stop him from going back to being a shepherd in the wilderness someday.

“It is an honor.”

Lawford nodded without asking.

“You are a member of the Knights of the Red Cloak?”

“Oh, you have already withdrawn.”

It didn’t seem like something one should say while smiling brightly, but Lawford smiled brightly.

To him, everyone, including Encred and Ragnar, were people he respected endlessly.

It’s with these people. For Lawford, his time in the Border Guard was the most enriching of his entire life.

So it’s only natural.

“If you kick me out, I’ll stay as a squire, but if that doesn’t work, I’ll stay as a soldier.”

Lawford said and Encred answered.

“Stay in the Knights Templar. As a knight.”

I thought, “Since he has the talent to become a Squire of the Knights of the Red Cloak, Roford is no ordinary man, so why are they saying such things?”

Next is Luagarne.

“Even if you have one frock, the picture would be nice, right? How much more so if it’s a beautiful frock?”

Encrid nodded, unable to tell the beauty of the prok.

Didn’t I say with my own mouth the other day that I had become prettier?

“Yes, a beautiful frock knight. Not bad.”

Does Prock have a concept of a knight? It’s not that there isn’t one, but it’s really not common. He said he’d never seen one in his life, but did he say there were any records of it?

Encred asked people for water, received it from everyone he could, and then took a drastic personnel action.

“You are a knight too.”

This is said to a horse, not a person.

“Heeeeeel!”

The raccoon raised his front paws high and jumped, shouting.

What the heck is this kid?

Encrid said it just in case, but was embarrassed again.

It was something I said when a person with squint eyes kept glaring at me.

It seems like you were waiting to be told to join the Knights.

After drinking the sacred spring water, he became more human than before.

When you see them running around the fields all day and occasionally kicking or biting monsters to death, they are not only smart but also play with their opponents. When you see that, you get the feeling that they are smarter than people.

“Oh, yeah, pay for the spring water.”

At those words, the two eyes of the eagle shone with different lights. The foal let out a will to show his intention.

I think so.

It seemed to say that you wouldn’t be disappointed.

‘I was just saying.’

I couldn’t understand why everyone was so excited.

“You may call me Magic Knight Esther.”

After that, when Esther came to visit, Encred nodded here too.

Even though it was impossible to understand what was said, I asked Esther because I thought it was worth asking.

“Why do you remain in the Knights Templar?”

Esther was a witch and it was obvious she had no reason to stay here.

Because her priority is not saving people, and even less is it being loyal to her country.

In reality, there are probably not many people who remain here because they are loyal to the country.

“A wizard is a seeker. Right now, I am content to explore you and the world. That is why I have no intention of leaving. If you are worried that I will leave easily, you may make a covenant or a contract.”

I didn’t even realize that asking why I was staying was a question.

Esther spoke in one breath without even taking a breath.

I also showed my sincerity through things like covenants and contracts.

“What about a contract? I don’t need one.”

You can’t force someone to stay by your side. Encred knew that very well. How could someone who was left behind under external pressure be able to do his best in his position?

There would be no need to keep a reluctant person by your side, so the contract was meaningless.

“Okay, then I’ll stay. You’re a magic knight.”

As she spoke, Esther chuckled, which was a rare sight, separate from Shinar’s smile.

Esther doesn’t smile much, but I didn’t know she could smile so cutely.

It sounded really awkward, the way he shrugged his shoulders and let out a chuckle.

The way he smiled and the sound of his laughter were all the same.

It somehow reminded me of a squirrel. Should I try transforming into a squirrel next time?

I didn’t say anything unnecessary. I didn’t want to see you change from smiling like that to a serious expression.

“Well, anyway, I’m going.”

Esther muttered something about a magic knight with a black flower and stormed off.

That’s how the affiliation with the knighthood was decided.

The captain is himself.

Under him, Rem, Ragnar, Saxon, and Audin were the main force, Dunbakel would return and if she wanted to stay, she would do so, Teresa was paired with Audin, and Lawford wanted to train under Ragnar.

Saxon said he was more comfortable alone, and Luagarne and Fel were part of Encred’s bodyguard and knights.

That was all.

It doesn’t require anything grandiose.

Encred, who had been collecting his thoughts while appreciating the autumn sky, wind, clouds, and sunlight, looked at the remaining two.

There were two people left to ask, and they were walking beside me now.

The fairy who walked calmly and silently right next to me was the first.

“Are you going to join the Knights Templar?”

Shinar looked at Encred. Green eyes stared straight at him. It was hard to tell what they were thinking or feeling. Encred heard Shinar talking to Krang.

I knew it because I heard it then. Unlike others, she must have had an ultimate goal.
