Chapter 513: Chapter 513: Good Friend (End of this volume and one day leave explanation)
No introduction is needed for the rushing Captain Kaimon from behind.
However, some explanation is needed for Captain Shaia, who slapped Marlon’s face without giving him any face.
She is Shaia Cornwall, the Blood Knight Captain Lucius often mentioned verbally, the head of the Scarlet Knights, and also a high-ranking duchess.
The operation to the Scarlet Manor was also supported by Captain Shaia.
Her face and temperament are unmatched by ordinary people, and the bloody aura emanating from her body is completely different from that of the typical Blood Descendant.
It wouldn’t make anyone feel uncomfortable or unwell, no sense of thick coagulated blood, instead, when approaching this Captain, one would feel their blood circulation smoothing, rather comforting.
With her smooth skin like a young girl, beautiful and enchanting face, even the same sex might have certain thoughts about her.
From the current situation, it seems that Captain Marlon had an affair with this Duchess decades ago.
“Shaia, let’s discuss these matters when we get back…I just returned to the city, can you give me some face. And I have done it, now I’m the Hell King…”
Slap!
Before he could finish speaking.
Shaia gave him another slap, turned around to lead the Scarlet Knights away, making the atmosphere rather awkward.
With the departure of the Scarlet Knights.
A force from the heart of the Holy City’s underground area arrived and everyone gave way.
“All members of the Hell Knight Corps, welcome the return of Captain Marlon!!”
A bit different from the usual knight orders.
This is a special knight corps wearing hot armor, their faces adorned with long horned skull masks.
The leader is a man shrouded in a cloak of flames, his face covered by a pure gold demon mask, and he holds a living magic staff that resembles a Hellhound.
Hell Knights Corps – Deputy Captain, Hell Great Mage, Otto Droba.
“Otto, didn’t I tell you to take my place?”
“No one can replace your position… Congratulations, Captain, for becoming the Hell King. We will follow you forever.”
“We will follow forever!!”
The Hell Knights Corps’ aura is impressive and oppressive.
Seeing the knights under his command becoming more and more presentable under the training of the Deputy Captain, Marlon showed a satisfied smile.
“Everyone, I’ll go back first…After dealing with the various things when I return to the city, I’ll invite everyone to ‘hell’ for a drink.”
Before leaving, Marlon did not forget to look at Han Dong.
“Nicholas, you should graduate directly from the Knight Academy this year, right? You have to seriously consider the team you want to follow…We can talk about the specifics later, go back and rest.”
“Alright.”
It’s very obvious that Captain Marlon wants to recruit.
Han Dong has completed the Breaking the Breed, does need to start considering the basic issue of joining a knight corps… wait another ten months, and this year’s Knight Selection Conference will be held.
Han Dong is still not very sure about which knight corps he should belong to.
“Nicholas, come back with me to the Mysterious Department.”
The Great Plague Chief showed a satisfied smile, personally took Han Dong back to the Mysterious Department… of course, during the ride, they also talked about some issues concerning the knight’s selection.
The Library Force also took Dumps back to the academy.
This ‘Big Traitor Incident’ that happened at the South Gate of the Holy City and ‘Return of the Hell Captain’ will go down in history together, but in this historical record, one name is mentioned in particular.
That is the core person who promoted the incident, a practice knight who hasn’t graduated yet, Nicholas.
In front of many knight captains, council members and the big traitor-chairman, he laughed crazily at the demon hiding in the chairman’s skin without any pressure.
Afterwards.
The Supreme Council issued the “Search Order”.
This citywide search will include all thirteen knight orders, led by the captains personally responsible for the search of every corner in the Holy City, while making major changes to the sewer area.
Investigate all personnel related to Stephen Maknovsky, every detail must be clearly understood.
If any point is not clear, and the investigated person causes any harm to the Holy City in the future, the knight corps that interrogated this person will be held responsible, and severe collective punishment will be implemented.
During the search period, all activities outside the city and fate activities are prohibited.
The investigation period is one month.
Besides.
Han Dong and Dumps were also listed as key review subjects by the council.
Though the president of the association had been confirmed to have been disguised as a high-level demon.
However, in front of all the knights, Han Dong showed his talent tree as a human knight.
However, some of the evidence which was submitted to the central council by the president beforehand turned out to be true.
The council is conducting a secret investigation on this matter and has talked not only with the inspector Han Dong and the Dumps but also with Mr. Black White, the librarian.
Gathering information in secret.
Though there is insufficient evidence to prove Han Dong and Dumps are from outside the city, their files have been marked with special symbols and separated from the cabinets of other apprentice knights.
…
A few days later.
[Stargazing Room]
Han Dong and Dumps were summoned by Mr. Black White and assembled here.
Upon returning to the academy, Dumps slept in the Magic bath for three full days and nights, which finally rejuvenated his exhausted body. The use and control of an object far beyond his own level completely drained Dumps.
“As per agreement, Dumps, you have completed your task successfully… I’ll offer you a chance for an ‘unconditional divination’. You can use it whenever you want in the stargazing room.”
“Okay.”
“You guys should be clear about why I called you all here.
The council has listed you as specially monitored personnel. In your future activities, you must avoid using any abilities from life outside the city.”
“Understood.”
“Also, Stephen Maknovsky is dead, but the thing hidden within him escaped through consciousness transfer… Even if this shell is not the ‘Old King’, it’s certainly a high-level demon only subpar to the Old King.
Since you’ve thwarted his long laid-out plan, he will surely hold a grudge.
In the future, you must be careful when you’re outside the city, and use your relations with the ‘Old King’ to avoid dangers.”
“Okay!”
As Mr. Black White finished his caveats, his face was filled with a joyous smile.
He had finally won this hidden game… otherwise, it would be too late when the Big Expedition arrived.
“There seems to be quite a few people from the outer courtyard looking for you downstairs, hurry up… I still have a lot to take care of, including taking down over a hundred people associated with Stephen, and eradicating some thoroughly corrupted parts.”
“You’ve worked hard, sir.”
When Han Dong and Dumps were leaving the Dark Moon Tower.
A group of mates, who have been through life and death together, gathered in the front door area.
The strongest among them was, of course, Captain Lucius.
Cass, who had broken his talent tree – [Domination], also came with his little girlfriend Sophia and craftsman Koslin.
Additionally, Abe of Hundred Beasts came, accompanied by blacksmith Wendy.
Mia, who was in the same Mystical Department as Han Dong, did not need further introduction. She had arrived at the entrance of the Dark Moon Tower from early morning upon hearing that Han Dong was leaving the recuperation room today, and had waited for over ten hours… during Han Dong’s absence, she even made ‘large voodoo dolls (Han Dong)’ of different types and sizes, and slept with them every night.
Just as everyone was about to say something.
Han Dong immediately labeled Dumps as a ‘tool person’.
“Dumps, how about inviting everyone for a feast… You’re not short of money anyway, and we both need a good recharge.”
“Okay, but I’ll need your help later with my breaking the breed.”
“No problem.”
Looking at the way Han Dong and Dumps were exchanging glances, Mia puffed out her little face and whispered, “Scum.”
Just as everyone was on their way to the trading district in a big horse-drawn carriage.
Having completed such a big task,
Han Dong could not help but let out his [Laughing Madness] mood.
His manic laughter kept coming out from the carriage…
