Posts from Knights of Tezoth

I'm planning to go through everyone who isn't an Albus supporter.

Well, except for that jerk who'll be the first to stick a knife in your back.

The final participant of the tournament is the Knight of the Swift Arrow, my lord Candle Lanterna.

>Participants are forbidden from intentionally causing irreparable damage or appropriating the equipment of the defeated

How is that irreparable damage if you smash the gear.

Well, that's clear. Any chance of winning even the archery contest just flew out the window 😩

Meanwhile, Rezara Sanjore brings her dear bright head to the Knight of the Dragon's Heart. He looked as approachable as possible and not threatening in the least.

"Sir Richard, allow me to take on the commentary for the upcoming battles. We, sons and daughters of Swordgard, are skilled in military matters. And we have a way with words," Rezara smiled. "Believe me, I will handle this task perfectly well."

"Oh no, the Knight of the Dark Sky is pulling down the pants of the Knight of the Hegemony! They continue the fight without weapons! Sir Ambrose raises his mighty fist, but then the Knight of the Dawn Steel sneaks up behind them..."

My Lord Candle Lanterna, Knight of the Swift Arrow from the Archipelago of Furious Waves, servant of Lord Nilchi Imekoh, adherent of the spirit of Ceres.

I see. So he's that guy who watches the whole process from the sidelines, and when it's over, kills her lover. A battle cuckold.

True. Good thing I didn't pick Revnland.

Ban it 😱

- A curious idea, my lady Rezara! - Unfortunately, it was impossible to discern the emotions on the knight's face due to the full helmet on his head. - Nothing of the sort has ever been practiced in the past, but all the better to make today's celebration more unique than all the previous ones. I entrust this role to you, good luck!

I hope erudition also grants prestige, because in terms of the sheer number of letters, this contest is far more challenging than elegance.

The plan of Albus's knights, seeking any way to raise their lord's status, could not go unnoticed. As in politics, the appearance of one alliance naturally begets the emergence of others. And so the visit of Gloomy Sky did not surprise Catharsis at all, though she did find it amusing that the coalition was founded specifically by Deus's knights.

— Pleased to meet you, my lord Himmel, — the Tanarsian woman nodded politely in greeting, — I think this is a sound idea. Since one alliance has already formed, others are bound to follow. Those who choose to stand aside will find themselves alone and become easy prey for any of the formed groups. So you and Lord Vargas have rightly taken the initiative into your own hands, and I will gladly support you in this matter. For even united, it will not be easy for us to contend with the coordinated work of Albus's knights. And that they have fought side by side more than once, I have no doubt.

But the appearance of a new knight nearby, whose arrival she had managed to overlook, came as a surprise to Alaria. The one-eyed servant of Carnea seemed to materialize out of thin air. For some reason, she had the feeling that he was far from the first and not the last one-eyed fellow in her experience to do such a thing. And this one had clearly been following her for some time, since he had heard the conversation with the Golden Coin.

— I'm afraid, my lord, that a small misunderstanding has arisen, — she smiled without losing her composure, — the hypothetical book concerned my own scars. However, the idea of a collection of such stories among warriors in general also deserves to live. And if you have stories you would like to share with me, I would be delighted to hear them.

But it's Yashchur who's in charge, and he won't be breaking gear or sticking daggers into rear ends

- In that case, I would be exceedingly pleased to inflict new scars upon you, ones you could later write about in your book. How about we meet somewhere in private, away from prying eyes, after today's event concludes? And speaking of eyes, - the interlocutor lifts his eyepatch and reveals an empty socket, - this I received from the Mistress. Long, long ago, there was a maidservant in our castle, modest and full of energy, with beautiful, neat ears, quite to my liking. But the Mistress was not pleased that my eyes were involuntarily drawn to her appearance, so she tore out my eye and plunged the maidservant headfirst into boiling water. Since then, my remaining eye has not been distracted by anything unnecessary.

-- That's true, my lady Alaria, quite true. Glad we've come to an agreement.

The appearance of the giantess's hidden knight did not surprise Axel; he expected something like this from her. Under other circumstances, he would have simply taken his head off with a swing of his sword. For men like him should be neutralized in advance, without waiting for them to cause trouble — and trouble they would certainly cause. But unfortunately, the situation did not allow for that.

Without reacting in any way to the Violence knight's remark, Himmel gave Alaria a final nod and headed toward Milk Chocolate.

-- Greetings, my lady Chonchonlia. My lord Lester Vargas, knight of Her Majesty, and I have decided to unite with other knights for the upcoming brawl. Since Albus's knights are planning the same. Lady Stefania and Alaria have already agreed to join our temporary alliance. And what do you think about this?

Well, if you've already donated to him for that, then good.

And I was thinking of approaching Chonchonlia myself once I was free.
