Hearing Aurelion's introduction, everyone was filled with emotion.

Are there more experts?

It seems that the empire is taking this princess's diplomatic mission very seriously, protecting her to the extreme from the inside out.

Not only was this Senator Clavner by his side, but he also personally led a cavalry unit.

The Kingdom of Kant has no knights.

As for the reason, everyone here knows it very well.

The kingdom reveres military might and pursues endless progress.

For them, honor, morality, and justice are nothing but empty concepts.

What they pursue is to make themselves stronger and their bodies more resilient.

To become a knight, one must have faith in one's own justice and virtue.

The kingdom's warriors, of course, had no time to devote themselves to such meaningless beliefs.

The key is to have a big and strong fist.

Therefore, the kingdom will never develop knights.

But despite their words, they fully acknowledged the power of the Imperial Knights.

To become nobles and lords in this kingdom, these guys must be quite muscular.

So when they saw Gwen and heard the introduction of this imperial princess, they couldn't help but feel an urge to take action.

When you encounter someone strong, you should dare to challenge them.

That's what they said, but they didn't act that way when they saw Viktor.

On one hand, Victor is a mage, and one of the twelve members of the top international organization, the Mage Council.

Of course, they had to give them plenty of face.

And there is another very important aspect.

Those who become lords are not just all brawn and no brains.

They understand the difference between being able to win and being unable to win.

The Battle of Padarlumbu made the world aware of Victor's nuclear-powered combat capabilities.

So this is how mages can be played?

These kingdom warriors wouldn't dare say they were more resilient or capable of fighting than those terrifying monsters.

Moreover, a simple comparison is all it takes.

The kingdom has so many warriors.

But the most powerful five-star duke is a mage.

Therefore, the warriors of the kingdom generally have a strange respect for mages.

As for Gwen, this knight from the Empire, she's a different story.

As they sensed Gwen's powerful, icy aura, these noble lords felt a surge of excitement.

challenge.

Of course, most of the people present calmed down.

Their strength has declined slightly compared to when they were younger.

His muscles were not as strong as they used to be, and his bones had become loose and fragile compared to his youth.

Even the hidden ailments that were left on his body would flare up from time to time.

It is well known that the older a warrior gets, the more his strength declines.

Even if they do beat Gwen, it can only be said that they have more experience and are slightly better.

If we lose, it will be incredibly embarrassing.

But Hilda was different.

This young Tier 3 female warrior had been staring at Gwen ever since she saw her appear.

Because Gwen is about the same age as her, and even the same gender.

Hilda couldn't help but compare herself to Gwen.

After hearing Aurelion's introduction, she almost lost her mind and wanted to test her skills against this great knight.

But at that moment, the empire's foreign ministers noticed the current atmosphere and blurted out...

"Oh, by the way, our Empire's Grand Knight Gwen has a connection with Count Victor."

"Indeed, the two are engaged."

"Even Grand Knight Gwen's equipment was prepared by Count Victor himself."

"Hahaha, they're a match made in heaven!"

After those few words, the atmosphere suddenly froze, and silence seemed to envelop the surroundings.

Only a gentle breeze blew by, stirring up a wisp of dust.

Even Hilda suppressed her urge to compete.

Then, the foreign ministers' laughter abruptly stopped.

For some reason, it seems the princess glanced at them just now.

Those icy eyes sent chills down their spines.

When they came to their senses, what had just happened seemed like an illusion.

Aurelion smiled and said:

"Indeed, I forgot to introduce myself just now."

"My Gwen teacher, who is also Viktor's fiancée."

Seeing this, Auguste, in keeping with the atmosphere, chuckled softly.

"I see."

"No wonder Grand Knight Gwen and Mr. Victor have such similar temperaments."

Similar temperament? Does it mean they both have expressionless faces?

Upon hearing August's words, the others couldn't help but secretly scrutinize Gwen and Victor's faces.

At this moment, Archduke Barlow, at the very front of the procession, slammed his cane heavily on the ground.

Bang!

The crisp sound echoed endlessly in the arena, stirring up a wave of excitement in the hearts of the nobles.

Everyone looked toward the source of the sound.

Before Grand Duke Barlow, a deep, dark green aura appeared.

A hazy mist began to spread, gradually enveloping Grand Duke Barlow.

A huge, dark green spot of light began to sway and flicker.

The light spots began to expand continuously, their eerie green edges extending outwards, and the pitch-black holes grew enormous.

The deep hole began to tremble, as if something was about to emerge from the tunnel.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Grand Duke Balo turned around and spoke to August.
