Chapter 153
Khal’s trial to become a formal knight began in earnest.
The soldiers, who had been suffering from obsession due to the damage caused by monsters, were trembling and felt paralyzed with fear at the prospect of exterminating the goblins.
Diana, who was fluttering around the castle walls with an armful of crafted Magic Scrolls, felt a sense of melancholy as she watched those soldiers.
‘…The morale is gone.’
It was a fact that was all too obvious.
These were days when they never knew when they might lose a comrade they had grown up with like a brother.
While such incidents had decreased exponentially since Khal’s arrival, the talk of exterminating the goblins of Altair was creating a new wave of anxiety.
Step, step.
Amidst that quiet silence, an unusually light-hearted stride caught everyone’s attention.
“Ho ho ho ho, you all look like such dashing young men.”
The one walking at the very front was none other than Licht.
And following behind Licht were Martin, Goetz, and Hazel, all clad in suits of armor.
Unlike the first impression they had given, they now possessed a much more refined and dignified appearance.
“Old man, these clothes don’t suit me at all,” Goetz said, scratching the back of his head as if the gear was cumbersome.
Licht gave a bitter smile and replied, “Realize your position. You must never show an unkempt appearance in front of your subordinates just because it’s comfortable. Furthermore, that disgrace doesn’t fall on you, but directly onto Lord Kalliant.”
