How To Choose Your Knight Novels & Stories

Knight passed the box to the person sitting nearest to him. “It would go round, and you'd all pick one at each round so it would be enough and no one would grumble about being cheated.” Knight said. The next person picked one and then passed it, when it got to my turn, I looked closely at the precious jewelries in the box, it was all beautiful and pleasant to the eyes. I picked the less shiny one which looked rather odd, they were surprised at my choice knowing well that I only chose the best, but the reason I did so was because it looked complicated, and its design is unique.

They spoke their welcomes in low tones so that the public would not be able to hear what they were saying. As the Chieftain spoke to the warriors alongside him, the stranger turned to face us and crossed his hands in front of him. Amid the crowd, he searched until his gaze fell on mine. The most beautiful set of eyes I had ever seen looked back at me. It was the first time I'd ever seen a shade of green in someone's irises, and I was intrigued. A strong desire to touch his face pulled me from my bench.

Meanwhile, upon hearing this, Lucjan smiled scornfully. “I’m a man of my word. I’ll hand over Excalibur to whoever emerges victorious. However, there’s a prerequisite for this. You will have to pull out Excalibur. The one who succeeds will be the chosen one, the new Captain of the Knights.” Koehler’s voice boomed. James was not interested in Excalibur. If not for Callan telling him that the wielder of Excalibur would gain control of the Knights of the West, he would not even have bothered looking at it.

“When I heard that he was my sister’s chosen, I wasn’t satisfied. I care about my sister so much that I want her to be with a worthy lord. So I’m not asking for too much. A bike duel to judge how worthy he is of her is all I ask for. If he wins, he will have her. If I do, she will be given the benefit of choice to be with another lord.” I felt Zayne step forward from beside me. “What better way to prove my worth as her chosen than through the road, Lord Dante?” he said, tilting his head slightly, lips curling in that smug half-smile. “The way our fathers built their brotherhood. Strength, skill, and fearlessness.” I smiled—not out of amusement, but with the steel edge that always followed me

They would continue south to Ashfen with nothing slowing them down and no complications that could not be resolved with careful anonymity. Leaving was the sensible option. He looked at Aldric and considered what resources actually were. A trained knight who survived would be someone with combat experience, local knowledge, connections to the networks that operated beneath Imperial oversight, and the specific kind of loyalty that came from being saved when saving you was inconvenient. A trained knight who died here would be one more body in a line of bodies that had already been counted. This was not sentiment. This was resource acquisition with a pulse. "Help me get him on the horse," Kael s

I shook my head but did not get angry, I pointed at the male wolf who had spoken first, "Step forward." He hesitated, "Are you scared of a human?" I taunted. He growled and came to stand in front of me. Good. I came out of the podium and picked a dagger, "Pick a dagger of your choice," I told him, twirling my stiletto dagger in between my fingers. He glared at me but went ahead to pick a dagger. He chose the knight dagger, I smiled at his choice. The knight dagger was a good weapon if you knew how to handle it.

Not even able to use a single complex magic before. “Being a medical Knight is a dangerous position in the Knights Association. Since you are the one that supports a whole squad, enemy Knights will be aiming for you first. Take out the healer of the team, and the rest of the team is handicapped. That is why you need to keep yourself put of the battlefield in a team first.”

Eldrick put forth his question in an ambiguous manner, waiting to see would the man he was here to catch get the hint before he fell for the trap. “The ministers attend the sessions in the courtroom while the knights battle it out on the battleground.” Kolan answered only to receive a shake of the head from the Lord. “Let me rephrase my question. What ornament differentiates a minister and a knight?” This time everybody understood what the man was asking. “A minister wears a penannular brooch while a knight doesn’t.” Once against Kolan was the one to speak.

"Yes, there will be rules. No magic will be allowed, and there will be no killing or maiming. The goal is to prove your strength and skill, not to harm your opponents." The knights nodded, taking in the information. Caleb stood up from his seat. "I expect each of you to represent your kingdom with honor and pride. Train hard, prepare well, and may the best kingdom win." The knights stood up as well, bowing their heads in respect. As they left the room, they could feel the excitement and anticipation building within them. The prospect of the tournament was both thrilling and nerve-wracking, but they were determined to make their kingdom proud.
