The Strongest Knight's

Ch. 121 - The Darkness of the Past

The atmosphere went back to silence after previously melting when Rever and Luca disappeared into the portal, the wind that was blown away by the night dust sounded so sunyinya, all fell silent again as Sir Jean stared intently and pointed his golden spear towards Richard who was standing quite far away from him, Richard had been standing without a word since he had not even reacted at all when Rever entered the portal.

All the soldiers and knights were stunned, they were disinclined to see the stern and fierce look on the face of the great knight and their supreme leader, Sir Jean Stephenson. "Ggrrrrr.r., I will pay for all of your mistakes, you have let Madam Ingrid suffer and not even managed to kill the demons that messed with the Snifooler family.. But for this time, Mr. Grobogan's killer must not be let go." Sir Jean said the firmness of his heart while pointing the spear he was holding towards Richard.

Meanwhile, Eros feels that this is not needed. Eros held onto the collar of Kane's shirt who suddenly said things he shouldn't have said. "Mr Kane..." Said Eros snapping. "Why? Why did you say that after your life was saved by that man!" Snap Eros on Kane.

Kane did not look Eros in the eye, he turned his face with a dumb look and did not care. His mind is still struggling with high self-esteem, he does not want to suppress his pride just because he has been saved.. He was unwilling and unwilling to accept the truth about a criminal who killed nobles who had saved him.

"Heh.. Master Jean!" Snijder, who was standing in the middle, was a little confused to see Jean, and he walked quickly to approach Jean, who looked serious about attacking Richard. For Snijder, Richard was neither a criminal nor the right person to fight, but for him Richard is a great man who deserves to be made a partner because of the strength and success of Richard was able to make Rever cornered as he had seen before.

But baby, when Snijder steps closer to Jean.. The spear had slid rapidly with the wind empire, heading right towards the direction where Richard stood staggeringly without a word. "Oh!" Upon realizing this, Snijder was shocked by Jean's reckless actions.

The spear shot out quickly, just before it hit Richard. "Master!!" Woli came, he made Richard duck to avoid the spear attack. Richard who was silent survived, he survived because of the arrival of Woli. If Woli had not been on time then perhaps Richard would have been hit by the attack because just before the attack hit him there was no sign that Richard would have fended off or dodged. Richard just stood there without a word, even at this moment.

"Huh.. Sir, Mr Richard!!" Woli looked at Richard this time who was beside her. Woli was surprised to see Richard's condition was injured but Richard's eyes looked very sharp just that the sharpness of the eyes did not see anyone aka his gaze was empty.

On the other hand, Eros was quite surprised to see Woli again, even with the other knights. "The wolf man." Mumbled.

"Mr Jean... That werewolf is a fugitive that's troubling Lister city!" Kane with his pail mouth returned to give Jean information.

"Oh!!" Jean looked at Kane, then turned back towards the bowed Woli holding onto Richard's weak body. "Eros... Is that true?" Ask Sir Jean.

Eros was hesitant, confused what to say because he basically felt he owed Richard what happened tonight. "Erosssss.. Is that true?" Kane asked again, this time with firm tension.

"I.. Yes my lord." Eros spontaneously answered.

"Hem... Good though. That way I can kill two criminals at once." Sir Jean muttered that his hand was moving so that his spear would strike Woli and Richard again. Using the wind empire, Sir Jean could easily control his golden spear even if he did not hold it.

Just once a hand struck, the spear returned to lead to Woli and Richard. It was so fast that the spear almost pierced through the body of Woli who did not move because he still felt pain due to the wound he suffered.

Be lucky.. The spear was blown away by Snijder Stollen, who disagreed with Sir Jean's foolish actions.

The knights who saw were surprised, even with Sir Jean. "Snijders.... What do you mean!?" Said firmly.

"Sorry Mr. Jean.. But I really don't understand why you attacked this guy!" Snijder glanced at Richard who was still expressionless beside Woli.

"Sad... It's none of your business, Snijder. That person had already killed the nobles of this kingdom. He deserves to die, what else he is also a werewolf gang who are fugitives of that kingdom. So it's only natural that I'll kill them here." Firm Jean.

"Huh.. Killing nobles.." Snijder glanced back at Richard and was a little in disbelief at what Sir Jean had said.

While glancing, Sir Jean again moved his spear towards Richard but Snijder's defense did not slack off and managed to fend off the attack again and again. "Ehh.. Mr Snijder!" Eros is quite surprised at Snijder's decision to protect Richard and Woli.

On the other hand, when it keeps happening. Woli with all his strength tried to carry the wounded Richard and had been silent and motionless since then, but the injuries he had and made his movements were limited. "Dam.. Signore.. Mr. Richard." Although he continued to call out to Richard but Richard's gaze still continued to point forward, a sharp blank look.

"Oi... Are you sure of Snijder's decision. You can make the alliance fall apart if you protect a fugitive from Inggram kingdom." Jean approaches, this time the distance between herself and Snijder is closer than ever.

They were both in serious talks on this matter. However, as great knights they were almost equal in terms of strength and fighting experience, only Sir Jean was more selfish and stubborn than thinking smart before making a decision. Sir Jean thought Richard was a murderer and should be killed for his crimes.

While Snijder who thought long-term, began to think about the fate of the land of Neverland. In awe of Richard's power that almost killed Rever, Snijder tried to think positively about what Sir Jean had accused him of. For him, it could have been just a misunderstanding because Snijder thought that Richard would be better to be a partner than an opponent.

A long debate ensued, an argument even attacking each other between them was inevitable. The battle between the two great knights was presented in front of the knights and warriors after they had previously seen the fight between Richard and the demons.

Despite fighting, but the two great knights did not fight with all their might. More precisely Sir Jean only tried to attack Richard and move towards Richard but always managed to be blocked by Snijder, on the sidelines of the fight that they also fought each other.

At one moment when their weapons clashed against each other, an aura explosion occurred. They look at each other. "Mr Jean.. Think about it again! That guy managed to get Rever battered.. It wasn't that he could become a formidable partner to deal with the demon clan."

"Sad.. The killer is a murderer.. He must be killed!" Sir Jean was adamant.

The two of them were pushed back after attacking each other. Sir Jean again exerts an attack on Richard but again countered by Snijder, they again intersect. "Snijders... Damn, you're really making me sick. You can ruin Inggram's royal relationship with the Celestial kingdom if you continue to protect the fugitive." Said Sir Jean.

"I'm sorry.. But that person's abilities will really come in handy in the future!" Snijder.

The fight is back.. Both of them did not want to give up on their arguments.

While the two of them were fighting, Woli was still trying to support Richard who had not fainted, it was just like Richard had lost his consciousness because even though his eyes were open but his mind was not in this place.

Richard blankly thought of something else that made him unable to feel what was happening right now. Amidst the commotion, Richard's mind was recalling his dark past. He recalled when he got discriminated when he first came to this world, given how scary Rever was when he first met and remembered how he struggled to live in a labyrinth full of monsters.

Those bad memories made Richard speechless, for some reason his fight with Rever recalled the bad memories that once left him slumped. So drowned in that memory, Richard did not hear the sound of Woli who kept calling him and did not feel the fight that had occurred around him.

"What am I living for? Why am I sent to this world? Who am I really?" richard thought while rethinking those bad memories.

"Weakest Knight!! Huhahaha.

"Basic... Bawdy knights."

"Just shut you fuckin' up."

"Not useful."

"If you can only be troublesome, mending you stay in the palace."

"Hiaha.. Bawdy."

Bad words he had heard appeared in his head. I don't know why.. The words appeared.. He continued to think about the bad thing, he was getting drowned in the bad memories he had ever experienced.

Then.. "Dam." Snijder was thrown, he was knocked down by Sir Jean when he was off guard. It makes Woli and Richard entered the attack distance Sir Jean.

Without wasting any chance, Sir Jean lunged at him with a spear. Woli got up and stood in front of Richard to protect his master from the spear that was pointing at him.

"Master.. Mr. Richard.. Be aware sir." Woli shouted continuously but was not panned by Richard.

Richard continues to sink into bad memories until.. One sound made him diverted "Ignis.. You are the strongest knight! Be aware... Ignis...."

"Eh.. Ifrit!" His murmurs were sitting languidly behind the Woli. After hearing the whisper of the occult his consciousness returned, the empty eyes again revealed a reflection of the shadow of what he saw. Right now he was choosing a hairy man who was stretching out his hands in front of him, the hairy man was a Woli.

And from the front, approaching quickly an armored man lunged with a spear ready to pierce. Richard finally woke up.. He regained his senses and just before the spear pierced the Woli protecting him, he moved forward and subdued the Woli by pulling the Woli shirt back and forward capturing the spear that was pointing at him.

The woli that had fallen from being pulled back was shocked to see Richard catching the spear with his left hand. The spear that had been lined with wind imperium stopped instantly in Richard's hands. "Well..!" Sir Jean's eyes were wide open when the spear he was holding was easily held by Richard.

"Sad.. That guy's scary." Snijder smiled at the thing that had just happened, so he was convinced that Richard was a very great person and very worthy of being a partner.

"Aarrrgg..." Sir Jean did not give up, he shifted the spear to the right with all his might but the spear held by Richard did not move at all.

"How can.. That guy's been hurt but still able to withstand Master Jean's attack?" Eros stood in disbelief at the sight before him.

"Nobody comes any closer!!" Sir Jean shouted, he did not want anyone to help him because it could make his pride fall as a great knight. "This guy... I'll kill him myself!" Strictly Sir Jean.

Meanwhile Richard who had just come to his senses from the bad memories of his past was a little confused, he was confused because he was fighting with an unknown person who was not an acquaintance even though he had previously fought with Rever. After looking around he found neither Rever nor Luca Crollo, whom he saw only two knights with great empires.

"What's going on?" Ask Richard in your heart.

A moment later, with all his strength Sir Jean managed to unleash his spear and attacked Richard with a spear from left and right, but Richard retreated with a swift movement of his feet while holding Woli who was still injured and could not move freely. "My lord!!" Woli sumbringah.

"Hey boy, why are you back here?" Richard asked, annoyed at the sight of Woli.

"I'm here to save you, sir!"

"Well!! Saving me? Do I need to be saved.. Look now, I'm the one who came back to save you."

"Hehehehe..." Woli just smiled wily hearing that.

On the other hand, in front of the brand both. "I think I should be serious about fighting that guy." Sir Jean looked at Richard.

Then next to him, Snijder approached. "Mr Jean, stop.. Look at that guy.. Is he posing as a threat? He's human just like us." Snijder was still trying to advise Sir Jean.

Snijder's words went unanswered again, but this time Sir Jean gave off a huge aura as a sign that he would seriously attack the red-eyed man in front of him. Suddenly it made his subordinate knights astonished because they could see the true power of a great knight.

The aura was also felt by Richard tang since earlier denouncing the foolish actions of Woli who returned to this place after he was painstakingly saved earlier by Richard. "Sounds like that guy's getting serious?" He looked at Sir Jean.

A second later.. The wind wings came out of the armour of Sir Jean.. He flew right towards Richard.

"Huh! That guy's. Hehe.. Just this time I saw someone able to fly with the fire empire." Snijder looked at Richard who was also hovering with a thrust of fire on both of his soles.

And the lashing happened.. Sir Jean attacked with a spear. Richard did not retaliate but managed to evade by predicting the various types of attacks directed at him. Very fierce fight that occurred in the air again made those who saw unable to say anything.

"Sad... That guy's... Goddamn bum!" Kane was upset to see Richard able to match Sir Jean even with his injured body.

But over time, Richard's injured body finally reacted to make him off guard and hit by a spear punch that made Richard slammed down, lucky that hit it not the sharp tip of the spear but the stem of the spear.

As Richard crashed, the soldiers and knights, especially Kane cheered loudly.

Not until there, Sir Jean slid down with a kick but Richard quickly cried with both hands. Although deflected but a strong enough kick that made him pushed quite far back.

"Huh uh huh..!" Richard took a breath, it could not be denied if his fight with Rever had drained his strength.

Sir Jean did not want to miss the opportunity, one flap of wings he immediately shot towards Richard quickly along with the spear he pointed forward.

Snijder who saw it did not budge, he wanted to see what kind of response from Richard over the attack this time.

The moment the attack arrived in front of him, Richard dropped his body back and raised his hand to touch the ground, he saltoed while kicking the spear up until it slipped out of Sir Rean's grasp, but with the wind empire the spear was successfully controlled and exerted its responsibilities downwards, right at me Richard who had just risen up after performing an acrobatic move.

"Die!!!!" Sir Jean shouted while moving his hands down as the direction of controlling his spear from a distance.

Richard looked up and... The spear tore through his right thigh as it was too late to retreat. It seemed like his strength had indeed been drained, lucky that the spear only gave a scratch and did not penetrate his thigh.

But that deep enough scratch was enough to make Richard kneel. "Args.. Shit, who's that guy. Why did he attack me?" Ask in your heart,

The spear that was stuck in the blood returned to Sir Jean's hand. "Heh... Turns out that way. Hey you!! You have killed Mr. Grobogan, surrender or die! If you surrender, I will let you live to be taken to the palace, you will be punished according to King Inggram's decree in court.. But if I give up, I'm gonna kill you." Strictly Sir Jean.

"Huh.. Inggrams? The judgment!" Benak Richard's.

"Hm.. I still remember how you treated me in the royal court of Inggram.. How you guys look at me... I remember so much!" Richard muttered in a low tone.

Right too, at that time.. Richard was tried in a royal court on charges of harassment of royal servants. The thing he did not do at all, he was declared guilty and received punishment at that time. The worst.. Everyone looked at him with contemptuous eyes, all... Including the other holy knights.

Richard stood bowed, he endured the pain of the wounds on his thighs and his entire body. "I'm..."

"I've felt enough contempt from all of you... I will not be willing to stand before you, standing in the court you have arranged before!!" Richard shouted and instantly a black flame shot out from his left hand. An extremely powerful flame, it came out along with an emotion that exploded in his heart.

Everyone was surprised, the first time they saw such a fire because in the previous fight against Rever, the black fire had not been issued by Richard. This time, the black flames appeared.. It comes about because of his past emotions.

"Ga-watts.. It has to stop!" Said Snijder who was sweating and trembling when he saw the black flame.

After shouting Richard lunged, he stepped forward.. Just one step he was immediately in front of Sir Jean who was not even ready with the horses attacking him. "Ah.. Impossible." Her speech.

Snijder immediately acted upon the sight, but he was late because a violent blow with burning black flames was already aimed at Sir Jean's face.... A blow that burns anything until it burns out. The hell fire...
