Chapter 4 The Apple Boy and the Leader of the Knights
Blaze decided to hand over the murderer on his shoulder to the Knights of Balkan City. This was the safest way to deal with it. It is said that a stranger who harms a stranger will have all his property and half of his power confiscated by the Knights, and will be saddled with huge debts. Many strangers have become honest or simply disappeared.

After arriving at the west gate of Balkan City, Blaze stopped. He saw a red-haired female knight standing majestically at the gate of the city, looking at him with eyes that could be described as a covetous gaze.

"Blaze, why didn't you go home last night!"

There is no doubt that Marika, the leader of the Royal Knights [Red Dragon], is questioning Blaze who does nothing to buy apples every day, not Black Beast Knight Blaze.

There is a little bit of karma here, simply put, Blaze and Marika were childhood sweethearts. Of course, Marika didn't have much contact with him because of her status as the leader of the Royal Knights.

Whenever the stranger discussed Marika with gusto in front of him, he expected the stranger to talk to him and let him join in the conversation.

If a stranger asks about Marika, he will be happy to share the story about Marika and tell the stranger that the spear in Marika’s hand is one of the prototypes of the legendary gun [Kungunir]. The reason why Marika can use this weapon is actually because she has dwarf blood.

However, having dwarf blood is Malika's biggest secret. If the stranger doesn't have a good relationship with him, he will never tell it.

It's a pity that because he has the same name as Black Beast Knight Blaze, the strangers don't pay much attention to him.

The story has gone far, and now Marika is standing at the city gate. There is no doubt that she heard that he stayed away all night, and hurriedly retreated from the front line to find him. The worry and anxiety before he was found would turn into anger after he was found, so Blazer decided to exercise every prisoner's right to remain silent.

Blaze threw the old man BIG on his shoulder to Marika's feet. Marika raised the gun and lowered the pestle, controlling the old man BIG who was still struggling.

[Honor value 58/1000]

[Arrest those with the title of murderer +50]

[Rescue persecuted strangers +3]

As expected, the honor value has increased, and catching 20 more murderers will lift the armor's curse, but things shouldn't be that simple.

Blaze swayed back to avoid Marika's spear, and sure enough he took his silence as a disregard for her and became angry.

As if due to the attack, Blessing automatically popped up and marked Marika.

----------------

This is information from Marika, who is worthy of being the leader of the Royal Knights.

If it were an arm wrestling match, this person could probably crush his armor and hands together, and then pull his arms off his shoulders.

At this time, there was a noise in the Balkan city, and the church where the teleportation magic circle was set up was continuously receiving the beams of light falling from the sky. Many foreigners are constantly being teleported to Balkan City, including those with a special red halo.

He was a stranger with the title of murderer, and the screams of the old man at the fruit stall had already been heard in the city.

Marika hesitated between maintaining order in Balkan City and catching her childhood sweetheart. This flaw was caught by Blaze.

Blaze suddenly turned around and ran. After running two steps, he turned his head sideways like an instinct and caught something thrown at him. an apple.

Even if he didn't look back, he could still see Marika's angry but helpless look. After taking off this armor, he will honestly apologize.

Blaze ran into a forest in one breath, and stopped only when the Balkan City became a blurry background. This forest is the trade route of the [Hermes Brigade Hat] Chamber of Commerce, which has a branch in Balkan City.

[Hermes' Traveling Hat] often commissions strangers to clean up the beasts or monsters around the trade routes. Sometimes the cleanup will last for several days, so there will be things left by strangers or [Hermes' Traveling Hat] around the trade routes. Traces of the camp.

Blaze found the remains of one of the campsites, still warm from the campfire. After picking up a few dry branches and lighting the bonfire again, Blaze sat down.

From meeting the Black Beast Knight yesterday, to being attacked by a stranger after waking up as a Black Beast Knight, to catching the stranger and pressing him against the Knights, he barely had a chance to breathe.

Now I can finally take a break and eat something.

Blaze looked at the apple in his hand.

【Unknown Seed】

[The seeds of a certain giant plant can gain a lot of intelligence after being eaten, but they will also be cursed. 】

"You can't eat this." Blaze lowered his head. It was obvious that Marika, whose intelligence was 0, couldn't tell what was edible and what was inedible.

Fortunately, after receiving the blessing and wearing the armor, he never felt tired or hungry, and he didn't risk being cursed by eating this weird apple.

"But it's time to put this thing away..."

Before Blazer finished speaking, the apple in his hand turned into a string of fragmented numbers and disappeared, and the blessing frame reappeared. A warehouse-like icon lit up, and the apple appeared in the warehouse icon. In the small grid below.

No matter how many times, Blazer would marvel at how miraculous the blessing was.

Even if you have never seen a creature before, as long as you have the blessing, you can know the details of the other party, and heavy goods can be stored through the blessing.

However, I heard from strangers that as long as the LV gap is too large, special skills are needed to find out the details. Once the goods that a blessing can store exceed a certain number, corresponding skill expansion is required.

"LV and skills?" Blaze looked at the blessing frame and muttered words that strangers often mentioned. It is the standard used by the blessed, or the stranger, to describe combat prowess. At the same time, he also remembered that the stranger said the level of the Black Beast Knight.

"LV30."

However, there is no relevant content displayed on the blessing. Apart from the extra [Warehouse], there are only the blessing guidance task to lift the armor curse and the progress bar of [Honor Value 58/1000]. Other information is still locked as always.

However, Blaze found a little clue. Many of the frames displayed by Blessing were empty, and the location where [Warehouse] appeared happened to be part of the empty space. In other words, it's not that everything is locked for Blessing, it's that he hasn't used that feature yet, so it's not showing up.

So if he wants to use the functions related to LV and skills, it is best to absorb the souls of other creatures, or as foreigners say, get experience points to upgrade.

"There seem to be a lot of monsters on this business road. You may encounter a lot of monsters along the way, and maybe you can help strangers get honor points."

While Blaze was thinking about countermeasures, he also wanted to complain. Are the people in [Hermes' Brigade Hat] engaged in charity? They are unwilling to open up other routes even though they have been harassed by monsters and beasts.

He had never thought about this before, instead he was just grateful for the efforts the stranger made to protect the goods.

With the financial resources of [Hermes' Brigade Hat], you can open up a new trade route in a few days, just change the fixed route. How complicated can it be, and can you avoid attacks by wild beasts and monsters.

If you have the chance, be sure to remind the person in charge of [Hermes' Brigade Hat].
