I have a Synthesizer

#54 - Kneel down for me

The Miss Becky that Hawkins mentioned was the same Becky whose seat Klein had taken and who was beaten by Lilith.

At this moment, she was wearing a suit of iron light armor, and the aura she exuded was a bit stronger than when Klein had seen her at the training ground.

She carefully wiped her greatsword, which was a weapon of the 'marvelous item' grade and also an heirloom of her family.

Although this 'marvelous item' grade sword didn't even have a name, it was Becky's only valuable possession, and she always took good care of it.

Becky was a very hardworking and diligent person, and she always adhered to the knightly code that most knights no longer cared about.

After entering the Royal Academy, Becky's strength had been steadily improving at a rapid pace.

After nearly 4 months of rigorous training in the Knight Department, she had firmly established herself at the first rank.

She hadn't experienced the baptism of battle and blood, but that didn't mean she was stupid.

Becky naturally understood what Hawkins meant, but she didn't intend to agree. The Fireblade Sect might have second-rank experts, and possibly more than one.

Although the Fireblade Sect's combat power was generally weak, one more person meant one more strength. Experience was important, but one's own safety was even more important.

The other independent individuals were all taking a wait-and-see attitude. Their mission team lacked close combat, so Becky's value was self-evident. Even Hawkins had to consider it carefully.

Now that Becky had chosen to continue waiting, the others certainly wouldn't have any objections.

If they were short of a knight, who would be in front tanking when they fought at the Fireblade Sect's stronghold with so many ranged fighters?

Hawkins nodded when he saw that Becky had chosen to wait.

"Then let's continue waiting."

Although everyone was a little impatient, they had already waited for so long, and there was no reason to make the team disharmonious because of two people who hadn't arrived.

The mission was about to begin soon, and team stability was the most important thing.

Even if the Fireblade Sect had second-rank experts, as long as they weren't too strong, he was confident that he could deal with them alone. Moreover, there was also support from the Safety Department of Leisha City, and their captain, Devoed, was also a second-rank warrior.

Seeing that Hawkins had decided to continue waiting, Brull and Athena also calmed down.

They were Hawkins' partners, and what Hawkins relied on to convince the two wasn't just personal charm.

……

As night approached, the academy students were preparing to return to the temporary residences arranged for them in Leisha City.

Just when everyone thought the remaining two wouldn't arrive, Lilith, supporting Klein, finally arrived at the Safety Department of Leisha City.

Lilith, covered in dust, and Klein, who looked like a sickly person, didn't look like a very strong combination.

Becky naturally saw the two of them as well, and was slightly surprised. Lilith also noticed Becky's gaze, but Becky didn't say anything.

A knight's honor and sense of responsibility prevented her from bringing personal grudges into collective missions.

Besides, they had fought before. Now that they had accepted the same mission, they were teammates.

Klein looked at the group of people staring at the two of them and said a little embarrassedly.

"Has everyone arrived? We had some accidents on the road. We shouldn't be late, right?"

Klein's words were very polite, with a hint of inquiry. He didn't want to cause trouble. The long journey had made him a little tired, so he wanted to find a place to rest first.

"You're just about on time!" Hawkins said.

Lilith could see the dissatisfaction these people had towards her and Klein, but she wasn't someone who would suffer losses.

"What do you mean 'just about on time?' I can't read, can you explain it to me carefully? It's obviously you guys who arrived early. How can you blame us for being late?

I really don't understand, why be so eager with a three-day travel time? The mission won't give you an extra penny. What, are you waiting for the academy to give you a little red flower?"

As soon as Klein heard Lilith say this and saw the other party's expression, he knew something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, Lilith's inflammatory words made some of the academy students who had accepted the mission unable to accept it, especially the hot-tempered Brull.

He certainly couldn't tolerate it. In fact, even if he could tolerate it, he had to pretend he couldn't. If he didn't step forward, would he let Hawkins step forward?

As a subordinate, one must understand the boss's attitude. This was a lackey's self-cultivation, even if he had brains, he had to pretend he didn't.

"Everyone was waiting for you two, and you still have the nerve to say sarcastic remarks here?"

Lilith crossed her arms.

"What? Is it a fine for saying sarcastic remarks? Go get someone to collect my money!"

"You!"

Brull really didn't expect Lilith to be so unreasonable. He originally just wanted to rely on the number of people and the pressure of the entire team to make the other party bow their head.

This way, he could ensure Hawkins' position as captain. They didn't covet the position of captain.

But undeniably, becoming the captain of the mission team could make the mission more efficient and greatly reduce the chances of accidents. This was the purpose of Brull stepping forward.

However, he didn't expect Lilith to not buy it at all, which made it difficult. If he didn't continue to argue, he would lose face. If there was a real conflict, what would happen to the mission?

After thinking for a moment, Brull decided to give the other party some lessons. With Hawkins backing him up, there shouldn't be any problems.

He rushed forward and was about to push Klein.

But a slender arm grabbed the arm he was pushing towards Klein.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The sound of muscles squeezing bones came from Brull's arm, and he was already sweating profusely.

Lilith smiled contemptuously.

"Playing power games? Bullying people, huh? Okay, anyone who wants to come, come together."

Lilith's domineering attitude was unacceptable to not just Brull, but even the others for a while.

Only Becky, who knew Lilith well, knew that this was Lilith's temper.

Becky didn't speak. She didn't intend to stop the conflict between the two sides. On the one hand, she wanted to see if she had caught up with Lilith's current strength.

On the other hand, she also wanted to see the level of Hawkins' group.

Hawkins was slightly surprised. To stop the arm of a first-rank warrior with one hand and in a posture that made Brull unable to move, this strength was probably already at the second-rank level.

Brull was really angry at this time. He couldn't tolerate being grabbed by the arm by a seemingly weak woman and being unable to move.

With anger surging, he drew his sword and slashed at Lilith.

Lilith's smile was even brighter than before. She also drew her already chipped iron sword and met him.

"Clang!" The tremor of metal colliding echoed in the courtyard.

Lilith's body didn't move at all, and she suppressed Brull's war blade with one hand. A layer of black battle aura covered the broken blade, ensuring that the iron sword wouldn't break.

Under the huge force, Brull's body was being pressed lower and lower, and he was about to kneel on the ground.

Lilith raised her head slightly.

"I hate you guys who bully honest people the most."

Klein? ? ?

Just now, the other party was obviously bullying him. Lilith said that the other party was bullying honest people, so he = honest person.

Honest person… Klein didn't like this title very much.

The opposite Brull gritted his teeth tightly, urging the battle aura of his whole body to the extreme, so that he would not kneel on the ground.
