I was expelled from the team and was recruited by the demons?

Wang Du. Eli, the branch of the Holy Wood Knights

, looked up at the golden office hall in front of

him, and was suddenly a little distracted.

This thing was made entirely out of money!

Let's not talk about anything else, just those gilded white porcelain, at first glance, the price is expensive.

And the glass lamp hanging from the top, that thing is actually powered by magic?

The military expenses of this knight order are inevitably too sufficient.

"Hehe, this is all built by the Duke with his own assets, including the daily expenses of the entire Knights, material preparation, and the Duke has not contributed less."

"So much so that he hasn't even repaired his duke's palace for several years."

The chief knight noticed the surprise in Eli's eyes and smiled.

Eli nodded.

No wonder Duke Wens can be called a pillar of the country, such a person, no matter what era he is in, can be called a hero.

When Eli arrived at the council hall, Eli found that there were many people who had been brought over by the knights like him.

Several of them had not taken off their scarves, and Eli had pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation.

Only then did I know that those people were masked all day because of the scars on their faces.

In order to maintain their dignity, the Knights did not let them take off their scarves.

The Holy Wood Knights are exactly the same as the setting in the game, and they are completely a great and upright team.

Seeing this scene, Eli couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

And when he looked up, he saw that at the front of the council chamber, there were two people looking at everyone indifferently.

The two are a man and a woman, just looking at their appearance, both of them are blonde and blue-eyed, but their faces are somewhat similar, and they seem to be brothers and sisters.

It seems like...... I've never seen them in the game...

Eli searched his memory in his mind, but he couldn't find anything similar to these two.

"Everyone, be quiet."

The blonde young man on the stage raised his hand and made a fist-clenching motion, and the people in the audience who were still talking suddenly quieted down.

"I'm the active deputy head of the Knights of the Holy Wood, Byrons. Hilton. "

I invite you to come here today because just yesterday, our vanguard stationed at the south gate of the royal capital was attacked."

The young man's words did not have any opening words, and he came up and went straight to the point.

And his words directly made everyone in the audience restless again.

Eli was also grim at this time, after all, he was only guessing at first.

Unexpectedly, there are really people who dare to attack the Guardian Knights of this country in the royal capital...

He hadn't even done it before when he was in the game!

"Don't be nervous, everyone, we are just asking routinely, the attacker that night was masked, so we don't know what he looks like, but what is certain is that he is an adventurer in the combat profession."

Speaking of this, Byron instructed his knights to distribute the scrolls that tested the profession to everyone.

Then, he continued

, "Everyone uses this scroll to check their respective classes, and if it's a non-combat type,

you can leave the field first."

"If necessary, you can also eat in the cafeteria outside, and we will pay for it."

Eli took the scroll from the chief knight and was in a dilemma for a moment.

He wasn't sure if it would detect his second class as the Lord of the Night.

After a moment's hesitation, Eli put his hand down.

As a dazzling magic array flashed, the hammer rune representing the forge gradually appeared on the parchment scroll.

And the identity of the King of the Long Night does not seem to have been detected.

Eli breathed a sigh of relief, at least it would save a lot of trouble.

"Blacksmith? Little brother can, I saw your temperament before, and I thought you were a thief! The

knight captain on the side noticed the scroll in Eli's hand, and after knowing that he was not a combat professional, he immediately let down his vigilance.

"Haha,"

Eli laughed dryly.

What kind of temperament, you just saw the dagger on my waist, and what you said is quite mysterious.

And what is strange about what you say, what is the temperament of a thief, this is a boastful word?

"Non-combat class members can leave the arena first."

Seeing that everyone was almost tested, Byron also beckoned them to go first.

"I'm sorry about this time, if I need to forge equipment in the future, I'll contact you and take care of your business."

The knight chief smiled and patted Eli on the shoulder, worthy of a man from the army, his hand strength was terrifying, and this slap almost broke Eli.

Eli nodded, and then no longer hesitated, intending to leave the place with the flow of people.

However, at this time, a clear female voice came from the stage and stopped them.

"Wait a minute, everyone, do you know this thing?"

Eli subconsciously looked back.

At this glance, his whole person was suddenly stunned in place, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Christine, standing on the stage, is holding a gorgeous and delicate amethyst necklace.

And the pair of sharp blue gemstone pupils took in the expressions of everyone in the audience with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Why would this thing—"

Eli looked at the crystal necklace in shock, her pupils constricting uncontrollably.

He knew the thing, or rather, he was afraid that he knew more about its origin than anyone present.

That amethyst necklace.

He carved it out with his own hands.

It was also a gift he gave to Cynthia when he was in the Morningstar Guild.

Eli still remembers it vividly.

On that day, Anna approached him and said that the guild had been attacking the maze in recent days, so it was in a financial situation where it was unable to make ends meet.

For this reason, all the members of the guild unanimously decided to take out some things that they did not need and sell them for money.

Eli didn't have a problem with this at the time, but he rather appreciated Morningstar's approach.

But when Anna handed the amethyst necklace to Eli, Eli's expression was almost the same as it is now.

He knew that he hadn't seen Cynthia wear it since he gave it to her.

But Eli still comforted himself at the time, feeling that this thing was really not suitable for a warrior like Cynthia.

Maybe she didn't like it, but she just put it away for the time being because she found it inconvenient.

However, when Cynthia chose to sell this thing, he also consciously or unintentionally alienated Cynthia.

Although she gave her what she gave her, it was her freedom to do what she wanted...

But why let him sell it?

This is something Eli couldn't understand even if he wanted to break his head, but after that, he was slowly relieved.

And this relief is not only about this matter, but also about his attitude towards Cynthia.

He's not the kind of person who will put in the effort for feelings that can't see the progress bar.

In other words, Eli is willing to give for the sake of his feelings, but this contribution must not be worthless.

However, Eli did not expect that he would ever see the chain again.

And just when Eli was surprised, a familiar voice outside the door once again attracted his attention.

Eli turned a little stiffly, and his eyes met Anna, who was standing outside the chamber.

"I've been notified by the Knights, and I know where the necklace came from."

Anna faintly walked through the crowd, and as she reached the middle of the chamber, she also felt an inexplicably familiar gaze.

Anna was stunned, then slowly turned around.

At this moment, Anna and Eli looked at each other.

They both saw an incredible light in each other's eyes.
