Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords

Li Wei, having packed his belongings, was walking through the castle. As he rounded a corner, he suddenly heard voices ahead—both male and female.

This was a corridor near the outer perimeter of the castle, leading to a small, hall-like room with a circular dome, connecting the left and right sides of the castle.

"Could it be a scene of a chambermaid having an affair with a knight?"

Li Wei stroked his beardless chin, indulging in wild guesses.

Since arriving in this world, he had read many folk novels like 'Knight Abin,' knowing that such things were common among the nobility.

Thinking this, he walked forward.

Of course, it wasn't that Li Wei wanted to see something scandalous, but after walking for the better part of the day, he had finally encountered people.

In any case, he needed to ask how to navigate the castle.

As Li Wei rounded the corner, his vision suddenly opened up, and the scene inside the small room came into view.

Swish, swish, swish!

Seven pairs of eyes simultaneously turned to him.

What came into view were five white-robed iron guards in silver armor, holding long swords, surrounding a girl and a guard.

"Ah!" A scream rang out.

No, now it was six.

As the guard was cut down, Li Wei fell silent, and after a long while, he said,

"I said I was just passing by, would you believe me?"

'Do you think we believe you?'

The group, startled by Li Wei's sudden appearance, didn't speak, but their eyes clearly conveyed this meaning.

"Alright, I admit I got lost and accidentally wandered in here, but it's not my fault. I won't disturb your pleasantries."

Li Wei turned to leave, but the situation he least wanted to see still occurred.

A surprised female voice rang out from behind.

"Li Wei, what are you doing here?!"

"Miss Lyria, long time no see."

Li Wei stopped and forced a smile as he greeted her.

Damn it, this was the reason he wanted to leave.

Because the one surrounded by these tin cans was Lyria.

Lyria, surrounded by the white-robed iron guards, looked at Li Wei with a face of surprise, as if seeing a savior.

She hadn't expected to meet the knight she had personally knighted here.

"Stop him."

Seeing that the two seemed to know each other, the leading white-robed iron guard gestured.

Two white-robed iron guards immediately surrounded Li Wei.

Looking at the five white-robed iron guards surrounding him, glaring menacingly, Li Wei didn't catch up with Lyria, who was looking happy, but said in a deep voice.

"Give me a chance!"

"Give you what chance?" The leading white-robed iron guard looked puzzled.

"I had no choice just now, but now I realize, I don't actually know this lady."

Lyria was stunned, not expecting Li Wei to say this. Li Wei's image in her heart plummeted.

"Heh heh." The leading white-robed iron guard had an expression that said, 'Do you think I believe that?'

Just as he was about to make a move, a subordinate came to his ear and whispered.

"Captain, this knight seems to be the legendary champion of the Colun Arena for several consecutive years."

"Oh?"

The leading white-robed iron guard's expression immediately changed as he looked at the small figure in front of him.

He knew that the Colun Arena was a competition for the entire Southern Territory, and the participants were masters of martial arts from all over the place, so it was very competitive.

Being able to win the championship for several consecutive years was not something ordinary people could do. He had participated once, but couldn't even get into the top twenty.

He had heard of this legendary champion, who was said to have killed a giant brown bear alone in the Sunset Forest.

His task was to capture Lyria Iseli, and there was no need to clash with this knight who seemed to be very strong.

"Are you that legendary champion?" But just in case, he confirmed again.

"As you can see." Li Wei nodded slightly, holding the air of a master.

This feeling of being recognized was like eating ice in the hot summer, refreshing from the soles of his feet to the scalp.

It was no less than being asked for his WeChat on the street.

So he was already so famous?

The white-robed iron guard couldn't help but be curious and asked.

"Knight Li Wei, you could have won the final reward by winning the arena for three consecutive years. Why did you stop competing after two and a half years?"

He was considered an admirer of this legendary champion, and this was something he had never understood.

Now that he had finally met this champion, who was rumored to be the undefeated champion in the history of the Colun Arena, he couldn't help but wonder.

Li Wei's expression became complicated, and his eyes revealed a look of reminiscence, which reminded him of a friend who also practiced for a Kun year.

"If you have nothing else to do, you can leave."

The leading white-robed iron guard interrupted Li Wei's memory.

"Hey? Li Wei, you are the knight I knighted, my vassal, how can you do this?"

Looking at Li Wei, who had instantly become one with the white-robed iron guards, Lyria finally couldn't help but remind him.

"I'm sorry, Miss Lyria. When I swore my oath, I said I would be loyal to Duke Silon, not the Iseli family, and not you!"

Li Wei felt it necessary to remind Lyria to pay attention to her wording, so as not to slander his reputation.

Lyria was dumbfounded, and when she thought about it, she realized that Li Wei had indeed said that he would be loyal to Duke Silon at the time. Because it was the first time she had knighted someone, she didn't notice anything wrong at the time.

Now that she thought about it carefully, she realized that she had been tricked.

"As a knight, you are violating the knightly code and insulting the honor of the Oli family name by doing this."

Lyria said angrily.

Li Wei gave her a strange look.

"I did swear by the honor of the Oli family name at the time, but my current surname is Targaryen. What does insulting the Oli family name have to do with my Targaryen name?"

When Li Wei became a pioneer lord, he left the Oli family and had the right to take a new surname and establish a new family.

It's just that he still used the Oli surname when he swore the oath.

"Ah?"

Lyria was completely dumbfounded and realized the treacherousness of people's hearts.

Although she was very smart, she had not experienced the beatings of society, so how could she play with Li Wei, this old fritter?

It would be almost the same if it were her mother, Onaya Martel, or Silon, that old bastard.
