Chapter 584: Chapter 584 Secret Language (End of this Volume)
“Valen Nicholas, you did not report a ‘title’ when you registered for the convention.
Is it necessary to add a title now?
This would be beneficial for your future engagement in knight activities and your positioning within the knight regiment.”
“Not for now…I want to add a title after I complete a certain task,”
It was not that Han Dong had forgotten about the title; rather, there was still one thing of great importance to him that remained unfinished.
To Han Dong personally, the title was not a simple alias. It came with standards.
Just like when he was a university lecturer in his previous life, certain requirements had to be met for a professional title.
Han Dong had set high standards for himself and believed he was not eligible for the corresponding title if he did not meet these standards.
“Alright… now let me briefly summarize the basic information of the first ranked prospective knight in this convention – Valen. Nicholas.”
Major: Mysticism-Plague
Minor: Library-Black Magic
Breaking the Breed Target: Scarlet Count (Mature -Demon)
Talent Tree: Smiley Face (Note: a brand-new fusion category, which may have undergone unexpected changes due to the first instance of Breaking the Breed with a Mature Deviant Demon)
“Now, I would like to invite the team captains to express their views.”
There were several prospective knights who had already joined the knight regiments and had received a warm invitation from some team captain.
Abe, the third-ranked, was even granted the opportunity to be jointly trained by two knight regiments.
The overall quality of the graduates this year surpassed those of previous years.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
As the first prospective knight, what privileges will Han Dong receive? Which knight regiment will he choose? The entire audience was eagerly looking forward to it, and the councilors had been waiting here as well.
When referee Alonso summarized the information, the team captains started making corresponding gestures.
Black Rose Knight Squad – Luke Curran, expressed the attitude of a warm invitation.
Since the beginning of the convention, Captain Curran had wanted to recruit Han Dong, and Han Dong had also earned the Night Guard Medal in a former Knight’s training session.
Plague Knights – Moggleny Hesterwell, exhibited the attitude of a warm invitation… This was not surprising at all, as they both practiced Dual Cultivation, and both studied Plague. Black White was the vice-captain of the Plague Knights.
“Haha… The student of the Crow, let me join in! I warmly invite you to join the Behemoth Knight Group and become the best partner with my grandson!”
Behemoth Knight Group – Kaimon Rhein, expressed the attitude of a warm invitation.
Doomsday Knight Brigade – The Great Demon, after recruiting Dumps, also stood up and expressed the attitude of a warm invitation.
Witch God Knight Legion – Jerroth Midaeum lightly patted the armrest to express the attitude of a warm invitation. He gave high recognition to the Black Magic shown by Han Dong during the competition.
Terminal Knight Regiment – Captain Alex, Death God, presented the terms of a grand invitation.
Within the Scarlet Knights.
The Duchess was staring at Nicholas on the field, her eyes twinkling with an extremely rare ‘interest sheen’… especially the ‘demonic posture’ displayed by Han Dong during the council test.
Duchess Shaia didn’t mind this at all, she even found such a posture fascinating.
Especially the unique blood energy radiating from Han Dong, which fascinated the Duchess.
Without needing any explanation from Blood Knight Lucius, Duchess Shaia, having voted for Han Dong before, currently also exhibited a rather strong attitude of a warm invitation.
Hell Knight Corps – Captain Marlon, extended a grand invitation for Han Dong to join the Hell organization.
WindRider Knights, the captain without light, Jack, after Han Dong proved his innocence, also expressed the attitude of a warm invitation.
Han Dong displayed excellent sensory abilities during the Golden Apple test, and he seemed to have noticed Han Dong’s eye issue.
At this point, Gold Master stood up.
Seemingly because his vocal cords were clogged by too much fat, the Gold Master had to tug at the fat around his neck with his fingers to expand his vocal chords and emit sound.
“I, Gary Ged (Gold) Troswick, cordially invite you, Nicholas, to join the [Steam Knights].”
In addition to the corresponding invitation benefits, I will also hire you as the chief researcher of the [Brass Laboratory], provide you with a separate laboratory, a research fund of 200,000 copper coins every year which can be used freely, and offer support with the most advanced steam technology.
Whatever you wish to do, I can make it happen.
I appreciate you greatly!”
The Gold Master made an offer that was hard to refuse.
Moreover, he spread out his thick, fat-covered arms, giving him a personal and passionate invitation.
Such an attitude from the Gold Master was unseen before by the knights.
Once Han Dong joined, he would receive endless wealth… even the biological lab outside the city would get maximum resource support, accelerating the [Mansion’s Armed Technology].
Finally, it was the turn of the Secret Language Knight Order, which only had one member present.
Captain Hugo wrote the large word “Invitation” on paper with an oily pen and held it up to show his stance.
“This… all eleven captains have sent an invitation! Has this ever happened before? And the Gold Master actually gave such terms… a full 200,000 copper coins a year!”
Intense conversations stirred up among the audience.
This was a spectacle never seen before.
Many knights looked on with envy.
At this moment, Han Dong spoke up.
“Firstly, I want to thank all the captains for their kind invitations… before I make a choice, I would like to especially thank those captains who have taken good care of me all this while.
Thank you to the Great Plague Chief for guiding me in ‘dual cultivation’.”
Thank you Captain Marlon for letting me play in Fate Space, and for saving my life during the Big Traitor Incident.”
“Thanks, Captain Alex, for looking after me in the underground area.”
As for some scientific matters, I’m also willing to share privately. Thank you, Gold Master.”
During the conference, I made a decision…
I will join the [Secret Language Knight Order], to conduct a deep investigation into the ‘Origin of Demon’, and provide necessary information and backup help for those who trust me.”
The audience was deathly silent for a moment.
In fact, many who perceived the sudden turn of events at the conference predicted this outcome.
After a while, various discussions were quietly spreading among different sections of the audience.
“Isn’t it not the first time now?
I remember last year, the year before that, and many other Knight Conferences before, where the ‘first pick’ was ‘snatched away’ by Captain Hugo.”
Yes, the Puppeteer-Knight Charlie who appeared on stage earlier, was also the top scholar from the conference ten years ago.”
“What’s so good about the Secret Language Knight Order?”
But as the discussions continued, Han Dong had made his choice.
The matter was settled.
Capitan Marlon, sitting in his seat gave up on his idea of taking his toiletries tonight to block the Death God’s home. Instead, he planned to have a drink and chat with the Death God about private matters.
“Hugo Harrison… has gained another top-notch member.
However, I have to admit Captain Hugo’s special tactics.
The Secret Language Knight Order which has always refrained from participating in expeditions and rarely conducts investigations, will probably show different moves in the upcoming grand expedition.”
What do you think?
