I'm in bad mood now, I've finished this chapter halfway and my tablet went died just like that. Fuck.
Adair hurriedly saluted as he sees his Captain approaching, "Captain, where have you been?"
Sun raised an eyebrow elegantly and motioned Adair to come near which Adair immadiately response by walking up to him.
"Adair, under the luminance of the benevolent God of Light. Sun needs to inform you to gather up his children and bath under his luminance and brightness to wash up your sins and be a new person to be under his protection. Tonight, we will capture the vile Death Knight in the palace to teach him the God of Light's severity, thought it pains Sun. But Undeads are vile creatures that Sun have displeasure in knowing and seeing. " Sun rambled gracefully with his soft and gentle voice and Adair nodded seriously. So, gather the platoons tonight and go to the palace to kick the Death Knight's ass with so many plans omitted on his captain's part, right? Easy enough.
"Yes, Captain!" Adair saluted. And Sun nodded seems to be pleased.
"Ah, and Sun pained to inform Holy Knight brother Adair this, but please go on without Sun. Sun will be there by time." Sun added as an afterthought.
Adair nodded again. So, his captain would sneak around first then reunited with them right? "Understood"
Sun smiled and turned to leave. After his captain's out of earshot, Ed approach him, "So, what's the mission? Or... Captain just come for pleasantaries?"
Adair turned serious at once and turn to face his platoon, "Gather up, we have a mission."
Adair waited for the signal before jumped out of his hiding place, sword high in the air directed towards the accursed Death Knight, ready to pounce at the Dark creature anytime the situation asks.
A blast of Holy Light filled the room and his Captain come out of the closet gracefully. No one even made a comment as his manner is extremely graceful, also added to the fact that a Death Knight is present so they had no time to exchange a bit comments.
The Death Knight weakened and everything passed by pretty quickly in Adair's eyes.
"I knew it!" The Pig King come out from a secret chamber and went to the Death Knight and began to scorn him, "Lowlife! Trash! Useless!" each word the King said, the more Adair's felt distaste and the more he furrowed his brows. He glanced at his captain to see his reaction. Eyes coldly watching the King's movement and the ever smiling lips curled into a distasteful frown, his captain also hates this sight.
The Holy Knights could only watched helplessly as the Royal Knights tried to take the King away. The Pig starts to get in Adair's nerves.
"Stop it." surprisingly it's the Blaze Knight who said that and pulled the King harshly away from the Death Knight. Looks like he couldn't watch the king does as he pleases anymore. Which is understandable for Adair, whose captain has been slashed mercilessly from behind by the Death Knight, since then on Adair despise and resent the Death Knight so much, but he won't do anything like the King's doing!
"You-! You bastard! Royal Knights attack him!" the King ordered and the Royal Knights could only helplessly draw their swords and pointed it at Blaze. Which is a bad idea as Blaze's face flushed in anger and he gritted his teeth.
"HOW DARE YOU! Holy Knights, Attack!" Blaze roared furiously. Without any hesitation every Holy Knights redirected their weapons from the vile Death Knights toward the Pig King and his Royal Knights.
"Everyone, Stop!" Judgement roared and the Judgement Knight platoon obediently sheathed back their weapons. But the rest still pointed their weapons defiantly. Adair also ignored Judgement's order. Who care? The Judgement Knight doesn't have a really good relationship with the Sun Knight which is Adair's captain. Beside the Pig has gotten into his nerves.
"How dare you to direct your weapons to threaten the Church's one of Twelve Holy Knights!?" Adair shouted to stir the trouble. It irked him, imagine if the one who got threatened is his captain, Adair would be really furious. The other Holy Knights made a chorus of agreement.
"Attack!" the King roared.
"Attack!" Blaze roared even more loudly!
And the chaos ensues. Adair slashed, parried, dodged, and kicked as many as he could. If his deduction is right the one who spread the rumours should be from the palace, and it only burn Adair's rage even more.
Suddenly, a burst of villainous Dark element stopped them and they directed their attention toward the source, the Death Knight. What's happened? Didn't his captain has weaken the Death Knight with his amazing Holy Light? Everyone could only watch in horror as the Death Knight's evolving in front of them and calling forth the undeads in the process.
"Roland, No!" Adair heard his captain's voice and snapped his gaze to see... The Death Knight has already across the room and ready to slash the King into two or maybe more pieces. Sun without thinking throwing himself in between and got slashed instead.
"Ugh!" the Death Knight grimaced and jumped back.
"Captain!" Adair and several more of the Sun Knight platoon shouted in surprise.
"Ugh, Sun Knight platoon. Go and make sure no Undeads leave this room!" Sun quickly gotten his bearings back, and ordered.
The Sun Knight platoon nodded without any hesitation. "Yes, Captain!"
Adair stared at the Pig King in disgust and despise. As every once of his evil deeds has been uncovered in front of them by the Storm Knight of Twelve Holy Knights. Every Holy Knights expressed their disgust, some with hushed voice and some blantantly with loud voice. And he's also the one who spread the disgusting rumour about his captain! Unforgivable!
"Blaze... Purify that room, please." The Sun Knight's soft gentle voice filled the room with a bit ease. Blaze nodded and went int front of the room, he sighed and softly muttered the chant. Screams of anguish and desperation filled the room and every Holy Knights sent their prayers. The Royal Knights also prayed and exteremely shamed for their master's deed.
The whole fiasco ended with the Pig passed down the throne. And Adair glanced at his Captain who was turning his head sideways with and angle where his hair and bangs covering his eyes, a smirk playing on his face as if everything went smoothly according the plan, within the dark room that smirk almost unseen but with the help of the moonlight outside and his angle which is one straight line from the Pig King and Knight Captain Sun, Adair could sees it clearly. Adair held back his own smirk, he couldn't help but feel really proud now.
