Chapter 80.1: East of Empire (4)
If such words were spoken to other hot-blooded young knights, they would have been seething with anger.
The investiture was more than just a ceremony for receiving knighthood.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
Of course, the title of knight was important, but young knights could not be satisfied with just that.
They always wanted to be the most honorable and outstanding knight themselves.
Once the Duke awarded the titles to the knights, congratulating them in the name of honor and glory, it was their chance to showcase their skills.
That was precisely what the tournament was for.
As long as you dont make a fool of yourself, its fine, isnt it?
Yes. Its an easy position if you just get rid of your pride.
Being chosen as the most outstanding knight would spread ones fame in front of the Duke and the crowd, and their name would be known in the east for a while, but it was a poisoned chalice.
In such group battles, it was necessary to have luck and connections, though it might be different in one-on-one combat.
Except for not using edged weapons, everything else was like war, so not only individual valor but also tactics and strategy were important. In this aspect, knights from powerful families naturally had an advantage.
The knights here had already entangled relationships in the name of their families before coming. They would move around those relationships even in the tournament.
If it were the Erlans Kingdom, it would have been better.
?
Elven knights would have chased after you.
Ah. . .
Johan chuckled, but Suetlg was serious.
Im not joking.
With my family and more formidable guys around, arent you overestimating me?
Knights arent that sharp-witted. . . Oops. Sorry.
Let it go.
Johan stopped Stephen, who was getting as worked up as if it were his own matter.
There was one reason.
In a tournament where fighters were divided into two groups, Johan was assigned to the eastern group. . . that is, a group with many barbarians.
The Dukes chancellor, inspector, and scribes tried to mix in some knights, but ultimately, choosing which side to aim the spear at was a personal choice.
Naturally, influences of friendships and family lineage were inevitable.
So, naturally, the knights gathered in the west were from western knightly familiesthose who consider themselves as part of the Empirewhile those in the east were the opposite.
Notable nomadic tribes from outside the Empire, barbarian families who had converted only a few generations ago, and even knightly families who had not converted were present.
As a result, while most knights in the west were humans with a few elves mixed in, the knights in the east were a diverse mix of humans, centaurs, dwarves, and their attire varied greatly.
They must have found it difficult to place me in the east since Im already familiar with the other guys.
Sir Johan. If you tell me, I will go and protest.
The people of the Jarpen family also looked stern.
Even considering the knightly courtesies for friends, placing Johan from afar in the east was questionable. They could even appeal to the Duke in the name of the Jarpen family.
Its really okay. . . I think it would be rude to the knights placed in the east to go and complain about it. Trying to build friendships and ending up making enemies.
Ah, no. . . but still.
Stephen blushed, realizing he hadnt considered that perspective.
Stephen and the Jarpen family members were all people of the Empire. To them, the knights were part of the western group, not the east.
And Stephen, go easy with the name of the Abner family. If Ulrike comes after you, youll have to fend her off yourself.
Ive changed too. Of course, I was careful.
Stephen grumbled, but Johan didnt believe him and asked Marco.
How was it?
