Reve squinted his eyes as soon as he heard that, 'The Knights Order!'

Despite being a reclusive individual, Reve wasn't so ignorant about the affairs of Arcadia. He knew what the Knights Order was.

To some, it was considered the most ancient organization. Records of this order could be found in many tales that originate from the era of sins. They could be traced all over the timeline of Arcadia.

The Knights Order, the perfect swords!

It is recorded in fables that they originated from a group of five individuals. These individuals of various races were demigods!

However, such paramount status did not detain them from swearing loyalty to another demigod called the Aura King, the first Aura King!

They swore to be his hands and ears all over Arcadia, enacting his will as he wished. However, as if they knew their mere number would not be enough, they recruited more members and formed what would be now known as the early Knight Order!

Wherever the Aura King appeared, they would be beside him. Even when he challenged the Immortal King, they were present in the illustrious moment.

Even after the Aura King died, the surviving members of the Knight Order still held their oath to that grand title. They swore to never die and become an eternal presence for the Aura King.

Of course, they couldn't become immortal, but they were the closest thing to immortals. Sure, their members died, but their creed…...lasted for eternity.

For decades, they would prepare themselves for the second coming of the Aura King. After the Second Aura King died, they waited diligently for the third.

…..and after the third, they waited for the fourth.

…..and after the fourth, they waited for the fifth.

The cycle kept repeated yet they remained till this very day!

The Knights Order, Guardians of the Aura King.

It was a good thing that there was no Aura King in this present times, or else, the Knights Order would be very active in the affairs of Arcadia

That was why at this very moment, Reve cocked his head at Circe, "What does this have to do with the Knights Order?"

Circe commented, "The Knights Order is speculated to have their headquarters in Xoris. It is unknown where exactly but Met believes that they surely reside there. Moreover, they are very close to the human kingdoms and act as a defense force for them. There is no way they wouldn't detect us if we infiltrate the kingdoms?"

Reve still didn't understand, "So, are you intimidated by them?"

He didn't believe they were. Of course, the Knights Order was terrifying, but after spending weeks with Nikan, Reve had come to know that they were differences between demigods.

If not, the five founders of the Knights Order wouldn't have sworn loyalty to the Aura King. One doesn't just enact a lifetime service to another person, even if that person is his benefactor.

Moreover, the Gehenna Order consisted of figures that were so illustrious that they were scrapped off legends and myths. Take Circe for example, not many people knew of her in the present times. 

"Of course, not. However, we can't deny that we would have to fight if we do face each other which will surely kill us. They are a lot of demigods that have disobeyed the world administrator…..and none of them lived to tell the tale. Hence, rather than risking something like that, it is better to steer clear from any potential risk that might require us to use our strength," said Circe.

Reve couldn't understand why she feared the world administrator so much. However, he could feel that she and the other Gehenna Order members took the vow seriously.

Circe explained, "Hence, that is why we would send people that are not strong enough to be detected by the Knights Order.  And what better weak individuals than our own prospects?!"

Immediately he heard that, Reve rejected, "No!" 

"Huh?" Circe showed a blank expression.

"No, I am not interested in this….mission," shouted Reve.

While he quite respected the Gehenna Order, he wouldn't be so foolish as to jump into a dangerous region for them.

"Why?" asked Circe.

"Why? Isn't it clear, Circe? You taught me to never be taken advantage of. Do you think I would enter a human kingdom to search for an object I have no idea what it is?" countered Reve.

"....."

"Moreover, there is also a risk of getting captured by the Knight Order. Not just that, I'm sure the Gehenna Order is not the only one privy to the rumor despite how high tier the rumor is. In essence, the kingdom would be a battleground and you want me to go there? Am I right?"

Circe's blank expression only lasted for a while before she smiled wryly, "I'm not forcing you. If you don't want to, then don't. With me by your side, no one can force you. I was of the belief that with your innate curiosity, you would be interested in the shards and the kingdom."

"I'm not. The human world records at least a thousand death each day. Yet, it is said to be in its most peaceful times," said Reve.

Even he was scared when he thought of that. Plus, he was more comfortable staying on Azea.

Nevertheless, he had a goal he would pursue when he was finally sound in strength.

For now, he had to accumulate more strength!

Reve sighed and told Circe, "I'm not comfortable with that."

He figured he should be honest with her.

Circe only took one pensive look at him and dropped the topic, "Okay."

From the corner of her eyes, she spotted a white snake and golden lion hiding behind a tree, but she ignored them, "By the way, are you able to wield magi efficiently now?"

"Yes, it is amazing, Circe. Now, I know why the school of arcanism always demands effort. Without my arduous training, I would have never been able to wield such a strange magical energy."

"Yes. It is truly wondrous. Let's pack up," Circe said.

She was already dreaming of crashing on her lovely bed. Nothing could stop her dream from becoming reality.

Before she could cast her teleportation spell, Reve chipped in, "Heh, Circe…....would it be possible to lend me your notes on enchantment magic?
