To truly conquer this Knight World, demonstrating personal might was essential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shall we begin now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Knight King asked eagerly. He was desperate to wipe away the humiliation of the bizarre duel just moments ago with a solid victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the training ground, Nareth stood one kilometer away from the knight mech. One side held the knights, their squires, and the Relic-Keepers; the other side, Bukayo, Gabriel, and the rest of the legionnaires, stood in silence, watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Daxos Gloria, Campbell hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I yearn for a battle at full strength… but I'm unsure if I should.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his right arm lifted, the multi-barrel autocannon roaring to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't want to jeopardize Daxos with a moment's recklessness.
