“Contrary to your reputation, you don’t seem that talented.” The Golden Knight, Kayne, glanced at James with obvious disappointment. He shook his head and smirked. “I thought the Dragon King of Sol would have a more commanding presence, but you don’t look particularly impressive. There’s a word for guys like you in Sol, right? What was it? Oh, right. I think it was… pretty boy?”James simply smiled indifferently.He was not infuriated.Seeing Kayn provoking James, the Queen did nothing to stop him. Instead, she cast Kayn a meaningful gaze.Kayn immediately understood her intentions.Whoosh!Suddenly, he unsheathed the long golden sword hung around his waist and pointed it at James.James said calmly, “What’s the meaning of this? Is this the way Durandal treats its guests? If so, I’ll return to Sol immediately.”“Durandal is a nation that treasures strength above all. We welcome guests with a duel. If you’re strong, you’ll be given due respect. If you’re weak, then you should

With a gloomy expression, he looked at his sword’s broken blade in his hand and hissed, “That d*mn brat! This isn’t over!”Clank!Kayn tossed awat the broken sword in his hand, got on his horse, and quickly left the scene.“Kayne…”Yelena shouted for Kayne, but he ignored her and left with the knights in tow.Anger flashed across her pretty face. “What’s wrong with you? I’m not the one who broke your sword. Why’re you ignoring me?”After muttering bitterly, Yelena quickly left and tried to catch up with the Queen.Peter’s Castle symbolized power in Durandal and was the imperial family’s residence.The castle was heavily guarded by the most highly skilled royal guards of Durandal.However, this was all information that anyone and everyone knew.In actual fact, secret knights also guarded the castle, but the information was hidden from the public.The status of a Durandal knight was equivalent to ancient martial artists in Sol. Not everyone knew about their existence.A luxur

“Alright, I’ll leave that to you. Let me know when you’ve made the arrangements.”After a brief call with the founder of the Dark Castle, James hung up the phone. Then, he looked at Henry smugly and said, “It’s settled. We can rest up for now and think about what excuse we can use to leave for a few days.”“Alright.”Henry had no objections.“Go ahead and get some rest.”James was exhausted after the ten-hour flight.After a short discussion with Henry, the two took it easy in the castle.Meanwhile, in another castle of Durandal called Keyes Castle.This was the residence of the Keyes family.The Keyes were the most powerful family in Durandal. They were the nation's protectors, and almost all their family members were knights.“Are you sure?” In the castle's living room, an old man furrowed his brows as he heard Kayn’s words. “Are you saying a man from Sol caught and broke your sword with only two fingers?”“That’s it, Grandpa! Please, you have to avenge me! This Dragon

Evan was shocked and spluttered. “Sir, please reconsider! The Excalibur is the symbol of our knighthood. If you give it away, our knights will lose their faith…”Koehler raised his hand and interrupted Evan.“I’ve already decided. In the past couple of centuries, no one was born with the Knight's Soul and thus no one is capable of wielding Excalibur. Anyway, I just intend for it to be a lucrative attraction. Even if I give it away, the person who gets it may not be able to wield it. I simply want a chance to fight against powerful people from all over the world before I die. It’ll be the perfect finale for my life.”“I understand. I’ll see to it immediately.”Evan did not stay long. He left as soon as he had finished talking to Koehler.Koehler walked outside and stood on the castle wall. His eyes peered into the distance.His wrinkled face was filled with resolve and determination.“This time, I want to show the world the strength of knights and prove that we’re the strongest e

James said helplessly, “If you insist on coming with us, then we’ll have to travel more discreetly.”“Alright. I’ll arrange for it right away.”Yelena seemed excited. She immediately made a phone call, and soon a silver Rolls Royce appeared at the castle’s gates.The number on the license plate was incredibly overt and it was immediately recognizable as the car of the imperial family.“Princess, this car is still too flashy. We need to keep a low profile. Do you understand the meaning of that word?” James whispered in frustration.“Huh? Is this still too much? This is already very low-key,” Yelena replied dejectedly.“We need a cheap and common car. We’ll also need a license plate that doesn’t attract attention.”Yelena was confused by his request.After attempting to explain his intent to her several more times, Yelena finally understood. She snapped her fingers and grinned at him. “I get it!”She quickly made another phone call.This time, an ordinary vehicle approached.J
