"Is the way you Rhein people fight always this brutal?" Fenris looked at the Holy Light soaring into the sky in the distance and couldn't help but ask the Chief Knight under Rocky's command, "It's just dealing with a scholar who can't use Dream Power, is it really necessary to cause such a fuss? The whole town is about to wake up."
"Rocky Bishop's fighting style is indeed rather carefree," the Chief Knight said with a peculiar expression, "But are you really sure that the one our Bishop is dealing with is just a defenseless scholar?"
"Who else could it be? I've sensed he's over there," Fenris said, puzzled. "He couldn't have gotten stronger in such a short time, could he? Is working out really that effective?"
The Chief Knight couldn't help but give Fenris a glance.
No wonder Rocky Bishop kept saying this group of Eternal Nightmare Apostles slept so much that their minds got muddled, talking such BS.
But the problem is, the commotion over there from Rocky Bishop is indeed too big, from that noise, Rocky Bishop should have entered the 'Divine Blessing' mode.
But is there really anyone here who can make Rocky Bishop use 'Divine Blessing'?
To be safe, the Chief Knight still asked Fenris, "Is that Dream of All Living Beings you cast on the Bishop still there?"
"That's what I want to say," Fenris replied. "I can feel the Dream of All Living Beings is weakening, but the reason for the weakening is the noise being too loud, and people in the dream are waking up one after another, not because it was polluted and vanished."
"You mean, the Bishop's enemy didn't use that forbidden knowledge on him?"
Seeing Fenris say so, the unease in the Chief Knight's heart grew stronger.
Is Rocky Bishop really fighting that scholar? Could it be someone else?
"Knight Master," another knight asked cautiously, "Should we go support them?"
"But the Bishop hasn't ordered it," the Chief Knight frowned slightly. "What if he's just enjoying the fight? You should know Rocky Bishop, he loves making a big fuss over everything, didn't he make the loudest noise with that little priest in the carriage some time ago..."
"Ahem, Knight Master, mind your words, be careful,"
The Chief Knight snapped back to his senses, casting a glance at Fenris beside him.
Almost forgot there were outsiders present.
Luckily, Fenris still looked half-asleep, seemingly not finding anything wrong with their words, just muttering under his breath when the Chief Knight turned his gaze back, "That old fart sure knows how to have fun." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
"Knight Master, I think we should go take a look," that knight said again, "I keep getting a sense of déjà vu."
"Déjà vu?" the Chief Knight asked, "How so?"
"Um, to be honest, my brother works at the West Church," the knight said. "A few months ago, he encountered a similar situation, where the previous Bishop Corey dismissed all his knights and stayed alone in the Great Cathedral to 'entertain' a guest, ordering no one to approach."
"And then he became the previous Bishop," the knight answered honestly.
This sounds so dangerous.
But before the Chief Knight could make a decision, the commotion in the distance finally stopped.
The original noise and chaos suddenly fell silent, leaving everyone present caught off guard, instinctively looking at each other.
"Rocky Bishop couldn't be..." The knight swallowed the saliva stuck in his throat, "become the previous one too, right?"
The Chief Knight smacked the back of the knight's head hard.
"Damn it, don't go talking nonsense... I mean, if you really jinxed the Bishop to death, I'll be the first to deal with you!"
Though he acted tough, the Chief Knight was feeling a bit anxious inside.
Could Rocky Bishop really be dead?
Just as the Chief Knight hesitated over whether to defy orders and look for Rocky Bishop, a figure suddenly appeared at the far end of his vision, running wildly.
The Rhein knights were immediately overjoyed.
"The Bishop is back!"
"The Bishop isn't dead! He's not dead!"
Rejoicing as if achieving a great victory, it wasn't until Rocky ran up to them that they realized something was wrong.
Because at this moment, Rocky looked as if he had crawled out of a sea of blood, covered with wounds, his face pale like a butt, and his lips shivering uncontrollably.
The knights were shocked, not yet reacting to what had happened, when Rocky shouted furiously.
"What the hell are you standing there for? Help me, damn it!"
The knights snapped back to their senses and hurriedly went up to help.
"Bishop, what happened to you?!"
"We're here, we're here!"
Rocky grabbed a knight nearest to him, gritting his teeth, "Get my priests over here quickly, all the priests, have them follow plan number three to heal me, hurry!"
"Yes!" The knight promptly prepared to find the priests, but before taking two steps, he was pulled back by Rocky.
"And that damn woman!" Rocky yelled, "Go catch her too! She's done for as well, hurry!"
The Chief Knight immediately realized that the Bishop was referring to the enemy he had fought, and the other party's condition must be very poor as well.
"Rest assured, Bishop, we'll head out right away!" The Chief Knight said as he spoke, looking at Fenris on the side, "Mr. Fenris, please assist us."
