If you encounter an extreme member of the Neseriel Sanctuary, they might accuse Ethan of slandering the Holy Hall’s legendary figures and launch an attack on him.
Ethan continued his bold theory, speaking with fervor, "All stories about legendary knights actually express one thing—they were ordained from the start. Although they would also experience hardships and fall into valleys, at the most critical moment, the Knight Lord would guide them to make the most crucial step and personally hand the Sacred Sword to them."
"Right... right? No, not right!"
Rowena was dizzy from Ethan’s talking, slumped in her electric wheelchair, she pressed the massage button switch, only this could help her recover from dizziness.
Anyway, she just felt something wasn’t right, but couldn’t articulate what was wrong.
Due to Ethan’s remarks, the holy veil of the Neseriel Holy Hall Knights was peeled away, making people feel that those saints were actually marketed.
"Ethan, this is a typical case of reversing cause and effect."
Ave wasn’t so easily fooled, although Ethan seemed to be spouting absurdities, she listened carefully to every word and immediately pinpointed the issue, "It’s not having a story that makes one a saint; only by becoming a saint does their story deserve to be told and passed down!"
"Ave, you said it well."
Ethan faced Ave, "Then let me ask you, can you name a knight who was granted the Sacred Sword by the Knight Lord but did not become a saint?"
This direct soul-searching question left Ave puzzled, her golden hair on top shifting and showing signs of smoking.
Ethan always felt Ave’s cooling function might have some issues as her head would emit steam when she was deep in thought.
Unable to find an answer, Ave could only request outside help, "Sister Bi’an, I’m not very familiar with Holy Hall affairs, are there such knights?"
Bi’an was also long dizzy from Ethan’s theory, intelligence wasn’t her strong suit, she was confused even earlier than Rowena, this is Ethan’s most terrifying point, every time he looks like he’s talking nonsense, but when you think about his words carefully, some seem reasonable, yet when you try to analyze the reasonableness, you’ve already been led into circles by him.
She appeared puzzled, "All knights granted the Sacred Sword became saints, and all within a short time."
Then, wasn’t Ethan’s theory completely fine?
This threw Bi’an into self-doubt, "So, I’ve always been missing a good story?"
Ave was also speechless, unable to find a reason to refute.
Ethan continued, "Whether my earlier theory is reversing cause and effect is not important, what matters is, why can’t we utilize this rule?"
According to Saint Hilman’s research on the Day of Destruction, it’s likely that even the Master of Knights position gods have long vanished, a vanished position god cannot guide Henry VI in this era.
In Ethan’s view, Henry VI’s intrusion into the Knight Lord’s relics is unimportant whether due to luck or destiny, those who transmit stories will actively conduct artistic processing on these details.
Ave asked, "How do you plan to do that?"
Her little heart beat violently, although rationally she thought Ethan is spouting nonsense, but... what if he succeeds?
If successful, this will surely become the greatest discovery in history.
Its significance lies not only in humanly creating a saint but also presenting a method that guarantees stepping into the saint’s level!
From the First Epoch until now, no one has ever managed to do so.
Thinking about this, Ave unconsciously became excited.
"Based on this theory, the key to the Oath and Sword of Victory lies in how and under what circumstances it is handed to Sister Bi’an."
Ethan said, "Rather than pinning hopes on elusive fate, why don’t we write a story ourselves?"
Moreover, he already thought about who would write the story—at Fireplace Bay, there is a Tree-man who dreams of becoming a bestselling novelist, named Old Mu, whose recently published ’Heisenberg and the Magic Book’ has already become one of Fireplace Bay’s most popular books.
Everyone’s emotions were stirred, Ethan threw the topic to Lindong, who remained silent, she had the most authority on mysterious issues, "What do you think of this plan, Teacher?"
The mind-wandering Lindong turned her head dumbfoundedly, "Is it time to eat?"
Everyone stared at Lindong with questioning eyes, including Ethan.
Since coming back from Wolf Head Castle, Lindong has been strange, often staring out the window alone, her reaction time seems to have slowed a beat, often unable to keep up with their discussions.
They had to admit Lindong looked adorable in her silly manner, full of fresh experience from the contrast, even same-sex individuals like Rowena were occasionally enchanted by Lindong.
"Haven’t had lunch? Then call me when it’s time to eat."
Lindong seemingly didn’t intend to join their discussion, her gaze again shifted towards the window.
This seminar on Oath and Sword of Victory concluded with Lindong’s inquiry about "what’s for lunch," Ave noticed Lindong again fell into contemplation, secretly signaled Ethan with her eyes—ask your household cat what’s going on lately?
In recent meetings, Lindong hasn’t transformed into a cat, wearing a maid outfit maintaining human form, seeming to have completely become a maid in Ethan’s apartment.
