The twelve knights of the table.
Each of them were seated the table.
Looking at the trance, Morded, the high ranking knight above all of them walked in. Her title, known as The Rebellious knight, was considered to be the strongest knight in Calot.
The room was spacious, with chandeliers hanging on the ceiling, making the eting room look right for the setting they had planned.
Mordred settled on her chair, her blade placed on the table before she looked at Lancelot, "So? What's with the sudd eting?" She asked.
"You actually ca? I was afraid you were going to ignore the calling like you always do." Replied Lancelot, the second ranking knight; title, The Knight of the Lake.
"Shocker, Lady Mordred decided to attd the knight's eting, perhaps the world is ding."
Lady Gw spoke, her long gold hair falling behind her, she was The Sun Knightness.
"Hey, Do you really have to commt on every little thing?" Da Persephone chid in, her hair purple hair dashing, radiant with beauty; title, The pure Knightness.
"Yeah well, you know how she is, all beauty no brain as they say." Lady Glaladriel laughed, brown short hair, title, The Perfect Knightness.
"Uhn? Wanna say that again?!" Gw frowned.
"Sigh! If you all want to banter, might as well let us leave." Da Belinda spoke up, The Loyal Knightness.
Sir Tristan, The lancholic Knight.
Lady Brianna, The Pious Knightness
Lady Kealin, The Seschal Knightness.
Lady Agatha, The Envious Knightness.
Lady Gareth, The Gtle Knightness.
And lady, Lady Liora, The Fierce Knightness, all nodded in unison.
"Good, th let begin… The reason as to why I called this eting is quite simple, we may have a threat under our very nose." Lancelot spoke, his words settling inside their ears as he continued.
"The boy with the na Traveler, Calot's new Pri minister."
Mordred's eyes snapped op a bit.
"Oh yeahh, the black hair boy that stays in the royal palace. I heard about him being the Pri minister, what about it?" Gw spoke.
"Don't you find it strange that he got a post so high in power in less than two months?" Lancelot looked at her.
"Now that you mtion it, Her highness has be giving him a lot of special treatmt since his arrival." Agatha added, "Tsk! Who is he anyway?".
"We don't know. I don't think her highness really ev knows either. We simply found him during our battle with the orc lords." Tristan answered.
"I heard he was from a distant family, Her Highness is not so reckless to pick up a ransom person and bring them to the royal house." Belinda spoke up, looking at everyone.
"At the d of the day, it happed. This man is currtly living under our noses, with everything playing just as he wants it to be. If we are not careful, he might bring Calot to the g." Lancelot said with a serious tone
"Didn't he kill a Demigod threating to bring down the capital a few days ago?" Morded chid in with a nonchalant deanor.
They all looked at her, surprised that she ev said a word.
"Y.. yeah he did." Lancelot replied.
"And correct if I'm wrong, but didn't he also solve the corrupted water problem?" She asked yet another question.
"H..he did. But that wasn't-"
"And where were you all wh those problems occurred?" Mordred glared at them.
"I was carrying on a mission." Gareth responded.
"Sa." Brianna uttered too.
"I wasn't quickly inford." Said Kaelin.
"You all had missions?" Gw asked, looking a perplexed.
"So you all were utterly useless wh the problem arised, and wh soone cos in to fix your incompetce, you plan a small picnic date to talk about how he's supposed to be so kind of threat to the very kingdom you failed to protect? Pathetic." Mordred uttered with disgust.
The look of anger, confusion and realization played on everyone's face.
"Surely you've also noticed it! Her highness hasn't be the sa ever since he arrived, how are you defding that man right-"
A simple glare from Mordred caused Lancelot to halt his words, as the aura a Mordred's body began to increase.
"Uhnnnnn?!" Morded grabbed her blade and balanced it on her shoulder, before standing up and standing in front of Lancelot, looking him dead in the eye.
Lancelot, clearly terrified, slowly reached for the halt of his blade that was a his waist, the rest of the knights doing the sa.
"Don't ever place and that moron in the sa stce, ever. If you all want to act like princesses over soone doing what you clearly can't accomplish, th be my guest, but do not drag into your foolish motives."
As soon as those words left her mouth, she began to walk away, her voice echoing -
"And put those weapons away, you're only disgracing yourselves".
She left.
There was a collective sigh amongst them, as Lancelot settled on his chair.
'Mordred of all people took the need to step up for him? Just…what kind of evil mastermind are you… Traveler?".
….
"355, 356, 357, 358, 359…."
Ha Joon, was in the middle of his daily workouts. He was busy doing his sit-ups, his eyes glowing red with every pull he did.
[You have gained strgth.]
[You have gained vitality.]
The notifications kept popping up.
Finally, he was done, and Ha Joon was seated on the edge of his bed, a cup of water in his hand, while he grabbed his magic smartphone with his other.
[Strgth: 890
Vitality: 0.]
'Hm, my stats hav't increased all that much since my battle with the Demigod.'
[The higher the stats number, the more work is needed to increase them.]
'Ahh gee, thanks alot for making this so much easier.'
[You're welco.]
Ha Joon sighed.
Suddly, he heard a knock on the door.
Bang! Bang!
Imdiately, his face lit up.
"It's the maid!!!" He blurted out loud, racing towards the door.
He reached for the knob and oped it, only to et a chubby boy standing outside and looking up at him.
Ha Joon's smile faded.
