”I am the armor that bears the spirit of an ancient knight. ”I call my name Balluar.

'Balal?　And is there?

Mr. Cutlass's eyes lit up.

'I have heard of it, sir. It is the sacred armor pursued by the legendary knights - said to have been made in the time of the gods.

”Yes!　'I was used by generations of honorable knights, and in time I became conscious of them.'

What's the use of your legendary armor?

Me, Cecil and Rita also got off the carriage.

We face the pervert who lost his horse - or rather, the Black Knight.

We're just adventurers. Mr. Cutlass has stopped wanting to be a knight too. It's not supposed to have anything to do with you at all.

”Mm. 'Yes, I know. You're not knights. I can't smell you now.

What if?

'But I feel the light of pure loyalty from you. It is the guide to a knight's soul. You are worthy of my fight!

「「「「 Chinese light? 」」」」

...... Sorry. I have no idea what you mean.

I think we probably looked very pale.

The black knight thought he didn't explain enough, and after a short pause, he began to speak slowly.

''I was created in the ancient times and have been used by many knights.

The Black Knight said.

'I came to have a will because I came to think a knight's ”loyalty” is beautiful. You've got a heart that is single-mindedly devoted to and adores its master - a heart that can feel the beauty that only people have. But it was a long time ago that there was such a knight...'

The hollow knight tapped his own knee with the tip of his spear.

Boringly.

'I lost my owner in the last battle and was neglected. It was poorly preserved and was treated as junk. But now that it has been used in a certain ritual, it has regained consciousness.

A ritual?

”It was a ritual performed by modern-day knights. ”It was a ritual done by the modern knights, where they would create the ghosts of dead knights out of old armor and have them attack anyone with a knight's exam voucher.

””.................. huh!”

We all looked at Mr. Cutlass at once.

I don't know about that. I've never heard of such a thing: ...... Oh, really?

”My presence here is proof of that.

The black knight disappointedly slumped his shoulders and looked up at the sky.

'What I heard during the ceremony was utterly terrible. The young ones these days have no guts. The examinations in my time were even more severe. There were even more deaths,'' he said.

...... such ...... such ...... such a knight is ...... such a thing?

Mr. Cutlass is looking disappointed, his shoulders slumping.

The black knight is dressed with one hand in the air and one hand wiping away tears. It doesn't look like he's telling a lie.

Plus, there's that whole Iris warning thing.

If it's true about the Black Knight, then it all fits the story.

”I was awakened by the ritual. I am only an ancient relic, but I have a heart that knows beauty. Hence, I desire to fight against those who possess the glorious light of loyalty!'

”...... an ancient relic with a will. ...... You don't think it's a 'divine relic (artifact)' ......?

Artifact?

'It's a magical item made in the most ancient times. If that armor is like that, I can see why the knight's will would take over and start moving. It's also too old to have been ...... neglected.

Cecil is trembling and grabbing my arm.

If this is the case, I should have asked the saint Delilira-san about such things.

I don't have any information on the ”artifact”.

Cecil doesn't seem to know much more than this either. If there was, it would be at .......

I looked at Cutlass-san.

When push comes to shove........there's no choice but to ask for her help.

”Listen to me, Black Knight. You're making a mistake.

I turn to the Black Knight and tell him.

'A misunderstanding?'

Yeah. We're not the ones you should be fighting with. You should be fighting real knights. I'm not messing with the public here!　Find a real knight and join hands with him in a big way!

I can't do that!

Why?

”Any knight in his own right who has pure loyalty is extinct!

What about ..................?

Did you just say ......?　Extinct?

'I realized that when I was called in for the ritual!　After that, I was convinced I had to sneak a visit!　No knight in the kingdom has a decent soul!　People who droning on about old times, people who brag about a sword wound they got by mistake, people who bully noblemen by slipping up on them, they're all of them!

...ah, ah, ah, ......

Oh, Mr. Cutlass, you're in shock.

''So, ...... then, you can qualify for ...... knighthood?''

'I've been told by Ghost that ...... decent people leave in two years.'

Who's left?

'Two years and a month, and the light is dying in your eyes.

...... No, no, no. ......

Mr. Cutlass fell to his knees in disappointment.

'Therefore, I desire to fight against those of pure loyalty like you.

The black knight shouted and thrust his spear into the ground with a thud.

'I, who was used by the old knight, can see the light of loyalty. From that chariot I see three men and one beautiful light. Against such a one I want to fight!

...... three and one?

Cecil and Rita and ...... one is Leggy? Does this guy even feel the presence of Reggie?

If that's the case, then this guy really is a 'cheat armor'.

So ...... the other one is - maybe.

It's a good idea. I've got a life-long belief in the idea of a ”standardized” citizen.

...... eh?

Let alone Mr. Cutlass, who is red up to his ears and looking at the wall.

I mean, both Cecil and Rita are looking at the wall.

I can't believe I'm making everyone look at me like this, but I knew that knight was a pervert.

He just wants a genuine fight.

I don't think he can't win. His combat prowess is not that great. The problem is his ironclad defense.

It completely blocked Cecil's ancient language, the Arrow of Fire, and Rita's holy power is incomprehensible. At that level, it's impossible to use Cecil's 'Arrow of Fallen Strength' to try to run out of magic power.

I defeated the horse, so I can get away with it. But ...

What will you do if I refuse to fight here?

”I will follow you to the end of the earth.

What are you doing, stalking me?

”I don't know, but for the sake of battle, I'll be a stooge too!

...... The knights who summoned him, I'll complain about it later.

'Well, well, well, let's do it!

Perhaps because he had finished speaking, the Black Knight picked up his spear.

It's not that the plan is ...... not. But it requires Cutlass-san's - or more accurately, Fynn's cooperation. I need time.

''You know what, Black Knight?''

”What a rivalry, my rival.

Do we really have to fight here?

”How

Even if we're not ready?

”The knight shall always be in the battlefield, shall he not?

I told you we're not knights.

I was the only one who was able to fight back. There were only three men among the knights who wore the Balluwhal who were so capable of fighting.

There were three of them?

Koe. Ancient Knights, Koei: .......

'But hey, we fought incomplete, and that's causing problems for some of our party. I need you to wait until we get into position.

”...... lame.

Oh, yeah?　You want to fight me halfway through?　If that's the case, then what you want is a streetwise street killer?

The knight gulped at my line and tore his helmet off.

Okay, I got it. I got one.

It's called the soul of a knight. I thought you wanted to play nice. What is it?　You think you can just win?　You don't care how you do it?　Really?　Seriously, ...... wow.

As I say it, I look over at Cecil and the others.

Cecil, Rita and Mr. Cutlass nod their heads. And then...

Wow. I can't believe it. A knight in shining armor would do such a thing.

A ”Paladin” who serves the Goddess will be furious. It's an infestation.

It is absolutely unbelievable, sir!　How dare you take me by surprise and not even apologize!

”My noble knight. ”Poo, giggle, giggle.

Even Reggie joins in and starts provoking them.

I hope he'll be able to get on board.

'Eeeeeeeeeeee!　All right!　All right!　We'll do everything we can to prepare for it, but you're welcome!

Thank you. Thank you.

Wow, that's some pretty good work.

Shut up!

'You're really going to give me time, aren't you?　Do you promise to be a knight?

You are persistent!

Good. I took the pawn.

This will give us time to make a plan.

This knight isn't a puppet.

He's a stalker and a pervert, but he's got a sense of pride and policy. When I said I'd wait for him, I figured he wouldn't take a shot at me, so it's not a no-brainer.

Well.

I really don't want Cecil, Rita, and Mr. Cutlass to fight that guy either. ......

As long as we don't know how much operating time that guy has, we can't leave him alone. I mean, I don't want that stalker-like guy to know my home.

We're going to stop him. I'm going to make sure we get out of here as sure as possible.

Ms. Cutlass.

Yes, yes, sir!

Mr. Cutlass, who had been facing the wall, turned around with a bright red face.

''Can you tell me about 'Divine Instrumentality Aptitude'? And also whether that black knight is really an artifact or not.

Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh...

Cutlass-san nods her head in disbelief.

She must have the skill to manipulate relics of the ancient past in her. ...... I see, that was Fynn's skill, right? Cutlass-san is unrecognizable?

I'm going to have to wait a minute,” he said. I'm afraid that's what Fynn is saying to me. What?　You know what?　You want to step forward?　Even if you say ...... instead. ......

'Fynn?　What?

No, he wants to swap places with me. He wants me to take the breastplate off.

Breastplate?　Why?

'Come on. I am, but I'm not sure what Fynn is thinking.

As he said it, Cutlass-san put his hands behind his back and removed the armor that covered his chest. He untied the straps on his back and removed the silver armor from his chest and then...

Woohoo.

”────.

Her clothes came off.

She wasn't wearing any underwear.

Pure white skin, not a scratch on her. Hollow collarbones.

From there, the rolling hills and cherry blossom-colored...

'What?　Huh?　Why do I have to?　Why are the clothes supposed to come off?

Mr. Cutlass held his chest with a bang, steam pouring out of his head.

If you look closely, you can see that Cutlass-san's shirt is cut at the shoulder and temporarily fastened with a thin thread. That's why it snapped when I took off my armor in a hailstorm. The shirt was split back and forth and fell down to my stomach.

The underwear that should be underneath is nowhere to be seen.

So, Mr. Cutlass's ample bosom was exposed. And who did this...

Fi-fi-fiend!

I knew it.

I knew it. - You did all this just to get yourself out?　So that means ...... fyne, so ...... maybe ......

Suddenly, Mr. Cutlass touched the skirt that covered his lower body.

He stroked it, slapped it, and finally stuck his hand in it - and started shaking and shaking with a bright red face.

''What's the matter, Mr. Cutlass!　What happened!

It has not been there!

What?

”In front of Arujidono ............ this kind of ............ this kind of ...... this kind of ...... ......

Snap.

Mr. Cutlass fell right over, just like that.

It wasn't ............ Oh, that's what it was. You weren't wearing it. Yeah.

”Hmm. I'm finally out, Aluji.

And when he got up, Cutlass-san's eyes turned reddish-purple.

A personality change to Fynn.

''It's an emergency, so I've used emergency means.

...... Couldn't you have done it any other way?　Fynn.

It can't be helped. It's the only way I'd ever get out of here.

Fynn looked at us with his hooves.

Before I know it, Cecil and Rita are there too, blocking Fynn from my view. Yeah. Fynn doesn't like to wear clothes, you know? He looks like a nudist.

”There's no time for this. So, as it turns out. ”A certain someone, the Black Knight, is probably an artifact.

Fynn shook my hand and said.

'It's a magical item that was created in the most ancient times and became self-aware as it was used by knights.

Fynn has the 'Divine Relic Aptitude' skill.

It's a skill that rarely appears in those with royal blood, and it's said to be able to control and handle the most ancient items - artifacts - that were created in the most ancient times.

'All right. Can you use Fynn's skills to disable that thing?

I can do it, give me 10 minutes.

Ten minutes?

If I can keep my hands on him for 10 minutes, I'll be in control.

Fynn said as if it was nothing.

It's impossible. I mean, it's too dangerous.

Even Rita couldn't completely suppress that guy.

''My 'Divine Relic Aptitude' is to pour magic power into artifacts and magical items to control them. It takes a certain amount of time.

But that doesn't matter. Let me take responsibility for it.

Fynn folded his hands in prayer and lowered his eyes.

He bowed to me, Cecil, Rita, and Reggie, who was in his magic sword state, and murmured, ”This is an imitation of Cutlass and my obsession with the knights.

This is the result of Cutlass and our obsession with knights. Please let me use this life to protect you and yourselves. Please let me use my life to protect you and yours. My dearest, Arujide-sama: ......

In a voice that had no trace of hesitation - Fynn declared that.
