Chapter 12: Youre very ballsy huh?
Well said. A calm and heavy voice sounded out. However one couldnt detect any trace of praise within the solitary yet orderly applause.
Ji Bai turned his head and shifted his gaze to another area. It was unknown when the person had appeared but there was a middle-aged man standing he was casually dressed in linen clothes.
It was a familiar voice and a face he hadnt seen in a long time.
Teacher Manda! Y-Youre here! The short-haired knight as well as the other knight who was still conscious were relieved as they had found their backer so suddenly. Their white and bloodless complexion immediately filled with excitement they didnt have the slightest degree of fear as they moved past the Ultraman ahead of them. They stumbled and crawled their way to a place beside the middle-aged man.
They clearly knew in their hearts that as long as they were under this mans nose they would absolutely not suffer any hardship. This teacher of theirs would never watch the students under his wing get beat up by an outsider.
Indeed Ji Bai hadnt shown any interest to obstruct the two knights that had fled past him. He was sizing up the calm middle-aged man dressed in simple clothing. Looking through the small holes in the seams of his lightbulb eyes a sudden trace of realization hit him as a sorrowful nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
Long time no see Manda.
This middle-aged man named Manda in front of Ji Bais eyes is his student. Or to be exact now his ex-student. The specific time he had entered the Chivalric Order of Radiant Knights was roughly before Ji Bai had gained success and recognition. Back then he was just a decrepit uncle muddled with hatred having lost both his wife and children to war.
Manda also called the Holy Flame Knight. This nickname was due to his ability to manifest a pressurized flame that could be applied to his sword which was used to dish out an increasingly significant amount of damage to demons. As the flame was golden in color he was given the knighthood title of Holy Flame.
With all things considered he joined Ji Bais followers considerably late. Even though the age gap between Ji Bai and him was extremely big it didnt obstruct their communication in the least. As of today the legacy of Manda the knight had etched its mark throughout the Sacred Martial Society. Ji Bai was the one that had witnessed his growth and transformation in every bit of the way.
Even though he had met an acquaintance Ji Bai wasnt afraid that his identity would be exposed. After all his body was currently inside the costume and there was a big difference between his present voice and the usual. As long as Ji Bai was cautious in his movements he was certain he wouldnt get found out.
Teacher Manda! You you have to seek justice for us! We were just carrying out our usual official duties! And this suspicious guy suddenly jumped out of nowhere and obstructed us. Not only did he verbally insult us he even injured two of our companions! T-Take a look
While the short-haired knights combat and overall capabilities fell short from the norm his acting and bootlicking skills were absolutely flawless. This was evident from the speed where his expression fluctuated as well as the sniveling tears on his face. He resembled a person that had nursed a long-standing grudge and made people feel as if he had gone through a huge deal of injustice. This evaluation excluded his speech; if you included it then he wonderfully and meticulously warped it to mask up a portion of the truth. The whole act was skillfully executed that it was unlikely that this was his first rodeo.
Tsk tsk tsk. The Oscar Academy award owes you a statuette brother. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
With such perfect acting skills Ji Bai couldnt understand why he became a knight. Wouldnt a glamorous actor be a better choice if he wished to angle for fame?
I already know. All of you step down for now. Manda nodded his head. He shifted his eyes towards the shop owner that had an absent look on his face then towards the pig-tailed knight then onto Cullen that had fainted in a corner. Once this was done he gradually laid his eyes on the Ultraman who was arrogantly standing outside of the restaurant.
I think you owe me an explanation youngster. Manda narrowed his grey eyes. His posture was like a hissing cobra; it was like he was accumulating power and waiting for an opportune time to strike people dared not to meet his eyes.
Oh? An explanation? Ji Bai who was now carrying the longsword over his shoulder was stupefied. Ol Uncle havent you been peeping like a voyeur and watching the play ever since the conflict began? Do you really not have a f*king clue how the whole incident happened?
Manda narrowed his pupils. In an instant the wariness and astonishment in his eyes intensified.
This person has exceptional observation skills. I mustnt underestimate him.
Impudent! Do you not know who this guy is? He is one of the valiant generals under the Radiant Knight the Holy Flame Knight! Youd better watch your words! Before Manda could speak the short-haired knight began to growl arrogantly. This caused Ji Bai to unconsciously recall an adage: a dogs menace is based on its masters status.
Did I say its your turn to speak? Do you believe I wont make you eat poop right here and now if you continue to blabber? The corner of Ji Bais mouth drew back as it formed a smile he raised the sword in his hand.
You The face of the short-haired knight turned red from embarrassment but no longer dared to utter another word.
Its just as you described youngster. The way they have handled this matter is indeed inappropriate. When we return I will have them memorize the entire knight creed by heart within three days. Manda said unhurriedly while keeping a close watch on Ji Bais figure.
Ol Manda He truly hasnt changed a bit and is still protective of his students. Before I even managed to get a word in he had already made the first move and resolved the situation by giving his knights lenient sentences.
Ji Bai smiled helplessly. The assessment he had of Manda was that he was an upright man and yet was still extremely susceptible to acting on impulse. That also meant that he was of limited use in certain special missions It doesnt matter now anyway. After all he wasnt the Radiant Knight anymore. Why must he meddle and bother about these things? Ji Bai would only help them out if he happened to come across them in trouble. He wasnt planning to stick his nose into the internal affairs of the chivalric order any more. fre(e)novelkiss
Just when Ji Bai turned around to leave after throwing the sword away a voice behind him called him out.
Youngster I think we should go back to the main topic. Like I have said so earlier this esteemed humble self of mine is the one in charge of rewarding and punishing the people within the chivalric order. However isnt it pretty inexplicable to just silently leave after you injured two of my probation knights?
Hm? What are you trying to say? Does this mean youre going to pick up on where they left off? Ji Bai put on a cold smile and turned around once more. He then began to size his ex-student up.
Thats an overstatement. This esteemed humble self wants nothing but to seek justice for his students thats all. Manda coldly said his tone was neither arrogant nor humble.
Good good! Very good Ol Manda. Its just been a year since we last met and you think youve already learned everything huh? Is your former teacher nothing in your eyes now?
