Devin led the war horse and the beauty, and walked towards the direction of the cathedral.

In the huge Earl's Mansion, hundreds of guards could only watch from behind, and no one dared to stop them.

The single sword broke into the Earl's Mansion, and under the Count's full force, he forcibly took away his sweetheart. This scene was reflected in the hearts of many people and became a profound memory that will never be forgotten for life.

Perhaps in a few years, this will become a legend, spread everywhere for the minstrels, and praise this romantic love that makes people yearn for.

However, these things had nothing to do with Devin. As soon as he walked out of everyone's sight, he immediately took off his battle armor, pressed his hand on his chest, and sucked the air conditioner from his mouth.

The Count's combat combo was too powerful, and he was still injured. He had been holding it back just now, and was trying to bluff people with all his might, but now there is no need.

‘Hiss~’ This hurts so much.

Refina asked anxiously: "Derwin, what's going on? Are you injured?"

"Fortunately, it's not serious." If you want to recover from this injury, it's probably only one day, and it's not serious.

Today's battle is worth it. A fifth-level elemental warrior took action without reservation. From beginning to end, he was wandering between life and death, and his spirit was condensed like never before.

This was a rare combat experience, which benefited Dewen a lot. He felt that he had taken another step closer to breaking through the bottleneck of level 5.

Seeing that he was walking freely and his face was normal, Refina felt relieved.

She had a deep understanding of Devin's strong body. Outside Brida City, he suffered much more injuries than this, and it would have been better in one night.

The two walked for a while, and the girl on the horse's back suddenly whispered: "Den, you have injuries on your body. Don't lead the horse. Come up too. There is still a long way to go to the cathedral here."

Devin looked back and saw her lowered her head, her face flushed, and her snow-white and slender neck turned pink, looking ashamed.

He felt sweet in his heart, and turned his back on the horse, hugged the beauty's slender waist with one hand, and pulled the reins with the other hand, and walked slowly towards the cathedral.

Finally, Refina recovered from her shyness and asked again: "I heard you just now that you were going to the King of the Capital to deal with the Queen, what's going on?"

"It is a mission of the church, but there is not much danger." Devin said casually without thinking that she was worried.

"How could it be? The queen is a fifth-level mage!"

Devin explained easily: "I am not the main combat force. The one who led the Knight Edwin, the Demon-killer, you should know it?"

The Demon Knight is the upgraded title of Demon Hunter. If you want to be awarded, you must condense the heart of the element and advance to the fifth level. Edwin is the only Demon Knight in the Storm Kingdom.

His weapon is a knight's gun called "Silver Lightning", and his battle armor is called "Soul Purification". Like Devin, he also has a halo of thorns.

It is said that he is not very old, about thirty years old, and has great potential for promotion. Some people even call him the "Little Glory Hand" of the Storm Kingdom, so this person is still quite famous.

Of course, Refina had heard of it, and she immediately felt relieved. As long as she was not rushing to the forefront, she would be able to protect herself with the power of Devin.

Soon after, the two arrived at the cathedral and found Archbishop Latzinger and explained to him what Refina thought.

The Archbishop became more and more surprised. After hearing this, he couldn't help but exclaim, a little disbelief: "Child, you must understand that becoming a warrior of God, you live like a monk. It's completely different from your previous life. Can you adapt?"

The ascetic monks are very sacred and noble, but there are not many who can actually do it, and can persist and achieve something.

Unlike the Glorious Knight of Devin, there are many precepts that formal church knights have to obey.

The knights are the force guarantees that the church can gain in the secular world. Power cannot be false at all, so they obey the precepts very strictly and are not as relaxed as priests.

In his opinion, this little girl seemed to be having a tantrum with the count. When she got angry, she would definitely regret it. With the count's favor for her daughter, she would definitely forgive her. This matter might become a farce.

It is no wonder that La Tingge feels strange when he gives up his superior life and is willing to practice hard.

"I can!" Refina replied firmly.

She knew the life of the Demon Hunter very well and did not think it was too difficult. The tranquility of the soul was what she yearned for.

The Archbishop pondered for a while, glanced at Dewen on the side, and agreed after weighing the pros and cons.

He was still a little worried about Dewen because the young man was too ambitious and wild and unruly, and it was difficult to tame. This was a common problem among the descendants of the dragon clan.

He also knew the relationship between Devin and Refina. There was such a female knight who could tie his heart, so the Archbishop certainly couldn't ask for it.

His face returned to peace and said kindly: "Child, I accept you as a formal warrior of God."

Because Refina was originally named a Demon Hunter, she has just entered the church naturally and even the ceremony does not need to be held.

As soon as the Archbishop admitted, Refina made her request: "Sir, I hope I can do asceticism now."

Asceticism is a training course for the knights of the church. It is very cruel and not necessary. But it is the most powerful means to enhance strength.

To practice hard is first of all suffering.

As soon as you enter the ascetic room, the daily food is coarse bread and water, without any meat and fish, without any material enjoyment, and only meets the basic needs of the body.

Then there is practice, which lasts for a year. Within this year, you cannot walk out of the practice room at all.

During this period, no one sent food or other daily necessities. Everything was prepared in advance in the storage magic tool, which was truly isolated from the world.

The knight in the ascetic room will experience the most terrible loneliness in the world. If he can survive a year without mental disorders and madness, he will succeed in walking out of the ascetic room and will definitely become a real strong man and embark on the peak.

The Archbishop was shocked, and he didn't expect Refina to make this request.

He looked at Refina's eyes, which were shining brightly, and were full of determination. He asked, "What? Aren't you going to the capital with Devin?"

Refina shook her head: "No, my strength is too weak. I can't drag him down."

She saw Devin's power today, and he was getting stronger and stronger, and was improving rapidly.

When I first met him, he was a third-level warrior. He was not as strong as her, but now he can fight against his father.

The gap between them was widening rapidly, and this was not what Refina wanted to see.

She must make rapid progress in order to go alongside Devin, instead of being slowly pulled away from her distance. In the end, she lived in a different world and became alienated from her relationship.

The bishop looked at Devin and asked, "What do you think?"

Ascetic practice is not a joke. Once it is carried out, it cannot be stopped easily. If you can't get over it, it will cause problems. Going crazy is common.

"I respect the decision of the Knight Refina." Devin saw the unshakable determination in Refina's eyes. From her eyes, he saw his own reflection, so he could not find a reason to object.

He likes such a strong and independent woman.

The bishop nodded, looked at Refina, and said gently: "Okay, from now on, you should start practicing hard!"

He shook the bell, and soon a monk in black from the church appeared. After listening to the orders of the archbishop, he was also a little surprised, but he still took Refina to the ascetic silence room behind the church.

Before leaving, Refina glanced at Devin for the last time, then turned her head resolutely and strode away.

The deep affection contained in this glance made Dewen's heart jump violently, and someone carved an indelible mark on his heart.

When Refina's figure disappeared, the archbishop had been holding a shelf. He smiled and said to Devin: "You are blessed to meet such a woman."

Devin didn't say anything, but just smiled slightly, slowly calming down the throbbing in his heart.

After a while of silence, the Archbishop said, "How about it? Are you satisfied with the armor on your body?"

He had already received the news and learned what Devin did in the Earl's Mansion.

After getting the armor, this man was able to compete with Count Phyllis, known as the "Phantom Swordsman", and finally defeated him, which was far beyond the Archbishop's expectations.

La Tingge only has one feeling. This time he has met a real genius. This young man will definitely enter the Holy Land and become famous in the future.

Devin nodded: "It's very satisfying, it's indeed a good thing."

The Archbishop laughed and said with a slight smugness: "There are more battle armors in the church than this. In the Holy See of the Kingdom of Glory, the battle armor worn by the Paladin is a real rare treasure."

He looked at Devin, his eyes full of deep meaning: "If you can abandon the world like Refina, and with your talent, one day you will become the 'glorious hand' of the church and become the supreme guardian of the continent."

Dewen was not interested in asceticism. He sighed and said with a sigh: "My family needs me to revive."

The Archbishop waved his hand: "This is not difficult. If you get married and have children, just leave this matter to your son. Moreover, if you become a paladin, your family will naturally benefit. These two are not contradictory."

The Archbishop is endless and he actually tries to formally organize him.

Not only will the formal knight be bound by the precepts, but when he becomes strong in the future, once he finds that his halo of thorns is wrong, the one who believes in the Lord of Glory, that is the biggest scandal in the church.

Devin was definitely ten times more severe than he was just a Knight of Glory.

He used his trump card, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "But I like women. The more numerous, the better. I can't control myself. I am afraid that I will embarrass the church in the future and will definitely be punished."

This is also a common problem for male dragon descendants. As the ambition expands, it is to constantly conquer the opposite sex.

The Archbishop was speechless, which was in conflict with the church's precepts.

One or two women can be compatible. For example, the Archbishop can turn a blind eye to the matter between Refina and Devin and pretend that he has not seen it.

But for a dragon descendant, ten hundred or even a thousand are possible, which is too much. The church absolutely cannot tolerate a formal knight's reputation of being a romantic knight.

The Archbishop smiled bitterly and said, "I won't say anything, you go to the capital." After a pause, he solemnly instructed: "After going to the capital, communicate more with Knight Edwin, and beware of Master Roman."

Dewen sighed and bowed, quickly left the cathedral, rode on a horse and left, like running away. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
