"Cough, cough!" The person at the front suddenly straightened up his body, patted his clothes and said, "I am from the first Expedition Army of the Rand Kingdom, a Golden Apprentice Knight loyal to the great Queen Rania! Sydney's younger brother."
"Knight?" Lavee knew that it was indeed a profession only nobles had, but the other person's name somehow felt odd.
The others also introduced themselves one by one, and although they all seemed to fit the part, their overall vibe was somewhat off. Were they all truly knights?
He wanted to say that the other person was from a powerful kingdom, but the group before him didn't look very strong at all.
"I am Lavee," he introduced himself, "a warrior, attempting to become a Sword Saint."
"Sword Saint?"
"Yes, I am tracking a Soul Beak Criminal, those giant birds that hover in the sky around us."
"Do you mean the Soul Pecking Bird?" the Undead quickly asked.
