On the 20th day of January, three days after the baron's birthday celebration, House Silversword welcomed another Elite Knight under their banner.
"Congratulations on your advancement, Sir Arthur." Alaric was genuinely happy for this man.
"It's all thanks to you, my lord. If it weren't for you, I might be stuck as a peak Knight for a decade more." Arthur muttered emotionally.
He was glad that he bent his knee to Alaric that day. It was the best decision he had made in his life.
Arthur no longer looked like an old man. He looked as if he had returned to his forties. This was one of the perks of being an Elite Knight.
Alaric tapped his shoulder. "Great timing, Sir Arthur."
"The newbies will be sent to the Evergreen Forest to eliminate the rampaging monsters that are harassing the travelers and the townspeople."
