The five knight commanders rejected the idea in perfect unison, leaving Velen momentarily frozen in place.
Are these guys… addicted to getting beaten up?
Arthur, black eyes still swollen, stepped forward eagerly. His voice held an intensity Velen had never heard before.
"Your Highness, please—please let that little girl… no, that honorable lady, come and beat us up again!"
What the hell?
Velen stared at Arthur, stunned. He turned to the other four commanders and found similar looks of anticipation on all their faces.
"You all… are into this now?" Justin couldn't help but ask.
"You know nothing!" roared the Thunder Knight Commander, flinging out his arms dramatically.
"Every punch from that great lady was imbued with the power of a higher realm!"
"After a few hits, I actually felt my strength—stuck for fifty years—start to loosen!"
