Chapter 78: Duel

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Sir Kang De, please get in the carriage. I have something to discuss with you.”

The princess shouted from the carriage.

Kang De ignored her.

He looked at Knight Glenn. “What are you laughing at?”

Glenn looked disdainful as he replied, “I…”

Kang De interrupted indifferently, “Are you mocking me? Are you insulting me?”

The knight was stunned.

‘Who mocked you?’

Before he could speak, he heard Kang De say, “Let’s duel.”

This topic changed too quickly, and Knight Glenn was even more stunned. Kang De’s voice was not soft, and at least the surrounding knights heard it clearly. They could not help but stir.

Kang De said calmly, “What’s the custom of your duel? White gloves? The custom in our hometown is to sign a life-and-death agreement. There’s no limit to the methods. The winner has to pull out the internal organs of the loser and place them on the altar to offer to the gods. Let’s do this and find a notary. Let’s begin.”

Glenn’s expression changed slightly, and Hong San widened his eyes. A knight quietly retreated and quickly arrived at Viscount Samuel’s carriage. He whispered something to the Viscount beside the carriage.

The Viscount had a noble status and treated Tina as his first priority. He first sent the princess to the car and was about to pay attention to Kang De. When he heard the knight’s report, his expression suddenly changed and he walked over quickly.

“Please wait!”

He shouted loudly. After approaching, he bowed slightly to Kang De, “Lord Kang De, may I ask what happened?”

Kang De pointed at Knight Glenn. “He insulted me.”

Glenn’s eyes widened. “Lord! I didn’t!”

Kang De said indifferently, “You mean that I’m lying? As my first time being in the Glory Sand Viscounty, I have no grudge against you. Will I take the risk of offending the Goode family and abandoning my honor to lie and slander you?”

These words were very reasonable and irrefutable.

The knight had never seen such thick skin. He was so angry that his face flushed red as he roared, “I didn’t!”

Kang De said indifferently, “Then let’s fight. The loser is the liar.”

Knight Glenn was about to say “Okay”, but he saw the Viscount’s sharp gaze.

As soon as he welcomed Princess Tina, the knight under him started a duel with the princess’s esteemed guest. Moreover, it was obvious that they would not rest until one died. No matter how nonchalant Viscount Samuel was, he would not allow this to happen.

He bowed to Kang De and said, “I’m extremely sorry. This is my mistake. Please understand.”

Knight Glenn gritted his teeth and said, “Lord! I didn’t…”

Kang De’s gaze was like lightning as he stared at him, “When the ship docked, you led the patrol and looked up at me with disdain. Let me ask you, where did your disdain come from? Using the dignity of a knight as a bet to swear to your god, do you dare to say that you didn’t do this?”

Glenn was even angrier.

He was about to speak when he heard Samuel say, “Knight Glenn, apologize to Sir Kang De.”

Knight Glenn revealed a resentful expression. He was about to protest and explain when he saw his Viscount’s gaze. At first, he was furious, but now, he lowered his head like a defeated rooster.

He gritted his teeth and said, “I’m sorry, Lord Kang De. I was rude.”

“I accept your apology.” Kang De turned around. “Now, apologize to him.”

Hong San revealed a confused expression.

Then, he jolted and hurriedly said, “Master Kang De, I…”

Kang De turned to look at him and said coldly, “Do you have the right to speak here?”

Perhaps shocked by this cold gaze, Hong San shut his mouth. Then, Kang De turned around and said to the knight, “Didn’t you hear me? Apologize to him.”

Veins popped out on Glenn’s forehead, and he looked like he was already on the verge of acting up.

To people like them, dignity and face were more important than their lives… Moreover, it was in front of a group of colleagues and soldiers, not to mention in front of the woman they loved.

He gritted his teeth and said, “Why? Why should I apologize to him?”

Kang De said, “Because you smiled when he knelt down to be a stepping stone.”

Glenn was a little angry. He looked straight at Kang De and said coldly, “Why can’t I laugh? He’s so lowly and shameful. Can’t I laugh at such a shameless thing?”

“You can’t laugh.”

Kang De said, “His master is Viscount Samuel. He came to serve me on his master’s orders. Because he was worried that I would not be used to your horse, he did not hesitate to use his body as a stepping stone and lie in the dirty dust, only wanting me to be more stable and safe. He is so loyal. In order to carry out his master’s orders 100%, he even abandoned his dignity and did not avoid the filth. You mocked his actions greatly. Are you questioning his loyalty to the Viscount, or do you think this loyalty is actually not worth mentioning?”

The natives of the other world were speechless.

After all, their knowledge was limited and their culture was low. How could they be the match of the Earthlings who quarreled with keyboard warriors and trolls all day in the Internet era? With Kang De’s eloquence, it was more than enough to deal with them.

It could immediately force them into a blind spot.

“This is one of the reasons.”

It was not over.

Kang De said, “Secondly, Viscount Samuel appointed Hong San to me as a temporary servant and guide. In other words, during this period, I’m his temporary master. He served me diligently, but he was mocked and ridiculed for no reason. You’re not only humiliating him, but also me. Do you understand?”

He stretched out his hand and pointed at the knight’s armor. He said calmly, “You’re a knight of the Goode family. Your words and actions not only represent you personally but also the honor of the entire family. Let me ask you, won’t your actions bring shame to the Goode family?”

“On account of Viscount Samuel, I’m saying these words to you today because there’s a saying in my hometown that an ignorant person made a mistake and killed him without guidance. It’s very unkind. Since you’re insensible, I’ll teach you what etiquette and logic are, but it ends here.”

He placed his hands behind his back and looked at the other knights present, “Not only did you laugh, but your companion also laughed. Now, you have two choices. First, apologize to Hong San on behalf of your companion and yourself. This matter ends here. Otherwise, I won’t say another word to you. I’ll first teach these principles to your companions and let them understand their mistakes. After this…”

He said indifferently, “Let’s fight. I’ve already explained the principle to you. I’ve already done everything I should. Even if I kill you, the gods won’t blame me.”

The knights of the Viscount had never seen such a scene.

There were so many reasons that no one could refute, so they still had to listen.

Knight Glenn even felt the commotion behind him.

His companions were all looking at him. That was definitely the case.

They were also afraid.

They were afraid that they would be reprimanded by an Easterner like a child in public and in front of the Viscount’s family. Moreover, he had to listen obediently—because the Viscount and the Goethe people were beside him.

—D*mn it, d*mn it.

The most uncomfortable thing was that he heard Viscount Samuel’s words.

“You’re indeed a noble gentleman from the East.” The Viscount sighed. “The Goode family’s style is not strict so their etiquette is lacking. I’ve really made a fool of myself as the lord of a small place in the countryside.”

These words had already surpassed orders and scoldings. Knight Glenn jolted and immediately bowed to Hong San, “Hong San, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have mocked you.”

Hong San waved his hand uneasily. “No, no, no. You’re really flattering me. I…”

“Hong San,” Kang De said, “From now on, you have to straighten your back and knees. Otherwise, scram back to your Viscount’s side and serve him. Don’t disturb me.”

Hong San was stunned and immediately said, “Yes!”

However, how could he change so easily?

Kang De no longer looked at him or Knight Glenn, who was clenching his fists and gritting his teeth. He nodded at Viscount Samuel. “I’m really sorry to have troubled you.”

Viscount Samuel smiled politely as if he did not take what had happened to heart.

He said, “No, we didn’t treat you well.”

Kang De glanced at Tina in the distance. The princess had wanted to rush over earlier, but she was stopped by the knight. At this moment, she was looking over worriedly.

He said, “Then I’ll excuse myself. Princess Tina wants to see me.”

Viscount Samuel smiled and said, “Please go ahead.”

Kang De did not move immediately. Instead, he arrived in front of the horse. It was the horse that Knight Glenn had brought over. Even an outsider like Kang De, who had only ridden a few times, could tell that this horse had a very fierce personality and knew how to bully others. If he was a newbie riding it, he would definitely make a fool of himself or even fall.

Knight Glenn clearly had ill intentions.

“Unfortunately, I haven’t ridden in a long time.”

He reached out and grabbed the horse’s mouth, rubbing it roughly a few times.

Horses’ lips were very soft and felt very comfortable to the touch. However, usually speaking, no horse was willing to have its mouth and nose touched by others because this part of them was very sensitive and would be very uncomfortable. Therefore, when people casually touched this place, they would be bitten and it would be very painful. It was basically a taboo to raise horses.

Not to mention a violent warhorse.

However, when this horse that was famous for its strong personality in the Glory Sand Stable was grabbed by its mouth, not only did it not open its mouth to bite, it did not struggle. It did not even dare to move and its body actually trembled slightly.

“This horse is not bad.”

Kang De said indifferently, “Unfortunately, it’s a little timid.”

As for what was not bad—he naturally did not know. He was only pretending.

Then, he walked towards Tina’s carriage.

Hong San followed obediently, his back subconsciously bowed.

The knights looked at the horse.

Iron Halberd… was timid?

Viscount Samuel narrowed his eyes and looked at Kang De’s back.

Hong San patted his horse’s fart softly, “Master, you still have a way to make these barbarians not dare to fart.”

Kang De said coldly, “I’m just in a bad mood. I’m throwing a tantrum and venting my inexplicable anger for myself. You are more capable of letting yourself make a living here.”
