Crown of Chaos

Chapter 35, The Oath of the Paladin

As always, the power of Slaanesh in Aaron still wanted him to stir up trouble in this environment.

Because for chaos, conflict and dispute are the source of power, and uncertainty and randomness are the essence of chaos.

If Aaron always wants to follow the rules, he should be a true believer in the belief of some dried bacon who likes to do witchcraft on a golden toilet, not a son of chaos.

However, Aaron still retains a certain degree of lawful nature and good nature.

This is related to his character in his previous life and his experiences in this life. That is, although Salian's misfortune, the misfortune of his time travel and the misfortune of awakening are all superimposed on him, he is not abandoned by the world like some people. Betrayed by everyone.

He also has family. Although his aunt and uncle may not play a role in his big plans, they also provide him with the warmth of family.

He also had the social connections left by his father. Lucian, Ian, Duke Kayneth and other friends who had certain personal relationships with the family saw that he had shown talent, and they were all willing to give him some help, including the regent and the royal family. 800 gold lion coins per year.

He also had Miss Priest, Lady Silver Star, and Our Lady of Silver, Suellen, who rescued him, helped him, and responded to him when he needed help most.

He was not the one who was determined to kill all chaotic creatures and eliminate all chaos corruption. However, he found out in the book that he was actually the Eternal Chosen God, and was immediately declared a heretic. Then he cried and went to the capital cathedral to seek help from his god. As a result, The god he most admired did not care about him at all, and the Archbishop himself came out and announced, "Well, it's just as the prophecy said, you took the initiative to send the heretic to his door to die."

Am I right? A brother who was forced to the top of the Chaos Wastes?

Here, in the heart, it is very warm, and there is a warm force protecting Aaron's heart.

So Aaron has the ability to fight against the negative effects of Chaos Power. He knows very well that he must control his emotions and control his power. Chaos Power is very powerful but it is also a corrupt and evil force. They will follow Aaron grows up together. The stronger Aaron is, the stronger they become. Aaron needs their power and must constantly fight against them until he can become a god with the "Chaos" priesthood and completely absorb the four major powers.

Aaron resisted and did not stir up trouble. He simply stretched out his hand to express that he would do it.

The action of Lord Viscount immediately attracted the attention of all the recruits.

Being a little ahead is enviable, being a little ahead is enviable, but if some people are so far ahead that they can't even see the rear taillights, that's just admiration.

It was easy for Aaron to win the favor of others. He was handsome and approachable, his handsome face was full of charm, and his eyes would make people fall in love after looking at them for too long. Most of the recruits lacked hostility towards him.

"I know this is not difficult for you, recruit." Sure enough, the knight instructor turned his attention to him. Simone thought for a while and motioned for everyone to continue. He said to Aaron: "You are different from them. , you are a warlock, magic is naturally flowing in your blood, and you at least know how to follow your feelings."

"But that's not enough, Aaron Salian. You must understand that your strength is needed to fight for the country, to fight against evil and injustice. The purpose of your training is to become a qualified knight, not to use your strength. Come to deal with your knight brothers, I warn you that any private competition is strictly prohibited during this period."

"Yes." This was the side effect of making trouble that day, and Aaron understood.

"Norrington Wilson!" the knight instructor shouted to the side: "There is a transfer student here who wants to see your strength, so you guys have a competition, and I will take a good look at how many deep-rooted bad habits you have!"

"Yes!" A recruit who was sitting and resting next to him stood up.

Aaron moved his eyes to this new recruit at the same time.

This guy's name is Norrington Wilson. He comes from Arabelle and is the son of a knight noble. All thirteen members of his family died in the Battle of Arabelle and were killed by the hobgoblins under the command of the orc Great Khan Turgeon. .

From the beginning to the end, hatred hung over this guy. He was taciturn and trained like crazy.

He is a paladin, a paladin who has just taken a vow of vengeance.

The guy who "killed the owlbear" in Simone's mouth refers to him. He relied on the "naming of enemies" attached to the vow of revenge and the perfect Holy Slash with one strike to chop into pieces an owlbear that was causing trouble to the village. Two paragraphs.

After a paladin enters the apprenticeship level for a period of time, as his martial arts gradually improves and his faith becomes firmer, they will all make an oath.

The three most common oaths are the oath of devotion, the oath of ancient sages, and the oath of revenge.

The oath of dedication represents that the paladin has dedicated everything to justice, virtue, and order in the multiverse. They symbolize honesty, bravery, mercy, responsibility, and honor. These people are called white knights, often using the word Decorate yourself with angel wings.

The Oath of the Ancient Sages means that the paladin regards guarding the light against darkness as the most important responsibility in life. They care more about justice than fairness, more about protection than order, and more about redemption than punishment. These people are called The Green Knight often decorates himself with leaves, antlers, flowers, etc.

The Oath of Vengeance represents the solemn commitment of the paladin to punish those serious crimes. For them, punishing evil, promoting justice, and bringing evil existences in the world to justice is the purpose of their lives. Based on this, they They are willing to sacrifice their purity and let their hands be stained with blood. These people are called black knights.

Norrington Wilson is such a black knight. His hatred for the orcs surpasses everything else in his life. He vowed to kill all the orcs in Arabelle to soothe the souls of his family.

In addition to these three most typical paladin oaths, Aaron also vaguely remembers several other paladin oaths:

For example, the Oath of Conquest is a vow to conquer a certain area to "return to evil", so violent conquest, severe punishments, and even ruthless dictatorship are considered allowed - if the paladin deems it necessary.

The oath of honor is a vow to reach the pinnacle of a certain path or a certain ability.

The Oath of the Crown is an oath to devote one's life to a civilization, a country, or a nation.

In addition, there is a very special oath called the Oath of Love. These paladins are the paladins of the fire-haired lady Suni (also known as Suna). These paladins are all from the chaotic good camp. They All their codes of conduct are mainly to protect love, praise love, and promote love. They don't care about order, justice, or punishment, as long as it is touching love, they will support and help without any thought.

Yes, paladins do not necessarily have to be in the lawful good camp. Each camp can have paladins. The word holy means pursuing the ultimate and pursuing the highest.

It’s just that the nature of this profession is biased toward lawful good, because the more chaotic and evil it is, the easier it is to break the oath and lose the sacred power brought by the oath of faith. The paladin essentially relies on his strong faith and the sacred oath he has made. The laws of the world resonate and gain strength. The alignment of the camp to the chaotic side and the evil side shows that this person acts logically, has no restraint, and is selfish, which is contrary to the paladin to a certain extent.

"Stop, recruits, you have a duel to watch." The knight instructor's words caused everyone to stop and interrupted Aaron's train of thought.

bring it on! Aaron muttered silently, and he saluted the black knight Norrington Wilson in front of him. The other party also returned the knight salute, and the two of them stood up together.

"Norrington, you are a good person. You protected your village, but it is far from enough to achieve your goal."

"Aaron, show your skills and let us see if you can wield a sword as well as your father."

"Also, don't be coy, don't worry, as long as you are not in a pretend competition, you will bleed a lot. You are not a noble lady, you are recruits. If you don't bleed on the training ground, you will bleed on the battlefield! "

"start!"

Following the knight instructor's loud shout, Aaron and Norrington assumed the same purple dragon posture at the same time. They rotated around a semicircle, carefully observing their opponents and looking for flaws.

More than a dozen recruits watched the duel together, every pair of eyes full of desire.

Black Knight Norrington was the first to attack. He held the wooden sword with both hands and raised the sword to the sky. He put the hilt of the sword on his shoulder and sprinted fiercely. The blade pointed straight ahead and fell!

Sword power - heavy chop!

How could an apprentice-level paladin master this basic sword skill so well? Aaron was secretly surprised.

However, is the Viscount who has been trained by his family a weak person?

Sheathing the sword, taking a side step, when the blade fell, Aaron had already left Norrington's attack range, and the sword tip circled in the air, heading straight for Norrington's face!

"Tsk!" Sure enough, the dissatisfied squeak of the knight instructor came from his ears. It seemed that he was sorry that Aaron was not defeated by one blow. On the contrary, Norrington, who had exhausted his strength, narrowly managed to hide with his sword. Opened Aaron's jab.

The paladin's steps are messed up!

This time it was Aaron's turn to attack. He lunged forward, rushing forward as fast as lightning. The wooden sword was pointed directly at Norrington's thigh. The paladin who was even more chaotic stepped back again and again, taking a posture to block. .

Seeing that the two swords were about to touch, Aaron immediately changed from stabbing to picking, thrusting straight into the paladin's chest.

Sword power - heavy chop!

Norrington once again launched his combat skills, and this desperate blow forced Aaron to give up the attack and retreat. The Viscount staggered a few steps, narrowed his eyes and looked at the paladin, with a confident expression on his lips. Smile.

As Ferrara said, in low-level battles, unless there is an excellent opportunity or the possibility of ending the battle in one fell swoop, never use your full strength easily, because it will easily tire you out.

Aaron has a weakness compared to Norrington. He can be sure that the opponent's strength attribute is definitely one or two levels higher than his own, so it is stupid to fight with the opponent's strength.

"Son, remember, the way to win is to try to control the rhythm in battle and let the opponent get into your rhythm." Aaron recalled his father's teachings and motioned to continue.

Sure enough, Norrington, who launched two combat skills in a row, actually felt that his shoulder was a little strained and his body was a little tired, but he launched another fierce attack, planning to take down Aaron before his physical strength was exhausted. This time he rushed directly. In the middle, he wanted to win directly with strength, or at least force Aaron to fight him.

As a result, the shameless Aaron rolled away and forced himself away from the paladin. When the wooden sword in the paladin's hand fell from Aaron's side, Aaron, who had already stood up from the ground, threw away the wooden sword and clamped the saint's arm directly. The warrior's wrist, his other hand grabbed the paladin's shoulder, and with all his strength, the two fell down together. After rolling twice in the struggle, Aaron pressed Norrington's body firmly. He held his hand holding the wooden sword behind his back and pressed his knee against his back.

"Beautiful! The last Salian!" the knight instructor clapped his hands: "I declare that in this duel, Aaron Salian wins. Manuel's son, you will have half a roast chicken for lunch today!"

After hearing the instructor's words, Aaron relaxed his movements, stood up, and accepted the applause of the crowd very coquettishly.

Paladin Norrington was still lying on the ground.

"Get up, Norrington, you performed well, but you still made many mistakes." The knight instructor said coldly: "Using brute force blindly will not make you win in the duel..."

"..." Norrington muttered quietly.

"What? Recruit? What are you talking about?" Simeone's attitude immediately became tough: "Speak!"

"Instructor, I think this is a swordsmanship competition between knights, not wrestling in a bar!" Norrington finally couldn't hold it in any longer, and he said angrily: "A qualified knight shouldn't throw it away like he did. The sword in your hand!"

"Did I say this was a swordsmanship test?" Simeone smiled, and the knight instructor asked the recruits around him: "You guys, did I say this was a swordsmanship test?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Norrington, think about it, is this a swordsmanship test?"

Norrington recalled the process, and the paladin also realized that no one seemed to say that this was a sword fight from beginning to end.

"A competition is a competition. You can and must learn to use every part of your body as a weapon. Norrington recruit, the battlefield is not a training ground, and your enemy is not your knight brother. Think about it, your opponent is the earth. Jing is a bugbear and a troll. When you competed with weapons, it stretched out its teeth and bit your neck open. Are you going to protest at this time and say, 'Oh, sir, I thought this was a sword fight'?"

"Are you going to protest, 'Sir, I thought this was a swordsmanship test' when a sinister and cunning jackal popped out a poisoned dart from his wrist guard?"

Knight instructor Simeone’s harsh words made Norrington blush, and at this moment, Aaron came to Norrington, and he took the initiative to extend his hand: “We need to fight with everything we have, brother, to be a cunning enemy. The only thing we have to do is be more cunning than they are trying to use against us."

"You're right, buddy." Norrington held Aaron's hand and stood up. The paladin admitted his failure: "Your skills are very good. The last Salian, you are not a weakling."

"Your Holy Slash is also very powerful, Mr. Wilson." Aaron also smiled: "If possible, I hope we can share your experience in dealing with that owlbear if we have time."

"Of course!" Norrington looked at Aaron's smile, and he felt like a spring breeze in his tired soul.

Charm success!

In this way, Aaron started his recruit training. For a whole week, he trained within the Knights every day.

In the first week, Aaron showed that he was different from others. As a warlock and part-time warrior, he could use one more breath recovery and battle wave during a sufficient rest interval than an ordinary warrior.

Yes, a warrior can only use one breath and one action before a long rest. Because they are not spellcasters and can only control trace amounts of magic elements and rely on the body's instinctive reaction, so after enough rest to heal the body's They couldn't use it again before the chaotic magic elements.

Aaron can use it twice - he is a warlock and a spellcaster after all.

What is quite interesting is that, as his senior, Disma will appear regularly at dinner time every day, and must appear within Aaron's field of vision.

Aaron naturally asked him to have dinner with him, and Disma didn't refuse.

But he never took the initiative to invite Aaron. One time, Aaron didn't come out because the practice time was long. Disma stood next to the training ground and leaned against a rack for drying clothes, and stayed with him until the end of Aaron's training. Saying hello, this guy didn't say a word, turned around and walked towards the auditorium that served as the canteen.

Aaron thought to himself that this senior was also a very interesting person.

This Saturday night, the two of them sat together for dinner again, and Aaron took the initiative to mention something: "Senior, can you ask me something?"

"..." Disma did not answer, but he tapped the table with his spoon to signal Aaron to continue.

"Sir Leonard... where is he?"

"Reynard? He went to take the final test given by the smelly old man." Disma said impatiently, stirring the broth in the bowl with a spoon: "The smelly old man is like this, the requirements of the Knights are It's the same thing, but as long as the smelly old man thinks you are not qualified, you will always be a trainee knight."

"Boy, you must also pay attention. The test of the smelly old man is not easy to complete."
