Rise In Calradia

Chapter 310: : Cavaliers Tournament

The grand banquet in Palavin lasted for four full days. During this time, everyone in the city knew that Swadia had a new earl named von Byron, who occupied a lot of land in the south. People subconsciously believed that the earl must be enjoying the banquet with the king, and chatting with the old earls. They never imagined that Lord Byron had not appeared in the main hall once in the past four days, and the king and other earl lords had nothing. Not embarrassed, just holding a cup for four days in front of an empty seat, with a little ridicule every time.

But the last day of the banquet Byron must be on the court, because today is going to hold a grand knight competition, and the situation is similar to the usual competition, except that all the participants are nobles, and there is only one form of competition. Those poor people were not eligible to enter the venue to watch the game, but the decent citizens in the city were allowed to watch the game with the noble lords. Of course, the premise is that they have paid 4 dinars for the king's tribute.

Before the competition, Byron actually wanted Fattis and the others to participate in the fun, but because Byron himself was an important guest and judge of this competition, his people were not allowed to participate in the competition, but they had a game. The exhibition game is still okay. There are no bets or bonuses in the exhibition match, but participants in the exhibition match can get a special reward-a crown made of celery.

...Byron doesn't know what evil this is, but it is said that this custom has a history of thousands of years. And the celery crown is very practical, you can wear it on your head during the game, wash it and eat it directly after the game. But Byron is dissatisfied with this kind of prize, not because he dislikes cheapness, but because he hates the taste of celery so far.

So Fatis and Eleon attended the exhibition match together, and played as opponents. Matilde was originally qualified, but her riding skills are average, and she prefers to chop off infantry's heads on the ground with an axe on the horse rather than in a military competition. So instead of participating in the competition, she sat in the audience and kept yelling in the Nord dialect that everyone around could not understand.

The exhibition game began, and both Fattis and Eleon wore armors for the game. These heavy plate armors were specially made, and the heavy ones were not suitable for battlefields, and the prices were high. But if it's not for life or death, but for winning, then this thing can protect the lives of users as much as possible. In this kind of competition, even the shields are curved, weakening the power of the **.

The knights of both sides paid tribute to the audience, and then drove their horses to trot towards each other from both sides of the wooden fence. The ** also shakes back and forth like aiming.

The distance between the two sides is constantly getting closer. As companions, they have had close cooperation dozens of times on the battlefield. They have a good understanding of each other's level and fighting habits. In this short period of time, they quickly think about tactics in their hearts. , Thinking about how to break through the opponent's defense.

Finally, the distance between them narrowed to the point where the horses could surpass it in a few seconds. The two of them put down their arms almost at the same time and stabbed each other.

Following the collision between the police and the shield, one fell from the horse, and the other galloped past on his horse. Fatis used his excellent technique to slightly turn his body to the side when Eleon's ** was about to touch him, and let ** follow the shield he lifted from the side of the body, and the body followed the inertia slightly. Leaning, the ** directly hit Eleon's waist, just a little below the position that the shield can protect. **In such a short period of time, with such a big change in angle, the ordinary knight might miss the target, but Fatis perfectly demonstrated his ability to fight immediately and knocked Alain down.

You know, the two of them have tried many times in the south, swords, axes, and maces. They both tried martial arts regardless of whether they were going down immediately. Most of the time it was Eleon who won, but once it comes to * *, Fatis will gain the advantage, just as easily as this game to win Eleon.

The audience began to cheer, and even the king applauded with satisfaction. As one of the guests, Benoit was in tears. As a father, he couldn’t be excited and could not hide his son’s achievements. This kind of emotion, this is the scene he expected to see when Fatis was born, Fatis can follow a master to make contributions, he has waited for this moment for too long. Count Craggs patted him on the shoulder and praised his old friend. After the misfortune, his son not only washed away his sins, but also became his pride.

In this way, under the gaze of thousands of people, Fatis and Elaine boarded the podium and accepted the congratulations from the audience. Byron wore that gorgeous dress and held the celery crown step by step. Before them, the ordinary earl could easily arouse people’s curiosity, and Byron’s gorgeous costumes and the temperament not inferior to other earls in any kingdom soon attracted the attention of the civilians. They praised the earl's clothing and manners, and were surprised by his experience. Byron believes that in the next week, his story will be the favorite of the bards in the Palavin Tavern.

Although the celery laurel is a bit funny ~www.NovelMTL.com~, Fattis still kneels solemnly on one knee so that Byron can wear the laurel for him.

"With the rights granted to me by the king, I declare that you, Fatis Randall, are the champions of the preliminaries of the competition. May the glory be with you!"

The award ceremony ended smoothly, and for Byron and the others, this competitive competition is also over. Because King Harrods changed the tradition once again, when the final result of the competition was decided, the King "intimately" decided to personally award the champion and canonize the newcomer among the contestants as knights.

On the other hand, although the match after the exhibition match is called a formal match, there is no fairness at all. The nobles have been fighting openly and secretly, and the Cavaliers Tournament will naturally be a part of this link. Some knights bought the opponent's attendant and exchanged the opponent's weapon, and some tried to fool the opponent into the alley before participating in the competition and beat him violently. Poisoning horses, bribing the lords to turn a blind eye to their violations, and even bribing their opponents to counterfeit matches. Those who do this kind of thing account for half of all the contestants. This is only Byron knows and can be sure. .

For Byron, the most significant thing about this contest is that at the end of the contest, Earl Craggs announced in public the marriage contract between his daughter and the kingdom’s upstart. This will surely cause an uproar in the aristocracy, but Byron has already taken care of it. Well, no lord will express public dissatisfaction with this matter.
