We approached the main road.
K: "The gate's up that road."
J: "Care to make it interesting?"
K: "Oh, what do you have in mind?"
J: "A race t-"
K: "No."
J: "Why not?"
K: "You know damn well why!"
J: "It's not like I'm SUPER fast..."
I stared at him.
J: "What?"
K: "Ugh, nevermind. Oh look there's our nurse!"
J: " Where!?"
K: "Haha, loser."
I ran as fast as I could, but Jax caught up to me.
J: "Hi Kai! Bye Kai!"
K: "Well I tried."
Jax and I were almost at the entrance, but at the same time...
Unknown: "HELP MEEEE! PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU! HAVE MERCY!"
We looked at each other.
J: "Let's check it out."
I nodded.
We followed the source of the screams.
There were lizardmen, who were torturing a couple of citizen.
We immediately rushed to their help
J: "Hey, what do you think you're doing?"
Lizardman#1: "We're just teaching these peasants a lesson on what happens when they step on our territory."
J: "Well how about we teach you all a lesson on what happens when a bunch of bitches that claim already claimed land and hurt our kind."
Lizardman#2: "What can a lowly human like you possibly do to us?"
K: "Heh, I'm glad you asked...Strike forth! Solar slash!"
J: "I summon Thee, grant me the power to defy the laws of physics!"
I hit a great deal of the lizardmen, and Jax brought all of the survivors to safety. I used a healing spell on the ones who were hurt, and we escorted them to a safe location. The other lizardmen ran away.
Survivor#1: "We are very thankful for your kindness, brave knights."
Survivor#2: "Yeah, like super thankful!"
K: "Don't thank us, thank the light."
All of the survivors stared at the sun and started thanking it.
K: "Not in a litteral sense...*sigh* Just make sure to request an escort next time you decide to leave the capital."
Survivor#1: "We will!"
J: "Alright guys, catch ya later!"
Survivors: "Good luck with your adventures!"
J: "They love me."
K: "This is no time to get delusional, kid."
J: "Who you callin' a kid bwo...*hiccup*"
K: "Are you okay?"
J: "I shouwd be the one askin' *hiccup*you! I've nevew fewt*hiccup* any *hiccup*bwetter!"
K: "Hold on, are you drunk?"
J: "Pfff, no. I onwy took a sip of their well known hawd bweer*hiccup*.
K: "Jezus Christ, I can't believe you're about to meet the king and you're already drunk. We literally arrived 5 minutes ago!"
J: "Jeez, Kai*hiccup*, you'we no fun..."
K: "Hold on, let me purify your blood for a sec..."
J: "Noooooo...pwease spawe the awcohow!"
I looked at him with empty eyes.
K: "Where I come from, there's no such thing as mercy..."
J: "NOOOOOOOO!"
K: "I summon Thee, cleanse this believer and forgive his sins."
J: "Well, back to the real world I guess..."
We arrived at the palace where we were greeted by a couple of knights. They led us to the throne room.
Knight: "Bow before your almighty king!"
We did as the knight told us.
King: "Raise your heads, young graduates."
K&J: It is our utmost honor Your Highness, to be invited by a legend and example to all. We will treasure this moment for all eternity."
King: "Hahahaha, my... You two sure sound like treasures to me... I assume the one with the white mantle would be Kai Minase, am I wrong?
K: "Indeed Your Highness, I am Kai Minase, son of Ryoto Minase, and a future high-ranked knight at your full service."
King: "Haha, I like your dedication. But where are my manners? My name is Taman Arina Luascence, the king of Mascythe, an honor meeting the famous light magic user, and you must be Jax Sake."
J: "Finally..."
All the knights gasped, me included.
J: "What?"
K: "Forgive my friend's rudeness, Your Highness. He isn't used to formal meetings."
Taman: "Hahaha, that could be seen as an act of braveness, and no need for formalities, just call me Taman. So tell me, Jax, how's it like, being the fastest person of the kingdom?"
J: "It's awesome! I get to see you slowpokes struggle while I've already past you 10-12 times!"
Taman: "This is just wonderful! A genius who has a rare affinity to light magic and great strength, and an athlete, who defies the laws of physics and could turn the tides in every battle? This is a gift sent from the heavens!"
Knight: "Your Highness, it is time for the dubbing ceremony."
Taman: "Right, it is time for you two to be knighted. On your knees."
K&S: "As you wish."
Taman: "Kai Minase, no, Bright Neptune, I hereby declare you knight of Luascence, and assign you to the Lua League. You will be personally trained by me. Arise and take this insignia as proof of your knighthood. Gifted Serpent, I hereby declare you knight of Luascence, and you will be also assigned to the Lua League. You will be trained by Usain Thunder. Here's your Insignia. I expect great performance from both of you. You are official knights now, isn't that just wonderful?"
K&J: "We are overjoyed to be at your service, Taman."
Taman: "Alright, go meet the rest of the crew. Our hideout is at the top floor of the second building. Your friend Amada will be waiting for you there."
J: "How did he get here so fast?"
K: "Probably because we ran into those lizardmen."
Taman: "Oh, that must've been irritating, lizardmen have been chasing merchants away to the point where our buy&sell rate decreased by 25%. You'll deal with them."
K: "Of course."
Taman: "You are dismissed."
Me and Jax left the throne room. We were so happy we got to be part of the Lua League! And our insignia looked so cool!
J: "High-five!"
K: "I can't believe we did it! Though 'Finally' wasn't very needed."
J: "Well he kept talking about how great you are and all and didn't even grant me one look."
K: "Awww, is someone jealous?
J: "Shut it."
K: "There's the building."
J: "I'd run if I were you."
K: "Why's that?"
J: "Amada is running this way."
K: "Oh shit!"
A: "Come here you piece of unrespectful shit!"
I ran away from Amada, with no success, but we got over it.
Stay tuned for another episode!
