I Have a Dragon in My Body - Chapter 30
Chapter 30: Night Talk in the Starry Sky
After roughly understanding Mark’s identity, Carter no longer hid it. After all, the other party had already told him such a private matter.
“Would you like to hear my story?”
Mark turned his head and extended his hand in an inviting gesture, “I’m very willing to be a listener!”
“I’ve been born into a noble family. I had a great life!”
“But because my mother was an ordinary person, she was ostracized at home.”
“When I was eight, my mother could no longer take it!”
“After attending my mother’s funeral, I left my father’s manor and came to the orphanage alone.”
“Then, through the introduction of the priests in the orphanage, I entered the Holy Court to undergo Knight training!”
“I’ve learned the seven virtues since I was young. Chastity, diligence, charity, humility, patience, temperance, and kindness.
.
“It’s so that I will not grow up to be like my father!”
“After I became an adult and became a Paladin, my father found me and confessed his sins!”
“But because of my mother, I could not forgive him. In the end, the Holy Court expelled me because I was not forgiving enough.”
“Then, I became a wandering Knight. When I was constantly carrying out missions in the wilderness, the Academy Head discovered me and recruited me into the academy!”
“I really wish that I had a father like yours who can teach me to be as powerful as you!”
After hearing what Carter said, Mark was very surprised. While Mark had his own desire for a mother, the other party felt that he had the ideal father.
“Perhaps this is fate!” Mark could not help but sigh.
Hearing this, Carter turned and looked at him in surprise.
He had not expected Mark to be so mature. He was not as confused as he was!
From Mark, he saw the characteristics that all Knights should possess.
He could not help but look up into the distant starry sky and pray that he would also have such a powerful mindset.
‘Perhaps I was wrong from the beginning!’
“The seven virtues were not meant to be inside me from the start!”
“Instead, I have to move closer to them as I grow!”
As they stood there in silence, the weak and young Renae came up the side stairs.
Before coming up, she had heard both of them talking, so she was conflicted about whether to come up or not.
Therefore, she waited at the staircase until the two of them were done talking before she walked out.
“I’m sorry to disturb you!”
The two of them turned to look at Renae
Carter: “You’re not asleep yet? It’s not good for a girl’s skin if you sleep so late!”
Hearing this joke, Renae could not help but take it seriously, “Really?”
“Ah! I’ll go back to sleep now!”
Seeing Renae descend the stairs in a panic, the two could not help but laugh.
After she returned, Mark directly jumped onto the highest tower on the city wall and sat there to meditate.
Carter, on the other hand, sat down and prayed. The two of them sat from late at night until dawn.
As soon as dawn broke, Senforia woke.
Looking up, she saw that Nelson was no longer on the bed. Thus, she woke Renae up.
After all, only the two of them were girls in this camp, so women naturally had to look after each other.
“Renae, it’s getting late. Get up!”
Hearing the shout, Renae sat up.
“Morning, Senforia.”
The first thing the two of them did after waking up was to find their teammates.
Out of the camp, they found three men with naked upper bodies engaging in an intense training competition at the entrance of the camp.
As the strongest brawler, Nelson could not lose to Mark and Carter in endurance.
Therefore, he forced himself to keep up with the two of them.
Seeing this, Senforia immediately shouted at the three sweating people, “You should stop!”
“We’re the main force today. You’re wasting our energy here. When the time comes, if one of us gets injured, you have to take responsibility!”
Hearing the reprimand, the three of them immediately stood up and stopped the training.
Nelson could not help but slap the back of his head with his large hand, “That’s right! Our team is the main force today, now is not the time to waste our strength!”
“We’ll decide the outcome of this battle after we return!”
The two others nodded in agreement.
Then, the three of them quickly brought their clothes and equipment to the temporary bathhouse in the camp to bathe!
It was seven in the morning after breakfast.
At this moment, the five-man team led by Mark was ready and went to the main group.
The general of the city stronghold looked at the five of them and could not help but have a headache.
At first, he had no idea that Senforia was on this team. Now that he saw it, his head hurt.
‘I’m sending the third princess to the battlefield, and she’s in the vanguard group. What will I do if something happens to her?’
However, the military order had been issued, and there was no room for change. He turned to look at Nelson Ashborne, calming down!
As early as yesterday, the Shadow Guard had come to the command center and specifically instructed them not to worry about Senforia’s identity.
This time, the Emperor had given the absolute order not to interfere with Senforia’s growth.
If she was not in a hopeless situation, they would not be allowed to help.
For this matter, the Emperor even took out the Empire’s divine equipment and gave it to the Shadow Guard to use at the appropriate time.
However, as the general of the Northwest Border, Stuart Walker did not know about this.
Therefore, he was very concerned about Senforia’s arrangements!
After the entire army gathered, Mark charged forward using the carriage to open the way at the front of the army. When the five of them charged forward, they directly plunged into the beast horde.
After stopping the carriage, the two Mages followed the plan and stood in the middle of the group.
At the front was actually Carter, who was wearing Knight armor, holding a single-handed sword and shield.
In order to cater to the team and protect the two weakest teammates behind him, he directly sacrificed his combat ability and became a Guardian Knight!
Mark and Nelson were at the left and right of the team.
As the main attackers, they had to kill the surrounding enemies.
Lastly, there was Senforia in the middle, mainly dealing daMage. She had to constantly find opportunities to unleash a wide range of magic to deal the greatest damage to the dense horde at the front.
The battle began. The weak-looking Renae raised her magic staff and released support magic.
In the five-person team, everyone’s body kept flashing with various colors. Within minutes, everyone was enhanced by countless support spells!
After casting the spells, Renae did not even gasp, showing how strong her willpower was!
