The Amber Sword

Death of the Black Knight

Author: Green Knight - Ryans

Under the bloody night sky, a knight with a full black armor walks between a fractured wall, next to a tall horse like a guardian, behind the knight, and you can see the light black fog coming out of the gap between the vest and the vest.

There was silence all around, and the cries and cries for help just rang out, only occasional crackles in the unburned houses could be heard.

“Ridiculous man, do you think lighting a fire can stop the Dark Knight's raid? It's not the Grey Legion led by the Gurub guy!” The knights stood and looked with satisfaction at the outcome of their battle. Among the dead bodies were men with swords and armor, women with plows and even elderly humans and children, but all of them had one common feature - only one wound. “A black knight chosen and trained by himself and Captain Tazer, after more than a dozen battle screenings, ‘Poison Tooth’ seems a little wasted in such a place! ”

“Liquor Luther?” As the footsteps behind him rang, the knight did not turn back and asked directly, sounding a little dull and low.

“Yes, General Ryans.” A black knight with a bloody rose embroidered on his shoulder stepped out of the darkness and answered immediately.

“How was the war? ”

“Thirty people participated in this Battle of 'Poison Tooth' and 324 were cut off, of whom 37 were combatants, and we lost 0. ”

“Fine, where's Luxembourg? ”

“There is no sign of troop contribution at this time. ”

“Then let the team in charge of the ambush retreat, as the 'goddess of martial arts' is really breathtaking. ”

“What about that thing? ”

“As ordered by the General, a few were released west and north, but the General, why keep alive again, let Lord Intalon know, it is time to punish the General again”

“He won't. ”

“But... ”

“Liquor Luther, what is our goal?” As always, the low voice reveals a dignified momentum, and Likulud knows that the Deputy Head of Mission is a little angry.

“Take Luxembourg and cut Brando's supply!” To counteract the pressure felt on him, Likulud walked to the Deputy Head of Mission and said with excitement.

“Just understand. Upon hearing a reasonably satisfactory answer, Ryans continued:" The remnants of Luxembourg's forces are now sustained by the prestige of the individual 'goddess of martial arts'. As long as she continues to ignore our actions, humanity will lose faith in the glory of the Goddess of Martial Arts and it will be easy to clap down on Luxembourg. ”

“But there is no need to deliberately leave us alive, so that we can continue our 'poisonous teeth' war performance and evaluation...” Liquor Luther is still a little confused.

“Performance and evaluation?” Ryans swept his eyes all over the surrounding bodies, "if it were the total annihilation of such a defenceless village as a result of the war. As for the evaluation, as long as Luxembourg is taken before the next full moon rises, are you afraid of what the other generals will say? ”

“So soon?” Likulud said with some surprise.

“Is that because someone is going to poison us in Luxembourg? ”

“Poison? How can that be possible, and poisoning isn't the practice of the general, isn't it? ”

“The poison called ‘panic’ and ‘rumor’. Ryans watched the blood moon in the sky and continued," The information that comes from scouts is often not well known to the soldiers at the grassroots level because of the control at the top, while the narrative of the fugitive population is easier to spread among the soldiers at the bottom and spreads panic and rumours. Once Luxembourg's soldiers lost their morale, they lost faith in the Goddess of Martial Arts... ”

“Morale, man is a wonderful man, a vice president... Ah," Liquor Luther began to get a little excited, but soon realized he had lost his word.

“Don't worry, Liquor Luther.” Ryans' tone is still that calm.

Before the title "Poison Tooth," he was always called a “defect," and Ryans laughed at himself when he thought about it.

Unlike other Dark Knights, who were not thoroughly baptized by the forces of darkness, who preserved only knowledge and memory, but forgot other memories of being born human beings, who became the pets of the Dragon of Disaster, Ryans retained some memories of his time as a human being, but those memories were vague and had no connection whatsoever.

Perhaps it was Cairn of the Dragon of Disaster, or some of the biggest figures at the top who maintained some interest in the defect of Ryans, who was not disposed of at the time, but was integrated into his contemporaneous Tazer's army, acting as a soldier at the bottom and becoming part of Madara's expansionary tide.

In one battle, Ryans survived, building on his strengths, and then was promoted, finally gaining the approval of his superiors to become deputy leader of the Night Rattlesnake squad as a Dark Knight, while his defect was gradually forgotten. But there was always some defiance against Ryans, who was a "defect”, and he restored those challengers to their primordial power of darkness in an open or private duel.

“When did you start to call yourself Poison Tooth?” While Ryans was thinking, suddenly countless images and messages entered his mind, "Shit, here we go again!” I'm used to this stunning sensation of breaking in, but I still feel very uncomfortable, and unlike usual, the scene is very consistent and the message is very clear.

The stinking stench and bloody smell slowly awakened Ryans, who was dying, as he wanted to understand what had happened.

“Lord Gulob, there are two still alive human cavalry!” An empty voice rang in his ear.

“Poop, where... Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, there's the potential to be a dark knight... Homerion, it looks like we're gonna reward you when we get back. Where's the other one?" Lead the way. "Another thrill sounded in the distance.

“Over here, Lord Gulob," the void said.

“Well, this one's good too... Son of a bitch, isn't this guy dying?” Suddenly the thrill screamed.

I'm alive? Are you dying?] Let this abnormally harsh noise, Ryans finally managed to sort out the intelligence. [Uh, my whole body hurts. Where am I and who am I? Alive? What have I been through? Ah, my head hurts!

“I am very sorry, Lord Gulob, that this man was injured so much that the worst wound was on his chest, that he would have been transformed had he not seen the sudden flame of life beating by this man. Do you want to kill him? ”

Kill? Oh, kill me. You won't feel the pain in your whole body, will you?

“No, no, no, don't kill him yet. This is such an interesting thing to let go of." The thunderous voice hurriedly said, "Homerion, what are you waiting for? Get ready for the Dark Ceremony, the highest kind, I'm going to turn this man into a Dark Knight! ”

“But this man's body can't be baptized by the forces of darkness. Why don't I turn him into a knight of the dead? ”

“I don't need your advice, you just have to get ready! If we succeed, what will happen next? Poop, that's so exciting... ”

With this last laugh, Ryans' consciousness gradually went away.

“Goddamn it, it was that bone and soul guy who did it! Look, next time I see him, I won't cut him to dust!” Ryans, finally recovering from his past memories, couldn't help but curse. “And before that, who was I before that? Who is the person who always appears in his own consciousness? Damn, the intel is far from enough. ”

“General, what's wrong with you?” Seeing the sudden silence of the deputy chief suddenly aroused, and yelling at Likulud, he had to ask, this is the first time he entered "poisonous teeth” to see the deputy chief yell at people, before the deputy chief encountered something, either argue with reason, or speak with a sword, never yell like now.

“Nothing, I thought about the quality of the troops that Haute-Gurobu provided to our regiment too many times. You go down and assemble the horses and get ready to go to the next place.” This is a complete fool to Likulud. When was the last time Gulob provided troops? Five years ago? But since the order has been given, it is still to be executed, in the "Night Rattlesnake”, not listening to military orders is not a joke.

After his subordinates left, Ryans regained his confused mood and was ready to leave, but he heard a faint cry and thought he had heard it wrong, but he felt the past in the direction of crying, and he could indeed feel a faint fire of life.

“A living human? But such mistakes cannot be made by one's own men.” As Ryans thought, looking in the direction of this fire of life, he found a baby wrapped in cloth beneath the body of a woman who, perhaps, wanted to protect her child before she died.

“A human baby? No wonder my men didn't find that the fire of life emitted by this life was too weak.” Ryans whispered and drew his sword from his waist.

Raise your sword, like a blood-sucking sword, under a half-moon night sky with a magical light.

The stab, which should have penetrated the tip of the baby's neck, stagnated before some slightly whitened skin due to the cold!

“What am I hesitating about?” Ryans looks at his hands amazingly “is just a faint fire of life. ”

“Is it easy for me to extinguish the fire of life that is stronger with each other? And now you can't do it?” Ryans keeps asking himself.

“Stop kidding! I'm the rattlesnake's ‘poison tooth’!” With this loud roar, Ryans raised the sword in his hand again, this time chopping it down.

“Shit!” Looking at his sword cut to the ground next to the baby, he cursed again!

“Didn't you just see some of your past as a human being? You can't kill people with your own hands?” As Ryans said, he repeatedly raised his sword - the process of chopping it down, but every sword was chopped to the side of the baby in millimeters.

“Hey... Hey...” Perhaps seeing fun toys swinging around you, the baby stopped crying and laughed.

“Are you laughing at me too? Yeah, Ryans Javier, known as Poison Tooth, can't even kill a baby!” With his sword powerless, Ryans was ready to turn around and cross the horse to leave.

“Either they were eaten by wild dogs or they died of cold starvation.” Looking back again at that faint life on the ground,

“Forget it” suddenly unhooked the long gun on the saddle against the ground was a prick, and then provoked, the cloth bag wrapped around the baby to draw a beautiful trajectory in the air and steadily fell into the hands of the horseman.

“What if Gulob sees...?” Ryans was afraid to go down and tie the baby to his arms with a piece of cloth removed from the cloak behind him.

“Little man, let go of you this time, send you to the human side, and be a knight in the future, and I'll rip your head off myself with these hands."

“The old man's gone. Let's go to Luxembourg!” Ryans stepped down a horse and dusted off in the direction of Luxembourg.

The eastern sky is already filled with fish, looking far away, and Luxembourg's fortress, like a giant beast, can be seen sitting on the banks of the Rhine. Ryans stroked into his arms without a handful, and the baby seemed to sleep perfectly, feeling a faint temperature through the cold guards.

“You don't look like me.” Just as Ryans mocked himself, a crisp vowel rang in his ear. "No, that's you, Ryan. ”

“Who?” Although Ryans was disturbed by what just happened, being a high-ranking dark knight would never be silently approached and undiscovered.

“Oh, has Ryan forgotten me? I'm sad, but no wonder it's been 40 years! Hey, Ryan. Remember that time?” Just as we were searching under Ryans, the sound was ringing again in our ears.

“Promise? What the hell are you talking about? ”

“Ah, I forgot about that, too. Come on, Ryan, open your heart. Antti will remind you. ”

“Ant... Ti, Antti? Ah...” As Ryans chewed the unfamiliar and familiar name repeatedly, a more intense pain spread from the heart to the whole body and his consciousness began to blur... And you can see a formation of black gas spilling out of the armor and melting into the air.

........................

[Ryan, I heard you joined the guard. Congratulations!

Thank you, Antti. This goes further than revitalizing the Javiers! The next step is Jianhun, I heard about Madara...

Javier... family?

[What's the matter? Antti.]

[No, it's okay. By the way, come to my house for dinner today...

....................................

[Ryan, what's going on? Why did Uncle Martin have to get everyone together?]

[Don't panic, it's just Madara's invasion, just stay in Riedenburg for a few days.

But... I'm always upset.]

It's all right, Antti, trust your judgment, and trust me, we at Butch Guard will protect everyone!

.....................................

[Ryan, why, didn't you say it was okay, why everyone died, Uncle Beard next door, Aunt Bakery, and, and, and, that's why!

.....................................

[Sorry, Ryan, I was so excited.]

[Antti, I'm going on patrol with Tazer later. Here you go.]

Isn't this the Javier family's sword? What's the matter, suddenly give me this]

.....................................

“Ha, ha, ha, ha... So it turns out," As the intense pain fades, so does the image of the memory. “What have I done all these years... Inspiring me to be a knight, vowing to protect me... Shit.”

“At least, this kid...” Determined Ryans rolled over and slapped the horse in the neck. "Come on, old man! Let me walk from here on my own.” Always obeying his own horse of war, he stood motionless in defiance of his master's orders. Ryans had to use his darkness to force his old partner to leave.

“Then it's my turn." Looking away at the horses, Ryans turns to Luxembourg.
