As for whether Sylvia regarded the current matter as a game or something else, Leo was not too interested in getting involved. Since it had already been planned, he did not need to ask more questions.

After that, Sylvia and he began to sort out the various items needed to enter the underground ruins until Beauclair Palace officials arrived and notified Sylvia to go to Beauclair Palace to receive the knighthood.

Leo and Sylvia didn't waste any time. After giving some instructions to the people at the station, they followed the officials directly from the Cooper's Gate to the Beauclair Palace. After passing a flat slope and a series of gorgeous buildings, the two were led

Arrive outside a square in the palace garden.

The official and Leo both dismounted, took off their helmets, handed their weapons to the knights next to them, and then followed the official towards the manor.

The few people who took over the weapons from Leo and Sylvia followed behind with their weapons in hand. However, it was obvious that Leo's abyss sword caused the knight holding it to suffer a little. After walking for a while, they already heard

Breathing heavily.

At this moment, many nobles from Toussaint had gathered in the manor. They all heard the news that the duchess was going to be canonized as a Knight of Light, and came to watch the ceremony. When Sylvia and Leo walked into the garden,

, everyone’s eyes fell on them.

There is no doubt that Sylvia is the focus of everyone's attention. The gorgeous shape of the dragon hunter's armor, Sylvia's tall figure and beautiful appearance are enough to attract anyone's attention, and everyone will recognize her immediately.

She is the Knight of Light.

In addition to Sylvia herself, the three knights following Sylvia also attracted much attention, but what everyone looked at was not the knight himself, but the three weapons held in the hands of the knight, which were affected by the lake.

The weapons blessed by the Fairy in the Lake are definitely artifacts, and how many people in the world have seen the artifacts? If the Fairy in the Lake owns a church at this moment, these three weapons will definitely become the sacred objects of the Fairy in the Lake Church and have been used by countless people.

People pay homage.

Compared with Sylvia's attention, Leo's eyes fell much less on him. Those eyes were more curious, doubtful, envious, jealous and vigilant.

Almost everyone who saw Leo at the scene felt why an ordinary-looking person like Leo would be favored by a human saint like Sylvia and become his partner. Compared with Leo himself, everyone was more willing to admire him.

The Abyss Walker armor on Leo's body, after all, is no less gorgeous than the Dragon Hunter armor.

However, there are also two people among these people who are confused. These two people are the two nobles who went to be witnesses yesterday. They clearly felt the invisible power of Leo yesterday, which made them feel endless pressure.

One look at them made them have to lower their heads, not daring to look at him, but now Leo had no invisible aura at all, as if he was a different person.

However, how did they know that after Leo integrated the crystal magic book into his body in the morning, the life suppression of the higher life form that was originally uncontrollable began to gradually return to control, so that he can now restrain his advanced life form.

It will no longer affect others.

But even so, there are still people who can feel Leo's danger. Most of these people are vacationing nobles from the Nilfgaard Empire. They are also soldiers, and they can feel the strong bloody smell on Leo's body.

So they looked at Leo with vigilance.

The group of people soon came to the square platform of the garden, which was rebuilt from the ruins of the Elf Kingdom. There were a large number of elven-style reliefs on the stone pillars around the square. In the middle of the square, the duchess stood there, surrounded by pottery.

On the other side are the core nobles of Toussaint, and there are several knights in armor. Judging from the decorations on their bodies, we can tell that they should be the leaders of the wandering knights in Toussaint.

For the leaders of these wandering knights, they hope that a new knight will emerge, because that means another piece of the already fixed cake will have to be divided, which is something no one wants to see.

It's not like they didn't want to stop all this, but when they heard about the number of bandits and monsters who died in the hands of Sylvia and Leo, and heard that many knights had gathered in Sylvia in just a few days,

After being surrounded, they didn't dare to do anything. They could only watch quietly as Sylvia gained the honor, status and identity that they had worked hard for many years to achieve in such a short period of time.

If Sylvia had not gone to Lake Serawe, these people might have had a chance to stop the canonization ceremony. They could have encouraged the nobles they supported to use Sylvia and Leo's origins as unknown. There is no law in the world.

The country of Lan and other reasons came to prevent the canonization of the duchess.

But now Sylvia has not only completed the baptism of the five virtues of knighthood, but has also received the blessing of the Fairy of the Lake. Opposing her to become a knight is opposing the Fairy of the Lake and opposing the entire basic code of knights. This is almost the same as peace.

The entire knight class has become hostile, and no noble with a little bit of brain would do such a stupid thing.

The leaders of these wandering knights regarded Sylvia as their enemy, but Sylvia and Leo regarded these people as nothing, and did not even have time to look at them.

After arriving at the square, both Leo and Sylvia's eyes fell on the Duchess Anna Henrietta, and they took a look at the Archduchess of Toussaint who had been famous for a long time but had just met.

At first glance, both Sylvia and Leo would feel that the other person is just a vase. Her long brown hair is combed into a high bun with a crown on it. Her beautiful face makes her look less beautiful.

She gained some majesty and wore a gorgeous yet sexy palace costume, making her easily become the focus of everyone.

However, if the Duchess' ability is judged only by her appearance, then those who underestimate her will eventually become the cornerstone of her throne. This has been proven more than once in the past.

When her husband was in power, the Grand Duchess was able to hold some rights and fight against her husband. Even if the affair was discovered by her husband, she was not punished in the end, and her husband could only take advantage of her lover.

Dandelion vented his anger and said some cruel words that were impossible to achieve.

After her husband's death, after she became the ruler of Toussaint, she was able to quickly gather power, control the country, maintain a close relationship with the Nilfgaard Empire, and obtain privileges that other vassal states did not have.

It can be seen that her political skills are extremely clever, at least much better than those sorceresses in the northern countries who are keen on power.

After arriving at the square, Leo did not enter the square, but stopped at the edge of the square, letting Sylvia walk to the Duchess alone.

While the attendants at the side were preparing the items needed for the ceremony, the duchess took Sylvia and chatted with her very cordially. Because it was a public place, the content of the conversation was not too deep, and it was mostly about happy things.

Sylvia's arrival, words of gratitude for what Sylvia has done, etc., do not have much substantive content.

After that, the ceremony began. The duchess said some ceremonial words, and then asked a few questions that must be asked in the ceremony, such as whether to follow the five virtues of knights for life. Then she took the sword from the attendant and left them on the Hill.

Via clicked on her shoulders, and then named Sylvia a Knight of Toussaint.

After the duchess's canonization was announced, everyone present was stunned. They never thought that the duchess would be canonized as a knight of Toussaint.

Although the difference between being a knight and being a knight of Toussaint is just a place name, the connotation is hugely different.

Being canonized as a knight only provides a person with a knight certificate, but being canonized as a knight of Toussaint is equivalent to giving a title, but it is still named after the principality of Toussaint, which means that the moment the knight certificate is obtained

, Sylvia also obtained the title of the Duke of Toussaint, even the lowest knighthood, which was unbelievable to anyone present.

Although it is just a low-level title, for some people, it is a lifelong goal. As a foreigner, Sylvia has only been in Toussaint for about a month and already has a noble title. This makes those people

The hearts of those who were still struggling, especially the leaders of the Wandering Knights, were instantly filled with jealousy and resentment. They believed that Sylvia had taken away the title that should have belonged to them, and the eyes they looked at Sylvia were full of jealousy and resentment.

After losing their resentment, it looks like they will do something next.

The changes in the attitudes of the people around them were naturally noticed by Leo and Sylvia, but they didn't pay attention to all this. Instead, they looked at the kind-faced duchess with deep meaning.

There was almost no need to think too much. Both of them knew that all this must have been done deliberately by the duchess. As for why, it is not difficult to guess. I am afraid that the power of the wandering knights has become too great, threatening the status of the duchess.

, she is borrowing Sylvia's hand to clean up those disobedient wandering knights.

Leo and Sylvia are not disgusted with this. Both sides are getting what they need. If Sylvia forms the Knights and the Church of the Lady of the Lake, it will not be enough to exterminate the bandits and clean up the monsters.

, it requires some substantive and shocking achievements, and Toussaint is not Nilfgaard. There are not many disputes with the outside world. Since there are no disputes with the outside world, it is inevitable to start from the inside.

In fact, even if the Duchess does not canonize Sylvia as a Knight of Toussaint, Sylvia will definitely attack several other wandering knights. At least two wandering knights must be eliminated before she can accumulate enough prestige.

, when establishing a church, you will encounter the least resistance. Sylvia also mentioned this to Leo before, and it is part of her plan.

And now that Sylvia has obtained the title of Knight of Toussaint, and with the duchess's acquiescence, what she has to do will become smoother. Now what she needs to consider is how to reduce the casualties to

At the lowest level, how to get maximum support from the Duchess, how to prevent yourself from becoming an outcast later, etc.

After the canonization ceremony, the people in the garden dispersed one after another, and the duchess led Sylvia to a small villa in the garden. It seemed that she had something to discuss with Sylvia, and Fu was also passing through.

Lingela Vigo and several of the Duchess's right-hand men.

Leo did not go there, but casually walked around the garden and ate some food.

At this time, a man walked up to Leo and said, "Hello, Mr. Leo!"

Leo turned around and looked at this person, or should not say a person, it would be more appropriate to call him a vampire.

I saw this vampire with black hair, a thin face, and handsome appearance. He was dressed in a long black suit, which formed a sharp contrast with the gorgeously dressed nobles around him.

However, compared to the appearance of this vampire, Leo is more concerned about the opponent's strength. From the information sensed by the spiritual network, it is not difficult to judge that this vampire is more powerful than Regier. As for how much stronger it is, it is impossible to judge, because

The opponent's power does not come from energy, but from blood. However, Leo judged based on his current understanding of the power of blood that the vampire in front of him should have evolved to a level higher than Regiel.

"Hello!" Leo nodded while exploring the other party's situation, and responded: "Excuse me, your Excellency..."

"Dylaf van der Eretin, Regil's friend." The vampire said calmly.

Leo asked again: "Why did you come to me?"

Dettlaff said in a deep voice: "I hope that when you explore the underground ruins of the Elf Kingdom, you will not harm the children living there. They are just unwilling to come into contact with people and have not done anything harmful to people."

Obviously, the children Dettlaff was talking about should be those completely mutated vampires living underground.

Leo didn't think much about it and said casually: "I can promise not to take the initiative to hurt them, but only if they don't provoke me."

The look on Dettlaff's face turned slightly gloomy, and he frowned. It was obvious that Leo's answer was not what he wanted.

However, he didn't force anything more. He saluted Leo and turned around to leave.

"It seems that those mutated vampires are not unchecked." Leo looked at the back of Dettlaff as he left, and felt faintly in his heart that Dettlaff might become a big disaster in the future.

The reason why Leo has such a judgment is because Dettlaff's own strength and the mutant vampires he controls are like an unstable bomb. At this time, Dettlaff may still be able to maintain a close attitude towards ordinary people. Once because of
