Chapter 597: Chapter 424: Before the Exploration_1
“Sister, is that guy you mentioned really that amazing?”
In a considerably small reception room, a charming female knight, clad in silver light armor and carrying a longsword at her waist, blinked her starry eyes, looking puzzled.
Across from her was Tina, the Blue Rose Knights Commander who had met Leo Ray once before at the auction.
Tina wore a fully-armed silver armor as well, and her exquisite white face displayed an expression of anticipation.
On the other side, seeing the rare excitement on Tina’s face, who was usually known as a cold beauty, the female knight frowned and put the knight’s helmet in her arms on the table beside her.
She continued to ask, “Does a remote low-level noble with no reputation really have that much charm? I’m afraid he’s just a nouveau riche who accidentally inherited his ancestor’s legacy, only knowing how to indulge in a life of extravagance, right?”
At this point, the charming female knight seemed to realize something and widened her eyes, “Maybe that guy is just interested in sister’s beauty and wants to join our Blue Rose Knights!”
“Tia, don’t talk nonsense, or I’ll really get angry. Without Mr. Christopher, we wouldn’t have had the opportunity to explore the relics this time and promise to allocate one-third of the spoils to us. How long do you think the knight squadron could hold on with our current financial situation?”
Hearing this, Tina, the Knights Commander, frowned slightly and spoke to her younger sister, who was several years younger than herself.
“But sister, the exploration hasn’t even started yet, has it? What if it’s just an empty relic? Then we are just providing them with protection for nothing, right?”
On the other side, the female knight named Tia couldn’t help but pout slightly and muttered quietly, “Even if we want to thank them, we should do so after we get the loot.”
“What are you talking about? Without Mr. Christopher, we wouldn’t have even had this opportunity to turn over a new leaf.”
Giving her a light flick on the forehead, Tina continued with a frown, “Also, I’ve said this many times: call me Commander, no matter the occasion, when we’re outside.
If you make the same mistake again, you’ll be punished by cleaning the stables for a month when we get back, and no one can plead for you.”
“I understand, sis… Commander.”
On the other side, the female knight named Tia immediately softened, muttering to herself with a pout, “I really don’t know what kind of love potion my sister has been given.
Later on, I’ll have a good look at the guy who invited our Blue Rose Knights to be their escort and see what’s so great about him.”
Hearing this, the other three Blue Rose Knights in the room couldn’t help but smile.
Tia had great talents and was quite efficient in the Knight Squadron, earning the love of many.
However, when it came to matters concerning Commander Tina, she would become like this – truly a sister-obsessed person.
Just then, a rhythmic knock sounded at the door.
After one of the strong Blue Rose Knights opened the door, Leo Ray and Kelsey appeared at the entrance.
Previously, Leo Ray had invited the two independent Knights Commanders to serve as escorts for this exploration of unknown relics.
So, on the surface, the other main subordinates couldn’t show up.
“Mr. Christopher, you’re here!”
Seeing that it was Leo Ray, Commander Tina immediately greeted him with a polite bow and said, “Thank you, Mr. Christopher, for honoring your promise and inviting our Blue Rose Knights to participate in this expedition to explore the relics!”
After speaking, sensing the extraordinary aura emanating from Leo Ray’s body, Tina’s eyes glimmered with astonishment.
Compared to before, the strength of this young noble had clearly improved!
However, because Leo Ray was wearing a Concealment Ring, Tina, who had a Physical Energy Vortex not much different from Leo Ray’s, couldn’t see his true depth.
Immediately after, while still in astonishment, Tina introduced the other strong members beside her one by one.
Through her introductions, Leo Ray learned that, including Tina, a total of five of the Blue Rose Knights’ strongest members were sent for this mission.
These included Tina herself as Tier 3 Nine-Star, three Tier 3, 5-star Knights Commanders, and Tina’s younger sister Tia, who was the logistical Minister of the Knights and a Tier 3 three-star.
“I see.”
Nodding to each person, Leo Ray’s gaze eventually fell on Tia, who was at the end of the line.
He had seen the other strong Blue Rose Knights at the auction, but Tina’s sister Tia was a new face.
Noticing Leo Ray’s gaze, Tina smiled and hastily added, “Mr. Christopher, Tia was on a mission last time during the auction and couldn’t attend. This time, in order to contribute more, I brought her along.”
After speaking, Tina pulled her sister a step closer and whispered, “Tia, say hello to Mr. Christopher.”
“Greetings, Mr. Christopher.”
On the other side, Tia grumbled reluctantly. Before Leo Ray could respond, she went back to her seat.
Then she muttered quietly, “His own strength is indeed not bad, but there aren’t even any decent strong ones around him. In the end, he’s not that impressive.”
