Chapter 297: The Power of Fans
After hearing the story of this young knight, many wealthy ladies were left in tears.
Has this young man suffered too much?
Living in such a small village, taking care of his sick mother every day, and earning money for school by chopping wood, he finally became a professional, but faced life and death in the dungeon, each time escaping by a hair.
What keeps him going? It is his dream of becoming a knight!
Now, he finally stands on this stage, but he has been eliminated. Does he have to return home in shame, watching his mother leave him?
"Everyone, I do not dare to ask for too much." After the young knight’s speech, the atmosphere became heavy, "I just want to fight once more, to rely on my own hands, on my sword and shield, to strive one last time!"
"Wah wah wah… So sad."
"No, we must bring him back to life."
"For such a dream-filled young man, who else should we bring back to life?"
Many knights below turned pale.
Damn it, you made your situation sound so terrible, how can we respond?
Six young knights spoke in a row, but their speeches were not as touching as that of the young knight before them.
It wasn’t until the very unfortunate female knight appeared yesterday that the atmosphere became much more lively.
"Hello everyone, I am yesterday’s loser." The female knight looked around and said loudly, "I believe everyone saw how I made a fool of myself yesterday, I could even say I was being toyed with…"
"How were you toyed with?"
"I want to play too."
"You look so cool."
"This girl is amazing."
Many people below started to cheer.
"I know many of you look down on me, thinking I am just a pretty face, just a loser. But I won’t accept that! I really won’t accept it!" The female knight took a deep breath and said excitedly, "The person who challenges me is not a commendable knight; he is just a thug!"
"On the battlefield, to kill the enemy and protect your home and country, you can do anything—then I understand, because this is for countless civilians, for this country. Even if you fall into hell, you are still a hero…"
"Pfft, how can that kind of person be called a hero?" one audience member said excitedly.
"Yes, even on the battlefield, a knight should win with honor."
"His actions are tarnishing the knight’s name."
"Sister, don’t be afraid. That person is just a bad person, and we will help you get justice."
The female knight did not pay attention to the audience’s words but continued to speak, "But this is not a battlefield; this is the stage of knightly competition. He uses his advantage as a man to harass me crazily and disturb my mind."
"I admit that I was not mature enough and I was careless. I did not expect that there could be such scum in this kingdom full of knights!"
"I understand what kind of person he is now. I know where his limits are, so please give me a chance to wash away my shame with my sword!"
"I promise I will not lose to him again!"
"I know that at this moment, it is rude to bow and plead for everyone to give me their precious vote to bring me back."
"But I, I only have this chance left. I really want to wash away my shame…" The female knight clenched her fists, bowed, and tears of humiliation appeared in her eyes. "I beg you, even if it means dying by his sword, I do not want to give up this opportunity."
Seeing the female knight so emotional and passionate, Aileen couldn’t help but be moved.
"This girl is a true knight!" Aileen exclaimed. "For the sake of revenge, she lowers her noble head and prays for another chance to fight. I believe even if she dies on the battlefield, she will have no regrets."
Karoso did not make any comments.
He chose not to comment because he could not see the whole situation.
"Oh, this knight indeed faced a great humiliation yesterday," the host announced loudly. "Should we give her a chance to embark on her journey again? That depends on everyone!"
"Revive, revive, she must come back to life!"
"Let her take revenge on that man!"
After that, a big crowd went up to speak, some shared their sad stories, others talked about their dreams, with all kinds of voices.
"Speaking of which, with so many people, will it ever end?" Aileen whispered. "Do we have to continue tomorrow?"
"It won’t take so long…" Karoso replied. "Did you notice most of those who went up are female knights, and many of them are quite good-looking?"
Aileen paused for a moment, realizing he was right.
"Most of the people who give speeches have participated in other competitions. The big competition will give them some exposure, but whether they can seize the chance depends on themselves," Karoso said.
"Really? How can there be so many strange knights?" Aileen exclaimed. "I think not many of them will actually participate!"
"As I’ve said before, true knights are few. Most are adventurers who work as knights, and they are here for the money," Karoso shook his head.
"But if that’s the case…" Aileen blinked. "Is there really no one who didn’t sign up for those strange competitions?"
In the past, she would have doubted it, but since what Karoso said was coming true little by little, she had to believe him.
"There will be some, or else the fairness of the event will be questioned," Karoso said.
Just as Karoso finished speaking, the host called out a regular knight, "Lord Barov, please come to the stage."
For a regular Professional Knight, he is called by his name, and those with titles are addressed as ‘Lord.’
Soon, Barov, who was defeated by Karoso yesterday, walked onto the stage.
He felt a bit awkward and didn’t know what to say.
It was hard for him to ask for such a chance.
But after thinking about it, he remembered it was allowed in the game.
He thought about his teammates and decided to speak up.
"I want to keep fighting," Barov said.
He didn’t mention his own experiences or the terrible situation of his friends.
He felt that sharing this scar was an insult to their brave sacrifice.
After all, they had lost the battle.
Luckily, he didn’t say anything more, as it was a sensitive topic.
It is easy for bad people to take advantage of the fact that the country’s support is not sufficient.
"Okay, Lord Barov has finished speaking." The host never thought Barov would stay; it was just a casual call for two.
Soon, many female fans of Karoso began to take action.
Barov? The defeated foe of our treasure? We must revive him!
He goes further, which makes our Karoso look even stronger.
Also, he was eliminated by Karoso; if we revive him, it can show our generosity, right?
Barov didn’t even realize that his knightly spirit, which he had maintained for so many years, was no match for the fans’ sudden desire to give Karoso a good reputation.
