Chapter 582: 582

“This female corpse is from the Fate incident – ‘New Mummy’. After our observation, we believe this corpse will greatly help the development of your body and abilities.”

Given that you still need to go through the final selection process of the knight selection.

We will send the female corpse’s coffin directly to the large cemetery of the Mysterious Department, and you can retrieve it directly after the conference.”

“Thank you, Councilor Metophis.”

Although Han Dong remained calm on the surface, his heart was already in turmoil.

“Due to the sudden incident and the intervention of a hidden test, the grading rules have changed to some extent. The thirteen team leaders need to discuss for a while before they can give the final scores for the knight conference.

First, please go to the rest area, where the ‘Pool of the Sky Gods’ will be opened again for you.”

Han Dong remained silent throughout, and simply walked back to the rest area.

The renewed cheers from the audience were also kept outside by Han Dong.

“Wow … what a big game.”

…

Upon returning to the rest area.

As Han Dong pushed open the iron door of the rest room, the interior turned out to be the ‘interrogation room’ from before where Councilor Metophis had invited Han Dong to discuss candidate issues.

However, inside the interrogation room at this time.

Besides Councilor Metophis, Captain Hugo was also here.

Councilor Metophis’ fist was gently hitting on Hugo’s body, “We agreed to act, and you really hurt me by pinching so hard!”

“Oh… Let’s talk about it later. Nicholas is coming, and you should act more like a councilor.”

This scene made Han Dong, who had just walked in, feel a little awkward.

With more disheveled brown hair than usual, Captain Hugo smiled and approached:

“This Councilor Metophis is my close friend… You are a smart person, and you should understand the current situation.

After meeting you for the first time, I had already determined ‘your humanity’. And so, using Metophis as a connection, I proposed a ‘public performance’.

This act will eliminate all concerns people in the Holy City have about you.

Metophis himself also appreciates you very much and rates your performance during the ‘Big Traitor Incident’ very highly.

The council can also use this to change the definition of ‘people’.

The demon, is the most hated existence for mankind.

If the council allows you to live in the Holy City as a noble knight, once your identity is exposed one day, there will certainly be other rulers in the city who are not satisfied, and some of the Knight Regiments will doubt the ‘execution power’ and ‘decision-making power’ of the ‘council’.

Looking at this vote.

Only eight heads stood on your side, but this is just the personal intention of the heads, and some of the knights under their leadership will definitely not accept it, especially some knights whose relatives and friends have been killed by demons.

In the knight selection, to validate you as a ‘human’ in front of the whole Holy City is the best way for you to get recognition from the whole city.

Of course, thanks to the help of your mentor, if it weren’t for Mr. Black White changing some information for you in advance, there would be some errors in the verification process.

Hmm…Everything went smoothly.

The council’s attitude towards you is the same as mine and your mentor’s.

No matter if it is your behaviour during the ‘Big Traitor Incident’ or your determination to save your partners during the current conference, the council recognizes the existence of your ‘humanity’.

The work that was postponed during this period, needs to be done after you join the Knight Regiment to make up for it.

Also, Councilor Metophis, like you, is proficient in the death attribute. The ‘sub-death space’ this time was created by him. When it comes to matters of death, he may not necessarily understand them less than the Death God.

If you have any questions, you can consult him directly.”

After speaking, Captain Hugo’s hand heavily landed on Han Dong’s shoulder.

Han Dong immediately kneels on one knee, “Thank you Captain Hugo, thank you Councilor Metophis.”

Captain Hugo spoke as if speaking to himself, “Oh…it’s hard to find a hardworking kid and it’s not easy to dig in.”

Han Dong could only respond with an awkward laugh.

…

Ten minutes later.

The five students participating in the final trial have reassembled in the center of the trial field.

“The second round of the finals, the ‘Golden Apple Trial’, has ended!

The team leaders have given their respective comprehensive ratings to the five prospective knights who participated in the trial.”

“‘Just Person’ – Guli. Chalidu is ranked fifth with a comprehensive score: 8.0.”

“‘Hell Boy’ – Sean. Naberis is ranked fourth, with a comprehensive score: 8.3.”

“‘Hundred Beasts’ – Abe. Rhein is ranked third, with a comprehensive score: 8.6.”

“‘Magician’ – Dumps. Martin is ranked second, with a comprehensive score: 9.0.”

“Valen. Nicholas is ranked first, with a comprehensive score: 9.7.”

Hearing these scores, Han Dong could only helplessly chuckle…

At first, he just participated in this Knight Conference with the idea of making the top ten, but he didn’t expect it to turn out like this due to various ‘coincidences’.

However, standing at the top feels pretty good!

“Next, please invite all the students ranked in the top ten to come on stage for the final ‘selection’ of the Knight Conference.”

Mia, who had received special treatment from the witch, had already recovered her basic mobility.

When she re-entered the field and saw Han Dong not far away.

Whoosh…

Tears immediately welled up from her eyes.

Mia learned from the witch that when her life was threatened, the one who rescued her was not the referee or the witch… but Han Dong, who rushed onto the stage at the fastest speed and slapped the homunculus away.

Because her body was still very weak, Mia had a hard time running to Han Dong.

She used all her strength to jump, wrapping her legs around Han Dong’s waist… Her arms tightly hugged ‘her man’ and she refused to let go.

“Woo woo woo… I thought I would never see you again.

Also, while I was resting, I heard from the witch that there was a big issue outside? What’s going on?”

Mia was completely unaware of the operations carried out by Captain Hugo and the council.

“It’s nothing… it’s just that Abe and I were beaten up.”

“Who! Who dared to hit you!”

At this time, Han Dong suddenly patted Mia on the head, “It’s okay, when the Conference is over… I’ll take you out of the city.”

Fearing Han Dong’s tactics, Mia, although overjoyed with his response, couldn’t help but cautiously press:

“It’s just me, right? We’re just going to be alone, and you won’t ask me to fight monsters, will you?”

“No, just the two of us. We’ll stay in the manor for a few days, and no one will disturb us.”

“I…”

Already very weak, Mia was so excited when she heard the answer she had been waiting for for three years. Overcome with ecstasy, she blacked out again…

With the arrival of the medical personnel, Mia begins to receive emergency treatment.

Han Dong looks up again at the audience, his eyes landing on the black crow resting on the shoulder of the Great Plague Chief.

“Thank you, teacher…”
