Chapter 214 - 143: Transmission of Skills and Loyalty

Chapter 214: Chapter 143: Transmission of Skills and Loyalty

Time ticked by.

Before they knew it, over an hour had passed.

For that entire hour, Tony had been peppering Roy with questions like an inquisitive child.

Roy answered every one of his questions.

These included his plans to leave the Knight Continent for the Wizarding World next July, and the fact that he was also "Red-haired" Shanks.

Aside from the secrets he would never reveal to anyone—for instance, that he was a Transmigrator who possessed two Golden Fingers called the Skill Proficiency Panel and Chaos Square, or that he was secretly cultivating All-Type Breathing Techniques—he laid all his other cards on the table for Tony.

After Roy finished answering, it took Tony several minutes to finally calm down.

Though he had long known Roy’s Cultivation Talent was superior to his own, he never imagined it would be to this extent.

Furthermore, his plan to have Roy take over as Clan Leader and inherit the family title had fallen through before it even started.

Roy had made it clear that he was leaving the Knight Continent next July and, at the earliest, wouldn’t be able to return for five years.

Once he had completely composed himself, Tony looked at Roy and said, "Don’t worry about heading out to the Wizarding World. Leave the affairs of the Northern Territory to me. I’ll make sure everything is managed properly and secure the Wesley Clan’s position as the Lord of the North."

Even though he had already experienced the full hardship of managing the Northern Territory, Tony decided to shoulder the burden himself so that such trivial matters wouldn’t hinder Roy’s future.

"The affairs of the Northern Territory are a trivial matter. In a few days, I’ll make the Eldest Prince and his entourage, along with anyone who doesn’t accept you, disappear."

"I’m not skilled at managing territory or leading armies, but killing them poses no difficulty for me whatsoever."

"Also, before I leave for the Wizarding World, I’ll find a way to make you a Golden Great Knight, too."

Roy said calmly.

’Make me a Golden Great Knight, too?’

A look of confusion immediately appeared on Tony’s face. He asked quickly, "I have a chance to become a Golden Great Knight?"

Even though he was only in his twenties, Tony knew his own Cultivation Talent was not outstanding.

For one thing, if he hadn’t switched to the Ice Wolf King Breathing Method that Roy had "personally created," he wouldn’t even be a Peak Knight right now.

"Of course you do!"

"I’m already developing a Secret Technique that will allow you to quickly advance to Golden Great Knight. Once I succeed, it won’t just be you—Catherine and the others will be able to become Golden Great Knights as well."

Roy looked at Tony and spoke with a completely serious expression.

Initially, his plan was to ask the Evil Spirit Cat Clan to look after Tony and the others, just as he had asked Sandru and Catherine to watch over Tony when he answered the Royal Family’s call to arms and went to the Royal Capital.

But after some thought, he dismissed that idea.

Rather than relying on the Evil Spirit Cat Clan, it would be better to find a way for Tony and the others to protect themselves.

As for how to do that, he already had a preliminary plan.

The Transmission of Skills!

He would cultivate an additional Tier Nine Seed and then, through a Transmission of Skills, transfer the Tier Nine Seed representing a Golden Great Knight to Tony and the others!

On the surface, this seemed absolutely impossible.

For a Knight, a Life Seed was practically their heart.

Even someone with multiple Life Seeds would be unwilling to transfer one to another person.

But for Roy, it wasn’t impossible.

First, thanks to the Skill Proficiency Panel, he could cultivate a Perfect Breathing Technique from beginner to Tier Nine in just one week.

Second, after advancing to Legendary Knight, his Fighting Qi would transform from being corporeal to being vitalized.

Finally, and most crucially, he was a Transmigrator who had read wuxia novels.

If he could use his Fighting Qi to imitate the Spirit Rhinoceros Finger, he could certainly imitate the Transmission of Skills from those novels.

Although he couldn’t be certain that his theoretical Transmission of Skills would work, there was no harm in trying.

If it failed, he could always fall back on his original plan and ask the Evil Spirit Cat Clan to watch over Tony and the others.

If anyone other than Roy had said this to him, Tony would have thought they were insane.

But coming from Roy, he believed it without a moment’s hesitation.

In his eyes, it was only a matter of time before Roy became a Legendary Knight.

Moreover, he believed Roy would become the greatest Legendary Knight in history.

"So, are you planning to publicly reveal that you’re the Dark Night Knight and have advanced to Golden Great Knight?"

Tony asked Roy.

"I don’t plan on letting everyone know that I’m the Dark Night Knight."

"Furthermore, I need you to publicly announce that the Dark Night Knight has left the Laine Kingdom and begun to travel the continent."

Roy said calmly.

Tony’s brow furrowed slightly upon hearing this.

After a few seconds, Tony spoke. "You want to test the loyalty of Ward and the others?"

"Yes!"

Roy nodded.

Although Ward and his men currently showed no signs of betrayal, Roy hadn’t forgotten that they had only submitted because they didn’t want to die at the hands of the Dark Night Knight.

In other words, their submission had not been voluntary.

"Then when should I announce that the Dark Night Knight has left?"

Tony continued to ask.

"Announce it tomorrow."
