The Popang Empire, the imperial capital Visbat.

Because he was loved by Emperor Nicholas, the second princess Triste Wells was fortunate to live in the Royal Lakeside Garden where only favored people were qualified to live.

That afternoon, the Rising Sun Knight received a summon from Triste and rushed over to meet him.

With permission, the Rising Sun Knight entered the room, performed a knightly salute in front of Trister, and asked respectfully: "Your Highness, I wonder what you are going to call me over?"

"The Rising Sun Knight."

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Triste turned his head and looked over, and said, "As my guardian knight, you have been with me for several years and have always been very conscientious. I am quite satisfied with your performance."

I haven't made any great achievements recently, so why have I been praised for no reason?

Although the Rising Knight felt a little confused, he remained calm on the surface and responded: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your approval. The members of the Knights and I will always be loyal to you and fight for you."

"very good."

Triste sat down slightly and continued, "I called you here today because I had an extremely important task to you."

An extremely important task?

Hearing this, the Rising Knight quickly knelt down on one knee and said with a serious expression: "Please give me instructions from His Royal Highness the Princess, I will lead the Knights to complete the tasks you have delivered."

"That's it." Triste slowly said the content of the mission, "There is a village called Bran Village to the south of the imperial capital, which is being harassed by monsters. I want to send you to attack the monsters that destroy crops."

After listening to the mission content, the Rising Sun Knight couldn't help but frown, as if he was a little puzzled.

Just this? Defeat monsters? Isn’t this an ordinary combat mission? It’s not an extremely important mission? Isn’t it better to issue entrusted tasks to the Adventurers Guild and hand them over to the Adventurers to do it? Let the Knights do such a thing, which will cause some identity loss.

Of course, Trister could see the other party’s discomfort and then explained.

"Since we arrived at the Popang Empire last year, we have been enjoying the benefits given to us by Emperor Nicholas and doing nothing all day long. I think this is not good, so I want to send your Knights to fight against monsters, which can be regarded as repaying the empire's favor for us and bringing the relationship between the two sides closer. This is very important, do you understand?"

So that's it. The Rising Sun Knight accepted the explanation given by Trister and immediately took on the task.

"I understand, Your Highness, Princess, I will immediately lead the Knights to Bran Village to attack the monsters."

After saying that, the Rising Sun Knight stood up and was about to leave, but Triste raised his hand and called in time.

"Wait a moment."

"What else is there? Your Highness, Princess." asked the Sun Rising Knight.

"It's getting late, so you can set off tomorrow." Triste put his hand down, "I will send someone to deliver you a delicious meal tonight, just treat it as a reward and enjoy it."

"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess." The Rising Sun Knight thanked.

That night, when he heard that His Royal Highness the Princess was going to bring delicious food, the members of the Knights gathered together and waited with anticipation.

Before we could wait too long, more than a dozen servants from His Royal Highness the Princess brought tonight's dinner, and each table was filled with ease.

Seeing the table full of delicious food, the knights couldn't wait to open the lid and see what was delicious inside.

"Oh! Tomahawk Steak, my favorite!"

"Wow! There is also roast chicken, it's so fragrant!"

"So many big fish and meat, and wine! Aren't we going to fight against monsters tomorrow? His Royal Highness actually brought us wine, aren't we afraid that we will get drunk and go to bed late?"

"What if he has so many delicious foods, of course he needs to drink with wine to enjoy it. If you don't drink it, I'll drink it for you."

"Get out! Don't try to grab my wine!"

In the face of food, the knights didn't care about their faces and just let go of their hands and feet to eat and drink. There were even cases of different tables competing for each other, and the scene was very lively.

Looking at the gang of nonsense guys in front of him, the Rising Sun Knight shook his head helplessly, turned a blind eye to it, and picked up the knife and fork and ate the steak on the plate.

However, not long after, a knight became sleepy and yawned a big yawn.

"Ah-What's going on? Am I drunk too much? So sleepy..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell asleep on the table.

The teammates on the side saw it and immediately laughed: "Hahaha-- you guy, you have a poor alcohol tolerance... Hey? Why? I'm so sleepy, no..."

Before he finished speaking, he couldn't stand the strong sleepiness and then fell down.

The knights present fell one after another, some lay on the table, some leaned their heads against the back of the chair, and some fell to the ground, all falling asleep.

Not good! There is something wrong with the dinner tonight!

Suddenly he noticed something was wrong. When the Rising Sun Knight was about to stand up, a feeling of sleepiness quickly came.

He quickly pinched his left forearm with his right hand, trying to use pain to relieve his sleepiness and keep himself awake.

Unfortunately, everything the Rising Sun Knight did was futile, and he couldn't bear it in the end and fell to the ground.

Before his consciousness completely dissipated, he vaguely heard the voice of the servants on His Highness the Princess' side.

"Come on, bring all these experimental items."

...

When the Rising Sun Knight woke up, he found himself imprisoned in a dark and narrow dungeon, his things had been searched for a long time, his hands and feet were tied up with ropes, and he could not move.

There were two knights in the same cell as him. They were still lying on the ground and sleeping soundly. They probably had eaten too much and the effect of the medicine had not yet passed.

Then, the Rising Sun Knight stretched his neck and looked around, and found that the other knight members in the cell had not yet woken up.

If you only eat less, will you wake up first?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

At this moment, a scream came from the depths of the dungeon, and it ended abruptly after only a while.

What exactly happened inside? What kind of treatment will he be treated later? The Rising Sun Knight becomes more and more scared the more he thinks about it.

After a while, two men in black dragged a body out.

The Rising Sun Knight noticed that the dead man was bleeding from his seven orifices and his face was extremely distorted, as if he had suffered extremely painful torture during his lifetime, and a sense of fear surged into his heart.

Later, an old man wearing a black robe and a strange beard walked out, shook his head with great regret and sighed: "Oh, I failed again, and ordinary people really can't bear it."

Walking over to check the cell, he found that the Rising Sun Knight woke up and showed an ugly smile with only a few teeth left.
