(Today, the first chapter has been delivered.)
(I've had enough. There are always some fellows who say, "He posted two chapters, you only posted one chapter a day and you have the nerve to ask for votes." This is clearly a two-in-one chapter, but he insists on saying that I only posted one chapter … even if I post a chapter with 9,000 or even 10,000 words, these fellows would still come and spout, "You only posted one chapter" … well, in order to shut these people up, I will follow my old habits and post them separately. Each chapter will be 4K. That way, it will be 'two chapters'! So, please find a new excuse to attack me. Please be creative.)

GOR Chapter 524 Because Of That, Thank You (Part 1)
"That method is …"
Du Wei was just about to ask, but then he saw the expression on Kakarrot's face. It was so firm. The intelligent Du Wei immediately understood what Kakarrot meant. This secret had brought misfortune to his teacher. So, how could Kakarrot be willing to casually tell others about it?
"Why did you participate in this competition?" Du Wei changed the topic.
"I want to become a knight. I want to have status, power, and wealth …" Kakarrot clenched his fists. "That guy, he's the garrison commander. He has power and influence in the area … I-I can't avenge my teacher by myself. So, when I heard that there was an opportunity here, I came. "The notice says that as long as you participate in this competition and enter the top 50, regardless of your status, you will be able to obtain the identity of a Knight! "I need a good identity. Otherwise, as the son of a slave, the first generation of free people, I will never have the chance to stand out. "Also … the champion of the competition can become the Guild Leader of a Knight Guild. Additionally, it will be in the imperial capital. I think, perhaps, this is an opportunity …"
"You want revenge." Du Wei nodded his head. He could see the flames of hatred within Kakarrot's eyes.
"Teacher was killed by that fellow." Kakarrot's eyes suddenly turned red and tears flowed out. "The garrison commander of that place has a grudge against my teacher. That fellow specializes in finding trouble with those retired mercenaries. Usually, retired mercenaries would have a lot of money in their hands after a lifetime of adventuring. That guy had done it many times in the past few days, causing the deaths of many retired mercenaries who lived in seclusion. Moreover, he always framed those people with crimes. According to the laws of the Empire, mercenaries were illegal, so he could use the name of the law to arrest those retired mercenaries and confiscate their property. But later, the Empire's laws were amended, and mercenaries were legal. That commander lost his source of income. But later on, he found out that my teacher used to be a member of the famous Red Snow Mercenary Group. He also found out that the Red Snow Mercenary Group was annihilated in an adventure. That greedy leader seemed to believe that my teacher, as the only survivor, must have taken all the wealth that the Red Snow Mercenary Group had accumulated over the years for himself. So, he set his sights on my teacher … "
"But your teacher doesn't seem to have much money." Du Wei sighed.
"No, he didn't." Kakarrot's face was gloomy. "Back then, Teacher had a falling out with that mercenary group and fought his way out. How could he have gotten the property? All these years, he had been relying on his meager savings to survive. Our lives were very difficult. However, that commander didn't believe it. That greedy guy always thought that my teacher must have secretly buried a large amount of wealth somewhere, so he arranged an operation to murder my teacher. After threatening my teacher twice in the dark to no avail, he sent someone to the tavern where my teacher was drinking and spiked his wine. Then … … he sent a group of guards disguised as commoners … … when my teacher resisted, he was beaten to death by them. That bastard … he finally caught a few drunkards and vagrants from the street and took the blame! "
Kakarrot finally shed tears.
Du Wei knew that there was no need to say anything more now.
He had already walked to Kakarrot's side and looked at the young man. "Your biggest wish is revenge?"
"Yes, I have no other requests except for revenge."
"Good." Du Wei looked awe-inspiring. "I will help you take revenge, but … you know what I want."
Kakarrot raised his eyelids and looked at Du Wei with red eyes. "Sir, if you can help me take revenge, I will tell you that secret … Moreover, my life will be yours!"

In February, outside the imperial capital, some wild flowers with strong vitality had already grown in the wild on both sides of the road. Although it was just the beginning of spring, those persistent wild plants could not wait to show their tenacious vitality.
The small white flowers on the roadside brought a glimmer of light to the passers-by on the road.
In fact, the weather had been quite good since February. The sky was clear, and the sun drove away the last remaining cold of winter. It could be said that this year's spring seemed to have come earlier than in previous years.
Outside the western citadel of the imperial capital, a group of people had just walked out of the citadel's gate. They had stayed in the citadel last night. At this moment, the fully armored Knight and the leading horseman carried the Tulip Family's flag, causing the passers-by and caravans on the road to look at them with respect.
Several large carriages were protected by a group of cavalry in the middle, but the carriage at the front was so luxurious that it was hard to imagine. If not for the fact that everyone knew the Duke of the Tulip Family was in the city right now …. Most people would've thought the one sitting inside the carriage was Du-Wei himself.
Of course, just as resounding as Du Wei's genius, the Duke of the Tulip Family had a reputation of being keen on all kinds of comfort and enjoyment. From this point, many people who worshipped Du Wei's genius strength often had a faint trace of jealousy in their hearts. Other strong people had to go through desperate and bitter training, almost like self-torture to hone themselves. They had to give up all the pleasures of life and live an ascetic life in order to obtain such formidable strength!
But our Duke was a double genius in both magic and martial arts. He was a noble who was keen on fine wine and fine clothes. He liked all the luxurious habits in life … For such a person to be able to cultivate magic and martial arts to such a high level, in addition to being a genius, our Duke's luck must have been blessed by a woman.
This was simply … simply too unreasonable!
Many martial artists thought in their hearts: I train hard for a few hours every day, wake up early and sleep late, but I'm only at rank X. But that Duke, he hugs a beautiful woman, drinks fine wine, sleeps on a soft bed, wears fine clothes, rides a horse, and hunts leisurely. He easily reached the ranks of a high rank martial artist.
If this is not unreasonable, then what is?!
Just look at this carriage! The exquisite wheel hub, the faint magic pattern, the finest wood, and the fine horse pulling the carriage – all of this was just to reduce the bumps of the carriage.
However, the one sitting in the carriage at this moment was, of course, not Du Wei.
Princess Louise leaned against the window, looking at the outline of the imperial city wall in the distance. She was somewhat absent-minded. From the princess' expression, it was clear that she had something on her mind. That restless look in her eyes showed that she was worried about something.
Her Royal Highness, who had been working as a "nurse" in Anglia City for a few months, had no choice but to embark on the road back to the imperial city. After all, she was a princess of the imperial family. Even if she used the excuse of her life to delay, she couldn't stay in Anglia City forever.
And returning to the imperial city … that person …
The princess was holding her heart in worry, looking delicate. At this moment, a knight in silver armor rode his horse to the side of the carriage and gently knocked on the window.
Bang, bang, bang, three crisp sounds.
Louise's spirit was immediately lifted, and her face showed a trace of tenderness. She opened the window and looked at the Knight who was sitting on the horse outside.
"We're almost there." The Knight's voice was a bit hoarse, but when facing the princess, it couldn't help but have a bit of undetectable tenderness.
Hussain sat on the horse and looked at the beautiful face in the carriage. Even his eyes softened a bit.
At this moment, our Paladin was no longer dressed in his usual black robe in the Northwest!
He wore a bright silver Knight armor with a ninth level Knight badge on his chest. (Of course, this badge was bought by Du Wei from Dylon and sent to the Northwest.)
On Hossein's face, the stubble that he had kept for so long had been shaved clean, revealing the contours of his already handsome face. Our Paladin had always been a handsome and cool man. Now that he no longer hid his appearance, he regained some of the elegance of the "Continent's Number One Knight" who was popular with a generation of girls in the imperial city.
The dazzling and gorgeous silver Knight armor, the bright red cloak, the tall and straight posture sitting on the back of the horse, the handsome face, the angular outline … Of course, except for the one eye that felt a bit out of place. However, the little scar under the eye on his face added a bit of sturdiness to his handsomeness!
Wearing such a bright Knight armor again and no longer wearing a black robe all day long, this feeling made Hussain feel that the haze in his heart seemed to have lessened a lot, and his whole person seemed to have walked out of those years of depression.
Moreover, this was the first time he returned to the imperial city since he betrayed the Church!
All of this, naturally, he had to thank Du Wei for.
After Du Wei's tit-for-tat threat with His Majesty the Pope in the corridor behind the arena that day, His Majesty the Pope quickly fulfilled his promise. The next day, the news about Hussain was announced, and quickly spread throughout the empire through the Church's channels across the continent.
The content of the news was very simple. The Church had confirmed that the biggest traitor of the Shrines, Hussain, was dead. The Pope's personal order had canceled the arrest warrant for him. In other words, from the "legal" point of view, Hussain was already a dead man.
Therefore, now, Hussain could walk back under the sun.
"We're almost there." Hussain looked into Princess Louise's eyes, the curve of his mouth was very gentle.
Louise was smiling, and it was obvious that the girl's smile was full of sweetness. She glanced at Paladin, and suddenly her face was dyed with a layer of shyness: "You, are you here to tell me this?"
"No." Hussain's expression was very serious: "I just want to see you."
It was a very simple sentence, and not very passionate, but for this cold man to say such words, Louise was already very satisfied.
After a few months together in Anglia City, Louise had long fallen deeply in love with this unyielding Paladin, this man who would rather break than bend. As for Hussain?
You'll know the answer just by looking at his eyes.
"You … … Do you want to come up and sit for a while?" The Princess shyly invited.
Hussain shook his head: "No need, I just want to see you."
"But I'm a little worried. After all, this is the capital." Princess Louise suddenly felt a little scared: "Your identity … …"
She was a royal princess, so of course she knew a lot of cruel and dirty things in the Shrines. She was very worried that in the capital, a large number of Paladin would suddenly appear, arrest Hussain, and then tie him to the stake … …
"Everything has been resolved." The corners of Hossein's mouth curled up in a mocking smile. "I understand the Church. Since they have already announced my death, it means that this matter has already passed. Even if I appear in front of them now, they won't admit that I'm the 'dead Hussain'. Otherwise, wouldn't they admit that His Majesty the Pope's handwritten order is a joke? Shrines are usually very prideful. Du Wei did a very good job in this matter. "
"I'm very grateful to him." Princess Louise said sincerely: "Do you know? Hussain, when the news came, I could feel that your mood improved a lot … … You finally began to smile. "
At this time, our Paladin, our strong man in his thirties, suddenly showed a rare gentle look on his face. When he smiled, even the sharp corners of his face seemed to soften a lot.
After hesitating for a moment, Hussain looked into the princess' eyes. At this moment, the iceberg in Paladin's eyes had melted: "No, you're wrong. I changed not because of that news … … but because of you. "
Because of you!
