My Cell Prison

Chapter 28: Apprentice Knight

The Royal Knight Academy.

The name of such an organization made Han Dong happy within, which was exactly what he wanted.

With such an organization that systematically targeted the Fate Space, one would be able to intuitively understand and learn the knowledge related to [Mysticism] from within, and take fewer detours.

As such, Han Dong also began to answer questions 'selectively'.

'Evil Spirit Class'

"Four-star difficulty.

As well as the requirement of "surviving for three days" was said, each of the three interviewers in front of them revealed a more or less horrified expression.

They didn't quite understand how a body of Han Dong's caliber could survive such a difficult novice event.

At first, they all thought that Han Dong had passed a one-star or two-star difficulty event.

"Elaborate on the process of your clearance, explaining it at some key turning points."

"Hmm."

Han Dong began by weakening 'Edward' and reducing the significance of his existence as he talked about the event's passage.

Put the key to surviving on the interaction with the 'event characters'.

Emphasize that he triggered the branching event because of proper communication with the event character...drawing closer to the event character and getting through the level with their assistance.

'Draw closer to the event character'

Indeed, it was a great way for newbies to get through their first Fate Space, but it was limited to events below two-star difficulty... monsters in four-star difficulty could easily kill event characters.

Han Dong then explained his reasoning as well as his plan.

This abbreviated Edward's interference, while also leaving out any mention of the Faceless Head, and instead shifted the focus to the 'fire' plan.

Emphasis was placed on being a perfect match with the event characters, trapping the 'fear of fire' evil spirit in a long-designed flame trap at the last minute and holding on to it until the end of the time limit.

As for things like killing the evil spirit, it naturally had to be dispensed with.

If Han Dong, who was frail and had no background, were to speak out, these people would surely guess that Han Dong had some ulterior secret.

If he accidentally let the matter of the 'Faceless Head' leak out, it would be troublesome.

The narration of events was complete.

Firstly, the handsome knight gave his evaluation.

"The event characters have a certain amount of evil transforming power, and it's this that has stopped the evil spirits head-on many times, right?

Consider the 'time limit' and the 'fire-fearing nature' of evil spirits, enhance intimacy with event characters, and escape from the Ascension using a sophisticated plan.

Not bad, very talented."

After saying that, he gave a good rating of '80' on his audit form.

The female interviewer who radiated a holy glow smiled and nodded her head, giving a rating of '73'.

As for the bearded mage who was in charge, he stared at Han Dong's eyes.

"Very good at lying young man... If I'm not mistaken, you should have made full use of the 'death of your teammate' to gain enough time to be safe, right?

Your statement seems perfect, but there is actually a small flaw.

That's the difficulty issue! According to you, you should be able to barely make it through the three star difficulty Fate Event, but at four star difficulty, there's still only a way to die.

However... everyone has their own secrets, so I won't pursue them in detail here. Overall, it's still good."

The bearded mage gave a rating of '71'.

Han Dong didn't know if the rating was high or low, but above the passing line... it shouldn't be that bad.

"When you settle the rewards, do you get the Destiny Card?"

"No."

The matter of the 'Destiny Card' couldn't be said either.

After all, Han Dong was using the rewards he got from the card to strengthen Chen Li, not himself... Once it was told, the prison would be exposed.

The bearded man could not help but sigh.

"What a shame...a four-star malevolent spirit-type event.

You only get a little [Fate Points]. Name your major career choice, it will determine your teaching arrangement in the academy."

"Mystic Studies."

For a moment, the three of them were filled with disappointment.

Of course, it had to do with the trio's majors!

In their eyes, Han Dong was considered the young man with the upper end of the talent spectrum among this year's returnees, but it was a pity that the main profession that he was studying had nothing to do with them.

"Unfortunately, if you choose [Library], I can still give you a little opening."

The bearded mage waved his hand and a wave of heat spread out.

The sparks dissipated.

A metal card that still emitted heat landed in Han Dong's hand.

On the front of the card was drawn the knight's emblem of "two swords crossed over a horse's head", and on the back was drawn the intertwined pattern of the sun and the moon .

"This is the trainee knight's identity card... After three days, take this card and report to the academy."

"Good."

Han Dong returned the way he came, and the Black Rose Knight who had carried him earlier was still waiting.

But this time, this knight spoke.

A magnetic male voice came from beneath the mask, "Welcome to the [National Royal Knight Academy]... where do you live?"

It seems that if you don't pass the interview, you can't go back the way you came....

This knight intended to send Han Dong home after he knew that he had passed the interview.

It was just a bit difficult...arguably the hardest problem Han Dong had ever encountered.

After all, Han Dong hadn't returned home at all after occupying this Nicholas youth's body, and had just walked down the street when his sister found him, heading directly to the festival square due to the timing.

"Well... Please, Sir Knight, just send me to the vicinity of the Central Square. My little sister should still be waiting for me near there."

Han Dong climbed onto his horse with all his might this time.

During the return journey, this knight's attitude changed compared to before, taking the initiative to speak .

"It's hard to imagine a body of your caliber making it through the 'novice event', but at the risk of asking, is the difficulty one star, or two stars?"

"The Four Star Event."

Han Dong thought that these knights had a huge organization to manage them.

Information such as the Four Star Evil Spirit had already been given out during the 'interview' process, there was no need to hide it.

The black war horse stopped violently.

The knight immediately turned his head and took off his black iron mask.

The short black hedgehog hair, brown eye pupils with white skin, and the high nose gave one the feeling of being a mix of Chinese and Western....

Compared to the blond knight leader who had interviewed him before, this Black Rose Knight member was even younger, about twenty-seven years old, with a constant look of determination in his eyes .

"My name is Barton Fergus, graduated from the Knight Academy last year, and currently belong to the Black Rose Knights.

Being able to pass the four-star novice event, as long as you don't die, your future development will definitely not be bad. If you're interested, you can consider joining our "Black Rose Knights" after graduation."

"My name is Nicholas Valen!" Han Dong was a little flattered for a moment and even introduced himself.

Judging from this knight's reaction, passing a four-star novice event should be a great thing.

Not long after, the central square arrived.

After dismounting, Han Dong also quickly found Nina, who was sitting on a bench, in the off-site area... I didn't expect that this 'sister' of his would actually come to the plaza every day to wait for him to return.
