Summoning the Holy Sword

It was the third morning when Rhode opened his eyes.

The mercenaries of the Purple Lily Guild arrived and escorted everyone to Eagle City while some of them stayed behind to gather evidence regarding the Undead Legion. After arriving at Eagle City, Rhode handed over the Bone List to the Battle Angel Army stationed there and they found an inn for their accommodation. The accumulated fatigue in them was over the roof as Rhode plunged straight into the pillow and fell into dreamland for a whole two day and nights. On the third morning, the gentle sun rays spilled through his window and woke him up from his deep sleep.

Rhode felt well rested and stepped towards the window after having a change of clothes.

Eagle City was a flourishing city. However, Rhode didn’t have the time to admire this city because the instant they entered, they were occupied with reporting matters about the Bone List and the Undead Legion. Furthermore, Rhode was so severely exhausted that all his steps felt as light as feathers. As for the scenery in the Eagle City, he didn’t have the time to care.

As a Northern city, Eagle City used to be a military fortress. Even though they had expanded, the entire style of this city was still filled with distinct military designs. The streets were clean and the buildings were strictly and uniformly distributed. Even though this city lacked the elaborate and gorgeous features of Northern cities, it had its barbarous sense of beauty. Looking from afar, one could see the green grassland beyond the walls, which offered a beautiful view.

“Phew…” After gazing afar at the scenery, Rhode took in a deep breath and shook his head before leaving his room.

“Ah, Leader. Good morning. You’re finally awake?” As Rhode entered the dining hall, Anne waved as she leaned back in her chair with a hot bun in her hand. Of course, Rhode chose to ignore the 40 to 50 plates stacked on the table.

“How are you feeling, Master?” Gillian sat beside Anne, sipping on her tea like an elegant lady, savoring the aroma of the tea.

“I’m alright, still a little tired. But that’s not much of a problem.” Rhode cocked his head at an angle and gazed at both of them. “How are you two doing?”

However, this doubt only lasted a few seconds in Natalya’s head as she smiled without expressing her thoughts. Rhode was filled with anticipation as he received the box. In the game, players would receive a list of equipment after handing in the Bone List and although the list of equipment wasn’t necessarily powerful, all of them were rare and one of a kind. Furthermore, it was the generous Royal Highness Lydia who was rewarding him. So… What would it be?

Rhode opened the lid slowly and his eyes widened after recognizing the item in the box.

A pair of extraordinarily stunning, delicate daggers laid within. Their white, flawless sharp blades were 60cm in length, shimmering in hallucinatory glow under the bright sunlight. Gold and silver lining studded the hilt, crafting two beautiful flowers. As Rhode tilted the daggers, he observed a line of sacred, unadorned text carved on the blade tips. For unknown reasons, Rhode felt strangely familiar with this pair of daggers.

At this moment, he felt a burst of emotions emerging from the bottom of his heart.
