BXBX NOVEL Chapter 59: Blessed Knight 2
With this ability, one entered a state where they temporarily gained the powers of a mighty being unleashing devastation far removed from the capability of their own power and in some rare cases their order.
Despite all this, that wasn\'t even the most incredible thing about a blessed Knight as what truly made them revered and even had Hannah willing to do a bit of sucking up to Blake was that at rare times of meditation, they had an ability called to ascend.
This ascending was different from ascension and was more of the reverse of descent.
With ascend, a knight\'s consciousness would be taken to an otherworldly place where they would come in contact with the foundation of the world and engage in comprehension, a thing which was a necessity for one to break through to the 4th and above orders.
Glancing at him from the corner of her eyes, Hannah felt envious at the fact that her talent paled in comparison to his and most importantly, that despite her children being talents in their own right before the likes of Blake they were chaffs.
Without even needing to think about it, if Ryan the acclaimed best talent of this region of the country was to have a face with Blake, Hannah knew that her son would lose horribly and that in the nearest future, he would one day be bowing to Blake as either his commander of a being of a higher order than him.
"No, I can\'t let this happen."
Hannah\'s husband had always been on about how they needed to toughen their kids because there was still more harshness of the world waiting for them and though Hannah had always been having doubts about his words, now that she saw the likes of Blake, she perfectly understood him.
With just the hilt of his blade, Blake had already proved his identity as a knight, but then he went and made it glow, this telling Hannah that he was a blessed knight and after thinking about it, Hannah could only conclude that he had done this in a moment of innocence the boy just trying to prove his recently gotten identity and she would be right, except that even she could not have imagined that Blake was actually ignorant of the most precious benefits of being a blessed knight after all Felix had died immediately after anointing and blessing him while the people around him were either ignorant of it or assumed he already knew, he was excellently impersonating a blessed knight after all
Taking Blake onto her horse, walking with him in public, caressing his cheek, and having him by her right side, these were not actions done because she felt affection for Blake, but moves done because she wanted Blake to feel affection for her.
Though she was drawing up her plan, a few end goals like Blake transferring his blessing to her son being an extreme one, she had more feasible ones like the marriage between Blake and her daughter, and Blake tutoring her children even her included on comprehensions.
Blake had said he had been a squire from 8 and with that Hannah had easily concluded that he hadn\'t felt much of a parents\' love and what better way to get Blake to serve her than to make him see her as his mother.
"If I could get him to reach the fifth order or even higher, then my children\'s future will be set in stone, though I have to ensure his loyalty is to us first.
I have to quickly hurry up with this mission and return to the family, I\'ll take Blake with me, grandma\'s love is bound to shake his core."
Not glancing at Blake whose mouth had fallen open more than once as he was given a premium breakdown of what he was being forcibly dragged into, Hannah talked and made arrangements with the lieutenant and captains under her, she also drew up a plan for how to drag a gem like Blake to her side, and then when the meeting was done, she stood to her feet.
"The rift is set to appear three hours from now, so in one hour I want all soldiers ready to welcome. The format in which they will appear is unfortunately unknown to us, so we have to be ready to either attack or defend attack, all battle formations should be steady and flexible.
Despite the fact that the enemy has no idea about us and that this is an ambush, I want everyone performing at their best, is that clear?"
"Yes, commander."
The more Blake listened to what was being said, the more he cursed his luck and wondered how his simple desire to find a village, massacre its citizens and carry out his evolution had landed him in a war room.
Lilith\'s mission made Blake know that he might have to face an army at some point, but that didn\'t mean that he had prepared himself for that, with his current strength he couldn\'t even guarantee his life.
Blake was buried in his own world and thoughts when Hannah\'s ending words snapped him back to reality.
"Rachira, Samuel, after this meeting you will follow me to address the conscripted religious soldiers" Hannah said to a female to the left side who had a blue veil on her head, was dressed in long fitting blue robes and had a had a white rosary in her hands which were firmly clasped.
