Chapter 289 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 289

In the present, Kreise Allman suggests retreating from the Border Guard Fortress to save their lives, but Encrid refuses. Encrid declares that he will not sell his sword for gold like a mercenary, but will instead serve as a Knight, bound by duty and responsibility to protect the weak. This decision solidifies his resolve, despite the physical pain from his injuries. Krais calls the decision foolish, but Encrid agrees, reflecting on his past. A flashback reveals Encrid's time as a cheap guide for a mercenary group working near a swamp village. The mercenary leader, though rough, is shown to be a decent man who cares for his men. During this period, Encrid forms a friendship with a young girl in the village. She shares her dream of traveling the world to find rare herbs, while Encrid reveals his dream is to become a Knight. Their banter is interrupted by the sudden arrival of fifty bandits who descend upon the village in search of rumored jewels, forcing the mercenary leader to make a critical choice to protect the villagers.
